First impression when seeing the food... It looks fresh and tasty. We ordered a few different items; orange chicken, Black pepper chicken, broccoli beef, sweet and sour chicken with fried rice and noodles. Also, we had ordered egg rolls though they were not ready so we patiently waited 5 minutes for those before taking our feast home. My verdict: the egg rolls were flavorless, we should have skipped the wait on those. Actually I have to say that everything we ordered (except the fried rice) was lacking in flavor. I was somewhat disappointed. On a good side the food was not heavy, the rice was very good and the look as I said was fresh. HK Express is ehh...average to me. I've definitely had better and wouldn't guarantee that I'd return. read more

Food is always hot and on time and delicious always curtious we over all love Hong Kong Express in riverside ca

I have been coming here for years. The food is good but they hired a new mexican girl who skimps you put MAJOR! Bring back the other mexican girl! She used to hook it up !! For the price I want a fat plate! Not a little bit of my 2 items. read more

Crazyyyyy how it's over 30 minutes before closing and we are sitting at the table finishing up eating and the staff decides to not only flip chairs already but also turn off lights and mop floor. Also turning off open sign and turning away costumers because they chose to remove left over food early and before the 30 minute mark. I've worked in the food industry for over 6 years and have also been a manager for over two years. Never experienced such disrespect with manager having crossed arms and eye balling us until we got up and left. This alone made our experience awful. read more

The food was pretty good. I had the Chow Main and the Garlic Chicken, both were taste if just a little grease.....but it is Chinese fast food and that is normal. The service on the other hand was not that great. The girl that helped me seemed put out by the fact she had to work and just was pretty rude the whole time. In conclusion, descent food....crappy service. read more

Worst Chinese fast food ever there was rotten bell pepper in king po shrimp... when I saw it in the king po shrimp I got sick to my stomach I wanted to thro up!!! I'll never buy food from there again!!! read more

I'm very disappointed this time. My coworkers and I always order food from this place, they are ok with timing but today they took about 1 hour. The rice was dry! And the orange chicken was extremely sweet and tough! Not recommending this place to any of my guest that arrive at the hotel I work at! read more

Hong Kong Express - Look a this egg shell and they mess up my order - Cantonese Near Me - Riverside, California

I ordered online at 6:20 and was given an arrival time of between 7:15 & 7:25. It's now 8:40 and I still have no food. I called at 7:40 and again at 8:30 and was simply told, "It's on its way." I don't care if it's the best food ever, I'm never ordering from this place again. Who knows if I'll ever get my food? read more

Ive been to countless Chinese food places in my lifetime, & this is One of the most disgusting Chinese food places I've ever been to.. Some of these dishes aren't even palatable, and I'm honestly not exaggerating. Idk if its the odd seasonings or lack there of, but I literally have to gulp some water after every bite to wash down the grossness. The mandarin chicken had so much fat, the orange chicken had more batter coated then the actual chicken,& the curry chicken was a disgrace. I took one bite and it was so terrible, I threw it away. The eggrolls & chow mein were bland and seemed undercooked but the fried rice was okay. Definitely never coming here.. read more

Little hole in the wall restaurant but definitely worth it. Customer service is great! My usual is the Hot & Sour soup- recommendation. Always served fresh and sizzling hot. Looks to be family owned. Been coming here a couple years now and never had a bad experience. Wont be disappointed if you come out here. read more

Not good. Not what I was expecting at all. Try a little more down the street idk what the place is called but it's right next to R Butger's drive thru. That place is super good & waaaay cheaper, & they pile the food on the plate! read more

This place is freakinn good I always skipped it because of its rating and look. But this is what fast food Chinese food should taste like. This place deserves 5 stars, all it needs is a modern look but same food. Some of your guys ratings are lame read more

The food was good, but a little too sweet. I appreciate a restaurant when I see a working kitchen so I know it's not all prepackaged processed food. The cashier girl was cute with a cool tattoo. I hope I don't regret not asking for her number too much longer. read more

This place would definitely be an up one on Panda Express. Their portions are a lot bigger than what Panda would give and their price is a lot more reasonable. If I'm looking for a quick meal, this place is perfect to come to. Not a 5 star though... The girls working the counter can be pretty rude. Other than that, great place to come to. read more

Hong Kong Express - Chow mein, white rice, orange chicken and beef broccoli! - Cantonese Near Me - Riverside, California

Good ole chinese fast food joint. I came during lunch to get a 2 item combo. I got mandarin chicken Broccoli beef and half rice half noodles. Everything tasted good! Not sure why so many complaints on the price, Panda Express is priced higher. Coming back again soon. read more

Thee Most freshness and pure ingredients taste like the very best Chinese food I've ever had! I will definitely be going back actually I will have it delivered again because they were fast friendly and reasonably priced in fact they are very low priced for the quality you receive from Hong Kong express ! You will not be disappointed ! I can't post the photo because I ate it all without snapping a pic read more

A-OK - i have ordered from them a few times, and have always ordered big. $65 + orders. and i was happy with the food. tastes like regular chinese fast food. which was what i wanted and expected. and i was grateful just to have chinese food delivered! because i never find that in my area and there are times when i don't want to go out or am sick, or whatever, so i was just happy to get some decent chinese food! how ever i have had major problems: they don't speak english. don't answer the phone properly. just says 'hello'. (annoying) passes the phone around from employee to employee when trying to place order. don't even understand basic english for chinese food order, such as " one order of eggrolls, please" calls goes to their cell phone and you get disconnected often. and then you have to start over, because they don't remember you from 3 minutes ago. (LOL) once they delivered a completely different order (just soup) and took the guy a hour to come back with the correct one which was then 2 hours waiting for food? i STRONGLY suggest you order through the yelp site, it makes life easier. and the customer service will then deal with speaking to them on the ETA or items wrong on your order. over all, i would recommend them. because when you want your chinese food, and want it delivered, WHATHA GONNA DO???! LOL read more

Really good fast food. Servers are very kind and the food portions are AMAZING. This place is a must for students!

Price is a little high for the quality. Rice and noodles are average. BBQ pork tastes fake. Broccoli beef is ok. Rising savor is cheaper and gives more food. read more

This place never disappoints. Fresh food made to order. You can tell you're actually eating the meat you ordered. They have delivered food to me at the hospital as well. Huge portions. Restaurant is clean. Love it. read more

Food was over cooked not much flavor Had Orange chicken Pepper chicken Beef and broccoli Delivered fast read more

To be honest, the food didn't have any flavor. The only thing I liked was the teriyaki chicken. Orange chicken was nasty. The rice and chow mien lacked flavor. It was not good. Won't be eating here. read more

I throw up a lot and my mom I was horrible wish I could give it 0 stars yuck don't try it

I love coming here, I live close by and it has become a household favorite. I wouldn't call it authentic Chinese food, but it's better than Panda and the employees are always very kind and totally hook up the plates! You can't beat the price for the amount of food that you get. I have used the Yelp eats for both delivery and takeout and have always had amazing service that was both prompt and friendly. I will continue being a loyal patron as long as I live in the area! read more

I love the food here! I've never had any issues and we've brought our business here for a long time now. There is a new employee who started working here a few months ago who is always nice and courteous. She's an older lady with short hair. I don't know if she was having a bad day today but she was completely rude, disrespectful and made very discriminatory remarks to me! I always ask for less chow mein and substitute with more steamed rice instead (and I made sure to ask if this was ok the first time I did it) and ALL of the employees say yes, including her. When I went in today and asked for the same thing, she told me "you always ask for more and I give it to you but you don't pay me more with a tip". I told her "excuse me? What did you say?" And she replied "you always want more and you don't give me tip, but that's fine, that's how you are, what else do you want". I replied "I am not, nor have I ever asked for more. All I asked was for less chow mein and to substitute it with more rice instead " she ignored me and continued serving the rest of the food. I asked the cashier if the owner was there and she said "yes". While I waited for the owner, the lady started yelling more remarks "it's all your fault, it's people like you, your kind of people who do this"..... "we don't have money and you have money and it's people like you who do this"..... "thats fine that's fine your people always do this and we don't have money". I asked the cashier to please ask her to stop because I wasn't being disrespectful to her in any way nor was I saying anything to her throughout her rant. (Keep in mind there were at least 6 other customers in the restaurant at the time who just kept staring at her and she continued to yell at me and I stood there quietly). The owner came out and I explained the issue to him and told him she was disrespectful and inappropriate. He seemed more concerned with getting me out of there and tried to give me the food for free. I refused and told him he was missing the point. I told him and the cashier, who was translating a few things for him, that was the issue to begin with.... The employee is under the impression that I am trying to get more food for the same price and now he's trying to just give me the food for free. As I was speaking with him, she continued to yell things while serving the plates of other customers, and he didn't even turn to ask her to stop! The cashier said the food will be free and she kept apologizing and tried to even throw egg rolls into the bag. I kept handing her my card, mortified that the owner didn't even turn to tell the employee to be quiet, and asked her to charge my food. The owner at this point just walked back into the kitchen and didn't seem too concerned. Everyone was staring at us and I was fighting back tears. She refused and kept apologizing and said please take it, it's ok. She saw tears pooling in my eyes as I continued to beg her to charge my food and to take out the egg rolls she was trying to give me. She continued apologizing and asked me to just take it. I told her "please stop. Please just charge my food so I can go. I've never been so embarrassed in my life and I didn't even do anything wrong and she's still over there yelling". She finally saw how hard I was fighting the tears and heard my voice cracking and charged me for the food. The other employee started laughing and I told the cashier I wanted to leave a tip, but asked if she can please give it to the cook instead. The cashier thanked me and said she would give it to the cook. I cried all the way home and even now as I write this review. I've never been so mortified in my life. I don't want to stop coming here, but I will no longer accept her service and will ask for someone else to help me. The only thing I can do now is to make sure to leave a nice fat tip to the other employee instead of her. Sorry for my rant everyone, but I just didn't think she should have been so disrespectful. When she said "people like you, your kind of people" I don't know if she referred to Latinos, overweight (I'm a size 16), or a combination of it.... read more

I downloaded this app just to let you know about my tasteless experience with hong kong express. To be fair my order did get to my house before the estimated time, that was the only awesome part of my evening. I ordered the family meal containing 1 large chow mein 1 large fried rice 1 medium beef and broccoli 1 medium orange chicken 2 egg rolls 2 cream cheese wontons. Also ordered a side of their Mongolian beef and fried shrimp. OK I'm going to try to be as nice as possible because they're cream cheese wontons were pretty good but sadly they were the only thing you didn't have to smother in soy sauce and stuff down your throat. Which if you get beef will only result in you choking on their tough beef that takes longer to chew than taffy. Orange chicken was OK but I would never eat it again. So if you're craving cheap flavorless chinese "food" still don't go here. read more

Got two, two item combos delivered. Plates were packed with food unlike the big chain places. Food had a lot of flavor as well.

They stuff your plate! I always get the spicy chicken and bbq pork. They are the best!

Holy moly I was skeptical because of the score but I'm glad I didnt gaf lol! Ordered walnut shrimp- pricey.... But now I see why! Amazing portion and delicious too! Will definitely order again! read more

Ever wonder how they cook there noodles so fast? Well they lay them on trays by the back door where flys go in and out so when they need to cook them they throw them on the wok. The door stays open with the food laying with flys landing on it. Be careful I posted a photo read more

Hong Kong Express - Cantonese Near Me - Riverside, California

HK Express is much better than the Panda Express that's located in the HUB at UCR. To my surprise, this place has plenty of spaces to sit as well as big flat screen TV to watch food while you eat. Most of the time, however, I just choose to take out the food. It is what it is: just Chinese Fast Food. Do not expect anything out of the ordinary from other Chinese fast food restaurants food wise. They have all the standards from Orange Chicken to Egg Rolls. I agree w/ other reviews in that it is VERY reasonably priced and very filling. For Combo B (2 items + rice/chow mein/"half&half") the bill came out to around $6~7. The server was very prompt and ready to take the order--a big plus for me. What keeps this restaurant from a 5-star rating is that the food is very bland if you do not go during the times of lunch and dinner. Furthermore, my biggest complaint is with the chow mein. I avoid ordering the chow mein side and just stick to the fried rice because the chow mein is more onion than noodles. In fact, I bit into a big chunk of onion that deterred me from finishing it (I just gave it to my friend...he didn't complain IT'S FREE FOOD). Irregardless of the chow mein and the freshness of the food, I frequent this take-out place almost every other school day and I do recommend this place if you are like me and very lazy to prepare any lunch or dinner. read more

It's maybe slightly-better-than-average steam-table American-Cantonese food. Nothing to write home about, but I think it's better than the other options immediately next to UCR. Also, they're the only Chinese place in the area that delivers. My go-to is the barbecue pork. read more

They have okay food but they need to work on their customer service experience, and they close way before it's stated here.

Not good. Even if you are starving, look elsewhere. I got here around 6pm, and all the food was cold and had been sitting for a while. Bland- everything tasted the same. Unflavorful. About $8 for a two item combo meal w small drink. Def will not be back. read more

Real disappointment. I only came here because everything was closed and this happened to be open. Decided go try it and was happy with the crazy portions they gave me. When I got home, found out the reason they gave so much, it was terrible. I usually have a high tolerance for bad food but man didnt even want to finish this crap because the meat was dry and the noodles were tasteless. read more

I got combo A which was one entree with chow mei and it was very very good. I read the other reviews and my bar was low on this, however by my experience it was really good. The place looks clean, the servers are nice and the atmosphere is calm. The price was decent, i love placed in which i can pay with a $10 bill and this is one of them. You can eat 3 sides with chow mei for $10. Awesome, love it, portions were great, will come back! read more

I've ordered from here 2 different times so far, both orders were delivery. Both orders have been delivered within an hour, and this past order it was delivered in 25 minutes! Both of these orders were around dinner time, 5-7pm. I have been happy with the food both times! The vegetable chow mien is delicious, and I really like the fried rice and the orange chicken. I think the price is comparable to other Chinese food places. For two entrees (that come with 1 side each), I paid like $18.50, and it is a lot of food...it could easily feed 2 people and probably have some leftovers. read more

Best Chinese food around in my opinion. They deliver too it, you don't even have to get off the couch when your stoned until it arrives!

Great local feel. Owner was very nice and sweet. He let us come in 3 minutes before closing and was happy to make us side dishes near closing :) love it here, great loyalty from local owner read more

Came here cause I was trying to find the Chinese place that my friend said was good. I walk in and i felt awkward being there. there was one lady that was just standing there and i didn't know if she was waiting or not. I decided to just walk to the other side and the Fob of the two girls working there helped me. While i got my food there was a overweight white lady wanting to try all entrees. The girl helping her was hispanic. She seemed annoyed of the overweight customer. I paid and left. I ate the whole thing cause I didnt want to waste it but the food wasnt even good. It was way to sweet. I will not be going back. read more
