" Wow, I must say that May Mei lives up to its reputation! The fried fish plate was crispy and flavorful, while the Mongolian beef was incredibly tender. Portions were generous, we left feeling satisfied! Although there was a bit of a wait for our food, the servers were friendly and checked in frequently. The only reason I'm giving them four stars instead of five is because they are cash-only. Otherwise, it's a great place for comfort dining! " (*Curated Review*)

" While I appreciate the authenticity of May Mei, my visit wasn't stellar. I found the fried rice to be too greasy and the waitstaff seemed overwhelmed despite being friendly. It’s a cozy space but very crowded. I might return, but I feel there are better options nearby for Cantonese food. " (*Curated Review*)

" A beautiful experience at May Mei! The duck dish was crispy, and the flavors were altogether satisfying. It's clear that this restaurant values quality. Although we walked in around noon and the restaurant was packed, the staff worked efficiently. I also enjoyed the atmosphere, it felt vibrant. I look forward to coming back for more delicious food. " (*Curated Review*)

" Great food overall, especially the clay pot rice! However, I felt the waiter rushed us when ordering, which was a bit frustrating. The atmosphere is nothing too special but the price for the high-quality, authentic dishes makes up for it. I appreciated how fresh everything tasted, and I will likely return with friends for another round! Just remember—cash only! " (*Curated Review*)

" Having visited May Mei multiple times through the years, I'm always thrilled to return. Their consistency in maintaining high food quality is commendable. I particularly enjoy their special soups and clay pot dishes. Sure, the decor could use sprucing up, and the service can slow down during rush hour, but the food's authenticity keeps getting better. A classic spot for lovers of Cantonese cuisine! " (*Curated Review*)

" Unfortunately, my experience at May Mei did not live up to the rave reviews. While the hot pot rice was decent, the service was unusually slow, with our orders taking far too long. The waitstaff seemed overwhelmed, and I was slightly disappointed given the reputation. I am willing to give it another chance but hopefully at a less busy time. " (*Curated Review*)

" May Mei has been my go-to for Cantonese comfort food for years. I always return for their dumplings and clay pot rice. The authenticity is evident, as the dishes bring me back to my childhood. Sadly, the service tends to be hit or miss. Sometimes it’s attentive, other times it feels forgetful. Still, I highly recommend it for good quality and a nostalgic experience. " (*Curated Review*)
