DELICIOUS fish and veggies with pan fried noodles!!!!

My brother purchased a lunch plate. The portion of this lunch plate was so so disappointing. I could of gone to Burger King and be satisfied with there lunch. By the way, he hated the taste of the food. He won't be going back to to this restaurant.

Went here for karaoke, what a mess with the staff there. A light complexion, Hispanic guy with dreads, and heavy set was drinking on the job got drunk and got a bit messy while making out with patrons there with advances to the patron private adult parts. What a hectic and sloppy by that staff member! And that same staff member got in to a argument with another patron there that, that same staff member caused issues with. It was just a hot mess.

Went there at 7pm on a Friday. Went to the second floor bar. Had some great Chinese food and drinks. It wasn't very busy. Apparently it gets busy later. Fun karaoke after 9.

I'll be honest, I accidentally walked in while trying to go to Santouka because I couldn't see the sign above my head and didn't realize until I was seated, but it was extremely worth it. Having gone to both places, I somehow have a greater craving for Hong Kong Restaurant between the two (lol). It's really close to campus and it was very comfortable working on an problem set while eating Pork Lo Mein. I also got an order of Fried Bananas to take back to the dorm before they closed for the night and it was delicious. Will definitely return soon!

Very disappointed in the egg drop soup and the experience not so great, couldn’t explain why my ID wasn’t valid. If the RMV said my ID is valid it’s valid. Especially if they’re making everyone wait for appointments to get what I received until the mail comes within whatever time period.

Amazingly fast service. Delicious, big and affordable meals. 11/10 would recommend.

Dude, is this place under new ownership? What happened to the teriyaki? It used to be awesome. Now it sucks. Bring back the old beef teriyaki please, I literally stopped coming here because you changed that.

I would give zero stars if that was an option. I do not know what happened to the old staff but I've seen newer people there and the quality of the service and the value has dramatically changed. I have been eating at this business for around 8 months and then all of sudden I was told that I cannot eat outside even though I bought food and I was told that I could in the past. I have been given the wrong order more than once. There are better local businesses to support around the area. Disappointing customer service.

Tasty food—even staples like Kung pao chicken have an extra zing. The staff is cordial and helpful. Menu is surprisingly affordable for Harvard square.
