C & M Bistro

Accidentally stumbled on this hidden gem in Oakland Chinatown, selling traditional HK BBQ meats! I ordered their BBQ pork on rice set for $8.50 and added roast pork for extra $2 which were both delicious. Although the meat wasn’t fresh out of the oven, their BBQ pork had good mix of lean and fatty meat, the roast pork was juicy and its roasted almost-fried like skin was really crispy - they also added a bit of the meat sauce which was pleasantly flavorful and balanced e (not too salty or sweat) that had a nice silky consistency versus some other stores that douse the BBQ meat with thick overpowering sauce that covers up the natural roasted flavors of the meat. Interestingly, they also give seaweed salad on top of the cold broccoli which was a great addition since it added a bit of sharpness and vinegary flavor to cut throw the fatiness of the meats - really smart choice to add this to their meal. Overall great quality meats and good value, would definitely come again. NOTE: They only accept credit card for orders over $20. Support small businesses with cash instead!

Very bad customer service! The first time to buy the eggplants, I have no idea how big it would be, so I asked for the midium container. When the lady found out I just wanted 1 lb, she called me "crazy guy" in Cantonese. I was so mad because she is so rude! The, I bought the BBQ Pork, I asked for the sauce on the side, she charged me 50 cents more. I bought $55 total. I cannot believe she charged me 50 cents extra fo the sauce on the side
