Oh dear - it does pain me hugely to write a negative review. After reading the great reviews of this restaurant and finding that it was a 2 minute walk from our hotel, we were very much looking forward to taste the Peking Duck. Most of the reviews about the duck on tripadvisor were amazing so we were very excited.... More

This place is worth the StarFerry/cabride/train ride into Kowloon. One doesn't come here for decor, finesse or ambiance. One comes here for hearty, savory goodness. We had the shrimp balls and peking duck of course (some of the house specialties) which were outstanding (the duck packs lots of juice / grease btw compared to more fru-fru versions in 'luxury' restaurants...think...

If you truly want to experience, like a local, the best northern Chinese food in an authentic Chinese restaurant that is bustling and hustling every night, this is the place for you. See and feel the energy of what a great and busy local Chinese restaurant is really like. If you are looking for a "Four Seasons' setting and service,... More

This Peking duck is worth a trip to Kowloon. The price you pay here for the quality that this restaurant provides is amazing. They open at 6PM for dinner, so I just popped in half an hour before and made a reservation at this busy local restaurant. The closer you come to opening the easier you will get a seat.... More

We had this restaurant recommended to us for great Peking duck and we weren't dissapointed. I had also read that bookings are essential, but, not being that organised we decided to take our chances and just turn up, which we did at nearly 6pm on a Tuesday night and happily we were shown to a table. Although evey table we... More

Like a lot of restaurants in HK this is a gem that's hidden upstairs. A relatively small entrance turns into a very large dining room that was packed when we ate there (booking is a very good idea). The service was quick and friendly and the food excellent - great duck and great shredded beef in pockets. Enjoy, the whole... More

Had a chance to have dinner here last February. I must admit that I was in shock when I first entered the building. It has a small door and stairway leading to the second floor. Upon arrival at the restaurant, the tables are all occupied, and it was so crowded, and noisy. We had reserved a table on a corner... More

We had read a lot about the Peking Duck at this restaurant and we were not disappointed. We booked through our hotel and after being seated the waiter straight away pointed at the Peking duck and gave it the "thumbs up'. The chef brought out the full bird and carved it at the table and we enjoyed the whole experience... More

Having just come through Beijing and been foiled in our attempt to consume some Peking Duck in Peking/Beijing, Hong Kong was our last opportunity before returning home to Oz. After much research, we decided to commit ourselves to Spring Deer. It's a little hard to find - there's a big sign visible form the street and you have to walk... More

This is real TST, Hong Kong. Meaning, the allure of a hidden upstairs, strange entrance, super loud room, brusque waiters and an uber plain interior make it all the better. The point here is that the food is the all around amazing star. Make a reservation far, far in advance. This place is super popular with locals as well as... More
