Morty's was rated as one of the best sandwich restaurants in HK, we were certainly excited to try it and didn't mind the price. The sandwiches are priced comparable to many delis in the States. The quality though, is subpar and not very authentic. We were quite disappointed. Pastrami in the Reuben was chewy and fries tasted like home made air fryer fries. French dip - a bit better than the Reuben, but still tasted like frozen ones from Costco. French dip was NOT served with Au Jus as stated on the menu, but gravy! Two stars for the attentive service. Sorry I really wanted to love it.

Found this place onYelp, walked from my hotel, and was warmly greeted by host, who immediately took my takeaway order. I ordered the BLT w/ Avocado, and a side of Potato Salad.

I've grown up largely on western cuisine, so anytime I had an opportunity to eat it while living /…read morestaying for long periods of time in Asia, it's always a welcome sight. The deli scene in Hong Kong is next to zero, but Morty's is here to fill that void. This Wan Chai location is not really near the MTR. They're sandwiched in between Admiralty and Wan Chai but is most easily accessible from Hennessy Rd and up a couple of blocks onto Wing Fung St. The restaurant looks like a small diner on the beginning of an street incline. Parking is a near impossibility. It's a narrow, tight squeeze but they've still made room for all sorts of group action, including an outdoor table in their courtyard. Ventilation is quite good and there are TVs for watching sports on the inside. It's generally well lit and clean, which is sometimes all we can ask for. The food is not going to win awards from smoked meat purists, but it'll do the job. They offer a classic pastrami as well as a reuben and some interesting smoked meat burgers and a short rib sandwich that is supposedly cooked for 72 hours via sous vide. They also have a rare item in poutine (#1), which is true to form with cheese curds, a little pastrami, and topped off with homemade gravy. They also have hot dogs, specialty sandwiches (#3), salads, and they even a have plant based options. The latter includes a cubano, burgers, and a mushroom version of their popular reuben. I also appreciate that they care about their bread so much that they actually have ciabatta, baguette, rye, or even a bagel. I think I'm most impressed with their drink selection, which includes cocktails, wine, beer, and soda options. The bottomless iced lemon tee makes me chuckle, but I'm likely to shoot for their rootbeer float ($75HKD), which is totally alcoholic. Overall, I'm not mad at the food. It's smaller than I expected (#2). I find that $160-170HKD is a little pricey for their signature sandwiches, but I get that they're also gauging prices the way they are in North America. Would likely come back when I feel like bleeding money and eating smoked meats. __________ (#1) Trust me. It's rare. We barely have it in Houston, TX where I'm based! (#2) Foodflation around the world, food shrinkage in Asia. Portions R not us.

We went for a drive to Tai Po looking for a new place to try. This place is across from the water…read moresports centre along a small road with various restaurants. We stopped in front and a waitress passed us the menu. Looked good so she moved some cones and voila, a car park space! The menu is a mix of Indian, Italian and western fare (steaks and ribs). I am a bit concerned about fusion cuisine as my past experience is nothing is done well. We split a green papaya salad (great and a meal in itself) and both had pasta dishes. Mine was linguine with marinara sauce and my wife's was homemade mushroom ravioli. Both entrees were good. We finished off the meal with homemade ricotta cheesecake: light and delicious. Great food and great service. The waiter told us the boss is the chef and worked in the industry for 17 years before opening this place. We are keen to go back to try the Indian dishes ( other customers had Indian and it looked good) and their ribs. This place will definitely be one of our regular spots.

As good as fish and chips get in HK…read more We had the signature fish and chips, the fish bite and chips and the truffle oil chips with honey dip. The customers were a demanding bunch of expat brats and their gweilo parents. All the dishes were served fresh and hot. The fish bites were the biggest surprise: light and crispy batter with real fish pieces. Highly recommended. We went for a Gweilo IPA (how ironic). The staff were very thoughtful, offering to serve the freshly cracked beer when the fish arrived - or immediately after ordering, if preferred. Consumed this feast on the steps between piers 6 and 7 facing Kowloon. Doesn't get much simpler - or better.

Fish was very good, they actually use a whole fish, the inside was tender and flaky while the outside did not have too much deep fried batter like at some places.

I came here for lunch after a bout of uncertainty of where to eat. Overall, I'd say this place is…read moreokay. I won't say the service is amazing, but they'll get to helping you within a few minutes. This place does feature a mildly trendy North American décor, though yes let down by the use of window paint to highlight what the restaurant serves in addition to the boxes of things that someone decided to just plop in the dining area. When it comes to food, this place does a good job, I ordered the set lunch which included a cream of chicken soup and beverage with my sole risotto. The soup was tasty, but they had tiny stringy shards of chicken that messed with the texture a little. On the bright side, there are no lumps. The sole risotto was also very good. The sole was perfectly cooked- flaky and flavourful with a very light crust, and the rice could only be described as al dente. The crouton was a very strange choice, but I'll let it slide. I topped off my meal with a coffee. To be brutally honest, it's definitely best served cold. I ordered a hot coffee and their supplier could have done a better job of roasting the beans- the coffee tasted burnt. Overall, I think this place is worth a visit. It offers decent food at a reasonable price... just avoid ordering a hot coffee.

Best Steak House in Yuen Long…read more I have been coming to this place for 6 years. The owner Randy is one of the friendliest owners in Hong Kong. He spent some time in New York, that's why he named this restaurant New York Cafe. They just recently expanded into 2 units and added Seaport Bar n Grill. This place is not like any steak house in New Territories. It's own by a humble man who cares about his customers and gives you the food quality without charging you a fortune. That's really rare in Hong Kong. Furthermore, you really don't get a lot of good western food in New Territories, even harder in Yuen Long. Both steak and seafood here are imported. Amazing Australian Prime Rib, Boston Lobster, and huge Mussels. For dinner sets, 8 oz Beef Tenderloin, Cajun Chicken Pizza, Fish & Chips are just mouth watering good. You just can't get this kind of food quality from local chain like King of Steaks. They also have a great wine selection. The owner Randy is a big wine drinker and cigar smoker. You would see him hanging out with a few friends smoking cigar here around 9pm every night. The wine priced fairly and I am sure the owner hand picked them individually. This is a 5 star restaurant for the quality of food, service, and particular for this location (Yuen Long). You can of course find better steak and seafood restaurant in TST and Central that charge you $1000+ a person. For $150-300 a person, the food and service is way beyond its value. I have recommended all of my friends and family to come eat here. Everyone has only praises about his place. I will add more photos later.

Staff wanted to seat us in the open air part, close to the very front of the restaurant. Since it was hot, we asked for, and were accommodated at a table in the middle of the restaurant, under the needed air conditioning!! We started off with two tapas; the Padron Peppers, $87, and the White Anchovies, $74. While the pepper dish was ample in size, it was incredibly boring in taste. However, the large sardines were expertly seasoned and enjoyable. For our main, we shared a non-meat version of the Seafood Paella, $338. This was delicioso y mui excellante! For dessert, we shared a Date Pudding, $70. This too was excellent. See photos. All in all a very comfortable place to dine. Service was adequate, as the staff had an attitude, yet food was impressive, thus the rating of 4 stars.

Need an all-day dining option? This is a good spot!…read more They have good happy hour deals on weekdays starting at 3 pm. Select cocktails and beer can go as low as $35HKD! They also have a good wine list that's affordable by the glass. We were a bit peckish one Sunday afternoon so we stopped by and ordered their tasting platter, which had 30 g each of serrano, lomo, chorizo, and salchichon iberico. It was served with some hearty bread slices and gherkins. I wish they could add some cheeses, but after all they are named "Iberico" so I guess I'll let it slide, haha. As it's along the escalators, it's a nice spot to chill over drinks and small plates while you people watch. If you're lucky, you might even witness some tourists who trip and fall at the end of the escalator because they were clearly not paying attention while taking selfies! (Yes, I've seen this happen before and it is schadenfreude at it's finest!)

Aside from the Ngau Lam Wich, try the Char Siu Pork Neck sandwiches- they're delicious!
