Got the baked seafood on rice, which is s typical dish from Hong Kong. It was an alright experience, the food was average. The location is sure convenient as it is close to the Canada Line, I could see it being a popular place to eat for lunch for all the people that work close to Broadway City Hall.
A fairly good Hong Kong style restaurant, with lunch/dinner combos, consisting of food items from around the world, e.g. pastas, Japanese teppan noodles, curries, Thai/Singapore and Chinese specialties. The Singapore laksa is the best I've tried, especially love the sliced fish cake they put inside which comes from Singapore. They also have freshly squeezed juices - try the kiwi juice, it's tasty and so good for you!
One of the nice looking cha chaan teng style places in Vancouver. My favorite dish is the minced beef and fried egg rice. The place is well furnished, and I always go there! Recommended for HK style cafe@ rookies. The a la carte menu is very expansive and the lunch menu is also very good. Only downside is the staff, not a lot of service happening around. Still, recommended. Would come back at any time.

Good food and delicious lobster bisque. We go there once a week.
:::. HK style cafe, was hoping for some Taiwanese type snack stuff, but anyways. The bbq pork noodle soup was good here, prices are cheap enough as well. Afternoon tea and late night is the way to go here!
I've been coming to icafe ever since they were previously located in that plaza on the corner of cambie & west broadway which has since been demolished years ago. great HK style resto with consistently quality menu items & service. we're always greeted with a smile and chitchat, especially by the friendly supervisor. their prime rib is A+ and comes with ur choice of side salad/rice/or spaghetti noodles, any beverage, HK dinner bun with butter, and ur choice of russian borscht soup or creamed soup.
Decent place. I like their food and their price! The cafe has a nice, quiet atmosphere but service can be very very slow. If you are not in a hurry it's nice that they let you sit in there without rushing you. But if you need their service (for more water, get the leftover food to go, or to get the bill, etc)it could take quite a while before they attend to you.
Late night cheap eats. After 9 (or 930) they have an inexpensive late night menu so we usually order a noodle soup or stir-fried noodle or other HK cafe style items to nibble on and it comes with a free hot drink. Usually for under $7.
Great lunch specials!. There's so much selection on the lunch menu, it was hard to decide what to eat. They also have a set menu for $9.95, with soup, entree, and a drink.
Great Prime Rib Deal. I just had their prime rib special and it was very good. If you were looking for a HK style cafe in vancouver, Icafe would definitely be one of your top choices. Huge selection and many set meal specials. The staff I encounter were quite friendly and the restaurant looked very clean but I guess most people just stare at all the flat screens tv they have in the restaurant. Parking is a bit of a pain and their prices are a bit on the high side. but the overall experience is very good especially after devouring their prime rib, probably one of the best in town for the price. For the full meal special, you get the prime rib, soup and drink, all for under $20. Good value for the money!
Flavourful food. A little bit more expensive compared to some late night hong kong style cafes. Lemon tea and milk tea were good. For food we ordered portugeuse chicken, curry beef brisket, beef brisket in noodle, some kinda vermicelli noodle, and baked seafood with cheese on rice. Everything was really good except the noodles (they had no flavourful at all) and baked seafood on rice (bad rice, very small portion, no seafood, barely any sauce). Usually that's my favourite dish so I was pretty dissapointed.
Conveniently located near Broadway-City Hall Station, it apparently boasts some pretty good lunch specials (around 10 bucks for each), so we figured, what the hell! We’re both poor and starving, let’s go! Having read each others’ minds, we both ordered the Lunch Special that consisted of Deep Fried Fish and Pork Chop (11.50). To start off, it came with soup (tastes like cream of corn) and some rolls. The soup itself could’ve stood to have been seasoned a bit better, as other than MSG, it didn’t really have taste. The rolls were very soft, fluffy and warm though, and had a nice mild sweet taste to them! The only difference between Zeeg’s and mine is that she ordered the rice instead of the spaghetti.The pork chop was nice in that it was actually fairly lean! The fish was nicely breaded, as it wasn’t too thick and had a light crunch to it. Whatever sauce they u
iCafé is another cafe modeled after the cafes in Hong-Kong. It looks fairly small on the outside and pretty easy to miss if you're just walking down broadway; the entrance is on Heather street.
Overall, i Cafe is a good quality HK style restaurant. The prices are higher than others in Vancouver, but it also has a much nicer environment.
The i Cafe is considered those late night asian cafe's, similar to Honolulu.
We've blogged several Hong Kong cafés in the past, but this one is my favorite . Located at the intersection of Heather and West Broadway , i café doesn't have much neighborhood competition. Burnaby and Richmond are saturated with HK Cafes, but t
i Cafe is a Hong Kong style cafe located on the corner of Broadway and Heather. It used to be located just north of Broadway (prior to the fire / condo development / Canada line construction debacle that hit that Fairview neighborhood). They are now reloc
