It was all delicious. I don’t use chop sticks so they brought me a fork.

“This review is long overdue, but this is a great Thai small business to support. The place is cozy [with seasonal outdoor seating] and the staff is always warm. The Drunken noodles are my go-to and it is a generous portion of noodles AND protein...for the most part. I strongly discourage paying extra for extra protein as I paid $3 for EXTRA protein and received 3 small shrimp. This seems to be a trend as I have ordered DN at two other places and the extra fee was not reflected in the portion delivered. But Mae does deliver consistently outside of this.“

“The food was excellent, good balances of spices and not salty. We shared the cold noodles with peanut sauce. One of the best we have had. I had fish in ginger and scallion sauce. The fish was fresh and lightly breaded, quite delicious. My wife enjoyed the lettuce wrap. All dishes were quite plentiful as well. Service was very good and our hostess provided good recommendations. The restaurant is large with very tall ceilings. And went it is not full it does not convey a lively vibe.“

“Absolutely loved this place! The food was delicious, fresh, and the portions were incredibly generous. We ordered a combination plate, and there was so much food that we could barely finish it. Everything—from the chicken and beef to the vegetables, fried rice, and wings—was flavorful and satisfying.

As a Korean and Chinese couple, we both really enjoyed the flavors and felt that the food suited our tastes very well. It was comforting, flavorful, and exactly the kind of Chinese food we were hoping for around Harvard Square.

What made the experience even better was how friendly and welcoming the staff were. The service was kind and attentive, and we felt very comfortable throughout our meal. Considering the generous portions, good food, and convenient Harvard Square location, we thought it was a great value as well.

Definitely one of the most satisfying meals we’ve had around Harvard Square. We left completely full and happy! We’ll absolutely be coming back and would happily recommend Hong Kong Restaurant to friends, students, and anyone looking for a generous and delicious meal in the area. 😊🥢❤“
