The milk tea is the best out of all the items ordered. As for the curry fish ball, pig skin and turnip,the curry sauce is very good. Pig skin is too soggy. Hardly can be spotted in the dish. The baked rice and spaghetti dishes was good. The tomato sauce is quite HK authentic. One of the better one to be found in all NYC HK cafes. As of the stuffed French toast, probably would not order again.
A must try HK style cafe, a lot a lot a lot better than those HK restaurants in Chinatown or Brooklyn. Surprisingly delicious and cannot wait to go back again to taste other dishes. Also, staffs are very kind and feeling homey.
everything was delicious. their hong kong milk tea and coffee milk tea is legit, tastes like I'm back in hong kong
Wow, so amazing to have this gem on Staten Island! Food is fresh and so nicely cooked. Nothing too greasy or too salty, everything was perfect. Service was top notch and all the staff were so welcoming and friendly. Definitely will be coming back for some HK french toast!
I have heard many good things about this place and finally got a chance to try this place tonight! Must try the wings (egg york or salt pepper), Hk toast and the milk tea (hk style). We also order the satay beef fried noodle (my all time favorite), baked porkchop rice and salted chicken. They did not disappoint! The portion is bigger than I expected. I would try the off menu “pineapple bun”, beef chow fun, beef brisket, and sweet sour spare rib on my next visit 😋.
Probably the best 茶餐廳 I’ve eaten at so far. That means yes, I’ve tried all the 茶餐廳 in Chinatown, 8th Avenue Brooklyn, and Bensonhurst, and I still gave this place 5 stars. Queens is too far for me so I can’t speak for that and if you’re reading this review…that’s probably true for you too.
One of the owners, Raymond (aka Oyster Cookies) makes the best Hakka style chicken I’ve had. I highly recommend trying it! He comes from an OG spot in HK and that was one of the dishes they were best known for. He reverse engineered and then tweaked it into his own version.
Other stellar dishes include the Kyoto Pork Chops & Tomato Beef rice. Portions are generous and not overly greasy - you’ll find more protein than other spots. Their cream of mushroom soup is the best I’ve had. It’s not watered down cream.
They have a bar too, if you’re interested in alcohol.
FYI- You can order whole chickens given time in advance (a few days at least) for special occasions
This place is a godsend for Staten Islanders. 10/10
Free delivery is available if the minimum is met and destination is close (under 3 mi). Paid delivery can be had for farther destinations on the island.
I tried the Hakka chicken after reading some positive reviews. It’s just OK. Nothing is commendable about the seating or decor. It’s a place for a quick bite or brunch, not comfy spot for chitchat. However, I am still very grateful that we can have a HK style cafe on SI so close to home. They have the most authentic HK style milk tea/coffee milk tea I have ever had around NY. The fried beef chow fun is also decent. Definitely will go back and try other dishes.
Me and the boys decided to try something different and we felt like Ramen was a good crave for the day and we randomly selected this location and considered it a jackpot.
Raymond hooked us up because we left with more than just Ramen. We added a seafood boil which included Snowcrab Legs, Shrimp, Crawfish, Potato’s, and Corn. The sauce he suggested was what made the boil even better. A good feed for 3 btw for the $45 Seafood Boil.
The Ramen was delicious and we made sure to ask for double Pork Belly because who doesn’t like extra meat, pause.
We also had the Grilled Squid and Fried Calamari which the sauce to the Calamari had an amazing kick.
We all agreed the food was slamming and we will be coming back to get a larger order if all the guys come through. I personally want to come back to try the Sushi on our next order.
