Family-owned. Some of the best Chinese food we've had... anywhere, including San Fransisco and NYC. Some Tai selections, as well. Dishes are all prepared to order in plain sight. Not one of those stale buffets. The family lives above the restaurant. Just steps away. We eat there almost every week. https://hongkongkitchenintogo.com/
