    hokkien fried rice
    Winston C.

    Venus Cafe has been our regular spot for HK style food. it's a mash between Hong Kong, British, Portuguese, and more. Staff members are attentive and helpful. We have been many times so what I personally enjoy is their HK milk tea, big brother, pork chop over rice, and hokkien fried rice. The portions are more than enough and they are heavy, so pace yourself.

    Claypot rice
    Tim N.

    I came here because I've heard many great things about this place. I've heard that this is the go to spot for Hong Kong style food. It was very hard to pick which item I wanted to eat because everything was tempting, however, Claypot rice caught my eyes. I knew what I wanted. I like eating food as it's still cooking. I love it when the rice turns crispy. Bonus points for airing NBA basketball. It's not a sports bar, but I appreciate it. I loved talking about basketball with the staff.

    We have breakfast this morning with my family . This is a Hong Kong style breakfast cafe with an extensive menu . We enjoy the rich aroma English breakfast milk tea and the hot lemon tea very much . They brew the tea pot by pot . You can choose the condensed milk ( sweet with sugar ) or evaporated milk ( no sugars you can adjust per your preference) . Breakfast has the Western style : toast , ham and eggs , pork chop and egg , side with freshly made French fried or harsh brown , and greens . Some of us ordered the Chinese breakfast , congee with stirred fry skinny egg noodles , steamed rice noodles , beef brisket stewed . The food portions are generous. I have the fish balls and filet in " Lai Fun " in soup . Lai Fun is a type of round rice noodles with crisp texture. The fish broth is very tasty and there are plenty of fish filet and fail balls . Since today is Thursday , there are lots of seatings . Ambience is cozy and related . Love the interior decoration , with some Hong Kong food pictures on the wall and some cute little things . Good and attentive service . When we leave , the lady staffs all say good bye to us . Looking forward to come back soon .

    Big Brother half and half is a nostalgic meal 4 me
    Victor L.

    Yes, I've seen the prices climb but there aren't many of these Hong Kong style foods so I will pay the premium. For me, it's nostalgic as these are my comfort foods when I seek HK style Chinese food. My favorite is the half/half sauce of baked spaghetti/rice, egg, pork chops, gravy and fried chicken in one dish. It's not the best dish in the world by any means but it's so comforting. Food (4 stars) + Wet chow fun is one of my nostalgic and favorite dishes but the beef is too beefy for my wife. The gravy/sauce has perfect texture and a mild flavor so even picky kids can eat. + Big brother is their signature baked dish. You'll have to wait a little longer since it's freshly baked. They give you a single fried chicken wing but it's huge and very crispy. Half/half gives you spaghetti and rice and I think they also give you red/white sauce. The white sauce is my favorite as it has a little creamy flavor. - Price is a little steep but these dishes are shareable Service/Ambiance (4 stars) + The restaurant is not busy on a Friday night. + We were seated immediately and our foods came out relatively quick. - Wish they refilled our waters more frequent or just leave a cold jug

    Pork chop, sausage with Portuguese sauce
    Susan B.

    Was looking for a place that closes late. Stumbled upon this place and decided to give it a try. They are located in a plaza with many parking spaces that are shared with other businesses. We walked in and was told to grab our own seats. We were then given menu and hot tea. The menu is quite extensive with many selections. We got the beef spaghetti with black pepper and pork chop with Portuguese sauce. The beef spaghetti was way too peppery and there is a kick to it. The pepper overwhelmed other flavors. Spaghetti was too al dente for me. The pork chop rice was too pale. Felt like they didn't bake it long enough. The pork chop however was super tender. Service was alright. Nothing to complain about.

    Big portions! Service was great, no wait to be seated Saturday noon. Authentic food and restaurant was playing Hong Kong shows on the TV! We definitely over ordered because we weren't expecting the portions to be so big and they allowed us to cancel one of our orders. Definitely could've shared just 2 dishes between a party of 3. Will come again!!

    Scallop fried rice
    Michelle H.

    Food was good! The chicken was my favorite part. The radish and peanuts paired so well with the steamed chicken. I would come back just for this chicken. The fried rice was standard good and the lo mein was okay (I think I just dont like this kind of noodle that much). I did wish they had more vegetable dishes but they didnt seem to have any on the menu. Service was good/okay. We didn't really ask for much but they were speedy when we did. Store is kind of small and also very casual. It feels a little awkward to be sitting in the booths because youd be right next to another party and they dont have dividers.

    Pan fried rice noodles with chicken
    Karina S.

    Have been to the SF location and the menu is so massive I feel like I could come here many, many times and not get bored. Tried the - Pan fried rice noodles with chicken - Beef with egg tofu (my friend got this last time and I was eyeing it) Both had very generous portion sizes of everything and this was much more than enough food for two. I loved how crispy the egg tofu was on the exterior and silky on the inside. Very flavorful food and speedy service! Definitely will come back

    Came back to Venus Cafe and the service has definitely improved -- got seated quickly this time which was a nice surprise. They've got a huge menu with tons of options, and while nothing is super fancy, everything is solid and hits the spot. Classic Hong Kong cafe vibes with reliable comfort food. Good place when you want variety and a casual meal!

    Beef Chow Fun
    Lloyd C.

    We met up with some friends for a Sunday lunch, which was crowded. *Big Brother: Pork cutlet, chicken wing, fried egg with red and white sauce on rice and noodles (3/5). A typical Hong Kongese dish. *Hainan Chicken (half a chicken, 4/5) - fully cooked and flavorful served with ginger sauce, roasted peanuts and pickled carrots & daikon. *Beef Chow Fun (3.5/5) - a good classic cantonese dish. The service is always pretty attentive and friendly.

    Beef Chow Fun with Gravy and Veggies
    Elaine C.

    Omggg I can't believe I've never had Hong Kong baked pork chop before! Shoutout to my boyfriend for introducing us. To me, it kind of felt like the Hong Kong counterpart of Japanese curry katsu. I could not get enough of that rich tomato sauce...could eat it straight with white rice. The slightly crispy layer of cheese on top added a savory depth that tied everything together really well. The beef chow fun with gravy and veggies was decent--definitely a lighter version of the classic stir fried beef chow fun if you're looking for something less greasy. The iced Hong Kong milk tea had a strong tea flavor and was a refreshing contrast to the baked dish. Service was friendly and attentive. The second dish took a while to come out after the first one, but we didn't mind waiting. This is a great spot for a casual lunch, especially for those who enjoy bold and savory Asian flavors.

    Baked pork chop over rice
    Ronald L.

    Looking for HK cafe style food. Venus Cafe has been around a while and the quality has not changed it is delicious as usual, you can't go wrong with any of their dishes. The service is great too, they are busy at lunch time. But the wait isn't too long for your food as they have their system down. They have been around for many years and if they are still around this means their food is great.

    Baked Hawaiian and baked pork chop
    Lisa A.

    Growing up in South Bay, I had never knew about Hong Kong style baked... anything. It wasn't until 2019 when I met my now husband. He grew up in the city and started introducing me to all kinds of foods in SF. So we have our 'go to' place in SF and even Vancouver, Canada. We moved in together in 2021, he moved down and we've been trying new places ever since. Imagine our surprise when we came across Venus cafe! We decided to try this place an oh my god the Hawaiian white sauce is so addicting! I don't even remember how my husband's baked pork chop tasted because I was so in the zone with my food. Haha

    Is there any outdoor seating for a party of 4-5?

    No outdoor seating

    Do they use tamper proof packaging (stapled/stickers/etc) for orders via delivery apps?

    No they don't. I eat there often but I am quite loyal with baked pork chop. It's the aluminum container with plastic cover, pretty hot. There's nothing sealed labels like the outtakes.

    Is there happy hour on weekends?

    Yes, it is between 2:30 ~ 5:30pm.

I ordered the Baked Porkchop Over Rice and Salt & Pepper Chicken Wings. The wings were crispy but they tasted a little off and kinda old. This already sounds pretty bad but it gets worse. Let's talk about this Porkchop dish. I can say this with absolute confidence: this dish was pre-made and reheated. My first bite was abysmal. The pork tastes old and the tomato sauce tastes like plastic. I was wondering how I was gonna cut the porkchop with the plastic knife but the pork chop they gave me was so thin that it didn't matter. Once I cut it and checked the middle of the meat I can see it was dark brownish (not how a fresh porkchop should look). The portion was also pretty bad cuz it was served in a go-to tin. I only came here because there used to be another location next to De Anza College but everything here was way worse and I won't be coming back again.

Local Cafe in Cupertino is probably the closest replacement I've found. The menu has that same sprawling Hong Kong cafe feel, with everything from Spam and egg sandwiches and Spam with macaroni to chow fun, congee, baked rice dishes, noodles, curries and more traditional Cantonese dishes. It's the kind of menu where I keep finding something else I want to try. We order from here mostly through DoorDash, although I've eaten at the restaurant as well. Two of our favorites are the shrimp and egg over chow fun and the salt and pepper chicken wings. The shrimp and egg chow fun in particular has become one of our regular orders. Another good option is their 3-entree family combo. There are a lot of dishes to choose from, so it's a pretty good value if you're feeding several people or want leftovers. The food isn't fancy, and that's really part of the appeal. This is Hong Kong/Cantonese comfort food with a huge selection, generous portions and plenty of those slightly quirky Hong Kong cafe dishes that you don't see at every Chinese restaurant. Really glad to have a place like this nearby. If you miss the old-school Hong Kong cafe/cha chaan teng style of food, Local Cafe is definitely worth checking out.

I typically order take out, so I don't have much dine-in experience, but I am always greeted by staff when I come in. There are days where they are busy and the interaction is short but for the most part, I enjoy picking up my order and saying hello to George and his team. My order for the past 2-3 years is as follows: - Level 2 Lamb Mala Pot w/ Glass Noodle - Side Order Lamb - Side Order Glass Noodle - 3 Sacha Sauces (requested at pick up) It's a hefty order that satisfies my cravings for a spicy, hot soup that I can have for 2, sometimes 3, days. The price has definitely increased over the years but I'm not surprised- inflation is crazy right now (currently, gas is as high as $7 / gallon and a dozen eggs are averaging $5 a carton). They have a dine-in discount if you come in at a certain time but I never dine-in to be able to take advantage of the savings. Ordering Wujis is a luxury for me, but it's one that I look forward to and the meal never disappoints. I still have NOT found anywhere that can be an alternative to the broth here and that's what makes Wuji's so special.

One other thing is that they open until 3am, something I don't see often in South Bay. There is also a decent size parking lot as well. While looking through their menu they have an option where you can choose 3 items from their menu and it is only $40.95, they are full size dishes to share. It also comes with their soup too. This is something I'll definitely try next time. This time, I ordered their pork chop with tomato sauce over spaghetti instead of rice. It comes with a soup and your choice of drink but I got an iced hong kong milk tea. Also ordered the curried fish balls and the beef brisket and radish rice plate. The pork chop with tomato sauce over spaghetti was good - wish it had some more sauce in it, but definitely liked the texture of the breaded pork chop baked with the spaghetti. The curried fish balls had a thick curry sauce that had a slight kick to it. The beef brisket with radish had a nice thickened gravy, beef brisket pieces were tender and radish was cooked nicely with a slight bite. The hong kong milk tea had a nice black tea flavor but not too sweet. The complimentary soup wasn't too hot when I got it, but had some pieces of veg and meat in it. Overall, for the price, the portions and all - definitely recommend this spot.

The Seaweed Tofu Pork Soup is honestly not bad. They give a lot of soup for the price, and the taste is decent. I like the seaweed, egg and tofu, but I'm not a fan of the pork.

They have a wide variety of choices to choose from. It looks like they specialize in Rice Noodles, so definitely give those a try! Let me just say everything that you order here comes out steaming hot so it's not your usual cart dim sum style. This was something that I tried for the first time and really appreciated! Some of the things I tried: Steamed pork and taro chunks 4/5 The steamed pork was so juicy and flavorful. They also throw in some taro chunks which I don't typically see, but it was delicious. A classic dish that's definitely worth trying. Thousand year old egg congee 4/5 The congee here comes in a GIGANTIC bowl. This is definitely something to order if going in a party of 3-4. The congee has such a home feel to it and it reminded me a lot of my grandma's congee. This was delicious. The only thing I would ask for is, I wish they had black pepper here, because that would make this dish pop out so much more Egg Rice Noodle 3/5 I saw this and it looked interesting, but it wasn't anything I found special. It was good, but not sure if I would get this again. If you're a huge fan of eggs maybe this dish is for you! Shrimp and chives Rice Noodle 5/5 This was really good, and I would order this again. The shrimp was perfectly cooked and everything was so flavorful with that oyster sauce poured over the rice noodles. I enjoyed this dish a lot, and a perfect order if you're going in a party of 3. Shrimp and chives dumpling 5/5 This is pretty similar to the rice noodle dish. One thing that I have to note is the dumpling was very soft. I preferred this a lot, since my experience with this dish is many dim sum places tend to make the skin of this dumpling really hard. This made it more enjoyable to eat. Siu Mai (Ground Pork and shrimp dumpling) 5/5 This is probably my favorite dim sum order and they nailed this one! When you take a bite into that dumpling, it is so juicy. It carries an amazing scent when you take a bite into it and I didn't really ever notice this with other Siu Mai order's. A classic order, definitely would order this one again. Service 5/5 There service here is exceptional and staff is amazing. Extremely helpful, they brought out some chili oil for us since it wasn't on the table. Food came out exceptionally quick. Everything was awesome! One thing to note, this place is pretty small so you will have to wait outside if you are on the waitlist. Check this place out, definitely a top tier dim sum place if you are looking for quality and price. Everything is very cheap and they also offer affordable rice plates (around $12-13) if you were looking for a quick meal togo!

    Delicious food, kind service, and calming ambiance…read more Ordered wonton mein, fish jook, taro dumplings and bbq pork chang fen. Enjoyed wonton, jook and chang fen the best. Chang fen was silky, smooth and full of lean slices of pork. Taro root dumpling was delicate and fell apart as soon as we attempted to put it on our plates. Flavor was not what I anticipated. Look forward to returning for more chang fen.

    It's more of a 3.5 round up to a 4…read more I honestly can't remember the last time I've had food from a Hong Kong cafe until my friend and I were in the area last week and this place popped up on my Yelp search for food. Located in a plaza, parking is abundant and free. The restaurant is pretty spacious and we were seated promptly on arrival. I appreciate the vast selection of options from each category and opted for their XO rice rolls and porridge. The XO rice rolls tasted great and nostalgic, but the porridge was way too thick. Overall, service was efficient and some of the staff were friendly. Bathrooms were cleaned.

    I've been to Hong Kong Cafe a few times already, but I have to say this is the best visit yet…read more Friday afternoon, the busiest I've seen. The servers kept the service flowing well, despite how hectic lunch time rush is. Our server was welcoming, friendly, & attentive. My friend and I were able to get a round table in the center of the restaurant, within a few minutes. Comfortable atmosphere, a bit loud, but manageable to hold conversations. We ordered the Chinese donut, veggies (which is like pea sprouts with garlic "damu*"), salt & pepper tofu, and baked seafood with the cream sauce & rice. And of course, had to order Hong Kong style milk tea & coffee mix drink "yuen yeung". Everything was delicious! Whoever's cooking in the kitchen did a commendable job today. You can tell they can cook authentic HK food. If you visit here, don't forget to try out their chili crisp hot sauce. It's so good! Perfectly spicy. Had to take a bit home with my leftover food. The dishes are big portions. So, I usually have enough leftovers to take home and save for later to enjoy.

    I haven't had breakfast here for a long time and I was feeling a bit under the weather today and…read morecraving some porridge. I ordered a porridge set with chow mien , satay beef instant noodles with two milk tea for take out. I was surprised how good it was comparing the last time I tried their breakfast. I'm not sure if they changed chefs or ownerships. I would definitely come back more often for authentic HK style breakfast, the milktea reminds me of the ones in HK. I definitely recommend this cafe!

    This New Venus Hongkong Cafe is still one of the best in town for morning big breakfasts. I haven't…read morevisited in nearly a decade. They used to accept only cash which made it inconvenient, but nowadays, they do accept credit cards as well. Love it. Excellent customer service too. I like the friendly and welcoming staffs here. Great first impression after so many years. Authentic Hong Kong foods. If you're coming from the South Bay Area, this place doesn't disappoint. We don't have very good Cantonese HK style cafes that serve good A/B/C/D/etc. breakfasts and most places are overpriced. Good value for good foods here. I paid $16 with taxes included for B-breakfast, so I left them $4 tips. $16 for everything was considered cheap! I had french fries/hash brown/two eggs/chicken steak/broccoli/carrot/etc. and comes with hot beverage of choice. Very fulfilling. Delicious foods with authentic drinks. Everything was generous in portions and delicious, so I ate the entire plate of foods along with my hot cup HK milk tea. No leftovers. Yummy! I'm really loving their big breakfasts now. I do miss all the good and affordable Hong Kong cafe foods. Having excellent service is a plus. Television was turned on with HK news. Loved the old interior vibes and beautiful foodie ads on the walls. There's lots of tables and chairs inside too. All positive. I'll be back.
