Hong Kong Express

$8,50 lunch special w soda! Veggie Lo mein $1.50 extra. It’s Chinese take out not sweet green you don’t really customize orders lol and getting your order taken on phone is a no nonsense business. Tender and soft sesame chicken like the way it’s supposed to be. Glad to have this in the neighborhood, reminds me of childhood in Flushing.

Somehow I find myself there at least twice a month. My friends let me order from this fast food venue when we have not much time on our hands. Its clean also and everyone well masked up. Update: Been back there the other day. Looks like they changed the cook. So I decided to try them once more. Totally mediocre. In fact I found a better place just 2 blocks down called Everyday. The better option. Thank me later.

I tried to order General Tso Chicken and asked the lady at the counter if they can make it extra crispy + chopped into little pieces. The lady at the counter straight up refused and kept telling me it comes chopped “pretty small already” and kept refusing even though I was asking nicely and paying for my food lol. She was so rude and dismissive and overall nasty. Lo and behold, I get my food and the chicken is in big massive chunks and barely cooked. Disgustingly soft and still pink on the inside. I don’t understand why they couldn’t just make my food the way I wanted it made if i’m paying for it with my own money. Will never go here again.

Love it. Consistently good. The Mei Fun and bbq ribs are highlights for me. But it’s all good and affordable. Bless them!

I love it here! Its a no frills, take-out forward, cash only spot where the food is consistent and slaps everytime. Also, I’ve seen bad reviews talking about the customer service and I don’t understand why - when I call yes it can be a little rough around the edges but she is always thorough, clear and ready to take your order. I’ll keep coming back!
