I generally get their noodle soup. Milk tea is good. I recommend their Tomato Beef noodle soup. Very comforting taste. However I noticed their portion is getting smaller and smaller. There is a gap in the take out bowl after pouring all the soup in. I would still recommend this cafe for good tasting food.

Amazing food, really cheap and affordable prices. The waiter was so nice and didn't care about petty fees. Got 2 water cups for free 😊. I got the tomato soup macaroni and the portions were absolutely huge. I could barely finish. The milk tea is outstanding. Only complaint I have is that the sunny side egg was a bit raw, other than that, I fully recommend this amazing restaurant!!

Came here once and never again. They don't have high chairs, just booster seats without securement straps. So we sat in the corner booth so we could try to keep my 1 yo from falling out of the chair. We set the chair up no help from the staff. The corner of the booth was dusty and grimy like it's not regularly cleaned, and ofcourse my baby was touching it.
The menu has a variety of dishes. We ordered the black pepper chicken on udon soup which was not bad, and the beef brisket on rice which was pretty bad. It was $14.99 for the brisket dish with milk tea and broth. The dish itself was stingy for the price, but that didn't really matter because it was underseasoned, lukewarm.. probably microwaved. My daughter who normally loves this dish at other restaurants refused to eat it.
So we decided to leave. My husband asked for the bill but they only take cash so I paid. It was about $33 after tax and I put down $36.. I mean 10% tip for bare minimum service, lousy food, and dirty environment I felt was fair enough. I asked for container to take home the remaining 3/4 brisket dish. She said they charge extra.. 25 cents so I agreed because it was either that or waste the food as lackluster as it was. She brought back a very small container (the size better restaurants use to box sides) and crammed the entree in there it was basically overflowing.
She looked at the $36 I put on the $33 bill and ran off to reprint a new receipt for some reason as if there was a mistake. The bill came back a bit higher.. $33.89 maybe she put the charge for the tiny take out container. I put the $36 back on the new receipt. While collecting it, she spread the bills out before me as if checking if I wanted to add more tip to compensate for the container upcharge or whatever but I told her it's okay to take the payment as is thank you very much. I would just like to leave, my fault for wanting to try a different restaurant.
I would recommend Golden Horse instead for great Hong Kong cafe food. They are also clean and don't charge for containers. Or if you want a delicious beef brisket on rice generously portioned try Mr. Congee instead.
Summary: not family friendly, unsafe for infants, dirty setting, subpar food, charges for takeout containers, accepts cash only
Fast service and friendly staff. The Guilin noodles were good. Also enjoyed by Lemon tea which was well made with the right amount of lemon and sugar.
Food is good, price is reasonable. Staff are very friendly and helpful.
Excellent 👍 foods and prices
Cozy place. Don't expect high levels of service but can expect high quality food that'll hit the spot. Price is still quite good for 2025.
Food was great here. Come here if you miss Hong Kong cafes.
Love the milk tea here, and the yeung chow fried rice was decent too. Their specialty is Hong Kong style food though so hopefully I get to try that next time. The service is very fast and genuinely friendly.
Food is not good and service is slow

Good quality food, small portion however
I placed an order for the signature 3 cup chicken. However, when it arrived, it was not properly heated and resembled a chicken soup rather than a stir-fry dish. It was evident that the meal had been reheated. Upon expressing my dissatisfaction, I was offered an alternative dish, the Hainan chicken rice. Unfortunately, this dish also fell short of expectations. The rice was hard and the ginger sauce had an unpleasant odor, indicating that it had spoiled. The server simply removed the sauce without providing any further explanation or apology.
Amazing hong kong style cafe with very attentive servers and tasty food + milk tea. Will definitely come back

Couldn’t remember how many times we’ve been here for breakfast. Tiny restaurant, but very warm vibe. The staff have always been so friendly and helpful. Really enjoyed their chicken steak with rice noodles for breakfast!
