Pork cutlet sandwich with fries
Mei C.

Was in the mood for HK style snack and decided to drop in for a bite. Was able to grab a table for dine-in; Ordered the fried pork cutlet sandwich combo (comes with fries and HK milk tea), and square HK style French toast. Food came out promptly and warm- I especially liked the one bite french toast (peanut butter and condense milk drizzle)-tasted decadent. I also liked the sandwich, though the fries tasted just alright. The HK style Milk tea is a must (customers adjust the sweetness). Menu also has a varieties of breakfast combo deals and brunch menu as well. This is a popular spot in the area-expect a bit of a wait during the morning.

Came here after coming back from HK. We got here around 5:55PM, good amount of time before they closed at 7pm. We got seated as it wasn't busy and got to ordering! We got the mixed sauce rice rolls with fish balls, curry pork cutlet rice, imitation shark fin soup, and the French toast. The cutlet was pretty good, nice flavor and kick for a cold night. The fresh toast looked crispy, but was actually quite soggy with ok flavor. The soup was too thick, but good taste. The food was generally ok but we were turned off by the experience there. Before we got seated, we asked if they were still open to not intrude on them closing and they assured us they were. As we were ordering and eating, there were staff cleaning up and mopping the floor. Cleaning up made us felt rushed as if we were holding them from leaving, and mopping the floor near us with a bleach product was not the best in terms of scent mixed with food. I felt they could've waited till we left (we ate quickly and left at 6:35, prior to their closing time).

Instant Noodle Soup with Satay Beef (Beef in Peanut Sauce), which did not have much peanut flavor and didn't taste that great.
Johnny W.

Overall a 3.75/5. Let's start with the good. The noodle soup where you can choose your own soup base was quite delicious and jam packed with a generous portion of ingredients! My wife also really liked the sharkfin soup, which she said was more flavorful than the one from Kowloon. The seating was spacious and comfortable, and the interior design was reflective of your typical cha chan tang. Now onto the not so great. The corned beef egg sandwich had plenty of egg but very little corned beef, which basically made it taste like just an egg sandwich unfortunately. The satay beef was also not that great and lacked the nutty and creaminess that classic satay beef often has, which was the most disappointing for me for that dish was what I looked forward to the most. The red bean ice drink was quite heavy on the ice and since the red bean wasn't blended, most of the ice trapped the red bean and made the drink less than average. The staff weren't that sociable and seemed to keep to themselves in the back area. Water is self-served so there's really minimal interaction with staff, but their lack of smile just made the atmosphere less enjoyable than it could have been. Overall I believe High Five has potential of being another good HK style cha chan tang in Brooklyn, so I hope they can continue to improve certain selections while maintaining consistency on the items that they are doing so well in. I will definitely be back to try some of their other dishes nonetheless. Thank you for reading and best of luck! (:

After my recent trip to Hong Kong, I was really missing the food and came in with high hopes. Unfortunately, the food ended up being just average and the atmosphere made the overall experience disappointing. We ordered the steamed rice noodles with fish balls, imitation shark fin soup, French toast, and the fried pork cutlet with curry sauce. Imitation shark fin soup 3/5 - The flavor was good, but it was much thicker than expected. French toast 2/5 - It looked like it would be crispy on the outside, but it turned out soft and slightly soggy. Fried pork cutlet with curry sauce 3.5/5 - The pork was not very crispy and had a very thick starch coating, though the curry sauce itself tasted good. This dish could have been great if the pork was crispier. The meal also came with a Hong Kong milk tea, which was pretty solid. Steamed rice noodles with fish balls 4/5 - My favorite dish of the night. The flavor was great and the fish balls had a nice texture. I just wish the sauce was a bit thicker so it would cling better to the noodles. As for the service, I know tips are optional and everything like utensils and water is self serve so I did not expect much. That said, the staff started cleaning while we were still eating. They close at 7 pm and we arrived at 6 pm, but by 6:05 they were already mopping and moving chairs around us. The strong bleach smell and the rushed feeling really killed my appetite. Overall, this was not a great experience and I will not be coming back.

French Toast / Steamed Rice Noodle in House Special Sauce / Instant Noodle Soup with Satay Beef / Toast and Scrambled Egg
Ally L.

Quality: 9/10 everything was piping hot and cooked well. Instant noodles were not soggy, beef was tender, and the rice noodles were the best I've had since visiting HK. Variety: 9/10 a lot traditional HK dishes to choose from which is why we got so many dishes for just the two of us. Atmosphere/Cleanliness: 8/10 clean restaurant with Cha Chan Tang style seating so if it gets busy it might be hard to seat big groups of 4 or more. Service: N/A they have a sign stating tipping is optional which is similar to cafes in Hong Kong, but they did seat us and take our order almost immediately. Food came out within 10-15 minutes. Price: $30 including tax and tip

We are always looking for Hong Kong style tea cafes that serve our favorite type of brunch, Cha Chan Tang style. And we think the taste of High Five was close to the places we love in Hong Kong. The stuffed vegetables reminded me of the ones you find at street stalls in Kwun Tong. The mixed sauce rice rolls were similar to the ones I had in Cheung Chau. The French Toast bites were such a highlight and had to order my childhood favorite, red bean ice!

Chin T.

Staffs were friendly. There is a lot of seating, however, I had to wait a little bit because the place was packed for brunch on Thursday morning. The breakfast set was $8.25. The satay beef tasted good however it was only a couple of pieces. It came with a hot drink, toast and eggs which definitely fills you up. Also, double check the bill when it comes; the waitress ended up giving us the wrong bill which was our neighbor's. Food: 4/5 Service: 4/5 Ambience: 4/5

Came here for an early dinner / late lunch type of thing with friends and grandma. Approved by grandma! There is an extensive menu and the prices are really good! If you come for morning, there's breakfast sets. We tried a couple items but highlights: the Hong Kong milk tea was good, the curry fish balls not bad, the cherng fun with peanut and soy sauce was good, fried Shu Mai, and the baked spaghetti with the chicken cutlet. I would definitely come again.

I live in the area and discovered High Five recently. I think I found my new favorite HK spot! I was greeted by Fion and she was so welcoming. She recommended their best dishes and I got the set meals that come with a drink. Everything here is fairly priced and the portions were pretty generous. The HK Milk tea was so good and woke me right up. The baked spaghetti was next level and I had leftovers to take home. The satay beef instant noodle was also pretty tasty as well. For apps, the peanut sauce fish ball rice noodle was bomb and condensed milk french toast was perfectly sweet. I'll definitely come back with my family.

Steamed rice noodles in house special sauce-good
Ada W.

Came by for lunch with my sister. Food was decent. Ambiance is bright and spacious. We ordered some food to share. One thing i should warn u in advance is do NOT order the "curry triple delight". For $6, its NOT worth what your getting. Its literally 4 fishballs, 1 piece of tripe and 1 piece of pork skin. I wish i ordered something else instead had i known how little i was getting. Rice noodles with house special sauce- pretty good! Rice noodles in Dry mala sauce with beef slices- delicious! We really enjoyed this one. Hot HK tea- my sister enjoyed it Red bean ice- it was ok! Overall, we had a decent lunch. Service was ok, nothing particularly stood out on service.

The 3 treasures
Helen C.

No bells, no whistles, you get what you pay for, and hopefully you'll enjoy what you ordered. There's a big TV that's always running news in Cantonese, a self-help water station if you want to call it that, and many diners that zoom in and out. You'll find yourself almost rubbing elbows no matter where you sit unless you're at a booth. It can get a bit tight and you might bump into the other patrons and/or their food. I sincerely wish they have coat hooks considering how cramped spaces can be; we were holding onto our winter coats on our laps while we ate. The HK canteen menu items makes us want to return; the tea is a yay, the coffee is a pass, and the food is a thanks. See you when we see you!

If you're planning to come here for a quick rice plate lunch, you might want to look elsewhere. The beef was tough and chewy, which is surprising since most Chinese spots use the velveting technique that keeps their proteins super tender. The green scallion sauce was fine but overly salty. You can get the rice plate combo with a drink for $12, which seems reasonable until you realize the drinks are just canned sodas, and options like coffee or milk tea cost extra. I went with a cold honey lemon drink that was about 60% ice, and it added another $2.25 to the combo. I also added an egg for another $2, bringing the total to $17 2!which was not worth it. Maybe most people come for the Hong Kong breakfast combos, but for lunch, the rice plates just don't hit. The only bright side is that it's a no-tip establishment, and the food comes out quickly.

Pork chop sandwich
Holly C.

A quick serviced Hong Kong style cafe that offers comfort food. We ordered their satay beef instant noodle set, pork chop sandwich, baked pork chop rice and baked spaghetti with meat sauce. The satay beef instant noodle was flavorful and legit and had peanut chunks from the peanut butter. However, the sunny side egg still had some uncooked egg whites and one of the yolk was broken. Their pork chop sandwich was my favorite. The pork chop was marinated well and tasty. It was also crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. The bun, although a little burnt, was nicely toasted in which the outside was crispy yet chewy on the inside while also absorbing all the juice from the pork. I was however disappointed with their baked dishes. The baked spaghetti with meat sauce hardly had any meat in it. The spaghetti was a little over cooked, and the sauce had no depth to it and felt like it was just ketchup mixed with water. The cheese was as also extremely overpowering. The same sauce was used for pork chop rice except it had a little more flavor to it from the veggies and the pork chop, which was also nicely done as I assume it's the same pork chop as the sandwich. Cheese was also overpowering so we ended up scraping them off. We also ordered iced lemon tea and salted lemon 7 up. Their lemon tea tasted legit. The tea flavor was strong and it was wasn't too sweet. Their salted lemon however, was a little weird as the lemon came in slices versus the smaller whole salted brined lemon that were used to. The staffed assured us the lemon is salted but I didn't taste it at all. The restaurant was clean, spacious and comfortable for Hong Kong style cafe standards. Service was quick and the staff were attentive. They do take credit or debit cards but there is a $20 minimum. There is no extra service charge. Overall, I think it's a good place to go to their snacks and breakfast options. I would stay away from their baked dishes.

TL;DR version- Some high highs and some very low lows. Hot Figs was a fun app. By a mile, the soups…read morewere the favorites, so I would recommend the Pepián or Caldo Tlalpeño Rojo. Nice happy hour and a large chocolate drink selection I was at this unique Guatemalan (ish) restaurant a while back with one of my groups. I said "ish" because the menu has dishes from all over, ranging from sandwiches to BBQ ribs to Guatemalan and Mexican soups. It's out there, and even though not everything works that well, it's fun, and if you can't find something you want to order here, you probably shouldn't go out to restaurants. There was also live jazz music that night, which was loud but nice to listen to. Since it was happy hour, a bunch of us got drinks. I went with a maracuya margarita, which was decent; someone else had a jalapeño margarita, someone had a beer, and someone had a mojito. There were a few nice hot sauces on the table, with the red one reminding me of salsa macha as it had a smoky kick and a spicier green sauce reminiscent of ají verde. They gave us some complimentary blue corn chips and a very mild black bean dip, which was tasty enough and hard to complain about, as it was free. From the appetizers, we got the Hot Figs for $15.95, consisting of honey goat cheese, corn tortilla chips, and plum + pumpkin seeds. This was a unique and fun blend and reminded me more of something you would find in a wine bar. The mix of sweet and salty, with a bit of crunch from the seeds, was nice. This was good, and I would recommend it for a table rather than for a solo diner. There was also The Zingy Salad for $21.95, featuring zucchini spirals, yuzu, tomato, onion, cilantro, pumpkin seeds, and a jalapeño infusion. $18.95. The salad was fine with a bit of crunch and a mild spiciness. It was fine, though a bit wet, for lack of a better word. The best dishes of the night were the soups, which each had its own distinct flavor profile. My sight presence went to the Pepián for $21.95, consisting of chicken, pumpkin/sesame seeds, green tomatillo, cinnamon, cumin, black pepper, carrots, chili coban/pasta/guaque, and potato + rice. There was plenty of tender chicken inside, with the soup having a nice roasted flavor with some spice and a bit of sourness. The potatoes and rice on the bottom added more sustenance to this dish. Almost equally delicious was the Caldo Tlalpeño Rojo for a dollar more with shredded chicken, tomato, black pepper, garlic, onions, peas, chickpeas, corn, achiote, chipotle, Monterey jack cheese, and crunchy blue corn tortilla chips. By comparison, this was a bit heartier, with the melted cheese and shredded tortilla chips inside, similar to soups found in Mexican cuisine. While I also liked the mix of veggies a bit more in this one, as it added a bit more texture, I still slightly preferred the flavor of the other soup, as I usually prefer a bit more spice. The rest of the food was fine. The TPC sandwich for $19.95 with chicken, peanut butter, coconut cream, ginger, cilantro, pickled carrots, and lime was fine. For the number of ingredients, I found it a bit sweet, likely from the cream and the peanut butter mix. The bread was nice, but it also fell apart. It came with a nice side salad with a good vinaigrette. The most expensive at $24.95 were the Slow Cooked BBQ Ribs, consisting of baby back ribs with rice and beans. The ribs were almost a bit too tender as they lacked any bite, which was nice, but the sauce was a bit too generic tasting, reminding me of Sweet Baby Ray's or something similar. The rice and beans were standard. This was also OK. Next came some dessert. There was first the $12.95 Rosemary Churros served with dulce de leche & chocolate dips. While I'm not sure if it worked, the rosemary did add a unique smell and a bit of flavor, and at least it wasn't generic. The churros themselves were hot, and the sauces were standard, with my preference being the dulce de leche. I also ordered a Champurrado for $7.95, which was fine. It wasn't as thick as I expected, though perhaps the style is a bit different than the champurrados I rarely buy from Mexican street carts. The chocolate flavor was very nice, though, and I like that it wasn't too sweet. Another person got a $4 Alfajor, which I got a bite of, which was standard. This place is a bit hard to rate. The two soups were wonderful, I liked the appetizers, and I found a couple of the other dishes just OK. Overall, it was a good meal, but I'm not craving to go back. This would be the perfect 3.5, but I'll round up as that doesn't exist.

Every table has a placemat with crayons which is such a fun way to keep kids and adults entertained. The food was delicious and tasted fresh, living up to their messaging on sourcing local food. We ordered the egg katsu sandwich and the eggs rothko. The sandwich was very well made with a nice crisp panko crusting that didnt feel heavy on the oil, and yet still managed to have a light airy egg inside. The eggs rothko was buttery and flavorful but still managed to not feel too heavy. The broiled tomatos on the side were a nice touch to contrast the egg and toast from the main dish. Overall I enjoyed this place and would love to come back to try more dishes. The vibe was friendly and welcoming, making it the perfect weekend brunch spot.

If I were to do again, no sausage, I don't believe you need it for this sandwich. The chocolate milk is regular. - 4/5 Value (1-5): For what I got, I believe it is overpriced, even though it tasted really good, I don't know how many eggs are used to create the egg katsu, but $17 seems like a reach. There are other items on the menu that cost the same price but will make you feel more full. 3/5 Customer Service (1-5): The customer service was attentive and nice. 5/5
