What People Are Saying About Hing Lung Restaurant
The Editor

In Short – Perhaps best known for its congee (rice porridge) selection and tasty Chinese fried donuts, this casual eatery serves heaping portions on the cheap. But for the myriad posters announcing afternoon and evening specials on everything from Peking duck to Chinese herb Jello, the dining room décor is plain and decidedly o-frills. Patrons scour large plastic menus for offerings like BBQ pork wonton noodle soup, Szechuan chicken wings and fresh vegetables in oyster sauce.

Best Deal In Chinatown
by chronozeus
Having so many Chinese restaurants in Chinatown with most being very similar to each other (Cantonese styled cuisine) Hing Lung is the best one in my opinion. They have a huge selection of over 100 dishes all priced at $5 each, and I've probably tried a good 60 or 70 of those, and most are pretty good. They even have the Peking duck for $10, although quantity can be limited sometimes. They always have different deals for drinks and rice meals. Place is a little dirty, but compared to all the other Chinese restaurants in CT, it tastes better and is cheaper with better varieties.
- Pros: price, selection, taste
- Cons: atmosphere, dirty

Avoid at all times
by guanube
Based on various reviews, we visited Hing Lung on a Tuesday evening. It was busy, but not crowded, and not particularly clean. Food bordered on the inedible. If you cannot use chopsticks because of a disability, bring your own fork because they are not readily available. Although prices are inexpensive, be aware prices are higher on the menu given to caucasians. Not a good experience, not a mediocre experience, but definitely a poor experience.
- Pros: None
- Cons: Food was inedible.

Everything a true Chinatown experience should be!
by mealmkr
We used to live in this city and this is one we missed. We went for the happy hour 3-6pm. The conjee and fried donuts were the best we've ever had. We also ordered the potstickers and shrimp dumpling egg noodle soup and they were fantastic as well. The bill came to $9.50 for everything. An incredable Chinatown find at an unbelievable price. They also have the same special for a midnight snack from 10-1am. A definate not to miss.
- Pros: Great food, great price, fast service
