“Mala Fish Slices Rice Noodles: Very generous portions with the perfect amount of spiciness, lots of vegetables & noodles and the soft fish fillets paired perfectly with the broth.The Taiwanese fried chicken was also a 10/10! They somehow fried the chicken flawlessly with the appropriate amount of crunchiness and seasoning. It tasted good alone and with the sauce (I think it was sweet chili?) provided as well. I wish I had a photo of it, but I stomach got to it before my camera.“
“From my 9 year old: This is the best place in the city, EVER. I love it so much, the food is so good and the people are so nice. It has a perfect name complimented by the water feature in the lobby. I would rate it one thousand million stars if I could. The staff is genuine and warm, just the best. I wish there were more places like this.“

“Ordered takeout on a Monday night (kudos for being open on Mondays! its so hard to find Monday restaurants!) - the portion sizes were fair for the price. My son enjoyed the yaki udon and I had the maki combo 2. I also have several food allergies and there was no issue accommodating allergen requests. We look forward to ordering again!“
“This is one of the best Chinese restaurants in Albany. Each dish that I’ve tried has been delicious. We go here regularly when our family is in town because they always request to eat here. Their offerings are authentic flavored to perfection!“
“Beautiful restaurant with great food amazing atmosphere and great service . Our server was very knowledgeable and friendly, the manager was really nice too . we highly recommend P.F. Chang’s. Great place for family and friends or if you just wanna take a quick bite.“
“I’m a truck driver passing through Albany NY. Stopped at this place and ordered Lo Mein with Chicken and Beef. The food turned out amazing. The best lo mein I have ever had. On top of that, their service was really great. Nice people. Definitely recommend this “
“This has been my go-to Chinese takeout place for a very long time, and they have never once let me down. They have never gotten an order wrong or cooked something poorly. The food is always perfect and tasty, and the person behind the counter is super nice.“
“I usually order from Chinese sit down restaurants because I've had bad experiences with some Chinese take out spots. But this place is the expectation!I was blown away by the general saus chicken, crab rangoons, and boneless spare ribs. Everything was super fresh and quality. The ideal Chinese take out spot. The classic style, at a good price, with more quality then other places. I don't even mind driving out of town for it.Kid-friendliness: YesParking: Plaza parking on the side“
“I was visiting relatives and they ordered takeout from here. Holy moly it was delicious! General Tso's chicken was perfect and plentiful with a kick. The shrimp rolls were crispy and fresh. There was a shrimp dish with veggies and sauce. It was piping hot with brown sauce. The shrimp were a nice meaty size. So good! I didn't try the fried rice or the beef dish they got but it looked really good, fresh ingredients, huge portions. I hope they deliver to me or I will have to make a trip!!“
“They don’t have a lot of things that are on their menu. Also, the say they deliver on their website but they don’t. Other than that, wonderful sweet and sour chicken and other stuff.Parking: Find the right place at the right time if you're lucky.“
“Hong Kong Bakery & Bistro is a gem! The staff were so friendly and helpful, creating a genuinely welcoming atmosphere. The restaurant was clean and had a relaxing vibe, perfect for enjoying a delicious meal. Speaking of the food – it was terrific! Authentic flavors, beautifully presented, and the portions were generous. I left feeling satisfied and happy. If you're looking for amazing Chinese food and excellent customer service, this is the place to go!“
“Since i moved back to NY they've been my go-to for chinese food :) this restaurant is family owned and operated. Very clean establishment, and fast! I've been going to them for 2-3 years now, and its the only place ill goto for chinese food :)“
“It's takeout Chinese, nothing fancy, but the egg rolls are always crispy and I am impressed that they seem to use fresh vegetables in their dishes. I got the cashew shrimp recently and it was loaded with fresh chopped zucchini and carrots, versus other places where it's just a handful of celery and pre-frozen diced carrots.“
“My favorite place to order take out when I’m feeling lazy. Food is always piping hot and well seasoned. Super affordable too. Best Chinese take out in the capital district hands down!!! My only suggestion is that the crab rangoons could use a little more filling.“
“I hardly ever feel the need to review, but i loved coming here today, i was dying for some chicken curry and boy did i get just what i needed from here, by far the best chicken curry i could have asked for. And the owner was awesome the store was extremely clean which is amazing because its been there since i was a little “
“Amazing authentic Chinese food with great efficient service with a smile. This is one of our favorite spots. Their soup dumplings and pork buns are great but also try their black sesame ice cream for dessert!Parking: Huge parking lot with easy access“
“This Chinese Northern Eastern style restaurant is generally rated 4.5 stars, and being in Albany bumps it up to 5 stars.Must-try: five-color Chinese salad (五彩大拉皮)Recommendation: fried eggplant with minced pork (肉沫茄子) and the stir-fried taro with sugar coat (翻沙芋头).Food: I've visited twice and tried the five-color Chinese salad, fried eggplant with minced pork, stir-fried taro with sugar coat, stewed baby chicken with Chinese mushrooms (小鸡炖蘑菇), and stewed pork bones with bean sauce (酱大骨). The five color salad is a delightful mix of mung bean noodles, vegetables, and a standout sauce. The "mino" (a traditional Chinese raincoat makes out of straw) eggplant dish showcases the chef's skill, with the eggplant sliced thinly and connected. The sugar-coated taro was surprisingly good, tastier than the candied version. While the stewed pork bones with bean sauce and stewed baby chicken were decent, the pork bones are not leg bones and the chicken portion in the soup was small.Note: They offer a discount for cash payments.Parking: free parking in the plaza parking lot.“
“This is a takeout place that has quick service and reasonable prices. I love that they go easy on the oil and dont skimp on the meat. I give it 5 stars because it is exactly what it is supposed to be.Vegetarian options: They offer many vegetarian options.Parking: In a plaza.“
“This is where my partner and I went on our first date and where we just went for Valentine's Day. It is a great place with excellent food and service. And very reasonably priced. We will keep coming back to celebrate special occasions.The rose was a nice touch.“
“Love my delivery, it's quick and hot. This is my favorite take out delivery. I usually order the sesame chicken combo, and it's decently crispy, also love the general favored apps like fried wontons, dumplings, and crab rangoons.I've had several different dishes and all are as expected, I have never ever been disappointed!“
“I've been coming to them for years! Food is always delicious and crispy. They look like a typical hole in the wall. But they're truly a gem. As it stands they will have our business indefinitely.Kid-friendliness: They're a family run business with their kids helping when they can. They're pleasant people who are very sweet with children who are in their shop.“
“This place is great, best Chinese takeout in the area, probably the cap region. Its pricier, but the quality is there, you can taste the difference. Their food is real, not fakey msg frozen tasting. There is nothing to compare it to in the area. Everyone please try it out, I want it to last! Try the chicken anything, and you will see/taste the difference, its real sliced chicken, like you would make yourself!“
“It's hard to find good Chinese food. And I have only ever posted 1 review. This is by far, the best Chinese food I have had. I had the chicken and broccoli, my husband got the pork lo mien. They were both so flavorful, quality and quantity were awesome. I would recommend this place for take out. There was no a/c, so it was hot inside. They definitely have the Best Cook.“
“New to Albany and wanted a Chinese soup and dinner. After a few reviews picked on Peral of the Orient hot and sour soup and Szechuan chicken were to the point. Slightly different seasoning but none the less both the hot soup and the chicken hit home. May have got our go to Chinese in Albany.“
“Ken has a great place. Don't judge a book by its cover, the exterior of the place is nothing fancy, but the food and service are wonderful. My 14 year old daughter loves sushi, I brought her here for a lunch date and she was very happy! That's all the review I need! Definitely will be back regularly.“
“Vegetarian diet food I just had the absolute best food that Ive had since the pandemic started. Delicious! Negatives first...I am a vegetarian and dont like to eat much fatty food. So, maybe, if you're the same, but stricter , you might not want to cross those lines. They probably use the same oil to cook meat as the items I got, and it's fried food, so it's got fat. I'm not sure. I didn't ask. In spite of that, saying it again, I just had the absolute best food that Ive had since the pandemic started. Delicious! I got vegetable chow maifun, but with tofu instead of the other options, steamed vegetable dumplings, and a vegetable egg roll. The chow mai fun isn't on the menu with tofu, but they substituted the one with shrimp. I got this yesterday. I still have the egg roll. It was a lot of food! Really good food. And I think I might indulge a lot more often now. I got delivery. It was quick, and it's a lot less expensive than any other online deliveries I've gotten. Give it a try. They have other steamed vegetarian options, too.“
“My husband and I went here for a date. The service was excellent. The servers are so friendly and kind. We learned some Chinese words. The food was good. I am gluten free and they made me rice noodles with vegetables and gf soy sauce. My husband enjoyed his food and ate every last drop. Definitely go and support them wonderful people!“
