“One of my favorite places in simsbury. I’ve gone here many, many times for dine in with my wife and never had a problem. The food is always amazing as well as the service. On top of that, I have gotten takeout on more occasions than I’m proud to say, and it’s always been great. Not sure what the few bad reviews are on about, this is a great, inexpensive place to get food that will taste great! We love Tan Wong! Thank you!“

“Week to week this is a lovely Chinese restaurant to order a number of appetizer favorites and house special meals. They’re ALWAYS busy but manage to prepare your order in a timely manner.Personal favorite is letter M with a substitution of beef lo mein instead of vegetables. They’re always accommodating and do not give you an attitude when you ask for a substitute. I rather take a 20 minute drive to this Chinese restaurant than a few of the local establishments.Despite the airy clear film divider, the area where they prep our food appears to be quite clean and not cluttered. Give them a try. Despite the older negative reviews, every business deserves a chance to improve. Give Fortune Cookie a try!Pros: fresh food, flavor is never lacking (not salty), clean working area, professional, on time and consistentCons: they’re closed on Tuesdays“

“Great customer service. We were confused ordering noodles and the young lady was kinda to explain the difference. We got fresh food and big portions. We went late and they were kind to let us finish our food after closing time. And they gave us egg rolls!
Great taste.“

“For years, during my birthday week I don't cook for lunch. Thank you, Hong Kong Express for yet again a wonderful birthday week meal with enough left over for another one. When you say it will be ready in 15 minutes you mean it.“

“This is the finest Chinese restaurant, I’ve ever been to and it’s really underrated and people should come here more often and the prices are really good and you get good portions.
Food that is really popular is:
Pork fried rice; Lo Maine; Chicken wings; beef broccoli.
I’ve had tried these and they really hit the spot, really good and leave you wanting more.
On the other hand the only dish I didn’t like was the dumplings they were not Pleasant and very bland and too mushy but besides that everything is really good and always on point! (Keep it up!!)
Parking: Several spot on the lot to park for about 24 people“

“We just happened to stop at Main Garden, that was pure luck. Their menu is huge, we bought house fried rice, and two dinner combos. The wings are very meaty the rice was very tasty, the veggie's were great. Highly recommend.“

““Home Is Springfield.” That is the restaurant’s website name — homeispringfield.com — but also what it calls to me. I came across Ho Mei during my first week in Springfield, wandering the city with no real direction, just hoping to find some place that felt safe. I didn't expect to find home.
What first caught my eye was a Shen Yun poster in the window — a sign of cultural pride that immediately stopped me in my tracks. As someone who’s quietly in awe of the strength, grace, and deep soul of Chinese culture, seeing that felt like a spiritual invitation. I’ve seen Shen Yun before and highly recommend it to anyone who still believes in beauty as a form of survival. That poster told me this place wasn’t just a business — it was a place of memory, culture, and quiet care.
From the outside, Ho Mei looks unassuming. No frills. Just a clean menu in the window and that single, stirring sticker tucked under it. But once I stepped inside, I felt something shift. The space is small but open and bright. It’s not trying to impress — it’s simply, beautifully present. It reminded me of good feng shui (though I admit I don’t know much about it), and the feeling was clear: this is a place where things are in order, where care lives quietly.
I was greeted by a young man behind the counter — gentle, professional, and kind. His voice had the softness of someone who speaks English with reverence, each word carefully chosen, as is the way across so many Chinese dialects. It reminded me that language, like food, is art too.
I asked for sweet and sour chicken (I’m sorry, Auntie — I know that’s embarrassing), but was gently introduced to more traditional options. I chose orange chicken in the end, and my lack of cultural depth was met not with judgment, but comfort. I told him I’d come in because of the Shen Yun sign, and as I stumbled to express my admiration for Chinese culture, I started crying — overwhelmed by feeling, and maybe by shame. He smiled — not in pity, but in understanding. I excused myself to the bathroom, but I felt safe. That is cultural hospitality — not loud, not performative. Just real.
There were only two tables inside, at least when I visited. I chose one and sat down, intending to wait for my takeout. But everything changed with the first bite. The appetizer was so good I couldn’t stop. Then came the wonton soup — perfectly hot, like the medicine I didn’t realize I needed. And then the orange chicken... I meant to take it home, but I finished it right there.
This is food made with devotion. Food that’s not just delicious — ho mei means “good taste” in Cantonese — but healing. Comforting. Like it had been made for someone who’s wandered for a long time. Like me.
The prices were so low I almost didn’t believe them. Coming from Boston, Cambridge, and Worcester, it felt like a miracle. I left a large tip out of gratitude, only to find the next day it hadn’t been accepted. I guess I’ll have to return with a red envelope — to thank this homie, I mean Ho Mei, for their kindness, their welcome, and the unspoken grace of this little restaurant.
TLDR: Ho Mei isn’t flashy. It doesn’t put on false pretenses. It is just true and good. A quiet corner of Springfield where food is made with honor and served with something I haven’t found in a long time — but that I’ve been finding, over and over again, here in Springfield: heart.
For anyone who’s felt a little lost — culturally, emotionally, spiritually — this might be the place that grounds and nourishes you again. Ho Mei makes me feel like home is Springfield, even when home is far.“

“I have been patronizing New King Yen for at least twenty years, and truly enjoy their food. It has been consistently delicious, and of quality. One of my favorite dishes is the Shrimp with Lobster Sauce. I also enjoy their Wonton and Egg Drop Soups, and seasonal Shrimp and Asparagus. When dining in the restaurant, the chef will accommodate preferences if able. The two young ladies who are sisters are very kind.“

“This place is pretty cozy with a ton of offerings.. chicken is typical Chinese food chicken, General Tso sauce was ok I feel it could use a work up tho.. The fried Rice was amazing, super tasty and flavorful.. the only one issue was the egg roll seemed a tad bit off, I was was a couple people and we all agreed on that.“

“-vegetable delight - good 7/10
-homestyle tofu - very good 8.5/10
-szechuan tofu - very good 8/10, although disappointingly not the authentic szechuan peppercorn spice style
-vegetable lo mein - great 9/10
Would be great to see clearly labeled vegan options on the menu in the future! Would be awesome to see a plant-based section with some mock meats as the protein option too“

“Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
Yes this place will eventually finish their renovations but it has a charm to me like the Chinese restaurants I went to as a child.
It’s like the underdog in a boxing match.
The food was sooo sooo delicious and great quality and quantity and very affordable.
The owner is very kind and attentive to your order.
Thank you again!

“We did take out. It was great that we could order online and it was ready quickly. The menu was large but a bit tricky to see everything online. The staff was friendly and efficient.
The beef lo mien was good and a large portion but a bit salty. The fried wantons were good and a large order of them. The general tso's was ok and the egg rolls had a bit of a different seasoning.
The restaurant was a bit small but clean.
All in all, I'd give it a try again and have a few different things on the menu.“

“Really great food!!! Totally hits the spot. Group of us had general tsos, fried rice, egg roll, crab Rangoon, fried dumpling, fried shrimp, orange chicken, chicken fingers, and beef spare ribs and it was all soooooo good. Chicken is crispy and saucy. They’re also very nice. We forgot one of our bags of food and they immediately called us to come back for what we forgot. Definitely willl be back!“

“Every now and then I have a dining experience that moves me beyond words. I placed a a pickup order with New King Yen Too earlier this month. I arrived to retrieve my food and was so enraptured by the atmosphere of the restaurant that I asked, “Would it be permissible if I ate here?” I was granted this honor and allowed to choose my own table. Typically, a meal like this might last ten to fifteen minutes, but on this day I sat and savored my meal for hours, ordering additional food. Another culture’s story gradually unfolded with each new exotic dish that was prepared. As the night wore on and the smell of rare spices filled the air, I questioned this reality, finally giving in just as one would whilst riding a wild horse. Euphoria rose and receded in waves until my mortal attachments began to fall away. One singular thing remained: my love for Lorraine.
That morning I watched the sun rise. Sitting on the roof of my car, the rays of a new day carried with them an assurance I could not ignore and I knew, without a doubt, I was a changed man.
Thank you.“

“I've been looking for a good Chinese place nearby and I've tried several. None have been as good or consistent as this. The food here is ACTUALLY good - the portions are very good, and the prices are extremely attractive. Keep doing what you guys are doing - you've got it right!“

“general tsaos is amazing! they make food quickly and always flavorful“
“Ate at China House last night. Had steamed dumplings, General Tso ckn, & garlic chicken. Dumplings were a touch bland but the dipping sauce off set that. Tso’s flavor was in point, just wished had a bit of a better crunch. The garlic sauce was very good but the large mini corn cobs tasted bitter and like they’ve been soaking in water solution too long. I would definitely return and try other favorites like Rangoon, beef broccoli, and sweet sour.
The restaurant can’t do too much about the homeless ppl and stuff dealer across the street. Best to order ahead and quickly pick up and go.“

“An affordable family-run take out Chinese food.
I stopped by to pickup some Chinese food. Beef noodle for my kids and general Tsao’s combo for me.
Everything came out hot. The egg rolls took the longest. It was crunchy and I could tell it was home made.
The noodles was OK. It was a bit light on ingredients but at this price point, that’s fine.
General Tsao was interesting. Small pieces of chicken, individually thickly coated, and sauces generously. No broccoli but at this price, can’t ask for it. It had a nice crunch and flavor was good. It came in a smallish container but it was packed full of food.
They put in utensils I asked for along with sauces.
When I was there, bunch of kids were there and they were helping out. It’s nice to see family run shops. The woman taking order was super friendly and asked about my kids.
If you want an affordable and generously portioned meal, these guys are great.“

“I recently relocated to Suffield from Rhode Island and am an avid enthusiast of Chinese cuisine. After conducting extensive research on the local dining scene, I decided to visit this establishment despite initial reservations. To my surprise, the flavors were exceptional, the portions were generous, and the prices were remarkably affordable. This experience challenged my preconceived notions about the cost of quality Chinese food. I highly recommend trying their dishes.“
