FAST and cheap ! great for dinner or late night gatherings for some food and beer. What makes this place different from most restaurants is their kitchen is OUTSIDE. When you are near by, you WILL hear the ROARING flame of the fire from the individual wok areas they have. My family in HK had brought us here for dinner during our visit in April 2016. We had just came here just early enough before the rush. We got a table almost instantly. Yes this place still has lots of outdoor seating but what surprised me is how brightly lit and clean the interior areas were as well. Whats funny is ive ate next door before this place existed 10 years ago. XD Same concept place. You can go around and view the chef's working their magic with the wok on the volcano of a stove. Some will even particularly give you some extra "show". It makes them happy some people are still interested. We had ordered a few things. honey sauce/glazed pork chops, deep fried pig intestine, stuffed fried tofu and eggplants, steamed garlic shrimp, deep fried milk fish, malaysia style on choy, and salted egg & garlic yin choy. To my surprise though not too surprised... my favs were (in no particular order) the deep fried milk fish, deep fried pig intestine, and steamed garlic shrimp. Pork chops. Nothing too special. sweet savoryish sour sauce with pork chop. Deep fried pork intestine - not special but something i havent had in a long time so it was nice and tasty XD Fried stuffed eggplant and tofu - nothing too special, similar to what i make at home too. Salted egg with garlic yin choy - not so common vegetable in the state but still available. this particular one had red leaves too. ive only seen the green leaved version. Simple dish in a broth. Nice and light Malaysia style on-choy - to be honest, not sure what the sauce is. But ive noticed the malaysia style tends to have dried baby shrimp and chili. Lol Steamed garlic shrimp - simple. TONS of garlic. though i expected the shrimp to be bigger in comparison to the picture that was on the wall. but omg so tasty. THAT GARLIC *drools* om nom nom hahaha Deep fried milk fish - recommendation from my uncle. Ive never had it. Boneless (but as with all fish, id still be careful anyway). Lightly battered. Deep fried. The fish was light. Batter was crispy but light. It was really done well. Definitely a recommendation from me to others. Overall. Great place to eat at. As said, one of the last few left. If you are one who has been raised in the states, you may not like the chairs being plastic stools and you need to clean your own utensils and stuff. This particular location is a lot cleaner than i remember these places to be so im quite surprised. Especially the area it is in. Their order to table times are ridiculous. We had our entire order even faster than sometimes even one dish coming out in the states. Benefits of this style of cooking. SUPER fast. I've been told this place ONLY opens at night but i swear i heard the flame roaring mid-day another day when we were walking around near-by.

Just no. Don't come here. The dim sum took over 30 minutes to arrive - and only when we had to ask…read moretwice - and when the food came, it was cold. Dim sum is meant to be piping hot, not stone cold. The food itself also tasted terrible. Chicken buns were full of fat and chewy tendons, dumplings were greasy. On top of that, service was non existent. The food may have been good eons ago, but come now at your own risk. Avoid this place.

Providing the best dim sum dining experience I've had in Hong Kong, this restaurant is as close to…read moreperfect as I have found for a traditional Chinese lunch. It simply succeeds in all categories from good service, excellent surroundings, a professional ethos throughout to tasty and well prepared food. The porcelain teapots carrying hot water are coloured differently from the porcelain teapots carrying Chinese tea which is a pleasant practical touch. The highlights of the food has to be their dessert including the Malaysian cake which is spongy and fragrant (but not too sweet), the custard dumpling which wraps warm custard in a translucent layer for a beautiful finish, the lightly fried mantou was suitably tasty and soft and the coconut red bean pudding is a melt-in-the-mouth, silky smooth and all-round delicious pudding - the best I have had of its kind for sure. The steamed taro cake however was admittedly overcooked and dry. The stir-fried singapore-style vegetable and beef noodles were excellently flavoured with the delicate combination of sweet chilli and pepper emmersed in the crunchy texture of vegetables alongside the soft noodles. The fact that when ordering roast duck soup noodles the meat is served on a separate plate from the bowl of noodles is a wise decision as this enables the meat to be provided with maximum taste and accompanying sauce without drowning it in soup. The attention to detail extends to differently shaped plates for the different types of dishes being served. The only little improvements I would make to this restaurant would be to install an escalator as currently a flight of stairs must be climbed in order to enter the dining area which may be troublesome for elderly folk and I would alter the eating bowls being used as they are a little too shallow, reducing your desired ability to gather more of the delicious food and soup into the bowl for your consumption. As a whole, 喜尚嘉喜 provides as good as it gets for having dim sum in Hong Kong; understated from the outside, but simply excelling in delivery of all traditional Chinese standards from the beginning to the end of the dining experience.

If you go during the weekdays it's better because you can almost secure a table and enjoy the good local food. Wanton noodles, especially good ones, are not easy to find these days. My family has been there many times and this little noodle place never disappoints us. I recommend this place to the locals, and those who're touring Hong Kong but wanna get a taste of real Hong Kong food. It brings me back to the 80s of Hong Kong when I was a kid, and could enjoy this kind of cheap local food around the corner. Awesome noodles and lots of healthy dishes to choose from.

We came on a weekday and got outside seating, very rare for a popular restaurant, but it is a weekday. The setup is similar to Chipotle, you choose a base, which is your choice of noodles, plus your choice of ingredients: fish balls, bean curd, vegetables, etc. They charge for each topping. There is also a combo one which has select ingredients for one price. Food and soup base was very good, This is a vegetarian and pescatarian friendly restaurant.

It's basically create your own noodle- they already have a soup base. Choose the type of noodles, three or more toppings and off you go! You order from the lady and you take your ticket and sit down. It's proper Chinese. I went for stuffed aubergines, stuffed tofu and radish but I wanted more until my aunt stopped me because CLEARLY my eyes are bigger than my stomach. Each bowl of noodles is like 48HKD, which is leaning on the expensive side, especially for such unpretentious food. But it's right by sai Kung harbour which has turned bustling with people, and it's not a sleepy fisherman's town like before. (But you can still buy fish from a boat- freshly caught so no worries!) Only gripe is the drinks took ages and they made it wrong and then got huffy. But that's proper Chinese innit.

We were meeting distant family for a big family lunch who live in this area. We had a private room…read morefor the ten of us for dim sum lunch. We then left, walked around and visited in someone's home for a bit and then returned to this same restaurant for dinner. Both lunch and dinner menus were in Chinese, but there were pictures. So if you do not speak the language, you could probably point and pick your way through a meal at this restaurant. 3.5 STARS FOR LUNCH: There was nothing special at our dim sum lunch as it pertains to "dim sum Chinese lunch." But with that said, it was good quality and in line with standard, good, dim sum lunch you can find really anywhere around Kowloon and Hong Kong. It was also packed at lunchtime. This restaurant is huge and accomodates the masses. 5 STARS FOR DINNER: Again, it was ten of us for dinner and a big family meal together. Many great dishes, but the fish and the goose in particular were exceptionally fresh and well prepared. The fish was a halibit of sorts from their tank that they bring over in the bucket to show you before they prepare him. Really extraordinarily tasty! Notably a high point of our meal. And again, packed with people! By the time we left, this restaurant was bulging at the seams with patrons. As for decor and design of the restaurant itself, nothing exceptional. Because of the high volume, soft goods of carpet, chairs, walls are kind of warn. It was not dirty or anything, just average in this department at best. Staff was quick, friendly, accomodating. I am not sure, but I did not see an extensive amount of restaurant options in this immediate area as we walked the few blocks from the MTR. As such, maybe this is why this place is busy. There is no competition close by. Regardless, they are a good quality restaurant we would return to if we were in the area again.

This restaurant is not a chain as such but it was start by two brothers who still staff the place, much like the newer generation of hotpot places they serve not only the usual hotpot favourites but also specialize in seafood items and even serve sashimi if you come here on the right day. Dotted around the shop are blackboard with the special of the day being listed and you are strongly recommended to try whats on the boards as they will be the fresh items for the day. They have a huge choice of soup bases to choose from and one of the most important things in a hot pot- beef- is categorized into so many sections that you wouldn't have known that so many bits can come off a cow. The other items on the menu do go on and portions could only be described to be generous. Another favourite to try here is the special wanton that they make on site. The shop further benefits from the fact that it occupies a corner section so it is a good size with around 12-15 tables; they always have the A/Cs on full blast to keep everyone cool .Drinks aren't the cheapest but there is always some beer thats on special offer to keep every well hydrated. For drivers, you could park right outside but then again the fuzz does visit every now and then hence you will be well advised to check on your pride and joy every now and then.
