40 minutes for fast food style take out?! Actually, the food was ready for about 20-25 minutes, but the owner was reluctant and said it wasn't mine, later I asked again and again he said mine is not ready... finally another lady checked and sure enough, it's mine...The fried egg pork patty w/ rice is good... it's cold (dahhh...), but good. Pork patty's small... but good.Fish patty is so so... Siao Lung Bao is a fraud! No way it was made fresh, the skin is so thick, and after being in soup for 40 minutes... the whole thing crumbled, broken into flakes.For it's location and the food/services it intends to offer, it's not worth the money…Read More

Craved for a sandwich... searched around and found this spot... so here I went...Ordered a Cubano... size of a lady's clutch... it's cut in 2, I started with the smaller half...soft bun (would not have been my pick for this sandwich), shredded pork was creamy, pickle... it was alright, but wasn't satisfying...picked up the 2nd half... and there it was, a big chunk of pork, exactly what was missing...the whole sandwich made sense, with the chunky meat, taste automatically became twice as good...  in the end, the portion was too big, definitely good for 2 adults, wished I hadn't eat the smaller halfnext time, the lamb... or reuben... definitely going again…Read More

we've been here at least once a week for the past month as we had something going nearby...butcher selection is their set meal; skewer platter, an appetizer, steak, desert < all up to the store for $400the platter are assorted meat; all plainly grilled < no surprises...appetizer < their list looks good, but it's up to them and for a party of 7, we got 7 bowls of rocket and potato... the salad was good!steak was alright (forgetful), salmon was good (but skin hardly grilled), pork chop was thick and appealing, but it was badly cooked (too dry and tough to chew)the brownie was surprisingly good.lobster linguine was alrightspaghetti was spaghettibreakfast burrito is spicy; which should be an option by the eaterguacamole on toast was decent …Read More

somehow I've been craving for Philly Cheesesteak lately, and this is  the 3rd shop I've visited... thus far this is the best tasting one... but still not authentic...shredded steak, provolone cheese, onion... all grilled... hot long buns... is what I expectshredded steak, cheddar? mayo?? onion focaccia bread... not what I expected, but still pretty good...fries were way too salty, pumpkin soup was pretty good...all for $82 to go is pretty decent.…Read More

Ordered a Philly Cheesesteak to go...hotdog bun...stewed beef instead of steak...convenient store cheese...green and red pepper for ingredients...everything about it is just wrong...all for $130?! wouldn't pay $40 for it…Read More

was passing by, saw the menu, got the chicken salad (lunch menu F)... went back to the office... ate it, had to go back down to get more food... the portion is equivalent to an appetizer bowl... but only half full...the salad is too heavily dressed (pretty good if that's how you like it), but for those who don't... and its pre-mixed...The cashier is untrained... I asked what kind of soup, she said miso, but it's some kind of potatoPerhaps it's the crisis, the seats are comfortably separated and seem to be a good place to chill…Read More

This is the restaurant I go to every time I'm in the area, the food are always good and never disappointed recently renovated, the place is seems cleaner and brighter.a very local restaurant serving a variety of dishes (typical 茶餐廳, HKCafe).gotto love their homemade soup (said to be slowly cooked, no msg)I always go for the beef brisket, but last time there were 6 of us, so we ordered a whole bunch of food, and everything was great!…Read More

it's unfortunate, but the hostess lacks basic professionalismvery rude on the phone... overhearing a conversation.... the guy on the phone must be trying to cancel his reservation... the hostess first told him to call back later tonight... but he said something, she rolled her eyes backward, mumbled "gum ma faun ga" (so troublesome) and she began scribbling. When she was done, she said "duk la" (done) and hung up without saying bye...food was just average... nothing really hit the spot...…Read More

, with its reputation and reviews, I had high hopeKudos to the roasted pork, it was very tender, definitely among the tops I've ever had... however, and unfortunately, that was it.we were a party of 10+, so we had a full tasting menu...salads are salads; they're hard to go wrongparma ham tasted great but slicing was poorgrilled squid was alrightcalamari was undercookedthe seafood paella tasted like... it's from a 2nd rated restaurant. rice was overcooked, giant shrimp's was big but soggy and not cleaned properlythe steak arrived cold and under marinated yet the sides were hot Fish was so overcooked it tasted like rubberSangria tasted like cheap mix of reds with fruit punch sodaThe entire meal was so unspectacular I forgot what else we had already.The main problem actually lies in the servicing; the waiter / waitresses were inexperience. At a restaurant like this, you'd expect a certain level of services... it's just not there... perhaps they've recently had a change of the entire staff1. we had to help clean the table so the waitresses can put down new dishes.2. we didn't finished our food and they began taking them away3. they forced us into taking more food so they can remove the dish (like you're at a chinese wedding banquet)4. they have trouble understanding your orders, I asked for "an additionally bottle of water", gave her the empty bottle, and she thought I wanted "boiled" water... they just lack the common sense.bottomline - I wouldn't mind giving it another shot, but it won't be soon…Read More
