When I am craving some stir fry beef noodle or HK milk tea, this is the place that I go to. Even though their menu prices have been increasing in the last couple of years, I still come and enjoy my meal. I’ll talk about my past experiences here as I have frequently come often for lunch and afternoon tea. I’ve only been here once for dinner. As for cell reception, for some reason, the back half of the restaurant is like a dead zone as I couldn’t get strong cellular and data reception. I don’t know if it is just my phone or provider, but signal is weak at the back half. For lunch, they have their all day combos and lunch combos which comes with a drink. Of course, if you want to have a cold drink, you have to add extra money on top. They are quite busy during the lunch hours. My favourite dishes for lunch are: –Fish filet with corn cream sauce on spaghetti/rice, –stir fry noodle with beef, –stir fry instant noodle with beef and –chicken cutlet on rice with a fried egg and tomato sauce. They have a great variety of dishes to choose from. Some dishes are obviously better than others. I found that the spaghetti with beef and tomato sauce a bit bland and the tomato sauce tasted like really artificial. My favourite dishes for afternoon tea are: –deep fried chicken leg with salad –deep fried chicken wings with salad –french toast with syrup Again, their afternoon tea prices are awesome and I highly recommend you come here for afternoon tea. As for dinner, I thought the dinner specials are a bit pricey. I tried the set dinner and it was strange enough that all the dishes came out at once. So I was drinking my soup while my main dish was sitting there and getting cold. I think the quality and quantity for that price point is not worth it for me. Overall, I definitely recommend coming for lunch or afternoon tea. I am definitely a fan of this place and my family is too!

I genuinely really like Phoenix restaurant. There’s plenty of options to choose from the menu and the price of the food is very reasonable. I tend to get one of the combos and I have always attempted to try something different which keeps me going back. The set meals come with choice of drink, however if you want a cold drink it would be an extra dollar. Service is fast so no complaints. Try not to go during the busy times although I tend to go during the afternoon tea(better deals then too!), or late dinner to avoid waiting.

Came for breakfast and ordered the steak and egg set. The bun was soft and fresh, which was really good but I found everything else to be mediocre at best. The steak was just the standard sliced beef that you would get in the stir fried noodle dish and the egg was just. well, egg. The lack of vegetables was quite disappointing and it was the gross frozen peas, corn, and carrots assortment. The portion sizes were pretty large though so I was really really full from the meal. Decent price for the quantity of food.

I haven’t been to Phoenix in over a year as it never crosses my mind. We came here for lunch and they offer a large selection of all day combos as well as lunch combos(includes a hot beverage). The food was great, presentation was alright as well. The servers are very quick and attentive as they gave us bowls for sharing our meals and plates to split the dessert(without us having to ask for them).

This restaurant gives you classic dishes from an HK style café, plus some decadent-looking desserts. For the food itself, the Hainanese chicken with rice is a favourite — the chicken is silky smooth and flavourful, and it comes with 3 different dipping sauces. The rice is chicken-broth infused, so it’s especially aromatic. But be warned — this does not come with a drink! Their HK milk tea is STRONG, so I can’t drink this stuff at night, unless I WANT to be up at all hours. By this virtue, my father is a huge fan of the tea, since it takes him way back to the HK homeland! The desserts are quite impressive. I’ve tried the brick-style thick toast, and to say«sharing is caring» is an understatement. It’s massive! The toast itself is covered in butter, so the mix of salty and sweet is quite appealing. AND it looks like a wrapped giftbox when it arrives! I’ve also tried the sesame ice cream pastry dessert, which comes in a tower of flakey pastry, sesame ice cream and more flakey pastry. Again, bring a friend to finish this one. I’ve never noticed if the service was good or bad, but I would say prepare to have a certain amount of assertiveness if you want responsive service. It’s just how it is at these establishments!
