What an interesting little place. Located on College Street down by the Octopus bar, Sidecar…read moreCoffee, and other places near UNI, this Chinese restaurant offers eat-in, take-out, and delivery options. They offer regular specials as well as lunch specials, and if you watch your mail, they also send coupons in the mail sometimes. Delivery orders can be called in or set up online. The exterior of the restaurant looks a bit run-down. It could use new repainting and other upkeep. However, don't let that put you off. The interior is much nicer. There are lots of tables and booths to sit at as well as televisions to watch. They have an interior restroom as well. You'll go in and you can sit down or order right at the counter and have your food brought to you. It's really up to you. We ordered a couple dishes, and we were served within ten minutes. For the two of us, with drinks, a meal that we could barely finish came to less than $15. My companion commented that his "spicy" food wasn't nearly as spicy as he was expecting, but he also really likes super spicy food, so that may not be the restaurant's fault. I particularly enjoyed my chicken Lo Mein. It was well-cooked and springy with no burned or overcooked noodles. Yum! The meals even came with yummy fortune cookies as well (the yummy kind, even. I really enjoyed them.) Staff was pretty efficient. We were able to communicate just fine to order our food. The guy seemed pretty focused on running the restaurant as quickly and efficiently as possible. He wasn't rude or unfriendly, but he wasn't particularly talkative or friendly either. I would definitely go back. The prices were good and the food was good. The interior was nice and welcoming, and it was an enjoyable meal. Besides, they deliver, and delivery always sounds good too!

Appetizers: Crab rangoons were huge and tasty. The wonton was a little tough in spots and not sure how much crabmeat was in there, but the size made up for it. Pot stickers were really yummy. We enjoyed these immensely. I give these an A. Dinner: He ordered broccoli chicken, a safe choice. He thought it was awful and tasteless. I never saw anyone salt Chinese food before! Claimed the chicken was mushy. I tasted it and had to agree that the brown sauce was pretty flavorless. I had the Szechuan triple. It was tastier due to the spicy seasoning but I had to agree that the chicken and the beef, while tender, seemed a bit mushy like it was soaked too long or something. I'd give it a C because I was hungry. Atmosphere/Service: Very clean. We were first dinner guests tonight. Waitress literally looked us and without greeting just tossed a couple menus in the booth for us. Food did arrive quickly after we ordered. I was informed there were no chopsticks. She did refill our water but never asked us how things were. Service gets a C. I don't think I'll be able to get my husband to try Hong Kong again. We've had good, fresh Chinese food before and this really missed the mark. Very disappointed.

If you want Chinese food but don't want to risk salmonella this is a good place to go. Not that I…read moredon't like small non-chain Chinese places, I've gotten some amazing food from them. But if you've ever spoken with a health inspector you will only eat at chain restaurants. Enough said. The food is all precooked and when you walk in you are greeted by someone ready to dish you up your meal. First you choose if you want a 1, 2 or 3 entree meal. Then if you want white or fried rice or lo main. Then your entrees. They have the classics such as orange chicken, Mongolian beef, sweet and sour chicken and seasonal and limited time specialties such as orange chicken with bacon or tempura firecracker shrimp. They also have spring rolls, egg rolls and rangoons but they are extra and don't come with the meal. It's fast and you get a descent amount of food. When I'm feeling the need for Chinese food this is usually my first pick second would be Hy-Vee Chinese express. The place itself is nicely decorated And clean. The staff is friendly and the restrooms clean. They also have outside seating but I've never sat at it since it faces west and in the summer it gets really hot facing west in the evening. Tip: in the winter sit in the corner closest to the restrooms. The drafts from the door make dinning very chilling.

Not sure why because it was in the mid 70s outside. Friend got the shrimp in lobster sauce (which I thought was brave). I got the orange chicken. We both ordered white rice but it came out with fried rice. We didn't send it back but I think the white rice would have been just as well. Fried rice needed a LOT of soy sauce and there were some bits of mystery meat in it. My orange chicken was OK. I didn't try the shrimp in lobster sauce but it should have been served in a bowl, not on a serving platter. The egg rolls were just weird and were pink inside. There was a bit of cabbage with whatever the pink stuff was. Service was good though. Order at counter and food is delivered to table. (We did have to shout over the fans.) We forgot to pick up silverware and the server grabbed that and some duck sauce for us. Fortune cookies delivered to table after we ate. A couple of large work group next to us raved about their meals so you might give it a go. The lo mein noodles that were delivered to them looked great. I will probably suggest another spot if we're back in Waterloo.
