Reviews for Hop Woo BBQ & Seafood Restaurant (Chinatown) in Los Angeles, CA

The food looks better in picture. I saw so many good reviews about how delicious the food was but honestly it had no flavor. The... sweet and sour pork did not taste sweet at all, only sour. The kung pao chicken was the only dish that had some salty flavor.They also seem to add a ?service fee? of $4.51 but they are essentially just forcing a tip on you because nobody really comesaround to ask you how everything is or if you?d like a refill or extra napkins. I had to wave at someone at the front desk justto pay. Read more

It was rather quiet there but the service and food were very good. Have not been to this location in quite a long time and glad... to see that they are keeping up the quality of service and food. Definitely would go back if in the area. The friend who askedto go to a Chinese restaurant was very pleased as well. Read more

This is the quintessential version of what you picture as Chinese takeout that you get here in so many china towns around the... country in the US. It?s definitely not the Cantonese style authenticity, or street food/ dim sum dishes that have carved outtheir own culinary identities. Fresh, crisp veggies that aren?t over cooked with proteins that are generously portioned so youfeel like you get an adequate offering for the price. This is my favorite take out spot, it manages to feel like comfort foodwithout being too heavy if you balance out fresher/steamed fare with anything wok/otherwise fried. Never had the essence ofstale fry oil or rancidity that has plagued a handful of unremarkable takeout spots I?ve endeavored across randomly in citieslarge and small. I must say the sauces and oil content greatly contribute to flavoring without imparting too much richness, andit actually makes for a perfect leftovers reheat since you?re like to have enough moisture to keep things hydrated whilecrisping or heating. Enjoy leftovers in the air fryer or with a quick steam just about as much as fresh fare. Read more

Foods are yummy. Service is good. But All dishes are not come with any white rice. Extra charge $1.8 for one small bowl of... steamed rice. About 8oz. Read more

Go for the bbq . Loved the duck . Open late usually. Cash and card accepted. Service is superb. 5 stars easy .

When i was a teenager, i loved coming here to eat with my parents. Now that im older, i decided to give it another try and bring... my wife to eat here. It was then i realized that this place had gone downhill real bad over time. They at times forget to bringyou some items you order. If you place a phone order, they will charge you for exactly what you asked. However upon inspectingyour order, it will always be clear that they ?forgot? 2-3 items on your order. Another thing that has gone down is the qualityand amount of food youre give. I ordered Mongolian Beef. Upon opening the plate, i began taking out just the meat and ended upwith only 7 small pieces of beef. However the rest of the plate was filled with nothing but onions and all other ingredientsused.
