Went there with party of 4 on Sat evening. Good thing we had reservation. They were pretty full and people without reservations were turned away. We did have to wait before they sat us but it wasn’t too long. It’s a byod place so bring your own .
Parking was difficult – but that’s typical in downtown Chinatown. Recommend the calamari appetizer that was made just right. Lightly battered and flavored. Really enjoyed the sauté mushroom – flavored very well. I had the egg pancake with scallion on rice… which reminds me of my childhood. Others in our party had interesting options too. I tried the salmon over sticky rice – that was hands down the best dish on the table that night! Cooked perfectly – when the salmon flakes but not overcooked and rice was delicious! The chicken dish was also good.
We tried two of the dessert that turned out perfectly – not too sweet. Mango sago had something like grapefruit in there adding a twist to the dish. I would go back !

First time trying this place I took picture with my digital camera that’s why it might look different but I would say the food taste is amazing but I was mostly was into spicy kimchi spaghetti then went to order other appetizer because I was very hungry the sweet potato Fries when I bite into them it was like wow the taste amazing the popcorn chicken taste good too. If your into like fancy dining restaurant should try here. If I have time I’ll definitely come back again

The service is really friendly and efficient, and the location and atmosphere is really pleasant and cozy! We found we had plenty of space and did not have to wait for seating, service, or the food! We had the beef stir fry spaghetti which was delicious, as well as the cucumber salad side and beef unagi with rice platter. The salad was good and the unagi was two thumbs up!

Great place highly recommend! I ordered the Cod Roe pasta and asked if they could add kimchi from another dish, and they happily accommodated me. The food was amazing and the vibe was perfect. Definitely a cozy, intimate spot to enjoy a delicious pasta dish or any other dish they offer and hang out with friends or family. Will definitely be back!

Really enjoyed the baked pork chop over rice. It is such a Hong Kong classic, and finally there’s a place in Philly Chinatown that serves some of the HK diner staples. The Hong Kong milk tea is also very similar to the ones in HK. My husband got the burger, which was not impressive, however considering there is not really a Hong Kong burger, I understand how this didn’t stand out. I can’t wait to go back to try the French toast and other classic hk diner dishes.

The spaghetti dishes were excellent, fried pork chop over rice was unfortunately too dry!
Friendly service.

I order the curry beef brisket and it was divine.
Highly recommend if you want a little bit of Hong Kong style Chinese with an American flare.
Everything was on spot, staff was super friendly and made me a drink not on the menu at my request.

Dined here on our first night in Philadelphia. Food was very unique, never eaten something like this before. The dishes were tasty and comforting. I asked for chili oil for my dish and was told almost 15 mins later that they don’t have it. Found that a bit strange.
Otherwise friendly service and clean ambience.
