Hong's Gourmet

Visited Hong's Gourmet on a Friday at noon for lunch, and it was an enjoyable experience. The restaurant had a steady flow of customers but wasn’t overly busy, with plenty of parking despite the bustling location. The upscale, classy ambiance stood out immediately, creating a welcoming vibe, enhanced by Naval Academy memorabilia—a pleasant surprise and nostalgic touch, as both my son and daughter are graduates. A friendly staff member greeted us warmly and seated us promptly. The food was fresh and flavorful, with the salt and pepper crispy eggplant stealing the show—perfectly crispy and delicious. The Mongolian beef was rich and savory, and the Taiwanese fried chicken was equally satisfying. The honey walnut prawns, however, were okay but not to our liking, too sweet, and lacking in flav

Great atmosphere and location with quick, efficient service. Ordered the green onion pancake appetizer and house basil tofu entree which was enough for 2 people as portion size was reasonable.

Beautiful atmosphere, exceptional service, and genuinely authentic c

First time here - we ordered crispy noodle with combo and Mongolian beef - it’s good to see both dishes were generously portioned with meat. As often we see many places cut down the portion. And the taste was authentically good, better than some places in SF Chinatown. The service was good too - when we asked for our leftover to take home - the waitress actually came out and boxed it for us . Will come back here when we come back to this Saratoga downtown .

The food and atmosphere and server were amazing, he was very attentive the service was impeccable Definitely b will be back and worth every penny. Giving this a five star
