Chef Hong Reviews
Run by a lovely Husband-Wife duo. Food portions are massive and yummy!
They will be going on a 1 month break till 22 July 2026, so I had to stock up on frozen dumplings too!
Authentic and affordable
Chef Hong's is an awesome hidden gem, located right between two buildings. The food is freshly made and amazing, never too greasy; I loved the beef noodles, chow mein, and fried rice. Their Chinese hamburgers were also incredible. The older couple who runs it provides super wholesome service, always making sure your food is hot and fresh. A must-try for anyone looking for comforting food, making it perfect for fans of comfort food. Highly recommend!

Chef Hong's family-run food truck offers a limited seating, but its authentic and homemade Chinese dishes make it a must-visit spot. The zhajiangmian, with its chewy hand-pulled noodles, savory meat, and crunchy veggies, is a favorite among customers. Other popular dishes include the roujiamo, chow mein, and dumplings, all made with love and care. The chili oil adds an extra layer of flavor to each dish. The Liang Pi, a unique and flavorful noodle dish, rivals those found in Houston and China. With quick service and generous portions, Chef Hong is a hidden gem in Austin.
Customers praise the hand-stretched noodles and delicious dumplings, describing the food truck as an "absolute gem" for authentic and nostalgic Chinese Xi'an flavors. The Liang Pi noodles, in particular, are highly recommended. Reviewers note that all the noodles and dumpling wrappers appear to be handmade, which is a rarity these days. The lo mein is also praised as one of the best takeaway lo meins. The convenient location near the Orange Market, which offers a great selection of drinks, and nearby metered parking, add to the overall positive experience.
