My son loves the crab rangoon here and I think he would eat it every day if I would let him! We live just Down the street and get take out every few months from them and have never had a bad dish! Pretty good fresh veg, and the American Chinese staples are always done well! Nothing as comforting as a big pile of fried chicken fingers...not so good for my ass but still yummy! read more

Fresh. That's really the impression I get, and I eat here about once a week. I was raised on Chinese food, everything from the Kowloon to the South Pacific (Newton), Makaha (Acton) and on and on... but this is the freshest I've ever had. Other places obviously have everything cooked and reheated, like a buffet in the kitchen, but here everything is cooked to order, and for the most part the meat is nicely trimmed of fat. I usually get either chicken chow main or beef with peppers, but they have a nice selection. read more

DELICIOUS!! They gave me my white rice and lobster sauce on the house Bc of a mistake I, not them, made. Chicken in garlic sauce is EXCELLENT. Highly recommend this place. read more

I tried this place for the first time by getting a mango smoothie and pork fried rice, it really could not have been better, this place is sooooooo good, i will definately come back for more, well done. read more

We had been ordering from the 88, but a few weeks ago it was closed for vacation so as we live just down the street from the Hong Kong we decided to give them a try. It was worth it, the peking dumplings come in 2 sizes and you can choose steamed or fried, perfectly done scallion pancakes and chicken fingers. Both beef dishes we got were good as was the fried rice & lo mein. Tonight we changed it up and got crab ragoon that were great, spring rolls and chicken moo shi (with free extra pancakes). Everything was hot and delivery was fast. Next time I think we'll walk down and eat in. read more

Excellent food, very clean, very flavor full, great price and presentation was also top notch. Overall great food. Hip Hip Hooray!

My hot and sour soup was sweet my egg roll was burnt my crab Rangoon's where over cooked I think they just gave me old food vary bad food I will never go there again if I could give them no stars I would read more

Delicious food, wonderful service, huge portions. No complaints - the place was immaculate and the atmosphere warm and inviting. The drinks are strong, too. Haven't tried the sushi yet but it looks fresh and well-prepared. Overall, I love this restaurant, obviously. read more

update- I amd not going to order their general gau's chicken anymore! It is very mushy and soggy and the chicken can be somewhat chewy sometimes. I still LOVE their eggrolls though~ I ate there last night and the food reminded me of pure junk food! read more

Food is average, but the restaurant signage looks horrendous in an otherwise classy downtown area. It just doesn't belong there, and frankly there is better chinese food just down the road (88 restaurant & that chinese place, for example) read more

Rude service, food was worse than the mall Chinese food. Do not waste your money. China Villa in Middleton is worth the ride!

I love this place its always good. Me and my boyfriend order the Chicken Teriyaki and Chicken Moo Shi over a bed of white rice its sooo good. We recently moved from Danvers to Malden and we still go back at least once a month to order this. read more

Hong Kong Cafe exceeded all expectations. both the Chinese food (pu pu platter and szechuan chicken) and the sushi platter were delicious, the service was great, and they even threw in an extra small plate of sushi on the house. Highly recommended by myself and my family. read more

Cool that they deliver to surrounding towns, which was the initial appeal for me. Order included vegetable pad thai, vegetable lo mein, and french fries. I started ordering fries from Chinese places years ago, because I like how they taste fried in peanut oil. They were good. However, the actual Chinese food- the lo mein, was slightly better than the sub par pad thai that had an overwhelming lemon taste (along with half a lemon wedged into the container). Lo mein was good for a late night dinner, but I wouldn't get delivery again. read more

Worst place ever. Walk in. No one comes over. No menu. No waitress. Terrible decorations. Go home.

This restaurant has recently been taken over by new management - now called New Hong Kong with Chinese & Japanese food and a lounge with a full bar. The new menu has some great options and will please customers looking for sushi and traditional dishes. They also have bubble tea and smoothies in a large variety of flavors. When my family was seated, we had a few questions about the menu. When we asked our waitress what General Gao's tofu was, she told us it was the same as General Gao's chicken, but with tofu instead of chicken - not as helpful an answer as we had been hoping. She also seemed to be the only one working - answering phones, seating people, waiting on customers - which slowed down service. For appetizers we split scallion pancakes and spring rolls. For dinner we decided to share the General Gao's tofu, steamed mixed vegetables, brown rice, and Szechuan green beans. One of us had shrimp and avocado maki. Two of us had bubble tea - one taro tea, one Thai iced tea. The food arrived fairly quickly and tasted very fresh and flavorful, without extra oil or grease. The food is just as good as - if not better than - the food under the previous management. I highly recommend it. The service, however, was lacking. The one waitress was held up for a long time while we waited to have our leftovers boxed and receive our check. When she came for our leftovers and we told her we wanted them to go, she stacked the plates of food on top of each other as one would do if the leftovers were going into the trash - much to our horror! We were almost waiting for her to put our straw wrappers and napkins on top of our leftovers (which, to our relief, she didn't do). The service definitely left us missing our old manager friend who was such a pleasant presence during our meals there. Overall: Go for the food - definitely recommend it for its freshness and speed - but don't expect great or helpful service. read more

I ordered a dinner special of general gaus chicken with lo mein and chicken wings. The general gaus was very dry and it just felt like I was putting empty calories in my body. The lo mein was terrible as well; the only thing I really liked were the chicken wings which was a side order... Also ordered a hot and sour soup, which actually was not that bad. Still, was not too impressed with this food. read more

Trying to find a good Chinese Restaurant on the North Shore has been a difficult challenge since I moved here from NY a few years ago. After 3 years (and a lot of really crappy service & food) I have finally found my FAVORITE place! I was up late one night (having a bottle of wine... Or two) and googled 'Chinese delivery Salem Ma' and this place popped up - WOW- #amazeballs! This really nice girl answers the phone and takes your order. Sometimes, I need a little guidance when ordering; she's always very helpful. I love the Mai Fun, Chicken & Broccoli, Chicken Wings, Lo Mein, Shrimp Rolls & CRAB RANGOON! Yum! I don't typically leave reviews for restaurants but this place is deserving. In the past 2 months my roommate & I have ordered from there 6 times (they're that good) and now I've gotten my neighbor addicted. I can't say that you won't be disappointed in this place - but I can say that I've been running restaurants for over 10 years and this place has got it right; Great service, Great food, fast delivery and great prices. BRAVO! ps. Seriously - the best Crab Rangoon EVER... Thank you. read more

Great food nice little bar Awesome scorpion bowls Been going for about 10 years Never disappointed read more

Ok so it's Christmas Eve but this was the worst Chinese foo I've ever had. My mom agreed. We got a few Super Specials and LoMein. The lo mein taste like carrots and that's it. The boneless ribs were just plain and boring. It just was lousy all around and we feel we wasted our money for sure. I live in Danavers and have to say I'd never go back to this place. read more

Food was delicious although few problems. They charged me two drinks. Tries to say they fixed on receipt but did not fix. Had to come back and refund my money. The mango smoothie was disguising. After sitting for only 20 minutes it started to change colors. The ice tea has little flavor and was warm no ice. I asked for sweet and sour chicken special with crab rangoons and veggie fried rice instead of pork fried rice . They gave me pork fried rice and charged extra for veggie even though they gave me pork. I would not order from again. read more

Now I know if was New Years Eve. Having placed my order in advance with a good window for pick up. I had to wait 90 minutes from the time I asked to pick it up to the time I finally got the food. Yes, the staff was doing the best they could, but you know what kind of a rush it is going to be.You have to prepare for it in advance. I use to get my food from Royal Garden and never had an issue on New Years Eve.I might have to wait 5-10 minutes which is fine, but 90 minutes?Was any kind of discount offered? No. Was a free can of Coke offered? No. It doesn't help that while I was waiting, at least four times the manager or owner in the Bruins sweatshirt and glasses would come out of the kitchen chewing on something.After getting home, yes the food was good and fresh however the portions were way down compared to a normal order on a normal day.Not to mention the garlic noddles were not garlic at all. read more

I used to order from Hong Kong cafe once a week. We'd do chinese food night and to be honest, it was the only place we tried. The first time we ordered, the food was delivered fast and still hot. (30 minutes) A week later we got pick up and it took about an hour. Twice we ate in, the service was extremely slow and the waitress never asked to refill our drinks. It took fifteen minutes before anyone ever even came to our table just to get our food order. We weren't impressed. My disappointment grew. (I usaully leave 30% tip whereever I go but to be honest, I felt even my measly 15 was too much for the poor service at this overrated resturaunt. About two weekends ago was the last night we ever ordered from Hong Kong Cafe of Danvers. I was visiting friends at a hotel and we ordered 3 plates. The price was decent (about $25) and we tipped $5. They told us it would be 40 minutes and they took about an hour. After opening our plates, we realized their was a mistake. One of the plates was supposed to have lo mein, but we got rice. Immediately, we called in. The owner got on the phone and refused to correct the mistake. He explained that they didn't charge for the lo mein plate, (which was $1 more expensive), they charged me for a rice plate, so they wouldn't fix it. Even though I didn't order the rice plate! I explained, I hadn't yet touched the rice plate and even offered to pay the difference, he still refused. He said the only thing he would do is deliver me a small side of lo mein if I'd pay $5 extra. Needless to say, I will never order from there again. Enough is enough. Although the food is halfway decent, the service is horrible. I am still bewildered by the fact that the owner refused to fix their mistake. I wasn't rude or ignorant. Besides don't customers always come first??? I would not reccommend this place to anyone. read more

Absolutely disgusting. I thought they were different now but they just changed they name. It's as gross as ever. The worst pad thai I have ever had in my life. For some reason they made it super spicy. I love spicy food but pad thai should not be the least bit spicy because it is supposed to be peanut based and sweet. Also, I bit into a ton of egg shell. I actually crunched through the entirety of the very little I ate. The only thing I enjoyed was throwing it into the trash. So revolting, never get food from this hole. read more

Pretty consistent Chinese food. Since new owners seem to have improved the food a bit. They added sushi (which I haven't tried yet). If you get some apps and some normal dishes, I think you will be happy here. Prices are reasonable. I would advise that the last 2 times they messed up my order slightly so check it before you leave the restaurant. All in all pretty good though read more

Not sure what happened to the former owners but they are not there any more. Two guys took it over and so far, food tasted good but I've only eaten there once since they started. read more

Been here quite a few times and we usually dine in. Service here is very friendly and warm, and the food is always hot and delicious. One of my favorite places. read more

Food is okay, but delivery fee+minimum order of $20 is just ridiculous.

Their boneless spare ribs are great - not fatty at all. The food is very good now they are under new ownership. I strong reccomend it for chinese food in Danvers. I'm a new fan! read more

food is ok..nothing special, just acceptable. BUT the problem is that they are pretty much idiots and nasty when it comes to delivery. The owner said delivery charge will be free since the total is over 38$ without tax. Then they charged us 2$ delivery fee...The most horrendous part is that it took them 1 hr 40 min to find my place!! I live in danvers and it is about 5min away from the restaurant!! They are not even sorry about it!! The owner responded like an as* on the phone. We have been loyal customers even foods are average..BUT now Hong kong cafe lost us. Good job Hong kong cafe! I'm def in for trying new Chinese restaurant after this experience! read more

The ownership changed and the food is just ok. The manager on the other hand is THE most unprofessional and unaccommodating manager I have ever encountered. She needs enter into a hospitality program and get an education on customer service. I miss the old owner John and his friendly staff. The staff leaves a lot to be desired. read more

So disappoint their sushi . The sushi rice was weird taste and the salmon not fresh , also the drink wasn't my taste too.

Fraudulent activity..... Be careful if you order from here! We ordered food for delivery. The food itself was actually pretty good. However, we provided a credit card to charge the order to. When the driver came, we signed the slip and provided a $5.00 cash tip. When the charge hit our credit card, there was an additional $10.00 charge. I called the restaurant and spoke to John who indicated that the mistake was on our end and we must have forgotten that we added the tip. Seriously? WRONG! There were three of us here and my wife was the one that answered the door and signed the slip. Our only mistake was not writing CASH or drawing a line through the tip box. Clearly the delivery driver is committing fraud by adding additional money to the bill for his benefit. John then told me that the driver has been working for him for three years and we are the first to complain? This was the first time I ordered from this place and it will be the last. I have no problem paying for food and I am a firm believer that you should tip a driver. However, I am not going to support a place that commits fraud and doesn't stand by its customer when they call with an issue. read more

Before I place an order I always ask if I can get the dish without vegetables and depending on the answer makes my decision whether to eat there or not. I asked the gentleman behind the counter if I could order chicken lo mein without vegetables and I was told no problem. When I received my food I checked it before I left and there were vegetables in the lo mein and when I told the gentleman that took my order he proceeded to tell me lo mein comes with vegetables. I politely reminded him that I asked to have no vegatables and he then said the kitchen made a mistake and he would fix it, when I got the new order I again checked for vegetables and yes not only were there vegetables but it had looked like they tried to pick out most of them and handed me back the same lo mein. I am pretty sure that's a no no in the restaurant business. I was disgusted and threw it away. Never going back there again read more

Place has gone down hill. I have not been here in awhile. I tried to order online. When I arrived they did not place the order, thereby nullifying the reason I ordered online. Another person was also waiting. The guy behind the counter was complaining about all the online orders. Then another customer came in and grabbed her food and said she will not order online anymore and the guy behind the counter actually agreed!! LOL. When I got the food and brought it home the scallion pancakes were dry, clearly they were out all day and just heated them up. The crispy fish was soggy. Perhaps in Chinese crispy actually means soggy. The egg drop soup was good I guess. Overall however it was a crappy experience. Also there was nobody there on a Saturday night. That place used to be packed all the time. Don't waste your time and money there. There is far too much competition around to waste your time. read more

called at 530 for a delivery, 3 kids under 4 all hungry..... no food in the house (my fault i know)... 1030, still no delivery, called 7 times!! NEVER AGAIN!! go to china villa, even tho u have to pick it up, at least you'll eat!! read more

Food was good... delivery not impressed. To start we were told 30 minutes took an hour. When the food arrived it was cold and there were no utensils ( a $3 delivery charge for cold food). The driver was rude and insisted we write the credit card number ( that had already been provided when we called and charged for the full amount) on a blank piece of paper for him. When we told him that the card was already charged and we would not write number down he was displeased. Next, we realize they have not included parts of our order. We called them looking for the food and they stated they did not want to send driver back with missing things, " we will just give you more food next time you order." After some difficulty they finally agreed to bring the food. Approx 45 minutes later they called to say they are too busy to bring the food and that we were going to have to take more food next time. I quickly advised him we WOULD NOT BE ORDERING AGAIN" I told him to put the money back on charge.. he argued for several minutes about this. Finally he decided that he was going to have someone DELIVER the cash to me. OK, you couldn't deliver the food but you can bring the cash to me instead of putting it back on the charge? WILL NEVER ORDER FROM HERE AGAIN!!!! read more
