Alhambra Garden Café: A Taste of Chinese Comfort Food in Alhambra

We love this place!!!!! I have been here since my childhood and they never disappoint. Such a cozy atmosphere for family dining. Their menu selection is HUGE and there's always something that will fit the taste of everyone in your party. On top of that, the price is so affordable wow! I highly recommend any of the fried rice (pick your favorite one but mine is the Fu-chow fried rice ). Veggies, soup, and all the classic Canto/Chinese dishes yum!

Came for a late dinner and the cafe was pretty empty. The dinner/all-day specials are really good! One of us got a grilled steak and chicken wings for $16, and the whole roasted chicken with tomato basil rice was $11.88. You can't beat the price on this, especially since everything tastes great too. We also got a seafood ramen, the dinner set A, and a hk French toast. Everything just hits the spot.

Big varieties on the menu. There is so much selection to choose from. Great food, good service. Just don't understand why they automatically charge 18% tips on the bill. That was the downfall. If you order steak or pork or chicken steak, it's a wait time. Other dishes are quick. They also have a kids menu.

UH-MAZING FOOD. Came back after the last time I went in middle school, and the food quality is still just as good. The prices have remained incredibly affordable, staying true to the spirit of local Hong Kong–style breakfast restaurants. The food portion is great for the price- YOU WILL NOT FIND ANY OTHER PLACE WHERE THEY SELL A 12$ HEARTY BREAKFAST COMBO. The lamb chops with the mushroom sauce is delectable (this menu item was either removed or moved to the off-catalog secret menu BUT ORDER IT nonetheless). The congees- yea don’t even get me started. I COULD SCARF DOWN THREE PLAIN CONGEES because that’s how PERFECTLY seasoned they are, but of course you gotta get the classic egg century congee. I’m telling you one big congee serves 6 servings and me and my brother annihilated that ourselves. The regular portion serves 2 people. Oh yea, get the red bean shaved ice beverage ITS UH-MAZING just as I remembered. Service EXTREMELY efficient your American brunches could never. I was incredibly amazed by not just the consistency in food quality but service after a decade. In fact, the vibe, the restroom, and the whole setup were exactly as I remembered. Even the women’s restroom still had that same breezy, cold temperature I noticed back in middle school. This is a place I would usually gatekeep but I was so astonishingly surprised and satisfied I cannot stop raving about this place. Their curries with spaghetti noodles ARE FIYAH as well. LONG LIVE HONG KONG!!! They know what they’re doing cause all the customers were old aunties and gpas that’s how you know it’s good food and good prices:) oh yea and there’s free parking (in LA)

11-27-21: Came here for lunch and ordered a bunch of noodles! Beef Chow fun was pretty good. Chinese pan fried chow mein was very tasty. Singapore noodles were also very good. Also ordered a few vegetable dishes that were cooked very well! Overall, the noodles are great. Traditional Cantonese style cooking. Would definitely come back again for more noodles!

My favorite daily go to HK cafe style chain here in Greater LA area, three locations, this Alhambra branch has a storage parking for free, nice quality as always to all locations, original HK style iced milk tea is original, juicy crunchy spicy chicken wings. Tomato Spaghetti is very nice as always.

I gave them a try and couple of weeks ago, they food was tasty, so I decided to go back. Surely enough, it was consistently good. I know the plates are ment to be shared, but I honestly didn't want to share.

Been going to this place for several years now. Pretty good choices from sandwiches to Asian food. Plenty of drink choices as well. The combo are good value meals. Great selection and New Year specials. You can have your typical Asian food (chow fun, ramen) and match it with pasta. They had lobster, filet mignon, scallop specials.
