*** 145 Palm Bay Rd Location*** Been a long time regular Hopbo customer 7+ years. Recently noticed the egg rolls have not been tasting that good and seem different from
Our prior visits. Same issue the last 3 orders. I hope the delicious tasting egg rolls return. Will give it another try In a week or so. Also the fried rice had less flavor the past several visits. Egg rolls tasted like the cheap frozen ones sold in the stores if that helps.
*** update, nothings changed, can no longer recommend. Will try back in 6months-1year. It was great 5 stars before but something’s changed.

Here we are with another spot on the boarders of Palm Bay, technically West Melbourne, FL.
Felt like deja vu pulling up to this place. Just like every other Chinese takeout place scattered across these badlands. Just yesterday I can remember being a kid kicking and screaming in one of these dingy lit places with the hazy tinted menus that look like something Wish would sell today. Outdated to put it nicely.
As I was trying to google what Hop Bo meant in English I walked inside what seemed to be a traditional Chinese takeout joint. Nothing different going on here at first glance, or second, or third.
They happen to have a few tables and chairs to sit down at so I grabbed a menu and started scouring what appeared to be a math exam with all the numbered choices. I ordered an orange chicken combination platter(egg roll and fried rice included), beef teriyaki on a stick, and crab rangoon.
Now as I was waiting for my food, I started observing my surroundings in detail. Really taking it all in in there. The table tops were clean, but besides that, place didn’t look like it’d been deep cleaned in awhile. Giant mirror with dust all over it. Dead flies scattered all over the ground in the corners. (Shown in pictures) Walls scuffed up and the look as if it’s been 12 different establishments before this one.
They opened in 2002 according to the pictures hanging on their wall. Also they’re trying to flex some awards from 2007 and 2008 as shown in pictures lol. Which is prly the last time those flies were swept up, but who knows. Didn’t bother with the bathroom I had seen enough. Couple of young kids running around in the kitchen. One came up to me to say hi and lingered directly behind me for a bit. A young girl helping answering the phone and a girl about my age also taking phone orders in front.
Now once my food was ready they put all items in a small box as if you just left Sam’s Club with a few things. Not the worst idea on that part. But once I sat down trying to get pictures I realized I had no plates to start pulling things out so I had to improvise at that point. Also tried to buy a bottle of water after the fact and they wouldn’t do any Apple Pay or debit card transactions under 5 dollars which is what lead me to leaving and eating this one at home.
Orange chicken was just like every other overly breaded orange chicken you find almost anywhere. Dark meat overpowered by orange breading. The flavor on the orange wasn’t bad, but I could just feel the sodium hitting my blood stream within a few bites. The fried rice wasn’t anything special either. The beef teriyaki didn’t smell good to me, chewed on a corner for a minute and threw the rest away. Egg roll also didn’t smell good. I’m not a big fan of this type of food, sodium city one could say. The best part of the meal was actually the crab rangoons. Which is the only thing I kept eating.
I did notice they had a diet section and vegetarian section on their menu. They got a few points for that part.
Anyways nothing crazy here. The flies and sodium kind of did it for me, so I’m gonna go drink roughly 8 green juices and take my blood pressure medication now and just end this one here. Wouldn’t go back myself, they can have it. See y’all on the next one.

This place on Palm Bay rd is terrible. I wouldn’t even feed this food to my dog. The service is even worse. The day I went and placed an order there was a Caucasian lady at the front. She has a terrible attitude. That woman should not be working in any customer service setting. They got my order wrong and that lady had a terrible attitude about it. She talk trash about me but like the coward she is she walked to the back where she to avoid what I was about to tell her. I waited 20 minutes only told her get cold food. I will be making a call the the Health Department for some of the nasty thingsI saw while waiting for my food.

The food is good but the service was very poor. I am black and when I stepped to the counter I was not greeted by the very young girl and was not asked if she could help me. She gave me a dirty look when I refused to respond to her disrespectful manner. But I noticed that when a Caucasian woman came in she was greeted with a smile and was asked how can I help you. Clearly the young hostess knows how to greet customers as long aythey are the right color. The hateful look that the young hostess gave me simply for coming to her counter for service was beyond acceptable but they don’t have to worry about me spending my money in their establishment again.

My husband wasn’t feeling well today, so I decided to order some dumplings for him. I chose Hopbo on North Wickham Road, as it’s the closest one to our home. I walked into the store and placed my order at 5:06 PM: one serving of boiled dumplings and one serving of pork with eggplant. I sat down to wait, playing on my phone.
However, all the other customers who were waiting to pick up their food left, and so did those who came after them, but mine never came. So, I walked up to the counter and asked, “Is my order ready?” The young man at the counter said, “Not yet.” I continued waiting.
A few minutes later, the young man approached me and asked, “I just want to confirm, what did you order?” I repeated my order. Right at that moment, I heard a loud shout from the kitchen: “We’re out of eggplant, it’s all sold out!”
By this time, it was already 5:54 PM. I waited for over 40 minutes, only to be told they were sold out!
I’d been to this restaurant a few times before because it was recommended in a Chinese WeChat group. The first two times, I noticed that for any dish involving meat, you had to look very carefully to find the actual slices of meat—especially the preserved pork with cabbage, where the preserved pork was cut as thin as a fingernail and the amount was minuscule. Because of this, I stopped choosing this restaurant.
Today, I thought, “Maybe I misunderstood them before?” In fact, I did not misunderstand them; they really are that bad! I am furious!

If you’re craving fresh, flavorful, and generous portions of Chinese food, Hop Bo delivers every single time! The menu is packed with all the classics, and everything tastes like it was made to order. The vegetables are crisp, the meats are tender, and the sauces have that perfect balance of savory and just the right hint of sweetness.
Service is quick and friendly, whether you’re dining in or picking up, and the prices are more than reasonable for the amount of food you get. I especially love how consistent the quality is—no matter when I come, my favorites are always spot-on.
Hop Bo isn’t just a “go-to” spot—it’s the spot when you want comforting, authentic Chinese that hits the spot every time. Highly recommend!

Delicious food. Generous portions and very nice help. Always well cooked and ready fast. My favorite place for take out and a perfect stop while nearby at Publix. Don’t believe the negative reviews as for the last almost 3 years always great and I’m a New York take out guy!
