Went here on a Wednesday night and we were seated right away. We ordered baked pork chop over rice, sizzling pepper beef spaghetti, beef stew over rice, and the lamb chop dinner set. All the dishes were really tasty. We've been to this place a few times, and every time the food quality is good. I'm glad they still provide complimentary garlic bread and soup! Definitely planning to come back again.

Warning: This business is cash only, cash only, cash only!!!! I had a terrible experience here. After I paid, a young female employee took a drink that I had already purchased directly out of my bag without asking for my permission or offering any explanation. Once an item has been paid for, an employee has no right to remove it from a customer's bag. Because this business only accepts cash, I could not dispute the transaction as I could with a credit card. I'm sharing my experience to warn other customers: carefully check your bag and receipt immediately after paying. The name "YUKI" appears on my receipt, although I cannot confirm whether that was the employee involved. I hope management reviews the security footage, investigates what happened, and provides a reasonable explanation. Until this issue is properly addressed, I will not return or recommend this business.

Very authentic hongkong style restaurant. Delicious food and friendly staff. Hainan chicken is my favorite!

Named after a popular chain fast Hong Kong style food restaurant. This little Hong Kong style cafe brought me the nostalgia of Cha Chang Tang in the malls of the local housing estate in the 90s. There are a vast variety’s of Hong Kong style dishes with a cheaper afternoon tea set option at $13.50 which included a drink. The portion of the afternoon tea set was generous enough which fills up my husband’s huge stomach. Sauce of the backed black pepper chicken smelled just like what we had in Hong Kong with fried rice, though my husband said the cheese made it a bit too salty. My dish was a unique stir fried salted fish and chicken rice noodle, which was a mixture of egg noodles and rice noodles I have not seen in other places in the Bay Area. The salted fish was just right though I think more chicken would be appropriate. The portion was so big that I shared with my husband and still have one full box to take home. The overall service was excellent cus the server offered me the option of warm water or ice water when she knew I’m not ordering any drinks. After an hour, we had the after taste of MSG that made us extremely thirsty, but I think this is somewhat unavoidable in the majorit

This is my new favorite restaurant in Newark now. Everything about our lovely lunch was an enjoyable experience. The service was kind and patient with my mom and I as it was our first time here. The spring rolls, potstickers, black pepper beef bell pepper rice plate, pork chow mein, seafood fried rice and red bean icey drink was delicious. One of the servers was an amazing singer on karaoke and the staff all eats together family style. It’s a laid back and fun atmosphere. Would return with friends, family or dates in the near future. 😊❣️👍✨
