" Restaurant Sai Gwan has become one of my regular spots in the city. Their noodle dishes are delightful, and the service is normally top-notch. I recently tried the clay pot rice with spare ribs, and boy, was it worth the wait! The atmosphere is cozy, with a touch of nostalgia that I love. If you're in the area, do stop by for a truly comforting meal. " (*Curated Review*)

" Sai Gwan is the place to go for authentic Cantonese comfort food. Their special clay pot rice was just divine, and I was impressed by the tenderness of the meats used! The service had a personal touch, and they were more than willing to answer questions about the menu. Although they only accept cash, which may not work for everyone, the quality of food compensates for it. Can't wait to go back and try more! " (*Curated Review*)

" I enjoyed my visit to Sai Gwan but there were noticeable ups and downs. Some dishes shone brightly like the clay pot rice, while others did not meet expectations. All in all, it was good food and a warm atmosphere, but I’d return only for the standout dishes. The dining area can get cramped, especially during busy meals. " (*Curated Review*)

" Overall a decent experience; however, I've had better. Authenticity was present in the wonton and noodle dishes, but I felt some elements were a bit overpriced for the portion sizes offered. The staff were lovely but service could have been a little quicker. The place's charm makes you overlook some of the negatives. " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely love this place! The authenticity of the dishes makes me feel transported back to the streets of Hong Kong. I had the hot pot rice with chicken and it was fantastic. Also, the Hong Kong milk tea is a must-try! The service was fast and attentive. If you're looking for a nice meal without breaking the bank, this is your spot. " (*Curated Review*)

" This little gem tucked away on the edges of Chinatown offers authentic Cantonese cuisine that is hard to come by. The wonton noodle soup was incredibly comforting and packed full of flavor. The fact that everything is made fresh in-house speaks volumes about the quality they maintain. We left feeling satisfied and excited to return. Highly recommend their shrimp dumplings and Hong Kong milk tea! " (*Curated Review*)

" The food here is good but the wait times can be excessive, especially during busy hours. I enjoyed the noodle dishes and the dumplings, but there's an undeniable lack of consistency across different visits. Sometimes I’d experience service that felt rushed or not as friendly. I think this place has potential, but they need to work on improving the dining experience overall. " (*Curated Review*)
