Sai Kung Cafe

I tried the traditional Hong Kong style dish - Braised pork belly with preserved vegetables and rice , the portion is generous, I can’t finish it on lunch time and packed, it tastes good. The brown sugar mill tea tastes plain, like sugar milk instead of tea. Service is average but the wall paintings are beautiful. Price is reasonable. See the menu.Please pay attention:1. no card service, only accept cash or transfer money via bank account.2. No toilet

Servers dim sum, Cantonese and mainland china dishes. Tried a few plates of each. Massive dim sum portions and very tasty. Same price as London. Had the Dan Dan spicy numbing noodles. Very good. Highly recommend. Make sure you get some tap water to cool the numbness down. Strangely high ceiling in this restaurant. Very spacious. Loads of locals and tourists and students. Fresh jasmine tea leaves in pot. The place could do a bit more on the interior and maybe play some music in the background. Pay upfront at the till then your food is served.

Whilst walking to the Bristol Museum via Park Street, we spotted some Chinese pastries in the hot display so we stopped by for some snack / desserts after visiting the museum.My dad was more intrigued with the name of the cafe as my parents are from Sai Kung.You order at the counter and it's cash only. We ordered egg tarts (蛋撻), char siu pastry (叉燒酥), mango pudding (芒果布甸) and mango sago pudding (楊枝甘露). I've forgotten what's the individual price but it was £19.40 for the four items. Reasonable price. The best points were the flavours and the portion size. We enjoyed the pastries that seemed like they were just out fresh from the oven. Hot, crispy, not too sweet and plentiful of meat filling (for the char siu pastry). Same for the pudding; not too sweet and decent portion size. They were pre-made and stored in a tub in the fridge.Definitely would stop by again when we visit Bristol in the future.

The roast duck was good. I asked for chili oil to eat with the duck and mix with rice, tasted even better!!! They accept cash only.

This restaurant is using spaghetti instead of noodles. I’m all for Asian infusion, but this is ridiculous, particularly when the menu says vermicelli noodles. at £45 for three main courses for three people why do they need to rip people off? Also they only take cash. HMRC should take a good look at them.

I personally really like this place! The staff are incredibly friendly and are always delighted to practice speaking Chinese with me and explain details about each dish and really want to make sure I’m happy with everything I order. I’ve had a pretty wide array of dishes and all have been very tasty. It’s a very simple place and I’m giving 5 stars for that combination of very tasty food and excellent, friendly service that keeps me coming back. 謝謝大家！

I was so grumpy eating here. Yes it's a street food cafe, but service was terrible and cash only. Self order on a piece of paper then pay at the til. Food itself was fresh and really good, but try eating a soup with the chopsticks and wooden cutlery. Messy. I just need to learn how to shovel noodles from the bowl and slurp. I just left stressed and splashed! But I would go there again for their dim sum food.

We were lucky to catch the 50% off promotion at Sai Kung Cafe. It's been on my hit list for a while and we went all out! Hainanese chicken rice, three roasties rice and some sushi. Their service was good despite the queues. And they replenish food throughout the day - we timed it just right.Onto the food, I'll start off with the pros. The three roasties was good value with a decent portion size. Comes with the classic sweet sauce. Roast pork was crispy and flavoured beautifully. I'm not crazy about char siu but theirs was decent. However, the duck was mostly skin and not much meat. They could be more generous with the pak choi as well.Hainanese chicken rice was okay, I've had better in Bristol. Again the cut of chicken wasn't amazing and the sauce is a bit of a letdown. I did enjoy the rice though.Sushi is best avoided. The sushi rice is bland and barely kept together. The fish was not very fresh but what can I expect from this kind of establishment.Overall, it was a good cheap meal. I would still go back to try their breakfast items.
