Review Hong's Kitchen - Auckland Central

Michelle Watson
Love their options and helpful staff. Good for takeaway too.. love their BBQ & Crispy Pork and Squid. We spent my daughters birthday here, with 14 people around the table. Lots of great dishes to choose from.

Chinese eatery located in small "strip mall". Huge portions that almost guarantee take home leftovers. Eggplant hotpot was delicious as was the seafood with deep fried noodles. Food arrived promptly but service was just ok. Plenty of seating in an aging restaurant.

One of those great local spots you end up discovering. Probably the best value for money for a restaurant I’ve been to in Auckland. The portions were HUGE, which gave us enough extras to take home and have dinner with. I would recommend the crispy pork belly - one of the better pork bellies I’ve had. And I’m super picky with pork belly!! Don’t come here if you’re looking for great service or a quiet atmosphere - the waitresses seemed disinterested and not terribly friendly - but the food arrived quickly. Would come here again!

The Peking duck here is the best I’ve ever had! Everything else was really good too - fried noodles, clay hotpot.
JS KWUN
Had a very good and delicious dinner out here. Generous portions, big parking area, a family restaurant atmosphere. Has given us easter eggs to celebrate easter. :) Service was okay, food was great. Recommended.

Jay Jafari

Awesome lumch time value meals. Large servings!!!! Get in early befor they get too busy, otherwise there could be a bit if wait time. Tasty menu and values for money. Open 7 days a week, handy location with plenty parking spaces in front.

Will be back again. Loved everything that we ordered. Best of all we could take our left overs home.
Charred Lamb
Great food, good generous portion. Staff are friendly and helpful.

It's a good place, been there quite few times, and the dishes are definitely made by professional Cantonese chefs, just bit disappointed with “Fish-flavored eggplant pot”鱼香茄子煲, think long purple eggplants with pork mince well be better, after all this dish is not cheap.
John Luong
Good restaurant in the West Auckland and friendly staff. Excellent service and Yummy food too.
Catherine Kay Escol
Love this little hidden gem in Westgate. The food is fresh and tasty, generous portions too! I love their bbq pork, roast duck, crispy pork belly and soy chicken! Great value for money for a good filling lunch or dinner. My go to Cantonese restaurant in the area for the last 5 years.

Their $20 daily lunch specials is of generous proportions.

Good price = good portions👍🏼👍🏼<br/>

The best roast pork ever... The crispy skin was so delicious and light - it felt like I was eating chips!! 🤤 Will be back. 🤗<br/><br/>🥢Roast pork<br/>🥢Salt and pepper fish<br/>🥢Roast duck<br/>🥢Red cooked marinated tofu

Awesome Chinese place that is clean and consistent with their dishes. They do combination meats on rice as well as classic guangzhong influenced dishes. Great for big gatherings or a quick lunch.

Went to Hong’s Kitchen tonight for a birthday dinner! Food was delicious. Portions are huge! Great value for money. Roast pork and squid were our faves off the menu! We will be back!!

This is my absolute favourite authentic chinese restaurant. The Peking Duck is amazing, the spicy prawns and pork belly are my other favourites. The staff are all so friendly and its such good value for money. Its great when you have a large group and all share meals.
Emily Kuang
Food here is really nice, a little over priced. customer service is poor. Waitress has attitude with everything they serve towards their customers. I overheard them smirking and talking about customers, yelling at customers aswell
Vanessa Lim
First time diner as it is our nearest Chinese restaurant and my husband was craving for duck. We ordered takeaway - half roast duck and chicken mince with eggplant. Halfway through the eggplant dish we found 2 strands of hair in our takeaway box and had to instantly throw the rest away. Sad as the food was good but Will never come here again.
Jane Brebner
My husband and I frequently go to Hongs. We have travelled around the whole world and feel Hongs is even better than the many chinese restaurants we have been to. The prawns and sweet and sour chicken are exceptional and the service is great. It is definitely one of our favourites.
Amy Jordan
We have heard about Hongs for a long time so tonight we ordered takeaways. Blown away by the service that was above and beyond and the food was absolutely delicious. The best BBQ pork! We will definitely be back to dine in next time :)
Justice Aaliyah
We ordered two dishes with a side of spring rolls.<br/>Seafood noodle dish, had burnt noodles, wasn't eatable, there was more veges then anything else! Fish was big chucky pieces<br/>Beef something, only had 8 pieces & the rest was that noodles crap! Asked for more meat but they said its a noodle dish &said we should've ordered the other beef shit<br/>The spring rolls were two, but cut in half<br/>Overall it was expensive & horrible that they put more veges or noodles on a dish that aint what the dish stated!<br/>Totally of these ridiculous dishes was $48
R & A
The food here was very nice. Plates are expensive but very large. Be careful not to over order like we did. Slightly upper class Chinese cuisine. 7/10
Yusoff Kamal
Delicious food and generous portion.<br/><br/>This place is really busy Luckily we have booked a table for 6.<br/><br/>The format of the restaurant is not big but one round table can accommodate at least 10 people.<br/>Definitely worth going in large groups.<br/><br/>We selected various meat dishes and everything just come out delicious.<br/><br/>Definitely recommend this place!!
Keriata Peters
Very reasonably priced. Delicious roast pork and BBQ pork. A regular for me and my partner when we're craving good Chinese food. 👍<br/>Roast duck is also very good. And excellent customer service as well.

Been here quite alot. Food is always great and consistent. Some fantastic dishes. Dishes aren't all that cheap but very large. Great place to go with 2 or more people.
Lucyeatsakld
Large portions of food here! Three dishes between 4 people was more than enough. Dishes come out very quickly and staff are very accommodating.
Madhu Vel East
For $19, I was curious to find out the flavor in your fried rice considering such high price. Definitely not worth its price. Thank you though, it did fill me up.
Jade Shen
The size of the serving is huge. But the menu is somehow confusing. Ordered fried noodles but got a dry deep fried crispy noodle nest. $25 for take away quality fried noodles/rice is pricy.<br/>Went with my family. Had to wait for almost half hour to get my husband and my food which were really just fried rice and noodles. My parents had almost finished their food by the time we got ours...
Food?
Definitely a family favourite. Great thing about this place is that the portion sizes are unreal. Would recommend the roast duck, a side of vegetables with some rice.
Julia
The Chinese food is somewhat oily, and the restaurant food was cooked modestly, especially roast duck which was surprising because it had a lot of quantity compared to the price.
Kim Alexander
We have visited Hong’s Kitchen numerous times in the past and the food is delicious. So I was really gutted when I took my son here today and we sat for about 10-15 mins and watched while the staff served everyone around us including people who walked in after us. I got up to see if someone was at the counter to place my order, but there want anyone there either. Sad to say we walked out and went elsewhere
Brandon Epapara
The food was ok but unfortunately didn’t understand full English so asking for extras other than the menu was hard. But other than that the duck was good.
Mike M
One of my family’s go to spot for not just Chinese food but for dinner in general. It’s a little pricy but the portion size is pretty big. Also extremely flavourful and did I mention the portion size?
Rochelle Holland
I dont have a lot of experience with Chinese food but I was really impressed with the flavours and portion sizes. Prices are a bit high but considering the portion sizes are very generous I think you get your moneys worth. Based on the food I would love to go back and experience more of the menu! Place looks small from the outside but is actually very spacious inside.

This is our favourite chinese restaurant. Service is always friendly and very sufficient. Our meals came out within 10minutes after ordering, and we always order at least 5 dishes. <br/><br/>Portions are massive! so this is the perfect place to go to with big groups, you’d have a hard time finishing off the dishes for smaller groups.<br/><br/>All dishes tastes pretty authentic. Would recommend anything from the menu, really, especially the salt pepper squid. Sizzling lamb is also done to perfection, soft & tender. The duck meaty & soft, without much fat.<br/>Would highly recommend this place!
Aman
Had takeaway from here for dinner last night. The food had a good amount of flavouring and but it did taste like had been siting there for awhile and maybe it was because I went like 20 mins before closing so that could have been the reason. I will be going back to try it again.
Chung On Tsui
Bought some roast pork fried rice, and stir fry beans (Beans with Olive and Pork Mince) for takeaway but have to say I was quite disappointed. For the roast pork fried rice, the rice was hard and dry, so each mouthful gets quite chewy. The ingredients were ok, plenty of roast pork, the taste and portion size were ok too.<br/> <br/>The stir fry beans was ok taste wise, I would say it's a little oily but it's acceptable.<br/><br/>Overall, the low score was more to do with the fried rice, I've had other dishes before in previous visits and they were ok but the fried rice this time round was not acceptable, consider the price they charged ($19)
Jade Lim
Hong's Kitchen is situated in a pretty strategic place, and there's ample parking around. <br/><br/>Price + portion + taste = good value<br/><br/>We had the Roasted Pork, Fried Squid, Sizzling Beef, Clay pot Eggplant and Peking Duck (2 courses)... All were good. Can't decide which was my favourite. <br/><br/>Worth to give it a try. Will be back!
Me And Myfood
This is our second visit. We are very happy with the food and service. Their complimentary soup is a killer. All of their food is very nice and tasty. And their portions are very generous, so if you are not a big eater, you should definitely consider sharing your meal with someone else. Staff are very friendly and concise with your orders.
Vanessa Gao
My family is very picky about Chinese food, especially being chinese myself so when they approved Hong’s Kitchen I knew we were at a good place. The dish sizes are huge with a very good pricing, their Peking duck is also very nice and large. Food is super filling with wonderful customer service. You know they don’t skimp on ingredients here for you, everything is worth the money.
Josie
I recently discovered this place and wow I am so happy I did! Amazing food and the portions are insane! One meal could feed four people. It’s very tight with space though so I wouldn’t recommend this place to a person with a stroller or wheelchair as you couldn’t get anywhere without having to move tables.
JJJiiiiAn
(Regular customer)*Have been to Hong’s Kitchen more than 20+times’ This place gets very busy on weekends! I would say the food is not the best but pretty good and affordable ($13 lunch isn’t cheap but it comes with BIG portion). Service is always friendly and warm, there was one time the boss lady did not charge $$ because we waited for quite a long time. •
Johanson Johansonson
This place is a shit hole, avoid at all costs, unless you want too pay 80$ for two people to eat half a plate of food that's spit warm and wait an hour for food if you aren't Chinese
Ravi
The location is good since it is located next the Events cinemas. You can have your meal here with your friends or family before or after you see the movies. The customer service is good. There are many options here in their menu. Also the noodles they use is really tasty.
Teddy Summers
Terrible service. Ordered the crispy duck which was nice but mainly the bone cut so not a lot of meat . My partner ordered a noodle soup dish . Which was forgotten about. When she asked for more complimentary soup as she was hungry after waiting 15 minutes from when my order arrived. She was refused anymore complimentary soup , inside advised this soup would need to be paid for. I finished my meal before hers arrived. We decided to cancel her meal as I was now finished and the purpose of going out is to eat together. After a heated discussion. He left as they still wanted us to pay for her meal. We ended up leaving without being charged for either meal. The staff were also rude.

We asked for the vegetable soup that you get for free,<br/>but you guys said that its only for chinese people <br/>and we felt it very rude as a costumer. <br/>We prefer not going to you shop ever again.
Billy Chandraa
Doesnt look very welcoming from the outside. <br/>But as soon as you walked in, its so warmth and clean.<br/>One of the cleanest chinese restaurant i have ever been in the suburb. <br/>For the food wise, I had a crispy pork on rice.<br/>Rice was very fresh and the pork is also crispy on the outside. $14 for a...
Emerson
Their bbq pork on rice is so so good definitely need to eat in here sometime since I usually get mine to go. The inside looks really nice as well.
Jan
The best Chinese restaurant I've been to in awhile. We went here for a birthday dinner and Cara was an exceptional waitress, no request was too much for her inspite of how busy the restaurant was at dinner time. We requested, chilli sauce and to ensure that the combination rice didn't include beef. She made things happen and was attentive. Would go here again! Not just because of excellent service, the food was delicious!! Large portions but each bite was flavoursome! Just thinking about last night's dinner makes me want to crave it. Thank you Hong's kitchen for such an awesome night!
Mel
Went here for lunch yesterday and loved it!! Dishes were delivered within 20mins, duck was so yummy! Would definetly come back here for lunch or dinner!<br/>We ordered the bbq roast pork on rice, the roast duck on rice and the chicken fried rice and all dishes were piping hot and delish 😍😍
Rin
Its Hong like Donkey Kong 😉 Massive portions, cooked well, friendly service and clean premises. Will dine regularly. I recommend the salt and pepper ribs and sweet and sour fish fillets. But whatever you like Im sure you will find it. Dont order too much because the size is insane. Enjoy 😊
Sofia Rask
I have lived out west for two years now and always gone pass this restaurant because it doesn't look much to the world from the outside. Went in the other day and got pleasantly surprised about the size and the atmosphere of the restaurant. Little bit "scruffy old Chinese" shop but still way better than what I thought. Food was great! Big tasty portions and by far the best Asian I have had in a while. Service was OK. I understand that with only tree girls on the floor on a public holiday night and a packed restaurant, service may be slow. Would love to go back.
Ken
One of the best Chinese restaurants out West. We've been there about 6-8 times. Pretty consistent and authentic. Huge servings so do note this when ordering. The noodles dishes are very good. Also tried Peking duck and various dishes. Always full though, seems like more people know about them these days.
Eva Zhu
Mums friends told us to come here, we had heard great things. Service was fantastic! <br/>We received complimentary roast pork which was the sweetest thing. Everything tastes fine, duck was crispy, very oily as per usual, the soup was ok, didn't have much flavor, the beans and scallop stir fry was a bit bland, really was expecting more from that dish. The sizzling beef was pleasant, a bit intense on the pepper though but that goes with many other restaurants. One thing we did notice was that the dishes were rather small, for the prize that we were paying we didn't expect so little... Wouldn't be jumping up and down to go back anytime soon, but still wouldn't mind :) a great atmosphere nonetheless
Abby Winefield
Has to be the most authentic, tasty Chinese food in west Auckland. Definitely recommend the hot and spicy prawns.Fantastic friendly service. No one else compares!
Emma
Had been dying to try this place and unfortunately was pretty disappointed. Opted for takeaways and ordered bbq pork but got home and ended up with roast pork. The other food was big sized but not great tasting and definitely not worth the higher prices. Worst bit was being first in line to order but all the Asian customers behind me got served/ordered before they would even acknowledge me. Very odd and wouldn't go back
Laura Ransome
I was recommended to eat here by a friend, it's unexpected treasure find that I would come back to again and again. The best way to describe it is high quality Chinese food. It's all the same dishes you'll find in a normal Chinese restaurant but it's of a really high standard. My partner and I had the squid, spring rolls, crispy pork on rice and combination egg noodles. The first three were just amazing, the food tasted fresh and flavoursome! The combination noodles was average in comparison. It's more expensive than normal places but still reasonable and you leave feeling full and happy. Huge portions as well, I'd recommend sharing 1-2 dishes.

My family and I were delighted to have discovered this place since our move to Westgate! We were craving Canton cuisine which we were regulars of in Avondale and when we found out there was one here, we decided to book a table straight away.<br/><br/>As expected, food was amazing and in large portions. We ordered about 5 dishes for a family of 7.<br/>I would definitely recommend the special egg tofu and the braised pork belly and taro!<br/><br/>Service was above average for Chinese restaurants which is always a good thing. Waitresses despite not being fluent in English, still made attempts to communicate and make friendly small talks with us.<br/>Pricing is well thought out, quite cheap for the portions you get.<br/>Thumbs up! <br/>UPDATE: 5/JULY/2015 <br/>Came in to dine. Just had to let you know, most amazing peking duck in Auckland. Really cheap too. So crispy and no foul duck smell. Very tasty and not too overpowered. Generous amount of steamed wraps too. Another table next to us ordered 5 whole peking ducks. That's how good it was. Must try!
Tony Wan
Just been there with a few friends.  Ordered a few simple dishes.  Taste is good.  Service is good.  Good customer relationship.  Recommended if you are happy with their prices.  Will probably visit the place again.
Jon Reid
I love eating here as much as one can fill your plates over a d over and then pop next door for a movie food is good selection and when I've gone is mostly fresh apart from times when business is slow like at night or early evenings as to be expected
Na-kita Na-kita
Really love the new dinner menu. They have an awesome new seafood and sushi selection. and for around $30+ all you can eat that's really good especially having salmon and oysters on the menu. I really love the Banana pudding and the won ton soup. all the food is really good I have been dining here for a while now and I really like the new changes. The people that work there are really nice too always say thank you and bye when u leave.
Mrs Osborne
Lovely people excellent selection. We have been going their for years. I love the Pekin Duck!!!!!!! Will continue for dine there for years to come.
