Had a sumptuous dim sum breakfast. Food's good - har kau, fried seaweed bean curd prawn roll, liu shar pau, fried carrot cake are ok. Service is fine too

Great food. Coming from Singapore, seafood definitely value for money, despite the causeway jams. Service a little wanting though, as the waitress tried to hurry us to finish our lunch by 3.30pm.

The New Hong Kong Restaurant is an outstanding landmark along Jln Ibrahim Sultan. They serve Hong Kong delicacies such as their signature BBQ pork belly, char siew, and a variety of dim sum. It has been in business since 1954 and we used to patronize it when our parents and relatives were still around on both sides of the Straits. After many years of absence, we decided to pay it a visit. We ordered har kau, siew mai, bbq pork belly and siew york, char siew bun, and fried carrot cake with otah. We enjoyed every dish as well as their appetizer which is guava with orange skin. The interior of the restaurant is elegant and cosy, and there is a huge car park behind.

A fallen star. Was a wonderful restaurant which we used to frequent many years ago. Had the worst experience when we visited recently. The waiters were extremely rude. The dim sum was undercooked. When we asked for the manager or person in charged, the lady at the cashier just said there's no manager or owner here. An absolute disgrace for a establishment opening its doors for business. Please visit if you want to have the utter worst possible start to your day.

After wandering around Johor Bahru City Square for quite awhile looking for the best eats, we stumbled across New Hong Kong Restaurant. The Australian Beef Stir-fry was a dynamite choice and the service was excellent. This was a day trip to Malaysia from Singapore, credit cards accepted.

Totally overpriced. Was given wet towels (not those disposable) at first and thought was quite a good service only to realize that we were charged 1.80 each for that before service charge and gst. Porridge was bland. Curry fish head was lousy. Roasted chicken took so long till we finished all our food. First and last. Rm330 for 5 pax not even filling.

Visited on Saturday lunch, after decide to make our food order, one of the signature dishes unavailable. We decide to leave the place however our drink already arrived. Service should be more attentive and inform the guest when item was not available. Bought our own tea which RM8.50 being charged on the bill. Food quality below expectation. Average quality.

V v poor service yet charge 10% service charge. Table of 9 lunch and we had to justify ourselves to request for small bowls, which is standard utensil in all Chinese restaurants. Only after we explained that we have ordered the very premium dishes ie suckling pig rm168 and Peking duck rm60 did they give us a stack of bowls which we distribute ourselves. We had to go and refill teapot with hot water ourselves throughout. Very rude too. Tea was expensive too. Rm4++/pax. They charged extra 20.8 to chop up the Peking duck too. Ive never heard of that.. couldnt believe my ears. Chinese restaurants always chop up the duck free. The premium is only when they stir fry with noodles. And this wasn't stated in menu. There's no dim sum menu too. They just come to your table and give you what dim sum is available, and you have no idea about the price. Prawn cheong fun was bad. Prawn fried beancurd roll was stuffed with lots of corn/veg too. Other dishes were ok. Rm500 for 9pax.

Authentic Hong Kong Tim Sum. Nice. Place was crowded but managed to get a table. Food was great. Service a bit slow as too many diners.

Reading some of the reviews here makes me even question if I ate at the same restaurant as them LOL. Ate sum sum here with my family for brunch over the weekend. The food was passable. Dim sum is my dad's favorite food, so he has high standards and we were sorely disappointed after reading reviews here from another site. The dim sum skins were all hard and dry. They don't seem to Be freshly made from the kitchen. Some of the fillings I quite liked, but the skin is half the meal right? The pei dan porridge was average, as was the paper wrapped chicken that lacked flavor. We also ordered a plate of kailan from the regular menu, and it was better than the dim sum, but still overcooked. The most awful thing that happened out of all this was the salted egg fish skin (put on our table without us asking for it - but we thought eh, why not). Not only was the flavor less than adequate, the whole bowl was stale to the point where it was inedible. At the end of the meal, with the bowl still full, we complained about its quality. But before my dad could finish his sentence, the manager finished it for him that it was stale. Sooo they fully knew about this but still dared serve it to us?! Service was also deplorable. When seated, staff came with piles and piles of food, quickly plopped on our table like hoping to get rid of the stuff, or make us get things we don't even eat? 90% of the staff were not Chinese, did not speak Chinese, and didn't understand "chili oil" (which as a dim sum restaurant they did not have). Then there was the Filipino waitress who kept telling us repeatedly which baskets has pork in them, not serving us the ones that did, till the point which my dad had to tell her we weren't Muslim. Wtf? The staff who did speak Chinese were nonchalant and her actions speak like she was unwilling to help us get food. The only staff that knew anything about anything and could "problem solve" was the very busy manager. Must be tough on her. Ambience wise is more promising than the foood. Air-conditioning, table cloth and typical 90s Chinese restaurant setting. Toilet did not have toilet paper. For a place like this and food quality, they charge way too much. It was really expensive at RM44/pax and my dad hadn't even ate to his full potential (he said it wasn't worth his calories LOL). There are much better and value for money dim sum places in Johor.

A colleague suggested bringing some customers here for lunch. First time for me. Excellent food and service. Started off with JB style bak kut teh (soup a bit lighter than Klang's style) and various dim sum. Then some dishes which included steamed fish with their signature spicy sauce (tasted like sweet garlic chili sauce). Then soup was served - mini "buddha jump over the wall", excellent soup, probably the standout dish in the whole meal. Then came the Peking duck - which I found to be overshadowed by the soup served earlier.

It was a family lunch. We went at 1130am and realised the dim sum were sold out due to holiday season, therefore we decided to proceed with the chinese dishes lunch. Foods tasted ok, but service was quite lacking. There were just 3 tables in the restaurant, all served but we got to call 4 times before someone come to take order. Then another good 30mins before first dish was served...however we can't start just yet as rice came 5 mins late after we've followed up for 3 times. The great part was a pork dish that came after we've done eating and paid the bill. So we have no choice but to return it. All staffs seem grumpy and blurry, simple routine such as asking for a plate or some chopped garlic would nicely take 3 follow up before it's provided. Overall bad experience for Chinese lunch. Price is not cheap, for its service, this definitely didn't worth the value.
