" Love this place for its authentic HK flavors! I had the curry beef rice which was delicious, but I did find the portion a bit smaller than expected for the price. The atmosphere is casual, making it suitable for quick meals. Overall, a good choice for quality HK cuisine. " (*Curated Review*)

" This was my third visit, and it was even better than I remembered! The beef brisket was tender and the noodles were cooked perfectly. The environment felt friendly; the owner even remembered my name. The only issue is the parking situation, which can be tricky, but the food makes it well worth it. Highly recommend the milk tea! " (*Curated Review*)

" We visited Cafe Orchid on a busy Saturday. Initially, we were greeted and seated promptly, which was nice. The food came out hot and fresh, but there was a bit of a delay in service at times. I would suggest going during less busy hours to fully enjoy the experience! " (*Curated Review*)

" If you are looking for comforting HK styled food, this is the place! The pork chop over rice is really good, and don’t skip the milk tea. I had a small hiccup with my order but the staff was quick to resolve it. Overall, I had a great experience and will be coming back soon. " (*Curated Review*)

" Expect familiar dishes in a cozy atmosphere from this cafe. The staff is friendly but occasionally gets swamped with orders. Tried the baked Portuguese chicken rice dish and it did not disappoint! Will definitely be coming back to explore other menu items. " (*Curated Review*)

" The highlighting point at Cafe Orchid is their milk tea. It's definitely a must-try if you're there! Along with that, I had the pork chop over rice. While good, I expected a thicker sauce for the pork. Overwhelmingly fast service, which I appreciated, but be ready to wrestle for parking. " (*Curated Review*)

" A great place if you’re after decent HK comfort food! My favorite dish was the curry fish balls, so flavorful. The service was quick even with a packed dining room, but some tables were a bit cramped. I’d recommend it for anyone who loves Asian cuisine! " (*Curated Review*)
