I was traveling and was looking for a Chinese late night snack. That congee was mighty but a bit on the sweet side. The noodle dish is average or above average. That big fried dough not fresh so it’s all crunchy and hard.
I’m sure this place can cook up some nice dishes since I was traveling and won’t be back until my next trip to South San Francisco.

The food is good but not great. There are some dishes that are good such as the congees, noodles. But the clay pot fish is not fresh.

While all the congees are good at Hing Lung Cafe in South SF, the pork liver congee truly stands out. It's a must-try dish that makes this cafe worth a visit!

This is the real original Hing Lung Cafe operated by the original owner, although the Chinese restaurant name has been changed recently (now 江記）. You don't get the original tastes from the Hing Lung imitators.

Business hours are until 9:30PM, orders placed after 8:40PM will be required to be taken out. For those with Oriental faces who use credit cards to pay, there will be a special explanation that an additional 3% handling fee will be charged. In that case, cash was used for payment. The noodles in the meal were thin noodles and had a strong alkaline taste. We only ate wontons and couldn't finish the noodles.

The pork ribs stir-fry was very greasy and the pork ribs were solid. Beef brisket rice rolls and the beef brisket is a bit hard. The above two types of meat are not enjoyable to eat? Porridge is perfect.
Street parking can be hard but we were lucky to find one not too far away.
It was busy on a Saturday evening with what seems like a lot of regulars. We were a party of 5 and they sat us at a table for 4 and added a chair on the end. Once we ordered, they moved us to a big table. We ordered way too much for 5 people. Ending up taking a lot home.
Everything was very good. Except the veggie was a little too tough/mature. And the mixed mushroom with egg tofu was not mixed mushroom but only one type of mushroom. The egg tofu was very good with the broccoli.
The bbq pork with chicken appetizer was good too. The bbq pork was so juicy and flavorful.
Portions here are very big and prices are reasonable.

I ordered take out at this place. I enjoyed the shrimp wonton soup and combination pan fried noodles. Soup was light and refreshing. The combination pan fried noodles were flavorful. There is a 3% charge for using card, which isn't much. But cash is recommended if you want ro avoid that 3%. Portion sizes were good and taste was great. I plan to come more often to try the rest of the menu. No comment on service since I had takeout. But the folks seemed nice and reasonable which is pretty much a 5/5 for me.

I believe the foods had MSG because I was really thirsty after. Congee could be better if adding ginger. Rice rolls were too hard and too oily. It was disappointed they don’t have 炸兩. 3% surcharge for credit card payment is insane!! Spending $60 for lunch was pricy. I would rather go to dim sum restaurant with better foods and service. Service was average. The reason I gave 2 stars because it’s spacious, not like the one in San Bruno very crowded and noisy. It’s always tough to find parking in this neighborhood.

I came here for its famous Jook. I’m disappointed its jook. I also order a chow fun, and the chow fun very good. Finally, I order Chinese sausage fried Chinese broccoli, and it just so so.
