Really delicious Hong Kong style Chinese food. Highly recommend the runny egg over chow fun dishes.
One of the best Hong Kong Cafes in the bay. Good is delicious, prices are fair, and the owner is very friendly. Recommend the baked pork chop over spaghetti.
The food was amazing I hope this place gets more recognition students receive a discount also and the staff was super friendly

The food here is amazing if you are looking for a Hong Kong cafe. The baked pork chop over rice was incredibly delicious and the portions were generous. The milk tea was perfectly brewed. Friendly staff as well. Definitely coming back!.

Amazing baked pork chops
Hidden gem that deserves more love.
The menu has so many tasty HK classic cha chaang teng items. The baked pork chops are perfectly seared and the tomato sauce tastes amazing.
Also the portion sizes are big, great value for money. The service is fast and staff is friendly!
Overall one of best HK cha chaang teng’s in San Francisco

Their Hand Shredded Chicken with Hainanese Rice is probably the most popular menu item! I can see why! Tender chilled chicken with very tasty rice, steamed cabbage, and ginger sauce. My only gripe was the saltiness...
Shanghai Soup Dumplings were decent! Lots of soup. The pork filling was just average. The Pork Dumplings With Yellow Chives were better in my opinion! Juicy seasoned pork and the wrapper was a good texture.
Definitely come here for a hearty meal and big portions! A hidden gem in the area. The owner was really kind and gave us complimentary Hong Kong Lemon Tea too!

Excellent food! We ordered takeout chicken fried rice, and Thai beef basil egg rice. Both were excellent, with the fried rice having an intense pepper flavor (but light on the egg and veggies) while the Thai beef was varied and flavorful with the right amount of spicy punch. Both came very generously portioned for $17 each. I'm definitely coming back to try everything else!

Great restaurant, great food, family friendly and clean.
High quality Hong Kong style food. Of the dishes I ordered, the chicken ginseng soup really stood out to me. A lot of work goes into making a soup like that and you could really taste the quality.

Went in shortly after opening on a Friday. Chilly late April day, place was empty but a very steady stream of pick up orders.
My partner and I were on the verge of crashing out, tired of our week's move from Cayuga Terrace to here in Ingleside (a move is a move regardless of distance, ha).
Similar story to others, we wanted our food quick so we opted for the curry plates instead of the baked food. We ordered a pork chop curry and the beef brisket curry, both over spaghetti.
We were contemplating of powering it through the meal to go home and make some mocha pot coffee or to visit a shop nearby for our caffeine fix. To our surprise, Kevin comes from the kitchen like a super hero with a pair of large mugs of HK tea, on the house.
The food was incredible, sadly I don't have any pictures as we didn't wait to clean our plates. The pork chops (the order came with 2) were truly something special and we'll be ordering that every time, and rotate the other entree as we try out the menu.
Kevin's hospitalality was truly memorable, will be back many times. 5/5
