Hong Kong City in Reading

Food was really delicious, staff were sweet on the phone. A busy Saturday night so delivery took the time they said. Would definitely use again.

Best chinese in reading! Tried different places but none have topped hong kong city yet. Good Portions, flavourful food. Tried Mixed meat in black bean sauce and yummmmm!!! Sweetcorn and chicken soup is how it should be done, chicken balls are tasty - crispy and the batter hugs the meat, very well made and not greasy! Duck 10/10.. I could go on. Don't be shy to try something different on the menu, it's easy to get stuck on familiars. Everything we have tried we've loved. Well keep coming back for sure! *pop in and pay using cash to help keep independent business's like this going*

Just a pain it's cash only,'other than that it's perfect!

Meal for 3 was lovely. Would feed 4 people.

Today we ordered take away from Hongkong city restaurant. This is our second visit. This is the best Chinese I have ever had in Reading and surrounding area. The quantity is really good. Please remember to carry cash as they accept cash only.

Great Chinese take away. Food always hot, fresh and delicious. Service is always polite and friendly. Only downside is that they are cash only.

Only go and try… very clear, good staff, nice food.

We've been ordering here for 3+ years. Yet to be let down. There is nothing oily or cut corners about the kitchen. Excellent quality and they make small adjustments for us, too. Kind, quick, delicious, and never greasy. The veg in any dish is super. Light tough and just lovely. If hungover they the prawn or chicken balls with dip. They are deep fat fried but OMg does it hit the spot. From calling in to pick up under 15 minutes. Very good adherence to covid-safe pick up. Lemon chicken crispy with perfectly zingy sauce, beef chow mein was tender and the noodles not greasy and just right for flavourings. Mushroom rice was perfect and fresh, no odd aftertaste, and a really lovely crispy duck pancake quarter without overcooking or gelatinous fat. The spring onion for the pancake was finely cut and all around a fantastic experience well worth the price and just such an indulgent treat. Thank you & see you soon!

Great food and friendly staff, thanks.

This is the best Chinese take away food that i have ever had!. Real Chinese food, not the usual fast food like.

Best Chinese in town, good pricing, good food , pleasant customer service

The noodles tasted different and the spring rolls have shrunk. Always fast and nice service.

Truly best Chinese takeaway in Reading. We’re ordering from them for few years now and have tried others and it’s always was disappointing somewhere else. Nice staff and always tasty food. Highly recommend.

Absolutely love this place, friendly staff are eager to help and adjust the menu to your taste. The only reason it's not 5 stars is that they only take cash. Fully recommend this take away as the best in Reading and have recommended it to new neighbours.

Best Chinese food in Reading and they make it to your taste. Good staff and customer service. Just order in advance they can take upto an hour including delivery

It never disappoints! We tried different Chinese takeaways in Reading and this one is definitely the best! Portions are large and everything I tired so far was good, the satay chicken on skewer is absolutely amazing, the best satay sauce I’ve ever had! The only downside is that it’s cash only, sometimes we have no cash and cash machine is a bit far hence we have to order from elsewhere… Other than that, great! 👌

Me and my partner always order from here, if you like your dishes a certain way they are happy to cater to your liking, fair price and very fast on delivery!

Overpriced for portion size. Crispy chilli beef, more vegetables and sauce than beef, trying to rip me off. Worst crispy chilli beef I’ve ever had

All good and with a smile. You can't knock it.

Great tasty food and best take away around, shame not on Uber or deliveroo

Really fantastic food. Would recommend for a great take-out. Food is always fresh and flavorsome. The staff are really nice and super-helpful. I don't know the delivery range, but parking around the shop is mostly permit/pay and display and it's worth getting it delivered if you can.

By far best Chinese in Reading! Hadn’t been in in a long time after moving out of town. I was glad to see the shop still thriving after 3 years of not being in. Especially with COVID. I was delighted by the service and the food made me hungry for more. Ordering again today 😊😁

The worst chinese my partner and I have ever eaten! Completely tasteless! Very disappointed and a £5 delivery charge to top it off!!

Friendly people and the best Chinese food they do

Prompt delivery nice and hot. Great food. Not greasy at all. Had the set meal for two. Loved it. One of the best.

My parents have a caravan facing this takeaway so as I visited this weekend I treated the family to a meal as my dad was unwell so we couldn't go on our planned dinner date. I ordered a King Prawn Sweet & Sour, Chicken Sweet & Sour and Pork Sweet Sour, paid for fried rice separately (no rice as part of meal) also Ordered a Pork Curry and boiled rice with Large chips. Well the Chips (overcooked Fries) went in the bin, the Pork was like chewing cardboard both meals went in the bin and the Fried Rice was spot the egg. Chicken & Prawn okay although the order was wrong, chicken was without batter but came covered in it. Prawn Crackers were nice and fresh two of the sweet sours also had no veg or Pineapple in the sauce, Not sure if they think that when you spend £40.00 here that your a one of visitor so they don't care, but won't be going back. Also noticed no food hygiene rating was available to be seen.

Horrible food this evening, everything was drenched in salty sauce. Unfortunately we wont be comng here again, the food used to be very good from here.

Delicious, tasty food. Quick for collection

Excellent food fair prices, recommend this take away.

Good food but cash only so stopped using them

Hands down been using this place for 10 years now and it is the best Chinese in Reading by far 💯 percent have tried others but nothing compares to this one .very friendly and the food is always so good.

Excellent take away. Had Chinese Chicken Curry and Beef Chow Mein and it was delicious and delivered hot to my hotel room.

I’m so disappointed with this Chinese takeaway. I genuinely typed in ˋBest Chinese takeaway in Reading’ and this came up. However from the delivery man, not communicating effectively. To the actual food. It’s been a disappointment. The egg fried rice wasn’t very nice. The ribs were very tough and not soft at all and so were the chicken wings. It’s really disappointing because I thought this would be amazing. The prawn crackers were the best thing about this takeaway. Very lovely people on the phone, but not nice food unfortunately.

We chose this place because all the reviews raved about it. It took an hour to come, paid for delivery and the guy took about 20 minutes to find the flat. Not the best. The food was not great either, I’d highly recommend Chop Suey House in West Reading. I think the food is much better there and the staff are so great too.

We ordered chicken satay and it was disgusting, chewy chicken and satay sauce so hot it burned our mouths, prawn balls chewy and tasteless, with a sauce that was not hot and jelly like in the middle. We did complain and were told sorry about that I will pass it onto the manager. £26.70 totally wasted, perhaps I should have taken the hint when I picked up the food and wondered why it was empty in there. Now we know, terrible food and could not recommend it to anybody. Should anybody ask I could only say steer well clear as there are much nicer places in the area. Just to be clear we will NEVER go back and will advise everybody else to do the same. My stomach is churning just thinking about how bad the food was.

My favourite fried rice take away

Top quality food cooked with fresh ingredients bursting with flavour. I highly recommend the Singapore Chow Mein👌 10/10

This is one of the best Chinese in the area, we order from here all the time. The food is always delivered in good time and hot. Our favourite is what we like to call prawn doughnuts (sweet and sour prawn balls). I ordered lamb in black pepper tonight and it was like beef, I called and they said it was definitely lamb but it didn’t taste like it, it was definitely better the last time I had it. Will definitely order again.

Great food and delivery service.

I've always loved my beef chow mein and Hong Kong chicken balls from here. There service is brilliant 😁

We were visiting the area on a boat and managed to persuade them to deliver to a pub car park by the river. Driver arrived on time and the food was hot and tasty. Saved their number in case we moor here again.

I have tried so many Chinese places since moving to Reading and have been disappointed each time, but this place is amazing! Delicious and good quality food each time we order.

Massive menu, great food every time, best Chinese takeaway in Reading by miles. Shame they only take cash though!

Hong Kong City is the Best Chinese Takeaway in Reading. The food tastes fresh and the spices taste great. Always piping hot. Friendly staff and very quick service. It’s the best.

The best Chinese we’ve ever had. It arrived within 30 minutes and was DELICIOUS! Highly recommend!

Very Good service and Best Chinese food in Reading Town, everyone should definitely try once. Good & fast delivery of foods throughout Reading area.

Best Chinese, plentry of flavour and authentic spices used. Not your run of the mill. Open kitchen you can see the cleanliness of the cook line. Top food

Got vegetarian dishes from here and they were not at all tasty. It might be good for non-vegetarians. Our quest for good Chinese continues..

Took my order, agreed to deliver - then said they’d only take cash. I said I didn’t have any ‘okay so you want to cancel, okay, bye!’ And hung up. Very poor.

Best one I’ve tried in Reading. Will definitely go back. The Chinese style chicken really nice. And the king po chicken great as well. Martin

Fresh food, friendly staff and 2-3 parking spaces for short term stay.

Friendly staff, tasty food and good prices. Probably one of my favourite Chinese aways in Reading!

It's a good archetype Chinese takeaway with the usual menu and usual standard of food but what makes it a regular for me is it is consistent, always good never bad or exelent but encredably reliably good, you know exactly what you are going to get and I prase them for that.

Favourite local Chinese, best dish is special chow mein

Been to a few Chinese takeaways in reading and this is definitely the best one I have hand food from in reading

A lot of delicious meals to choose from but oil can get nasty sometimes, I do not know why. I would love if they had a webpage to order. Prices are cheap. Only cash.

Last visited 20yrs ago and it was not good. Thus time very impressed and super value.

We have been using this take away for several years now, and not once have they delivered bad food. The quality standard is high and reliably always good. We will not be going anywhere else while it remains so. Keep up the good work folks

Nice food, good portion and well priced. There's quite a few good veggie options but always end up with the mushroom chow mein

Pretty good, I'm giving it 4 stars because it has a way to go for flavour to beat Wok on Wheels but that is closed due to a fire.

El año pasado, el servicio de pedidos telefónicos fue excelente, el personal del otro lado fue muy educado y amable. Claro, pacientes y rápido. Pero este año, durante bastantes veces, el personal siempre tiene prisa, no es claro, descortés e impaciente, incluso me ordenó la comida equivocada.El mal servicio me hizo no querer pedir comida para llevar de HK city más.La comida siempre es buena

Pedí un mein de setas solo para encontrar un pedazo de pollo bastante grande. Como vegetariano, esto es muy angustiante. Además, no hay ningún símbolo en el menú que indique si un plato es vegetariano o no. Como el platillo simplemente se tituló mushroom chow mein, creí que sería una apuesta segura, obviamente estaba equivocado. No parece que se suponía que había pollo, porque si no, ¿por qué habría sido solo una pieza?Estoy muy decepcionado y molesto, y me alegro de haberlo notado antes de comérselo todo, pero para ser honesto, el hecho de que me comí algo con el pollo me hace sentir un poco nauseabundo.

Food was really good and staff were friendly but it was quite expensive for a takeaway. Only accepts cash.

I've been going here for years and the service is excellent, quick and the food is always delicious! They do the best satay sauce and the crispy chilli beef is to die for!!! Highly recommend!! xxxxx

Beautiful food, best take away I have tasted. Delivery on time and nice and hot. Definitely have again.

Good portions and speed service. Noodles needed more salt though.

Food was absolutely amazing, especially the crispy duck, I love being able to actually shred it myself! Was definitely worth venturing out to

Delicious food, great price and super friendly staff. BE WARNED they don't accept cards so take cash! They also deliver which is very quick!

Didn't get one part of my order. Wanted me to pay for delivery again, ridiculous. Shame because the food we did get was nice.

Aboustlety amazing chinse food one egg fried rice is enough for 3people as so much an the chicken balls u get so many for £16 .50 u get so much food

Great place; hot and fresh, best value for money in town, friendly staff

Consistently good Chinese take-away. Has an excellent rating (5/5) for hygiene and food safety from local council and staff are always friendly and helpful.

This place does the best salt and pepper chicken I have tasted! Fast delivery and always hot and fresh. 10 out of 10 for sure.

Just want to say that we had a fantastic meal and thank you for our Christmas gift a China tea cup it's lovely.

Yo a veces ir con mi marido a ser cuando estamos demasiado cansados para cocinar. Normalmente nos dan la comida para uno como es mucho mejor que las comidas para dos personas o más. Cena para 4 es especialmente mala relación calidad-precio. Cuando recoja la comida usted mismo, es super rápido. Envio a domicilio puede ser super lento.

Excellent East Asian food and very prompt delivery service. Happy to customize dishes according to preference/allergy and very reasonably priced.

Love the food, fantastic staff..you will be back for more

He estado usando este lugar con mucha más frecuencia ya que mi señora acabaron con un amigo desde el gimnasio, así se hayan familiarizado con el menú de la ciudad de Hong Kong. Tengo que decir que es bastante bueno y fresco, puedes ver a los cocineros detrás del mostrador. Las bolas de pollo son excelentes, con una masa crujiente y muy sabrosa salsa dulce y agria. Quizás los precios son un poco elevados, particularmente con tanta competencia... pero bueno, son normalmente ocupado y así la gente parece dispuesto a pagar.

was ripped off. charged 8 pounds twenty for meal that said 5 pounds thirty on menu. only found out later.

By far my favourite take away. Always good service, great food and reasonable prices/quantity.

tastes amazing, always hot and quick if you pick up, full of flavour,, nicely priced, staff are very nice

Regularly & consistenty good takeaway food here, the Kung Po King prawn dish being a favourite. Friendly service.

Since moving house and discovering Hong Kong City just around the corner from us, we have had fairly mixed experiences of it. The crispy duck is usually good, as is the rice. Though, there really is not much to say about it in difference to other Chinese takeaways in town. It is better than some, and worse than some.In regards to price, on the other hand, I find myself struggling to find a reason to visit Hong Kong City. Especially now that Golden Rice, slightly further away, has changed hands again and become great again whilst offering free delivery, it is generally cheaper to get a delivery from another takeaway rather than walk around the corner to here. As well as this, appetizer portion sizes at Hong Kong City are considerably smaller than, say, dumplings or prawn toast would be at another takeaway - and at a higher cost here.Given that the cost is higher and the quality indifferent, Hong Kong City falls down to somewhere we do not order from very often, which is a shame because they could offer so much better value given its proximity.

Food is very tasty and the potions a good size to share. A bit more expensive than I'm used to though.

Maybe a monthly visit on a Friday night a the end of the pre-weekend trek down from town. A good selection of Eastern food. Portions are a bit large for solo eating but leftovers do freeze down. Fu Yung and Duck in Black Bean Sause is my fav.

amazing food and reasonable prices

The House Special Chow-mien is the best I have ever had and I have had a few, if this was master chef they just won! I find it a pain being more than 3 miles away and you have to order over £15 for them to accept an order plus a delivery charge. My wife loves the Mongolian Lamb so 2 very happy food customers for the food, it has to be a special occasion at the price though so a once a month option, which may keep it special. Highly recommend the quality and quantity of the food. Thanks Honk Kong City.
