    Left my entire plate so called bbq pork was completely dry and was absolutely disgusting.
    Oscar M.

    I'm extremely disappointed with my experience at Hong Kong Express on Chapman. I came in with high expectations because the restaurant has good reviews and a high overall rating. Honestly, I'm not sure what those reviewers were eating because my meal was terrible. The BBQ pork was absolutely disgusting--super dry, tough, and had no sauce whatsoever. The orange chicken was a complete bust as well, lacking flavor and freshness. The rice wasn't any better. The only thing that was halfway decent were the noodles, and that was only because I used two packets of soy sauce to make them edible. I would describe this place as a visual mirage. As you can see from the photos, they give you a huge amount of food, but I'd much rather have quality over quantity. A giant plate of bad food is still bad food. I ended up leaving almost the entire meal untouched and will most likely throw the whole thing away. I almost asked for a refund, but I decided not to. Instead, I'll simply share my experience and recommend saving your $13 and spending it somewhere else. The one positive thing I can say is that the staff and owners were very nice and courteous. For customer service, they deserve credit. Unfortunately, kindness alone can't make up for food that was this disappointing. Very disappointed customer.

    Chow mein. Steamed veggies and crispy fish
    Elsa T.

    Came in from a social media post on instagram, the place was packed which is a good sign...Amazing chow mein and rice, the steamed veggies were deli and still had a bite to them... the crispy fish was flaky and well seasoned..you definitely get a lot of food in 1 order, the customer service was great, will be coming back for sure.

    Combo B : Broccoli Beef, Jalapeño Chicken
    Kianoosh C.

    A few friends and I stopped by Hong Kong express for a quick meal before seeing a movie at the Block. I have previously been to the Hong Kong Express in Westminster that ended up going somewhat viral on TikTok, but I believe this place isn't really affiliated. When we came in, the store was packed. We were in line behind like 8-10 people which was surprising for a Chinese takeout spot like this. We saw that they were running a deal that got you free 4pc egg rolls and 2 fountain drinks when you order 3 Combo B's, which we were planning on doing anyways. The service and ordering experience was a fairly standard hectic process, but we got our food no problem. A couple of us got the pictured order with Jalapeño chicken and beef and broccoli. I would definitely recommend those items over some of their others. My friend got the barbecue pork and hot orange chicken, both of which were pretty big misses in our opinion. The pork only had a few tender pieces, and the orange chicken was fully soggy. At a place like this though, I think it'd be wise to just order whatever looks the freshest. The place wasn't the cleanest or quietest, but considering we got 3 huge plates of food, 4 egg rolls, and 2 drinks for under $40, I'm more than happy with our experience.

    I heard about the large portions here and had to check them out. I ordered the 3 item combo with orange chicken teriyaki chicken and pork ribs. They really load your plate. My third item was in a separate box. Other places all three items fit in one box, and there's still room. The reason for 4 stars was the teriyaki chicken was a bit dry. All the employees were really nice. There was plenty of parking.

    food was delicious and super flavorful! prices are super cheap for what they give you! the plates are massive! one definitely feeds two people!

    Chow mein, spicy orange chicken, salt and pepper shrimp and beef and broccoli

    This is a solid Chinese fast place. I got their 3 combo plate and they packed the entrees like a traditional fast food Chinese place typically does! It brings be back to the 1990's growing up. I ordered their chow mein, spicy orange chicken, salt and pepper shrimp and beef and broccoli. Chow mein was okay. Just how I remembered it to be. I can't complain. It's not the best, but it's to be expected at a place like this. Spicy orange chicken wasn't spicy or as tangy as I'd like. But that's okay. Again, I didn't expect much. The beef and broccoli was just okay as well. What I liked the most about this dish was that the broccoli was still crunchy! Good job guys! Service was quick! I was in and out in less than 7 minutes. Place was clean and people were super friendly. I'd come back for the predictable food.

    Mamadas food is always amazing here!! Favorite place for the past 16+ years Service is always great and servings even better ! A must try. And I promise you'll be a regular They got a special going on right now

    Yes,  there was a line out the for the whole time we ate.
    Patrice I.

    Let's just start with this....the missing star is because they don't offer white meat chicken options. I don't mind dishes that use dark meat but I would like options. This location is in a little outside strip mall. The inside is simple with some tables to eat at. The staff was friendly. Alright now for this dinner experience. Just look at the picture. They are not stingy with portions. All noodles with jalapeño chicken and beef and broccoli. The noodles tasted really good but unfortunately we got the bottom of the pan. They brought out fresh noodles a couple orders right behind us. Although the amount served was a good amount, the noodles were short and cut up with lots of the little veggies that they put in it. Watching them serve the fresh noodles, there definitely is an obvious visual difference. I highly recommend waiting for a fresh pan to come out if you see them scraping the bottom of the pan on the line. The beef and broccoli was delicious. Very very fresh tasting broccoli, crunchy and well flavored. The beef was cut thin and cooked perfectly. The jalapeño chicken was flavored very well. Just the right amount of spice. It is dark meat, and had some fresh veggies in it. I don't live in this area (here for Disneyland) but would most likely come again on a future visit. This meal was split in 2 and even so we didn't finish it all. Just under $17 for the 2 entrée meal with a soda.

    Uhhhmm... this is one order? WOW! They don't skimp here on portion size OR flavor. Tiny hole in wall joint that serves up a vast array of offerings. I decided to play it safe and ordered orange chicken and broccoli beef. Ya know... the staples of fast chinese food. Enough food for 2 people and the flavors were spot on. What else could one ask for? Well, I'll back to try the others. Friendly staff, too. Go here!

    2 item combo w Orange chicken, rice, and chow mein.
    Samira E.

    First time ordering from here. Was looking for a spot like the old school hood Chinese food restaurants where you can see it behind the glass in the tray warmers, and they stuff the styrofoam box. This place definitely takes the cake, good food, big portions. This place has the biggest portions I've ever been served a Chinese food restaurant. Will definitely be coming back here when I'm in North Orange County.

    lunch special (chow mein, salt and pepper fish, wontons)
    Catherine T.

    it's always a decent day after some hong kong express. i've been going here for all my life since i grew up around the area, and ever since i found love for the other food places in the same plaza, i've been frequenting hong kong express a lot more often out of comfort and familiarity. the food is cheap and plenty esp if you come before 4pm for their lunch special ($11.99 for up to two carbs, an entree, a choice of egg rolls, wings, or wontons, and a medium drink). not the healthiest option, but this place is gr8 for anyone seeking greasy comfort food. fried rice is a lil lackluster, so i recommend getting the chow mein. service is decent considering there's a line every time i visit. not a place i would stay to eat (maybe once in a blue moon), but def a place to get your food and go! interior is like a typical chinese takeout place.

    Mushroom Chicken
    Daniel L.

    I came here really late at night and wasn't sure what to expect. I've been to this Chinese fast food a few times before, the portions or HUGE and the food is fresh. Even coming here late at night when they are about to close, the food was still really good for fast food. There were less options and the service was still amazing. The staff who work here are always great and quick to take your order. If you're looking for Chinese fast food, this is the spot you should go to! I had the Mushroom Chicken, BBQ Pork, and Chow Mein. The food was hot and still tasted freshly made. Great portions even late at night.

    Bbq chicken / orange chicken
    Justin Y.

    The portion is generous, but not crazy like you see it on social media Really enjoyed the food except the orange chicken. Some were super dry and tasted old. Bbq chicken was cooked perfect and juicy

    Do you have Cashew chicken?

    We've been several times yet have not seen cashew chicken. The food is excellent, however, with ginormous portions and always a wide variety of Americanized Chinese that we all love!!

    Are they on door dash?

    Hong Kong Express does not join any third party delivery as they have their own app with delivery. You can go to below link to order.… 

    Is the food cooked with MSG?

    I do not know the answer to that but i will ask the next time i go there.

Looks like a converted bar with plenty of booths. Our no nonsense server warmed up to us as lunch progressed. We ordered sweet and sour and king pao chicken from the somewhat (?) lunch menu, both very inexpensive. My wife liked the hot n sour soup. My egg flower soup was a STAR! Not too thick, great flavor and nice and hot! Some large egg rolls were included. A little oily for my taste but again, Irene liked hers. You can ask for some S&S/mustard dipping sauce. A slightly different take on how they prepared the mustard. The sweet and sour was decent breaded chicken with good homemade sauce, chopped onions and peppers. No pineapple darn it. My Kung Pao could have been called Kung zucchini! That was okay as the portion was huge and I shared some. Plenty of peanuts too (I wished they had been cooked inside the wok..). More than enough fried rice (we took some home. I always ask myself would we come back? A resounding yes as I have to try their egg foo young! I admit I was disappointed that the tea is in a single serve bag instead of a pot.

Hopefully next time the service is a little smoother, but if you're craving great dumplings, this place is definitely worth checking out.

Dynasty is located in a small strip mall and is next door to Daiso. This means there's plenty of parking so parking shouldn't be a problem when we got here around 5 PM. I noticed there weren't many people there. Granted, it was still early and I'm assuming you'll get a little busier as the night goes on. We were greeted and seated at a table. The people were nice and while I was surprised they didn't speak. Cantonese, the server spoke Mandarin and help us make decision on what items to order. We ended up getting the green beans, the filet mignon French style, a black bean fish fillet, and their house special fried rice. I thought the best item that we got was the fried rice. They put a decent amount of shrimp and barbecue pork and it tasted pretty good. The green beans was a tad bit on the sweeter side which I wasn't used to, but it had decent flavors. The filet mignon was a little bit on the smaller side and there wasn't a ton of pieces in there and it was the most expensive dish of the night. I probably will skip that next time. The fish fillet was actually pretty good. All in all, 3.5/5 stars is probably what I would give it. There are definitely better Chinese restaurants if you're willing to drive a little bit out. At least it's nice that this place is conveniently close to where we live.

And said we decided to share and eat off of my two brothers plate before we decided to consider coming back or eating more. There was only one worker that was working at the time, but she did a phenomenal job, considering she was holding down the fort for the restaurant by herself. She also mentioned she doesn't like lamb, but she would eat the one here herself so it gave me a pretty good first impression thus far. We ordered the lamb skewers, grilled rib, shank over rice, homemade yogurt, and Cole slaw. Lamb Skewers - 4.5/5 the portion was very generous! $15 for 3 large skewers that was about 1.25 ft length each. Was perfectly grilled and did not taste gamey at all. I believe it was Szechuan pepper that seasoned the skewers. I didn't eat enough to recognize if there was any numbing, but the bite that I took was amazing. Outside was crunchy inside was chewy enough to enjoy, but not tough. Grilled rib - 5/5 I was very pleasantly surprised at how although it was very charred and crunchy in the outside that the inside was very soft and fatty. The meat literally fell off the bone. Again, no gaminess and very pleasant to enjoy. Shank - 5/5 I would have to say that this was the hero of the evening from all the dishes we ordered. The meat was extremely soft, fatty, and literally fell off the bone as I was holding it up. It was very similar to pork flavor and extremely enjoyable for me. On a separate note, I enjoyed that so much but because I had already eaten before this dinner, I came back a separate day to have that dish for myself. The rice seems to be cooked in some type of protein broth and if I had to guess it's probably lamb broth along with carrot. It also came with size of pickled items to lighten the fatness from the meat as well as a small bowl of lamb based soup. Homemade yogurt - 4/5 had a slight tartness to it and light sweetness, but was more leaning towards the sweet side of things. I enjoyed it with the dried raisins and the granola for texture and it was a pretty good ending to the entire meal. Coleslaw - 3/5 it tasted average and didn't seem to be anything special. Though it was good to have it along with all the other protein items to lighten up each bite.
