Came here with my coworker, she had been talking about this place and their Hainan chicken for a while, saying it was the best in the area. I hadn't tried it until today and wow it really is the best one in the area.
The hainan chicken is so popular but I tried their French styled filet mignon and it's so succulent and juicy!!!
Definitely also give this a try if you stop by!

Service, by what I'm guessing is one of the owners was great. Sadly, she was working the front by herself and the tables filled quickly while I was there. They spoke at least 3 languages while I was there, English, Cantonese, and Mandarin. Food came promptly and was delicious. We started off with complementary soup/bone broth, Hainan chicken plate, and the owners recommended vegetable plate. Everything we ate was tasty, but I can't remember all of the names. I do remember the accompanying sauces for the Hainan chicken went well together.

Ol' skool place, with very attentive folks. They've been here for a while. I've been here once many years ago, but honestly, I don't hit them often enough. Their food is really good. Tried their house chicken with their namesake, and it's SUPER soft.
The braised pork was good. Every bite I had was really soft. BUT, my friends also caught some pieces that were also not AS soft, so... Almost there, just a step away from perfect. One of those friends would still disagree though, because he'd much rather have the Shanghai style red-braised pork, "Yes, the red dye, sugar, and a side order of cardio-infarction please!" The braised pork here is more savory than sweet. But I liked it!
Their Filet Mignon wasn't bad either! If they gave a larger portion, and the inside was softer while maintaining that glazed protective layer, by cutting them up into slightly larger pieces, they would actually be on par with Tân Cảng (新港). BUT still good!!! Especially for the price!
Two of us split a half chicken. The rice is flavorful, the chicken is good, and that green sauce (ginger, scallion) is amazing. Getting a 2nd portion of the green sauce cost 25 cents extra, which surprised us, but it's so good that of course it's worth it.
They also served a complimentary soup, I think lotus and mushroom, that I'm told is a typical Cantonese style.

Ordered lunch to go on a Monday. Food overall were unimpressive although good portion. The eggplant was a bit undercooked, filet mignon a little tough, wonton soup rather bland, leaving the fried rice to be favored. The only thing memorial was actually the coconut cake, which is gelatinous sweet inside the coconut.
This place is decent for late night dinner if people don't want to eat in a crowded place in local area. Parking here is good after dinner time (around 9 pm). Food here especially chicken is very good, and other items (soup) are making likely in home-style. Also, whole coconut with dessert here is excellent because it is different from other dessert places. However, it is quite a small portion in my opinion. The owner and staff here has very good service, and food come out here very fast also. Overall, it is a good places to come here for small portion food at late night. (4.5 stars)

Hainan chicken rice dish is bomb. Better than savoy. Try their salt and pepper chicken wings! Skip the noodles. There's plenty of underground parking in this plaza. Friendly staff and food came out fast. Cold seaweed does run out fast though.

Hainan Chicken Rice, the first time here. the Hainan Chicken is very good. Compare to Savoy, it's just as good. Personally I like this over Savoy. Other dishes, some are good, some are not so. This little place has a large menu which made it a bit confusing. They should focus more on their specialties.
