New Hwong Kok

Great BBQ ducks. The staff is friendly, but busy. The deli is always a line, so don't expect restaurant level service, it's all fast food plastic forks and spoons. But it is tasty and very generous portion and filling. Aside from the duck, Lo Mai Gai (Dim Sum Sticky Rice Chicken) had been my favorite .

This is one of those places to get your lunch. However, you’re better off doing a take out rather than dining in because of how bland the atmosphere is. Still boxes at the front. I remember dining here when I was a lot younger. Wasn’t really looking bad there at that time. The food was slimy and oily. I consider it below average tbh. It’s cheap at the bright side. I highly recommend going to other restaurants if you want to get better quality of duck and chicken.

As of July 1st 2025, New Hwong Kok is closed due to health code violations. I guess the health department didn't like the sweat from the chef either ,......... Good roast duck and roast pork. If you can, don't have them chop it up. Instead, bring it home and reheat at 425 degrees. Don't put it into a preheated oven. Start with the oven cold, and once the oven reaches 425, heat for another 5 minutes.

When we want bbq ducks, we come here to get them, but they also have bbq duck wonton noodles that’s inexpensive and quite tasty. We think this has new owner because most of the old workers no longer there or at least we don’t see them. Before COVID we could sit down and have a very nice and inexpensive dinner with the family when we didn’t want to cook. The kids would order bbq duck with rice and I and my wife would order roasted duck noodles soups. My son loves the wonton noodles here since he doesn’t like roasted duck much. Everyone is happy when we sit down here. Now, there’s no dine in, only to go. Last week we decided to order to go, although we don’t believe in to go soups because by the time we got home it’s no longer hot. Anyhow, the BBQ duck and wonton were still tasty, the noodles cooked just right although the soup didn’t taste as good as before but still good. The price went up as everything else but still cheaper than a bowl of pho or any other soup bowls out there.

I like this place. It's a classic Cantonese style BBQ house. They have both dine in or to go options. Within 10 dollars, one gets 1／4 of a roasted duck, enough rice, a little vegetable and hot tea, most of them are delicious. It's more like street food but not a very clean restaurant. Affordable and tasty. A good place for a quick lunch. $10 minimum to use a credit card. When dine in, sometimes there could be no waiter, and one has to wait in the to go line for 5-10 minutes. Regarding flavors, I rate it as one of the best among Cantonese BBQ places in east bay.
