Hong Kong Express in Isle of Wight

Food was absolutely amazing! Will definitely visit again when back on the island!!

Had chowmein and it was really good. They said their chicken is halal so thag was great!

Ordered for collection, order came to £38.70 which costs us at our local Chinese in Newport £28 delivered. Arrived to pick it up asked if it came with free prawn crackers and they said no which all other chineses we have been to give when you spend over a certain amount. Dishes were all dry and not filled to the top. Would not suggest to anyone.

The food was Terrible all of it not one good thing and we spent over £100 would not Recommend Not even to an enemy

Ordered food online with them 2 days ago the food came promptly even tho they had technical issues. I always call up to make sure if my order went through. Service was great, Food was piping hot. Would recommend the Dragon Fire hot and spicy it really warms you up in those winter days we are in :)

Delivery was 3 hours late and zero customer service rating, no appoligies manager stated we will take your food back then when complaints were made shocking service

Friendly staff. Food was ok, but very small portions for the price. I would call this a tourist trap.

Service and food amazing would of liked a more oriental music vibe but the music itself was really nice 10/10 would recommend

Best Chinese in isle of wight with halal chicken. Very tasty

I regularly visit Hong Kong express it’s one of my favourite places to go.

On holiday for my partners birthday and ordered a takeaway to celebrate. Delivery was easy and no issues- but on inspection there was no pancakes for the duck. Called but as they told us they would get it out to us in 10-15 mins we left it. The actually meal itself was honestly the worst Chinese takeaway we’ve ever had. All the meat was dry and chewy, the noodles were bone dry and everything was sooo salty. Called up to speak to someone and all I got was well ‘everyone else was happy so it must be you’. Never In my life have I been treated in such a way! The manager put the phone down on me as it was way to busy to deal with me. After calling back got told the only way he could ‘deal’ with me was to bring the food back. So I had to go out of my way to bring the food back to the restaurant. Got greeted by 2 members of staff, scrambling through the food making out we were lying. One of the members of staff behind the bar started laughing at me, which no one should ever be subjected to. After telling him to stop laughing at me, I was accused of being racist. Completely and utter unacceptable. One of the best worst experiences I have ever been apart of. Never ever will I ever return and I hope if you’re reading this you don’t ever treat anyone else the same way.

Really good food and service, not overpriced.

This is by far the worst chinese food i've ever tasted. It tasted like the food was cooked weeks ago and reheated. Do not use this restraunt.

Went there the other day, food was amazing the atmosphere was perfect and service was just excellent it’s inexpensive and perfect for the family plus the guy in back called rios is so kind and all around really kind would suggest 10/10

Genuinely an incredible atmosphere, great food and pretty inexpensive. The moment you walk in, you're greeted with friendly staff and sat down. Has a great way of ordering too, write down what you want on the paper they hand you and hand it over to the staff. Like filling out a simple form! It's a very clever method as it makes for a lot less incorrect orders. The food is amazing, tastes fantastic, ok portions and a good price. I reccomend getting some extra rice with anything too.

What a fabulous Chinese meal. Loads of meat prawns chicken duck all cooked fresh. Lovely and 🔥

The food was OK but really oily and left a horrible taste for hours after eating

I really like the owner of this place. He pay good attention to the customers and the food quality. I will return.

We had a takeaway and we really enjoyed it lots of food prices wasn’t to bad I would recommend if your looking for a Chinese

Great food, tasty and hot when delivered.

Used to be good--avoid and go to Bizzy Wok in the high street instead 👍🏻 Our food was dry tasted old and a bit 'off' too. Manky noodles and veg. Pork balls hard and old dry past it's faff pork inside. Really expensive as well for aged ingredients. Not good. Only came because BW was closed today. Never again

This has been the only Chinese I would eat for the last 8 years, however not anymore. I will not be ordering again. Every order lately has been wrong or missing something and the portion sizes are getting smaller while the price has gone up. And for some reason they have started putting chilli in all the rice and noodles without ever asking if you now want it spicy and why is the special fried rice covered in curry paste? Disgusting and such a waste of money, time to find a new Chinese as this one is clearly under new management and they suck. The person on the phone sounds asleep and didn't know what anything is.

The hotness in the food wad excellent

delicious food! ordered the pork fu yung

Really nice experience, just enough food

We really enjoyed our food, the people working there were very attentive for they did their best to check everything is ok and make us feel comfortable. The two person meal was great for what we got, it had lots of different variety. The cooks are from China and many of the customers as well, so you know that you're getting an authentic experience. I can't tell you it was the finest culinary experience and I also can't tell you that it was healthy, but for a seaside Chinese restaurant we were all happy.

Portions seemed a bit small for the price. Service left a bit to be desired. It is the first Chinese restaurant to serve only Fosters on tap.

First time in the place.Beef noodles had no beef in it so I went back and they cooked a portion of beef with msg, salt and sugar and black been and tossed it in with my original no beef noodles and made the dish too salty to eat. The beef also was tough like beek jerky. Seriously it was a disaster. I'm on holiday with my family and friends was going to go back with a party of 10 people but definitely not. Chef with the tattoo on his neck looks like he couldn't be arse to recook my meal so told the Philippino dish washer to do it. Disgusting and therefore they just lost out on their table for ten booking. Girl server was new but lovely

Been here twice in a week thanks to the set vegan dinner, so filling and tasty! Really enjoyed both times and good spot for people watching 😊

Chicken chowmein was spicy..first I ever had that was spicy. Cook forgot to add salt to Noodles, returned and staff told me there was salt but maybe not to my preference. 🙄 I’m a mum who cook from scratch, he simply forgot to add salt! Service so so. Waste of £15

Delicious food, fair prices, big portions. Loved it

Strong distinction between the prices of takeaway and eat in, but as far as I tasted - it was pretty good! I grabbed a takeaway with my partner since we didn't know when we would get picked up, and the food came quickly. We then wandered out towards the pier to eat, and it was well cooked and had a nice twist to it that I don't often see in other places. We ordered the pork fried rice and beef fried rice - both with good portions of meat and excellent taste. Would recommend! But it can be a little more expensive than other places for similar portions. Nothing too expensive though or not worth the price

Had a great meal for one at the Hong Kong Express. Now I know why the restaurant is called Express. The staff were swift to take my order, the kitchen quickly cooked my meal and my meal was brought to table with an instant smile. Good meal, plenty of menu choice, the restaurant is very clean. Happy to give the Hong Kong Express in Ryde the Harry badge of approval if you want a decent meal at a decent price. Thank you.

Really excellent authentic dishes. Beer should be a little cooler

Food is ok, service not so much....

Strange way of placing on order,but a very very tasty big portioned evening came out,which was amazing. We were both very impressed by what we had. Friendly staff. Very enjoyable

The food is good and Hong Kong taste. The store owners have very friendly service.

Received my takeaway last night, it came piping hot and was very fresh. The food tasted very authentic.

A good option in Ryde for having Chinese food. Quantity and quality of food are both decent and wholesome. We tried their pork chow mein and chicken fried rice. Also has a small bar, should you fancy a drink at your table. Forgot to notice if there's an in-house toilet though.

Wonderful staff and fantastic food so warm and friendly

The staff are very welcoming and the food is amazing! The food is very authentic and very filling. They allow you to choose the amount of each food you order and there are many different types of delicious food to choose from. The place is nice and clean too. 5 stars!

Fantastic takeaway. We are all usually fussy about our takeaways but this was amazing. We chose four different dishes and all were absolutely amazing. Really good value as well. Definitely go for the chow mein and the sweet and sour Hong Kong style!

Set meal b, what can i say,most went in the bin,fried rice very dry,reheated and had a sour off taste, beef curry had red chillies and red and green peppers,the beef was slimy and tasted of fish,that tells me its likely to be off,chicken satay very dry to the point it just fell apart this must be days old and reheated. Sweet and sour chicken very hard chicken over cooked. Plain noodles how do you get them it dry and tasteless they were disgusting. Chicken and sweetcorn soup,this was just about acceptable If i lived on the island i would nevet have anything from here and i could not reccommend, eating herr

Amazing place food was great and staff was very friendly also clean and tidy good ambiance. Highly recommended.

Friendly staff and very helpful and speedy service

We are really disappointed. The food was lukewarm, and the chicken was really tough, you could barely chew it. There was hardly a drop of sauce with our chilli chicken and the whole meal was pretty rubbish. We definitely won't be ordering from here again. Would advise anyone to save their money and jaw muscles and just go else where

Made me sick food was disgusting

Everything was over cooked the ribs were watery and full of vinegar rice was dry and the food came cold

Basically extortion!!!! Food is bland and tasteless which is amazing considering how much fat, garlic and onion all these dishes are swimming in. Average of 8-9 pound a dish the portion sizing is appropriate for a 3 year old if that 3 year old was the size of a woodlouse. I understand its main purpose is to serve drunkards at 2am to see them on their way home (as represented in the 90s dentist office decor) but my god have some joy for what you're doing. Please if this is your only option at 4am on a Wednesday in January then fine take it just make sure you've had a meeting with your financial advisor before hand. If you are anywhere near sober at any decent time of day use any other Chinese in the area because even lucky house (where even Ethiopian children wouldn't eat) would be more worth your time and money then Hong Kong Express.

Very nice place to eat near Ryde. Good food, superior food quality and best service. I would love to go again if i am in Isle of Wight.

A wonderful venue. Extremely clean & hygienic. The staff couldn't be more helpful. Beautifully decorated for the festive season

If you want something authentic ask for the Chinese menu 👍

The food was good and lots of variety to choose from. Friendly staff

Absolutely amazing the food was so Tasty we wished we could visit the Isles of Wight more often. The waiter was so helpful nothing was a problem for him. Thank you very much.

Wonderful meal, excellent service and great background music in comfortable surroundings. First class!

Called here for evening meal after reading some great reviews,fell flat on its face for us! Yes our waitress was friendly and attentive,the decor was better than i'd imagined after reading reviews,but we were here for the food! My wife ordered beef with onion and green peppers,I chose beef in hoisin sauce. When the meals came(with rice),they looked pretty good,however,neither meals had enough "sauce",my wifes lacked onions and peppers,except the odd one,and both of us commented on our slices of beef,although plentiful,were very dry as if pre-cooked or excessively overcooked and left to dry! Sorry. Might be different for it's takeaways,can't comment on them.

I revisited this restaurant a few days ago, having been absent for some months. The chicken and mushroom soup is really excellent - delicately flavoured, almost a touch of haute cuisine, and certainly the best I have had in or from a Chinese restaurant. Lemon chicken was also excellent not at all glutinous, as it often can be, but fresh and tangy. Egg fried rice pleasing too. Pancake rolls are crispy, and and come with a little dish of sweet and sour sauce for dipping, if you wish. Some dishes here in the past have not been so good. Chop suey dishes, for example, MUST be served on hot plates or they quickly become greasy and unappetizing. However, my recent meal was a most enjoyable experience . Service is always friendly, polite and efficient. I shall return soon.

Mediocre bland food, overpriced. No atmosphere. Awful English music, I like to hear Chinese music in a Chinese restaurant. Staff were pleasant enough but it’s rude to put chairs on tables when they’re still open and people are still eating.

Great meal with my college friends,really tasty food and good service.

Friendly staff and service plus delicious food. I should probably have ordered just 1 main as effectively the set dinner gave me 2. FAR too delicious to leave any (like everyone else seemed to) so I was pretty full at the end.

Always very welcoming. Friendly staff and excellent Chinese food. Good service

Food was excellent and we enjoyed it very much. Best place to eat. And the prices are very reasonable. The service was warm and welcoming.

Have always walked past this place when in Ryde during our holidays. But never again! We've always struggled to find a sit in when fancying a chinese and now we've found our go to place. After speaking to a lovely lady called Donna sat outside we decided to give it a try. Food was fantastic, great portions and good value for money. Owner ia a great guy. So Tommy keep up the good work. We'll see you next September when we're back on the island. John & Dawn

Very very good Chinese. The best Schezwan i have tasted. Cannot fault the food. Fast and friendly service and will definitely return.

I revisited the place just after the season stopped and everyone has gone back go school. The staff recognised me and greeted me as I was their friend which I think was lovely. It was a lovely Wednesday evening and I ordered something that is not on the menu. Its some form of dumpling pan fried with chicken and vegetables, it came with some garnish spring onions soy, chilli and sesame seeds. I can say it was absolutely delicious I hope they will add that on the Main menu soon. For mains I had the roast duck sze Cuban style #66 accompanied with sole steamed rice #29 The combination is great and you can taste the full flavour of the dish the rice really compliments the dish. As for the waiting staff they have been very friendly and attentive checking on me if everything was ok and if I wanted another beer. To conclude you can not fault this place I’ll be back soon!

Friendly staff food was excellent.

Great food here and very helpful staff quite a nice place to sit and have a meal.

I wish I had checked the score before eating. The food was served less than five minutes after ordering, never a good sign. It was cold, they can't even use the microwave properly. Not only that, extremely expensive as well. Huge disappointment. Lots of other food options along the road.

Visited here one evening with my family on a busy august evening . We were greeted by a friendly member of staff and taken to the table. The food came out hot and tasted delicious. Even though they were busy they checked back to make...

The food was excellent and the service was great. Inspite of ordering the wrong dish the establishment were more than happy to replace it for no cost. Highly recommended for both the food and service.

Spent £45 worth of food and forgot half of it. Wasnt a problem until I called them and they told me they couldn’t be bothered to speak to me on the phone

The rudest customer service I have ever encountered. Made a pricey takeaway order which resulted in missing items and incorrect food. When I tried to call them to see if we could get the issue sorted, before I even had a chance to explain the...

Went in last night and placed an order to take away, after a very long wait for our food we got home realised that food was missing so called to see if this could be corrected. I was met with a very rude response saying...

Best Chinese I've had in the south!!! Fast service, good fresh ingredients, was more than happy to tip!

This restaurant is in a great location on Ryde Esplanade. We turned up without having made a booking and staff made us very welcome from the outset. I was immediately struck by the immaculate cleanliness of this restaurant. Everywhere was spotless, including the bathroom. I...

We had visited the Hong Kong the previous week 4 of us for dinner. My sister and husband from the mainland. We all love Chinese food. The food was excellent the staff very friendly. The following week 2 of us revisited for lunch again the food was excellent. We will definitely return.

We ordered our food told it would rake 5-10 minutes. £33 meal definitely was not worth it. The sweet and sour chicken was spot on. The two different orders of rice I ordered were blah, no flavor nothing, no cutlery, and they were dried out and weren't soft and chewy. The rice tasted like it just came out of the microwave. Not impressed!

Good and mouth watering food. Impressive staff. Well done

Catered for group of 12, food came quick which allowed us to make ferry in time.

Very good Chinese food made to perfection by people who definitely know what they're doing, the Chinese! I 100% recommend this Chinese restaurant, I had takeaway from here 3 times in one week while on holiday, but you can eat inside their very nice restaurant if you prefer, I will definitely be eating from here again in the future, it's something to look forward to!

Friendly staff and caters well for vegans. Lovely meal out.

Well-marked vegan options, friendly staff, quick service

Delish and tasty Food! Big servings! Loved their fried rice, sweet and sour, noodles. Very friendly staff! We’ll definitely come back. Worth the price! Visited Isle of wight last year and this week (July 2022) my family and I ate here 3x and we love it!!

Nice food, good prices and very friendly staff 🙂

We were recommended to try hke. Went in on a busy Saturday evening and managed to get last table for two. We were served very quickly, food piping hot, very tasty. All cooked perfectly. Best chinese we have had in a long time.

Amazing food, presented well and with fantastic staff!

Food was just about eatable it was dryer than Gandhi's flip flop. A minimal amount of sauce just not a great meal would recommend the chef add some flavor to his dishes and some soy and not rely on msg.

Clean, friendly service and nice food. Very good value.

Great food, very clean and lovely service.. also very good value.. Definitely recommended while you are around Ryde

Does the job. There are better but opening times mrsns this one's best. X

i’ve eaten here twice now the first time was okay but a bit overpriced for what we got. i spent £5.80 on prawn toast definitely not worth the price for how much was there. chop suey - very bland we didn’t even eat it. satay chicken - lovely good sized bits of chicken sweet and sour chicken - was very nice sweet and sour pork- was however not so nice pretty bland compared to the chicken one. beef curry - i would eat this again was lovely. bog standard rice nothing special overall not wouldn’t eat from here again some nice dishes but definitely lacking flavour in others.

This is both a takeaway and dine-in chinese. Whilst it doesnt have the ambience of a good restaurant, it's rather like a cafe with hard chairs, the food was very good indeed. We dined in and Everything is cooked to order, so arrived hot and...

Was so excited to see they offered lots of vegan options. It was a delicious. Gutted I live the other side of the water or I'd visit more often!

We ordered from this takeaway this evening and spent close to £100 on an order. I asked if they could throw in a free bag of prawn crackers and was told yes as it was a big order. We didn't receive the prawn crackers. When we called to ask where they were they told us as we didn't pay for them we don't get them (they kept putting the phone down on us saying the signal wasn't very good) glad our local Chinese back home are alot more gracious. Noodles were dry. Chicken was overcooked and the sauces sent were incorrect. Wouldn't recommend.

Excellent from entering to leaving, made you most welcome

We can wholeheartedly recommend this restaurant. The food was piping hot the plate has been warmed first. The service was excellent and the food extremely tasty

Quick street food lots of meat and chilly. Was exactly as expected

Wonderful food, great service and the staff was extremely friendly.
