Car Wash Diner - Rother

I frequently visit this restaurant with my husband whenever we are in the area. My go-to order is the sweet and sour chicken with fried rice, while he prefers the ma po tofu with fried rice. The bubble tea is also delicious. Unfortunately, the last time we tried to visit, the restaurant was closed. I hope it's just for renovations and not permanently closed.

We decided to try out HK Diner since none of us had been there before. Despite being in Chinatown, our expectations were low, but we were pleasantly surprised by both the delicious food and excellent service. We ordered seabass cooked Chinese style, crab, mapo tofu, and rice. This was my first time trying mapo tofu, and it did not disappoint. The tofu was soft and the sauce was well-flavored. The sight of the fish with its head still attached was a bit unsettling, but the meat was delicious. The crab was especially amazing, with a sweet and sour sauce with a hint of chili that paired perfectly with the rice. I would definitely recommend trying the crab and rice together. Overall, a great dining experience at HK Diner.

This restaurant is a fantastic spot to meet up after a night out in Leicester Square. It stays open until 4 or 5am and their crunchy noodles are absolutely delicious. You might have to wait for a table, but it's definitely worth it. The duck with pancakes is also amazing, I've never had any complaints.

The hong kong style military is terrible, the tee is not strong enough, and it tasted like water with milk and sugar. please do not order hong kong stylized militia here, they will regret, the bark brisket nudel is better than another cha chan tan wong kee, the bark brisket is soft and tender, but a little salty, and the nudel is cheerier than wong kee’s (but both rinderbrisket and nudel can be even better) the

HK Diner is a popular canteen in China Town, open till late serving simple Cantonese fast food Dishes such as baked pork chop rice and boat congee are some of the most loved comfort Cantonese items so you can always see the place is packed with Chinese students thanks to its cheap price. But be aware the service is pretty awful like most other venues in China Town, I would suggest the baked pork chop with spicy pepper as the robust savoury aroma is just so inviting with just a hint of smoky element from the baking process.
