The filet mignon was chewy so I don’t recommend but the other dishes were right on. Loved their lobster - it was $29/lb and came with free noodles.

I’ve been coming to the Hong Kong plaza for sometime now. I’ve always seen this place and finally decided to give it a shot. These a great dishes for sharing, would definitely recommend coming in a party of two or more. The actual restaurant isn’t the nicest but it’s a hole in the wall and there’s some great dishes on the menu. I decided to go with the spicy filet mignon, and was skeptical if I made the right choice. When I ate it, the meat was tender and very tasteful. One of the best beef plates I’ve tried. The beef was not chewy. Definitely going to go back and try something different there. I added umami sauce to the rice myself but the plate was delicious.

I'm giving them 5 stars for the quality and taste of their signature offering --- lobster! Ours was huge and expensive, but we allowed ourselves this luxury to satisfy our craving. Definitely worth our visit after a morning spent walking around Ikea. A friend of ours told us about this place a while back but we waited a long time to try them out. It was worth it. We had the lobster prepared their house special way! It came out of the kitchen quickly, perfectly seasoned and stir-fried. We ate it with some ong choy sauteed in garlic and some rice. The lobster proved too much for 2 people, but we didn't mind taking the rest home. Next time, we will definitely try their other dishes.

A little whole in the wall, but the food has so much flavor. They are really busy so you have to be a little patient. The mango ice tea tastes so good. The lobster noodles 🍜 😋 were the best I have ever tasted.

We lobsters decided to try a new place. The place is very clean. The owner is super friendly. They have been in this location for five (5) years. You can dine in or take out. I knew the owner from another restaurant. We ordered the following: pork chops (salt and pepper), squid (salt and pepper) and last dish house special chow fun. The food is very tasty. Next time, I am going to try some fish dish, soup and maybe the scallops too. I would recommend this place if you are craving for local Chinese food.

Budget minded Chinese food outlet. Wide range of prices. Lobster is pricey but you don't have to order it Legit outlet. Decor is ok. Furnitures are ok. Chairs look tired from dated finish that doesn't come clean anymore. Please bring refreshed and construction covers up a lot of stuff. Chinese speaking (Cantonese) shop keeper at least at lunch.

Great mom and pop shop. Food is very good and consistent. They even recommend what size lobster for your party so you don’t over order.

I found this restaurant in Instagram.Right away I had to try it. The Lobster is the best dish. The wonton soup and filet mignon was amazing. But if you are planning to go there for the Lobster you must call ahead ,they run out so fast. Every penny I spend was worth it
