In comparison to other Chinese takeouts, the food doesn't appear to be fresh. I found an egg shell in my fried rice and also found a long strand of black hair in my lo mein noodles. I don't think I will be coming back to try Hong Wah. They were friendly and quick. I will commend them for that. read more

When we arrived at the restaurant , we learned that the restaurant hasn't been fully opened since COVID, meaning that we could order and all the food would be brought to the table in take out containers. Empty tables and booths cordoned off by room dividers. There was a constant stream of take-out customers. The food was okay. Just prepare yourself for Chinese food prepared for a non-Asian palate. read more

Hong Wah Restaurant - Ginger Chicken with String Beans & House Specialty Soup - Chinese Near Me - Penfield, New York

I have had the food here in years past and I always thought it was pretty decent, but unfortunately that wasn't the case in my recent experience. When my mother called to place the order. The woman said to call back in an hour and she'd be better to assist us. My mother had called at 11 when it said it was open, but I guess maybe the lady wanted to open at noon instead that day? It was a Sunday so not really sure... Fried rice was tiny minuscule pieces that didn't really taste like friend rice- not sure how to describe it. The sweet and sour chicken was decent, but unfortunately that was about the only meal that was worth a mention. Very surprised and disappointed. read more

Service is very friendly and the food is good and reasonably priced. We enjoy our carryout.

Love the food and the people! They always ask how my grandparents are doing, even though they haven't been here in years! One of my favorite places to go. read more

Terrible food. The Kung Pao Chicken had no flavor and there was an absurd amount of peanuts and celery. The Chicken Lo Mein was also disgusting and had no flavor. Tasted like it came from a dirty kitchen. read more

I have never had a bad meal here. I LOVE their fried dumplings and lo mein. They haven't won awards for nothing! They are reasonably priced and there is always a lot left for leftovers! I'll always recommend Hinh Wah! read more

Absolutely the worst! Looked fine but chicken was tough, stringy and dried out. Even the 2 little bits of broccoli were tough and not edible. Egg rolls were tough and tasteless . So disappointing! It was horrible. read more

The food was very bland. Even though we ate in the dining room, we were served in to go containers. The service was slow and one meal was served after everyone else had finished eating. The prices were low, proving the old adage that you get what you pay for. read more

Hong Wah is the best. Vicky and Kevin are fantastic and the food is always top notch. My go to place for Chinese food.

Always consistent and great priced food. No matter what you get. Very glad they are in my community! Nice couple!

Service was consistent and the woman working was amazing very welcoming! Food is fantastic very flavorful! Their rice too even the plain white is just so goood read more

Ordered chicken ginger with green beans which was not overwhelming with ginger, the way I prefer. Lots of chicken and beans for a good price. The sesame chicken was and large won ton soup - soup base could be more flavorful, small wontons but they do give you about 6 wontons in the large size to go. read more

Always great. A highlight of my visits to Penfield. Delicious, tender pork ribs. The very best eggplant with garlic sauce. Generous portions, welcoming service. read more

Wish I read reviews before ordering, chicken sesame was not eatable, couldn't even chew it. There are enough mentions about the chicken being bad in reviews, they need to do something to fix the problem. Seafood casserole had a really weird smell and odd taste, certainly not made fresh. Too bad, its a neighborhood restaurant that I would love to support but won't be going back. read more

I've visited Hong Wah and got take out several times and have always left pleased. I'm sad that they no longer have a dine-in option, but I can understand since it allows them to focus on food instead of everything that goes with a sit-down restaurant. The meals are always perfectly cooked with great portion sizes. I placed my order tonight for myself, my parents, and my girlfriend, who is visiting amid her PhD studies. Hong Way makes scallion pancakes, which I absolutely adore and cannot find anywhere else. My mother prefers their beef & broccoli as well as their egg rolls. My girlfriend has tried several different dishes, including the Pad Thai chicken. It smelled quite spicy, but the cooked flavor was perfectly balanced. Their friend rice dishes are also a great balance of ingredients. And my father loves their beef Lo Mein, eating the entire dish in one sitting with how great it was. Highly recommend Hong Wah for take-out both for their service and the fantastic quality of their food. They've always been a favorite of the Chinese restaurants on the East Side of Rochester and I plan to continue getting food from them anytime I need to feed a large group. read more

We had very good takeout including the sesame bean curd (great balance of sweet, sour and savory) and the mushroom and bok choi special (deliciously savory greens and mushrooms in a flavorful brothy sauce). The dry fried string beans are exactly the right texture but could use some more seasoning. I also loved that they gave us our order in a reused cardboard box instead of a plastic bag. read more

My husband and I have literally been talking about coming here for years! He tried to come here once and order inside, and had a very strange experience, so he left. The next time he pre-ordered on the phone, and that went much better. I got sesame tofu and scallion pancakes. The scallion pancakes were very good. The sesame tofu came in a cardboard container, which I don't like because it always makes it soggy. I prefer the plastic containers. It definitely was not my favorite sesame tofu. It was ok. The sauce was not great. My husband got egg foo young, calamari and a shrimp dish. He liked his much more than I liked mine. He is more into Chinese food than I am, and he noticed they had cheaper prices than other places. You get a smaller portion than some places, but he was ok with that, too. We haven't been back yet, so it wasn't anything he loved. I don't mind giving it another chance, but I personally probably wouldn't go back here. I'm sure my husband will pick it up again at some point. It's also still to go only. You can't dine it. read more

I have been going to Hong Wah for years and it is, hands down, my favorite Chinese restaurant in the Rochester area. The dining area is clean and neat, the staff, most of whom have been there as long as I can remember, and the owners, there every day, are all fantastic. I've sampled many dishes but always go back to the garlic chicken or shrimp in hot spicy sauce. An order of fresh spring rolls and pot of tea are a great addition to round out a meal. Everything is always fresh, hot and nicely presented... At a very reasonable price. For those who are so inclined, Hong Wah does offer adult beverages as well. Take out is efficient and orders are correct... That shouldn't have to be mentioned but, more and more, it's becoming a rare quality in a restaurant. Seriously, if you get take out, don't forget the fresh spring rolls... Yum! Hong Wah is great for a quick lunch, take out after a long day and a comfortable dinner with friends. Give them a try! read more

Hong Wah Restaurant - Chicken with Garlic Sauce - Chinese Near Me - Penfield, New York

We keep trying this place in hopes it will be better. Dishes with chicken or seafood have very little meat and mostly fillers, a ton of celery in one dish. Tastes high in sodium, and lacks flavor. Very tight squeeze between tables. Seems a bit unorganized. Rushed feeling. read more

Just tried them for lunch for the first time and the chicken was like rubber...so stingy, oily and tough...it was not good at all! The fried rice was a strange yellow color and completely flavorless...maybe 3 veggies in the whole dish...the small pieces of bell pepper. I tried it all and tossed it all in the garbage. I'm afraid Panda Express is looking pretty good although I wish I could spend my money locally. read more

In my, opinion, the best Chinese take out in Penfield, evidenced by the fact that they never seem to have a lack of customers! Consistently good food backed by consistently good service keeps us coming back over and over again. read more

I may forget to check in every time I still to get orders to go. Vickie & Kevin are hustling to keep the to go orders flowing as smoothly as possible during Covid. They're not open for dine in but that hasn't asked the number of orders the prepare and serve by much. Prime need to learn to clear away from the door. If you placed your order already, take a seat in one of the boys, facing out, so there's some social distancing and other people can come in and go out. If you need to place an order, stand in Socially distanced line extending into the dining room so Vickie can take your order. Then go sit down. Vickie is very good at checking in who is waiting and what they have in order. Kevin is non-stop on the phone taking orders to go. The food is a good as ever. A little (un)common courtesy by the Katrina can help keep everyone safe. read more

Hong Wah Restaurant - Chinese Near Me - Penfield, New York

Worst Chinese restaurant ever! They served our food in takeout containers with one small appetizer plate. . Warm water served in disposal coffee cups. My sesame chicken was like chewing on rubber. Lemon chicken was dry was toast. . I suspect they precook the chicken only to reheat it again in the fryer. Disgusting! The owner and his wife are extremely deceptive! They really don't care. It's the money they want. read more

Food is always good. While only take out now, the restaurant is always clean and kitchen odors stay in the kitchen. Service is friendly.

Half the restaurant was partitioned off. Hot and sour soup and sesame chicken was okay. Strangely, food was served in takeout containers without plates. Overall, not a good experience. Service was fine. read more

Disappointing. I was visiting my sister in Penfield, and she suggested we get some takeout here. The owners are very lovely people. I wish I could say the same thing about their food. Some suggestions: You're apparently a Chinese restaurant so why are you also making Thai food? My sister's "Pad Thai w/Chicken" did not resemble one of my favorite dishes. It was tasteless with few of the spices required for this dish. My sister had a few bites and threw it away. Same goes with my "Cashew Chicken." This dish had the requisite red pepper icon next to its name, notifying customers that the dish was spicy. Au contraire. I've had mashed potatoes with more spice. And the chicken was way too chewy. Like my sister, I threw it in the trash. Oh, and how can you mess up fried rice? At least we had some leftover pizza from Perri's Pizza. Yum. Up your game, Hong Wah. This is 2022. Everybody is a foodie now. You need to serve great food. read more

This is only my 3rd time here since I just moved closer. I love their food here! The prices aren't bad and the food was freshly made and hot! I got the Sesame Chicken which had a nicely sweet sauce and broccoli. It was delicious as was the plain fried rice, egg rolls and crab rangoon. They also had it ready when I got there. I have leftovers for tomorrow that I am definitely looking forward to! read more

Hands down best Chinese food I've ever had. The staff is very professional and friendly as well :)

Moved to the area 2 years ago. Thought we would try this local Chinese place. I'm not doing a long review, but the food was really, really bad. Chicken was super fatty, all dark meat lots of skin and very stringy. Just really horrible. read more

This is our go to Chinese Restaurant. The food is excellent. Vicki runs the restaurant like a well oiled machine. Multi-tasking master! Some of our faves include egg rolls, fried dumplings, sweet & sour chicken, pork lo-mein, sesame chicken, and moo shu pork. They offer fried rice or white with meals, sadly no brown rice. We arrived at the restaurant tonight to dine in as we had several weeks ago however they have gone back to take-out only for the time being. So if you want to dine-in I suggest calling as their website and FB is typically not updated. read more
