Hong Kong Bakery Bistro - Colonie

Came here for my daughters bday, was placed in a storage room they called party room, charged us a party service when nothing was even set up, we set our own tables up served our own food. Ordered our food and the portions were so small charged us 30$ a lobster didnt even get half a lobster. Tried to take family pictures and the servers kept walking in front of us or standing there photobombing. The party service charge is actually tips but they dont tell you that so that you actually tip them twice. I brought a cake in and the server said we'll have to charge you to serve this here. I had used to come here plenty times never had an issue but this is the worst experience ever. Just lost a loyal customer.

Nice place for dim sum in Albany! Dim sum is cooked to order when you check off your selections on the list. Hot and fresh to your table. Also ordered the beef chow fun with gravy. Good since rice noodles need to be fresh.

A must go place if you don’t like your cake super super sweet. Its a right amount of sweetness mixed with delicious fresh fruits.They have all Chinese dishes but the bakery gets the highest ranking out of all!!!!They have the yummiest sliced chicken and garlic sauce, also there soups are really good.They offer catering also and have a wide variety of tea and desserts. They offer healthy options, coffee, alcohol, and vegetarian options as well!!Ambience is dark and cozy. I ordered a cake one day prior and they were so nice it was made on time.A must stop if you like Chinese cuisine and specially if you have a sweet tooth.

Decent service, lovely atmosphere, and a very nice bakery. The food however was not the best. Presentation was standard but they severely lacked taste. I would not go back for the bistro but the bakery is defiently worth a visit but go early before all the best products are gone.

I had never heard of this place before so thought I’d try it. Now I see why I’ve never heard of it. We tried the duck dumplings and they were AWFUL. The dumpling skin was soft and slimy and translucent. We are not picky eaters at all, but these were just so gross. We even asked the waiter what they were made of and he wouldn’t give a clear answer, because the outside of the dumpling was definitely NOT traditional dumpling. We then tried the salt and pepper squid and it had absolutely no flavor, and was over cooked and hard. What a waste. We were going to get entrees but decided to leave after that.
