" I recently tried May Mei and it was fantastic! The hot pot rice was a highlight with its comforting texture and delightful flavors. The ambiance was welcoming, and it felt like home. We had a large group, and the dishes came out quickly, which I appreciate in bustling restaurants. The only downside was that it was cash-only, which was a bit inconvenient, but the food made up for it. Will definitely return! " (*Curated Review*)

" The food at May Mei is good but sometimes a bit hit or miss. I enjoyed most of the dishes, but a couple had too much soy sauce. The ambiance is typical for a Cantonese restaurant; functional more than fancy. The staff was friendly, but I did experience sketchy service during busy periods. Overall, it's a decent spot for Cantonese comfort food, especially if you're in the mood for something hearty. " (*Curated Review*)

" May Mei is a hidden gem! I was blown away by how authentic the dishes were, reminding me of my grandmother's cooking. We ordered several dishes, but the clay pot rice stood out. I will say parking can be a hassle during peak hours, and the inside felt a bit cramped, but it adds to the charm. Bring cash to avoid surprises. If you love Cantonese food, you won't regret visiting! " (*Curated Review*)

" May Mei is a treasure! The fried fish was fantastic. The service was a bit slow since they were busy but nothing too discouraging. It’s fascinating how authentic the food tastes. I always feel very satisfied after each meal—definitely a place I would recommend! " (*Curated Review*)

" May Mei has a special place in my heart. Their dishes bring back many fond memories of my childhood. The clay pot rice topped with preserved meats is something I can't get enough of! I also appreciate that the staff makes me feel welcome. While it's cash only, the food is comforting and delicious, well worth the trip. Highly recommend! " (*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*)
