This restaurant has been Michelin-starred for over 12 years. The prices are definitely on the higher end, but the food is absolutely worth it. I ordered the pork liver and fish belly congee, shrimp wontons in chili oil, and the steamed chicken with rice. The steamed chicken was not what I expected - they use peppercorn sprigs, and BOY, I was shocked. It was my first time having it, and my entire mouth was tingling. At first, I thought I was having an allergic reaction... then I realized it was the chicken! I had to order coconut juice ASAP. Overall, the chicken was very delicious - tender and juicy. The congee was thick and creamy, and the pork liver and fish belly were cooked to perfection. The shrimp wontons were also amazing! The service was great, and the space is very clean, well-decorated, and spacious. read more

The service is prompt as to Hk standard and ambiance was excellent. Wish there was a similar one in the USA. I had wontons and beef stew. One of my overall favs in the area! read more

This place is well known for its wonton noodles - firm, bouncy thin noodles with succulent wontons filled with large shrimps in thin wrappers, in a delicious, delicate broth. At this place, I suppose to increase its appeal and bottom line, there's a wide selection of other dishes - congee and other noodles/rice dishes, as well as entrees to go with rice. The dishes we ordered are pretty good, and the Okra w Eggs is exceptional! It's a simple dish of sliced okra with eggs, but they managed to cook the eggs very tenderly, with salted egg yolks added for more color and flavor, elevating the dish to a whole new level. read more

Another find on Yelp and it was delicious. Great menu options and with four of us we tried quite a few selections. It was nice to find a place to grab a bite after shopping. The hot tea served was refreshing and never ending. From the soups, dumplings and rice, it was all good and the service was impeccable. We talked about returning during our stay because it was so good, but we never made it back. Make sure you stop by if you are in the area and enjoy a great meal. read more

Food: 3.5/5.0 Service: 2.5/5.0 Value: 2.0/5.0 Decor: 3.5/5.0 Overall: 3.5/5.0 Nice little spot in the IFC mall. Portions are relatively small, and the pricing is a tad high. Definitely a premium to what you can get in the street shops in Central. There will be a wait during peak hours. I'd be willing to come back, but wouldn't go out of my way for it. read more

Hoo boy, this was definitely once of the pricier places I visited in HK that felt overpriced for the amount of food served and the quality of service. Located in a mall, this place was pretty easy to find. My friends and I were hungry after a long day of sightseeing, and seeing how this place opened late, we came here in hopes of eating a tasty late night dinner. Upon being seated, we were pretty excited to see the extensive menu (which had English on it). With various noodle and rice dishes offered, along with dim sum, it was a bit tough to decide. Finally, after much debate, all of us were ready to order. It did take some standing up and staring at the various wait staff to notice us, so do note that you will have to try your best in catching anyone's attention at the restaurant. For food, I ordered fried noodle rolls with the XO sauce. My friends got other noodle dishes and overall, for the price you pay, it's not worth the small portion. The food itself was alright (street food version of the noodles are a whole lot better and cheaper) but service was meh. Also, do keep in mind that nothing is for free at this place. If you touch your tea, you pay. If you ask for a cup of water, you pay. The only thing that could be considered as free was a cup of ice, but even then, to secure some ice, you will have to endure some incredulous looks from the staff as they try to process your request. Overall, this place is so-so and if you're in need of a meal and want a pretty setting, this would be a good to stop by. Otherwise, if you can hold your hunger, I would recommend trying other hole in the walls cafes of HK or some street food. read more

正斗粥麵專家Tasty Congee & Noodle Wantun Shop is decent if you looking for a restaurant inside IFC to enjoy some Cantonese classic dishes. Both the Wantun Noodle 正斗鮮蝦雲吞麵 and Beef Rice Noodle 干炒牛河 we ordered were just OK or even Meh. Nothing I would want to come back again because of the food. But the location is convenient and the environment is clean and seating is comfy. Their original location何洪記 does has a Michelin 1 Star rating. Maybe I should give them a try instead next time. Maybe Michelin is giving them a Recommendation based on the service and environment? both which is really good. read more

Our last meal before we hopped on the plane. Needed something gentle and warm and were advised to stop here before hopping on airport express. Was worried about the air but it went by quickly. So there is a machine with a touch screen that you sign in for and get assigned a letter/number combo. And then when your table is ready it loudly calls out your number in a computerized voice. There was no sharing tables or anything. You will be charged for tea even though you don't drink tea strangely but whatever. We had chicken and mushroom congee which was nicely flavored and easy to digest plus the beef stir fried noodles which ended up being just a delicious chow fun. Simple and delicious and the setting was really nice and bright. Plenty of servers and a good stop before heading home. read more

We decided to dine here before taking the airport express to HKG, due to its convenient location in the upper section of the IFC mall. Prices were above average, as expected; however, everything was really flavorful and definitely well-worth it. We will definitely return to this particular location if we're looking for a quick/solid meal in or around the IFC. **The hot paste that came with the turnip cake (蘿蔔糕) blew my mind. I initially asked for soy paste, which is what I usually use with turnip cake--but this sauce was surprisingly really, really good! I would love to find what it is so I could use at home. If anyone knows, please do share. Thank you! read more

(Note: this review pertains to the airport food court location ONLY) Really stumbled onto this place by accident... Whenever i come to Hong-Kong, i seek out most of the Michelin rated/recommended places to see if they are all that are cracked up to be - e.g. Tim Ho Wan Dim Sum, Wing Wah Noodles, but this place was a pleasant surprise to find, at the HKG international airport, no less. We were at the tail end of our trip leaving through Terminal 1, and we found this gem a few trips ago up on the top floor at the central food court area leading to all the departure gates. It wasn't until this trip to Hong-Kong where i was able to sample a lot of different places that sell won ton noodles in Hong Kong island that i was able to objectively say without a doubt far and away the best of them all. I really like the bamboo egg noodles (very firm) at Wing Wah as its difficult to find places that prepare it this way anymore. But i have got to say that Tasty Congee has as good if not better Won Ton noodles than anywhere i have found in Hong-Kong. But not only that, their menu consists of everything i love about Cantonese-style food. Its all here: Roasted Duck, Roasted Pig, BBQ port (Char Siu) combo rice plates, assorted Dim Sum (Har Gau, Siu Mai, BBQ pork buns), assorted Lo Mein, Beef Chow Fun, Pan Fried Egg noodles, Congee, Fried Rice plates, and of course their specialty Won-Ton Egg Noodle soup. I ordered the Won Ton noodle soup along with the Beef Stew Lo Mein (soup on side), and with 30 minutes before my flight, i got hungry again. I took out BBQ pork/Chicken rice plate with Chinese Broccoli along with Beef Chow Fun for the flight, and ordered one last Won Ton noodle soup before getting on the plane :-) The service is N/A as they call your number when your food is ready. But they are fast and efficient in getting the food out. You can tell they have their process down like a well oiled machine. The food lines are long, but they move fast. I'm a big fan of this place. I hate to say this, but because i'm such a huge Cantonese foodie, this place may very well be my favorite place to eat in all of Hong-Kong. And i've been to Hong-Kong plenty of times (also born here). read more

I went here during a layover in Hong Kong. what a great find! I had the wonton noodle soup, egg rolls, cha-su bao, fried wantons and stewed pear for dessert. It was a fantastic meal. Way too much for one person. The wonton soup was enough to satisfy me but wanted to try more. The service was fast. Staff was a little abrupt but typical of the service you will get in Hong Kong and China. The restaurant itself is small but very nice. I'll definitely come back. Next time, I'll try the congee. read more

We grabbed lunch at Tasty Congee one of the days we were in Hong Kong. It's in a section of the IFC mall that doesn't seem to have any shops outside of a handful of restaurants, so it can feel a bit drab when you get to where the restaurant is located, but you won't get lonely - the line for getting in for a bite builds pretty quickly. We were lucky enough to get seated right away (around 11:30 AM on a weekend), and once inside, the service remains speedy if not that personal. I didn't get the sense, though, that the servers spoke great English, but they seemed to understand what we said. However, I did get my wonton soup quite late because they missed the order - even though my wife ordered the same thing and it came out within minutes. The food itself was solid, although I didn't find it remarkable enough to understand why folks would wait in line for it. It's reasonably affordable, which may be part of the draw, but the wonton noodle soup I had was solid; I found the wontons to be very good, with the kind of very thin skin that I like, but the noodles were a bit crunchy, for lack of a better way of putting it. The beef noodles were also pretty good, but they were drowned in an MSG-heavy sauce, and the beef - while quite good - was also very scarce in the dish...so it ended up being a heavily-sauced noodle dish that was distinctly lacking in anything else. For cheap eats and a fast meal, Tasty Congee is a solid spot to go, but it was not as memorable as some of the other spots we had bites at around town. I wouldn't mind going back, but I'd probably seek out some other options first. read more

Food (***** out of *****); Notice the delicately thin skinned wantons. You can see through the wonton wrapper. These are the extra big ones, called Shui Gaw. It did not have as much shrimp eggs in the soup as Chee Kei (池記) so the broth is less pungent, but the wontons has some dried scallops inside, so the wontons are a bit pungent in flavor. It also has bits of mushrooms and bamboo shoots inside, making it very complexly flavorful. I did not have a chance to sample their other signature dish, the congee. However, I did have their deep fried bread stick wrapped with rice pasta (Zhaliang). Other places that serve this often use stale bread. They use freshly fried bread inside freshly steamed rice pasta. Nothing special as they serve this in other Chinese restaurants, but their quality is consistent. You'll never get a bad zhaliang from them. Service (***** out of *****); Unlike other Canton restaurants, the service is stellar. The manager picked up a napkin off the floor. The servers will refill your tea. Very impressive. Atmosphere (***** out of *****); Nice open kitchen and tastefully decorated. No table sharing. English menus. Conclusion (***** out of *****); For great wontons and stellar service, try Tasty Congee & Noodle Wantun Shop! read more

I am a fan! Tasty has several branches and this one is so conveniently located in IFCmall just above the airport express counter! The branch in Wanchai just got a Michelin star this year The food here is solid and the service here is ok for the HK standard. Price is not too high. Basically the famous dishes here are wonton and congee but I also got dimsum items and they were all good. The liushabao was great and the ha gaw was pretty decent as well. read more

Tasty is probably my favorite restaurant in IFC. Most restaurants are too upscale and expensive for just a quick and casual meal, leaving Tasty as one of the few options for a reasonably priced fare. Whenever my mother and I send my aunt off to the airport, we always come to the Central station, where she checks in her luggage, and then head for a last meal at Tasty. From the check-in area, all you have to do is take the elevator to the 3rd floor. Don't bother exiting the area, going out and then walking into IFC through its main entrance, because you'll just be making a huge round if you do that! Tasty gets really popular around lunch and dinner times. You'll have to get a number and wait outside until it's called - don't miss your number because it will probably be a while before you can get a table again! My mother, my aunt and I usually order some dimsum to share, and the zha leung (fried doughsticks wrapped with rice rolls) as well. This is one of my favorite dishes here - the rice rolls are thin and soft, providing a nice contrast to the crunchy inside. I also get a wonton noodles for myself, which is the signature here. Needless to say, this is really good - the dumplings are nice and tender and the portion is just right for me. They also do lots of different congees here too. I would definitely recommend coming to Tasty if you're at IFC, or if you're planning to check in at the central station, come early to make time for a meal here. Just be sure to come early enough - the wait for a table can be pretty insane, especially if you're here on a weekend! read more

Great cheap and casual meal in a nice environment at Tasty Congee and Noodle. The menu is huge and a little overwhelming. I like that they give you a paper menu to check off which dishes you wish to order. There were some specials that appeared on the menu as well, which we requested on the side. We were offered tea, but there is a small charge for this. 5HKD per person. We were also given a two special appetizers for the New Years holiday, but we realized that there was also a 10HKD charge for each dish of this this as well. Also not a big deal, but sneaky sneaky. The congee is very tasty, and with this you must order the fried dough. My favorite congee by far comes with preserved egg and pork, and this dish did not disappoint. It was loaded up generously with slices of black egg and tender pork. The fried dough was definitely the best I've had ever; extremely crispy and fresh, making it the perfect partner to the delicious congee. Another favorite of mine was the beef chow fun with black bean sauce. The noodles are extremely silky in texture! Definitely beats any chow fun I could get at home. The location in the IFC mall is super convenient and pleasant. The atmosphere is nice and clean, and the service, while not the friendliest, is extremely efficient. Although there may be a queue, the lines move quickly and the food comes out fast. Worth a visit for a post shopping snack! read more

One of our best meals in Hong Kong. As the name of the restaurant would suggest, you should order congee and noodles here. Honestly, it was some of the best congee and chow fun I've had in my life. The congee was so silky smooth, rich and very flavorful. The dry fried chow fun was delicious. I could eat here all day everyday. read more

Good wonton is hard to find...especially in the States. That being said, I always try to get my fill before I head back. After looking at their portions (the girl next to me ordered a congee & wonton), I decided to also order several dishes... just to get a little taste of everything. Ordered: Plain Congee - There's a skill to making plain congee taste this good. Broth is full of flavor and each grain of rice was simmered to that consistency where the congee is not too thick and not too watery. Large Wonton Noodles - Bouncy noodles, flavorful broth, and delicate wontons. Maybe a little smaller than Tsim Chai Kee's wontons, but still delicious nonetheless. Crispy shrimp, flavorful pork, and thin silky wonton wrappers. Rice Paper Wrapped Fried Dough - Fresh and crispy. Rice paper was thin and soft. The fried dough was crispy and airy, accompanied by dipping sauce. I was able to finish the congee and wonton without a problem. The fiance and I split the fried dough. The restaurant is clean and orderly, with a lot of wait staff...making the wait go by pretty quickly. Order a couple dishes and eat up! read more

Today, I ate the silkiest and most flavorful congee that I've ever had in my life. I wonder for how many hours the congee had to simmer before it got to that level of smoothness. In addition to the congee from here, I had to try one of their dim sum dishes. I chose lo baak gou (蘿蔔糕), one of my favorites. It was cut into thirds - like chopstick manageable pieces. And they took the time to pan crisp each side of each strip. That added the extra smokiness and crunchiness that I crave. It all was a pretty good value for the price, considering the ambience of the place and its location. The service was above average for HK. If we were able to get the attention of the numerous staff easier, the service would be great (for HK). read more

Up on the 3rd floor of the IFC mall, we walked around the mall a few times before finding this place. It's a pretty big restaurant in the lovely IFC mall. We ordered the congee with chicken and mushroom, and it was amazing! The congee was super tasty with light and delicate flavors. This restaurant has seriously ruined all other congee for me. We tried to eat the chicken but it was basically just bones with some meat still on it for flavor. The wonton and noodle soup was great as well. The broth was also really tasty but not super oily or salty. The steamed honey bbq pork rolls were so good! The filling was the best part! Now excuse me while I reminisce about the congee and the bbq pork rolls. read more

Tasty Congee Noodle Wantun Hong Kong 正斗粥麵專家 is located inside Hong Kong International Airport in departure Terminal 1 / Level 7 Food Court. If you ever have a bloody long layover and is wondering 'What is good to eat at the Hong Kong Airport?' then a simple yet satisfying bowl of wonton is your answer. Tasty is actually part of a chain and has various locations throughout HK: 圓方店 Elements Shop, 中環店 Central Shop, 九龍灣店 Kowloon Bay Shop, 跑馬地店 Happy Valley Shop, etc. When I first got my bowl I wondered how many wontons were actually beneath the golden egg noodles. The 4 wontons were bouncy, fresh and well portioned and seasoned. The skin is thin and slippery. The broth is deliciously rich and I didn't feel too thirsty afterwards because God forbid I should visit the tiny lavatory 50 times during a gruesome 12 hr flight back home. And as for Dave who ordered Cafe de Coral 大家樂 stared enviously at my bowl. I don't blame him because who told him to order an egg and ham sammy with a bowl of water downed oatmeal? read more

A solid place for some congee, noodles and soup. Their food does not wreak of MSG either. Everything is always tasty - nothing is too salty, bland or soggy when they shouldn't be, and I love their flavorful congee - have to have it every time I am in HK. Service is pretty decent, too. There is one older, tall server who has been there for awhile, and he has always been kind and courteous. read more

My go-to for congee and dim sum. The congee here is pretty good - it's the thick creamy HK-style. My favorite is the Fish congee - a decent portion of white sliced fish in congee - a comforting dish. The side dough fritter is also very good - crispy and fried to perfection. Dim sum is ok / standard good. read more

Surprisingly good selection of food in the mall above the Central MTR and airport express MTG. very large menu, fairly elegant setting. Congee was very good. Noodles (dry) w brisket was good, broth served on the side was ok. Lots of dim sum on the menu but didn't try it. Open late. read more

Thought I would give this a go as the reviews are generally favourable. My lasting opinion of this place is that it is a upmarket classy noodle and congee joint. Both the noodles and congee were good but no better than small outlets on the streets but you're paying the equivalent of 4 times the price. For that you do get a clean restaurant, uniformed waiter service and a good ambience but quite frankly there's no real need if you're eating noodles or congee for this kind of establishment. read more

Good dim sum and wonton mein at what seems to be reasonable prices. We got the wonton noodle soup, beef chow fun, and egg custard tart for a little under $30. The food really grew on us with every bite. Note that you will have to share tables at busy times, but it's no big deal IMO. read more

After looking around for somewhere to eat, found this place and it wasn't terribly busy, had to wait maybe 15 min for a table. Wide selection of food options.

They portions are small, but price is good. read more

I was lucky enough to grab a table before the lunch time madness began, and boy was I happy to have read Yelp reviews ahead of time! We got there around 11:30 and by the time it was 12:15 there were lines out the door. Upon entering, you are greeted with beautiful chandelier lights, servers bustling around, and chefs cooking up a storm on the side. I believe this was on the 2nd floor of the mall. I opted to order their special congee and it was one of the tastiest congees I've ever had, filled with a mixture of meats. We split their flaky char siu pork bun and my sister got their noodles. No complaints there. Next time I'm back in Hong Kong I will definitely return here. read more

Went to there with friends - not too familiar with restaurants at Central, so not too many options. Wonton noodles tasted fine, but price almost doubled from that of Man Wen Kee. Chicken and pork were also fine. But frog congee was plain. There were always pressures eating there - waiters took away dishes immediately after they were finished - a gesture of "finish your meal and go!" Understood there was need of higher customer turns to deal with the rental at IFC. But still felt a bit uncomfortable... read more

I have ordered several items of foods. The wonton Noodle is the best. I will go again only for it. The rice rolls with donut inside is terrible, I return it, the beef stews are over cooked, it totally different from their pictures, just like pick up left over from the soup. Fish congee is ok. There's a lot of servers standing free talking to each other, or working on the cellphone. They don't care about you, every time we need to call them for more tea after our glass are empty. I can say it's not a pleasant meal and visit. read more

The staff were helpful and spoke English quite well. The house special wonton soup is great! I also loved the prompt tea refills

Over priced and the food wasn't that great. Wish we went to a restaurant outside the mall instead.

4.5 super popular for lunch. nothing special or fancy, but a perfect casual fare place and easy to grab a bite if you're alone and off to the airport soon too. the small version outposts at the airport are not as good so best to eat at IFC first read more

We had a most excellent lunch on the Friday before Christmas. The century egg and salty lean pork congee was very good. The wonton noodles were very respectable. Dry beef noodles were very good. Side order of beef brisket was excellent (very tender and flavorful). The fried dough wrapped in rice noodle was very good. Egg yolk custard steamed bun was good (not the best). Service was good with some English spoken. Restaurant is bright and clean. I highly recommend this restaurant. read more
