Reviews
You won't be disappointed. Nice people. This is my go-to place. Similar to what I'm used to. I grew up on Boston's North Shore. 4.5 Stars!
The food is always good and always fresh. We typically eat here 2-3 times a month! Give it a try.
Excellent service on take out, special orders don't bother them and recently my order of garlic chicken without spice, came with a hot pepper and they made it right!! Love this place!!
I really wanted to have some Thai food but didn't want to take the drive so I decided to try Hong Kong Taste. I did get the crab Rangoon and those were delicious. They are definitely stuffed full and fried perfectly. I really couldn't decide what to eat, so I got some shrimp lo mein, which was very good, and the shrimp curry, which was only so so. It could be because I was hoping for a more Thai curry and it didn't taste anything like that. I didn't realize this was mainly a fast food pick up Chinese restaurant. The service was quick and the restaurant was orderly. I would try it again and definitely go back for the crab Rangoon!
Good tasty food, nice staff and owner also was very friendly! I've been here several times and ordered a variety of choices off the menu and enjoyed them all. From Egg Foo Yung to Lo Mein and always get the Cheese Wontons which would be called Crab Wontons in most Asian Restaurants since they are filled with cream cheese and crab meat (overflowing). They are my fave! Fried to a crispy perfection not over cooked. With a sweet red sauce to dip. I'll return and do most every week!
