Sun Maxim's is a cozy and affordable Hong Kong-style restaurant that offers a variety of comforting dishes. The menu includes shrimp/rice rolls, pork/beef rice rolls, meatloaf, fish clay pot, chicken sticky rice, siu mai, and turnip cake. The rice rolls are especially praised, and the shrimp rice noodle roll is considered one of the best in the city, with soft noodles and tender shrimp. The restaurant itself is fairly big, but many customers prefer takeout. The food is tasty, fresh, and has the original flavor of its ingredients with minimal condiments needed. The rice often has a fragrant taste from the meat and a crispy bottom. The pork rib clay pot is highly recommended, with many customers loving the crispy rice and flavorful toppings like spare ribs, chicken, and mushrooms. The rice flour used for the rice rolls is milled in-house, making them especially silky and fresh. Customers also enjoy the Hong Kong-style congee, Chinese doughnuts, and other breakfast options, available from 8 am. Service is friendly and attentive, with staff quickly bringing drinks and menus, even during busy times. Overall, Sun Maxim's provides a satisfying and affordable dining experience, with dishes that are consistently delicious despite some variability in quality.
