Hao Wah

This is my nieghborhood Chinese-Asian restaurant. Everytime I go, I recognize half the people and it is a good thing the neighboring stores close earlier for Hao Wah people soon fill the parking lot and even park at the nearby Boston Market.

Usually, I come to take out and despite a huge and diverse menu, my family pciks the combinations. Half the family want white rice - always extra rolls. The food is always hot and ready with enough soy sauce to fill a pool.

At lunch, I can't resist the buffet which is a favorite of local business types. The staff is quick to fill up the containers when they hit the halfway mark. Thus, the food is fresh even if you come late. If you're in the South Tampa area, come here just two blocks south of Publix and one block north of Plant High.

They have ALWAYS had excellent quality food and service whenever I've been there--which is often. I have had Chinese food prepared in each provincial way in many renowned locations across the U.S. and overseas. For the price and location, you will not be disappointed.

Expensive and disgusting! I ordered crab ragoons which obviously hadn't been deep fried THAT DAY. You could tell they microwaved them! They were chewy and tough like they were over microwaved and I ordered garlic shrimp, which disintegrated in my mouth like it was old or VERY poor quality. AND the sauce and vegetables had no taste, so bland. DO NOT ORDER FROM THIS PLACE
