I go here regularly during lunch time. What I like about this place is that its up to 2 dollars cheaper than the plaza across the street. And for the price, i actually find it better tasting than the 2 competing restaurant across the street.
This place is pretty busy during the lunch time, so expect to wait. Not much waiting room, can get really crowed during some days. Contractors seems to love this place, i see them all the time. So yeah, it might get a little dirty.
Not much going on at that plaza except for this restaurant. Most of the cars parked there are customers going to this place. I sometimes have to park in the streets.
They loss a little business when T&T opened across from them, but once the hype was overall, their customers went back to them.
Food, price, and tastes good. -

I can't believe that this place is getting such a high rating. I'm kinda surprised. I've been here a few times but I only come due to family. I have to agree that the price is cheaper than across the street by 1-2$ but the food is disgusting.
People nowadays don't really look for quality food if they can give this place a high rating. One time my dad order a tofu rice and the tofu already went bad. We told the waitress and she didn't even bother to apologize. She asked us so what do you want?
Another time, my cousins came along, we ordered HK style milk tea and they made lemon tea instead. When we asked them to change it they gave us such attitude.
I am sure willing to pay more to get something better than what this is. -

Wish I had taken some pics as the current pics showing on the profile are outdated, Hai Tang has actually renovated and it looks little bit more modern, similar to "Phoenix Restaurant". Hai Tang gets a 4 from me not because it's fancy but it's crème de la crème out of the 'cha chang tangs'/HK café I've been too. Food is quite good and cheap, can get baked spaghetti/rice pork/chicken etc. for about $6 with a drink. Service is quick and not the typical rudeness from HK Cafés.
On the weekends and possibly on weekdays too, they have afternoon tea special which I believe starts at 230pm however if you go earlier they have some specials as well.
Just a word of warning, I guess after recent renos it hasn't gotten quite popular and there's typically a short 5-10 mins wait at times.Listed in: HK style cafes

As far as the food is concerned, you can't get a better deal for your dollar than Hai Tang. You can get an afternoon tea special for $5.50, and the portion size is ridiculously large. You'll have leftovers to take home. I frequent this place for lunch and afternoon tea the most, although I have been here for dinner a few times. I've always left full and happy to return. At dinner time, if you order $25 of dishes, you get a free sweet and sour pork. This deal might be a limited time offer, and it's not that widely known because the sign they post advertising this deal is all in Chinese and only posted at the front door.
Bottom line is if you want good food for your money, go to hai tang. Be prepared for long lineups on the weekends. -

Super cheap hk style cafe. Got no.8 satay beef vermicelli noodle soup. Very gd, tasty and tender. Flavour amazing. cost 3.75. Also had Ho fun black bean beef noodle. Large portion. Delicious. Both come with a drink. And not part of lunch special. This was an 8 am to 530 pm special. The 230 pm special is about eight items long. Would def go back again but don't have too high expections. this is just a nice cheap, quick place if you're around the area. place is not a melt in your mouth amazing but def well worth the price relative to any of those nasty franchises out there. be wary of the waiting service, you don't get a number like in any other chinese restaurant, first come first serve so you gotta watch out who was tehre before you.

Cheap Cheap Cheap!!
Breakfast from $1.50 that includes a toast and coffee/tea
lunch or anytime from $3.50 that includes coffee/tea
dinner they served entrees dishes...
They also has sandwiches that comes with beverage for $ 2 or so...
I made my lunch order with low expectation since what can you get for lunch $3.50?? I was pleasantly surprise. The beef and fish ball I ordered was quite tasty and the portion was just perfect! (The hot chilli oil was great too!)
The service was fast and friendly. My food arrived less than 5 minutes after I placed my order!
This place can be noisy because they have this big plasma TV on loud volume showing Chinese program (all the patrons and wait staffs were watching it and having a good time.....)
Yes I will come back again for a fast and cheap lunch for sure!
