I went here later at night when the bistro was a little bit emptier. The staff were incredibly helpful and always told us what we wanted or needed to know. The atmosphere is comfortable and welcoming. All of the food I tried was good, and the value for money is very good. Thank you for a good experience!
Very good food.
Really good Hong Kong style food. The spiced pork and fried seafood were favorites of mine.
A nice lil place, with good serving food. Was not having a great day but the customer service was really nice and patient. The curry was great
Hong Kong Bistro is the old HK staple in these parts. Open later than most, with a wide selection, and portions as big as your grandmother used to serve you (eat more, you’re too skinny!).Some of the classics here are the Beef Chow Fun, the Baked dishes, and the Rice dishes. The Baked dishes come in a convenient tin bowl that doubles as a takeout tray since the portions are so big you probably won’t finish. The Rice dishes, my favorite being the shrimp and egg over rice, are made with a nice slurry that mixes so well with the rice.It’s no wonder you’ll find old-timey HKers dining here, late at night discussing business or family, sipping on some lemon tea. HK Bistro delivers the goods.
Had seafood Chow Mein there. Noodle was too dry and not much seafood.. I had to have lunch again somewhere else.
We have been eating here for 10+ years, starting back when we knew some of the staff that ran the then smaller Fu Lam Mum (was across the street in the late 90s) who later started HK Bistro.Great traditional HK style “Cha chaan teng” fare (look it up on Wikipedia). It’s quite different from the me-too Americanized Chinese restaurants in most of the US, and mostly different from the authentic Cantonese-Chinese restaurants in the Chinese immigrant enclaves (like FLM next door).Our favorites include: beef chow fun; beef and egg over rice; curry beef stew over rice; etc; and of course an iced milk tea.
One of the best places around here to get chow fun.
The curry chicken was sooooo good!! I lived 5+ years in Hong Kong and I know what a good curry chicken taste like!
Bought two different kinds of porriage and both of them had a very weird chemical taste. The scallions inside also taste super chemical. I got diarrhea after finishing the porriage. Don't know what other food tastes like but I wouldn't recommend their porriage at all.

Nice Cafe, it feels very hk. Delicious dishes and milktea
Stopped here a few times for their salt and pepper fish. It tasted so much better the first time we had it and other time, hit and miss. This is more a mom and pop shop so don’t expect excellent service.
If you like seafood, be sure to order the special seafood chow mein.
The food is consistently well prepared and tasty, staff members provides excellent service. I like how clean it is and atmosphere. Would recommend to others.
Clean and good place to eat
