Haven’t come here for 7 years. We used to come here every week during my wife pregnancy. She love the sole fish fillet. She said it tastes the same as before

I have been going here for years. Food was what you would typically expect from Chinese cafe. However, the service was terrible. We had to wait 40 minutes before our first dish came out. They even messed that up. We asked if they can check the status of our food but 2 of the workers listened to us but never checked.

Food: delicious beef stew with wonton noodles soup. Seafood chow mein was crispy and flavorful. Majority of Cantonese dishes here are good 👍🏻
Service: friendly and courteous staff. Attentive to my party needs as well.
Atmosphere: ABC Cafe is undergoing a renovation inside and outside so it is becoming modernized and brighter.

There is a $78 lobster offering that is roughly 3 lbs lobster served with E-fu noodles below.
$3 more gets you some veggies.

The name has been around for decades, and once a popular place for a late-night meal or hangout. The food could have been better and has been better in past years. Considering value, much of the menu here has been refocused to mimic Cantonese/Hong Kong cafes. Unfortunately, there are some misses and highlights inconsistent for a return. Their noodle and stir-fry dishes are good. They are not the salt bombs that could be, and beef dishes are well constructed. Some Fried Rice dishes are above average, but a specialty attempt with Dried Scallops proved to be thin and lacking any real flavor. Curry dishes are really skimpy with the proteins. The most notable failure is the Steamed Rice Sheets with Shrimp. I have never had such a horrible rendition of this favorite Cantonese delicacy. I just couldn't imagine any of the other versions to be any better. What they do well here are the popular dry or wet noodle dishes. There are many misses and not worth exploring in my opinion. The service is excellent, and the drinks are strong, done with some care. This may have been the only savour to otherwise a questionable decision.

This place is a complete joke. I first tried ordering from ABC Cafe back in February when they were new on UberEATS. After waiting 10 minutes, my order got canceled. I figured maybe they were new and still trying to figure things out, so I gave them the benefit of the doubt.
Now it’s August, and I gave them another chance—big mistake. Same exact thing happened. I waited, and after 10 minutes, canceled again. Seriously? That’s six months later and nothing has improved.
If you don’t actually want to take orders on UberEATS, then get off the app. Stop wasting people’s time. This is completely unprofessional and unacceptable

One of my favorite HK Cafes! The dishes here are very cheap and delicious, especially the $8.99 hainan chicken rice. I also love the singapore stir fried noodies and the fried chicken. The drinks are also very good too. They use real condensed milk in the milk tea and their lemon tea is sweet and refreshing.

Who remembers going here back in the early 2000s late night 2-3 am lol nostalgia. Haven’t been since ! I Gotta give it a try again! Prices probably went up though miss those 7$ steak plates
Review is based on 1dishes only!!!! I have been a fan of pickle vegetables with shredded pork noodle soup since I was a young boy in Chinatown in Los Angeles.. Sonia’s very excited when I saw on Instagram video promoting this on afternoon tea yesterday.. I was so excited going there today and I was so disappointed! 1) the noodle has aquiline taste.. perhaps it was but rinsed well after cooking. It left a nasty taste 2) there was no pickle vegetables.. it was some something else 3) white onion?? 4) soup taste funny… I don’t like to say bad things and I normally don’t like to post them but this was a horrible meal.. wasted my time..
