In homage to the iconic Relais de Venise restaurant in Paris, this intimate neighborhood brasserie offers only one entrée: steak frites. A typical dinner here includes a green salad, a perfectly grilled entrecôte steak, and unlimited refills of crispy, stick-thin fries. It’s probably one of the best deals in town. But if that’s not enough food for you, you can always pick up something from the dessert trolley, which features traditional confections such as éclairs and mille-feuilles.
This two-level restaurant and bar serves modern American food with fine-dining execution and finesse. The menu offers small sharing plates and includes refined yet hearty creations such as crabmeat and chorizo mac and cheese, or buttermilk-fried cornish hen served with organic honey. The team behind Liberty Exchange also runs a reservations-only kitchen near Lan Kwai Fong called Liberty Private Works, which offers a more personal (and more expensive) experience.
Enjoy American comfort fare at this Prohibition Era–style restaurant and bar. The upper level—Lily—serves assorted late-night bar bites and classic cocktails made with premium spirits. For a more formal dining experience, head downstairs to Bloom and enjoy catchy Cotton Club tunes and hearty dishes such as Iberico pork chop and hickory-smoked skirt steak. The kitchen at Lily & Bloom stays open until late at night, making this a popular snacking pit stop for Central’s party crowd.
Hidden inside the famous Stanley Market, this warm, intimate eatery is rarely discovered by tourists. You may feel like you’ve walked into someone’s house when you enter the dining room, but Lucy’s is a professionally run restaurant offering excellent home-cooked dishes made from the freshest ingredients. The menu has a Mediterranean slant and often features light salads and grilled meats or fish. Desserts, especially the pecan pudding, are not to be missed. More upscale than most of the beachside restaurants in Stanley, and with lots more character, Lucy’s is a perfect end to a relaxed day browsing in the market, and easily your best bet in Stanley.
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.
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.
Inside a luxury residential complex, Spices is a staunch favorite among well-heeled locals in search of relaxed dining. The menu has favorites from throughout Asia, and service is friendly and professional. The prawn-and-green-mango salad and the deep-fried prawn cakes are excellent. Other choices include curries, satays, and stir-fried noodles, but everything here is a good. The indoor dining room, with high ceilings and wooden tables and floors, can get noisy. If the weather permits, reserve a table in the colonial courtyard for the full tropical experience.
Tucked away on a quiet street across from the famed Blue House, Stone Nullah Tavern serves new American cuisine that revolves around locally sourced ingredients. The menu changes regularly, but you’ll always find unabashedly hearty offerings such as cheddar mac and cheese and the notorious "fat kid cake" (essentially four desserts mixed into one). Adventurous diners will enjoy the wide selection of offal-centric dishes, including crispy pig’s head, tripe “fries,” and chicken liver dip served with homemade potato chips.
This place started out as a one-table private kitchen in a quiet Wan Chai neighborhood. Due to popular demand, chef-owner Esther Sham moved to a much larger location. Decked out like a chic Parisian apartment, the newer space accommodates 48 guests. There are seven different menus from which to choose, ranging from the Japanese-inspired meal to the Shanghai-style dinner. The latter includes the famous not-so-Shanghainese foie gras dumplings. Wine connoisseurs can also take advantage of the extensive selection at Hip Cellar next door.
Lobsters, clams, abalone, crabs, prawns, fish, and everything else from the deep blue sea is here for the tasting on Sai Kung’s picturesque harbor. Crustaceans and fish are quickly cooked by steaming and wok frying, but are first presented whole, leaving no doubt as to the freshness of your food. A quick look inside the tank is like a lesson in marine biology. Pick your favorites, and leave the rest to the chef.
A laid-back beachfront dining terrace and an extensive international menu make this one of the best outdoor restaurants in Hong Kong. Perched on the Discovery Bay promenade a 25-minute ferry ride from Central, the sea and beach views alone are easily worth the trip. Signature dishes include deep-fried calamari and grilled baby back ribs. Pizzas and pastas also share the spotlight with Asian and Mexican favorites. Come early to enjoy the great beach, and stay to catch a free view of nearby Disneyland’s nightly fireworks display. If you spend more than HK$100, you get a free ferry ticket back to Central.
