The daily soup and pasta of the day are both simple with no surprise. However, you can enjoy a nice lunch place, not too noisy, comfortable seatings, good services during the busy hours.

On the other hand, the place could be perfect for romantic dinner and after-work hangout, which is rarely to be found this area. We walked through the trendy bar featured with a ceiling-high honeycomb shaped back showcase, and came to the upstairs dining area. The interior is in classic Italian style with comfortable chairs and big square tables. As we were told the dish would be in big portion, so we skipped the entree and ordered just fresh handmade pasta and signature pizza. The pasta served after half hour we ordered, but it was worth waiting! Two main dishes were delicious, but we were more impressed by the Vongole pasta - you could taste the freshness and unique texture, while the source was on point. If you are fancy in cocktails, Mojito would be a great choice and surprisingly matched with the Italian food! Otherwise, Osteria Felice has wide range of wine in glass - ask their friendly staff for recommendations.

Granted the bar manager is French so we got along right off the bat but still, its a lovely hole-in-the-wall sort of place. (yes many French expats come here including me.) LQV located in Wanchai near Admiralty is a popular place for expats and locals alike. Mostly frequented by bankers (it is located next to their work), it has a quaint and homie feeling to it. Serving mostly French wines, it offers very good selection and tasting menu. The cheese and meat platter are delicious and each time, i've had drinks there, i'm always assured for a good time. We booked the whole place one for a meeting and service was superb. They even offer discount if you buy bottles to take away. The shop is small so if you feel like trying a place away from the main street thats more discreet and simple, look no further and try LQV.

If you are in the area, it is worth a try!

Here you can find a long list of white, red, and rose wines (and one dessert moscato) as well as a few options for nibbles. Namely, jamon platter, cheese platter, pate platter, or mixed platter - which all come with a few slices of bread and are a bit customizable: which type of cheese and pate you want is pairable with the wines. The reason that this location does not get 5 stars is because for 140 dollars, we got a very small serving when we ordered the mixed platter. Oh, and the place has a serious mosquito problem. I get bitten easily but even my friends who don't noticed the clouds of mozzies hanging around our table despite the anti-mosquito-smoke thingey lit at our feet (which I had to ask for.) Get one of those purple-light mosquito-blasters, people! Seriously. Otherwise, the other 4 stars were earned through great ambience and very good service - two different servers gave perfect information and advice for wines, and our party of 5 was easily accommodated.

I was excited to try Carbone's Hong Kong location since my whole family love to go to their NYC…read morelocation. Luckily it was much easier to reserve a table in Hong Kong than the one in NYC. First off it was kind of hiding inside a commercial building. It required an uphill climb before reaching there. If you are planning to take your elderly friends or parents, I strongly encouraged taking a taxi there. We were greeted by a friendly hostess as soon as we stepped out of the elevator. The whole place was elegant and tasteful arts were hanging on the walls throughout the whole dinning room. It was lavishly decorated. The staffs were attentive and friendly. However I found it funny that the majority of the staffs only spoke English. It was kind of ironic that we had to speak English in a Cantonese speaking island. Of course we had to order Caesar Salad and Spicy Rigatoni because they are the two popular dishes at Carbon. Caesar salad was made in front of you and the waiter told us he flown to their NYC location to master the skill of making this salad. I was ensured everything was as good as their NYC location. The salad was fresh and crunchy; it was a combination of Baby Romaine lettuce, garlicky croutons and shaved cheese tossed in a rich tangy creamy dressing. Every bite was covered with a right amount of freshly made flavorful dressing. The mouth watering Spicy Rigatoni was so irresistible. The creamy spicy tomato sauce blended beautifully with the pasta. It was so delicious and addictive. I would not leave Carbon without eating its Spicy Rigatoni. We also tried the Veal Parmesan but it was kind of a disappointment because the meat was too dry and tough. The saving grace was that it was still full of flavor. We did have a good dinning experience there. I think it is a good restaurant for a romantic dinner or special occasions. It was as pricy as their NYC location but the food wasn't as good though. I just couldn't resist to compare both places. So for all the Carbon fans, it would be nice to visit this location because you might have a different opinion about it.

The food is really quite good and the service is also excellent as well. The pricing is where your eyes will jump out of your head. An order of meatballs will set you back 268 hkd and a side of broccoli over 130 hkd. The food is good but it's tough to stomach the price tag if you aren't here on a business meal. Food: 4.25 stars Service/atmosphere: 4.5 stars Value: 3 stars Overall: 4 stars Recommendations: bananas a la rum, rib eye Diana, baked clams, vodka sauce rigatoni On my latest visit to Carbone, I came for the set lunch. It's enough for two people but if you are really hungry you may want to order another appetizer. The set comes with your choice of a starter or pasta, a main, and a choice for dessert. We opted for the rigatoni with vodka sauce, the ribeye and bananas a la rum. 1) Rigatoni with vodka sauce- coming to a American Italian restaurant and not ordering this seemed like a shame. Good thing is that the dish is down well. The vodka sauce is nice and creamy and the pasta is cooked well and had a little bite to it. 2) Rib eye Diane - The rib eye is cooked and served in a really luscious mushroom sauce. The sauce really makes the dish. The steak itself was slightly a bit tough and had a few cuts with too much fat. However, I did really enjoy this dish. 3) Bananas a la rum- my favorite thing I had. Bananas are flambéd in a rum sauce and then poured over three scoops of ice cream and cake. Vanilla cookies are crumbled over the dessert to provide some texture and crunch for the dessert. This is really delicious and is a must order.
