Been here a few times and truly enjoyed it but it felt like it lost its charm in yesterday visit.
Service: I truly did not know who my server was because nobody checked on us once it see if we wanted another drink or if everything was okay. Witnessing a group of people bundle up talking for an hour, skipping songs on the music really lacked the hospitality that I once enjoyed in this spot.
The person who was communicating the specials was so soft spoken, it was almost impossible to hear it over Fergie - Glamorous. Whole experience felt off.
Food: we order the salad, squid, tin fish, ravioli and rib sandwich with fires. Two best things - the fries and squid.

Great vibe and enjoyed the wine selection. Rice rolls were our favorite and a stand out. The congee is comforting but a little mild. The char siu sandwich was rich. Fries were great. $130 total for 2 people

2 friends and I got a reservation for a Tuesday night. We had been wanting to try this spot for a while now and it’s always hard to get a table! We ordered the clam chowder jook, naw mak fan, and jiew yeem yao yu with rice to split. While all of the flavors were amazing and the food was prepared perfectly, we left feeling hungry and noted that normally congee is such a filling dish but was not here. Our server was very nice and the inside is a cute vibe. The takes on Chinese food are fun to try but I don’t know if I would come back.

Had a great time at Bonnie's. All the dishes we ordered ranged from v good to amazing. Service was great, very welcoming.
Their cocktails sound funky too, but I didn't try any. Next time.

We came as a group of 5 after a couple rounds of tennis. Our mood was high, fueled by endorphins and the type of love you feel when surrounded by some of your best friends. At first, Bonnie’s seemed like the right place for us to close our lovely Sunday evening. It would be hard to ruin.
We put in our order, 7 items total. We were instructed to share these items “family style.” As though doing us a service, the waitress said the chef would “course out the meal.” I was delighted, and ready to indulge.
What ensued was one of the most frustrating culinary experiences of my life, and drove me to write this review.
The meal was “coursed out” so that we were served one item at a time. We devoured each dish immediately, the portion being enough to suit two comfortably. As such, with each dish we were left with the awkward moment of having one noodle, one bean, one piece of fried dough left on the plate, no one brave enough to take it for fear of what the others might think. This is not how you want to feel around your friends when dining. Had these items been brought all together we could have rejoiced in the harmony of flavors on our plate.
We were disappointed and we left hungry.
Positively, this experience gave us a common grievance for us to bond over. And for that I am grateful.

Hunger. That’s a restaurants first job. Make sure you don’t leave hungry. 8 entrees, $20+ dollars each, for a group of five, and we left hungry. $210 total. Enough money but not enough food.
This is by far the best Cantonese in the city. Fun, flavorful and delicious!

Contemporary Chinese American food. The food is very well presented of the cultures. But I don’t understand there is no chilli oil or chilli sauce condiments.

If I could put more stars, I would! Recently came here for my B-Day dinner with a group of friends, and we ordered almost everything on the menu – we were all OBSESSED! Special shoutout to the best waitress ever, Jocelyn (hope that’s the right spelling!)... she was on top of it all, gave great recs, and provided top-notch service!! <3
Thanks for creating a memorable dining experience for my special day! :)

I became a huge fan of Bonnie's after a recent dinner there. We were a walk-in group of three and managed to get bar seats (~6 total) right away on a Friday night (definitely try to get reservations). The cocktail list is solid (we tried nearly the whole menu as a group collectively). The food is all phenomenal, specifically the long beans, the bkrib, and the mussels dish. Strongly recommend doing family style and ordering as many plates as you can manage, because really everything we had was fantastic. Our bar tender / service staff were all fantastic, quick, and friendly. Will definitely be coming back.
Dietary restrictions: The staff were very good about noting allergies and ensuring they didn't interfere with our orders (including recommending replacements to avoid shellfish allergies).
