They seem to favor people of their own race. The table next to us came in way after us and got their drinks right away and ordered right away. We were kept waiting until she came back to bring waters and take our order. We literally ordered one thing, wontons and their food still came first, we were kept waiting until I had to walk up to waitress to get our bill. Also we assumed wontons were cream cheese, they were not and were filled with chicken or some kind of meat. This was not specified on the menu what flavor it was, but this part was probably our fault as Chinese is not our first language.

Tried 2 dishes plus a drink. Both dinner dishes had little to no flavour. The wonton soup had a metal shaving in it. Puts you off a bit.

Café New Honolulu imhv is a rising star in Chinatown relatively new yet should be regarded one of the most affordable, least expensive (considering both quality and quantity not necessary ambiente or service) and decent place with a variety of menu. In a nutshell, it is conveniently located on Stockton Street between Clay and Sacramento streets near Muni buses (8, 30, 30s, 45 and 1) and new LRV T line. My favorite dish is its Cantonese beef brisket 牛腩 wonton soup which imhv is the BEST (replacing ABC Restaurant used to be located on Jackson Street) in The City: deliciously prepared, i.e., real quality beef brisket牛腩, and insanely inexpensive: $8 bucks! (Common let's be honest tell me who can beat the Chinatown price? No one! LOL) Singaporean curry rice noodles are very good also as well as beef chow fun and fish clay pot. However, the service as agreed by other reviewers would be rather slow because there’s only “one man army” who is a nice young lady who tries her best to wait a total of twenty-five tables of guests from hosting, ordering, cashiering and cleaning. Personally, I always help her to clean up after I eat as I would be considered a regular as I visit there at least once a week. Best of luck to New Honolulu!

We ordered porridge, fish with white sauce spaghetti and fried rice. They all taste terrible. We went there for our first time just because the location is convenient and there's only 1 waitress that do all the food ordering, serving food, drink preparation and collecting $ from customers. Everything was terrible and I regretted going to the restaurant so badly especially it's on Mother's Day. I rather donated the $ to charity than paying to go to this restaurant again. The Chinese food is NOT authentic and I won't recommend this restaurant to any of the Chinese people on earth.

An enjoyable meal after exploring San Francisco Chinatown. Fried Rice with salted fish and chicken was my favorite. Complimentary tea was fragrant and good.

During a tour of San Fran, I walked through Chinatown and gave Cafe New Honolulu a try. Ordered the Sweet Fried Rice and Fish Balls. The rice was GREAT (loved the texture and stickiness). The fish balls did nothing for me - lived the sauce, but didn't enjoy the fish (it was made correctly, and I'm sure others love it, but it wasn't for me). However, I would go back and try another dish or two.

Had lunch here today and the food is very decent and the prices are reasonable comparing to today’s standard on prices. Ordered three dishes and the food is quite authentic. Overall good value for the price and taste.

They didn't understand me correctly, I think it was because I'm Mexican.

Lightning protection, hard to eat, feels like being pulled out. I threw away half of the food, it was disgusting. Just as disgusting as the service attitude. Ruined the mood. Also, I’m not sure what kind of meat I used. I feel like it’s too frozen. The garbage ends up in the trash can. Please don’t pick it up secretly and serve it again ?
Avoid it, it tastes terrible, it feels like it was pooped out. I threw away half of it, just disgusting. Just as disgusting as the service attitude. Ruined my mood. Also, I'm not sure what kind of meat is used , it feels like it has been frozen for a long time, This garbage ended up in the trash can, just don't serve it again.
We were on vacation for a week, and the food was so good here that we went back a second time!!! The place was nice and super clean... very impressed! Food variety and drinks were all on point... Pricing was phenomenal....

I came here on a Friday afternoon for lunch and got the Beef Chow Fun in Dry Style. Unfortunately, it wasn't really good- one of the worst Beef Chow Fun I've ever had. Usually this dish comes oily which makes up for the flavor, however it was super dry. Service was okay and food did come up in a timely manner.
