Looks and feels like a 1970's Chinese restaurant -- not that that's a bad thing. Very nostalgic. Large menu, including American favorites (like General Tso's chicken) and more authentic dishes that Americans rarely try. All the food we ordered was excellent! And reasonably priced!! Very attentive service! I highly recommend it.

Food was great and service was great for a big group in Chinatown. Cash only.

Great spot for old school classic Cantonese food! With all the nouveau Chinese spots mushrooming around town, it’s comforting to come back to one’s roots sometimes. I appreciate the efficient service, the portions and quality.

This restaurant gives me a taste of home at Hong Kong 🥹 the food is so fresh and authentic; also the price is amazing given how big the portion is. Will come again!!!

Met a local Chinese Aunty on the bus and after a bit of friendly chit chat, she highly recommended Hop Lee Restaurant in Chinatown.

Our meal was simply Amazing! 👏

They really know how to prepare delicious, authentic Cantonese food, and I found my new favorite Fried Chilly Salted Pork dish! 😋

The service was friendly and fast, the food was hot and everyone on the team could not have been nicer. Make this a culinary stop on your next visit to Manhattan. 📷

Authentic old school Cantonese style food! My Chinese family and I enjoyed a private event here with exceptional flavors and excellent service. Everything was prepared perfectly, the food is high quality. The Cantonese fried lobster fried with egg and pork was my favorite, the beef tenderloin with veggies were also good. The walnut shrimp and friend fish filet were impressive. Come here for authentic food!

Had dinner there with friends who knew the owner and the food well. We had a 40min long wait on a Saturday night during the lunar new year celebrations but it was worth it. Great razor clams, great snow peas, great noodles and pork. Everything tasted very fresh and well seasoned. It is packed inside during dinner so those looking for vast personal space during COVID peaks should do lunch instead.

My Partner and I were walking through Chinatown after a day of sightseeing in NYC and found this gem. Our meal was amazing. They really know how to prepare delicious, authentic Chinese food, and I found my new favorite beer. The service was fast, the food was hot and everyone on the team could not have been nicer. Make this a culinary stop on your next visit to Manhattan.
