Stir Create Your Own Stir-Fry
Michael R.

This review, unlike others is going to be takes more time than it did for two to finish metals. Fitting for the meal from a restaurant whose name consist of the two words I kept saying to each entrée before it was opened, "honey-grow"! Let's start with stirfry. Unless you're desperate and there's absolutely no Chinese restaurant available there is no reason to order stir fry from this chain restaurant, that's mind-boggling how it's been successful between the small portion with mostly noodles and a taste, which I was searching to find, it is definitely one of the three worst stir fry dishes I've had in over 40 years. Aside from the above, one of the problems with both the vegetables utilized in the stir fry as well as the salads, is that for a restaurant chain, that you would assume, focuses on healthy ingredients, as opposed to other fast food chains that mostly all utilize preserves, and the dirty dozen of vegetables, 95% of the ingredients are not organic, and are known vegetables high in pesticides and other carcinogens- simply look at the very resourceful website ewg.org, which will greatly benefit your health, as well as anyone that you care about. If the ingredients utilized by Honeygrow were organic, and did not include anything toxins, and there was an assurance of no preservatives, I could try to substantiate quality over quantity, but, still compromise taste. But, that doesn't apply here. The salad, can include organic spinach, if that's what you choose as your base. For the rest of the ingredients, I will went with safest (aside from carrots) choosing the edamame, snow peas, chickpeas, Mediterranean herbs, along with the grilled chicken. As the order was delivery, I can't comment on the casual ambiance. Honeygrow does have items, very limited, to accommodate people with gluten allergies. Otherwise, if someone were to suggest ordering from Honeygrow again, my answer will simply be, "honey no!"

My custom order
Stephanie B.

Well. I was hungry, and wanted a tasty lunch. I opted to order and have delivered via one of the takeout apps. It was easy and straightforward. I wish the portion was just a smidge larger, or it was just that good I wanted more!! The noodles weren't mushy for being smashed into the container. The broccoli was just the right crunch. I never had fried crunchy onions on top and wow, good addition.

Red Coconut Curry (v, gf)
Kyle C.

Service was quick and professional. You order at a kiosk and they let you know when it's ready. Relaxed atmosphere. I had the red curry which was good and the rest of my party ordered make your own which they really enjoyed. Everything was good, light and filling. Kind of pricey but worth it.

Classic Shrimp Caesar
Payal P.

I love every honeygrow I end up visiting. It is so cool how the set up is the same. I think the ordering system is very easy to use and food has always came out quick and fresh. I got the Classic Shrimp Caesar salad which had a great amount of shrimp. I don't think the default option of seasoned croutons and shaved parmesan really added anything to the salad. Both made the salad too salty. I think by default they should only have parmesan or croutons (both is too much different flavors). I highly recommend the Brownie Crumble Honeybar. I like the fruit at the bottom mixed in with the brownie pieces.

Make it Grain Salad
Micaelly A.

Great place if you need a quick and different salad. I got a Make it Grain, which came with a load of good and healthy stuff. They do allow you to alter your salad as well so if you want something vegan, vegetarian, or simply if you don't like something, it's very easy to change your salad and support those needs. The staff was friendly and the wait was not too long. I had mine as take-out so I didn't experience their in door restaurant.

My food.

I ordered dine in. They put it in a to go container. They missed three items in my order. Barely any steak. For 16 dollars this is absurd. This is the second time I have gone here and my order has been messed up.

Honeygrow has been my go to for lunch and dinner the past few months. I'm a fan of the red coconut curry with shrimp. I've never really explored other than that menu item, but I'm sure the other stir fry options are great as well. The rice noodles are usually tasty and good with the exception of 1/5 occurrences where they were trying a new noodle supplier. I was glad to see they went back to the original supplier. There was also an instance where they were out of noodles and rice which I had to unfortunately had to leave without ordering anything. These situations were not the norm from my experience but they have happened in the past 2 months. I do recommend checking your order before you leave though because I have missing or wrong items. Overall, the food is fresh, tasty, and very cleanly! So this place is a thumbs up.

Tofu Shrimp Walnut Basil Pesto
Soumya I.

My go to healthy fast food options are Honeygrow and Sweetgreen. Now Sweetgreen takes the cake (ironic I know) for salads in my opinion however Honeygrow wins for stir fry! I try to get something different every time I go. I've gotten Spicy Garlic, Walnut Basil Pesto, Red Coconut Curry, and i've created my own. Red Coconut Curry is however my absolute favorite of the bunch. If you're a Thai food fanatic this is your dish. Also a huge plus in my opinion, you can customize (types of noodles, protein, veggies, sauces, etc) each dish at a kiosk so they don't have to deal with undeceive people..aka me. Tip: Make sure for protein you UNSELECT the default option before choosing another protein option. lol I wanted tofu so I selected it but didn't realize the shrimp was still selected...so I ended up getting both in my stir fry. It was interesting and in my defense, I was starving so I wasn't paying attention lol May the odds be in your favor y'all!

Lunchtime!
Tamika B.

Since my last review, I stopped in again and had a great experience! I was able to order from the kiosk (next to it was hand sanitizer), easily placed my order, customer service was great, and the place was very clean! Came back and ate there. Ordered my usual: red coconut curry, roasted shrimp, jalapeños, pineapple, scallions, cilantro, with the original rice noodles! They brought them back y'all! I was so happy! Also, reached out to Michelle, Guest Experience Specialist who reimbursed me for my unsatisfied past experience (which I was not looking for or expecting a refund). It's a great feeling when a business values their customers and go out their way to make them happy! honeygrow is still one of my favorite spots in Philly!

got 2 diy stir fry with chicken and tofu. food was great however they mark pickup orders ready before they prepare them (via doordash).

Sesame Garlic Chicken ~
Jenny D.

Honeygrow is near and dear to my heart, a personal favorite of the surrounding Temple campus restaurants. It is literally PERFECT for those who are hungry on a budget and on a diet, but still want to have a good fulfilling meal. So many different combinations and this place is the epitome of innovation. With advancing technology, skip the ordering and head straight to the huge sleek touchscreens. With a couple taps, you get to fully customize your order, and if you're not sure what to try, they have the pre-made honey grow favorites but still super easy to swap out every little thing to pick and choose your faves. I've tried all the different flavors, bases, proteins, toppings - I've finally found the perfect combination (in my opinion). My new go-to order is the spicy garlic chicken combo BUT swap out the sauce for the sesame garlic. I love the combination of ingredients of the order, but the sesame garlic sauce is too good to pass up. Orders in the restaurant come with these cool bowls with a little duvet to put your chopsticks, so cute. To go orders come in Chinese take out boxes, even cuter. Hefty portion, everything is cooked to perfection with an amazing balance of saucy, savory, crunchy, soft, chewy, moist, you can have it all. Orders come out FAST so if you're short on time, this place is perfect. And to top all of this off, the place even comes with FREE WIFI.

I first went to honeygrow because it was a new food option on my college campus. I downloaded the app which is great for pick-up when you're in a rush. Bonus: it comes with a $5 discount on your first order. I ordered the sesame garlic stir fry which was quite delicious. The beef was cooked but not tough. The seasoning was delectable, and it was great as a wholesome, healthy meal (new year, new me?). Honeygrow also offers a number of other healthy, filling options. I would recommend this place, especially to Temple students, and I'll definitely be going again!

This University City location is fine! I still think the OG Chinatown location is the best, but…read morethis one definitely has its own perks. The menu is mostly the same, so you know what you're getting. I actually came here for the University City Dine With Us deal, and honestly, 3 courses for $20 is a great deal, especially because they still give you those VERY generous Sang Kee portions. You definitely won't leave hungry. The University City location is newer and has a lot more seating, unless you're comparing it to the second floor of the Chinatown location. It's also nicely decorated and feels a little more polished and modern while still keeping that casual noodle house feel. The staff here were fine, and the food came out really quickly. Everything was good, but I couldn't help feeling like the flavors were a little more toned down and "white person friendly" compared to the Chinatown location. It just didn't have quite the same depth or punch that I remember from the OG. That said, it could totally be because I was ordering from the deal menu or maybe I just caught them on an off day, so I'm not going to hold that too strongly against them. One thing I really appreciated was the staff being so kind when my friend got stuck in the thunderstorm. I was waiting for her while it was absolutely POURING outside, and one of the ladies let me stay inside without making me feel like I needed to leave or hurry up. That was genuinely appreciated. Overall, a very solid location. If Chinatown feels too far, I'd absolutely come here instead. The food is still good, the portions are generous, the space is nicer and newer, and the prices are reasonable. I just think the OG still has that extra something.

The spicy beef tendon was tender and had a little bit of spice as well. Came with a good portion size. Items are reasonably priced but they aren't exceptionally delicious. Everything was average. Everything was also very greasy. Takeout was quick and easy. They also have a dining in option. They have lunch and dinner specials for reasonable prices during the weekdays. Staff was nice and friendly.

For all that is holy, if you like Chinese food at all you HAVE to come here. The service is fast,…read morefriendly, and attentive. Everyone is sooooo nice. We ordered 5 dishes among the 4 of us for a family style dinner. Here's what we got: Dry style crispy fish (IT IS GF!) 3 cup chicken Dan Dan noodles Garlic eggplant Chili dumplings All of them were incredibly flavorful and delicious. The dry style fish is the best I've had everywhere. Don't sleep on eating the aromatics they stir fry the fish in--the celery and onions in it are INCREDIBLY TASTY. The 3 cup chicken was crispy (it is breaded and fried to soak up more flavor), the noodles were bouncy and delicious. People were dipping their other food items into the sauces of the 3 cup and noodles all night. The eggplant was very creamy, with crispy edges and flavorful, but it was average compared to other eggplant I've had, which is always still good! And finally, the dumplings were probably the weakest dish. There is little meat to dumplings skin ratio. The meat is flavorful, but not juicy and tender. The chili sauce in it is incredible. All in all, a great meal with great people. The music they play in house is fun and early to mid 2000s. Great for a crowd.

I do recommend making a reservation as they can be pretty slammed on Fridays/weekends. The Srirachi wings had a nice crunch to them while still keeping the chicken juicy inside. It would've been nice to have an even amount of wings to drumsticks though, as I like flats more, but thats just a personal preference. The crabmeat fried rice was amazing, a really good portion of chunks of crabmeat mixed in so each spoonful had some. The duck curry was a "Grandma's special" so a much bigger portion and cost - but reasonable. The duck wasnt dry and had a good flavor throughout, not relying on the curry to give taste. The curry also had a hint of sweetness to it which complements the greasiness of the duck. The papaya salad felt very refreshing - we got it at level one as to not overpower our taste buds with all the other food. I did get some chili pepper on the side to add in later. My one recommendation is having Thai peppers as an option instead of dried chili flakes. I much prefer the taste of fresh Thai pepper to add the extra heat. The mango sticky rice is always a favorite. The mango is soft and ripe, the right amount of sweetness. They also mix pandan in with the sticky rice for a more impactful umami (Im also a big advocate for pandan in desserts).

Very hip place in Center City. It was bustling around dinner time. We actually had a reservation…read morebut ended up getting seated at least 45 minutes after our reservation time because of how busy it was which was a bit annoying. We had to consistently ask staff when we would be seated and they never gave us an estimated time frame, which resulted in us awkwardly hanging out by the entrance until a table was ready. Our waitress seemed rather annoyed every time she visited our table (which was not very often). The food was solid, although I wouldn't say it blew me away. I had the Ratchada duck which was good and flavorful. We shared some small plates which were also good. Drinks were okay. I think it was worth trying, but I do think this place is a little overhyped. The mediocre service is probably enough to make it not worth the hassle of waiting.
