Hot Chopsticks Kitchen (HCK) .. was not... good... Or rather, I should say the appetizers we've tried were not good. And I hate to say it, because I really wanted to enjoy it. We wanted to get our kids some snacks while we (my wife and I ) were trying to enjoy some lattes from Prelude upstairs. Which, I dunno why we thought that we're allowed to enjoy anything in peace, because we are parents of young children, after all... Anyway, I ordered three appetizers, all things that my kids normally love (especially from places like Szechuan Bistro): - Fried Egg Rolls - Crab Rangoon - Fried Dumpling The problem from the outset was that I could tell that the oil used to deep fry the food was clearly not hot enough when the items were dropped in. In all fairness to HCK, I walked in and placed the order right when they opened the doors (we weren't in a rush though, we didn't pressure them to get the stuff to use sooner or anything). But because of the oil not being hot enough, everything was greasy, soggy, and barely hot (temperature wise). The only item of the three that was actually good (in terms of flavor; they were all room temp despite having just come out of the deep fryer) where my kids finished them, was the Fried Dumplings. The Fried Egg Rolls were according to my son, "chopped" which... hold on, I have to google this Gen Alpha nonsense, I dunno what it means. Okay, I'm back. "Chopped" means "undesirable." But I understood what he meant because as soon as I bit into it, I made a face that agreed that it was chopped. It tasted spoiled. But my tolerance is higher than his for sub-par food, so I ended up eating it anyway. But by far, the worst thing was the Crab Rangoon. I've never had a Crab Rangoon that was equal parts: 1. burnt AND undercooked 2. hot AND cold 3. crumbly AND mealy (almost like cannoli dough or something?) 4. tough/crunchy on the outer edges AND super soft/soggy in the middle It was legitimately the worst Crab Rangoon we've ever eaten. Awful in every way. read more

Incredibly fresh and fast food. Love the location, especially since it's in the same facility as Prairie. Kind staff. Some seating in the dining area. Love that you can take the food elsewhere in the building. read more

I've ordered to go from here a few times and the food is really good! I always get the egg rolls and the pork vermicelli. The portion sizes are great and the meat is very flavorful. The egg rolls are fresh and crispy. I've walked past the storefront and it looks super cute, they have a decent amount of seating which is nice. Highly recommend this spot for good Vietnamese food! read more

Super solid choice for Asian fare near downtown in auto alley. I like the pho and fried rice but the bahn mi is the star of the show. Great beer next door as well. read more

I love this little food court because you can play pickleball or grab a beer next door, then come back for comforting Asian food. It's such a fun setup. I especially love their pho, pad see ew, and egg rolls. read more

Consistent and quick - Pho for your soul: I've gotten Pho take out regularly from Hot Chopsticks. I love it every time. They have all the ingredients you expect with your Pho and what I consider the right proportions. They do combine the hoisin sauce and Sriracha, so if you only plan to use one, ask for separate containers, The Pho is really tasty and makes me happy every time. They are always easy and prompt and never had a wrong order. A staple for sure - especially whenever I'm not feeling well. Pho will cheer and clear those sinuses! read more

The food was delicious and definitely can see myself coming here again. I like that you can take your food out to the tables outside of the restaurant. The only thing I wish was different is that they sell their soda only in cans instead of as fountain drinks. read more

They are new to me... But not new. My new favorite place for pho. Great pricing. Great flavor. And they share a lobby with one of the best breweries in Okc! read more

Great Vietnamese food and generous portions! Their beverages are also very innovative (including a mango smoothie that is slightly spicy in which you can dip a candy they give you). Their dry flat noodles are also excellent. Service is order from a kiosk and the interior is spacious and you can also use tables out in the hall. Highly recommended! read more

Quick stop for lunch. This is the place to go. Service was fast and efficient. Food was seasoned and absolutely delicious. My team cannot wait to stop by and eat here again. Pork egg rolls crunchy and cooked just right. It was a little noisy, but we were still able to talk and get work done. read more

Flavor and freshness come to mind when I eat at Hot Chopsticks kitchen. I visited for a third time yesterday. Considering I live in a Vietnamese cuisine meca in Yukon, 4 restaurants within a mile of my home...all great. This place has my attention. I was in the mood for Bun vermicelli noodles w veggies and pork comes w egg roll. Noodles were perfect veggies fresh and pork was tender and flavorful. The egg roll was delicious. Great food destination!!! read more

Delicious little Asian noodle stand and my go-to when I hang out at Prairie Artisan next door. Located inside the 8th street market, it's a nice place to order from when you don't want to consume beer on an empty stomach. Plus the food is really flavorful. read more

I have been here twice, and their pho and the vermicelli bowl are pretty good. I got their tofu and vegetables pho this past visit, but it is pretty bland. Lots of veggies and noodles, but the broth leaves room for improvement. So, I'll probably stick with their pho with meat instead. The staff is friendly, and the service is quick. I was sad when they replaced Magasin Table, but for Midtown, it is still a quick and decent place for Vietnamese food. read more

Finally got to try out this place that used to be magasin table. Food was ok. I find the pho broth kind of greasy. There were no grilled marks on the grilled shrimp spring roll. It was interesting that the shaken beef was served with both rice & fries. Beef was a tag too sweet & kind of chewy. It's a self serve kind of place. Will probably not return. read more

The food was excellent. I had the chicken and rice. The chicken was very flavorful. It's more of a food court style order and eat. It's in a little business building where there are multiple businesses within the same building. There is also a brewery there where you can sit and order your food. The staff from hot chopsticks came down to the brewery to bring our food and pick up our plates as well. They were super nice. Would highly recommend this place. I don't eat Vietnamese very often but my friends that were with me do, they both had pho and really enjoyed it. read more

Food was decent, not what I was expecting, just a walk up place. Nice server, but not a ton of selection.

Super friendly service, nice menu, large portion of pho, very excellent meal. Love the trivia offered next door as well; you can eat as you play for free. Nobody gets uptight and a lot of cool food/drink! A+++ read more

Amazing food ! Brought my family in an will definitely be back Great service an a tranquil ambiance. read more

This is a cute little Vietnamese place in 8th Street Market. It's fast, casual, and yummy. The food had great flavor and large portions, especially for the price. There wasn't much in the way of actual service since the guy asked us to cash out on the little kiosk they have in the front and to get our own water out of the fridge, which was a little strange; we also had to take our own dishes over to a shelf on the other side of the restaurant when we were done. It seems set up best for people that want to get take out. Overall, if you're in the mood for some delicious Vietnamese food and don't really care about having a waiter, this is a good option. read more

Great food. Shrimp was fantastic best I've ever had and my husband's tofu veggie pho was scrumptious. She ate the whole bowl.

Newly opened spot near Prairie Artisan Ales fresh food and the guy running it was very kind and personable. Customer service was great. I would have liked to have had more flavor cooked into the noodles they were light on that pizzazz. I doctored it up with some Sriracha and Hoisin Sauce cause the flavor just fell a little flat however, it was fresh, made to order and the noodles did have a great texture to them and the vegetables were cooked perfectly to give you just the right amount of crunch. I'd definitely recommend giving it a whirl! read more

Can fat people eat here (reasonably)? 1 star: no 3: maybe 5: yes Answer: maybe. The price is a lot for the quantity but I was full at the end. I got sesame chicken. Almost all of it was cold but the chicken. It meh. p.s. the rating is about quantity, not quality read more

The restaurant is located in 8th street market & it's super cute! Minimal seating in the store however there are large bench tables in the market place to sit at. We ordered the beef short rib & steak pho & the grilled pork banh mi. Both were delicious & good portions. The short rib had the perfect amount of meat on it & was flavorful! You'll get a pager that beeps when your food is ready which is convenient so you can walk around & explore. They also offer a military discount! read more

Order at the counter or on a kiosk; menu available online or at the counter. Wings were good (not the best I've ever had, but good!), spring rolls bomb, and vermacelli bowl is the best in my opinion! Grab a beer at prairie and food at Hot Chopsticks and hang out for a while. Easy parking in the lot outside. Dog friendly. Come check it out! read more

It was a good experience, I'm from Boston, in OKC for business. My food was solid and slightly cheaper here that Boston

As you all know I rate when serice and food sucks, mostly. Snap-to! It's a Crab Rangoon amazing rating! 5.0/5.0!! I eat these everywhere and especially in Asian towns. This place is the best!! Enjoy! read more

This kitchen is located in the 8th Street Market building! I can only imagine the beautiful plating this could have been if I ordered "for here." Even in a styrofoam to-go container, this colorful combo looked, smelled, and tasted amazing. I ordered the orange chicken which cost me $15 and let me tell you--it was SO worth it!! You can taste the goodness (soy, orange, garlic) in the sauce and chicken! Hot Chopsticks is a MUST! read more

Maybe we haven't had pho in a long time, but my family and I really enjoyed the meal. The broth was amazing and they gave a good amount of noodles, meat, and veggies. Very delicious! read more

Absolutely the best bahn mi we have had in a long time. The roasted pork was flavorful and the baguette was fresh and crispy.

The food was so good and tasted really fresh and the lady I picked the food up from was super friendly as well!

Love their food! Their beef short rib pho the best! Super nice owners. Would highly recommend to everyone.

Really great find in OKC. It's quite hidden from the street and in a small independent shopping center but worth the hunt. The food was delicious. We had a Pho, a Bahn Mi, edamame and seasoned fries. All so delicious read more

This is such an amazing restaurant! The food is great and the portions are big. Highly recommend.
