I highly recommend this restaurant in a city of fabulous food.

While visiting Hong Kong I met up with a friend that took me here for dinner. The place is nice and…read morenot too crowded. Great for conversations and friendly meetings. The atmosphere is business casual and somewhat more upscale than local eateries since it's located inside one of the ubiquitous shopping mall buildings found on every corner in HK's touristy Kowloon TST area. On to the food. It's okay but I've had better dim sum even in the US. The whole mean came out to around $250HKD which is about $30USD for food without any additional beverages besides the standard pot of tea for the table. I think you are paying for the prime real estate rather than the food With so many authentic local eateries found on every corner, I think this is a pass for me for the future

The food is good but it depends on what you get. The ambiance is NOT romantic or quaint in any way…read more I'd come back but I wouldn't go out of my way for it Food: GET THE ROAST PORK BUN. This is the best roast pork bun I've ever had - hands down. Otherwise, why are you here? It's what got them their Michelin star. I got the ha gow, ha cheurng (rice noodle wrap with shrimp), fried noodles. The waiter said don't bother with their short ribs or radish cake. Price: pennies. For 5 dishes it was 10 USD. Cheap af. Ambiance: it's like eating on the subway train when the floor is wet. Do not go to the bathroom unless it's #1. You've been warned. Bring your own napkins. Service: slam dunk service - all business. In and out in under 20 min. Wham bam thank you ma'am

This chain definitely earned their Michelin Star. It was affordable and delicious. My friends and I…read morecame here and basically ordered their whole menu. I have nothing bad to say about all the items that we had. Each one of us paid about 80 HKD and was able to try 13 different items. The quality of everything was top notch and comparable to bougie dimsum in America where each dish would be $5-$7 USD. The item that stood out to me was the bbq pork bun. The breading was soft, bbq pork was tender and full of flavor and the top was sweet. Overall I thought that the flavors and texture were spot on and made this a wonderful plate. Can't wait for Tim Ho Wan to come to America. Hopefully they retain their pricing as well.

We were staying nearby and decided to try both lunch and dinner…read more We opted for the a la carte menu as we wanted to try specific dishes and for us, it was the best choice. Dishes listed and ranked by best to least: 1. Dim Sum Trio (Steamed Pork Dumpling with Lobster, Steamed Fresh Shrimp Dumpling with Bamboo Shoot, Steamed Fresh Shrimp Dumpling with Asparagus and Scallop): Classis dumpings cooked perfectly and made with high quality ingredients. It's a must order. 2. Deep-fried Fresh Crab Claw Stuffed with Minced Shrimp: Crispy, crunchy and big chunky shrimp inside. Also delicious! 3. Signature Barbecue Combination- Honey-glazed Barbecued Pork and Roasted Pork Belly: The classic dish of Hong Kong. Not quite as good as places like Mott 32 but very good. 4. Deep-fried Shrimp Toast with Salted Egg Yolk: it's a classic dish and done well. A single big shrimp is used instead of minced parts 5. Deep-fried Glutinous Dumplings with Pork, Shrimp and Carrot Juice: The insides were delicious but the dumpling was only warm and not as crisp as it should be. 6. Shanghai-style Pork Soup Dumplings: good but not special. 7. Simmered Seasonal Vegetables and Mushrooms in Fish Broth: also good but not special. Overall it was a great experience and we only tried a fraction of the menu. We'll be back for more!

One-Michelin-starred dim sum! Couldn't miss the opportunity to check it out during our visit to…read moreHong Kong. This is just sit-down, made-to-order dim sum, rather than traditional cart-style. They have a couple of set menus, although we just did a la carte so we could get exactly what we wanted. We had a large party so were able to split and try quite a few dishes luckily! I don't think anything really wowed me, but each dish was pretty consistently good and the overall cost at the end wasn't bad. To be honest, I'm not sure what makes it stand out so much to get a Michelin star, but I still think it's a great place for a large group meal if you're looking for something with a less casual vibe. This was definitely the most elevated ambiance out of all the dim sum I've had just based on the interior design and how spaced out the tables were. I don't think service was as attentive as a lot of other Michelin-starred restaurants, but I think that's just how dim sum is, and I'm honestly not a huge fan of the overly attentive service at a lot of nice restaurants anyways. Overall, amazing value for a one Michelin star dining experience. Good dim sum at decent prices, and suitable for large groups.

We sat there for a good 15 minutes just waiting. We saw the dim sum cart so we thought it'd eventually get to our table. We then saw waiters bringing out plates to other tables so then we got super confused. Luckily there was a nice couple sitting next to us that could speak fluent English. He explained this place and with newer dim sum places you scan a QR code and order. He also went through the selection on what's good and what portion is big, etc. I swear we lucked out that night with this kind gentleman otherwise we'd be sitting there clueless for hours. Food was top notch. You know often times you order mindlessly (literally in our case because there were no photos to reference to so we went by the names and the gentleman's recs) and there will be some misses. Not here! Everything was delicious. Literally all. You can't go wrong with anything here, take my word. Just remember to scan the QR code to order so you don't sit there cluelessly like us.

Great dim sum spot! My friend recommended this place when…read morewe were trying to figure out where to go for dinner. They were packed but we were seated quickly. Everything we ordered was absolutely delicious! I love the cute faces on a few of the dumplings. It was also such a reasonable price. For 4 of us, we split the bill and it was about $15 each. We ordered a lot - probably around 10, if not more, dishes. Note of caution: The water with lemon is not a water with a slice of lemon, but also has sugar on the bottom that visibly separates and needs to be mixed. It was interesting.

We did not know it was a 2 star Michelin restaurant, and I was a bit apprehensive at the beginning, because we did not want to spend too much money on food on this trip. Upon our request, we were seated right in front of the Harbour view and were able to see the light show that start around 8pm. The most beautiful view of HK at night! We opted not to order the duck, which needs to be ordered 24 hour in advance and although I am sure quite delicious is quite pricy (HK$1,438+10%). Reservation in this place is a must! Highlights were the Wok-fried Wagyu with Green Peppers, Mushrooms and Garlic, Wok-seared Chicken Fillet with Lemon Sauce The server was so kind as to give us half servings so we could "sample" some of the more expensive items, add fried rice for substitution with the meat dishes and free desert. This flexibility in providing half portion and substitution is something i've rarely experience in a Michelin restaurant. Overall, we payed $US240 (1,900 Hong Kong Dollar) which includes the 10% service charge for two people for a michelin 2 star restaurant for an unforgettable meal! If I return to HK, I will definitely come back and try their dim sum.

In order to be seated, you have to request a ticket. We had to wait quite a while, so we started off grabbing a few drinks at the Outback because they had a bar. No rules, just right...because they had a full bar. There are no carts in this dim sum joint (at least when we came) and grabbed a few items from each page of the extensive menu. Tried the fried won ton skins, stuffed bell peppers, these really dense balls of gluten, dumplings, buns, lots of rice, flat noodles with beef and veggies, vermicelli with octopus and pork, and short ribs (tasted like chicken). Overall, it was pretty good. I had no idea that ordering a glass of water with your meal wasn't a common thing, so if you do ask, be prepared for the perplexed looks from the waitstaff. It's worth noting that we came with people that spoke the language, so that helped. Four chopsticks up!

This is one of the places I have to visit during my stay in Hong Kong for breakfast, snack time, and/or dinner. One of the dimsum you must try is the Rice Roll with Crispy Shrimp. The rice roll is thin and the crispy shrimp added a nice contrast. Also, try the Radish Cakes serve with chili sauce and Chicken Feet. The opening hours for this place are from 730AM-11PM. Also, 5HKD is automatically added to your bill in lieu of service charge. This is for the hot tea they serve...which you cannot refuse.

The Har gao had a very thin shell, but it also wasn't fragile. It wasn't too doughy or glutenous, and the shrimp was perfectly snappy and had a very fresh delicious flavor.

I thought the tea was just okay, but people seem to always get tea with dim sum so when in HK... We didn't have to wait for a table and the place is michelin rated. It may be a bit more expensive than places in the area, but that is what you get with a good reputation, marketing and a michelin rating. I will say it was nice inside and it had air con and there was some thought that went into the ambiance. Anyway, it was still affordable from an American perspective and I enjoyed everything.

I decided on two dim sum spots to try on this trip with Tim Ho Wan being the first. I came 6 PM on a weekday and it wasn't busy, we were quickly seated as there were plenty of available tables. Since we were not too hungry, we ordered the Shrimp Cheung Fun, Har Gow, and Siu Mai. It took around 5 mins for the dim sum to come out and the food looked good. However, it really seemed like some flavors were missing the umami taste that you would expect of dim sum. Unfortunately, this turned out to be a disappointing meal, so I would recommend trying other dim sum spots when in Hong Kong.
