" After hearing about this restaurant from several friends, I decided to try it out for myself. I ordered the fried rice and the kung pao chicken, and honestly, I was not disappointed. The flavors melted in my mouth! The service was extremely prompt, and I appreciate how each member of the staff interacts with customers. Tragically, it’s in a location that might put some off, but trust me, it’s worth stepping out of your comfort zone. The portions were generous enough that I took half of it home. I recommend this place to anyone looking for a taste of authenticity! Can’t wait to come back! " (*Curated Review*)

" I've been a fan of Hao's Kitchen for quite some time! Every visit, I've had great interactions with the staff and great food. Their egg rolls are heavenly, and I could eat them every day! My go-to dish is the orange chicken — the balance of flavors is perfect! The only slight downside is the need for more seating, as it can get crowded during peak hours. However, the wait is worth it, and I have always left satisfied with my meal. " (*Curated Review*)

" Do yourself a favor and try the egg rolls from Hao's; they are out of this world! I grabbed some to go during a busy weekday, and despite the hectic environment, the staff were friendly and courteous. I also got the orange chicken, which was tangy and momentarily transported me back to experiences I've had in Asia. Prices are reasonable, especially since they give you enough food that I had leftovers for lunch the next day. Can't wait to come back next week and try something different. If you're looking for authentic Chinese takeout with great tasting food and friendly vibes, this is where you should be. " (*Curated Review*)

" Despite the less-than-inviting location, I can genuinely say that Hao's Kitchen surprised me with their authentic dishes. I've been to many Chinese places, but this one stood out! The garlic chicken was delicious and perfectly cooked while keeping the essential flavors intact. The staff was welcoming and provided fantastic service even when busy. To top it all off, their portions were great for the price. I will definitely be back to explore more of the menu. " (*Curated Review*)

" This was my first visit to Hao's Kitchen, and I must say, I was thoroughly impressed. I tried the Combo C3, and it was outstanding! The flavors were spot on, reminding me of the meals I'd enjoyed while traveling in China. The portion sizes are substantial, and it felt like such a hearty and fulfilling meal. The service was friendly and helpful, and even though it was a busy evening, my food was served promptly. I can see why this place has such rave reviews! I will definitely be back soon and am eager to try more dishes. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had the pleasure of dining at Hao's Kitchen last week and I can't stop raving about it. The food is fantastic! I went for the C5 combo, which was a good choice for sure. The flavors were so rich and satisfying, it felt like real comfort food. And the prices? Very affordable for what you get. The only downside was the slight wait time, but they do prepare everything fresh to order, so I knew it would be worth it. I've been to many Chinese places, but this felt distinct and homely, like a mom-and-pop shop which added to the charm. " (*Curated Review*)

" The ambiance might not be luxurious, but what counts is the quality of food and service, and Hao's Kitchen nails it! I discovered this restaurant on a recommendation from a friend, and boy am I glad I took their advice! The wonton soup is a must-try along with any of their fried rice options. Everything I've had here is packed with flavor! I especially admire how generous the portion sizes are; it’s tough to get it all down. Coming here is not just about eating; it’s more about enjoying a delightful dining experience with cheerful staff and fantastic food. I'd highly recommend it for any lovers of authentic Chinese cuisine! " (*Curated Review*)
