Papa's Cafe

This whole in the wall restaurant is delicious!!!!!We got the shrimp fried rice (which was amazingly good!!!) and also tried the teriyaki chicken which was also very good!!! The service was good and the people were very nice and attentive, also the food came out very quick.The restaurant has very limited seating but very clean. I recommend this place!!!!

Good service tasty soup with tandons and won ton choy sum. Large portion and very flexible. Menu. No ng so a lot of walk inside. Good place for lunch.

I went to Papa's Cafe and got the Beef Brisket Noodle bowl when I got it the soup was scalding hot in the take out container whew! I had to open that container very carefully any way, after opening the soup I poured it into the bowl of noodles and beef brisket and stirred the contents around a bit to soak it in. I finally got to start eating and it was pretty good although the soup isn't as thick as some other places I've been to the taste was good and hearty enough. the noodles were al dente and the beef brisket was rather soft. I didn't miss the thicker broth from other places for the price Around $12 not bad!

Papa's Cafe deserves a huge shoutout for being the ONLY restaurant I've ever seen tape over the original price--to LOWER the price. That's amazing! When restaurants raise prices, it's never coming back down--even if ingredients are cheaper.Here's another Chinese restaurant that changed ownership recently, the previous ones retired, and I'm happy someone took over Papa's Cafe and maintained the excellent food while also adding their own specialty dishes as well! One of those dishes is Spicy Pig's Ear. Very well prepared. The ear's were soft, tasty, tender, and sliced razor thin. The spicy sauce was flavorful and had a very nice spice kick. It was kind of like laoganma chili sauce.Happy to see Spiced Duck Neck available as an alternative to Wu Wei, and these did not disappoint! They were quite tasty and packed with flavor and spice. Most importantly, the Duck neck was warm and moist! Next was the Cold Beef Salad. The beef was quite tender and the sauce was flavorful with a nice spice. My issue was that the beef was warm warm--not room temperature warm. It threw off the experience.We saw one of the workers wrap wontons (ever so professionally) and they looked really good! We asked if it was possible to just purchase them raw and unfrozen, and the owner, who was very friendly, nice, and pleasant, agreed. We were charged the same price on the menu, but received several extra wontons since there was no soup and they didn't need to boil it. Needless to say, the wontons were very good. Simple, authentic taste. Loads of tender and tasty pork, and large chunks of shrimp!They also do party trays as well. It's calculated by the number of orders for the tray size. Ordered a small tray of Beef Chow Funn, and that was 3x a regular order, which you get A LOT. Needless to say, it was a big hit. Tender and tasty caramelized beef with soft and toasty chow Funn. Solid flavor and nice wok heat.Overall, I'm happy that the new owners kept its name, the mom-and-pop feel of the place, the awesome food while also introducing their own delicious dishes. Huge props to marking prices DOWN. Honest people deserve more business! I can't wait to try more things!

Taste good and food package in nice way won't spill the soup and food. Ordered the wonton noodle soup.

Great food at this hole in the wall. The seafood laksa and choy sum was delicious. Deducted one star because it takes a while for the food to come out bc there's only one lady who's making the food but she's trying her best. Also the restaurant is quite cramped with limited seating. I'd come back again again to try their other dishes!

During the recent power outage, I found myself needing to get some food because I couldn't cook and I didn't want to open the fridge! This place has been in my bookmarks for SEVEN years and I've never had a chance to check it out. Well I made it a point and called in to get their seafood laksa. By the time I walked down there, they had it ready, but I forgot to bring cash! Thanfully, they took venmo. I ended up eating in the courtyard outside, dipping my noods into the soup instead of mixing the whole thing. I enjoyed it and would definitely recommend. Was about $18, but definitely had enough for two sittings.

Fantastic! Delicious! A small hole restaurant is fronting the busy bus stop on N. Hotel Street. Don't drive on N. Hotel Street, only buses are allowed there. The generous brisket wonton noodle was heavy and awesome! Nice chunks of brisket in every bite. DoorDash was convenient and the food arrived hot and fresh.

If walk in and see this bunch,LEAVE! I know the food is good and prices are reasonable but this bunch will ruin your meal. Drinking and talking, or I mean yelling at each other will sent off the sound meter on your phone. Lady knew it was not appropriate but did nothing about it.

A little whole in the wall that has excellent Chinese food at a reasonable price. The amount of their serving are for two people. Good spicy noodles and cake noodles. Good service.
