"We were invited to a unique experience in Cambridge UK a small, unassuming seafood restaurant. You would never imagine that behind this door, amid simple surroundings, would be such an elegant culinary artist. Our host called and pre ordered because this is a small restaurant with very high standards. It was like having a persona chef. He went and sourced the seafood personally, a Dorset blue lobster. As we are from Boston, we thought we know lobsters. We were wrong. Cooked to order, with garlic, spring onion, and a certain kind of chili spice, we have never tasted anything like it. My husband is from Sichuan, and *he* was impressed. We were also treated to black cod, again, perfectly textured, and a balancing of all the flavors. We also had green vegetables and rice. The unique thing os the chef/owner is a one man show. He goes to the fish market on the coast. He cooks. He waits tables himself. He does it all, with aplomb and efficiency. Do not be fooled by the location or the decor. This is extraordinary Chinese seafood cooked by a master. Rush to try this place."

The food was absolutely delicious. Each dish surpassed the last, and Daniel provided us with his top recommendations before cooking and serving everything from scratch.

Though severely hit by the crisis, Hakka Cambridge continues to be the best restaurant in town and one of the best in the United Kingdom. Delicious seafood and fish dishes. Very good quality/price. Enjoy it while it lasts.

This is the best Chinese meal we have ever had! Don't let the exterior of the restaurant deter you - the food is outstanding. The owner also serves as the chef and waiter, providing a personalized dining experience akin to having your own personal chef.

We chose Hakka’s for our wedding anniversary meal, as we wanted something special. We were very pleased with the whole experience. This is a high quality restaurant. Like other high quality restaurants, and in contrast with more mediocre ones, the ingredients are all fresh. This means that the range of what can be ordered depends on what has been bought in. As with other very good restaurants, what makes it first class is the quality of the dishes provided. We had the seafood salt and chilli platter for two to start, the best example of this dish we had ever had. This was followed by two exquisite seafood dishes (one scallop and one prawn), with an egg fried rice that made us realise that ev...

I have visited this restaurant twice now, and it offers some of the best Chinese food I have ever had. It is important to note that this restaurant is operated by one person who manages everything from the front of house to the kitchen. The experience of dining here is unique as you receive food from a dedicated individual who clearly takes pride in what they create. While there may be some rough edges due to the small operation, I highly recommend not letting that deter you. The food we enjoyed was consistently delicious, and it was one of the best meals I have had in a long time. My top picks were the drunken fish in wine sauce and the sea-spiced oysters. The quality of the food is excepti...

This is my second time eating at Hakka and same as previous the food was perfect. The sizzling beef was a piece of steak, cooked medium rare so it melted in mouth with a tangy home sauce. Likewise the pork belly was just right. But most importantly, the seafood was the star of the show. I ate black cod for the first time here and again this week, it is an incredible fish, rich and unctuous, cooked simply with charred spring onions garlic and ginger the freshness of the fish speaks for itself. Likewise the prawns and lobster were perfect. The work ethic of the restaurateur who is chef, maitre d’ors, and owner is from a different generation. he talked about driving for hours to get the best lo...
