Upon entering the restaurant and looking at the menu I realized it was not really a Korean restaurant but rather a HK style cafe with some Korean items on the menu. I ordered the first item on the dinner special which was the hainanese chicken. It came with a tea or coffee and a soup. The portion size was good and quality of the chicken was also nice. Nice and clean environment and friendly staff. Weird sliding door they have installed to access the washrooms. read more

Matsuya - Korean Near Me - Markham, Ontario

A clean and spacious HK style cafe. Some of the items on the menu have a Korean fusion aspect, hence the name of this restaurant, but they don't serve real Korean food! I like that you can get typical HK Cafe items like pork chop instant noodles but on Korean instant noodles (ask for spicy if you want the spicy Korean soup base). The curry fried porkchop omurice on the regular menu is pretty good - I like that the rice inside the omelette is tomato fried rice. The French toast bites also excellent because they cut them into bite size and fried them all around - only recommendation would be to drain the oil better before serving as the bottom pieces were overly oily. Some people don't like their HK milk tea because they prefer a stronger/ more concentrated black tea base, but I actually like that their black tea base is not so strong (too much caffeine makes me uncomfortable). There's room for improvement though as some items are not that great - stir fry black pepper beef noodle was tasteless. read more

Don't be fooled by the name. It's a Hong Kong style cafe. The food is decent for the price. Average food for good value. Service is so so like all good HK cafe. If you live nearby and want some spicy instant noodle for cheap, this is the place. I would make it a 3 star but the name really doesn't match the restaurant. A Japanese name, but a Korean house, but actually serve HK food? read more

Parents heard good things about his place so we decided to go there for dinner. At first when you show up, the name suggest that it's a Japanese resturant. So ok, let's try it. Then once you get closer, the said "Korean restaurant" ok fine, no Japanese, let's have Korean. Then you sit down and have a look at the menu, you go " hum..... This is not a Korean restaurant, it's a hk style cafe". Owner, please, I beg you, read the review, change the resturant name and wording, it will bring you sooooo much more business. This could have been a 4 star review but your name made it 3 star. Anyways, back to the food, the food is pretty good based on hk cafe standard. The deco in the resturant is nice and new. The food comes out nice and hot. I got the steak with egg wrap rice. The Rince is the sauced rice. Egg is done correctly and the steak is pretty good with this dish. 4/5 but that name issue, 3/5..... read more

Honestly, I was not really sure what to expect when I came here, and I mainly picked it due to its proximity to the York Region COVID-19 vaccine clinic (just above). Based on other reviews, I knew it was going to be mainly HK style food, but that is not something I am overly familiar with either. But I was pleasantly surprised. Service was brisk. We got the beef brisket with rice, thick noodles with chicken and shrimp, beef and chicken skewers, and a side order of fries. All the food was delicious! Beef was soft, but there was a lot of maybe tripe or something in it which I don't normally eat. The noodles were hot and fresh and my dining partners really enjoyed the skewers. The food came out very quickly. Ambiance is casual with lots of families. This is a chill place if you're looking for a quick bite. Would def come back here again. read more

3.5/5 This time we wandered out East to check out the Korean name but HK style cafe. It was located in a plaza with Dollerama so I could kill 2 birds with one stone eat and shop. Menu was expansive lots to choose from saw what people were eating and immediately went for the baked chicken rice with tomatoe sauce big portions is what attracted me. Daily soup no choice it was borscht it tasted good but luke warm and comes with drink the typical stuff so my rice was pretty good sauce everything the top was a little burnt but I'll let that slide. Service was standard and staff was nice. If I'm in the area will try again. read more

The name of this place baffles me. It's an HK style cafe that offers Korean dishes. I came for breakfast on a Sunday just a little after 10:30am. There was a lot of people and a bit of a wait. We were seated just before 11:00am. It's a very loud restaurant but it suits the atmosphere. My boyfriend ordered the Fish Fillet Cutlet + Eggs + Sweet Bun ($8.99) with an Iced Horlick and I ordered the Bacon + Eggs + Buttered Toast ($4.99) with a hot milk tea. Our total came to ~$17. The food was standard. I mean, our order wasn't anything complex so it would've been hard to mess that up! The servers were very friendly. However, I am taking off a point because I originally wanted to order the Korean Sandwich, but they told me that it was too busy and they weren't making it at the moment. Subsequently, we decided we wanted to order either a Thick Toast or the Toast with Condensed Milk + Butter but I didn't know what the difference was. I asked the server but she told me that they are too busy and neither can be made at the moment. Again, they were sweet both times and I did see how busy it was, but that's not how a restaurant should operate. Especially if all three items are offered on your breakfast menu. I also wanted to order the deep fried cartilage (one of their specialties) but she told me it was only available after 11:30am and to flag down a server after this time to place my order (this wasn't on the breakfast menu so I understand, but just also wanted to make mention of it). Overall, I did enjoy this and would definitely return. There are a couple of things I saw on the menu that were too heavy for breakfast so I'd like to try this place out for dinner as well. read more

From the name we thought it was a Japanese restaurant... then it says "Korean" but it's not. Really I would classify this place as a HK style eatery that's got a mush-mash of "fusion" dishes. Their HK milk tea is nice. As are their dishes which are generously portioned. The lunch deals are pretty good too. I'm glad to have another option for lunch close to work! read more

Great place for lunch/half tea in the neighborhood. The name is kind of misleading; it sounded like another Matsuda (the ayce) but is actually an HK style cafe. They do offer several Korean-fusion dishes though. I have yet to try those. The restaurant is tucked in the corner of the plaza, right where the Garden Basket grocery store is; lots of parking is available. Once you go inside the restaurant, the servers may not greet you right away because their high counter is packed with stuff so they can't really see you. You'll have to manoeuvre your way a little around the counter for them to see you (unless they're already running around so in which case they'll see you come in). You'll see what I mean when you go there. They are really nice and courteous, though. Service is efficient, which is always great, and it is quite spacious there so coming with a small group is ok. I usually come here for their half tea. There's plenty of options available. You get the basics like noodles and deep fried stuff, including a few new others. My fave here is their (gigantic) deep fried drum stick, and their pork chop bun. The size of the drum stick is probably bigger than the size of your face (assuming your face is normal size). It's so nice and crispy on the outside, while the inside is juicy and tender. The fries that it comes with is also delicious; it's similar to the ones you get at Costco, not the cheap powdery ones. Same is with their pork chop bun. Very juicy and tender, and the bun that it comes on is crispy and soft. Very satisfying. If you're one to watch TV while eating, they have 4 or 5 huge tv's there! Do pay this place a visit if you're ever in the area, or just looking for a bite (or two)! read more

This place was a very lovely surprise! A clean and quiet hk cafe in north east markham. A great addition. Came here during tea time. Saw some ladies that used to work at New City cafe. They recognised us and greeted us. They have many booth seats with plugs to charge your phone. Booth seats are so comfy and offer privacy! A huge plus! A server recommended the fried chicken leg and fries from the tea time menu. We dont usually order fried chicken legs, but we went with her suggestion. No regrets. It was so crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. Server told us fries are the same as Costco. Great experience with good dining experience. Will visit again. read more

Grilled pork neck rice was really good. Grilled slices of tender pork neck topped with sweet teriyaki sauce. Good portion and perfect combination. Good lunch deal that comes with a soup and drink. Friendly and quick service. Nice environment, great place to chill with friends. Menu has a wide selection of options. It is definitely a HK cafe than a Korean restaurant though...very misleading. Great food though! read more

Matsuya - Grilled pork neck rice - Korean Near Me - Markham, Ontario

This review is for the breakfast only, though I'd certainly love to come back and try the lunch or dinner menu (everything is pretty cheap). As others have said, this is a Hong Kong style café, which I personally love because I grew up eating this kind of food. I don't really know how to explain what it is, except maybe saying that it is like Easternized Western food lol. For example, at breakfast, they offer a superb deal where you can get an egg (any style) and meat combo, but the meat will be luncheon meat, deli ham, hot dogs (labelled as sausage... but I love meat in tube form so I was not complaining), or standard bacon, and your bread will be crustless and buttered, but not toasted. Oh, (and I genuinely love this) you also get a side of noodle soup where you can choose the options for noodles (pasta, or rice vermicelli), and and a topping like more luncheon meat, ham or veggies (the satay beef that my husband got was in a super savoury broth and not very peanut-y, my char siu was good too but the broth more light and clear). And, you also get a drink (my husband declared it was an excellent coffee; I had a hot milk tea, and cold milk for the toddler). We showed up at 9-ish on a Saturday morning and it was already half full - by the time we left at 9:50, it was packed with a line forming. I'm not sure if they take reservations but if they do, I'd make one if you're coming at a brunch time. Service was excellent - while not overly friendly, the waitresses were efficient and always passing by. Food came out very quickly and we were able to get our bill and pay right away. They have high chairs, and there is a reasonable amount of space between tables - you're not jam-packed like sardines. It's a clean space, with clean bathrooms behind a sliding wood panel at the back of the restaurant. If you've ever been curious to try HK-style food, this place is a good start! read more

I cannot in good faith give Matsuya more than 2 stars in their current state as much as I love their staff and location. I hope their owner takes note of constructive criticism to improve their restaurant drastically. VENUE/AMBIANCE (3 stars) This is a fairly large sized restaurant located in the corner of the Garden Basket plaza on Markham and 16. Probably seats 40-50 people. Parking is abundant. They have several TVs that simultaneously play CP24 (Is there anything else they can play???). As many others have noted, this clearly Hong Kong style cafe has a Japanese name and calls themselves a Korean House. I have no idea who's doing their branding but nothing makes sense. They should really just pick one cuisine and stick with it. SERVICE (3 stars) Courteous staff uncharacteristic of Chinese establishments in the Markham area. Everything else is slow. Food was slow. Drinks were slow. An afternoon tea that could have easily taken 45 minutes took over 1.5 hours! We were starving by the food arrived. It's been several weeks since they've opened so I expect their kitchen staff to be running smoothly by now. Also, after taking our orders, the waitress came back with utensils (fork and spoon). We all ordered noodles, so I'm not sure how they expected us to eat this. Apparently it's their policy to provide forks and spoons every time. (Why?) FOOD (2 stars) I ordered a "Korean Style Pork Chop Instant Noodle". First, I don't know where they got Korean from. The soup base was a watery pork bone soup. The pork chop was over-marinated and too sweet and too salty at the same time. The instant noodles were just instant noodles, not even shin ramyun. There were no veggies or other seasoning. I barely finished half before I gave up. Their pork belly ramen was disappointing as well. Whose idea was it to serve unseasoned, hard boiled eggs with the ramen? Pork bone soup base was bland and watery as well. I will commend them, however, on giving three slices of pork belly. The iced milk tea was standard offering. I will note drinks are not included in the dinner menu. Patrons have to pay for drinks individually, on top of their already pricey meals. QUALITY/VALUE (2 stars) Afternoon tea is around 7.99 (+ $1 for cold drinks), which is around the same as other HK cafes in the area if not more expensive. Dinner menu is ridiculously expensive for quality. I don't think this location or their food quality warrants the inflated pricing. OVERALL 2.5 stars read more

Do yourself a favour and do not come here when it is busy. Been here twice now and even during a lunch on a weekday , I have had the worst experience. My wife's food was cancelled and we weren't told, after checking in twice with them were told we are busy and it is coming. An hour after I received my food and finished eating I went up and demanded an answer to be told sorry your food was cancelled. The worst part was they said "don't worry we won't charge your wife for the soup and drink we gave her". No remorse , no service. You are better off going to the new restaurant across Mount Joy GO called Mount Joy Station Cafe. read more

I was really excited when I heard that a Korean restaurant was opening up on the north east end of Markham - I could grab some kalbi short ribs or satisfy my bimbap urges without needing to head to North York... But after several visits, I'm sad to report I'll probably still need to be making those treks. First, don't be fooled by the sign that advertises it as a "Korean house". Despite the window signage, it's a Chinese diner that has 75% HK diner food. Fine. I like HK diners, but is it any good? After eating here 3x in the week it's been open, I can honestly say: meh. Let's start with the good: nice modern decor, big tv flat screens, lots of tables, etc. The menu is extensive with familiar items of traditional HK cafes, as well as some "Korean - style dishes". I also like how the booths have USB power outlets so you can charge your devices. Now the bad: I tried their sizzling steak and chicken combo and it's generous to say it was underwhelming. First, the soup was supposedly a seafood bisque - it would be more accurate to call it Brown water with cornstarch to thicken it. No amount of salt or pepper could ressurect any sort of flavor. The steak and chicken were fine but then the complimentary ice cream was melted upon delivery. Wtf? On a later visit I tried the bbq pork and egg with rice. Very standard for HK diners: slices of bbq pork laid over rice with a fried egg right? Not here. I got a BBQ pork omlette, which was fine, but a kind of surprising take on a classic. And in all time there, service has been abysmal. I'm use to Chinese level service trust me, but I practically have to beg them to get a refill on my tea, check on the status of my dish, or bring me the bill. They're not busy either! They just aren't trained to care. My final conclusion? This place has a lot of potential. The food is fine and the prices aren't bad...unless they serve melted ice cream again. I'm going to make the generous assumption that the fubars I experienced are growing pains. I'll give it another go in a month to see if they got the bugs worked out. read more

At first with the store name, I thought it was a Japanese place then I found out is a Korean fusion kinda restaurant, however it seems to me like HK with some Korean fusion type of cafe... I came on their first week opening I believe since I saw all those bouquet of flowers.... I was greeted promptly and was sat at one of the table in the spacious cafe.... I ordered the grilled pork chop with Korean ramen and chose my Milk tea as my drink of choice. It took over 25 mins for my order to arrive, it wasn't even pack so I guess just really slow service. The food was ok, nothing too special to be honest, however, this location is like 5 mins walking distance from my house, therefore it's not too bad! Since I have a very close HK like cafe now to the addition when I don't have a car! I only got to try one thing so I cannot comment much about how good they are except for what I ordered, the soup was good, the ramen texture wasn't soggy, the best part was the grilled pork chop, was really soft and well flavoured. I would give it a 6.5/10. I would come back again to try some of their lunch specials. Improving their service time or faster deliver the food to the table might improve a lot. Maybe food presentation wise as well, seen some come out not as pretty as in pictures. read more

3.5/5 Matsuya is owned by two ladies who used to work at New City before their management changed. Despite the name, it is a HK style cafe restaurant foremost, with some Korean and Japanese elements to some popular HK style dishes. I went here twice during my recent visit, once for lunch and once for happy hour. There's not really a lot of food options during those times, though AFAIK there's more options for dinner. The first time I had the sliced pork belly ramen, and the second time I had the grilled pork chop in soup with Korean instant noodles. I found the ingredients for both items to be really good, but their noodles were overcooked both times. Obviously nothing compared to their Japanese and Korean counterparts, but for less than $10 it did its job. Iced lemon tea also reminded me of New City in the past couple of years; the first time it was really good, the second time they didn't use high quality tea. Service can be slow here. The first time it took almost 20 minutes for my order to come out, but the second time was faster. The Northeast area of Markham is lacking in HK style cafes, so overall this place is a welcome addition. Definitely won't say it's the best in the city though, but a good neighbourhood cafe nonetheless. read more

Although this HK cafe style restaurant has not been around very long, it is already extremely popular with people coming to eat at all times of the day. If you want to avoid the lineup, come during weekday lunch or dinner times. There aren't many restaurants in this area like this one so it has been long awaited by residents! The price is very fair for now, with lunch specials from $7.99-10.99 and afternoon tea for even cheaper. I recommend trying the Korean Kimchi Udon for afternoon tea as it is quite unique and delicious! The Marshmallow Toast is also, but really sweet and they use Nutella, so don't get it if you are allergic to hazelnut. I will definitely become a regular here as it is a great option for a fast meal. read more

Matsuya - Marshmallow Toast (Afternoon Tea) - Korean Near Me - Markham, Ontario

Speed Read: 1) Nicely furnished HK style Café with large TV 2) ~$10 for Afternoon tea with tax and tips 3) Honey Garlic Chicken Wing - so so. 4) HK style tea - Too bitter and weak aroma. Afternoon Tea - I want good HK style tea!! Fail! I was disappointed with the so-so tea. Tea taste is too weak, yet more bitter than usual. Honey Garlic Chicken Wing 1) Freshly deep fried. 2) I didn't taste any honey....maybe sugar syrup? 3) I don't know how to make the best HK style honey garlic chicken wings, but I remember I had better one elsewhere. 4) $10 with tax and tips....a little too much in my opinion. Up your quality and I am more than happy to pay more than $10. The shining part of this place is the furnishing and nice big TVs (3 of them). I feel very comfortable enjoying my afternoon break. The only problem.....why CP24?? Isn't there anything better to show? read more

Don't let the name fool you - this is actually a Hong Kong style café. Nicely decorated with great food. The vegetable soup is flavorful with tons of veggies and is thicker than average. Meat Sauce Spaghetti - not baked, and the cheese is sprinkled parmesan, not melted, but nonetheless delicious! Baked Pork Chop Rice - pork is juicy and tender. The sauce is quite sour, BBQ-sauce style rather than the pure tomato-based version. Fried rice base using a shorter grain rice. Portugese Beef Rice - really good, can taste the coconut in the sauce! Satay Beef Vermcelli - good French Toast Bites - the bites are huge, more like large cubes, covered in condensed milk. Outside is crispy, can taste a bit of the oil; Inside, some parts are soggy, but overall a good dish to share. Hot Milk Tea - personally i think this could be stronger & milkier. read more

Went there for dinner. It was busy, I guess a lot of ppl want to try it out. Got the Korean meat rice in the stone bowl and a Korean hotpot. The Korean meat rice in the stone bowl was good, it is not spicy, they give u hot sauce to add. The Korean hotpot ($16.99) is overpriced with limited ingredients, mostly cabbages in the pot, not worth it. Overall, food is good, price is average, ambient is good, service is slow. read more

First off I'll say that this place has AMAZING decor for an HK cafe. It's clean and beautifully decorated. It's very modern looking from its purple seats to its flower decor. I'll skip the Japanese, HK, Korean thing since its already been more than established by other yelpers. The menu items are pretty much the same as any HK cafe, but some of the typical classic dishes have been swapped with some Korean and other fusion ones. We ordered from the happy hour menu; spaghetti and fried pork chop with fries. The food was really good. I wasn't expecting the spaghetti to taste that good, but then again I almost never order spaghetti at an Asian restaurant. The shortcomings of this experience were due to the bbt, and service delays. While the staff was friendly, food took forever to come out. It felt like there was only one waitress and one cook. My gf got her spaghetti 20 minutes before I got my pork chop. It was not a happy wait. Aside from that, their bubble milk tea was terrible. The milk tea itself wasn't too bad but the taste was off, and the pearls were chalky and stale. That was pretty unsatisfying since HK milk tea is one of my favourites. In the end, I'd probably come back. The food was good and the atmosphere was nice (not noisy like most HK cafes). They just need a little bit of tweaking. read more

Service was extremely lacking and even though the place was half empty on a weekday during peak lunch hours. I had heard great reviews about this place, so I came in with high expectations. But I found the prices to be average, not that competitive considering other HK style cafes in Markham/Richmond Hill. The food was extremely underwhelming, with small portions and poor quality of food. The rice used in both of our meals were just plain white rice and the amount of protein was also very little. There was a small slice of preserved carrot but that was all the vegetables in our bowl. The other items on the menu were quite pricey for a simple lunch and it tries to be "Korean" and "Japanese" but it's just a HK style cafe at the end of the day, trying to diversify. read more

I remember coming here a long time ago and recall the food was very mediocre so I never thought to give it another try. I was in the area getting groceries and decided to order the spaghetti with meat sauce and cheese. The lunch combo comes with a daily soup and a lemon tea/water or milk tea. Plus, they're giving 10% off for cash take out orders. My combo came up to $10.30 taxes in. For a large portion, and the food was surprisingly quite good, I'm glad I gave it another shot. read more

For a HKer, this place is for comfort food! The name "Matsuya" (a Japanese name) and description "Korean House" are misleading if you're not used to HK local "cha charn teng"culture, which started from East meet West (when the Brits ruled HK Chinese) and developed into a mish mash fusion of pan-Asian culinary delights. I've tried various dishes like satay beef noodles, beef brisket curry, baked pork chop rice, milk tea ... tastes just like how they should be and satisfies all my cravings read more

We heard that this restaurant recently opened at the old Italian Nonna's Restaurant. Thought we would give it a try. Not sure if the service is usually this slow, I'm gonna chalk it up to it being the long weekend. But seriously, since when does a lunch at a small Chinese cafe take over 2.5 hours?! It's not really Korean, maybe a tad influence with the kimchi fries... Anyways, food was alright. My only complaint is the food didn't come at once. We got a meal every 30mins. So my party of three had to watch the other person eat while waiting on food that seemed to never come. Which sucks when you are hungry. We ordered the fried pork bun sandwich (3/5) pork and steak on sizzling plate with spaghetti (4/5), honey garlic chicken wings and fries(4/5), and a Korean minced pork rice (3/5) bowl. The prices were decent, ranges from $7.99-14.99 for their lunches. Make sure you come to this restaurant with patience, otherwise you'd be fuming when you leave cause the wait time is seriously ridonkulous. read more

I came here 3 times so far and I have to say it's okay. Nothing extremely good but I do think the food is okay and the restaurant is very clean. I like that there's outlets in the side seats. I feel like the price is decent; most main dishes were around the $10-$14 price range. And if you order from the smaller menu I think it's a "combo" with a soup and hot drink I plan to go quite a few more times since some of the pics from yelp users look so good xD read more

It's more like a Hong Kong style café, but add a hint of Korean flavour... like using korean instant noodles instead of regular instant noodle Familiar faces as many staff are from New City Restaurant, but New City is way better!!

So, I nursed an adult baby grudge against this place because we saw the sign long before it opened and prematurely celebrated a korean restaurant coming to the area only to realize that it really isn't authentic korean. It's an HK style cafe with korean influence. Eventually, we did try it....twice now. Darn it, it's good. The interior is clean and bright. Booth seating has electrical and USB outlets. We've tried: Baked Portuguese Chicken - a little too saucy and coconutty for our taste Spaghetti with meat sauce and cheese - thumbs up from the kiddo Pork chop ramen - nice broth, a lot of noodles and meat. Also has corn and a boiled egg Steamed chicken - good Beef with udon - a little sweet but generous helping and tasty Friendly and quick service. Lots of parking available. read more

Food is ok and location is key as there aren't many similar HK Breakfast spots around Markham Road. Be aware that takeout orders are subject to $0.50 charge for "containers" and then an additional $0.50 for Credit/Debit for purchase under $10 (sub-total). In a day and age where everyone is on the go, I find this frustrating to say the least. read more

Very attentive staff serving your typical HK cafe fare. Food is tasty and portions are very generous.

The best value meal there is their morning specials of Hongkong style breakfasts. For just $6.99 you can get any combinations of eggs, sausages/ luncheon meats, toasts, milk tea, and a big bowl of spaghetti/rice noodle/macaroni in delicious bone broth and your choice of braised beef, luncheon meat, or sausages...the combinations seem endless and I can't see myself getting bored with them! A friend of mine highly recommended this place and I was not disappointed! All the flavors are satisfying and I was truly stuffed and still feeling full till the early evening. The service is quick and friendly. You might have to be prepared to line up a bit if you have more than two people coming in. The wait is worth it and table turnaround time is pretty quick as well. One of the best Hongkong breakfasts around! read more

Matsuya - Duck breasts (little portion on the dish and lots of rice but the flavor is good) - Korean Near Me - Markham, Ontario

Having frequented the plaza where Matsuya is located, I wanted to give this place a try after seeing their cheap prices on the menu! The breakfast combo was only $6.99 and contained bread, eggs, bacon, noodles and milk tea so I definitely wanted to check it out. However, one thing I must say (like other yelpers below) is that this is not a korean restaurant. It is a HK style cafe that contains certain fusions so be careful! [LOCATION] Located near Cora's and a big Garden Basket, it may be hard to spot but there is tons of parking. [SERVICE] As any typical HK "fast-food" style restaurant, the servers are fast and straight to the point. Food comes out right away. The only downside is that this may create an unpersonalized visit. Furthermore, because most of the servers speak cantonese and limited english, language barriers may exist. [PRICE] Breakfast is VERY cheap. I've attached photos to see what $6.99 can get you -- and because of that, the place is packed on weekend mornings! Wait times are normally 10 minutes to get a spot. Also, note that the breakfast combo comes with a variety of choices for drinks, soups and mains. [TASTE] Because of the cheap price, the food served is not out of the ordinary and tastes just like a simple HK style breakfast. The milk tea was nice, the bacon was good and the eggs were done well (albeit kind of runny). Note that this meal can get oily!! However, my macaroni soup only tasted like salt which was disappointing :( On the other hand, my mom's vermicelli was pretty good! Overall, I would come again if craving a simple HK style breakfast for a cheap price and fast service. read more

Had been seeing this place in the corner of the plaza for a while, and it finally opened! As with all grand opening places, do expect to have a little patience with the wait time as it does tend to get busy (which is a good thing!). Servers were very nice and experienced. None of them are standing there just idling. Everyone is also on their feet moving around. The ambiance looks refreshing and cheerful. The food was very good as well. My favourite has to be the Red Braised Pork Belly with Rice ($8.99). If you are into fatty food, this is perfect for you. The Seafood with Fusilli in Rose Sauce ($9.99) was also very flavourful and the presentation of it looks great. Can't wait to come back and try more of the menu. Would definitely recommend! read more

First time going to this restaurant, I had the worst experience in both food and service. If I could I would give no stars. My friend even called ahead of time to ensure there were space for two adults and two babies with a stroller. Having that in mind, they gave as a booth, no room for the stroller or room for them to serve us. It was one or the other. They asked me if I can strap my high chair on the booth. Most high chairs can't be strap onto a booth that I know of. Then they finally realized and moved us to a different table. So we put our babies at the new table. One we settled at our table, they forgot to bring us the menu. When we place the order the lunch specials, they didn't even asked us what soups we each wanted. After the food arrived and started eating, I found a long strand of hair that in my food. My friend asked the waitress to come and we told her about my food. The waitress took my plate away then she came back and ask me exactly " so do you want a new plate or what?" She was very rude about it. I decided to get a new plate. Can't honestly tell you if it was truly new or not. After that, you just don't want to eat due to the uncertainty. I only drank my beverage that it came with the food. I was left hungry. I would never go back there. read more
