if you’re looking for authentic cantonese-style barbecue, this is it right here. order their san-bao-fan (3 meats with rice) platter to sample a few, and be sure not to skip out on their won ton soup (delicately wrapped shrimp and a light but perfectly salty broth). don’t forget to order their char siu rou (so good on the go, too!) and their pork belly (best when fresh out of the kitchen). if you’re a lover of spice, help yourself to the jar on the table—i don’t know what they put it in except absolute magic!

Food was decent. I liked the won ton soup and the salted chicken. Roasted duck was lacking in flavor and the sauce was quite greasy. BBQ pork tasted great but was extremely greasy. I didn't care much for the tendon. One thing that's great here is that you can order buns and pickles on the side if you want duck buns but don't want an entire duck.

Hon Kee offers comforting Cantonese flavors that bring a sense of home. Their BBQ options are affordably priced and very well made — we've especially enjoyed the BBQ roasted duck and pork. Their home-cooked-style dishes like Pork Stomach Chicken Casserole 猪肚鸡煲, Egg Tofu, and Pancit Canton 干烧伊面 are also delicious. Their seafood dishes, like the lobster and sea cucumber, were decent but we feel we have had better quality from other restaurants. The service at Hon Kee is consistently warm and friendly. Overall, with an extensive menu and generous portions, this is a great choice for anyone craving authentic Cantonese flavors.

Visited Chicago and was introduced to the owners and owners son through my mentor. We were able to try their peking duck, chow fun, and bbq braided pork and wonton soup. My personal favorite was the wonton soup but everything tasted amazing. The owners were extremely kind and hospitable and we were able to drink a sip of wine with the owner and some of the locals. I could tell it's a community based restaurant and all the locals were coming here to eat some good Chinese food. I really had an amazing time. Shout-out to Mike and his family!

Hon Kee BBQ & Seafood Restaurant We really did not dine-in, but we did have the duck. The duck was good! The decor inside is very fancy. Good bathroom too. Next time, we will dine-in. Recommended.

I'm giving 4 stars because of the amount pork I got on my rice when I ordered BBQ pork on rice with scrambled eggs. (Well salted ..a bit of butter) They have huge portions but why skimp on the pork. Like 6 quarter coin size wafer thin pieces of pork. Under $10 but when you order a small plate of pork is just under $10. I'm sure it's regular size chopped BBQ pork. I will go back and order again. Our soup was good and my sister enjoyed her beef with oyster sauce. I'm not sure what I expected but if you want BBQ from here order the plates if BBQ. And there's parking that was a huge plus. Beautiful restaurant too.

Very nice cantonese chinese food here! Their roasted bbq pork are great! Must try. Easy access to using CTA Train, where you can stop at the station & just a few minutes walk to the restaurant.

The food from here is some of the best Chinese in Chicagoland. The house made noodles and BBQ meats are top notch. My absolute favorite is their house special soup with the homemade egg noodles, wontons and tendon. It is a cure to whatever ails you. The 3 combo rice plate is my go to for when I’m feeling indecisive. The duck, char siu, pork are difficult to choose between, BUT the unexpected star of the show is the soy sauce chicken. The simple noodles or vegetable dishes are done very well. I have not had one bad dish. Everything has been beyond my expectations. This isn’t cheap, greasy Americanized Chinese food. This is the real deal.

We went to Hon Kee Barbeque and Seafood restaurant for l first time last week. We've been to many restaurants in the Uptown area but this was our first time there. Did you know that they have been in the Uptown area in Chicago for 40 years? They opened in 1981 and have been serving delicious Chinese Canton Cuisine food since then. It's a family run restaurant and I was thrilled to meet the owner Paul Tsang and his daughter Melina. We came for the 3 course Peking Duck dinner (whole filleted Duck,  Duck & vegetable stir fry Duck soup), includes house-made hoisin sauce,  pickled radish & carrots.  Freshly julienned scallions & cucumbers and 12 steamed mantou baos.  It was delicious,  and enough food for 4 people. We will be back again for some of their most popular dishes such as:  BBQ Pork Scrambled Egg on Rice, Hong Style Lobster and any of their noodle soups! If you have never been to Hon Kee Barbeque and Seafood restaurant, I highly recommend that you go there soon.
