What I like about this place is what most people like about Chinese places.Large quantities. But, what this place apart from the other standard Chinese places is the food itself. It's very good. Seems like they use high-quality products. They do care about the customers and the service that they provide to us. I highly recommend them. read more

Nasty nasty stay away! Save your money. Chow mein is so undercooked. And has a weird taste to it. Ordered the chicken they gave me more veggies than anything. Do not bother go to Panda across the street! In today's high economy walk away!! Don't fall for the false pictures outside read more

Hong Kong Express - Received my food cold. Told staff and all she had to say was " Want to use my microwave " lol - Chinese Near Me - Hawthorne, California

Tried this place last night. PROS -Easy to find parking -several selections -looked appetizing -big portion CONS - greasy/ overfried egg rolls - rice was uneven with white rice in between fried rice portions -seating area did not look so inviting Not sure I will return but I guess I've appeased my mind since I always looked towards the business when in this shopping area. read more

The staff are very friendly. Prices are affordable, and portions are generous. I got Mongolian beef (cooked to order), a combo (steamed rice with two entrées) and a house fried rice, all for $39. The orange chicken is overly sweet, and the Kung Pao chicken is just average--Panda Express actually does it better. However, the house fried rice is quite good. read more

The food portions are generous, and the quality is excellent. They provide fast, friendly service.

The original plan was to have Thai food for lunch. But first, gotta make a stop at T-Mobile next door to claim that Tuesday perk! I couldn't help but look up after putting my perk in the trunk and spotted this place. Immediately, my appetite 86'd the Thai food craving and called an audible: Chinese food it is! There was nothing bangin' about this place. It's almost like a plain-Jane-what-you'd-expect from a no-nonsense eatery. There were a couple of tables occupied but most people came through for take out. There was one person ahead of me, so I got the chance to take a look at what they had to offer. Most of the dishes consist of chicken, maybe a couple of pork dishes, egg rolls, steamed vegetables. I also noticed a fried fish filet. But I went for a 2-item combo: sesame chicken and salt and pepper fried chicken with half white rice and half noodles. I watched the young lady put my food together, and immediately I noticed how generous she was with the helpings. I knew off the bat the amount of food I got would yield a 2nd meal! NOODLES: Typical of most Chinese fast food spots. I'll even admit it's pretty comparable to Panda Express' version. Good seasoning, great chew. I liked it! SESAME CHICKEN: The chicken was cooked tender and juicy. However way they made the sauce was a really good blend of savory with a hint of sweet, and if you feel compelled for some heat, red peppers aplenty. (I skipped it, not really a spicy food kinda gal.) I liked this as well! FRIED CHICKEN W/ SPICY SALT & PEPPER: It's their own version of salt and pepper chicken and it's SOOOO GOOOD!!! The wings are bigger in comparable to most wings restos. Deep fried crispy, on the outside, moist and really juicy on the inside, and their blend of salt and pepper was perfect! Like the sesame chicken, if you need heat, it comes with jalapeño slices. FOOD: 5. SERVICE: 4. Not a lot of interaction, but very friendly. Service with a smile! VALUE: 5. $8.79 for the 2 items. You get waaaaaayyy more than what you pay for. Truly bargain eats up in here! PARKING: Shared with many others. Shouldn't be an issue. OVERALL: 4.75. As mentioned earlier, most people came through for takeout. They do have a following - their doors were swinging open with customers coming through from the moment I arrived to the moment I left. I'm not gonna bother waiting for a T-Mobile perk to come through for a follow up visit. I shall return at first opp! Might check out that fried fish filet. But yeah, it certainly was a satisfying switch-a-roo! read more

Great food great prices. I had the sesame chicken the other day with green bean chicken and it was delicious. Today I get it again and had some of my friend's orange chicken, and OMG! The orange chicken is delicious. I stopped eating my sesame chicken. I feel like the sesame chicken was fried in same oil that fish was fried in? Idk, it could be because I started eating the orange chicken. Also tried bbq pork and it was tender and delicious. All in all food was great. read more

My husband and I were craving Chinese food. There was a nearby Chinese hot table that sells food by the pound but by the time we went it was already closed for the night, so we decided to come here since it was near and boy was I glad! It's been so long since I've been to this chain, I normally go to Panda Express, but this is my new go-to Chinese food! The portions they give were literally overflowing and the pricing was like early 2000 prices! I had enough food for two meals! read more

Disgusted to say the least. I've love eating here forever until today. Service is good but unsanitary. read more

Hong Kong Express - Bug - Chinese Near Me - Hawthorne, California

Found this place by chance. Ordered the 2 choice combo B. I had the fried rice, beef broccoli and orange chicken. Fried rice was good and didn't need to add soy sauce. Beef broccoli was as it should be, but the orange chicken was good. Flavor was orange chicken, but it was still semi-crunchy even after being drenched in the sauce. Great price at about $10. Filling enough for 2 meals for me. Small area with some seating and they sold boba drinks there but it was powdered flavors. read more

Terrible experience, the lady in the front today doesn't take the time to listen or hear your order and appeared to be annoyed when I was trying to explain what I wanted. She said I wasn't ready and skipped me and helped the next guest, even though I was before them. Food was ok service was terrible. Will not come back ever! GET MORE FRIENDLY WORKERS. read more

I would very much not encourage anyone to eat here. Only reason why I am giving it a two star is because the sweet young Asian lady who was so kind helping me. I can't even force myself to finish the food. Nothing tastes good. I've never had Chinese food taste like this.. Even the chili sauce sucks, as well as the teriyaki sauce.. I don't know who's running the kitchen but I would reevaluate your staff... Don't risk it on some of these positive reviews read more

Hong Kong Express - a take out container of food - Chinese Near Me - Hawthorne, California

I tried the shrimp fried rice and it was not good at all. No flavor just rice and shrimp was tasteless. Not even the onions made this dish stand out. They used the fried rice when you get a combo dish next to the chow mein. Then they had the nerve after I bought BBQ pork strips and sweet and sour chicken along with the shrimp fried rice to be very stingy with the little sweet and sour and hot sauce. When I say the rice had absolutely no flavor I mean it and charging the same as other authentically tasting shrimp fried rice preparing establishments. Never again. If you value your time and taste buds XX this place out of your must try restaurant visits. Employed in Hawthorne read more

Yesterday my mom ordered 2 plates and when it came down to paying the cashier was trying to force her to tip. My mom understands English and the guy was trying to force her into leaving a tip. He was also talking to her like if she was an idiot. When she declined to tip he proceeded to be extremely rude and told her that this is America you're supposed to tip everywhere you go, if you don't want to tip go back to your country. Teach your employees respect. Most of your customers are Hispanic. read more

They greeted me well when I came in no complaints there. Good customer service. But the Food is tasteless and terrible. Panda Express is better and that's not a compliment for panda. Chicken is dry. Rice is dry. Orange chicken is okay. Noodles are very greasy. The veggie egg rolls are extremely greasy. Not coming back and would not recommend this place. Food quality is very low. read more

Hong Kong Express - Dry and greasy - Chinese Near Me - Hawthorne, California

This location is probably the best Chinese fast food I've ever had ! The eggs rolls are so good and fresh I've traveled for them. The fried rice is beyond phenomenal!! I always ask for it done with no vegetables and they give you a big box of it. Always amazing and staff is so friendly. Will go to this place as long as it's open. It's that good. Been coming here since I was little. read more

Do not eat here!! I took 2 bites of the fried rice and noticed it smelled and tasted funny. A few hours later I had food poisoning.

Flavorful location inside hawthorne plaza with amazing presentation , quick & flawless service definitely coming back read more

Hong Kong Express - Spi 1 Item Combo - Chinese Near Me - Hawthorne, California

My wife ate there the other day. She didn't like the food, and she was forced to leave a tip, that didn't go well either. When we go out to eat I always leave a good tip for the service provided. When I go to Jack in Box I don't give them a tip for handing me the food. read more

Order combo b with a orange cream sickle smoothie, told ani whatever her name was to make the smoothie with half and half when i ordered it, i repeated myself when i said small. She begin to make it and add water i said excuse me i asked for milk not water. The lady then said you should've said that, i said i did at the when i ordered it. The lady had a attitude gets mad and then she pours a little off the top and add a little milk, mixes it and then hand it to me with stuff dripping down the side. I take a sip and asks for a refund. When I asked for my refund she ask why, I then says this is not horrible, can you please give me my money back. She walks away go to the back and tells the other lady to help me. I asked whats her name the young girl says I cant give you her name. I said are you serious, then I asked where's the manager the young lady replies she's not here. My goodness it's more too it. But why support when they treat you like this. Im over this place. They treat people horrible especially when the manager not around. read more

Lots of food for a decent price. I got the combo of two items with chow Ming. For my two items I got the mushroom chicken and the orange chicken, which both were pretty good. The chow Ming, in my opinion, was slightly salty for my taste, but it had a good flavor. read more

Came here for lunch after a meeting for work and it was popping! Good sign! Standard quick-fix Chinese food, with a diverse menu, combos aplenty and surprisingly lots of soup options. They also had fried whole tilapia if that's your thing, so kudos to them. Cheap furniture but it was well-maintained and clean. The servers were very nice, a big-plus. I had the Wor Wonton Soup, which was surprisingly good and comparable to what I'd receive at a sit-down restaurant. At just over $6, I appreciated the value. My co-workers all enjoyed their meals as well. If I was a local I'd come here for cheap eats. read more

For fast food this place is worth stopping for. The chow mein, rice, orange chicken, and kung pao chicken was just right. I was going to add some hot sauce but didn't need to since it was already hot and spicy. I also ordered for a friend at work and he ate the whole combo plate in one sitting. read more

Don't eat here... there's a McDonald's down the street that has better quality and taste.

Solid fast food Chinese restaurant. On par with Panda Express, but their food is slightly greasier (which is sometimes what the customer wants) and the portions are much more generous for a slightly lower price. Nothing to write home about, but nothing to call the Department of Public Health about, either. Perfect for a greasy fix, heat lamps and MSG included. I tried the chow mein, the fried rice, the orange chicken, and the broccoli beef. All of it was pretty okay - nothing amazing, yet nothing bad. I'd probably come here again if I was craving junk food. What I appreciate most about this place is that they're one of the few fast food restaurants in the area I've visited (taco joints included) that have managed to keep their prices pretty darn low. I was happy to be able to pay for a pretty good-sized combo and a drink and end up paying closer to $5 than $10. I always feel ripped off when I end up spending $10 on one fast food meal. The portions here are enormous, too, which makes them perfect for sharing or spreading out across 2+ meals. read more

Hong Kong Express - Combo B with orange chicken and broccoli beef - Chinese Near Me - Hawthorne, California

The food and customer service were great. I ordered the chow mein, broccoli beef and pepper pork. All of the items were fresh and delicious. I even got 2 meals out of it. I will definitely come back to try more of their good food. The lady who served me was also very nice and professional. read more

Okay kinda place I guess. Too much rice and noodles! Like 80% of the 2 item combo was that! And they were bland/boring. The orange chicken was okay, but Panda is better. Some beef thing with veggies was okay. I won't go back. I know better places. read more

Noodles were a little off in taste. presentation could have been better, some food was a little overcooked and not every container was wiped down. Customer service was great! May be back. read more

It has a 'B' so you know it has to be good. That's what I kept telling myself as I walked in, mostly joking because I know if it had a 'C' I'd still be eating here. I'm a sick bastard. Typical fare as others of these types of joints with a couple interesting twists. Sweet & sour spicy chicken which was some sort of chicken wing surprise dish, and a spicy chicken dish that was pretty decent. I wasn't up for the wings but I went with the old mainstay, the orange chicken. Best damn orange chicken I've had from one of these joints in a long time. Not only were there identifiable chicken pieces in it (and I didn't even have to break open the breading to look for it), but there was a hint of orange flavor! I know, you're saying, "Jason you dunce, it's called ORANGE chicken for a reason." "Bah," I reply, most of these places CALL it orange chicken but it tastes like randomsweetchickendish. Before you go running over here, keep in mind I've been eating some pretty crappy Chinese food for you Yelpers to find something decent, so best damn orange chicken in a while is a relative term. I give the orange chicken a 3. Another thing I liked about this place is that it's in a pretty nice plaza, you don't even feel like you're in Hawthorne. That's sweet. The downsides were the lack of clean tables, with most of them having bits of rice, chow mein, or inappropriately used Sriracha on them. Foodwise the letdown was the chow mein. Not only was it the nuclear orange color a lot of these shops seem to like (please let me know if there is a valid reason for the color), but this was al dente to the extreme. It wasn't supposed to be a fried noodle, but it was a bit dry. If it weren't for the tables being dirty (combined with the 'B' rating) and the chow mein, this might have wrangled 3-stars. read more

For fast and cheap chinedmse food this place is pretty good. The broccoli in the beef and broccoli was fresh and not over sauced and the orange chicken had a pleasant taste, not too sweet or overly orange. The staff are so polite and quick! read more

Husband went here yesterday and found a metal shard in his food! What the heck! There's nothing you can do once you've already taken the food home because they would have denied it came from their restaurant anyways. So disappointing! Won't be risking that again! read more

Hong Kong Express - A metal shard my husband almost swallowed in his food. - Chinese Near Me - Hawthorne, California

I mean this joint is always crowded so it must be good right. Yes and no. First of all I'm not a fan of these Chinese take out joints so I may not be the best person to judge this place. Food wasn't bad but it wasn't nothing I couldn't live with out. All in all I get the ehhh feeling about this place. If I'm hungry and can't think of anything better and I do mean ANYTHING then I settle for this. Knowaboutit read more
