I drop by the Hong Kong Restaurant a few times a year for a meal when I venture downtown and always feel like I 've stepped back in time...and I kinda like that! It 's not overly busy nor loud, I usually ask for a table by the front window, which is never a problem for the friendly, smiling hostess...I even like the faint sound of 'elevator music ' playing in the background...was that Ray Conniff and The Singers? LOL! Now I can 't comment on their 'traditional ' dishes but their 'Canadian-Chinese ' food has always been served fresh, hot and tasty to me...sweet n ' sour chicken balls, chicken chow mein, chicken fried rice, beef broccoli, almond soo guy, egg roll, spring roll, wanton soup, egg...
We stopped by this place on water street since my husband was craving chinese. Shoudl had known to trun back when the place was completely empty during peak dinner time. But we ordered anyway - the food was simply bland and tasteless - fried rice had no discernable taste and the shrimp no good and a bit slimy. The hostess was so kind and accomodating though so it is a shame the food was not good.
Fresh ingredients! Vegan options! I love the broth of their won ton soup and usually get the rice noodle dishes. If you like heat they have a great chili sauce to add to anything. Just ask! If you are calling for take out, try a second time if no answer during business hours.
Had a wedding reception at this restaurant. Best Chinese food ever with specialty dishes catered on requests. You can never find large round tables that can fit 12 to 14 people.. Love these round tables as everybody can chat with each other.. Highly recommended.

Got take out at Hong Kong Restaurant for dinner. The combination meal was inexpensive and came out fast. However, the food was rather bland and nothing really stood out.
Not too bad of an experience. Ordered some food to take home and it was alright. Nothing to be blown away by, but if you are craving Chinese this will certainly do
Hong Kong is one of the best Chinese restaurant in the downtown area. The food is awesome, the prices are fair and the staff are so nice. I give this place an A+
It's good food, you get what you pay for, The decor is a little dated and service was very good. I have to say thou the hot and sour soup is delicious

Best Chinese food in St.John's! Intimate, quiet and great service. Good value and excellent service! Dated but awesome food.
One of the best places in town to get authentic Cantonese Chinese food.
