H.K. Cafe

Spacious, relatively modern interior. Friendly staff, and good food.

Good place for Chinese food, especially late night.

I'm quite surprised that this is literally the only Hong Kong style cafe/diner in all of Flushing. For a cuisine category that's super popular in Southern California, NYC is really lacking. The closest competition is Cha Chan Tang in Manhattan. HK Cafe does a pretty good job of going beyond the limited westernized Cantonese food. On this particular late-night 4th meal run, my wife opted for the ox tail and I had the thousand years egg congee along with my favorite: baked seafood rice. If you've never had baked rice from an HK Cafe, this place is definitely a good spot to have your first experience. As with most baked dishes, the dish doesn't arrive instantaneously like other dishes (it always amazes us how quickly the food gets prepped after ordering at Chinese restaurants). The decor is quite interesting with a few scenes from Old Master Q and a lit picture of Hong Kong behind the front counter. Otherwise, service is typical for Chinese restaurant (cold, quick, and efficient).

Delicious food good beverage selection. Their HK style milk tea is not that good. There's a small Parking lot and it's not easy to find street parking.

3.5 stars.

Price is pretty good. The food is decent enough, and the staff are decent too. The service I would rate better than congee village, which has slided downhill recently in both food and service quality.
