Hong Kong Flower Lounge Xiāng Mǎn Lóu

HK Flower Lounge is a solid old school Chinese Food Restaurant. It offers traditional Cantonese dishes and unique culinary experiences. The flavors are authentic Hong Kong style cooking. The menu is extensive as it has some of the unique foods you can usually find only in Hong Kong. I didn't see this dish on one of the Chinese restaurant menus in LA. You have also recommended dishes that are not typical dishes of Chinese restaurants in the USA. In other words, if you want to explore some of the authentic Chinese dishes, this is the place to do it. The restaurant also offers a very good price for your money. Although prices for individual dishes are average, the set menus offer excellent offers. When we have dined there, we ordered a set for $55, the scalion and ginger crab, fried pigeons, ice veggie, Buddha jump over the wall soup, and fried tofu. They also threw in three desserts for us. We couldn't stop all food, because the portions were so generous. Finally, the service was excellent. Our waiter Jackie checked us all the time and changed records. He was the one who brought us the extra desserts like the red bean paste soup, wife cookies and sponge muffin. We were so impressive with food and service. We bring our friends here when we visit San Francisco.

Dim sum portions are quite large here, but it still had good taste. In particular, nothing stood out, and the dumplings fell too easily apart because they were too big. Prices are appropriate for the location. Service was good and we didn't wait long for food. They were also able to our large group of 13 on a Sat during lunch without a question.

Dim sum might not up to modern standard, but the service is good, even for non regular... Nice and historical building is great inside out, this is the place to remember...

This place is amazing! The food tasted great and the portions were huge. I can't wait to go back

Ok, if you want some authentic Chinese Hong Kong cuisine, this is it. So much so that no one speaks English there and you rely on pointing menu items with your finger to order. Food is quite fabulous and very reasonably priced. But my rational for 3-stars comes from the atmosphere, cleanliness, friendliness of servers, etc. The overall experience was just not good. First, you park in their underground parking lot that looks really sketchy. You try avoid any dirty puddles and grime to get to the worn out elevator. Everything has a 1980s vibe and you feel like you are in a street market. Not sure if they intended that. Noise levels are quite loud (although not specific to this restaurant). Saving grace is food obviously. Really interesting experience but won't be returning any time soon.
