They're conveniently located on Temple, loaded with fresh seafood swimming in buckets / tubs, and semi-aggressive wait staff recruiting tourists by the handful to take part in the outdoor communal Chinese food experience. The two things that stuck out the most within the food, specifically how salty and how expensive everything was. Our list of dishes included: Yeung Chow Fried Rice (揚州炒飯), Black Bean Clams (豉椒炒蜆), Salt and Pepper Fried Fish (椒鹽魚片), Shrimp w/ Eggs (蝦仁炒蛋), Tea Egg + Tofu (茶葉蛋豆腐), and Mantis "Pissing" Shrimp (攋尿蝦). The most underwhelming was the pissing shrimp, which a little meat and a lot of shells. When our bill ($780HKD) came out, there was a little bit of sticker shock. Not all is terrible. Despite the greasy and salty food, they were constantly coming back to make sure we had what we needed. There was no shortage of help and they took our feedback well, but chuckled when we noted the salt (Could it really have been MSG?). They have a bunch of tables and the turnover is quick enough to where even waiting isn't a big deal. Heck, there's even unlimited napkins here. Any HK'er would surely appreciate that. Anyone who is looking to drink will surely have it here -- there are beer girls walking around looking to sell by the bottle or by the bucket. Perhaps next time (if there even is one), that'll be the route I choose when I feel like people watching and drinking along Temple Street.

It has been patronized by HK celebrities and movie stars. As usual, a reservation in advance on weekend must. When we got there, it's so busy already. We got seated right the way, however, it's so cozy with other table. The menu was well-printed and selections of food with pictures were great! The service was good but a bit slow side. Crispy deep fried tofu with house special sauce - One of the chef's signature dishes, the tofu outside so crispy and inside so smooth and soft. Delicious! The house special sauce a bit at sweet side, it's tasty. Pork ribs with rice cracker in strawberry sauce - Pork ribs braised perfectly and fusion with strawberry sauce was creative in Chinese cuisine . Stir fried Pea sprout - It's was good but not great. Pea sprout wasn't fresh and a bit overcooked. Rack of lamb in curry sauce - The rack of lambs seasoned well and deep fried a bit to make it crispy. It mixed with curry sauce would cover the gamy taste. Steamed seafood fried rice with lotus leaf - It's simple but really satisfied our stomach. Overall, all the dishes were good. I would say all the hype coz the HK celebrities and stars.

This particular branch is located in a mall in West Kowloon train station and was a bit hard to find, as you do need to locate the dedicated escalator to reach it on its own personal landing. The chain is rather commercialized, but has the process down and it was quite organized during our visit. Service was quite excellent in comparison to other establishments too. I mean, they actually refilled our water and tea! I want to say we ordered via an app/ QR code so no more carts. We ordered the classics as a little snack. Dim sum individual pieces were a little smaller but taste was still on point. Skins maybe a little hard on the har gow but taro/ turnip cakes were delicious because not too oily or overly dense. If Tim Ho Won is the only dim sum you have time for especially if you have a limited time in HK, it's still not a horrible option whatsoever.

We ordered a huge spread of classics: * Har gow (shrimp dumplings) * Siu mai * Phoenix claws (chicken feet) * Sticky rice in lotus leaf * Rice noodle rolls * Congee Everything tasted good, it hit the spot for a dim sum craving, but I wouldn't say it was outstanding or life-changing compared to some other famous spots in HK. It's definitely reliable comfort food, though. The service was good and efficient, which is always a plus during the morning rush. If you are staying in the Jordan area and need a convenient, traditional meal, this gets the job done!

I especially enjoy their mushroom dumpling, with a black skin made from olive pickled leaves. The soy marinated tofu is not smooth enough, and the cheung fu is on the firm side. We ordered the sweet and sour pan fried noodles. It's my first time trying it, I expected something like an orange sauce over noodles, but we were instead given a bowl of white sugar and a carafe of vinegar, and apparently this is how this dish is normally served. While the cake of noodles is crispy on the outside, it's a dense mess of soggy and mushy noodles inside. It would be better is the noodles was less cooked and better drained/dried before hitting the frying pan. Following the Chiu Chou traditional, kungfu tea is offered at the beginning and end of the meal. It's basically a very strong brew of tea in a miniature cup. As they bring only the cups instead of along with a teapot to pour at the table, the tea is not as hot as it should be. Despite the few misses, overall it's quite a nice selection of dim sum and generally good flavor.
