Rude service: one female waiter took away the sauce before we finished the dish.
The oil in dishes is heavy.

Fast service, extensive and authentic menu, very clean restaurant. The fresh steamed fish was absolutely stunning, tender and caught just the night before and brought to the restaurant that morning. It tasted just that fresh and three chef treated it with utmost respect as there was a very light sauce with scallions and ginger and that was all it needed.
The tofu and fish hot pot was tender and delicious. The snow pea leaves were crisp and cooked just to tender. The garlic chili shrimp were very generously sized crisp from the fryer and doused super generously with red and green chilies and at least a handful of garlic. And the orange wagyu was decadent meat candy in the original Chinese style of orange beef, redolent with chili and fruit.
My parents had been here once before and liked it enough to come again, as it had made a great impression on them and they were born on the Mainland.

Absolutely fantastic experience at this Hong Kong restaurant! The flavors were authentic and delicious, transporting me straight to the streets of Hong Kong. The dim sum was fresh and flavorful, and the roasted duck was perfectly crispy. The staff were friendly and attentive, making sure our dining experience was top-notch. The ambiance was cozy yet vibrant, perfect for both casual dining and special occasions. Highly recommend this place if you're looking for a true taste of Hong Kong. Five stars all the way.

The store is quite beautiful. We ordered roasted duck and barbecued pork double combo, West Lake beef soup (this one was particularly delicious) and roast duck (generally not recommended). The roasted duck was delicious, but the barbecued pork was a bit salty. Generally speaking, the environment and taste are good. The only dissatisfaction is that there is a waitress with short hair and a bad attitude. I asked her if the roast duck is delicious and authentic. She ignored me at first. I looked like a question mark, and then My companion laughed in embarrassment, so I asked again, but she said it was okay and didn't describe what the flavor was and what was in it. Her emotional intelligence was very low. I have never seen such an unintelligent waiter with the same attitude. If you are not enthusiastic, the boss needs to strengthen employee training! ! I usually have a very good attitude towards the waiters. I never offended the waiters. I just felt that the waiters were so perfunctory, which made me feel bad when I was eating.

There were 5 of us, including 2 children. We waited at the door for 20 minutes, but no one let us sit down. There were more than 7 or 8 tables available in the hall. We asked the waiter, but she just said we were too busy and asked us to wait a little longer. Even if you are busy, you won't let us sit down ? And look at the menu ? She made us wait at the door for 20 minutes, and we left without eating.

We were visiting San Diego for the first time and came here to eat after seeing other people's recommendations. There were 12 of us in total. We waited for 15 minutes after entering the door but no one responded. I asked a waiter passing by why no one came to serve us, and she roll her eyes then said impatiently that she was busy. So we had to leave and will never come back! Very bad service

Terrible service. 10 people waited there for 20 minutes and no one came. The waitress who came was the boss lady and told me that she was too late and the other two waiters were not available. You can eat or not. I am really impressed.

DON'T COME!
With so many Cantonese restaurant nearby, there is 0 reason you should visit here. Food is bad and overpriced, service and managerment is the disaster.
This restaurant will not last for long.
We ordered one appetizer(roast duck and chasiu) and three dishes. Roast duck and chasiu is cold, which is unacceptable in any Cantonese restaurant. Then, it take forever for them to serve the other three dishes. We usually expect all of them served at once in a Chinese restaurant, while they serve dishes with 10mins interval.
The service is really bad too, the waitress drop the dish just at the edge of the table every time. Then she refused to give us any alternative solution or time expection when their card reader is broken. We have to solve it with other employee after 20mins waiting time.

I am a senior and this is the first time I write a review on a restaurant i.e. Taste of Hong Kong because I want to share my experience with you.
When we arrived at the restaurant, we were greeted by a waiter who tried to convince us that half of the fish left was a good deal because the previous customer who had eaten the first half liked it very much. He did not mention its cost. It turned out that they charged us $95 for half of the fish. The second dish he recommended was a clay pot of sea cucumber. The serving was small with hard small sea cucumber instead of large cucumber with jelly texture. The charge was $39. We were given five coupons of $20 credit if we eat at the restaurant with purchase more than $40 each time. The expiration dates are about two weeks. The coupons can be used only at lunch time and they cannot be used to order take out. This is one way to tempt the customers or their friends to visit the restaurant again.
The lessons that I learned was that first I should not listen to any recommendation from the waiter. Secondly, I should not order any item without price listing. Thirdly, the price of food for the first visit will be very high in order to compensate for the future discount coupon discount and tip % on the bill will be high also.

I had an absolutely horrendous experience at this restaurant. The service was appalling. After placing our order, it took an outrageous 35 minutes for the staff to even start processing it. Meanwhile, two tables that arrived after us had already been served their food. Our order was completely messed up, and even after 50 minutes, one dish was still missing. When we brought this to their attention, the staff had the nerve to blame it on the busy kitchen. To add insult to injury, it took an infuriating 15 minutes just to settle the bill.
On top of the abysmal service, the food was disgusting. The oysters in the oyster tofu pot were revolting, with a nauseating fishy smell and a bizarre green filling. This place is a complete disaster. Avoid it at all costs if you value your time, money, and stomach.

I was here for business for a few days. In the mood for authentic Chinese food and found myself here by happenstance. I had Peking duck and HK wonton soup. OMG! So good. Since my move to AZ, I miss authentic Chinese food. You will not be sorry if you eat here. This made me miss authentic food more than I did prior to coming here.

If you're actually Cantonese or Chinese, avoid this place! Food is terrible - tastes and looks old, drenched in oil and sauce. Wouldn't last a day in 626 or the bay
