    $$$$ | Central

    Art and food come together in this beautiful two-story establishment, which encompasses a bar, garden terrace, and dining room. The interiors are sophisticated yet inviting, making the perfect backdrop for the year-round art exhibitions hosted at the restaurant. But Duddell’s isn’t just a feast for the eyes—the Cantonese cuisine here is solid and satisfying and has garnered plenty of praise from locals and visitors alike. Signature items include crispy salted chicken and fried lobster with scallions and shallots. The dim sum lunch here is also quite popular and includes creative dishes like egg-white dumplings with shrimp and caviar.

  • 22. Dynasty Restaurant

    $$$$ | Wan Chai

    Dining on haute Cantonese cuisine at this stunning restaurant with panoramic views over Victoria Harbour is a memorable experience. The chefs here are famed for adapting family-style recipes into elegant dishes, and the service is impeccable yet friendly. The menu changes with the seasons and leans heavily toward fresh seafood, though the barbecued pork is also a must-try. With its high ceilings, old-world charm, and laid-back tempo, Dynasty is one of the rare top-notch restaurants where you can comfortably linger over a meal.

  • 23. Fei Jie Snacks Stall

    $ | Mong Kok

  • 24. Hing Kee Restaurant

    $ | Yau Ma Tei

    Located on a boisterous stretch of Temple Street, this crowded, open-air eatery is the perfect spot to soak in the local atmosphere. The food isn’t amazing, but it’s cheap and offers a wide range of choices. Stick to the wok-tossed stir-fries laced with pungent black-bean sauce or spicy chili salt. Hing Kee is also known for its clay-pot dishes, which are especially comforting during the colder winter months.

  • 25. Ho Ho Shanghai Restaurant

    $ | Jordan

    Just beyond the northern boundary of Tsim Sha Tsui, on a side street off Nathan Road near the Jordan MTR station, this humble place is popular among locals seeking a quick bowl of noodles or a simple, tasty Shanghainese dish. Try a dish of Shanghainese rice with vegetables, topped with your choice of meat, or the fried noodles, soup noodles, and sweet spareribs.

  • 26. Ho Lee Fook

    $$ | Central

    Opened by award-winning Sydney-based chef Jowett Yu, this funky eatery is nothing like your average Chinese restaurant. As the tongue-in-cheek name suggests, the food here is bold and playful, inspired by old-school Chinatown classics but with a decidedly modern twist. Standout creations include the Yunnan-style steak tartare with hot-and-sour sauce, as well as the roast wagyu short ribs with a jalapeño puree. The cocktail list is just as inspired—try the Cooler, which is made with vodka infused with oolong tea.

  • 27. Hoi King Heen

    $$ | Tsim Sha Tsui

    If you’re looking for stellar Cantonese cuisine, this is the place for you. The chefs serve a range of modern classics made from the freshest ingredients and influenced by their reverence for natural flavors. There are excellent—and expensive—dishes on the menu like double-boiled bird’s nest and braised abalone, but the humbler dishes like smoked vegetarian goose and braised beef brisket with pear really steal the show. Hoi King Heen is a great dinner destination, and the lunchtime dim sum menu is also worth checking out.

    70 Mody Rd., Kowloon, n/a Hong Kong, Hong Kong
    2731–2883
  • 28. Honeymoon Dessert

    $

    Though it’s expanded across Asia, Honeymoon Dessert’s first-ever store in Sai Kung still draws droves of loyal and new fans alike. The store sells homemade traditional Chinese desserts such as black-sesame sweet soup and the refreshing mango-pomelo sweet soup. It also does newfangled items, including durian pancakes and glutinous rice dumplings dusted with desiccated coconut and filled with fresh mango. In the summer, don’t miss out on the wide selection of cooling grass jelly creations.

  • 29. Hotpot Instinct

    $$ | Causeway Bay

    Hotpot cooking is immensely popular in Hong Kong, and places like Hotpot Instinct are packed even during the steamy summer months. The large menu offers thinly sliced beef, pork, seafood, and a range of house-made fish balls and meatballs, which diners then dip into a boiling vat of broth at their table.

    459-461 Lockhart Rd., Hong Kong, n/a Hong Kong, Hong Kong
    2573–2844
  • 30. Islam Food

    $

    This might not be the prettiest restaurant you’ve ever seen, but its panfried beef patties (translated as “veal goulash” on the menu) are incredibly delicious. The browned pastry packets arrive at the table piping hot and bursting with tender minced beef—good luck stopping after just one.

  • 31. Ko Lau Wan Hotpot and Seafood Restaurant

    $$ | Tsim Sha Tsui

    Anyone seeking an authentic hot-pot experience need look no farther than Ko Lau Wan. Locals flock here for the tender beef and seafood that you cook at your table in a piping-hot pot of broth. The soup selection is quite extensive, but the satay broth and the fish stock with crab are particularly tasty. The owner comes from a fishing village in the New Territories, so there’s no wonder the cuttlefish, shrimp balls, sea urchin, amberjack, and abalone are all so tantalizingly fresh. The adventurous should try the geoduck, a giant clam popular among Hong Kongers, which can be eaten raw with soy sauce and wasabi or slightly cooked in soup.

  • 32. Leaf Dessert

    $ | Central

    Visit this outdoor stall for authentic Chinese desserts. Sweet soups made with red bean or ground black sesame are served in both hot and chilled versions. Warmed, chewy, glutinous rice balls heaped with sugar, crushed peanuts, and desiccated coconut are messy but delicious.

  • 33. Lee Keung Kee

    Bubble-shaped egg waffles are a local specialty in Hong Kong, and Lee Keung Kee offers a delicious version. The waffles here are crisp on the outside but soft and cottony on the inside.

  • 34. Mak's Noodles

    $ | Central

    Mak’s may look like any other Hong Kong noodle shop, but this tiny storefront is one of the best known in town, with a reputation that belies its humble decor. The real test of a good Cantonese noodle shop, however, is its wontons, and here they’re fresh, delicate, and filled with whole shrimp.

    77 Wellington St., Hong Kong, n/a Hong Kong, Hong Kong
    2854–3810

    Known For

    • Truly famous wonton noodles

  • 35. Mian

    $ | Quarry Bay

    Come to Mian for the Chinese pappardelle—flat egg noodles that are great for holding thick, flavorful sauces. Enjoy these noodles tossed in sweet soy sauce and topped with plum-flavored spareribs and preserved vegetables. The restaurant also serves Taiwanese-style “QQ” noodles, which are made from potato starch and have a springy, al dente bite. If you’re up for it, order a side of crunchy pig’s ears to go with your bowl of noodles.

  • 36. Mido Café

    $ | Yau Ma Tei

    This old-school cha chaan teng (local café) has plenty of charm, since the decor hasn’t changed much since the ’60s. Although prices have gone up somewhat over time, the food still draws plenty of loyal fans. Try the famous baked-pork-chop rice or enjoy a slice of crispy French toast with a cup of milk tea.

  • 37. Mott 32

    $$$ | Central

    Named after a convenience store that was once at the heart of New York’s Chinatown district, Mott 32 embraces the East-meets-West identity that pervaded early immigrant communities. This is duly reflected in the interior design, which marries Imperial Chinese furnishings with grungy industrial elements. The menu offers classic Cantonese, Beijing, and Sichuan recipes prepared with modern inflections. Expect only the finest ingredients in dishes from barbecued Iberico pork cha siu to crab and caviar xiao long bao dumplings. Be sure to try one of the Asian-inspired cocktails, such as the whisky-based Old Harbor flavored with goji berries and chrysanthemum.

    4–4A Des Voeux Rd., Hong Kong, n/a Hong Kong, Hong Kong
    2885–8688
  • 38. One Harbour Road

    $$$$ | Wan Chai

    It’s hard to say what’s more impressive at the Grand Hyatt’s Cantonese showpiece—the interior design (two terraced levels boasting an incredible sense of space and motion), or the view over the harbor from the floor-to-ceiling windows. Unlike many harborside establishments, though, you don’t need a window seat to catch the view. And the cuisine is traditional but excellent—order one of the signature barbecued meats and don’t be afraid to splurge on seafood. The restaurant offers a wine-pairing menu and there’s also a knowledgeable sommelier on hand to provide pairing suggestions for specific dishes.

  • 39. San Xi Lou

    $$ | Central

    This Mid-Levels eatery is known for the high quality of its spicy Sichuan cuisine. The famous Chongqing spicy chicken is heaped with dried red chili peppers for a sensational tingling, mouth-numbing effect. Another unique creation is the homemade silken tofu, which is bathed in a bright-red spicy broth speckled with chunks of whitefish, chopped scallions, and crunchy roasted peanuts. Those in town during the cold winter months should go for the yinyang hot pot—the fiery-hot side dish is perfect for dunking with thin slices of fat-marbled beef and the local favorite, deep-fried fish skin.

  • 40. Sha Tin 18

    $$$

    If you’re exploring the Sha Tin neighborhood, consider visiting Sha Tin 18 for a pan-Chinese feast. The restaurant is equipped with several open kitchens, each with its own culinary specialty. Northern Chinese dishes are best, and you’ll find a range of homespun noodles and dumplings, but the traditional Peking duck, which is roasted in-house and served as three separate courses, is also excellent. If you’re dropping by for lunch, the extensive dim sum menu should keep you well sated. Save room for dessert, though, because the selection—which includes candied pomelo crème brûlée and pink peppercorn ice cream—is definitely more innovative than your average Chinese eatery.

    18 Chak Cheung St., New Territories, n/a Hong Kong, Hong Kong
    3723–1234
