Great place for breakfast and lunch! Great prices and real good food. The peanut butter french toast is something I would recommend as a side to thier steak and eggs for breakfast.

Just real Cantonese breakfast shop vibes. You can see where east meets west and it shines through in flavor. Everything I've had so far after a couple times coming, is simple and delicious. If i ever find something I don't like, I'll update the review but this has yet to happen.

I visited because i saw influence's, Joshua Weissman's review on a few dishes. I ordered the corned beef and egg sandwich and a French toast. They were very taste and unique to other dishes I had from other cafés. I would recommend you try it out. I did see other dishes I would try next time I visit. A few tables available for a quick bite. A super cute cozy hole-in-the-wall type of place. If you are thinking about it, then try it.

This is a small cafe, but the food is authentic Cantonese HK style, tasty and delicious. It is too bad that I live too far away, otherwise I would love to try all their food. Love to be here.

Kissena Cafe, a delightful little Hong Kong-style tea house in Flushing, offers a cozy, family-owned vibe. The staff are warm, easygoing, and incredibly helpful, which made our breakfast visit a pleasant experience. Our family ordered a variety of dishes including corned beef egg sandwiches, luncheon meat egg sandwiches, French toast, beef stew with flat rice noodles in soup, milk tea, and coffee tea.
The rice noodle dish was particularly comforting for winter, featuring a soup that was perfectly seasoned, capturing a tasteful blend of beef flavors complemented by the freshness of scallions and lettuce. The beef stew was another highlight, with big, tender chunks of meat that nearly melted in your mouth— a superb execution of a classic dish. Although the rice noodles were good, they didn’t quite reach the heights of the best I’ve had.
The French toast was beautifully presented and tasted somewhat plain, but the addition of peanut butter was a nice touch. The sandwiches were exceptional, offering a satisfying mix of salty, rich beef and creamy, fluffy scrambled eggs on well-toasted bread. The drinks, both milk tea and coffee tea, were authentically prepared and exactly what you’d expect from a Hong Kong tea house.
A special mention goes to the curry fish balls, which were a hit with my son—he loved them so much he asked for seconds.
Considering the quality and pricing, Kissena Cafe is a gem in Flushing. I highly recommend it for anyone looking for an authentic Hong Kong breakfast experience.

When I entered it was pretty small. Luckily, we found a seat. I was starving and my parents were still ordering. After a few minutes the dishes were ready and I was devouring it all. They were all delicious and I hope I come back.
Ordered from Uber Eats. Food is good, however this is the second time I ordered the family meal for $36 and they forgot the beans to go with the rice.

Their small sandwiches are really expensive. They sell for 4.5 US dollars, which is nearly 5 US dollars. They only accept cash. The key is that they are not delicious.

Legit I had brought extra money to buy a single sandwich and even 4 dollars wasn’t enough to get the cheapest thing on the menu. Plus they don’t take card at all. The sandwich they did end up making me had literally nothing inside but eggs and the thinnest slice of ham. I have never been so baffled at how expensive a tiny bakery could be. I felt absolutely scammed that I had to go home and put more ingredients on that sandwich to make it worth eating for lunch. Will not go back
