Back in undergrad, I would often go to a Hong Kong cafe called Shooting Star Cafe in Oakland, and that place always hits home. My usual order was either baked pork chop rice or baked seafood rice, and since moving down to OC, I haven 't found a place that actually serves the dish, until now The sole reason that I (plus my friends whom I lovingly dragged with me) came to this place was because of the fact they had baked seafood rice. In short, everything we ordered (pictured below) was delicious and hits the notes just right for a Cantonese/Hong Kong cafe. In particular, I would like to highlight the following things as my favorite parts of the meal. 1) HK Style Lemon Tea (not pictured becaus...
Cross post Time went : 9:20ish am on Saturday. Dine in. It was raining this morning so I can't imagine how much busier it might get in good weatherService: served and cleaned very fast. Chinese cantonese speaking but I was able to order in EnglishTip: not for a single person unless you're really hungry! Serving sizes are a lot bigger than I expected!! Share size!! Long review text When we got there, it was shortly after opening and it was already full. We were the second in the wait list. But got seated probably about 15 minutes afterwards. Place is about a standard cafe size. It was full of friends and family members chatting as a background noise.Food was really delicious and hot. There wa...
Great breakfast special in terms of value! My mother chose this place for mother's day breakfast and at 10:30 in the morning there were several parties waiting outside to be seated. After a little wait, our table was ready and the breakfast menu was short and sweet, which made it easier to make a selection. On one side were the combo specials, the traditional congee options or the HK western style spam/eggs/toast options. Each entree was roughly $10-$11 and included not just the entree but also a side dish option (eg pineapple bun, chow mein, rice roll, etc) as well as coffee/tea/milk tea. The backside had an assortment of Chinese and HK western style appetizers/small dishes as well as noodl...
food was good, but better after adding additional flavors: the spicy chili on the Thai-style seafood fried rice and vinegar on the beef tendon noodles. beef tendon were quite soft and tender. the Spanish coffee was very good. staff were friendly and helpful. would likely return to try their other dishes. was told that the rice rolls are not available after 2pm.

The egg noodles had bad chemical smell, I told the staffs twice, but no any response from the staffs. My daughter ate almost all the egg noodles cause she was hungry, and told me something was wrong, she felt stomachache, and I tasted the egg noodles and soups, it was not the taste like what should have , don’t want to go there again…….
This Hong Kong-style restaurant offers traditional dishes, including red bean ice drinks and Hong Kong-style milk tea. The portion sizes are average, but the flavors can be a bit salty. They do have a daily special that provides good value. Overall, I would rate the food a 3 out of 5.
Finally... When I open my English only mouth I DONT feel like like my business isn't welcome. Excellent menu, Excellent service, Great food. Don't feel rushed to order. Will definitely return. Wish hours were later but won't change my patronage. Thanks
The crispy stir-fried noodles are absolutely amazing. They have a wonderful texture and are coated in a delicious sauce. Be sure to dine in, as I doubt the texture would hold up if you order it to go. Food: 5/5

Food is good. Price is fair. But just had one Taiwanese couple told my son to lower down the iPad volume that made me has no clue, because this is Cantonese cafe……..strength people
