★★★★★ 5.0 Norman Virut Graw · Oct 2025

Excellent food. Can get very busy late evening, so please do come early. This place cook authentic Chinese food. We ordered rock cod steam fish which was extremely fresh and not too salty. They have live crap and fish in their aquarium as well.

Nice hot porridge on a cold night warmed my body. We had the century old egg and pork porridge, flavorful but not salty. It was a good balance for adding other side dishes into it. Portions were huge. Enough for 2-3 to share.

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Kimberly Iwamoto · Oct 2024

I heard from friends in Hong Kong that this restaurant is delicious, so I came to try it. We ordered create your own one porridge, and we chose the topping by ourselves. We chose fish fillets, beef and mushrooms, and it was delicious with fried dough sticks. Other dishes like seafood fried noodles and beef tofu were pretty average. The less happy thing is the service. I asked for pepper and he told me to get it myself, most of them are sour face . After they charged my credit card , they are so hurry want to take away the receipt while I am busy for packing my food … Price is little bit high here , 4 items around $98

We love this place - our to-go for simple comfort food. Our favorites are Salt and Pepper Fish, all their Braised dishes like braised goose, braised tofu, Chiu Chow favorites like Oyster omelette or their porridge or their clay pot dishes. They get really busy so definitely must make a reservation!

★★★★★ 5.0 Cali Native V · Oct 2021

Our Cantonese friends say this is one of the better places in the area. All the dishes were very good and satisfying. Sauteed frog was scrumptious. Shrimp and crab porridge was enough for 4. Fried rice was perfectly seasoned and garlic cabbage was cooked perfectly. Service was very attentive. Expect a wait weekend evenings. Also recommended is beef chow mein and roasted goose.
