My review is based on the following: Food: 3 stars View: 5 stars Convenience and variety: 4 stars Recommendations: Bombay fish curry They have a wide variety of offerings. There is a table service restaurant, coffee bar with salads and quick bites, pasta bar, meat carving station, Indian, and pan Asian food. I typically will take a look around and end up ordering something from the Indian stand. Both the chicken tikka and Bombay fish curry are good. The portions are quite generous so you will definitely not be hungry afterwards. You have a choice of either rice or naan. The naan isn't the best and I would recommend going with the rice. I have had the meat carving station a few times and don't find it to be very good. It looks better than it tastes similarly to when you go to the carving station at the buffet. The view here is really awesome. You get a panoramic view of the Victoria harbor and the neighboring mountains. Definitely would recommend to come by for a quick meal and to enjoy the view.

You sat across from me at the family style table because at lunch time, though the seating is ample, the place is an absolute zoo. Maybe people come for the beautiful views that you get from the 37th floor, or maybe it's just super convenient if you work in One Island East. I know I go for the same reasons. I saw you looking at my sandwich. That's OK, it was a really nice sandwich of surprisingly flavorful pate with lettuce, tomato, and mayonnaise, all between a pleasantly squishy demi-baguette ($55). Were you surprised as I was to find such a bold sandwich combination at a rather sterile looking place such as Public? That's OK, I am always pleasantly surprised by the somewhat unconventional menu at Public. Yesterday I had the corned beef and emmental mini-baguette ($30) which was surprisingly filling despite its small stature. I'm afraid the mushroom soup was still pretty weak. You were eating the pick-three salad combo ($55), which is my favorite thing at Public. Today it was fresh heirloom cherry tomatoes, roasted veg, and penne with peas and pesto. It was lovely.. I hope you'll agree with me in thinking that Public is one of the best places to lunch in the area. Signed, Chris H

I wasn't expecting the Chinese yam to look or taste nothing like a sweet potato since the japanese eggplant taste like an eggplant. I also had my first experience with cold vermicelli soup. I've never seen this option before in a Japanese restaurant. The strong lime taste made it refreshing even if unusual. Even after eating those dishes, i still felt hungry afterwards which makes this vegetarian restaurant in common with a traditional sushi restaurant.

At first I was a little confused about the name, Greyhound Cafe? Not really sure why that name and…read moreI thought it is something "bus" related and maybe an American diner?! Greyhound Cafe is a franchise originated from Thailand and now in Hong Kong. Food is Thai Fusion. So you will find quite an interesting menu but the flavour profile is mainly Thai. This has become one of my family favourite place for gathering and of course I ended up coming here when I am in town. Reservation highly recommended as the restaurant is small and you will have 90 minute window to enjoy your meal. We tried quite a few items with some hit and miss. Just be warned they uses fresh thai chili pepper to season quite a bit and if you cannot eat spicy, there are non spicy dish that you might enjoy more. Spaghetti Cha Cha Cha ($128) seems to be the crowd favourite. Chicken Satay was meh... and the raw vegetables skewers that came with it was fail. You must not miss dessert! Mango Sticky Rice and Pandan layer cake both really good! They also offers Afternoon Tea Set which is much better value than dinner a la carte.

We had trouble making sense of the menu (c'mon, how much work has to go into a menu to make it LESS intuitive?). We could not get help because, no one speaks English, and the menu (even the English translation) does not make it clear as to what is what. We were given a whole bunch of pickled veggies (nice tasting) as we sat down. And served Chinese tea. Apparently, these were not complementary, and we were charged - ok, we get that, so how about letting us know? We ordered a few items (pork belly - good, fried pomfret - nicely done), and noodles for our daughter - all the food except the noodles was brought and consumed, but still no sign of the noodles. We asked for help, and the one person who knew English came and kept telling us "no problem, no problem" multiple times and walked away. The noodles came after we offered to pay and leave, as my daughter said she'd rather eat a protein bar than to wait any more... (does it take 30 m to make fried noodles, I wonder?). We asked for water, and they give us expensive bottled water (we want tap water, and of course, they dont speak English to understand that)...its all "no problem" when we ask them. I have seen French restaurants uniformly pull this trick into making you pay for water if you ask for tap water (apparently, tap water in France is not drinkable, especially in restaurants), but in Hong Kong, we had not seen such obvious cheating behavior. Also, the serve shark fin soup; which was shocking. Havent seen that ever before. Wonder what else they do to endangered animals? Wonder what the experience of the average Chinese patron is here..

This place seems massive for HK standards, sporting an open floor concept on the ground floor and a sprawling second level complete with tables for all party sizes. Spacious, yet inviting, it is easy to venture here for a night cap and then some. Decor wise, it's as eclectic as their theme (Japanese + Brazilian aka "Nipo-Brasileiro"). Funky colors and super interesting murals flood the walls and ceilings with lamps in all sizes and shapes. The furniture is equally as interesting; a multitude of colors and sizes make certain there is never a dull moment in the house. The bar is a sight to behold. Premium liquor line up the shelves and the ambient glow create a scintillating look, with a kind of variety that is virtually unmatched compared to many of the nearby nightlife spots. The prices match the premium tag, as most concoctions are in the upper $128+ range. So far, I've got my eye on the Brazuca Sour cocktail, which is tart and bitter, but balanced throughout each sip. Similar to the cocktails, the food is a mixture of Japanese izakaya and Brazilian fare, mainly in the form of small plates and skewers. The presentation is spot on, though the portion size leaves much to be desired. Price wise, it's up there but nothing has been impressive enough to warrant it. A quality spread of food that includes a soup, a few skewers with sides, and a few "big plates" could get very spendy ($1000+) very quickly. Hence, the combo meals during lunch time seem to provide the most value at $88 each. But despite the pricey everything they offer, the real issue I've had in the past has been the service. A lot of mishaps with my group bills and frankly some oddball issues with the speed of the food. Very rarely have I encountered any real warmth from the staff, whom seem to be fond of my credit card more so than providing a great experience overall.

They have a big Yume lion (Tokyo Mx TV) statue in the bar and some street art-style anime on the walls.

Café 360 is an Americanized Western café that serves fusion-type dishes. Located in Dragon Centre…read morein Sham Shui Po, Café 360's menu and food offerings certainly draw in a crowd. I would say that the interior (and cute exterior) is very typical to what you'd see in the hip, trendy LA Asian American cafés - pretty quotes on the wall, cute decorations, dim lighting. This is definitely a good date place - and you can roam the mall after! I came with my family during their afternoon teatime, thinking that there would be some specials offered around 2 PM. I think they had a lunchtime special, so even at 2 PM, the restaurant was packed with customers and guests waiting for a seat. After you're seated at a table, you have to go to the front counter to order your food. You're given a number, and when the food is ready the waiter/waitress will serve the food to your table. Since it's Hong Kong and you can split dishes without anybody really caring, we decided to order fewer items to be shared amongst ourselves and eat elsewhere if we were still hungry. Porcini rice with pork and kimchi in stone pot: $46 HKD and with an additional $12 HKD, we were able to add on a puff pastry soup. I have to say that the rice was really good. Very similar to the Chinese sausage in a stone pot, except this rice had flavoring and ingredients to it. Along with the pork belly and kimchi - flavoring of everything was on point, and it definitely filled us up. Cream of mushroom puff pastry soup: When the waitress brought our soup to us, one of them was slightly burnt, and without us even commenting, she said that she was going to ask the chef to remake a new one for us. I don't think we would have really minded, but that was really nice of her. The soup is definitely something you must try! Rich flavoring of mushroom in a creamy broth. The puff pastry was light and flaky, with really good flavor. As you break into the puff pastry, some of it drops into the soup so you get a crispy texture as you drink the creamy soup. I really liked it. Spaghetti Bolognese with puff pastry soup: This set lunch combination was $56 HKD or roughly $8 USD. I thought it was fairly priced, since it came with the puff pastry soup. The spaghetti wasn't too unique. Tasted very similar to how my mom cooks her spaghetti, except it was slightly sweeter. I probably wouldn't recommend ordering this dish if you're looking for something unique or different to try. Hot tea and hot milk tea - nothing special. The hot milk tea was pretty strong, but not as smooth as some of the other places I've tried. tl;dr - Overall, a really cute place to go for lunch or brunch. They also serve waffles and breakfast items. I really like the interior design of the place. The workers are super nice and friendly. Highly recommend if you're looking for a nice place for brunch!

They serve surprisingly good western food choice ! On the night that I went, the salmon steam tomato omelette rice ( omrice) was on special meaning it came with free drink and soup (!) We also ordered the baked spaghetti which was pretty tasty . Would highly recommend this place and would definitely want to try other things on their menu . Personally I think it is good value for the quality of food and the ambiance you'd get. But if you are talking bout about relativity, it is rather expensive compared to other choices you can get in Sham Shui Po .( I don't think anyone should travel all the way just to try this place )

Tack hsin was the forerunner to all the other hotpot restaurants out there- it was probably one of…read morethe first restaurants to offer hotpot 4 seasons of the year. Nowadays this is certainly nothing new but in the old days there were innovative enough to let people know that we can have hotpot all the time as long as we have the AC on. Riff raff over- so what is it about this place? Well if you notice that the street and the name of the place is the same in Chinese; yes, the restaurant is actually named after the street because this was the first one opened. How well they have done later on. The store itself is small in comparison to the other locations in the chain but it's actually ok compared to the old days. Service remains as bad as it has always been (I think most of us have come to expect that from this place). The food? Well you still get the choice between all you can eat in the other shops or you can order a la carte for the special seafood items and so on. As you will know from experience that all you can eat is fine if you are particular hungry and don't want to spend too much. Ordering a la carte will let you know that there's more to quantity and that's called quality....or is it? Maybe its just me nowadays, being spoiled by all you can eat restaurants so much so that I just don't see the value of ordering separately anymore. The bill will always end up with something ridiculous anyways. For me? Go all you can eat, order a hell of a lot of beef and beers- game on!

Freebies include of course wasabi and soy sauce, green tea and preserved ginger. There tofu curd with corn/ seaweed salad is sweet and yum. The mackeal apendizer is tasty. The salmon roe sushi is not at its freshest. Another plate of crayfish salad like sushi is bit too strong in the seasoning, making it bit too salty. The drinks like coca cola and jelly drinks were from Taiwan. There were way too much salmon sashimi and sushi on the revoling belt. At last, only a handful of plates are eaten by each of us. Looking around, other customers are more ferocious. The sitting time is limited to 40 minutes. The quene was quite quick but when we left, it was long.
