Loved it! Hong Kong style milk tea is smooth and creamy. Liked the pan fried filet.

I recently had dinner at Skyline Cafe and I must say, I am perplexed by the negative reviews regarding their service. During my visit, I found the staff to be quick, efficient, and incredibly friendly. It felt like I was in the game 'Overcooked,' irl where teamwork and speed are crucial to success.

From the moment I stepped into Skyline Cafe, I noticed the staff's dedication to providing excellent service. They seamlessly cleared tables, took orders, and collected payments with ease. Despite the seemingly busy environment, the staff worked together harmoniously, ensuring that each customer was attended to promptly.

Now, let's talk about the food. Sky Cafe certainly doesn't disappoint in this aspect. The menu offered a variety of options, and the portions were plentiful, especially considering the price. I left the restaurant feeling fully satisfied with leftovers for 3 more days.

We ordered the 3 dish combo meal which comes with the house soup and unlimited rice. I didn't know the portions were so big, so I ordered an additional noodle. All dishes came out quick, hot, and very tasty.

the delicious food and generous portions ensured that I will be visiting again in the future.

Got takeout from Skyline Cafe! We got two really similar orders, one is a pork cutlet over rice and the other is a chicken cutlet over rice. I love their tomato sauce and mixing it with rice. My boyfriend also got their chicken soy sauce chow mein!

good food and good price, but the service is terrible, they want the tips but do nothing, I can not seat the seat i want, just because that seat is too far and not easy for them to clean up, the lady called 阿嫦 is very rude, why the owner keep this kind of peroon work here? this is used to my favor restaurant, but the service make me very unhappy.

They are out of watermelon and strawberries whenever I come here. Otherwise, the food is delicious, the portions are generous the soup is really good, and the price is right. Rice is bottomless which is awesome. The lady said my attempt to order in Chinese was good so that’s cool too.

Food came out of the kitchen unusually fast this time. We were the only ones in the restaurant so we came at a good time.

The best Chinese restaurants I’ve been to only take cash and this place is no exception.

Love their curry beef stew.

If you're familiar with hole-in-the-wall Chinese cafes, this is it! The place is not that large so isn't great for large parties. But they do have 2 seating rooms. So if you don't mind sitting apart, they can certainly house a group of 20 people.

The staff there consists of a lot of familiar faces. We have been going here for YEARS. They all recognize us and are very nice. Your mileage may vary if you are new to their restaurant. But after a few visits, they treat you like family.

The food is very well-priced. Portions are huge and they have a happy hour menu with a lot of yummy things to choose from.

During dinner hours, they tend to be busy with dine-in and take-out. So be prepared to wait a little longer than the usual few minutes for your dishes. But definitely worth the wait if you want home-y Chinese foods.

Your friendly neighborhood dive. A convenient late night eatery if you live around the area. Foggy as heck, but worth the drive since the food is decent and inexpensive. You could pretty stuff your stomach to capacity for about $10. You probably won't find a place any cheaper around San Francisco, or maybe you can, but it's rare.

Anyhow, the food here is tasty. The Chow Fun (flat rice noodles) is a bit greasy though, but.is very filling. The Porridge with Preserved Salted Pork with a thousand years old egg (black preserved egg) is also good. And I really like their Deep Fried Garlic Chicken Wings. All was very good. It was very filling (probably grease) and to the point. The flavor was obviously there... Especially the Chow Fun. Not the healthiest thing to put in our tummy, but we all splurge unhealthily at times.

Parking was abundant late at nights compared to the weekends where you'll literally have to fight for a space. Probably too many stores and not enough parking spaces for the plaza.

The Skyline Cafe is convenient and very affordable. A bit on the dirty side and decor is pretty weird but is excused because this is a dive.
