Hong Kong Chinese Restaurant

I was surprised to see this restaurant still in business, as I came here as a young girl in the late 70's. They have been in the same location for over 50 years! Small number of booths in the room we sat in;I believe they have larger tables in other rooms. Employees are not only attentive and polite, but they seem happy! I felt truly welcomed inside! Large menu, all reasonably priced, including the alcoholic beverages. We ordered a Combination dinner for the 3 of us. Dinner came quickly, and all items were delicious. They don't skimp on any ingredients. nor do they over-sauce any of the dishes. So happy this little restaurant has stood the test of time!! We will be back!

If you ever come to Corona city at South California and crave for Chinese food in a family ambience, I’d strongly recommend this 4-generation family restaurant! The server Stephanie was very friendly, their special Friday seafood dinner was delicious and the restaurant give me a cozy family feeling. This restaurant has been there for over 50 years! The 8 horses plaque was amazing too…

Great Cantonese style food. Fresh ingredients, large menu. The salt and pepper fish is addictive. Family owned for over 50 years. The building is old but, serviceable. Owner tries hard to provide natural raised ingredients on menu. This is real, old school Chinese restaurant. Service is always good but, can be a short wait for seating. They do takeout, as well. The soups are very good. They offer dinner bundles with assorted dishes. A bit more than panda express if that's your budget but, this is really good, healthier, better tasting food. A meal is around $20 for lunch. $25 for dinner. Based on a single prefix meal. Totally worth the money. It's great value.

Can't believe we have never been here!! Authentic cantonese Chinese food !! All of the staff was soo kind and helpful . We had the Dinner combo #2 for two and it was such a nice variety of food loved being able to try different stuff. The traditional chicken chow mein soo delicious! Egg rolls incredible! Pork fried rice LOVE IT . And the shrimp was like pillows ! Everything was so good and we can't wait to come back !!

The worst! Ordered chow mein for take out….no noodles just straight up bean sprouts! They asked for cash. Paid with card with extra added fee. Didn’t mind that but when I came home with the food and no noodles I’m like wth. $20 for bean sprouts that cost 99 cents at the store for a whole bag. Could have cooked it myself but after a long day of work and my daughter wanted chow mein, I figured let’s order take out. Nvm! Waste of time and money.

One of my favorite dine in restaurants. The food is amazing, service was great. I highly recommend dining here if you're ever in the corona area. The shrimp lo mein was the highlight for us but all of their dishes were very tasty.

Always have had good food and service. The restaurant is a little tired. Same wall decor etc that has been there for decades so it could use a facelift. However the food is good and the place is clean so we are happy to go back. It was nice to have good Chinese food and be able to support them during Covid several years back. Glad they were able to survive that.

Haven't been here in over 30 years. Needless to say, we were missing out. Food was delicious and very fresh. We received great service Restaurant was not crowded at the time we went. We ordered a few different items and we're not disappointed. We will definitely be back.

After more than several decades of being a customer here, this last visit in July 2025 made me realize that my 2013 review, 3 stars, was in fact unfair. If you wish, Yelp enables you to read the old review, but I have to add some new commentary. First of all, HK Restaurant survived Covid when so many small businesses went belly up. That says something is very right here. The restaurant was old when we moved to Corona in 1980. It looks very much the way it did back then, a small Chinese-red building with red tiled roof and big, bold yellow sign out front, with very little in the way of physical upgrades inside as well. Expect a relatively small, cramped dining room, with 7 (?) booths with the outdated traditional red, tuck and roll upholstery to snuggle into. There is another small dining room in the back, rarely used, I think. Please don't change a thing?! It's historic. The whole vibe is a throwback to mid 20th century Cantonese dining, including the dish of complimentary crisp, chow mein noodles served with a sweet and sour sauce dip swirled with that spicy horseradish-y yellow mustard (that one that instantly clears your nose cavities) they bring for starters. (Gawd, I love that stuff!) It is the same owners to this day, and they always know that we will order one dish, altered for Mr B's tastes. They always get it just right. The mapo tofu. The remainder of our orders vary, but this last visit I realized how special the dry version of Beef Chow Fun actually is. They understand how to create "wok hei", a distinct smokey flavor achieved by stir frying in a well seasoned wok and high heat. It is hard to find these days and very special. The beef is so tender, the flavors so rich, that a couple of our most picky family members who accompanied us this last time found this dish completely irresistable. It was fun watching them enjoy something they would have never ordered themselves. The shrimp dishes here are nicely done. The shrimp are well cleaned, big and fresh, still tender, and very good tasting. They do an excellent job on Walnut Shrimp. I can always expect the best when ordering this. Lots of candied walnuts. So irresistable. And while I am not a big fan of their version of Salt and Pepper Shrimp, it is still decent. I am a traditionalist. This one has no shell and is fried in a thick batter, as compared to shrimp served with head and shell still on, with a dusting of exotic seasonings and cornstarch that I prefer. So I save that order for elsewhere. However, HK's version pleased our family of passionate fried shrimp gobblers. I especially appreciate the chef's attention to not overlooking the shrimp. This time we ordered Sesame Chicken, also a battered dish of nuggets covered with a lightly sweetened sauce and sprinkled generously with sesame seeds. It was also given the family stamp of approval. The final star of the show, and one I have always enthusiastically endorsed, is the war wonton soup. It is a meal in itself, with an abundance of big plump wonton dumplings with one of the best tasting meat fillings you can hope to pop in your mouth. There are several big shrimp, tender pieces of chicken, slices of very delicious twice cooked pork, and vegetables like cabbage, carrots, snow peas, and water chestnut, all incorporated into a sensational chicken broth. One order gives you a very generous bowl of soup that satisfied all 6 of us. I can count on this being one of the best in our region, and very consistent. You get nice, large servings, generous on the meat, always worth the price. I don't know about you, but growing up, no Chinese meal was complete without fortune cookies or almond cookies set on a small tray with your bill. This is one place that gives you both. After a great meal and a good giggle over our individual fortunes, there is little that can please me more than nibbling slowly on that tasty almond cookie, saving that toasted almond on top for the last bite. Ahhh. Thank you Hong Kong Restaurant for all the wonderful foodie memories I get to pass on down to two more generations. You are appreciated!

I have loved this place since I discovered it when I worked in a nearby school district almost ten years ago. The food is exactly like the Cantonese style I enjoyed when I was a kid and going with my family to our favorite Chinese restaurant in Monrovia. It's the bean sprouts instead of noodles in the chow mein. It's the sticky sweet bbq spareribs. It's the old school giant egg rolls and well battered shrimp. It's that you can get a single serving combo dinner of these delicious items along with egg drop soup, bbq pork fried rice and delectable sweet and sour pork! My partner and I both had the combo for lunch with enough left over for dinner. I already can't wait to go again!

First time there and absolutely loved it. Very friendly service can't wait to come back and try everything definitely will be back forever your customer

Always a good change of pace off the beaten path! Consistent, quality and always good service. We started off with the crab wontons and vegetable egg rolls! The kids killed them both...I think the wife and I had one each, so safe to say those were delicious! Sesame chicken, chicken lo mien, broccoli beef and beef fried rice were all really delicious and filling! Everything was fresh! It's a quaint little quiet spot great for family style meals that are always great! See u guys soon!!

Hong Kong Restaurant is your one-stop shop for all things Chinese food. Conveniently located on 6th Street, it's perfect for a quick stop on the way home. The lunch specials are so good, they make me want to call early off work! Everything is worth trying--and when they say spicy, they mean it. Had me questioning my Hispanic bloodline! It's a small spot with limited tables and staff, so service can be a bit slow, but trust me, it's worth the wait.

So my husband and I finally got to go by what used to be one of our favorite Chinese Restaurants; that was until yesterday. It's been a while since we've been able to go there or order from there which we have done very frequently in the past years but we decided to go there early yesterday after church. The restaurant opened at 11:30 and we were there by 11:45 and to say the least; we were the only ones there for about 45 mins. We started off by ordering some hot tea which was very welcoming. We then ordered the bbq spareribs, pork fried rice (with bean sprouts, snow peas and no eggs) and an order of pepper steak. Now we are not sure if 11:30 is a soft opening time but it took about 30 mins for them to bring out the first dish; the bbq ribs and honestly they tasted as if they had just finished cooking them and quickly brushed the bbq sauce on them unlike the tender; juicy saucy throughout ribs that we have been accustomed to. About 10 mins later they brought our pork fried rice and I don't think I've ever had such yucky fried rice as I did yesterday. The rice was cold, crunchy and gummy if you can imagine. We contacted them to let them know that it was cold and they took it back to heaten it up and brought it back to us with a covered lid to secure the heat; however now we have crunchier and gummy rice. Once the pepper steak was brought out I tried eating the rice with the pepper steak; which by the way was not as gravy as we are used to and minus the mushrooms that usually comes with it. By now I'm sadly just over one of my favorite cuisines and especially Cantonese Chinese Cuisine. We inquired about the mushrooms and first the waitress stated that it didn't come with mushrooms but we asked her for a menu which clearly indicated mushrooms and she then stated that there were some mushrooms but more meat. Forgive me but I just didn't get or see any mushrooms. My thoughts are make it make sense; maybe the regular chef was not in and honestly $70 later; we don't think that we will have to go back. We felt really sad for having to remove one of our favorite restaurants at one of our favorite cuisines.

First time going here and the food was fresh and simply amazing. Our server was very sweet and attentive. We had the hot and sour soup, Kung pao chicken, house fried rice, pork lo mein and fried shrimp Woww simply delicious the place was very quiet, we did however get there right when they opened, old school vibes inside. Highly recommend and definitely going back.

Excellent food and service, old school style and decor. Will be coming back soon!!! Very good.................................................................................................!

Food is great, the interior is a bit dated , the staff is very attentive and friendly. I highly recommend this place.

Hong Kong restaurant has been a part of the Corona landscape for well over 40 years. Family owned and good quality. There is always friendly service and good food! I love, love, Love their hot tea!! We have the best family dinner memories here.

My family and I have been coming to Hong kong for YEARS! Nothing compares to how delicious and authentic their food is. If you're expecting a Panda Express (yuck) get outta there this place is the real deal with fresh ingredients. Hung Kong is family owned and with family style hospitality. Served in "cloche" type plates that really make it feel like you're in for a treat. I hope you enjoy this place as much as my family has

Found this little gem Sunday night and apparently it has been around for 50 years or so. The Chinese food here is a rare treat - especially their chicken egg rolls. We shared the Hong Kong Nest Appetizer ($19.95) that includes egg rolls made from a rare and laborious traditional recipe in which the skin is coated with a double light and crispy batter. The spare ribs were juicy and the paper wrapped chicken flavorful. The bacon wrapped fried shrimp was savory and the cream cheese wontons were delicious. The waitress and staff were all very friendly and the restaurant decor is nostalgic of Chinese restaurants before the days of Panda Express. It all adds to the charm of the entire experience. I will be back to try their pork chow mein and the egg foo young in the future. Note that they do have lunch specials and combination dinners as well. The main criticism I have is how far it is from where I live and don't understand why this place only has a 3.7 star on Yelp. (In addition, I probably wouldn't recommend the teriyaki chicken because it is generally a Japanese cuisine and was criticized by a Yelp review.)

Well, we spent. 79.00 +5 tip on a To go order, which included a wonton soup, broccoli beef,(but had no beef) orange chicken , and chicken chow mien , very little chicken ,our Cashier Michelle was very nice and mentioned that use high quality meat, it would have been nice to taste if I would have found some to verify, my wife wanted to drive back but I was too tired to argue . So learned our lesson ,don't believe the cashier,!!! In total we got about 1 lb of broccoli and 1ounce of beef, for 79.00$$ never again Hong Kong !!!

The food was very tasty, our server was friendly and helpful when we ordered. This restaurant has been here since the 1960's. Very convenient location, right off Sixth Street in Corona. We will be back and we definitely recommend this restaurant

The best Cantonese food east of Chinatown been going there for over 30 years and it's gotten better than ever. Anybody I take there gets hooked the only thing I wish was different would be the prices of 30 years ago.

Always great food,great customer service;And the ambiance of the restaurant is always worth the visit.Best Chinese food in the IE

We love this place and I have been going here since I was a little boy, 50 plus years. The food is excellent and the staff are very nice. Unfortunately, the only complaint I have are the restrooms, they smell bad and are in desperate need of updating. Really wish they would do something about them. I understand they are old, but they could be updated.

This had some very good noodles and the chicken and shrimp was really good. The place look very nice and clean. And the people we very nice.

Food is good BUT. We notice a after taste after leaving the restuarant...Maybe MSG?? AT the time we didnt think of telling them. NO MGS.... So we will eat there again and make sure to tell them no msg please....the portions are not large.. and they are Cinsie when it come to gettin a cripy noodle refill.....they wanted 3.50... i would think that they would want return customers....but we will try again next month...

Good portions great service worth the drive from Riverside. Always tasty . Been coming here since 1967. Clean and friendly Manager Michelle the best on top of her position

Friendly service and great food for the last 40+ years. I've been coming here since I was a kid. A must stop anytime we are back in Corona.

This place is ok- nothing better nothing worse. I wouldn't recommend getting the fried rice. The beef chown fun was much better. The beef is not real beef though. It tastes like the meat you get at buffets. But, it tasted like chow fun. The waiter was really interesting though. She brought out fried crackers for us and made a smiley face with the sauce. It was weird, but I appreciate the gesture. I did not like the cash or extra card fee policy. For this level sit down, just let me use credit card without charge...

Been coming here for 10 years. They know my name, my voice on the phone. Never felt so disrespected before when I order the same thing I have ordered for 10 years and they give me 5 little pieces of chicken on a $20 chicken plate, but loaded me with noodles and no sauce or flavor. This is how you lose a customer fast. I always tip even on pickup orders. But this was garbage and I will never come here again. It shows that your hellos at the door are fake, and you will never get my money again.

This is our local fave. They are the kindest people with the best food and the place itself is full of history. I don't know what more you can ask for. Even around Near Years when they are slammed they give the best service. Tip: get an order of chili oil with your food and to go. It's great on a lot of other dishes.

So prob stopped by here for the final time today. Frustrating when you walk in and not greeted for nearly 10 min because there's 1 server and she is hanging out in the kitchen awaiting food. I got the teriyaki chicken today. Not a good move. First off, the lunch comes with soup but you can't choose it. You get the egg drop. My egg roll was not hot. The chicken was all dark meat and it came with a small serving of teriyaki sauce to dip the chicken in. Chicken was warm, not hot. In listening to conversations around me the other patrons seemed to be regulars. I work in the area once a month and have came here for the past 5. Just not a good experience today.

Always a pleasure! The food is amazing. The service is superb. The food menu options are diverse. It's easy to find something for every person in our party no matter the dietary restrictions.

5s for food 5s for service. 5s for ambiance. Traditional Chinese restaurant. We've made Hong Kong our Christmas Eve tradition after watching The Christmas Story movie. You'll have to watch it to get the reference, but Chinese food at Christmas is very important! I know I'll be cooking all day on Christmas so having a little break on Christmas Eve (and lots of leftovers to feed everyone for lunch on Christmas Day!) is the BEST! We get the Combo #4 for 3 people. There's 4 of us, but there's so much food that a service for 3 is plenty and then some. We take it home, put on Christmas movies and snack away. Thank you Hong Kong for years and years of great food and wonderful memories. Even though we've moved 30 miles away, you're worth every mile and minute in traffic.

It's an old family favorite haven't been there in years and it was well worth the visit! The place is clean. The staff is extremely friendly, and the food was hot and fresh. We ordered the #2 dinner bbq ribs,fried shrimp, egg roll, chicken chow mein, barbecue pork fried rice, sweet-and-sour pork! We will definitely be going back soon.

I've been here consistently for years and man, it's delicious!! We always go for their noodles and wonton soups. Service is alway great. I will continue to come here and support this local team.

Best Chinese food. Been going there several years. I love their egg flower because it's different from other Chinese restaurants., I like thin, brothy egg flour soup, other Chinese restaurants put a thickener in their soup. I always order their combination plates.

Great food and exceptional service make this a great spot for lunch and dinner. Their lunch specials are reasonably priced with a good variety of food to choose from. This is one of my family's favorites.

Great old style Chines restaurant and food. love it. There have been so many who have closed. Glad I found them

The food was delicious. Our waitress Michelle was very attentive and sweet. The tables are really close together so it was a little loud

After going here on/off for 10 years at least. Good east coast style food but be aware of price gauging.The meal I ordered for $21 turned out to be $40. Not thrilled. Fool me once on me. fool me twice on you and you karmic debt must be repaid for taking advantage. Bless you!

Hong Kong is the very best food ever! We have been eating there for 44 years and have never been disappointed

Wonderful food. All five meals were excellent. Service was friendly and good. Older looking restaurant, but a gem for quality and service.

Been a staple in Corona for years. My family has been eating here since I was a little girl. Great food and big portions.

When you enter, you step back into time (70's) that's not a bad thing! I loved that time in my life The interior is clean, seating (in front) is kind of small. When they really get busy they use the back (south) side of the restaurant. The waitresses are so nice, they've been here for a long time We usually get the dinner deals, number 1 or 2. Tonight we had the 2 Pork fried rice, sweet and sour chicken, chow mein, bbq spare rib, fried shrimp and of course the crispy noodles for appetizer. Do not forget get the mustard, theirs is the real thing! As always a favorite of locals and visitors as well We'll be back!

Wow an old school Chinese Restaurant still exist. This place was excellent from start to finish. The service was on point. The server was extremely friendly always followed up on us make sure our drinks were refilled and was very helpful. The food was also awesome! I have Moo Shu beef and it was perfect. The little tortillas were perfectly made insides were extremely fresh. The plum sauce was terrific. The wife ordered a beef broccoli dish that she thoroughly enjoyed. There was more than enough beef and broccoli. The portions are large and everything was extremely fresh. They had a very brisk business the entire time we were there. Tons of regulars coming in. Can't believe we've lived here for so long and have never experienced real gem. They have a new regular set of customers.

The food is so fresh and yummy , service was helpful and friendly. My family will be back ! Best Chinese food in Corona/Norco

My favorite Chinese place in Corona! I love the old fashioned Hong Kong style Chinese-American cuisine here. Maybe not so trendy these days, but still delicious. Plus, the staff are super friendly!

Still my favorite Chinese food. Everything on the menu is deliciously made fresh. Service was excellent. Ill be visiting soon!

The women who work here are fantastic. The man who answers the phone when you call for orders is the absolutely worst and gives terrible customer service. Because of him I will not order from here again. Sad because their food is pretty good but I don't do rudeness when I'm spending my money! Panda Inn is just as good!

I don't know why anyone would leave less than 5 starts at this amazing place. So, after living in Corona for almost 6 years, I would see this spot almost daily. Didn't really click to go till I saw it on Yelp. Decided to come here with the family for my dad's birthday this past Saturday, and omg, it was well worth it! The wonton soup was one of the best I ever had. the walnut shrimp was cooked just perfect where it wasn't rubbery. The beef was tender, not chewy. The bbq pork and ribs were delicious. Just everything was amazing and delicious. Customer service is the best ever they are very polite and want to make sure all the plates are up to par. There's a real nice older mam that comes often to take away any bones from the ribs of used plates. This is out go to place to celebrate birthdays from now on.

Food was delicious! Service EXCELLENT experience for my first time going. And the ambiance was in my opinion very old fashioned. I will definitely be back!

I loved my dumplings and all of our food was great but the teriyaki chicken was not good other than that our serves was great and the food was pretty good I would definitely come back again Plus. It was really cute in here

Always such awesome food! Best Chinese food around the whole area. Always get the lo mein!

Wow. It has been a long timwe since we found a traditional Chinese Restaraunt. Hong Kong Restaraunt was simply charming from the warm greeting to the delicious food. The service was impeccable, prices very reasonable and you can see why they have been in business at the same location since 1969. A true gem of a restaurant ansd we will e returning many more times! Treat yourselves to a traditional Chinese Restaraunts with all your favorites on the menu.

The food is always so fabulous here. But as I was waiting for my order to go be ready, I asked for a martini. This is what I got. Is it a shot or martin?i LOL otherwise this plane is the bomb. Amazing.
