“Super tasty chicken, the food was really good and the calamari excellent. Really good everything...”
“What a lovely little gem! Portions are huge, we ordered two entries and an app and brought a ton home for leftovers. Staff was friendly, helpful. Service was FAST. Would definitely go back!”
“Best authentic Filipino restaurant. Good food! Fast service nice ambiance”
“I had the Chicken Inasal and the crispy sisig. Both were incredible. My favorite was the chicken—it was juicy and tender and the rice was perfect.”
“Happy to visit a thriving Filipino restaurant. Food portions good and very tasty dishes”
“Grew up near Cubao, QC where they had a Hong Ning restaurant. They eventually left the area and heard they (or the family) moved to the NW Chicago suburbs. While not quite the same, the food here is quite decent. The pork bbq is very much Filipino style, so highly recommend that. The fresh lumpia when available is a must order. Service was quick and friendly. And we were always able to find a table available immediately. Ample parking.”
“AMAZING! Here's how I judge a restaurant if the natives are half of the occupants of said restaurant, the food is ALWAYS good. You realize that they're not going to come waste their money on just average food! Our friend is Filipino and recommended this restaurant.”
“Hong Ning Filipino Restaurant offers some authentic Filipino dishes and desserts. All of their dishes are served à la carte and family-style, big portions meant for sharing. Make sure to get plenty of white rice or garlic fried (sinagag) to enjoy the plenty sauces and flavors. Highlights were the KareKare (stewed beef), Dinaguan (chocolate pork) and Pancit palabok (shrimp with a spaghetti like rice noodle). For me, the two appetizers were hit or miss, Fried Bangus and Sisig, needed some sawsawan (vinegar dipping sauce) to help bring it together. All that aside Hong Ning impressed me with great food, a warm environment and friendly service. Salamat po, kitakits!”
“One of the best things about Carol Stream. Good service and restaurant location. Very tasty halo-halo, I also recommend the lumpia.”
