★★★★★ 5.0 Andrew McLaren · Jan 2026

Always an amazing meal. Seating and parking are limited, but even with a long line we were able to get seats. There are no servers as you pick up your order and sit where a spot is available. If you want an affordable and healthy meal this place is amazing! Seating is outdoors but they have space heaters and covered tables for rainy weather.

A small place with a lot of character and great content !! We were so thrilled to find so many vegetarian and vegan options . Love that they prepare all their dishes with all organically grown produce Very friendly staff . Suuuuper tasty cookies too ! A cute mostly-covered , heated, self/service dining area . I got the Dan’s Spicy delight. It was NOT SPICY AT ALL. It was creamy, sweet-ish ….not nearly spicy :(. I am pretty sure they forgot to add the spicy ingredient because I can’t imagine anyone might have found that spicy

Charlie Hong Kong has such a cool, laid-back vibe with delicious, fresh food that hits the spot every time. I grabbed a bowl here late in the evening , everything was flavorful, hearty, and full of fresh veggies. The sauces are perfectly balanced, and it’s great knowing the ingredients are organic and healthy. The neon-lit setup gives it that classic Santa Cruz charm too. Perfect place for a quick, satisfying, and feel-good meal!

The food here is absolutely delicious. The spring rolls (salad wraps) here were my favorite for the longest time, however I recently visited and I was so disappointed. The prices have gone up an insane amount. The salad wraps, which are vegetarian but delicious because of the pickled veggies were such a let down. They added two pieces of carrot in my wraps which were gone after my first bite and I was left with lettuce and noodles. I paid $10 for one wrap and peanut sauce ($3). That being said, the food here is delicious and I recommend the Spicy Dan & Gado Gado.

Absolutely delicious fresh food, amazing customer service, everything came out crazy fast! We got a hot jasmine tea, ginger lemonade, two rice bowls - one with sweet garlic tofu and one with teriyaki chicken. We added veggie medley and avocado. So thrilled at the experience!
