Had an order delivered on the night before New Year's Eve. The order arrived in a timely fashion, hot and freshly cooked. Chicken wings crisp but juicy, likewise the egg rolls, chop suey had ample meat and the vegetables were perfectly stirfried. We also tried the spicy string beans w onion and that dish was spiced just right with pepper flakes and hot oil. Added to this, the house provided an order of chicken lo mein to honor a menu coupon. From placing the order through delivery and enjoying our meals, Hong Kong Cafe provided a fine experience. read more

Sadly, food has been steadily going downhill. The quality of chicken used in the chicken dishes has always been marginal but until recently the food has been ok. Unfortunately, I ordered lobster sauce. It's nearly inedible. There is very little flavor. The liquid it's in tastes like dishwater because of the lack of flavor. All it tastes like is unseasoned cooked meat(pork?). I'm being generous with this description. I showed coworkers what they served me and they were wondering why it was so off color and watery. It's so bad I want to return it. If I didn't think it would be a fight I'd return the meal. Instead I may have to start hopping into the car and heading to one of the other local places for lunch. read more

First timers there and absolutely love it. The seating inside is great, the food and sushi definitely was great I enjoyed everything. The staff here are nice and welcoming. Definitely 5 star for me read more

I ordered food for a party of 30. I ordered some pu pu platters, fried rice, loo mein, beef & broccoli etc.... I thought the food was excellent quality & quantity. Don't know why I they only have a 3.5 rating. read more

Good customer service, fast service, reasonable price. Clean environme nt, good food , clear menu. I go there again.

food fair to poor. Always seem to get the order wrong and then argue with you saying you the customer ordered wrong thing. would NOT recommend at all!!!!!!!! read more

I've been eating at this place for about 10 years. I can understand raising your prices due to what's going on in the economy right now but a $4-5 dollar increase on all items is unheard of! Example, large chicken finder in December cost $11, now 2 months later they are almost $16! For chicken fingers! Portions got a lot smaller on items as well. Going elsewhere from now on! read more

Horrible experience would be a huge understatement. I order dinner through DoorDash, and received a text message that "Hong Kong has confirmed your order". I tracked the order being prepared for an hour when it then changed to "order complete". I called to let them know that the order never came and a women apologized that they were very busy, which was ok with me. Then a man got on the phone to tell me that they canceled the order (again, that didn't happen it was confirmed) because they don't deliver that far. I live 9 minutes away. I told him that isn't really how DoorDash works and they shouldn't be on there if they are going to just not deliver meals with no notice just because they don't feel like it. I was screamed over to the point I took the phone from my face and said "wow f- off" quietly as I hung up ready to move on with my life. Not so much - the owner, I presume, called back immediately to argue more and curse me out for being rude to his employee, going as far as to call me "a f-ing animal". I hope he finds god. Good chicken wings though. read more

Hong Kong Cafe - Chinese Near Me - Danvers, Massachusetts

Food was not fresh. Even the alcohol was compromised.. Mai tai was rum and oj. Will not be back

We are new to the area and received the Hong Kong Cafe menu in the mail so we decided to try it. Small quaint eat in restaurant. We ate at the bar and the service was friendly and great. The food and drinks were also very good. We will be back! read more

Ok I am officially done with this place. I have not ordered here in years as I felt the service went downhill. The last time I ordered was a few years ago and I ordered online, waited like 30 mins and then went there only to find out they didn't put the order in and I was stuck there for another 30 mins. So fast forward to yesterday. Had to go to Christmas party, wife asks me to order chicken wings, I hesitantly order from this place as it was quick and the other place I like was pricey as I was ordering a few orders of chicken wings. So I order. Wife goes to pick it up. I meet her at the party, we open it and sure enough. They f'd up the order. Gave us chicken fingers instead and it was a small order. Chicken fingers sucked also. Dry etc.. definitely way overpaid for what I got. Anyway I am done with this place. Should have followed my gut which was telling me "don't do it!" While I was online ordering. Oh well. read more

I've ordered delivery from here on an almost weekly basis and found the food quality to be inconsistent. When its good its great. When not, its is disgusting. One of my staples, beef teriyaki, is normally the best that I've ever had. On several occassions, however, it came through like shoe leather. Last night I ordered several items all but one of which were very good. The "Orange Flavor Beef" was utterly disgusting. The beef was fatty and chewy with no flavor. A call to the restaurant was responded with "you should not order something that you do not like". I explained that I had ordered it before there and liked it. He responded with "there's nothing I can do". While their delivery is normally very good and prompt, we will not be ordering from them again. My response to them is "this is something that I can do". read more

My wife and I ordered delivery on Saturday. We placed our order over the phone and included the tip for the driver, as we were paying by credit card. When the driver arrived he says to my wife Aren't you going to tip me. She then explains to him she gave him a tip through the order already and that it was included on our total. He then looks at the receipt and checks it make sure she wasn't lying to him This is completely rude and unprofessional Hope he enjoyed his tip because you lost our business We will never be ordering from you again. read more

Not a bad Chinese restaurant. I was in the Danvers area for a conference and I stumbled upon this place as I needed a quick lunch fix. Hong Kong Cafe was exactly what I needed. A fast lunch choice! The Cafe is very clean and family owned. I was quickly seated in a large booth near the window. I ordered L21, Szechuan spicy beef w/ pork fried rice and chicken fingers. Water, tea, and a local paper entertained me for 10 minutes and out came my lunch, piping hot. For a quick Tuesday lunch for $7.75, lunch was delicious and filling. Not greasy. Good attentive service. I like how they service the duck sauce in a maple syrup decanter. Cute. In and out in under 30 minutes. Now that is a business lunch. read more

Due to Covid I always order takeout. I put my order in online and have never had an issue with it. Food is pretty good.

Excellent food. Had to wait a while for refills while we were only ones in restaurant, but still very good food.

Our first night in Danvers we had no idea what would be opened or where to go. My sister and I stumbled into Hong Kong Cafe an we were so glad that we did! The food was exceptional, portions were large, and the price was very reasonable. Probably the best crab rangoons I have ever eaten. read more

See all

You might get somebody to answer the phone that actually can speak and understand English

Tried it for the first time yesterday. Got the chicken chow mein but they cook it very differently here than anywhere else. They should, in my opinion, inform customers. It wasn't what I wanted. Got an egg roll with it but it was lower quality than other places. The staff was nice but unfortunately the food is below average. read more

Absolutely horrible. I placed an order for delivery online FOUR HOURS AGO and it has yet to arrive. I've called to check the status of my order five times and it wasn't until an hour ago that they told me that my order would be made next... an hour later it still hasn't arrived and now they're not picking up their phone. I just want to cancel my order and get a refund but I can't do that if they don't answer their phone read more

Service was fantastic but DO NOT order sushi. Our party finished their food by the time our sushi came out, raw sushi mind you. Our parties apps and meals came out and they finished well before our sushi came out. Once again service was fantastic, but I would never send some one here for sushi. read more

This is the worst place out of all the Chinese places in the whole Danvers area. After telling them that one of my kids has seafood allergies , they still managed to cook seafood and the regular food together and put it all in one box together. After that my son got an allergic reaction and needed to be brought to the nearest ER. When we came back to them to speak to the owner/manager, they refused to speak to us and instead called Danvers police. I couldn't believe how cheap rude obnoxious and disrespectful people at this place are . I don't recommend anyone going to this place read more

Weak Mai Tais, unfriendly service, food was meh (I left half of my combination plate). My dining companions were equally unimpressed. I see no reason to return. read more

Horrible and borderline rude service. We waited and waited at every step. My son's dish came 20 minutes before my sushi, which didn't taste fresh and I'm pretty sure was previously frozen. When I inquired 15 minutes after the other dish had arrived, I was treated like I was being extremely rude. I was explaining to my son that dishes are supposed to come out around the same time. The staff had no knowledge of this apparently peculiar American expectation. Server never came by, and party next to us were acting like they were celebrating a drunken high school reunion. It was deafening and nobody seemed to notice or care. We considered asking to change tables but decided to cut our losses and just get out. Overall my worst restaurant experience in the last year. And don't order the previously frozen sushi. read more

Worst fucking service ever at Hong Kong cafe in Danvers! I just tried calling to place an order for my boyfriend and the guy who picked up the phone wouldn't take my order and hung up the phone on me only because I gave him my bf's number and not my number that I'm calling from. I called back calmly. Me: hi, I just tried to place an order and you hung up on me? Him: yeah well I'm busy, and im not gonna take your order if you don't give me YOUR number. Me: ok, I'll give you my number but it's not gonna make sense because the order is for someone else. Can I give you the other number also thats gonna be receiving the food? Him: (rudely yelling at me) no, if your boyfriend want the food. Tell him to call with his number!! Why can't he call himself? Me: he works in a company where he can't take his phone out whenever he wants dude! Him: (continues to talk to me rudely) well i can't take your order, you have him call or no food. At this point I'm pissed off now. How hard is it to take down 2 numbers? I will NEVER order from here again! read more

Typical greasy Americanized Chinese food, oh also Japanese and an assortment of other things thrown in. I liked the sushi we ordered but their sauteed udon noodles were gross gross gross. Everything smelled or tasted like onions, including the fortune cookies, it was clear whoever packed our order had also just gotten done chopping onions and then handled everything in the bag. I smelled like onions for days. That's really not a big deal, but the gross udon noodles were. The house fried rice was really good and the teriyaki beef was ok. I can order Americanized Chinese food of a similar quality and quantity from places closer to home, and sometimes if I'm feeling saucy, better Americanized Chinese food. I'll skip ordering from here again. read more

So, when ordering Chinese food, I expect a certain level of flavor. Especially when ordering spicy dishes! But, none was to be found. I'll pass. read more

We love this classic American Chinese restaurant. Normally eat in is fun but with the new normal we enjoy take out. Classic egg rolls and house fried rice. read more

Decent Chinese food. Huge portions. Bartender was really nice. In all, a middle of the road joint but this is to be expected at a place like this read more

This place isn't good there hot and sour soup was awful had a strange flavor there Peking ravioli was ok I was hungry and pass This place all the time and finally decided to check it out may be it was an off day? I'll give it another try sometime before I totally write them off. read more

Nice little place in downtown Danvers. It's a Chinese/ Japanese place, not unlike a lot of places. Difference is, they actually cook everything correctly. Seemly most places have something they screw up( undercooked rice, Burnt steak teriyaki, etc.), but this place does not have one. At least not one that I've discovered yet. The owner is a very friendly man, always making you feel welcome. Couple of tables and a small bar make up this place, although it is primarily a take out spot. Good food, good price, this is my go to for take out Chinese food. read more

Used to be good, now has falled WAYYYY by the wayside. When they changed to "New" Hong Kong Cafe, it was amazing. Now, the last few times or so that I've experienced this place, it's been nothing but a shame. The most recent one: Ordered 2 plates, no big deal, right? I got the broccoli chicken combo, which had a good amount of rice...and maybe 4 broccoli florets? Along with 6 pieces of thinly sliced chicken? Had enough sauce for triple that amount, at least. The lady-friend-person that I'm acquainted with for the long haul got a lo-mein and rice combo. It didn't come with lo-mein, and the appetizers also weren't abundant. Seems like they've been making these mistakes for a good while now. Sad and disappointed, we won't be coming back here for a good long while. There's a certain place close by that does WAY better in terms of quality, and we'll be going there. read more

Went here the other day. Food was good and tasty. Only issue is the inconsistency. You can have a great meal today and a poor meal tomorrow. Hit or miss. But when they are on their game, food is good. read more

Hong Kong Cafe never disappoints! Many options to choose from including Chinese and Japanese food! Always my go-to spot when i'm in the mood for crab rangoon, miso soup, and family style tofu! Definitely recommend it :) read more

Food is terrible here, even for mall-style American Chinese food. The rice was bland and over cooked. The general gaus tofu had absolutely no veggies in it (most places usually do broccoli), and was tofu sitting in a gelatinous sauce of dissolved batter. The sauce wasn't even reminiscent of general gaus, and tasted exactly like duck sauce (extremely sweet and no spice). The ma po tofu was also extremely bland and lackluster dish for the price. Crab Rangoon was literally just cream cheese. Strongly recommend against tofu dishes. Will not order from here again. read more

So I have been ordering from Hong Kong Cafe for awhile. They have always been good but tonight was beyond amazing. I called. The guy asked for my phone number and had all my info. I ordered. They delivered quickly. I realized I forgot something and called to order more. I got a different person and she took my order. Five minutes later the guy called me back concerned that they had missed something. I told him it was my miss and he still took care of me! I don't know who the guy was...but to the owners....he has made me a fan for life with his service!!! I'm putting my name on this so the owners can look up the order and thank him! Jennifer Soest. read more

Came here after a long absence....was very very disappointed.....it was Sunday so they only have dinner specials.....it was half the portion of a luncheon special.....rice dry, teriyaki fatty....left and felt like I hadn't eaten anything.....this will be my last visit.....on a happier note I will say the service was excellent read more

Sushi was overall gross. I'm a bit of a sushi snob, so maybe my expectations were too high, but honestly it wasn't even average. Uncooked salmon over white rice ball: rice was mushy, salmon was warm and also mushy. Same thing with uncooked tuna. A roll I had seemed to have diced tuna, crispy wontons, and avocado. The flavors were good! But the rice was mushy and so was the fish. Combined with the avocado, which is always soft/mushy, I wasn't impressed. Didn't finish it and I spent $25 on it! Absurd delivery minimum, especially for trash like this. read more
