Ive been coming here for 3+ years. The food is always amazing and the service is perfect. It can get pretty busy during peak hours like dinner, but it's worth it. The food here never made me sick and it never tasted funny. Everything comes out pristine and beautiful. The portions are so big that a small eater like me can save this for another meal. The waiters are also attentive and willing to help out -- they hired the right people! I really like the atmosphere this place has. It's perfect for talking and it's a great place to go to after final exams. The waiters help out a lot, but they generally leave you alone unless you raise your hand. It's a great atmosphere read more

HK BBQ House - Beef Chow fun - Cantonese Near Me - Riverside, California

Some of the food we got was good, some was okay. I think Mongolian beef is worth it and personally, I liked the house special fried rice. It was not too loud in there and the place was relatively empty so that was nice. Biggest disappointment was service, because our table ordered chow mein and the waiter brought us chow fun (flat noodles with gravy). When we told him that we ordered chow mein, he told us that what we ordered was chow fun, so I showed him what we ordered on the menu and he said "you wanted lo mein". While I get that, he spent a minute trying to figure out where the item was and couldn't find it. I reviewed pics on here and it seems like other people got the thick yellow noodles for chow mein. Anyway, they replaced it for us but I overheard the waiter tell his manager that we ordered chow fun by accident. The manager then told us something about "our mistake" upon paying, placing blame on us . The manager was nice about it, but we repeatedly told the waiter chow mein and he kept correcting us to chow fun. Also, there is a section of the menu labeled chow mein and a separate page labeled chow fun. I think I know what we ordered. Disappointing. read more

I am now a new regular to this restaurant. Every dish I order here is made with quality and care. Every dish so far has been perfectly seasoned and so fresh My parents and myself are fond of the Yang Chow fried rice and the Ya chow beef with pan fried noodles. I can see why this restaurant did not close during COVID May this restaurant continue to be successful. Also the waiters are nice and attentive and the food comes out fast with a generous portion size. What more can you ask for? read more

The best Chinese food period! They even beat the restaurants back in Gardena where I live. Their food is so tasty!!!! I love their roast duck, crispy pork belly, the house special chow mein Hong Kong style (where the noodles are crispy)! Service is quick and prices are reasonable! Tonight we had take out, and since I don't come here to Riverside that often, now that my studies at UCR is almost over, I made sure I bought extra food to take home. The restaurant is small and homey, but it is a great place to eat. read more

Crispy pork for the win! The pork was very crispy and fresh. Great Hong Kong style staples. The salt n pepper pork chop, noodles, and ribs were great sharing dishes. This casual diner is a wonderful trip not too far from campus. read more

Wonderful food and service! It's a bit busy at lunch time but the atmosphere gives comfortable rather than bustling. The crispy chow mein with beef and clear sauce is the best combination we've tried at this restaurant. Definitely crave this dish from time to time! The crispy squid was a bit off as it wasn't as crispy as we'd hoped and the seasoning was inconsistent. The fried rice it came with was addicting as we continued to sneak bites of it throughout our meal. Always recommend this place as it's some of the best asian cuisine in IE! It consistently has great service and food! read more

10 out of 10!!! Bravo! Didn't expect such authentic Chinese food in Riverside! Everything tastes just like what you would get from a Hong Kong barbecue restaurant, wok flavor and all. It was comfort in four portions. Yes there are three photos because I killed my roast duck wonton noodle. The best wonton noodles I've had in a long time! If you can do the wonton soup right, you can't go wrong! The egg noodles were springy and chewy. The duck was super juicy. How? The bowl was completely empty by the time I thought about taking a pic. Like I licked the bowl clean, soup and all. read more

Racism on queue lines. Staff are bypassing the line to serve Chinese customers ahead of those who arrived earlier.

HK BBQ House is located in University Village off Iowa & University near UCR and the 91/60/215 Interchange. We went for the Roasted Duck w/ Wonton Noodle Soup. The Wontons came filled with Shrimp & Pork, the noodles were tasty, the broth was light and not salty, the broccoli was tender, and the duck was delicious. The duck sauce was the Chef's Kiss and became the star of the table. Flora was very friendly and helpful during the visit. You can tell by the looks and flavors there's magic in the kitchen. read more

Saturday around 1 pm lunch hour was a bit of a wait, understandably anytime during lunch and dinner time whether be weekend or weekdays. Great attentive service we received from the young gentleman server . 3 item BBQ plate combo $22 BBQ pork char siu / roast duck / soy sauce chicken is my go to here , and their wonton soup, this time I opted not to include noodles. Recommend their string beans stir fry , perfectly seasoned. A miss for me today was their shrimp chow fun w/ gravy didn't have much flavor. It was eeehhh . read more

Food is delicious and not pricey, love many of their dishes. My wife and I go there every once a month.

HK BBQ never disappoints us. Authentic, flavorful, my favorite restaurant. Staffs are friendly and attentive all the time. The owner knows us now because we are her regulars. Highly recommended. Everything on the menu is yummy. I always have a hard time to decide what i want because i want everything. read more

A chef friend of mine posted this restaurant several times in social media and I bookmarked it for whenever I was in Riverside. I finally got to try it last weekend and was very impressed. This Cantonese style food is as good as anything you find in San Gabriel Valley. The prices are reasonable. The food is very fresh. It seems they genuinely prepare it after you order. They have a few combos of their barbeque items, such as 2 or 3 meats with rice. I ordered the duck with rice. It is very crispy with the fat nicely rendered and even the rice was so fluffy. There was a bit of Chinese broccoli on the side. The price for duck was about half what I normally see. I ordered the wonton soup and Singapore noodles to go, just to enjoy more of their dishes the next night. You know it's good when I want it two nights in a row. Service is very good and attentive. read more

Located in University Village near UCR, the parking can be a little complicated. The service was fast and friendly. We were greeted and seated fairly quickly and the food didn't take long to come out after we ordered. Honestly, I didn't come in expecting much but for Asian food in Riverside this place is pretty good. We got the honey walnut shrimp with steamed rice and the House chow fun. Both dishes were pretty healthy portions and were really tasty! We split the two dishes between 4 girls and it was enough for us. If I'm ever in Riverside I would definitely come back again. read more

Great food and large portion! Good service. One of my go to place for lunch now. Really like their seafood chow fan (gravy style).

Best Chinese food in Riverside hands down. Food is very authentic and the owner comes all the way from SGV. Service is amazing, and the ambiance feels like a real HK restaurant. Some of the best egg and shrimps ever, but everything is good. This place is good for Chinese people, ABC's, and people who just like Chinese food. Only thing is they're not open on Sundays read more

Want to start by saying it's not the mistake, but the way it was handled that upsets me. I requested no mushroom due to an allergy and it ended up in my dish anyway. It was even listed no mushroom on the receipt and the waitress did her job in listing it as a mushroom allergy. I only got to eat half the dish before I realized there was wood ear mushroom in my eggplant. An honest mistake I understand, but what really upset me and makes me give one star is that they still charged for the dish. I only got to eat half of it AND it had mushroom despite clear instructions from the waitress yet I was still charged at the end of the ordeal even though I couldn't even eat the remaining half. I understand being hesitant if someone ate all of it in case someone is lying for free food... but if I was lying why would I say "no mushroom" when ordering, and why would I only eat half? Instead I only got a 15% discount. It just seems unfair. Only one other time someone gave me a mushroom on accident, but then they didn't charge me. Now I'm $13 down and am starting to have an upset stomach and think I might have a long night ahead of me. We still tipped because it's not the waitress' fault but want it to be known that I'm really disappointed read more

Nice to have Cantonese food in the inland Empire. The BBQ was authentic (as someone who grew up in San Francisco and visits the 626 often). They should open a location in Ontario Ranch area with so many Asian people moving there. read more

You HAVE to try the duck. By far the best place to eat in Riverside. The only downside is I live in Hemet, so I drove 35 minutes to eat there. Worth it! read more

I actually have been here a couple of times to order for take-out and have always found the food to be great. I've gotten the duck and chinese BBQ pork combo and the duck was surprisingly really good. It's hard to find authentic asian food in the IE and I feel like you can definitely tell that this place is authentic. I've had the lemon tea as well (a bit on the sweeter side compared to places I've had in the SGV and HK cafes in Rowland Heights) but still decent if I'm craving it. The only downside is that the food takes quite a bit to come out, even if it's not that busy but I wouldn't remove a star for that. I just think it's most likely pretty fresh. Service is always nice and the lady is sweet and willing to make recommendations, so definitely give this place a shot if you're seeking authentic Hong Kong style food. read more

It has been almost 5 years since the girls attended university in Riverside. We returned for the dedication of the Physician Assistant building and chose to have lunch at HK BBQ House before the ceremony as we were wanting Hong Kong style cafe food and wanted to give a restaurant new to us a try. Parking in the University Village Shopping Center was free. We realized that the restaurant was in the same shopping center as Uncle Chuang from which we had gotten baked goods once. We were greeted upon entering and one of the staff members put together two tables for our party of three. We were given menus, but we had already chosen our items on the drive there and waited for someone to take our order. We ordered the Hong Kong style pineapple bun with butter which comes 2 per order, the triple combo platter with soy sauce chicken, roasted duck, and honey barbeque pork, Hong Kong style roasted crispy pork, Hong Kong style shrimp and pork wonton noodle soup, house special filet mignon cubes, house special string beans, and 2 steamed rice. One of the young ladies ordered a Hong Kong milk tea along with me, while the other had a lemon tea. One of our servers let us know that there were straws on the table when she saw us stirring our milk tea with chopsticks. It has been ages since I have had Hong Kong milk tea. My grandmother would often drink the black tea with condensed milk when she was alive. The buns came out first and were warm. All the meat dishes were tasty and did not require the hoisin sauce that came with them. The skin on the pork was crispy and crunchy. Every bite of food brought pleasure. The same server happily brought us a small bowl with an extra soup spoon so that we could share the soup noodle. Another server provided the red vinegar one of the young ladies wanted with her noodles. The owner/manager saw the young lady struggling to get a portion of noodles in her soup bowl and brought her a pair of scissors to cut the noodles. The string beans had the right amount of red chili flakes to them. We really liked the gai lan in the wonton noodle soup and would have liked to order a whole dish of it as a vegetable dish to go with the roasted meat. The filet mignon was tender and delicate and nicely slivered for the dish. All the customers seemed happy with the food and service. The staff helped one party of guests take a photo as the guests were departing. The place is not too big so one party had to wait a bit for a table as all the tables were full. Another party seemed to be in town for a graduation. We will have to visit again. read more

Food is delicious! Staff is nice & helpful. They do give great portions for the price.

We tried HK Bbq House for the first time yesterday. Popped in for lunch and the place was kinda busy which was a good sign. The staff greeted us kindly when we walked in and the young man who served us was quite helpful and very nice. We tried the roasted duck, chicken, and pork which was yummy, crispy on the outside, moist on the inside and so savory with a hint of five spice. Mongolian beef was bomb, spring rolls were fresh and the Chinese broccoli with garlic sauce was oh so good! For a treat I tried the 7up with salted lemon and hubs got the honey tea with lemon and both were delicious and refreshing. We will be returning to this little gem and bringing our family because it is so good! read more

THE FOOD!!!!! Amazing!!! Been wanting to try this place for a while and finally went and was completely blown away. Definitely recommend the hot and sour soup. Was skeptical about it but the flavor explosion you'll have the first time you try it is crazy. The HK style pork aka char siu is something I always order whenever I go. The wonton soup is something I was surprised with as well seeing as I had been let down with other places quote on quote wonton soup. Their wontons are definitely packed with pork and shrimp and the broth is delicate yet packed with flavor. Something you'd want when you're feeling under the weather. Service is impeccable, even though English isn't the owners first language, they always seem to get the order right. The owner always has a smile on her face and now that I've been there a few times, always greets us as if we are coming into their home. Ambiance is quaint, subtle, showing off their roast duck and pork char siu. Love coming here and recommend giving this place a try. Trust me, you won't regret it. read more
