Smoked meat poutine
Avery W.

Everything was great except for the poutine and "spicy mayo". I came here with a friend and we ordered a grilled cheese with tuna (literally a tuna melt), and their Reuben to share. The Reuben was great, with its tender, juicy and flavourful smoked meats, and they used very good quality tuna (smooth, soft, seemingly made in-house with fresh tuna). The regular fries and yam fries were also crisp and well seasoned. Now to get to the negatives- 1. The poutine- when I've been away from Canada for a while, the word "poutine" stimulates a very strong reaction that consists of excitement and "GIMME GIMME GIMME!", assuming that the poutine is exactly what I'm expecting- crispy fries, melted, but chewy cheese curds, and a nice hot poutine sauce. Take away any of these three basics requirements and what you get is disappointment. Their poutine while delicious in terms of flavour, fell short on their cheese curds, which seemed more like actual cheddar instead of its cheese curds, hence there was a lack of chewiness coupled with a smidge of excess saltiness. The fries were fine, but like a normal poutine, you need to eat them quickly otherwise they'll go soggy. 2. Tabasco Mayo- don't get me wrong, I love mayo, and I like Tabasco, but when you put the two together it's a very confusing sensory experience where you start to wonder if something in your mayo has gone off. I'd have been behind a sriracha mayo, or a good chipotle mayo, but definitely not a mayo with Tabasco- it's just too acidic. Other than that, this place is great. I do need to try their desserts though.

I love sandwiches and Morty's does 'em right! It's hard to find Reubens in HK, so when I saw that they offer them here I had to try. I did a takeaway order with fries and by the time I got home 20 minutes later my fries were soggy. (Note to self: choose the salad option if I'm doing takeaway next time.) But luckily the sandwich held up and turned out great. I appreciated the thick stack of beef, since I've been disappointed many times in the past with sandwiches that only had 2-3 slices! The sauerkraut was spot on, and the pickles on the side made it all come together. Now, if you're American you might find these guys on the smaller side, but for HK/Asia standards I find them generous. Would love to eat-in next time, as the place itself is quite nice, and I'm pretty sure the fries would taste better, too. ;)

I actually wish the Reuben wasn't so good, so I would try other items! The first time I was a bit disappointed with the size of the Regular, so have learned to always go for the Large. French fries are a crisp perfect golden. Maybe not the best my NYC standards (may hold its own though), but definitely tops for out here.

Delicious New York Deli food. The interior really makes you feel like you are in new york. Four stars because the reuben could have used more thousand island dressing and sauerkraut, but all in all the meat was tender and delicious. Also got the California sandwich and it was perfectly balanced with the toppings and meat. The fries were some of the best fries i have ever had. Super crispy and hot. Sandwiches could definitely be shared between two people.

Original size of the turkey and avocado sandwich.
Maggie L.

I've been meaning to come here for some time now because they have turkey sandwiches! If you know mean, you know I'll eat anything turkey and it's tough because it's really rare to find turkey in Hong Kong. I ordered the original size of the turkey and avocado sandwich which is served on ciabatta. I was disappointed to see that it was still deli sliced turkey and not carved chunks of turkey, but the sandwich still hit the spot. I don't think I've ever said a turkey avocado sandwich didn't hit the spot. There was a flavored mayo on it, which was good but I could have done without because I don't really like sauces on my food. I'm boring like that. For around $115, I would say this is a treat that I would allow myself every once in a while. The sandwiches also come with your choice of salad or fries.

The Flying Pan - eggs ben with salmon on muffins

Western food! The…read moreflying pan has very reasonable prices, poor coffee, mediocre food, and good service. I ordered the salmon Benedict, Kenzie the pepper and onion Benedict. The eggs being over cooked, had a non runny yolk. I ordered sides of baked beans and corn grits which were both fine. Our plates came out with the sides switched up. Not a big deal. Not bad for a western breakfast in Hong Kong. Not great either. I've had better western breakfast in Shanghai, though you would think Hong Kong being the international hub it is, would have even higher standards for western foods. Eggs Benedict: 85HK. Unlimited coffee: 35HK. Using a restaurants own WiFi to post a 2 star review about them: Priceless.

I visited the Flying Pan for a quick breakfast before heading off to work, and first impressions…read morewere good- it's a small, but low-key place, and while the menus are a bit much to look at, the food was just right. I went with an Eggs Guacamole and a mango juice and I thought it was all pretty awesome overall. The food isn't overly expensive, you get fairly generous portions, and they definitely don't skimp on your free sides. The potatoes were a tad dry and I probably wouldn't go with them the next time around, but their grits aren't half bad. Hollandaise sauce is thick, yet runny, and the eggs were poached perfectly. The guacamole was offered in generous portions, and the only thing that I could possibly say they weren't generous with, in terms of portion size was my juice. That's fine though. I'll definitely be back to try a few other menu items.

We were walking through the mall when we saw this Cheesecake Factory. Having been to several in…read morethe USA, we had not realized there was one in HK. Having immersed ourselves in local cuisine for over a week, we thought it would be nice to have a change and testing the consistency of their food overseas. First thing we noticed - no line ups. The locations we been to in the USA often have long waits, but not here. The interior follows the same decor and style as you would see in the USA, so no differences there. The menu is similarly expansive, with a lot of the same familiar menu items we're familiar. Small difference - entrees come with a "free" soup here, like going to a cha chaan teng. We ended up getting two things: - Mandarin Chicken Salad: Good. In the USA, it's referred to as a Chinese Chicken Salad, but it's the same thing. Maybe a bit smaller portion size in HK. - Crusted Chicken Romano: Good. Just as I would imagine it to taste in the USA. - Soup: OK. I don't quite remember what the accompanying soup was, but it was fine. Not memorable. - Complimentary Bread: Good. They use the same recipes so the bread, especially the brown loaf are always a treat to eat. Service was good. Overall, it was a good meal. Although not identical, it's very close to the original in terms of look, service and food quality, although relatively more expensive.

I'm really baffled as to why this place has such a low rating…read more First of all, this is the only Cheesecake factory in Hong Kong, possibly in the region (there is one in Macau, but that's not part of the metro area). As such, there are really a lot of people who want to come here - during regular business hours this place is incredibly packed, and it'll typically be at least a 30 minute wait to get seats. The food here actually compares really well to the stuff you get at Cheesecake factory in America; anyone saying otherwise probably hasn't been around America enough. Cheesecake factory in America isn't like a mcdonalds or taco bell, where there really isn't any cooking going on. In places like these, all the food comes from a single source, and all they're doing is tossing it in the deep fryer (even then this is a slight simplification). At cheesecake factory in the USA, there is real cooking going on, and there can be a real difference from store to store in the quality of the food. The food in this Hong Kong location compares very well to some of the better ones I've been to in America. The menu, same as other locations, is huge, and a great testament to how they can pull off so many dishes in one restaurant. Some of my favorites are the pastas, the breakfast, and the tacos. The wait staff is all pretty good here, and it does give you a slight american feel in that everyone here speaks english. I actually have not been here yet and seen a cantonese waiter or waitress. The only real con of this place are the cakes. The cakes are actually shipped frozen all the way from America. I think this is a bit much. Yes, the cakes here are pretty good, but they could probably make something from scratch that is comparable. It doesn't make sense to me that all the food can be cooked on site, but the cake is impossible to replicate.

The inside is very cozy with the bar as the center. I read the menu is seasonal and completely changes. My guess is what we had in December 2025 is no longer on the menu. The two cocktails we had was very unique with unusual ingredients. I think it was called Like-Minded Creatures and Paradox. Somehow the unusual ingredients came together very nicely. They do not skim on the liquor. I had a good buzz after one drink. In case you're wondering, they do not serve food. Just snacks/chips. Our server was wonderful. She didn't hover, but came to our table as soon as we make eye contact. I recommend this cocktail spot. We had a good time. Not fit for large/big groups. Perfect for 2-4 friends.

The atmosphere is intimate and fun, making it easy to see why this bar has earned such a strong reputation. Every drink felt like an experience rather than just a cocktail. That said, I was surprised by how aggressively the staff pushed for an additional tip after already adding a service charge to the bill. It felt out of place, especially in Hong Kong where that is generally not the expectation. It honestly felt more like something I would expect in the United States. Overall, the drinks and concept were excellent, but the awkward tipping interaction took away from an otherwise great experience.

Oh geez, I'd been putting off visiting this wing joint, and of all motivating factors, it happened…read moreto be my mom who finally dragged me into this place. First things first: great dips! I miss having a blue cheese dip, and this place delivered. The wings were also beautifully a seasoned and succulent, making this place an excellent place to go before or between drinks (Provided you're still sober enough to order and follow instructions, of course). The buffalo wings were great, as were their Thai wings. Back then, they also had this wing and drink combo which felt like a pretty solid deal, especially since beer is arguably among the best complements for wings. I do appreciate the quirky decor and the relatively clean bathroom facilities, and while the place was packed, serving staff were still quick and attentive.

***Wingman - Best Chicken Wings in Town??...YES SIR!!***…read more Wingman claims to have the "best chicken wings in town"..... that's quite a tall claim for anybody to make! But I tried five of their flavors....AND THE VERDICT Yes Sir! I might've broken my personal record for most wings eaten!THIRTY WINGS (five flavors...six wings of each flavor).... and I could still down a milkshake at another joint later.... CALIFORNIA STYLE WINGS with RAW GARLIC and PARSLEY were my favorite (pictured above). The garlic and parsley came out strong in the first bite and that's what I loved (garlic flavor works great on any food I guess). This one was the HERO of the menu.... (Metaphorically speaking....the perfect VILLAIN could be the next flavor that I tried - CAROLINA REAPER WINGS.... coz it was SOOOOOOO SPICY ... and of course delicious too!!) CAROLINE REAPER WINGS had a spicy level of 4 out of 5...... so BEWARE .... and better be ready to wipe that sweat from your forehead . The other three flavors were AWESOME in their own right.... but I guess they can be overshadowed by the California wings and Carolina Reaper wings. The other three flavors I tried - WINGS with BBQ DRY RUB; CAJUN STYLE DRY RUB WINGS; HOISIN HONEY GLAZED AND SESAME WINGS.

While I love this place and some people I've…read moreintroduced it to have called it my 'canteen' because it's so close to where I live and the fact that I order from here all the time; the space is small and I don't know if writing more positive reviews will just make it all the harder for me to sit and order. However, they've since moved to a bigger space so I'm ok with sharing my not so secret place. I've tried almost everything on the menu and basically everything there is good. The burgers though-they have burgers with chicken, which doesn't count but are still delicious. Why come to a burger place though and not order beef? The beef here is fresh and delicious and it's cooked medium rare-medium. I only eat burgers at that level if I trust the beef to be high quality. I always get the burger here at that level. Price wise, compared to what you can get at other burger places it's just...you can't compare. While other places have a quality burger you pay-what you get here for the price is ridiculous. If you think that's subjective then they have a set for 68 bucks carry out during lunch: burger, fries, drink. It was so good that when I was home recovering from surgery I ordered it 3 days straight. Seriously, just go see for yourself.

When I opened it up I realized the entire inner burger was RAW. They cut the chicken meat into small pieces and form a patty that way. There were literally chunks of raw chicken in the center. Good thing I put a flashlight to the burger. Make sure you check your burgers before you eat them... The lady cooking should have come out and apologized for basically poisoning their customer. But nothing.

Wow! Super surprised there is a yelp entry for this restaurant!…read more This place I feel is not in the most ideal area. Personally, I don't like coming to LKF to have dinner or lunch or whatever. Still, I can't fault them too much for the location, and many people have actually done the same since there are a number of good restaurants in LKF area. This place is primarily a steak place, though they have a few other things to choose from as well. I believe lunch times they offer a AYCE sort of option, where you get a main and then the salad bar is buffet. I've been to it before and it's pretty good. I've heard however since COVID they have changed it somewhat. The other night I came and got the seafood guazzetto, which is about $300 HKD, and has a bunch of different things such as fish, octopus, clams, etc. Lots of seafood essentially. Other things I tried included the sides of brussel sprouts, mushrooms, bruschetta, some of my brother's sirloin steak, some of the fish of the day (halibut?). Overall, the food is quite nice. I will say, they tend to use a bit too much butter/oil here. I know this is kind of true whenever you eat out, but here it is definitely noticeable. I would recommend them to tone it down just a little bit, since there are always ways to spice up your dish without going overboard on the fats

I came here for dinner three nights ago, and I'm still full from it!…read more The five of us shared bruschetta (it comes with four but they added one more for us), the cured meats (a great curated selection), and the meatballs for appetizer. They also brought out some veggies and dip before we ordered (which I had never seen done before) along with bread. The highlight of the night was the steaks of course. We shared the florentina (aka the porterhouse. A 32oz wagyu beast) and a filet. The meats came on a cutting board already cut, so the sharing was easy. They were perfectly seasoned, tender, and flavorful. We had roasted veggies and creamed spinach as sides. The latter was addictive! Chef Todd was around to explain their meat selection when I walked around to check them out in the case. We didn't get to send our regards to him, as we stayed late and were the last to leave. Todd, if you're reading this, hail to the chef! We went without a reservation and were seated right away. It was a Thursday night, but we had gotten there around 9 which might explain the vacancy. It's a great option for groups and celebratory dinners :)
