I tried several visits to order different items, giving a fair review. Even sat down with family, had a dinner menu of fried rice, tomato beef chow mein, & a tofu dish. Sorry it was just okay– great for single men/women for quick bite. I’ve taken out roast duck, roast pork, soy sauce chicken & pigs feet. One common denominator — fat & grease on every item. Crispy pork skin & everything very tasty, but I couldn’t justify/handle the fat. Maybe twice a year to satisfy my craving for Chinese BBQ& roasted take-outs. Positive — all servers very accommodating, nice, & will speak English. Had to change review from 3 stars to 1 star. See my image posted today on the Chinese jhoan(Chinese tamale), mainly fat no meat charged $ 2.85, again fatty & greasy. Had enough of same theme.

YOUMUSTCHECKTHISSPOTOUT. I am not exaggerating at all. Their food here is the best Chinese food I have ever had in my life. I have lived in SF around the Richmond District and Sunset neighborhoods all my life and this place exceeds any of the Chinese restaurants I’ve been too. Even San Tung! I mean this is a hole in the wall type of place, but their food is delicious. My friends parents introduced this spot to me after buying us take out from here. And I knew I had to come here for myself. I usually order the roasted pork or duck over rice. My mouth is watering just thinking about the food. You gotta try the food here!

I won’t be visiting them for awhile after what happened yesterday. I called in my order for one small tray of salt and pepper wings and a small tray of sweet n sour pork. I arrived at 12 and they said come back in ½ an hour. So I did. Still no food. I wait and wait but nothing. At 1pm they call me to say my food is ready. They call me 3 times. I know it was Xmas but my family was coming over early for lunch and they couldn’t get their crap together. Don’t tell me something that’s not going to happen. The last call was that they would sell my food. Thanks a lot Cheung Hing. I don’t care how good your duck or anything else is. You made me SO unhappy today.

The best roast duck in the bar area bar none! I’ve been to their other locations but they’re simply not as good or flavorful as this location. The duck meat and skin is so juicy and flavorful that it gives you good memories instantly! The cabbage that comes with it is also good and I normally tend to not eat too many vegetables… The rice could be a bit much but ask for extra duck sauce to make it less dry and have more flavor! Parking could vary depending on how lucky you get a space on Noriega st. It’s quite busy around this section since there’s many Chinese shops and restaurants, and Safeway around there too. The line can get out the door so it’s best to be patient, they get to you eventually as they’re fast at taking care of people in line. It’s small inside the restaurant so it’s usually best to take it to go.

Came with high expectation but was disappointed. While their BBQ pork was good, their roast pork skin was crunchy but the pork itself was bland & disappointing. The roast duck looked really good but tastewise was meh & way too oily. I had better & more fragrant roast duck elsewhere. Their congee/porridge was also bland, but texture & consistency was good. Why 3 star? The lady was friendly & service was fast.

The roasted duck here is so good! I normally get the roasted duck wonton soup and every time I leave satisfied. I think they make /cook the wonton fresh because every time I order it they tell me it’ll take an extra 10 mins or so. The line you see going out the door is usually for takeout. You can go inside and usually get seated instantly, though, there aren’t that many seats inside. They give the complimentary hot tea when you sit there. Overall, this is a great roasted duck Chinese shop ran by a super friendly family(well, they seem like a family).

I came here at the recommendation of my friend who grew up in SF and is in San Diego now. This place has the best roast duck I have ever had. It is very flavorful and orasted correctly and the meat was just good. As far as the barbecue pork, it was more chewy and I didn’t care for it as much. The roast pork was really good too. I go the three barbecue combination over rice. This place is fairly tiny so the actual restaurant portion is literally 3 or 4 tables and that is it. It can get crowded if busy. For a Chinese barbecue place, it is infinitely better than anything San Diego has and reminded me of how much I miss good Chinese food. It is one of those comfort food type places.

Let’s call this simply a review of food. Because ITSSOGOOD! My boyfriend and I picked up ½ a duck, ½ lb BBQ Pork, ½ lb roasted pork, and a large container of green beans. Green beans were super tasty! Beware, there’s some meat in it if you think its vegetarian friendly. The BBQ PORk was by far my favorite. 2nd green beans, 3rd the duck, and 4th would be the roasted pork. large portions are more worth it than the smaller ones in terms of cost so, just have some leftovers. :) CASHONLY BBQ pork so tasty. I’m eating it over and over again in my head xD you can eat in if you so choose to. They have about 4 – 6 tables. It’s more of a to go place than a sit down as the occupancy is very limited. You will see all the lovely roasted and BBQ meat through the window. There are some other options available like pigs feet, salted fish, chicken, etc. Go and enjoy. It’s some legit Asian food :)

Pretty standard… Nothing too special. Yes, if you’re not Chinese or Canto, the deli meats hanging in the window might be super impressive. But if you’re Chinese or Canto, this is basic haha After running around for the day, came here with the boyfriend because we were both craving duck. The line was out of the door(small store space anyway) and we just got behind everyone. Little did we know, the line is only for to-go orders. If you want to stay and eat(5 or 6 tables of four), just head straight in and grab a seat. We ordered: roast duck with rice($ 7.25 on menu) — peking duck! roast pork with rice($ 7.25 on menu) — pork belly BBQ pork with rice($ 7.25 on menu) — chasu I would say that the meats are on the saltier side. And the menu prices weren’t actually what we were charged. We got charged $ 8.45 for each dish but it wasn’t a huge deal so we didn’t fight it… Definitely will though next time. I would estimate maybe a little less than half a pound for each meat dish. If you’re starving like we were, just order 3 dishes and you don’t have to finish all the rice. But since the meat oils saturate the rice on the bottom, the rice becomes SUPER delicious. Pretty standard compared to a lot of deli places in other Chinatowns like Flushing and Boston.

Roast duck & rice MMMMMM. Recently decided to come with my sister after years of not having it and best. decision. ever. It’s a very small place inside, people usually do take out but we were too hungry to wait so we just sat down! They probably fit about 10 – 15 people in there(very cramped), but the duck is worth it. The plate comes with a side of cabbage and it is perfect. if you’re ever craving some peking duck — come here! Beware: the line gets super long during rush hours so come when they first open to avoid!

As a sunset native, I need to always return to my roots. My family frequents here since they’ve been opened. Hole in the wall. Just a heads up, if you get squeamish, don’t go inside. It’s pretty unappealing but they really do have the best bbq meats! Get the bbq pork or roast duck! You can order by quarter pound, half pound, whole pound. They speak mandarin/cantonese, very limited english. Prices are fare:) HINT: when ordering the meats, ask for a side of sauce/drippings! It’s pretty much the au jus. If you order rice plates, they drizzle it on the rice with a side of steamed veggies. I prefer an extra side of the drippings to dip on the side. Again, don’t say I did not warn you about going inside. It’s definitely not the cleanest. but its the most comforting and delicious chinese meats you will find in the city. There is always a line but trust me, it moves quick. There are sides/rice dishes as well. You can order take out or dine in. Cash only.

Oh man this place is legit. It’s $ 7.50 a lb for BBQ pork, roast pork, and under $ 20 for a duck. So of course get a couple lbs each with some nou mi fan and go home and chow down. I sat there and started with the juicy, roasted chunks of pork and that beautiful crackling while Netflixing my evening away, and before I knew it found that I was just picking out the crackling and eating delicious, delicious pig skin. Not wanting to use up all the good stuff, I moved on to the BBQ pork and roast duck before being struck by my own brilliance. Which happens often. I took that heavenly roasted duck juice, slightly sweet and fatty and savory, and poured it all over the chunks of roasted pork. I don’t remember much of what happened next. But after all was said and done and chopsticks strewn about… I remember defiantly thinking that this meal should end with ice cream.

Okay, as everyone saying this is mostly take out place. But I needed a lunch atm, and I usually would look for 4.5 or 5 stars in the area, but there were nothing above 4. This was one of these 4 star places. I hesitated a bit, but decided it maybe not that bad. I ordered curry chicken on rice. Well, I did not finish my plate. Everything was good, except chicken. There were sinew’s and fat served in plate. To me it’s not acceptable, but I can see how this place could be good for someone who likes fat and sinew’s, because, well if you like THAT in your food, then you would like this place.

My peoples know how to proudly display animal brutality in all it’s delicious glory. Burnt animal bodies on hooks — could be a scene out of Hostel. Veggie heads run away before the Butcher comes for you next! That roast or bbq pork. $ 8 per pound. Make sure you come by when it’s fresh! You can ask for a leaner or fattier cut. It’s better than the various Sam Woos and knock offs scattered about LA&OC. Too bad I don’t live in this neighborhood anymore. Wow they’ll even sell a whole roast pig for your home party!

Cheung Hing: the place well known for their roast ducks, roast pork and savory BBQ pork. Well folks, those deliciously delightful dishes are all but a faded memory. I believe C/H is under new ownership and staff other than the fatty who chops up the stuff at the front. I hope the previous owner’s got paid for the amount of goodwill that business location. The Pa pah duck they sold us today will be the last duck or anything else my family and I will ever savor from this establishment. For $ 18 bucks, we got Pa pah duck fat. Too bad for the Cheung Hing name. Do not recommend this business and most definitely we will not return.

Duck, duck, goose? At Cheung Hing, DUCKDUCKDUCK! Probably among the most cost-effective duck, because you are neither forced to get an entire Peking duck nor restricted to fine-dining-portions of fancy duck confit. The duck rice plate at Cheung Hing is perfect in terms of taste, portion, and price to satisfy duck cravings. The place is very hole-in-the-wall, almost like street food, but to be optimistic I guess that gives a more authentic feel. Since it’s gained some popularity, it’s perhaps not as cheap as truely unknown hole-in-the-walls, but everything is still very reasonably priced. When in doubt, I suggest not straying too far from the famous duck. We tried some other items and though not bad, in my opinion I’ve had better BBQ pork and chicken at fast food in HK: — Chicken: It was authentic yellow-feathered chicken(yeah that’s a direct translation so it sounds funny), but it was extremely scrawny — BBQ pork: Always a safe choice, and the server was kind enough to ask us whether we had a preference for the lean or fatty cuts. Maybe the more popular fatty option would have been better, because we got the lean one which turned out very dry and had a funny texture. — Roast pork: Pretty good! This one is lean-option-safe and the crispy skin is magically delish, though I would have preferred more actual pork than skin. All the rice plates come with a side of cabbage so you don’t feel as guilty eating so much meat and white rice. I’m not a huge rice fan, but I must admit, the rice soaked up with the fat and flavors of the roast meat is the next best thing to the duck here P:

My brother raved about this place for months and finally dragged us all out there this weekend to try it out. This place encapsulates everything you would imagine when talking about a hole in the wall chinese meat shop. It’s dirty, loud, greasy and the(great) smell permeates the air both inside and outside. We ordered a number of items but the ones that stood out were the roast duck, the roast pork and the char siu riblets. Each and every one of these items were pretty close to the best I’ve ever had. And that is saying something considering the great chinese meat shops we have in my home town of Honolulu. Perfectly salty, fatty and moist the meat is accompanied by the most flavorful and crispy skin. Unfortunately the char siu itself is not the best there is but hey, you can’t have everything in one shop right? Overall, for some chinese meats, this place is simply«as good as it gets.»

Everything so good! My family and I have been coming here for many years and are never disappointed with the meats. From bbq pork to roast duck, everything tasted great. The only thing about this place is that if you decide to dine in. Things may be and feel a little dirty. Overall will definitely recommend!

We have all heard the story of The Ugly Duckling. It’s a story of a young ugly duckling who was constantly bullied by her friends because of her appearance. But as we know, the duckling eventually blossomed into a beautiful Swan, admired and revered by all. But you never heard the epilogue. With beauty, fame, and power by her side, the Swan vengefully sought for all the ducks who had bullied her. Swan roasted each duck until their skin were crisp to the touch, and then she would send them off into a place known as Cheung Hing. To this day, it is said that one could walk by Noriega and 30th and still smell the roasted skin of the duck bullies… As a Unilocaler investigator, I had to check out the legendary Cheung Hing myself. True to the tales, the aroma of roasted duck found me almost a block away. Mesmerized, I followed my nose all the way inside Cheung Hing. As I was ordering my plate of Roast Duck Over Rice, I saw Natalie Portman sitting with a plate of her own on the side table. I am a big Star Wars fan, so I was very excited to see Padme in the actual flesh. I handed the cashier my $ 7.50 and immediately sat across from Padme at the greasy table. «Wow Padme, it’s so great to finally meet you! You know, Anakin actually turned out okay in the end, and Luke and Leia are doing great. Hey what are you doing here anyway?» «The same reason why you are here.» She pointed to her plate of Roast Duck Over Rice. In my rush to meet Padme, I had forgotten to admire the beauty of my plate. The glaze of the crispy skin reflected the bright lights of Cheung Hing. The oils and fat, full of flavor, were leaking from the duck and into the crevices between each grain of soft and fluffy rice. It looked spectacular, and smelled even better. It must have tasted even better than that because Padme was attacking her plate with ferocity. She licked the juice off her fingers after sinking her teeth into the tender meats from the duck leg. The duck was delicious, yes. But it was still very uncharacteristic of her to savagely devour the duck in that violent manner. «Hey Padme, maybe you should slow down. I know it’s delicious and all, but you’re still a Hollywood actress and there are paparazzi everywhere.» With half of her face still buried in the plate, her eyes rose to stare into my own. Her eyes were beginning to turn red, and her pupils dilated into utter blackness. «You keep calling me Padme…» she hissed. «I…I’m sorry, would… would you prefer Qu-Queen Amidala?» «Can’t you see???» She stood. Black feathers sprouted from her sides. She fluttered her arms fluidly and cocked her head. Her black pupils fixed onto me without expression. «I am the Black Swan.»

My boyfriend and I came here after school after searching on Unilocal.We came here around 730pm and there was a lot of parking space. So we are able to find a parking spot right in front of the store. When we got into the restaurant, the place was pretty small. There was only maybe 5 – 6 table max. This place is mostly for ordering to go. Since we got here late, there was a table for us to sit down. We ordered egg gravy beef over rice and beef chow fun. The wait for the food didn’t take long and the food was hot and steamy. Both of our food was delicious. We had tried these dishes at many other restaurants and this one tasted the best. My boyfriend and I will definitely come back and try their hot deli. We most likely not going to dine in but will surely buy food from here to go! Ps. We also tried their mochi but it did not taste as good as we thought. Next time, we will just stick to the hot deli and their asian dishes.
