After reading this board, I came across this post.. My opinion of this place is this..
BAD!
Food is distasteful, service is so-so, smell is pungent! Maybe it was the table next to us that smelled bad, or maybe its the whole restaurant, the smell of this place was unbearable. Again, just my experience so people can take for what its worth.

Hong Kong Food Street is a terrific restaurant. We dine there regularly and have always found the food and service to be very good. Their specialty is Hong Kong style seafood (try the stir fried garoupa fish or any of the crab dishes) but they also do a great job on duck and roast pork. Also, their sizzling beef pepper steak is the best I've had anywhere. Their menu is extensive and, so far, we've been pleased with everything we've tried. I travel to Hong Kong often and dining here makes me feel like I'm having dinner in Causeway Bay. HKFS is probably the most authentic Hong Kong style restaurant in Houston. I guess differences in taste buds really make a difference . I still dislike their food. Poor at best.

Haha, nice review.. boy this place is that bad. I kind of can tell a place by the name. You see, a name should be attracting, unique, good sounding.. So lets take Hong Kong Food Street for example: Hong Kong-- ok it is a city, very popular travel destination.. Food Street-- What is this? food on the street? So what we have is a good beginning and a bad ending. So what this restaurant tells me is that good going in, bad coming out. Just like the person above who posted that review.

First time eating here this past weekend. First impression: typical Chinese restaurant, good layout, pretty clean.
Food: The food was not too bad. Price is a bit expensive for the area.
Service: I think the waiters here have a hard time understanding English. No offense to them, but I wish I can communicate more with them so they know what I was talking about.

If it aint 2.99 + tax in Chinatown, it is definitely overpriced ;D Thanks to my favorite restaurant Hunan Plus!

No such thing as 2.99 + tax anymore.. Prices have gone up to 3.99 + tax now. Still cheap IMHO.

Prices: Yes, this is more expensive than some of the best deals (Chinese Cafe, Lucky Pot) in Houston, but you're not getting roast duck, lobster, etc. Quality/"authenticity": If you order Americanized Chinese food, then that's what you'll get! Order the specials pictured on the wall. If you're conservative, at least try the wonton noodle soup and/or a dish with roast pork. And although authenticity is somewhat based on one's individual experience, many Chinese agree that this place serves some of the best HK-style food in Houston. If you want to learn more, browse... www.b4-u-eat.com/houston/restaurants/reviews/rsv2795.aspService: It can be impatient, unfriendly, but that's fairly typical for Hong Kong restaurants. Get used to it if you want the best (especially Cantonese) food. Otherwise, stick to Kim Son, P. F. Chang's, places in the Village, or even Panda Express. Name: The best and most authentic food is often found in places with the silliest-sounding or cryptic names, especially in the case of Asian restaurants, where translation is sometimes not well-thought-out. Maybe the name is supposed to evoke street vendors in Hong Kong.

I don't like this place. But that is just my personal dislike of the way they make their dishes.
