REVIEWER # 4…read more Pompompurin Café, I am so disappointed in you! You looked so tasty and good from the outside. Your restaurant's décor is very attractive! My friends and I were so excited to try you and once we got our food....everything went downhill from there. Let me explain... This place has a good theme to it, reminds me a little bit of Hello Kitty Sweets in Taiwan. The inside interior of the restaurant is adorable. If you are a Sanrio fan, you will truly love this restaurant! The café is located in a basement like location in a shopping center. You have to walk down pretty steep stairs to get to the restaurant. As you walk down, you are distracted by a Pompompurin story of him and his friends all related to "friendship", which is the main theme of the restaurant. I have to give praise to the creators of this restaurant because it is unique (I haven't seen nothing like this in the US) but I have to say that it's an immersive experience for diners and offers a menu where dishes look too cute to eat. MENU: Menu offers a wide variety of different food options. For their dinner menu they had Burger and Fries, Pasta, sweet and sour rice plate and taco salad. The sweet and sour rice plate was bland and needed more flavor. It was also socked in the sauce, which was not that appetizing. They most well-known popular items on the dessert menu are the Bagel Special Pancake Tower which is $149 HKD. It also comes with a friendship cup. At the time me and my friends came, the restaurant had ran out of friendship cups however they give you a coupon for a free cup so you can come back and redeem your offer. On the dessert menu they also have Tiramisu and Pumpkin Pudding all ranging from $49-79 HKD. They also offer some tasty drinks such as the Cookie and cream caramel pudding latte, hot chocolate and marshmallow latte. My friend tried on of the drinks and said it was really delicious! FOOD: Food on the menu looked really interesting. They offer spaghetti, burger and fries, taco salad. My group of friends all ordered something different so we can taste each other's food. The burgers and fries came out first and was a cute presentation as the burger had a smiley face on it with a little hat and a couple of fries on the side. I ordered the taco salad plate which was so-so. I liked the presentation of the food, it was really cute. (I am still trying to figure out what they used to design the pictures on the food). Anyhow I didn't like the chips that were provided with my dish. It tasted like Doritos chips and they were stale as if it was sitting out for a long time. CUSTOMER SERVICE: I have to say that all though I wasn't happy with the food and the cost of the dinner, the customer service was amazing! They really do take customer service seriously. I remember my group walked in and we were a group of 7 and the waitress was saying that she didn't have room to accommodate all of us. The waitress wanted to break our group up and have us sit all different tables but that wasn't an option. After a while of speaking and reasoning with them, they finally made room for our group within 10 minutes. The waitress we had that took our order spoke both English and Cantonese so it was easy to communicate with her. Overall, I would recommend you come here to see the presentation of the restaurant and the food. However, please note, that I do not recommend their food. Sorry Pompompurin Café. REVIEW 225/196

I wanted the pork burger & chips and iced cappuccino but was told they had sold out of both so I chose the clam spaghetti and the ice coffee. Mum had the clams too and aunt ordered a risotto style dish. The spaghetti came in a small dish and we both had 5 clams each! Aunt thought her dish was wrong but assured by waitress it was what she ordered so she ate it. It didn't look like the photo! It was fine, though it took us a while to order so I waved someone over. It was a shame they had sold out of things, not sure what time they close. We saw other tables had ordered afternoon tea which looked lovely, we thought we should have tried that instead!

Stopped by for some french/American inspired sandwiches, since I didn't like the asian mayonnaise and butter sandwiches that my uncle eats. Nor do I like the asian cheap ham in my sandwich. I have up low quality when I graduated high school and left that cheap cafeteria food behind. The sandwiches are okay, but for HK, and if you want a taste of Europe or the USA then they are more than okay because they remind you of home. So, when I was looking through which dessert to get, the lady at the counter said their macaroons are well know. That sounded like a challenge so I had to try one. Wow, that one macaroon turned into 20, as I wound up buying a whole box and eating it all before I reached the end of the street. They had coffee flavors, coconut, etc, and they were all delicious. I couldn't stop eating them. One of the best macaroons I've ever had, and I don't even like macaroons!!!

In the day it becomes a dining cafe while in the night it turns into a cocktail/drinking bar. Nice restaurant concept which captures both sides of the target group with its day and night duo concept.

Spotting lots of caucasian who bring their kids here. Their food is average but what captures customers most is probably the breakfast menu they serve, along with a newspaper stand, dads seem to love it!

Waffles We ordered the vanilla ice cream waffle and strawberry & ice cream waffle. They were light and weren't too sweet. However the waffles were kinda burnt. They are different dips you can put on your waffle. Honey, condensed milk and strawberry jam. It seems like they added matcha powder on top of the waffle which is good. 2. Buffalo wings with blue cheese dip I loved it, it was spicy and delicious. The cheese wasn't tasty for us so we didn't eat the wings with it. 3. Chicken spaghetti with pesto sauce I like how light the sauce is, it was tasty and well made. However I would suggest them to spice up the chicken more. Add spices or flavours to it. 4. Strawberry Milk Tea This is a must to try, I loved it and it wasn't too sweet. It had whipped cream and tiny marshmallows with a wafer.

Not overly sweetened and tasting of nothing but perfectly ripe fresh fruit. We also ordered one brunch and one main. Oeuf Meurette French style eggs cooked in red wine with chicken & bacon and Barramundi roasted with lime & tomato, served with smashed potato and rocket. So delicious, both. Portions were generous - 2 soft boiled eggs in the breakfast and a large cut of fish in the main. A tip: if it looks full, check up the stairs. There's an entire upstairs dining area! Will be back.

This place shot up to a 5 for me based on eating a meal there last night. $251 HKD for two meals, a side of sweet potato fries, a glass of wine and a latte...kind of a huge value and really very good! So we popped in because we wanted something other than our standard dai pai dong up the street and/or sushi options and this place is very local and close for us. They have special that with every entree order of over a $100 you get a drink for $1. Shut the front door! My husband ordered a super cheesy grilled cheese sandwich from their grilled cheese options. I ordered a greek salad with some smoked salmon. We also noshed on some sweet potato fries. We then for a $1 each, my husband had a latte and I enjoyed a glass of red wine. The fries were hot and really good. The grilled cheese was of ample size and super cheesy. The Greek salad was a touch too simple (needed a few more olives I think to punch it up), but evenly coated with dressing and fresh. The desert case is also packed full of great looking cakes, bars and cookies and worthy of a repeat trip (prices in the case range from $68-88). They advertise a special of like $98 for a glass of Prosecco and a dessert! It appeared some couples were wandering in to enjoy this just as we were leaving. Around 7PM when we arrived on a Friday, the place was not busy at all (which I know is bad for business, but preferred by us!). It was nice to sit with the open air on the first floor and simply enjoy our time. They have upstairs seating as well and it is closed in, the downstairs part is more open to the outside elements when the weather is nice. I walk by this place almost every day and the busy feeling of brunch on the weekend or packed lunch crowd during the week is different than the quieter evening vibe. The staff was friendly, welcoming and absolutely accommodating. For $251 and a good quality meal, we will absolutely return sooner than later.

The Le Grand Pokka Cafe has a nice atmosphere to it, and is accessible for those not entering past security. We waited about 25 minutes for our dessert to arrive - which was very disappointing and frustrating as we were on a time crunch. The service was slow and there weren't many people around either (it was about 4pm when we arrived). The Halzelnut pillow toast on the other hand was good! The toast itself was well-done- perfect crispyness on the outside and softness on the inside. The Halzelnut icing was not too sweet either, and the ice cream on the side was perfect to complement. However, I wished they out the ice cream on top of the top, and added one more scoop since the ratio of ice cream to toast to icing was off. Good, but not great overall.
