    Service was exceptional, upon arrival they greet and sit you down. The food is delicious, from breakfast to lunch. My favorite dish for breakfast is the peanut butter french toast and for lunch brisket noodle delicious nice vibes too

    We live in this neighborhood so this is usually our Saturday morning breakfast spot for my family. My son is in love with the steam rice noodle roll (tsang-fun) because it's made fresh here. 2 orders of pork tsang-fun is his main breakfast and then he'll eat a bowl of porridge and then an egg and be done. They package these HK breakfast combos with a hot drink, tsang fun, and porridge for $14.95. I usually get the chicken steak/2 eggs/toast/drink for $13.95. My hubby gets the fish fillet/2 eggs/pineapple bun/drink for $13.95. There's usually leftovers for lunch. We know the waitresses Annie and Kelly that's how often we're here. Sometimes the food is so-so (new cook or regular cook is out) but the tsang fun always seems to be solid.

    I had lunch here with my siblings. It was not too busy, but was getting a bit loud. It is a good place for breakfast and lunch. They have specials. Complementary refills on lemon iced tea. Place is Clean and have a friendly staff. Rating: 3 1/2 Stars

    French toast was good. Their breakfast menu provides excellent value. Their tomato baked rice however was not as good as before. Perhaps an off day or change of recipe. Coffee milk tea and lemon ice also lacked flavor on this recent visit.

    Saw a post recently about their salted egg yolk chicken wings so I had to check them out! Love salted egg yolk anything. They did not disappoint! So delish outside and the wings were so moist and tender! Loved it! Steamed rice noodles were excellent as was the beef chow fun! The wok hei was . So good I kept wanting to eat more. Loved the on choy (hollow stem veggies) cooked in a spicy fermented tofu sauce, had a little kick. The scrambled eggs with shrimp were cooked to perfection! Shrimp was not overcooked and eggs were moist and fluffy! Baked sole filet rice was huge and cheesy! So good. Everything we had was excellent! Definitely recommend this place for dinner. Sorry I forgot to take pics of menu. Too busy chatting. Service was good too. Restaurant is nice and roomy with high ceilings and nice decor. Great parking too! Plus it's free!

    Lunch special 11am-5pm allows phone takeout $11.95-$12.95 +$1.99 Ice Teas!! Usually lunch special is dine-in, but they do allow take-out!!! Rice is included if you order from entree B section. Takes credit card. Located inside Taipei Center, with underground parking. Their lunch schedule is not the best but it is affordable. Their lunch special menu might be smaller than other MPK canto restaurants but they are the cheapest in decent string beans, fried pork chop and cod filet though. We ordered $12.95 Items that include white rice: - Deep-fried Pork Chop With Spicy Salt. This dish is a must!!! Huge portions!!! And done decent. - Sauteed String Beans. This was decent. We'd order this again as our veggie dish due to being more of a string beans dish person vs bok choy. - House Special Pork With Preserved Vegetable. Eh. Not bad but not something for us. - Cod Filet With Black Bean. Okay. I can't complain since I like cod filet. There are $11.95 Noodle soup dishes but unsure if this place is good for soupy items? Their $12.95 Baked items looked promising though, typical canto cafe dishes. Next time, down to try $11.95 items like C1. Beef Chow Fun C8. BBQ Pork Fried Rice C9. Hainan Chicken Rice Or $12.95 items A6. Grilled Chicken Steak with spaghetti (vs rice). Tbd on what sauce but mushroom or black pepper are common picks vs garlic. B3. Salted Fish and Diced Chicken in Tofu Clay Pot. B8. Bok Choy with Garlic (if we aren't craving string beans). ---- For lunch specials in MPK area, we've rotate between these places. Ultimately we prefer takeout, reason we would consider Longten Cafe and Fuxing Springs -- 1. Taste of MP. Priced higher but offer higher quality. Don't allow call-in lunch special take-out. Their sauteed to certain fried dishes are all better than the other 2 places below. Dishes like $12.99 string beans, walnut shrimp, $14.99 Bitter Melon. $14.99 Seafood Chow mein with gravey, $15.99 Intestine dishes, etc. Their lunch special is full and filled with every typical lunch special dish...clams black bean sauce, beef tomatoes, fish flets ., tofu, etc. They aren't good with their sweet sour, eggplant sauce dishes though. But if you're picky like most 626 canto eaters, then the 2 restaurants below might not be for you. Our senior parents like going to Red 99 or nearby another place for their lunch special instead...which are always packed with a wait. Taste of MP isn't on their radar too. 2. Longten Cafe. Medium tier priced and quality. Limited menu. - $12.95 fried pork chop, string beans, cod filet black bean sauce. TBD if any bake dishes with spaghetti or hanian chicken would be worth getting too next time. 3. Fuxing Springs. Cheapest in quality. But I guess we'll order here if we're going super cheap, and wanted to load up on more veggie type dishes. - Good for $9.99 L19. Bitter melon with chicken. Maybe $9.99 L25. Beef with string beans (not sauteed type, steamed). - I've yet to try other items like $11.99 L7. Stir fry Choy Sum with garlic, $13.99 L26. Beef and Broccoli. Or $14.99 pan to steamed fish. Their sweet, sour, or eggplant saucey stuff aren't good. 4. Last resort fast, affordable takeout (Chinese fast food) from Jiu Hao Can Ting. No lunch special but closes late at 9pm. Real Chinese fast food, not American Chinese fast food. They are probably better for their cold appetizers.

    One of the lesser known HK cafe spot in the SGV. My favorite place for their baked items. Pricier items compared to other places but the quality makes up for it. The baked pork chop rice comes with a beautifully broiled cheese on top. Crispy and has a tasty sauce. Good ratio of sauce and rice. Standard pork chop pieces. Good service and quick with refills. The pork with preserved egg congee. Came out hot. RIce it self didn't have much flavor but the pork was flavorful along with the preserved egg which carried it. Spacious cafe with underground parking. Was quiet for a Tuesday night dinner. Would come back for the baked items and to try their other stuff.

    Black pepper beef udon
    Vanna T.

    Haven't been here for a while. Ordered the seafood and bean curd clay pot, deep fried fish filet with spicy salt, salted egg & minced pork clay pot rice, and black pepper beef udon. The dishes were good, but the minced pork & salted egg clay pot rice wasn't as good. It lacked flavor and didn't tasted like a clay pot rice. The fish filet was very yummy and our favorite dish. There was only 1 server since there weren't that many people, but it was a nice, friendly, and quick service. Some of the items on the menu have changed, but they haven't updated it. You will need to ask the server upon ordering. It was pretty empty and quiet with only a few tables. Food and prices are still good tho so will definitely come back.

    114. Baked Pork Chop in Tomato Sauce / 紅汁焗豬扒
    Brandon S.

    I came to this restaurant looking for one thing and exactly one dish only, baked pork chop rice. I have been scouring all of san gabriel valley for the best pork chop rice comparable to what I grew up eating. The baked pork chop rice was more fried rice than sauce and pork chop. There wasn't much pork chop to begin with and wasn't the thicker kind. The fried rice at the bottom was pretty tasty but the lack of tomato sauce made it taste dry. There just wasn't a good balance of sauce to pork chop to fried rice. It felt like a 2:1:5 ratio. My must pair with a baked pork chop rice is a lemon iced tea. Their lemon iced tea was way too sweet for my liking. Even after adding more slices of lemon, the sugary-ness was too strong. It did not pair well with the baked pork chop rice. Overall, I came with high expectations after being told this place specializes in baked pork chop rice. It did not live up to the hype and I was slightly disappointed. My search continues.

    141. Seafood and Bean Curd in Clay Pot /海鮮豆腐煲
    Maria L.

    I have been coming back to this restaurant many times because I like their food and prices. The waitress was very friendly and helpful. We had chicken served with ginger and green onion sauce, beef chow mein (Hong Kong style), seafood with tofu in clay pot, fish fillet with vegetables and spicy salt chicken wings. All the dishes we ordered were delicious. By the way, If you like your chow mein noodles crispy, tell the wait staff you want Hong Kong style chow mein with crispy noodles. If you don't like crispy noodles tell them you don't want crispy noodles. You can order it the way you like it. At lunch time, you can order coffee, tea or half coffee half tea for an additional $1.99 (special pricing). A very good deal. You can get one free refill. The dining room and restrooms are nice and clean. Plenty of parking underneath the restaurant.

    My #1 place to eat is Longten Cafe!!! I love this place so much. The food is just phenomenal and I would highly recommend this place for anyone who just loves to eat and eat. The service here was hands down amazing! So kind to their customers and cooked the food to perfection! The ambiance was nice and cozy. We wanted to watch something on one of the TV's but it was broken. But that's okay. 100% highly recommend this place and that I would definitely come back here.

    Order this. Apparently the best in town according to the moms.

    Five stars!! This place deserves to be busy on a Tuesday night. The white fish with black bean sauce, amazing. The steamed salted fish patty with ginger, even I liked it...tge french dtyle strak cubes, tender.. .the portions are generous...the food is hot....everything authentic and delicious. Parking is free, underground...don't take the surface street entrance, go below. The dining room is spacious and open....our 80 and 90 year old moms love this place. Bring yours.

They are located next to the Jade Plaza on Garvey Ave in Monterey Park. I parked in the plaza's parking lot, but I'm not 100% sure if they truly are part of the plaza. They may not be. Please read signages. Limited street parking. Upon entry, the lady behind the counter was attending to another customer. When it was my turn, she took my order quickly. She seemed friendly, but not the most smiliest. They are known for their Shrimp Wonton Noodle Soup so I got one of them. I saw Preserved Egg with Shredded Pork Congee so I had to get it, too. Lastly, I noticed another customer with an order of Black Sesame Paste... must get an order of that because I love black sesame. I decided to dine-in instead of take-out. This place isn't huge at all. It's a mom and pop whole in the wall very casual establishment with about 4 tables and some chairs. Definitely not a spot for large parties. Now to the food... Shrimp wonton noodles was quite authentic and deliciously good. Broth was light and clean without the msg flavor. Noodles were crisp and had a bouncy texture to it. WOW, wontons were the best! Good amount of quality pork and shrimp filling that was quite flavorfully seasoned. Loved it! Definitely recommend to all wonton egg noodle connoisseurs! Just one itty bitty gripe, portion was small for the price of almost $12. I felt I only got a few good bites from the bowl. I would still get it again though. I'm a sucker for great eats regardless of price LOL. Congee with tasty shredded pork and slightly salted preserved eggs was warm and savory with a soft silky texture and mild comforting flavor. I haven't had such an authentic congee in such a very long time. This is must get every time! It was worth the almost $10. I should have ordered one to-go... for sure next time. For the black sesame paste, this one was a bit of a disappointment. It was cold and not hot. Liquid was very thin. I'm used to thick black sesame. Taste was horrible. It was like eating expired black sesame grains. Did not like it at all. Will not get again. I almost tossed the whole thing away, but ended up adding some pre-packaged flavorful black sesame paste I had at my home pantry to thicken it. Afterwards, it tasted more decent like black sesame should taste. Will I be back? Yes, I'll be back for the wonton noodles and congee plus to try their other authentic Chinese dishes. They sell frozen wontons and dumplings, too. I will have to buy a bag or two of them next time. Thanks Hong Coffee & Bakery!

    Parking 5/5 -Big free parking lot…read more Service 5/5 -We were seated right away and staff was professional, efficient and friendly. Restaurant was not busy at the time, our food came out pretty quickly. At the end of the meal, they offered to help pack our leftover food along with sauce, superior service. Food 5/5 -Deep fried salted pig feet, this is a MUST get. I cannot emphasize enough how well executed this dish was, the pig feet came deboned. Skin was thin, crispy but still had a delicate layer of gelatinous fat under that's so addicting and great pairing with the complimentary pot of white rice. The meat was so tender and flavorful, the seasoning is not overwhelming but tasteful enough that keeps you wanting to go back for more. Great portion for sharing, however you may not want to share and just keep it all for yourself. -Salted fish and garlic chicken fried rice, rice was fragrant with the delicate saltiness from the dry aged salted fish. The dish is a combination of fine bits and pieces of fish, chicken and notable amount of ginger. I'm usually not a fan of ginger but I actually liked it for this dish, brought a comfortable level of sharpness to it. But if you really hate ginger, you might want to avoid as they're really fine pieces and would be impossible to avoid. -Sliced beef with Chinese broccoli, beef was tender and full of the wok flame flavor, vegetables were fresh and crunchy, no notes. Ambiance 5/5 -Restaurant was super quiet, I really liked how calm it was in there. Mostly comfortable booths around the perimeter and tables were all separated by clear dividers. My favorite was the bathroom's decor, it felt like an early 90s metal/futuristic ocean theme.

    I've been wanting to try this place for quite a while, and we finally made it there for dinner…read more Someone had recommended coming for lunch, but unfortunately we didn't make it for lunch. Let's start with the lobster. They have about 45 different ways you can have it prepared. We went with the traditional style without the noodles. We just couldn't justify paying another $20 for noodles, and honestly, I don't think we missed much. The lobster had plenty of flavor, but compared with other Vietnamese lobster restaurants I've tried, it wasn't nearly as flavorful as I expected. Considering we paid around $180-$200 for the lobster alone, that was a bit disappointing. We also ordered the Vietnamese-style fish with black pepper. The fish was good, but again, not as good as other Vietnamese restaurants we've been to. We wanted to try the pea shoots, but they told us they were seasonal, so we ordered the garlic string beans instead. They were good and nicely garlicky, but nothing that made me say, "Wow!" The standout for me was the French-style filet mignon. It was cooked almost medium-rare, with lots of onions, and the flavor was really good. That dish came closest to earning five stars for me, although the portion was smaller than I expected. Our total bill was around $380, so for that price, I was expecting something much more exceptional. Service was fine. They changed our plates and took care of the little details, and luckily it wasn't very busy when we went. I've seen pictures of lines out the door, so I honestly don't know if we caught it on an off night or what the hype is about. Was it bad? No. Was it good? Yes. Was it wonderful or better than the other Vietnamese lobster restaurants I've tried? Unfortunately, no. I'm glad we finally tried it because I had been curious for a long time, but would I come back? Most likely not. For all the hype and the price, I was expecting a lot more. I'm giving it 3 stars--good food, but not the amazing experience I was expecting from one of the top-rated lobster spots in the San Gabriel Valley. Parking is good.

My partner only eats seafood so I ordered their tofu seafood hot pot, and xo sauce seafood fried rice, these were both good. 4 out of 5.

However, most of the items on the menu were not available.. strange. My aunts friend wanted to take us here specifically for the fried garlic crab. However, personally, I was not a fan because it's just too much work to break down the crab just for a little bit of meat. My favorite that night was probably the fried tofu. They definitely did that very well. We also got a lot of other dishes like the clay pot rice, chicken, clams, seafood crispy noodles, and other foods I can't remember. Overall, just okay for me. I don't think I would necessarily come back.

    We went to SCAL last month and of course we have to stop our all time favorite spot JJ, parking can…read morebe challenging during the day and some nights, their food is always hot the spot for us, my son always like to try something new so he had the baked pork chop over fried rice. My younger son and I are their die hard fans of their jumbo size mix grill platter, it is always wholesome, tasty and irresistible taste that hit the spot, paired with their iced lemon tea made my day!! Service at JJ is decent and they can get very busy during lunch and dinner time. We also ordered and tried their Singerpore style turnip cake, man the flavor profile is so good, the curry flavor with the flavoring dried ingredients combined together for the ah ha moment why this is one of their best seller!! I recommend this place if you love HK style cafe

Inside was spacious and had plenty of seating. Service could use some improvement in terms of friendliness and attentiveness. Lunch special was such a good deal! All the dishes are under $20 and there was a good variety of dishes. It's nice that it's daily 11am-5pm and it comes with either rice or spaghetti and coffee or tea (with one refill!). Got the Grilled Pork Chop & Chicken Steak ($14.25) with mushroom sauce. Love that there are a nice variety of sauces to choose from - black pepper, mushroom, onion, garlic, spicy garlic, or teriyaki! The pork chop and chicken steak were huge and very crispy. It was packed with flavor and not too salty or greasy. The meat was very tender and juicy. I was very impressed with the portion and how delicious it was! The complimentary Iced Tea was very refreshing but slightly too sweet but it was nice that it came with a free refill! Overall, I really enjoyed the food and would definitely recommend and return!

Upon entering, the cafe was getting warm and stuffy, making it slightly uncomfortable. The restaurant was much more comfortable when the air conditioner kicked on. Opted for the beef brisket wonton noodle soup. The portions were gigantic, especially the generous portions of noodles. The wontons were flavorful and the beef brisket was tender. The hot milk was decent too. Their fried chicken wings are a perfect snack for long-haul trips! Service by the staff was cordial. ~$28/head after tax and gratuity for breakfast with tons of leftovers!

Once spending is confirmed, get your passport card stamped by that location. After all 4 stamps are collected, you may redeem for free selective food. I was on it! This Hong Kong Cafe - Garvey location is near Garfield Ave in Monterey Park. They are right next door to TS Emporium. Limited parking on the side of restaurant. Funny, I drive by this place all the time. I never knew they are same as Hong Kong Cafe - Atlantic until now. Well, they aren't exactly the same. This spot is much smaller, but its interior still has that Hong Kong feel to it. Their menu has a good selection of food items. Prices are reasonable. I phoned in my order for 1 Seafood Chow Mein and 1 Red Bean Shaved Ice. I wanted ice cream with the red bean, but they didn't serve it with ice cream which was a bummer. Oh well. Total bill was barely over $20. Perfect! Got my 2nd stamp. Thanks! Lady staff was nice and friendly. My order was ready upon arrival. Seafood chow mein was good, but seafood portion was small. Red bean shaved ice was tasty, but cup size was small. Maybe everything is small because it's a small location. Who knows. Honestly, I don't see myself coming back to this location. Still glad I gave them a try. Good luck Hong Kong Cafe - Garvey!
