Everything was DELICIOUS I found this place by accident and I'm glad I did. I haven't had such delicious Chinese food since I left Manhattan.Chinatown. It was so delicious and service was fast and friendly..... My new favorite place...I just I lived closer...definitely worth the trip read more

Saw some good reviews about this eatery, so I had to try it. Went on a Saturday for lunch with a friend. The place is small but was decently packed. They offer dim sum, so we had some roast pork buns as appetizers. The buns had very little filling and the bread was a bit dry, as if the buns had been sitting in the warmer for awhile. (They are displayed in a warmer as you enter the restaurant.) There is no lunch menu on weekends, so we ordered from the regular menu. Prices averaged $17 to $20 per entree with seafood options averaging $23-$25. All meals are served with white rice. There are no options to switch to fried rice, unless you want to order it as an entree. My friend loves orange chicken, so that's what she ordered. Since the eatery is touted for its roast duck and roast pork, I ordered the latter. We shared both. The pork was a bit salty and a tad dry. And it needed more of it's glaze. Though I am not a fan of orange chicken, this was one of the best I have had. It was sweet, but not overly done. And the coating was light and crispy. The portions were large. We both ate and took home leftovers for our husbands. Service was spotty and rushed with only two people taking care of all the tables. I never got a straw for my glass of water, and it took a few requests to get chopsticks. One appetizer, two entrees, tax, and tip was about $57. read more

We drove an hour to HK City BBQ, a small, family-run hole-in-the-wall tucked into an old strip mall. I've been here a couple of times before, and while they do some things really well, other items can be hit or miss. What I highly recommend: the Cantonese wonton soup for two. The dumpling wrappers are perfectly thin, and the wonton filling is flavorful and well-seasoned. The yu choy is sautéed simply with fresh sliced garlic -- fresh, vibrant, and exactly how it should be. And the water chestnut pudding is THE BEST. It's such a hard-to-find dim sum item, and honestly one of the main reasons we're willing to travel this far to eat here. Unfortunately, the biggest disappointment was the char siu (chashu). I ordered a pound to go, and when I got home, it turned out to be mostly hardened, fatty, gristly pieces. I ended up throwing most of it away. That was especially frustrating considering my girlfriend and I left a $30 tip on a $100 bill. To be fair, most Chinese restaurants aren't known for warm service, but our waiter was friendly and attentive, and he did a good job. Overall, I'll return for the specialties they execute well -- but I'll definitely skip the char siu next time. read more

From the moment you walk in, it's a welcoming environment. As always food is absolutely amazing, superb to many places down south. Their Dim-Sum Menu has a great variety of different plates that are very well portioned. Everything is made fresh and absolutely delicious every single time. Forever my go-to for Asian cuisine! read more

One of genuinely authentic Chinese restaurants in South Florida. Hot and Sour Soup in as authentic as you find. Their Dim Sum menu is top notch. Soy Sauce chicken, roast pork and duck hangs for purchase. I've eaten here for decades! read more

Their service is fantastic! Friendly and attentive. The girl nicely and preciously and carefully packed up our leftovers so I really appreciate that. We used to live in Margate but we've move out a decade ago but every time we visit, we would try to come dine here. I'm not sure the food was as good as I hoped this time. The wrappings of the shu mai and the shrimp dumplings were tough after the food got cold. Usually the wrapping gets cold but not hard and tough. The pork ribs with black bean sauce, had no black beans what so ever. The steam bbq pork buns and the roasted pork buns, both had barely any fillings, just dough, and the steam bun's dough got really chewy and tough when it got cold. To me, the fried shrimp balls were very salty. I did really like the fact that they provided us a bowl of duck sauce and ginger scallion sauce for the roast duck. They asked if we wanted white rice and they didn't charge us for it so that's nice because some restaurants ask you if you want something and add the cost without telling you it's not free. We still like the place. I'm sure the next time we come visit we'll eat here again. read more

My husband and I stopped in here for an early dinner and fell in love with this quaint spot! The staff were so friendly and accommodating with helping us choose what to order. We settled on the classics: Honey Garlic Chicken, WonTon soup (not pictured), Shrimp Toast and Dim Sum. We split everything and it was more than enough as the portions were generous. I also really enjoyed my personal tea pot with hot tea! Our entire bill with tip (22%) came to $35! I can't remember that last time we spent that little on eating out and left full. We will definitely be back. read more

Here again and of course everything was delicious. We ordered Beef Chow Fun with Black Bean, Triple Salt and Pepper Seafood with Squid, Shrimp, and Scallops, and Chinese Broccoli. The Beef was very tender and the dish was very generous. The Seafood was cooked perfectly, with large shrimp and scallops. We ask for the Chinese broccoli be cut in small pieces because ot usually is cut in large stalks. The three of us weren't able to finish and took about half home. Delicious. read more

Authentic and delicious Chinese cooking - a rare find in South Florida. This restaurant has been around for generations but with changing ownership through the years. Luckily the food remains good and the chef is still doing a great job bringing traditional and Americanized dishes to customers. If you're looking for take out style entrees lime beef with broccoli or sweet and sour pork, they have it. If you're looking for something more authentic like ginger scallion lobster or bird's nest, they also have it. They offer dim sum all day and have fresh BBQ meats hanging on display. Unfortunately the Sunday late afternoon we dined in, the BBQ duck was already sold out. If you're going for the BBQ options, maybe call before to make sure it's still available. The beef tendon stew casserole was super meaty and tender. The flavors were rich. The chicken salted fish tofu casserole was delicious, not overly salty but still have plenty of umami. The BBQ pork was juicy and smokey. The XO seafood chives stir fry was my favorite, loaded with big pieces of fish and lots of chives but it was a little too oily. The beef chow fun was a little on the bland side but lots of bean sprouts, tender beef and squishy soft noodles. The portion sizes are great for the prices. Will definitely be back again soon! read more

We had a much better experience here compared to a few years back... Our service was fine -- we were greeted immediately and seated. We had friendly fast service -- unlike the rude lady who waited on us last time. Met a couple friends for lunch and we all ordered off the lunch menu. The pork with mixed veggies was the best of the offerings we chose, followed by my cashew chicken (with lots of nuts). The gal who ordered the lomein said it was rather plain -- but that's as the dish usually is done. I also ordered an item from the dim sum menu to take home. The turnip cake was quite tasty re-heated (my breakfast this morning!). As long time (as in forever/since they first opened) customers, I'm pleased to know we will be back sooner rather than later. read more

Authentic local Cantonese family-style restaurant! Great food all-around especially if you can order off the "Chinese" menu and not your Americanized staples!

Update: we returned for dinner, the Peking Duck and although they didn't serve it w cucumber it was overall very good, and we added the soup for an additional $15. The other dishes however fell short... Egg roll: fresh but all veggies no minced pork 3.5/5 Chicken n Broccoli 3/5 Clams w black bean: had sand and not properly washed but flavor was good 3.75/5 Young chow fried rice: 2/5 no wok hai whatsoever Beef chow fun 5/5 they pull their own noodles and has wok hai Sautéed snow pea tips: 2/5 no flavor and definitely no garlic Sweet n sour pork Hong Kong style: cornstarch batter as opposed to flour, something was amiss 2.75/5 Beef w baby bok choy: good just not great 3.5/5 Egg tart: 1/5 all pastry shell with barely any custard filling...you could tell it was the last batch and they filled just enough to squeeze out another order when clearly there was not enough with pastry that is always pale and undercooked. Service was a struggle, older gentleman seemed overwhelmed. Overall the group was not impressed. It is good for select dishes only! Service was a struggle, older gentleman seemed overwhelmed.

Friends recommended Hong Kong City BBQ saying it's a little far but worth the ride to this authentic Chinese Restaurant. We got a group of ten of us together and enjoyed the large round table with a lazy Susan in the center. The restaurant is right off the turnpike with a large parking lot in front. The Chinese BBQ looked appealing, a specialty & unlike other Florida Chinese restaurants. Upon entering this rather plain free standing restaurant, my eyes were drawn to the glass case containing hanging BBQ ducks, pork and ribs. This is the first local Chinese restaurant that barbeques their food in the traditional manner. Our waiter filled the Lazy Susan with plates, cutlery, glasses of water, tea, duck sauce, and mustard. The menu was huge there were pages and pages of food that were well organized. I started with a wonton soup, which was served hot. My husband and I shared an order of spareribs that were a little fatty and not that meaty. We shared a Peking Duck, which was a little difficult to put together myself with the lazy Susan moving. Friends enjoyed shrimp and lobster sauce, Mongolian beef, tofu & vegetables, General Tao's chicken, and beef fried rice. Portions were enormous, we all brought food home. Service was very attentive and prices were very reasonable. read more

Located in Margate on 441 before Commercial BLVD. Hong Kong City BBQ has been opened for I wanna say over 20 years but it probably changed ownership quite a few times. Typical Chinese restaurant with pretty good and tasty dishes. They also offer Dim Sum and roasted duck and BBQ pork. I was in the area so I stopped by to take away some duck and a bit of dim sum. The lady at the front door was very nice and polite. read more

Been to this restaurant many times and they are consistently great. Friendly, busy faces greet and seat you. Food is brought to you quick enough. Delicious items: crispy noodles with seafood; crispy duck; fried rice; green beans with pork. All great choices. Must say that this time the spareribs were dry and overcooked but that's a one time imperfection. Give them a try!! read more

We were here for the early bird specials (ends at 6 PM) and decided to choose from these items. My wife had the Cashew Nut Chicken and I had the Rainbow shrimp. We opted for the white rice. It also comes with a choice of soup and an egg roll. Hot tea came with the meal also. Everything was wonderful. Portion size good for an early bird, white table cloth service and a very attentive server Lily made this an instant favorite for our Chinese go to place read more

Inconsistent... sometimes it great and other times you're be embarrassed if you take someone there after swearing it was good then it's burnt, old, stale and overcooked. Be weary of delivery better to pick up and inspect your food before you leave read more

Valentine's Day 2025. Made a reservation and we're seated within 15 minutes. We started with shrimp dumplings that were very good. Onto the 3 1/2 pound lobster expertly prepared with ginger and scallion. We could not have been happier with the lobster, the waitress brought it out so we could see the size and how lively it was. We ordered a side of eggplant with beef and a roast pork lo mein. Everything was flavorful and on point. The venue will make you feel like you're in Chinatown in Manhattan. They have duck and ribs hanging in the window as you enter. It's not fancy by any means but the food is very good. Thank you, Nancy! read more

Most of the food we ordered from here today was flavorless and really seemed undercooked. The sweet and sour chicken had tons of breading with chicken that didn't taste like anything. The pork fried rice was weak in taste and didn't seam that fried. No smoky flavor like cooked in a real wok. The chicken fried rice was awful! Not only were the pieces of chicken weirdly long and stringy, they were slimy with no flavor at all. It's like they didn't fry this food at all, just boiled it or didn't cook it enough. The wonton soup broth had very little odd taste. The sweet and sour sauce was just sweet, also lacking flavor. The egg rolls seemed too crunchy and heavy. Needless to say, I would avoid this place at all costs. read more

Whenever I try a new Chinese restaurant, I always order the house special Egg Foo Young. It's pretty hard to mess up EFY but at this place it wasn't anything special. Kinda boring and weird gravy. Don't know if I'll give them another chance. House special usually means it has chicken, pork, and shrimp but theirs was mostly bamboo shoots. read more
