"12/26/2023 It's been a while since I came back. I didn't like some of the dishes so I stopped coming. However, things have improved. 蝦醬牛鬆炒飯 - 牛鬆means minced beef. Not here. They cut into very small pieces so the texture is very different. Also lack of shrimp paste flavor. They need to at least double it to make it taste stronger. 鐵板黑椒餐肉公仔麵 - The noodle is a little bit soggy. Also prefer to have more black pepper flavor. 焗豬扒飯 - This one was the surprised because I gave up on them long ago cause they refused to battered the pork chop to make it pork cutlet before. Surprisingly, this time regular baked pork chop over rice is with fried pork cutlet. That makes a big difference. The tomato sauce ain't bad neither. With a little improvement, this can be a go to HK style restaurant at least for those who likes the above dishes."

"My first time at Local Cafe I randomly chose the Hainan Chicken. The chicken is yellow, cold and cut in a boney way. I didn't like it but it was so strange that I knew it must be some famous dish or style. I'm glad I came back and my favorite dish right now is the shredded chicken."

"This restaurant seems to be only one serving “egg drop soup” that I was looking for. The soup was with chicken and and corn and it was tasty. Chow fun chicken noodles were good too. Portions are family style and big."

"My takeout container had a thick layer of dust on top. Combined with the steam from the hot food it was very gross. The food was okay (pork chop with onion sauce). It didn’t have much flavor but it was more or less what I was expecting. I chose pasta as a side expecting it to come in some sort of sauce, but it came plain. I don’t even think it was salted. Decent portion for $22, all things considered. There were 3 slabs of meat swimming in the sauce. Next time I feel like eating some HK style food I think I will cook it myself."

"This is Japanese Teriyaki Chicken with rice. As you can see the rice is under the meat and it is very sticky. The food was not tasty for me, I think too much teriyaki added."
