It’s as best as you can get for Cantonese/Hong Kong style food in San Diego. While not as good as in Los Angeles, it gets your fix in San Diego. Everything was hot and fresh.

We loved this place so much we went there for dinner 3 nights in a row when we visited San Diego! I'm originally from HK, so it was nice to have authentic Cantonese cuisine in the states. The staff is very friendly too!

Nobel Chef Restaurant was recommended to us and we decided to try them for an authentic Cantonese dishes. We were surprised by how small this restaurant was as we entered. Then we were surprised again by how expensive their dishes were. By the front entrance there were hanging ducks in the window. We ordered the pan fried seafood chow mein noodle dish. Also, we ordered the BBQ char lieu and roasted duck as side dishes. The pan fried noodle dish was delicious with right portion of the crunchy noodles and seafood. The deli side dish was okay but nothing scream at us to go back to have it again. The plum dipping sauce for the roasted duck was the star of the dish. Waitstaff was attentive but did not offer the sincere recommendations when requested. We were told that everything was good and delicious. Overall, we probably won’t go back to this restaurant as food was good but not exceptional and definitely not worth the high price point for their dishes.

(Lunch on 2025/07/03) - Garlic Beef was really good - Honey BBQ pork was above average: pork was consistently cooked and easy to chew - Roast duck was pretty good but it takes a bit of work to chew the meat off each piece - Seafood claypot was okay. I'd like a bit more texture and flavor.

We returned to this place after three years. We ordered the same type dishes like we did the first time. The wonton soup tasted like dishwasher fluid, I felt bad for the wasted snow pea and carrots. Beef noodle was under par, the seafood dish was too oily and salty. Most of all the price was ridiculous. If you could help it avoid it at all costs. I have a feeling they would not be there long.

Well, let me start with a good news. The food is five stars a lot better than some of the other food around the convoy area. But the place is like the lowest quality atmosphere. It was clean but kinda looks like a storage closet/warehouse with a window on one side. we signed in with the hostess, who also appeared to be the manager, but he gave our table to somebody else by mistake because he doesn’t speak English that didn’t help. The food service is very good but they need to move to a bigger and better location and get an English speaking hostess to be considered a success. Oh, and the review wouldn’t be complete without saying that I think this is one of the most expensive restaurants on convoy, not sure why certainly not paying much rent for that space. the food is very expensive.
