Cantonese Restaurants in Monterey Park, CA

“Great Dim Sum spot for classic dim sum food and not too long on wait for a table.“

“I was riding my bike from DTLA to Riverside one hot afternoon in August and I needed a bike friendly place with an authentic Hong Kong vibe.
Hong Kong Cafe turned out to be exactly what I was looking for.
I had the HK style coffee + milk tea on ice with an order of Ovaltine French toast as a bite.
It hit the spot, and the price was comparable to what you'd pay for the same product at a similar restaurant in Hong Kong city.
Would definitely recommend it and go again.“

“First time every eating in a restaurant on a styrafoam plate, but it didn't take away from my meal. Tried out their noodles with beef and I found it to be quite tasty with the sauce. Small simple little place, tempted to return for their breakfast and evening specials“

“Wow one of the strongest standing Hong Kong western restaurants in SGV! I have been to this restaurant a few times as a child and it's still going despite Great Recession and COVID pandemic! Last time I came, it brought back a lot of childhood memories and the food was still amazing! Will come back in the future!“

“Lobster noodle special $16.99 is only available with minimum purchase $20 or more also the noodle and sides additional, $26 roasted duck has a minimum of 3 main course purchase and only available evening. The tea taste was very generic, charged my 10yrs old tea count(told me all tea count over 4yrs old), old school dim sum cart is authentic and give it a thumbs up because a lot of restaurants are no longer doing dim sum carts no more. Haven’t tried other seafood yet, but the noodle with lobster was too small and over fried, that’s what you may get for a special I guess. Total gross charge of $60-$6tax-$6tea count= $48 net with 4 dim sum flat fee of $5 plus a lobster noodle for 4 people sounds very fair. Only need to improve the food and tea quality bit more toward a higher end quality seafood restaurant with more attractive pricing.“

“This is one of our go-to places for authentic Cantonese food. We also like our special occasions celebrated here because you can secure a private banquet room for free!! I was here for my aunts 97th bday. My cousins ordered more traditional foods for the elders table. Mainly seafood dishes. The more Americanized of us got chowmein with chicken and sweet n sour chicken. The other table got noodles with seafood and cold boiled chicken, traditional for a bday celebration. . The highlight was the crispy whole piglet. Big hit for everyone. Also the shrimp with candied walnuts. And the French style filet mignon with mushrooms, always a yummy choice here. I enjoyed the sweet and sour soup. The owner was on hand to make sure all's well. The service was swift and efficient. Another great private room dining experience. It's not a fancy place but who cares ...the food is goooood. Highly recommend per usual. Dedicated parking lot is free. Credit cards accepted.“

“This restaurant was recommended by my aunt. The food was great, they gave generous portions, and the price was good.

There was a promotion where they give you a free half chicken dish if you spend a certain amount of money, and we spent double that amount, so they gave us a whole chicken dish! We actually got two different half chicken dishes as our freebie, so it was nice to try different flavors.

The staff is very nice and I highly recommend this place.“

“Hole in the wall, hidden gem, mom & pop vibes! they take card!

I can't get over these egg noodles in this wonton mein! seems like most places serve it up clumped together and you need to split your chopsticks to break them apart - BUT NOT HERE. they are silky and bouncy! and the soup is nicely flavored, enhancing everything in the dish. you also get four big wontons filled with plump shrimp and pork. I also love their hainan chicken, well seasoned, and the filet mignon has a nice kick.

Nice selection of traditional asian dessert options in individual serving sides (tofu pudding with ginger syrup, "che thai", ube tofu, etc.) and they also sell their wontons/dumplings frozen + noodles in packages.

parking is available on the street!

limited seating, but a lot of folks are doing takeaway!“

“Haven’t been here in a long while and kinda forgot about it. But my parents wanted to go specifically for some garlic crab. And it did not disappoint! One of the better Cantonese style Chinese restaurants in the SGV! I would absolutely come more often now. Whoever cooked on 8/15 dinner time, chefs kiss.

Garlic crab was delicious. Although crab is so tedious to eat like this, it was really good. Beef filet cubes were super flavorful and so tender. Not chewy at all like other Chinese restaurants make it. The lobster was my favorite. Black pepper seasoning was not too overpowering and the basil added such a nice aroma. Green beans were amazing. Perfect amount of wok char flavor and spice. Salt and pepper squid was fried perfectly, not chewy or tough at all. Clams were tasty but for this one you gotta enjoy bittermelon. If you don’t, stick with the clams and black bean sauce. Fried tofu was good, soy sauce with it just needed some chili. Beef chow fun was delicious, you can taste the wok char, noodles were perfect texture, we said no bean sprouts so they kindly added Chinese broccoli for us. The fried rice was good but lacking on something. I would definitely try a different fried rice next time.

Service - keeping in mind it’s a Chinese restaurant, they were still sooooo nice! Attentive with tea and switching plates. Food came out quick. They brought napkins and checked on us. We enjoyed our dining experience.

Parking - free small lot in this little plaza. Didn’t have an issue with parking at all. I’m sure if they got busy, parking might be a smidge difficult. But we had no issues with 3 cars.“

“From the outside this looks like a hole in the wall place in a strip mall but inside it's huge and magical! We had a party of 200 people in there and there was still areas for other pattons.
Aside from most of the staff not speaking English to tell us what we were eating when it was brought out we figured it out and everything was uniquely different in its own way!
I usually take food pics but I didn't this time! P.S beer was only 5 bucks a bottle!“

“Young chow fried rice is disappointing. It can only be labeled as young chow style FR or shrimp and char siu FR. It is missing lots of key ingredients like sea cucumbers, mushrooms, green peas, and scallops. However, what they lacked in FR has been made up in reverse osmosis ice water. No tab water served here.“

“Good Place/ Stupid Security Guard!!!!
PLEASE BE AWARE OF THE STUPID SECURITY GUARD THAT IS RUDE BEYOND WORDS. He scared away so many customers. He was just rude!! Restaurant is great!!! I was told the landlord is worse!! I don’t want retaliation so I won’t post details. But, the restaurant is great. The security guard hassled us despite not having a Handicap parking or trash can on site. He used scared tactics that he’d arrest us with our elderly handicapped parents in the car. He should not be working there, actually not any where else either for that matter!!!“

“If you want good chinese food
This isnt a bad spot

The waiters speak decent english so its easy to communicate and they recommend solid dishes
If you come and need a private room, they can accomodate too. Parking structure is in the front so quite easy“

“U must try their wonderful variety of dishes and the place is clean.“

“Although the price of dim sum is a bit high nowadays, it is very delicious and fresh. We came on a Sunday around noon and I was expecting an older food but surprisingly it was still fresh and very tasty. For example, the Macau Crispy Salted Pork Knuckle is still crispy and delicious, the colorful Beef Baiye is fresh and crispy, and the Pumpkin Steamed Pork Ribs is tender and juicy.“
