Bay Garden Cafe

mannnnn I looooove this place it's so tasty and never super crowded and their lunch specials are pretty good price wise and absolutely bangin and so delicious and the interior design is sooooo simple and cozy and the servers are all super nice and quick 10/10 would recommend especially for garlic lovers they do like garlic covered shrimp and some veggies with roasted garlic cloves and I tell you what it is so tasty I would order it again

Great dishes. Lobster/duck so big tender. Friendly service. Very impressive in a casual setting.

This review is strictly about their service, not food. I have eaten at this restaurant with my family many times and their food is decent. Yesterday was the first time I ordered take out via the Fantuan App. I ordered curry chicken 咖喱鸡 and sweet and sour pork chops 京都肉排. When I arrived at 6:20pm, Fantuan app shows the order is ready for pick up. But only curry chicken is made. When I asked them, they told me the kitchen is making it. So I waited and waited. A family was seated, they ordered their food, their order came and they were already eating. I kept asking and they told me the cook was deep-frying the pork chops. Ironically, my order came out the same time they serve that family who was dining in their order of sweet and sour pork chop. My Fantuan order was placed in the app around 5:50pm and I got the order an hour later, including the 30 minutes I stood waiting in their reception area. I contacted Fantuan for a refund and they said the restaurant refused because I've already picked up the order. They didn't do anything to compensate my time of waiting. They said the kitchen was busy because it was Christmas Eve. If that's the case, then why my order of Sweet and Sour Pork Chop, placed in the app at 5:50pm, came out at exactly the same time of the family's order (which was placed while I was already waiting at the restaurant at 6:30pm)? I felt I was neglected because I placed an order via an app. If this happens during dine-in, you can probably reduce the amount of tips to reflect the poor service. But as a takeout customer, I can't do anything except request a refund via the app which was denied by the restaurant. Fantuan gave me a $8 coupon after spending 30 minutes chatting with their customer service. Safe to say I won't be ordering from this restaurant again.

There is lots of parking in the rear. The food is very good and portions are generous at a very reasonable price. Service can be slow during breakfast rush on the weekends. There is a breakfast menu which is a great value. It does take some time for the food to come, but when it does it is nice and hot. Condiments like chili, soy sauce and vinegar are not available on the table. If you want condiments, you will need to ask. The restroom is clean.

I believe Bay Garden Café is underrated for its authentic Cantonese food and HK café cuisine. Despite being around for over 6+ years, the place doesn't seem as crowded as it used to be. They offer a great selection of Cantonese dishes, and their service is consistently fast. The pricing is very reasonable considering the generous portions of food you receive. The dishes are authentic, flavorful, and made with fresh ingredients. However, I must deduct one star due to the very dirty restrooms and old glasses/dishware. Quick tips: Parking is available right behind the restaurant, which is shared with other shops in the same plaza. Street parking is also an option. They offer a lunch special from 8 am to 3 pm daily at a very reasonable price. While many people may be drawn to the new Alice’s Kitchen (one of the best HK cafés in the area) across the street, I encourage giving Bay Garden Café a try if you're looking for something different.
