Hong Kong Spirit Food - Steamed pork bun, Xiu mai

When I knew I was coming to Anchorage, Alaska, Hong Kong Spirit Food was one of the places I had…read morealready put on my list to try. I finally stopped by on Sunday, and I have to say, my biggest regret is not coming sooner! I ordered the stir-fried noodles with beef and vegetables, Simon fried rice, Xiu Mai dumplings, and beef balls. Everything was delicious! I can honestly say this is some of the best food I've had since arriving in Alaska. This place is definitely a hidden gem. Don't let the location fool you, the food is absolutely worth it. I'm so glad I finally made it here, and I already know it won't be my last visit. If you're in Anchorage and looking for great food, I highly recommend giving Hong Kong Spirit Food a try. You won't be disappointed!

We were very pleased to find this spot on a quick visit to Anchorage. It was a Sunday, so the dim…read moresum menu was available, from which we had the rice noodle roll with shrimp, and sticky rice in lotus leaf. Both were quite good, comparable to what we get in the San Francisco area. We also got the roast duck over rice from the regular menu, two types of egg custard tart, taro boba, and a berry smoothie. All of these were very good, with just a quibble that the rice under the duck was not very freshly cooked. We had not encountered the butter egg custard tart before, it was very good as was the traditional version. The staff was great too, attending to everything cheerfully while doing a very brisk business.

As expected, the restaurant was crowded. After thirty minutes, it was hard to find an available table. Food is ordered at a counter, then a waiter takes it to the table. Portions were large. Fried rice tasted just right. It was piled high and I special ordered it without peas. It was prepared correctly. Five stars! Pot stickers were good. 4 stars. My wife had beef chow fun and that was five stars and the portion was large. Self serve soft drinks are available with unlimited refills. Strongly recommend this for anyone who likes good Chinese food. Our bill with tip was over $60. No sales tax in Anchorage.

My step dad really enjoy his cheese roll which I didn't get to but I dropped about $85 on food. although we had good service I cannot recommend anything I tried other than the wings. My partner liked the bread part of the steam bun but the filing was extremely underwhelming (bland). My mom said the restaurant was really good years ago and it's been recommended to me by someone else too. I can't say the bakery isn't good, but at least the restaurant food was not worth trying I got dumplings, greens (#11), sticky rice (pork), steam bun, Mongolian beef, wings (unseasoned, however crowd favorite), fried wide noodles.

The interior has your normal Asian decor with two Chinese soldier statues greeting you and the entrance. The interior of the Buffett is pretty spacious and open and it has two smaller dinning areas for more privacy. Staff: 3 stars Our server greeted us and sat us quickly and asked for our drinks. She had a "hurried" state of mind but had a friendly smile. Good: 2.5 - 3 Stars With Three separate buffet stations for hot and cold items, it had "ok" selection. Nothing extraordinary. Basic limited sushi selection. They sure loved Philly cheese because I counted four different sushi version with it. Hey, it is easy to make, a great filler to the stomach, and is inexpensive. Great for the business but terrible if you want other sushi varieties. The other stations will have your other basic Asian dishes but nothing to say, "Yummy or Wow"! Again the Buffett is great if you want to fill your tummy and spend time with friends or family members. Price: 2.5 Stars We went on a Sunday, the price was a lot more than expected. Over $30-40 per person. Does that seem reasonable? Not in my book, but it has been a while since I've gone to a buffet. Only reasons we went because some of the other members enjoyed it and no one wanted to cook. Which sounds pretty reasonable to me.

It kept the meat moist as well as adding a delicious twist to the dish. We got chicken fried rice and General Tsao chicken. Both were flavordul dishes I would order again. When finkshed eating we had enough to combine the General Tsao to the rest of my chicken fried rice creating another sweet and savory dish to eat at home! The staff are really friendly and are consistently looking to be of further service. If you're looking for super-tasty Chinese food after a movie or some shopping, swing in and try them out. Round 2 - Food is still amazing, bbq pork was hard to eat because everyone at the table was stealing it! It's so good! This time got the szechuan chicken. Spicy, savory, and super delish! Thanks again Kenny's!

Service was all right - the people were nice enough and the food came in a reasonable amount of time. After a grueling hour+ drive home, it was a disappointment. "LARGE", it seems, means the same amount of protein, with a huge pile of un-sauced lo mein noodles on top. The pieces of meat could have been counted on my fingers, they were so few. It was a real hassle to get to the place, because one of the entrances to the mall was closed on a Saturday, so the traffic was annoying. I kept telling myself I would regret not going, but now I regret going there at all. Maybe I just got a bad order, but it will be difficult to make myself go there again.
