Garden Hong Kong Cafe 嘉頓茶餐廳

Been craving some hainanese chicken rice. Have to make a stop with a friend to garden hk Cafe by @langhamsquare Had to time it right though as it gets packed here esp during lunch time. Also because the Cafe space is very limited The food however, hardly ever disappoints. And if you're a fan of hk milk tea, this place is not bad Craving satisfied!

This a little small restaurant with always line up. It opens at 11 am and people are already lining up at 10:50am. My go to is the hainanese chicken with is highly recommended, the chicken is very juicy and the rice is very fragrant. I had a pineapple bun with butter which was also very fragrant and delicious. The pork and chicken with black pepper sauce was average but the portions and price for all the items are very reasonable. The milk tea is average, I think the selling item at this restaurant is the hainanese chicken.

Always huge lineups but well worth the wait. One of few places in town that has amazing Hainan chicken rice and authentic HK cafe style food, all at affordable prices.

It was a very disgusting dining experience. First of all, when the meal was served, I felt something was off. Did they not have quality control for their dishes? The rice was scattered, the chicken was messy, and the cucumber was dry. I looked up and saw that the servers were all busy, so I didn't ask for a replacement because I had eaten here before and had a great experience. But as I continued to eat, I realized that it wasn't as good as it used to be. And just as I finished my meal and was enjoying my iced lemon tea, one of the servers threw my bill on the table without any explanation. I didn't ask for the bill because my tea was still unfinished, but she didn't offer any explanation and walked away. When I paid for my meal, they gave me change, but I didn't have time to pick it up before she almost took away all the remaining change. I thought their service was very poor, so I left a 10 cents tip and left. Then their service staff came out and said that delivery orders did not need a tip, but dine-in orders did. I explained that the reason I was not tipping was because of their poor service. Before I had even asked for the bill, they had slammed it on the table, and without my permission, they had pushed another table up against mine. You could have explained that each table has a certain dining time, and that there were many people waiting outside, in which case I would have asked for my bill to be brought to me, rather than having it slammed in front of me. I am not tipping because of the poor service, not the quality of the food. And by the way, the quality of the food was also poor. And your service staff did not provide good service to me while I was eating, if not completely no service. She just put the food in front of me and had a bad attitude. I don't know what her attitude was like when I left the restaurant. She said that I should never set foot in the restaurant again. Don't worry, I won't be coming back. I gave 20% tip at Cafe De Hong Kong yesterday. That's where I'll be from now on. The service there is good, and there is quality control. It makes me feel like a restaurant should have an attitude. They deserve every penny. And you are worth nothing. Your restaurant deserves only one star, if possible, I would even like to give it a negative rating. The extra two stars are awarded to the previous version of your restaurant.

We came at 4pm on Friday, got seated after 5 mins. Everything we ordered was great, but the food waiting time was quite long, as i observed they have many takeaways. ✨ Highlights: Hainanese Chicken Rice, Beef Brisket with Curry on Rice, Iced lemon tea The shop is tiny with only 22 seats, so be prepared to queue at busy hours.

Ordered take out from here and perhaps its not a good gauge of its quality but I was disappointed with the results. First, the positives: the cold lemon tea was very good, not too sweet and very lemony. And the chicken in my rice casserole dish was cooked very well and the flavour of the tomato sauce was very good (I don't like it when its too tinny or too ketchup-ee flavoured). Here's where the dishes went wrong: 1) the HK steamed rice rolls and the fish siu mai where hard and tough in texture, it wasn't steamed well and did not have the nice, soft, bouncy chew. 2) the HK egg sandwich was just sad....there was hardly any egg in it. 3) the baked chicken with fried rice and tomato sauce was the best dish of the order especially since the rice was actually fried and had egg and corn but I did not like it was very clumpy, like it wasn't properly mixed before being baked. And there was one very lonely, sad slice of cucumber that was very soggy and just didn't need to be added to the dish. Fresh, diced tomatoes were added to the top as well and I could pass on that as well as it didn't add anything to the dish. The satay beef noodle soup was alright too but nothing to rave about. This place is incredibly busy though but I think its because the portion sizes are decent and the price is very affordable. 2 mains, 2 sides and 2 drinks came to $35. I wouldn't NOT come back here but I also wouldn't go out of my way to come back here either.

Yummy HK food, you’ll find all your standard HK fare. It’s a no-fuss restaurant, very small space - love the feel of it. The pineapple bun burgers are delicious, easily my favourite thing we tried. The French toast is perfectly done, crispy as it should be. All the sauces in the dishes we ordered were delicious, the meats & eggs were done perfectly. And of course, the Hainan chicken & rice is delicious. It even sells out many days! Service is fast, but because the space is so small, you may have to wait for seats. Food comes with a drink.

2024 updated If you come at off-peak, then wait time only 10 minutes. Customers always liked the Hainan Chicken, Curry beef brisket... Indeed the food quality are very good at very fair prices. Milk tea is good too. Thank you Garden HK 👍
