The New Hong Kong in Cornwall, Isles of Scilly

Went late and it was quiet in the winter but good food and friends made a great night.

Had a lovely experience here. Food was lovely, much better than I expected as I had heard some negative things. However it was quite a small space for dining and if packed to capacity, would struggle to get round to actually get your food. (It did fill up a bit from when my photos were taken, as we got there not long after opening). Also, its was absolutely freezing in there this evening! The “Coke” was definitely not branded, so pretty expensive for what it was, and didn’t taste the best. But in terms of food - although not the biggest variety it was tasty. I was very happy with the quality of food, and all food available was stuff I enjoy. The lady serving us was lovely and I would definitely return, just perhaps in a warmer month.

The buffet is awful. The food tasted terrible. The cleanliness of the serving station was atrocious. The soft drinks were served warm, the Diet Coke tasted like a cheap supermarket own brand. The table wobbled when eating and the chairs had stains on them. Do yourself a favour, do not eat here,

The food was delicious and the service was very prompt and the management team and staff are very friendly and polite…

We love going here with the whole family, i.e. three families)))

We visit penzance every year, and we always make a point of visiting our favourite Chinese buffet. The food is amazing, the service and staff are amazing and the price is excellent value.

We ordered a take away and collected on time. Ten minutes later opened the food. It was almost cold, it seem to have been reheated rendering it greasy and inedible. We threw it away after a few mouthfuls. So NHK you knowingly served local customers food not fit to eat. Now we are not your customers.

Excellent food and a relaxed casual dining experienced. The lemon/orange chicken is my favourite, which is a lightly battered chicken breast in a sweet sauce. Since relocating recently, this has become my young daughter’s favourite restaurant for dinner in the evening and we always bring visiting family and friends here, family and friends whom have been impressed with how tasty the food is. Initially, I had thought the place could do with redecorating, but if it keeps the cost down for the customers, then it is perfectly fine.

Pretty average selection of food on the buffet, starter's all good, mains not so special. Wouldn't go again, but it may be to your liking.

Brilliant all you can eat buffet was delicious

Not the prettiest restuarant, and atmosphere is a bit dull, but the food is delicious! I was surprised how good it was!

In general, a lot of people liked it. They were on Saturday evening. Delicious desserts!

Very good food, attentive service. If a bit expensive! Nice surroundings. If your hungry, good value. Ribs to die for?

A lovely "all you can eat" Chinese restaurant. Absolutely delicious food.

First visit, all you can eat buffet. Really good choices for starters, main meals and deserts. All you can eat and the possibility to sample cuisine you've not tried before. Small carpark opposite down a side street. So easy to get too. However is on first floor. So not suitable for those with mobility issues. Highly recommend this restaurant.

My families came down from Birmingham and eat here . They like it so much. Nice food . We sit down behind people ( other customers) that they are so rude. They sit on big table, I think they are birthday party. In the beginning I can hear they complained the children’s price, then one lady complained plates.when they come, it looks like maket. We are 8 people , all think it’s good here. To be honest, the post is on the wall, u can see the price by yourself, the staff let them know before they pay. The staff always smile when they complain and sort it out. Hopefully we won’t see them again when we are there. I highly recommend it.

Awful. Cost is done off of height not age. Food is awful and there was a MAGGOT on what are supposed to be CLEAN plates, after taking them all out to washed they proceeded to give us 'fresh' plates which had dust all over and hanging off them. Honestly a waste of money and would not recommend again.

We went this evening for my grandsons 16 th birthday all our children were charged as adults they were taller than 140cm they are 9 years old we are a 21 strong family so money would be spent 2 couldn't eat as maggots were found on the plates we are really sad as getting out is expensive but it was a special occasion ruined

I go for the "all you can eat" buffet with my wife. Great selection, well cooked and a nice variety. I like this restaurant, I believe it's the oldest Chinese in Penzance and I've been going there years.

Great food at a good price, no hanging around waiting to be served. If you're on a night out and want to have time and money for a pub crawl after then this is the place to go

we have takeaway from here every sunday evening the food is so tasty & freshly cooked i highly recommend them. we had lemon chicken noodles & barbecue spare ribs

The restaurant was very good: The foods were delicious, the waitresses were enthusiastic, but the tap in the toilet might be hard to use.

Your normal buffet. Not many selections. Did not manage to get any desserts as there were non left although it's was only 3 tables in. Have had better Chinese buffet

Ordered for delivery at 8:30pm, was told it would arrive between 9:15-10pm at 9:55pm I called to see if it was on its way, English guy bluntly said "you was told between 9:15-10pm"... it didn't arrive until 10:30pm! 2 hour wait from Penzance to Gulval. Won't be ordering from here again.

Very good. Enjoyed our visit which was one of many. Food is always a delight and staff are attentive. Needs a little makeover now to keep things looking clean eg bathrooms

Absolute lovely place to go to, all you can eat, lovely polite staff very friendly 😀

Place was way too hot on entry, the carpet is minging and sticky There is no concept of food hygiene or safety as staff just put fresh food on top of the dried up food that has obviously been sitting a while, cross contamination also an issue other diners using utensils from one dish to another the dish labels have also seen better days The dessert fridge appears to be not functioning properly as the cakes were mushy

food was good but the waitress with all the piercings… where do I start, firstly she was very blunt and seemed to only care about getting the job done and disregarded the customers satisfaction, she carried the most horrible disgusting stench of BO to the point I felt ill. please fire her or induce a deodorant code.

Fantastic birthday meal for our daughter at The New Hong Kong buffet.

still the favourite Chinese in penzance, great food at good prices and al you can eat on a sunday, quick collection ordering. delivery can take a little while but no wonder with its popularity

2nd time we have been here for the buffet. Great food, plenty of choice's to go at. Will deffently go back again & recommend.

Ordered a take away from here whilst on holiday, one of the worst Chinese takeaways I have had, ordered bbq ribs and they came with what was %100 a jar of branston pickle emptied on to them Ordered special chow Maine and was sent some sort of rice dish Salt and chilli Chips where dry and tasteless Please avoid

Excellent food and excellent service! The waitress was so welcoming and accommodating. My daughter requested a few alternatives (noodles no sprouts ) as not on the buffet and they were accommodating! The only negative was the Diet Coke as it was tasteless and flat!

Lovely food and fabulous staff! The food was gorgeous and the staff were incredibly friendly. Thank you for your service!

Very disappointed 😞 took my daughter for her 21st birthday. When we arrived the waitress was rude asked us if we booked in a badly manner. When I said we booked she said that table in corner,she was so miserable atmosphere was horrible the gril who served us if looks could kill. Food was cold,my daughter had a glass of coke was very flat and tasted watered dw,I had a rum and coke asked for a double only got single and half a glass. The customer service could do with alot of work. Won't be going back.☹️

Tonight, I had the pleasure of dining at the New Hong Kong restaurant in the company of three gentlemen who possess both autistic and learning disabilities, alongside my two colleagues. I am delighted to attribute my five-star rating to the exceptional service rendered by our waitress, Sarah. Her unwavering dedication and genuine care for our group truly exceeded all expectations, fostering an atmosphere filled with laughter, delectable cuisine, and impeccable service. If it were possible, we would gladly bestow six stars upon Sarah for her outstanding performance. Once again, I extend my heartfelt gratitude. With warmest regards.

We went in for a bite to eat and within 45 minutes of leaving I had the worst tummy upset ever which lasted for 2 days. Needless to say I won’t be returning.

Hi I ordered 2x special chow mein meals ,it was the worst chow mein I have ever tasted ,I cc old not eat it the ham that was in it must have come out of a tin ,I shall not order anything from here again ,you should go to other chineese takaway and see how they make it ,I give your special chow mein 2 out 10

Was made to pay up front. Thought it was strange but when we checked over the bill for 2 adults and 3 children they had charged for 5 adults. When we questioned the staff they pointed at a sign implying if your child is over a certain height they charge them as an adult. The youngest here was 8 and was miles taller than the ridiculous height limit they had set! Wouldn’t recommend unless you have babies or midget children!

Child is not stipulated by age , it is by height!! What a joke, what if you got a tall ten year old?? You have to pay adult price !

We came for dinner this evening for the first time, the all you can eat buffet. Such good value at £15.95 a head, all the food was beautiful, such a lovely variety and all piping hot! My children don't eat alot of Chinese food, the lady serving us who I assume is the owner, was so good with them and was happy to answer all their questions! She gave them the confidence to try new things! Such a welcoming atmosphere, you'll be our first choice when we next go out for dinner, thank you so much!

Are you vegetarian? Well, don't eat here - they put random meat in your food. All my orders were messed up - with now apologies. Avoid at all costs - go to May's or Sea Palace instead.

What an absolute gorgeous find. In this day and age with everything getting so expensive we stumbled on this little gem right up the top of market jew Street in Penzance. An all you can eat Chinese buffet which was amazing value at £15.95 each. Lovely friendly staff and all the dishes were delicious. Soup to start and then evert type of chicken, pork, beef dish you could want! A nice selection of fresh fruit and cake for desert should you have any space left. We will always make a trip here when we visit Cornwall again and recommend it to friends and family. Thank you from the couple from Cardiff !

Wenn du etwas authentisches suchst, ein Lokal , dass wirkliche Menschen aufsuchen, dann komme hier her! Wir hatten einen erfrischenden Abend, ohne verstellte Cornwall-Tschikaria.

Very good and very reasonably priced

I asked for a vegetarian Tom Yum Soup and a vegetarian Hot and Sour Soup - but both came with meat / fish in the dishes. When I brought the issue up up, I was told that it was my fault as all dishes come with meat unless the chef is informed - yet I did ask for the order to have no meat? I've not eaten meat for 30 years so swallowing a prawn wasn't very welcome. Anyway, no apologies or recompense so be careful what you ask for...

Food ok. We ordered drinks which arrived and then helped ourselves to buffet. Just after we had started eating the waitress arrived informing us that we had to pay our bill. Apparently they have had people leaving without paying. I can't recall ever going to any restaurant where I have had to pay the bill before finishing my meal. If this was the policy we should have been informed when we booked the table, which would have resulted in me not booking.

Food was of good quality lots of dishes all freshly cooked . A really nice waitress reasonably priced . A great dining experience 5 star rating from me .

Very poor service, ordered before and this isn’t the first time they have messed our order up. Should always put a receipt within every order. Got a takeaway tonight and they messed our order up 3 times and making us pay for the missing items and delivery. Don’t get me wrong it isn’t the delivery drivers fault as they are always polite when delivering.

not normally keen of buffet. but glad we did . food quality was good. service OK. But you pay before you eats. no problems . usually Chinese choice of buffet

Like a lot of all you can eats its all about quantity and not quality. But what really put me off was seeing the state of the cloth one of them used to 'clean' the tables! We won't return.

The buffet was OK. But I think it was disgusting how the waitress came over to our table of 12 people while we was eating and asked us to pay the bill .we was all shocked at this .in my experience you do not ask for the bill to be paid right in the middle of a meal .this has put us off going again .I think it is rude and terrible. Disgusting. Also we wanted more drinks had to pay for them separately. Instead of adding them to the bill .like I said .it was very very rude .definitely won't be going there in a hurry again .what made it worse .is that we are locals .

We were a group of adults and children out for a combined birthday all you can eat buffet. The waitress insisted that one of the children in the group stands against a hight chart as they charge by hight not age and we had to pay for the meal and drinks in advance so nobody ordered a second drink. It did not feel like a pleasant experience

last friday 17th june my husband &i celebrated our 33rd wedding anniversary so as i now live in a nursing home & stuck in bed we ordered the meal for two it arrived on top steaming hot & was really delicious. we will definitely do...

A Great Buffet . The food was fresh full of flavour and there was a good variety of dishes to choose from . The service was good . A great dining experience which I could not fault . Highly Recommended.

Friday night after a lovely day at the beach, fancied a Chinese so picked here. I’m glad I did I was greeted by 2 friendly waitresses who showed me to my table, the restaurant wasn’t overly busy but a steady flow of customers. The food was buffet style but they also do take away. It was cooked fresh and was hot and of good quality I would definitely recommend in Penzance town centre

Really good choice of food and nicely cooked and pleasant friendly staff very well recommended

5 adults in our party for the "buffet" evening meal... After climbing the stairs to the restaurant we were hit with a blaze of heat! It was unbearable hot in the restaurant despite having ceiling fans... None of which were turned on! Large selection of...

Had a takeaway from here when we visited Penzance early September. Must say one of the nicest takeaways we've had. Singapore Chow Mien was amazing as was the Chicken Curry, Mixed Veg and Chicken Fried Rice. If your visiting the area it's worth a visit

The buffet offers an impressive range of dishes - soups, seafood, chicken, duck, meats, rice, noodles, and a variety of vegetarian options. Desserts are tasty too - different flavours of ice cream, choice of gateaux, melon and other fruits. Service is swift, responsive and unobtrusive.

We are very good customers and always order on a weekly basis due to working late some days in stressful jobs. Usually they are so friendly and sometimes allow us to pay over the phone. Today the lady on the phone was rude and actually...

Absolutely abysmal service and food - definitely not worth the money and makes you feel sick after eating

Stopped in for some food. Went for the set menu for 2 wasn’t disappointed, good mix of starters and mains all well cooked and presented. Nearly forget the banana fritters, we’ll worth a visit.

Good food but a 10 years old and a 11 year old kid pay as adult on the buffet is not fair.

My family and friends frequent this establishment on a regular basis and order take aways now and then as we prefer to get together in a nice warm environment. My friends and I prefer the option of taking advantage of the all you can eat...

Woow . We give it a chance just by feeling the good smell while passing by . Starting at 17.00 with so many choices. All you can eat for just £15 . We couldn’t ask for anything better than than . Food was at very good quality level and the choices were impressive! Strongly recommend.

Good selection of food. £15 adult, £9 child. Plenty to chose from, desserts too. Replenished regularly. I asked the girl if it was Coca Cola? She lie and said yes. They charged over £3 for a pint of V-cola. They should half this price and...

old and smelly place not worth 14.95 per adult

I only have takeaways and from here and I enjoy their chicken curry and rice.

Staff are always lovely and helpful. Great food for a reasonable price. My favourites are the Bang Bang chicken starter, the Salt Chilli squid and the King Prawn Chow Mein. The Chow Mein has a variety of ingredients and isn't just bean sprouts and noodle....

Ordered a take away tonight for family. Delivered over an hour later with greasy over cooked food that had obviously been fried in dirty old oil. Disgusting waste of money. Never again. Avoid

Had takeaway several times from here and given them more than one chance I have had wrong order greasy food and inconsistent food how the same dish can be so different inedible is beyond me. I won't be going here again. I am local and...

Good buffet although all served at the moment under current restrictions.

I really enjoyed the first visit so much I returned. I stayed with the menue on my first recent visit. The second time from the all you can eat buffet which at £13 was a great deal - even without taking the £10 government help....

Have walked past this place hundreds of times but never been in. The buffet was pretty good and the staff were friendly and helpful.

Please don’t let the tired look of this place put you off. It’s exceptional value and the food is very good quality. You won’t get a 3 course (5 in my case) meal with a drink for under £20 each anywhere else. Good variety of...

Food was great but had a drink of coke and it was cheap coke and it tasted funny and every one in the restaurant conpland then thay fill them bl up with bottal coke restaurantcomplained

highly recommend New Hong Kong. The food is amazing, always hot and plenty. Prices for drinks is reasonable. The staff are brilliant and friendly. Always made to feel welcome. Tried another Chinese buffet close by recently, big mistake, never again.

We visited this wonderful Chinese restaurant on our weeks stay in Mousehole. I can highly recommend the all you can eat buffet! It is great value for money. Fantastic hot flavourful food with lots to choose from. The best all you can eat buffet I’ve...

First visit - very impressed! We had the buffet, which had a vast array of food. I especially recommend the lemon chicken and the Singapore chow mein. The staff were really attentive and really nice. Definitely recommend and will be back.

Lots to choose from and all very tasty. The staff were really chatty and friendly and the table service for drinks was really nice as you don’t normally get that in an all you can eat.

Had family down on holiday, wanted an all you can eat. Friendly welcome, good choice of food. Really enjoyed it.

Came here for the all you can eat was very well priced, food was nice and of good quality, staff also nice and friendly, really nice atmosphere would come again.

The food was yummy, however very greasy, the decor needs updating but the staff where very chatty and lovely !

lovely buffet and great selection of chinese food and lovely desserts. Would recommend this for a quick meal out with no waiting for service

Prima eten voor een prima prijs. Keurig buffetje met voldoende keuze. Vers gemaakt en met regelmaat vult men bij of vervangt men de beschikbare etenswaren. Kortom, aanrader voor niet al te kieskeurige eters die gewoon lekker willen eten voor een leuke prijs. De cola is helaas een mix met spuitwater en dat was niet te hachelen. Flesje of blikje met logo is dan gewoon beter. Watertje op tafel was kosteloos en dat is ook een pluspunt.

Always a good meal with great service

Very good food, great price, lovely staff... highly recommend.

Always good food when ever we go. Excellent value for money. All you can eat and such a variety Staff lovely and pleasant and place is always clean

Excellent food and service. Thanks.

really good value well presented,staff are great.it will be hard to find better value.usually busy and you will need to book for your party.sunday is only day open for lunch.

Great place for a meal, the choice on food is great. Fresh food always being added to the eat all you can. Something for everyone, well worth a visit. Great staff nothing to much trouble..

The New Honk Kong restaurant is always a great experience. My boyfriend and I regularly visit and its really lovely food with great friendly service. There's always plenty of variety of food to suit all tastes and there's always plenty of it. Can't wait for our return visit. Thanks guys.

The New Hong Kong Chinese Resturant is our favourite Chinese evening out. The staff are good as gold & the food is excellent value for money. We always go for the buffet as you can pick & mix a bit of everything that you fancy with the only restriction being finish your plate full before having more. This stops wastage & keeps the price down which makes if affordable for frequent visits.

Bring your best appetite to the all you can eat buffet. Lovely food in authentic surroundings.
