Charlie Hong Kong opened in 1998 in Santa Cruz, CA, aiming to provide healthy, abundant, and fast “real” food. Charlie, the original chef and the “Charlie” in Charlie Hong Kong, created a restaurant that is inspired by Southeast Asian street food and locally grown organic produce. We have preserved that vision while promoting our own belief that everyone needs to eat their “greens”.
