Alice’s Kitchen - Temple City

Looking for a taste of Hong Kong in the SGV? I checked out Alice’s Kitchen in Temple City and it really feels like dining on the streets of Hong Kong. The ambiance is super cool, with fake storefronts and shop signs that set the vibe. The menu is large, with a mix of Hong Kong cafe classics and Cantonese dishes. My friend ordered the fish maw soup and I had the baked pork chop rice. Both were delicious, generously portioned, and very reasonably priced. Service is standard for an HK cafe.

I came here yesterday for lunch with my parents and ended up being really impressed. Alice’s Kitchen might just be the best Hong Kong-style cafe in the SGV. We ordered the baked pork chop over pasta with tomato sauce and cheese, salt and pepper squid and wings, and the salted crispy pork knuckle. Everything was delicious. The baked pork chop was comforting and flavorful with a nice balance of sauce and cheese. The squid and wings were crispy, well-seasoned, and perfect for sharing. The pork knuckle was the standout for me. Super crispy on the outside and still juicy inside. That said, the portions are a bit on the smaller side compared to places like Delicious Food Corner and some other HK cafes, especially given how good the food is. Service was amazing because they kept coming over to

The ambience really does give you a vibe of Hong Kong.. we were just in Kong Kong in Feb 2025 so coming here does gives up this feeling.. now about the good. We like the seafood tofu pot very much.. spicy pork chop was good and the chicken pot as well . The black pepper beef pasta was mediocre.. not crazy about the spaghetti.. not much beef ..

Foods ok. Service was not good then it got even worse. When we got to the restaurant, we sat ourselves down, I got us a menu. No one came to us to serve until I wanted to order. The bill was $42 and I left no tips. This one server asked me “Why you don’t give me tips” I was like the foods bad. It was, the noodles I only took a few bites. She kept pressing on WHY WOULDNT I GIVE HER A TIP. I am not going to tip if you just order my food and bring me the food. She also never checked on us. Btw I am from Hong Kong and this type of service is worse than HK lol.
