This place is often busy, with a wait of no more than 15 minutes for a table. The classic Thai chicken dishes are delicious and come in large portions—I can never finish a plate.
Be sure to get the garlic rice!
Chicken was crispy and bursting with flavor, parking was hard to find but you can park in the hotel nxt door if you ask the restaurant front desk for a pass
There was a small queue and for those with their names down on a list. As it wasn't a long wait I decided to check this place out as I was hankering for Hainanese Chicken Rice - a comfort dish since childhood.
I chose the dark meat option without organs. The texture was just right but the chicken rice is a little bland from what I'm used to and not so authentic - well, it's a Thai restaurant and variation. The portion size is generous. The Mango Sticky Rice takeaway is still tasty but isn't as fresh as a non takeaway version.
A small restaurant with high turnover and friendly staff. Maybe their other offerings are better according to the other reviews but I didn't quite find home today.

I’ve been wanting to try this since I randomly drove by a few months ago, and all the time that had passed since had made my expectations exceedingly high.
Well today was finally the day. I got the fried pork belly and poached chicken combo plate and even with already incredibly high exaggerated expectations this exceeded them. maybe I was just starving, but it was genuinely some of the best food I’ve had since moving out here. The sauces are actually mind blowing. Also, pork stayed super crispy with takeout.

I am so happy that I marked this place to check out. They share a parking lot with neighboring hotel and we just have to put a sign that the staff gives out on our car dashboard. This place was packed, but luckily we got seated immediately. We ordered a bit of everything to try and all were phenomenal. Absolutely loved the fact that they have the lime juice dressing in a jar on the table. They also have cut up Thai chili peppers, ginger, for you to add per your liking. Even the clear soup that it came with was very flavorful! We will absolutely come back if we're in the area and in the mood for some chicken rice!

Cozy Thai restaurant!
Park in the motel right next to it and ask the cashier for the orange parking placard.
The restaurant has indoor seating only. We were seated quickly without wait since we arrived between the lunch and dinner hours.
The Hainan chicken with garlic rice is super yummy. Got half dark and half white meat. I prefer the white meat. Also got the mango rice to go. It was also yummy.
If you're in the area, then it's worth a try.

I only saw recommendations for Heng Heng on tiktok and found out it is all hype
Waited for a few minutes after putting names down on waitlist
A server sat me down at first, told me another guest came first, and then kicked me out
We waited some more and then sat down
No water just the menu
We order chicken rice & server asked if we want dark meat or white meat
I asked for dark and she said jk we only have white meat?
Soup was watered down
Meat was soft but flavorless
Rice plain
Sauce was the only thing flavorful about the dish
They use plastic utensils for dine-in
Coffee was a single sip & left behind
Ginger empty but not filled
Not checked on regarding food
During the meal, servers proceeded to move other guests to accommodate other guests e.g. moving table of 2 for larger groups after they sat down
Overall a mess
Fried Chicken Rice and Garlic Noodles with Fried Chicken is a must try!

Best fried chicken I've ever tasted. The garlic rice was fantastic too. Friendly, fast service. No wait even when other nearby restaurants had a long line. Wonderful experience.

Came here for dinner at around 6 PM and they were already sold out of the steam chicken. We ended up getting the half and half fried chicken and pork belly à la cart and ordered a garlic noodle and garlic rice on the side. The garlic noodle is better than the garlic rice in my opinion as it was more garlicky. Both the pork belly and chicken were good, but I think the chicken has a slight edge because it is less rich. The pork belly is good too, especially with a dipping sauce which has a citrusy flavor that helps to cut the richness of the fat. My favorite sauce, however, is the one that is available on the table for self serve. It goes well with both protein and is perfect on the rice. Don’t skip on the chicken broth as well. This is the perfect ending to the meal. Parking is easy as you can just park at the motel lot right by the restaurant and get a parking pass from the restaurant. Don’t forget to return it when you leave. Service is pretty quick and pleasant.
Would recommend and would love to come back here again to try the steamed chicken.

I think I've been here 4 times now. It's right off the red line so the convenience in proximity is what led me to try it in the first place. But I do love this place. It's so friendly and warm inside. I love the strong flavors of their dishes and the added broth you get on the side. Reasonable prices as well and if you feel inclined to walking a bit, it's close by to other delicious Thai shops (especially sweets). Friendly staff and delicious food in a chill place really is all you need. Please try if you're around

This place is delicious but not sure what’s going on. They haven’t had chicken on the menu for MONTHS! Hope everything is good over there.

Randomly bumped into Heng Heng as we’re trying to find Asian cuisine around the area. The place seemed to be preferred by family, making it quite tricky given the petite space. Good thing the turnaround was pretty quick so it helped.
If you planned to visit for dinner, would recommend to come early as their steamed chicken ran out pretty early especially on weekends. They did serve both white and dark meat so go for the combo to get the complete package. It’s not for no reason they sold out quickly since the chicken was indeed yummy and tender, even the white one! If you’re into chicken skin, you’d love how they did serve plenty of them.
Besides, the fried ones were doubtlessly not to skip, both the chicken and the pork. I would call them addicting as you felt like keep wanting one more piece. Perfectly juicy meats with crispy well-seasoned coating and complemented with tasty dipping sauces.

When we went they were already out of Hainan chicken so we got crispy pork and fried chicken. The dipping sauce that came with crispy pork has a nice refreshing taste and a spicy kick to it. Highly recommend!
