Authentic Cantonese food!! The roasted duck and the soup of the day were absolutely the highlights that reminded me the taste of home 🥹.
And they gave you free tong sui (dessert) afterwards. The other dishes were pretty good too.
Highly recommend.
Call in advance to book a table if you can or be prepared to line up for a table during dinner hours.

There were 7 of us and we were able to try quite a few dishes.
I would recommend Peking duck, soy sauce chicken, and beef chow fun.
I wouldn't recommend any fried rice dish as the one I ordered lack flavor and salt.
Somehow the chef forgot to add salt or soy sauce in the fried rice.
It was very bland.
We also ordered walnut shrimp- way too sweet, definitely "American influenced." Overall the food was good, but it didn't stand out from any other Chinese restaurants in San Diego.
Service was okay.
4 stars all the way.
Dessert at the end was a pleasant surprised.
The sweet soup was probably the most authentic food that I ate at this place.

Nobel Chef is one of my favorite restaurants in San Diego.
A place that has a lot of "must try" and a lot more than to explore.
Crispy roast duck with the sweet and sour sauce is always amazing! The special order rice in pot is flavorful and I really like the crispy texture.
The salty fish and Eggplant is a bit too salty for me.
Their complementary desserts are really good as well! Many other dishes are also highly recommended, beef steak, beef soup, daily special soup, Eggplant meat with XO sauce...
