  • 1. Ronin

    $$$ | Central

    Hidden behind a signless gray door, Ronin is an ultraslick izakaya-style restaurant that serves some of the most creative seafood dishes in town. The menu is market driven and always features a selection of fresh sashimi. Most dishes are designed to share. Be sure to try the deep-fried fish karaage, which is perfect for pairing with the bar’s extensive selection of Japanese whiskies, sake, or shochu. Word of warning: there are only 14 seats at the bar, and reservations are only accepted via email. You could also head down a few blocks and check out Ronin’s sister restaurant, Yardbird, which serves delicious yakitori (grilled chicken) to an eager, walk-in crowd.

  • 2. Souvla

    $$$ | Central

    This stylish restaurant and bar serves the delicious flavors of the Mediterranean. Start with a round of warm pita bread and savory dips, such as the addictive taramasalata (smoked fish roe blended with lemon and garlic). Other must-try items include the succulent octopus, grilled halloumi cheese, and tender lamb ribs. Of course, you should also try the namesake souvla, which is a Greek-style spit-roasted meat.

    40 D'Aguilar St., Hong Kong, n/a Hong Kong, Hong Kong
    2522–1823
  • 3. The Chairman

    $$$ | Central

    Premium ingredients, traditional recipes, elegant interiors . . . there's a reason The Chairman is often booked out weeks in advance. The forward-thinking Cantonese restaurant is dedicated to sourcing many of its ingredients—from crabs and fish to chicken, pork, and veggies—from local fishmongers and farmers.

    18 Kau U Fong, Hong Kong, n/a Hong Kong, Hong Kong
    2555–2202

    Known For

    • Signature steamed flower crab in rice wine
    • A slow-cooking philosophy and house-made sauces
    • Eschewing dishes such as shark's fin and bird's nest
  • 4. Tim's Kitchen

    $$$ | Western

    Some of the homespun dishes at this restaurant require at least a day’s advance notice and can be pricey, but the extra fuss is worth it. Simpler (and cheaper) options are also available, such as pomelo skin sprinkled with shrimp roe or panfried flat rice noodles.

    84–90 Bonham Strand, Hong Kong, n/a Hong Kong, Hong Kong
    2543–5919

    Known For

  • 5. 22 Ships

    $$$ | Wan Chai

    Enjoy a fun, communal dining experience at this buzzing tapas bar opened by celebrated chef Jason Atherton. Expect a creative and contemporary menu with to-share dishes from Ibérico pork and foie gras miniburgers to toasted bread filled with ham, truffles, and melty manchego cheese. Be sure to arrive early, since the restaurant only seats 38 people around the open kitchen and by the windows. Fortunately, you can always take advantage of the fantastic sherries and sangrias while you wait for a seat outside.

  • 6. Bridges

    $$$ | Causeway Bay

    You may be familiar with mainstream Japanese sushi and sashimi, but Okinawan cooking is something completely different. Dishes from the Ryukyu Islands carry Chinese and American influences, and you’ll find plenty of chanpuru (stir-fry) dishes, as well as obscure delicacies like salt and cookie ice cream. The islands are also credited for their bountiful fresh produce; be sure to try the umi budo “green caviar” sea kelp and the bitter gourd melon. Carnivores, don't fret—Okinawa’s Motobu Wagyu beef and Aguu pork are delicious, well-marbled versions that work well in everything from grills to shabu shabu.

    1 Hoi Ping Rd., Hong Kong, n/a Hong Kong, Hong Kong
    3428–2131
  • 7. Café Deco

    $$$ | Tsim Sha Tsui

    Set in the heart of Tsim Sha Tsui, this convenient, family-friendly restaurant promises views of Victoria Harbour, an outdoor terrace, and a stylish cocktail bar. Though the menu is eclectic enough to keep everyone happy, most people come for the views.

    100 Nathan Rd., Kowloon, n/a Hong Kong, Hong Kong
    2849–5111

    Known For

    • A menu that traverses four or five continents
    • House-made desserts
    • Excellent oysters and seafood

  • 8. Catalunya

    $$$ | Wan Chai

    This is, without a doubt, one of the finest Spanish restaurants in the city. The experience begins with the space itself, which combines Spain’s classical nuances with the contemporary vibe of a cosmopolitan city. There are two main dining rooms where you can enjoy the Catalan-inspired recipes. Highlights from the tapas menu include the bombas (deep-fried pork and beef meatballs covered in potato purée and bread crumbs) and the famous ham, cheese, and truffle “bikini” sandwiches. Another must-try is the Segovian-style roasted suckling pig, which is large enough to feed four. Catalunya also offers exceptional weekend brunches with free-flowing sparkling wine. Book early if you want to join the fun.

  • 9. Clipper Lounge

    $$$ | Central

    The Mandarin Oriental’s Clipper Lounge has long been lauded for serving one of the best afternoon teas in town. Sandwiches and miniature cakes cascade down a multitier stand, and classic scones are served with clotted cream and the restaurant’s famed rose-petal jam. The restaurant also offers sumptuous buffet and à la carte options throughout the day.

    5 Connaught Rd., Hong Kong, n/a Hong Kong, Hong Kong
    2825–4007
  • 10. Crystal Lotus

    $$$

    The first thing you’ll notice here is the most Disney-ish touch: a computer-animated koi pond, where electronic fish dart out of the way as you walk by. Once inside the crystal-studded space, your focus will turn to the food: the pan-Chinese menu includes favorites like Sichuan dan dan noodles, honey-glazed barbecued pork, and double-boiled pear topped with mandarin peel. Kids will get a kick out of the “character dim sum,” which includes pork and vegetable buns shaped like Toy Story’s little green men, and seafood pancakes bearing the likeness of Mickey Mouse. Make sure to order these in advance. If you wind up in Disneyland, this is by far the best way to dine (unless the kids demand a character meal at the Enchanted Garden in the hotel’s lower level).

  • 11. Cuisine Cuisine

    $$$ | Central

    One of the best in the city, this Cantonese restaurant is known for its traditional menu embellished with nouvelle liberties. The restaurant is also loved for its elegant harborside location, which has recently been refurbished into an even sleeker space. In this gorgeous setting, enjoy signature dishes such as sautéed crystal king prawns and fried rice with minced beef and greens.

  • 12. DiVino

    $$$ | Central

    This ultracool wine bar and restaurant serves small plates for casual snacking and mixed platters ideal for sharing. Not surprisingly, it’s popular with the drinks-after-work crowd. But don’t underestimate the food: the tuna tartare with avocado, for starters, is delicious. You can also enjoy cheese and charcuterie for snacking purposes or create your own tapas platter. Gorgonzola and black-truffle penne or lobster linguine with fresh tomatoes are among the best mains. DiVino also stays open for revelry late into the evening.

  • 13. DiVino Patio

    $$$ | Wan Chai

    Located along a stretch of semi-alfresco eateries known as Brim 28 (named after its waterside location on 28 Harbour Road), DiVino Patio touts rustic, homestyle Italian fare to match its laid-back surroundings. The expansive space is designed like a retro grocery store, and you can purchase gourmet condiments, salumi, and cheeses to enjoy on the go. For eat-in orders, try any of the hand-tossed pizzas, or go for one of the succulent selections from the rotisserie. The spit-roasted Vallespluga game hen is exceptional, with tender meat and crispy skin. The restaurant also has an excellent lunchtime antipasti buffet matched with a rotating choice of mains.

    28 Harbour Rd., Hong Kong, n/a Hong Kong, Hong Kong
    2877–3552
  • 14. Dong Lai Shun

    $$$ | Tsim Sha Tsui

    This buzzing Chinese restaurant specializes in Beijing and Huaiyang cuisine and draws a following for its upscale atmosphere and its stellar appetizers (try the smoked eggs and crispy eel), hand-cut noodles, traditional Peking duck, and award-winning combo dishes such as wok-fried crabmeat, rock lobster, and salted egg yolk served on rice crackers.

    69 Mody Rd., Kowloon, n/a Hong Kong, Hong Kong
    2733–2020

    Known For

    • Inner Mongolian shuan yang rou (mutton hotpot)
    • Having more than 100 restaurants across China
    • Special hairy crab menu (only available in the fall)
  • 15. FINDS

    $$$ | Tsim Sha Tsui

    The name stands for Finland, Iceland, Norway, Denmark, and Sweden, and these Nordic countries are from where the restaurant draws its inspiration. Finnish chef Jaakko Sorsa explores the flavors of his home country with dishes such as house-smoked salmon and wild game pâté served with rowanberry jelly. The menu expands from there to cover other parts of Scandinavia; be sure to try the Danish smørrebrød open-faced sandwiches and the Daim parfait—a crunchy, sticky, layered dessert based on a popular Swedish chocolate bar. Another reason to love FINDS? The restaurant is a firm supporter of eco-conscious eating, and you'll find seafood specials on the menu that have been sustainably sourced.

    39 Kimberley Rd., Kowloon, n/a Hong Kong, Hong Kong
    2522–9318
  • 16. FoFo by el Willy

    $$$ | Central

    The Hong Kong outpost of Shanghai’s popular restaurant is showy, with a snow-white interior decked out with designer chairs and fiberglass animal figurines. On the food side of things, authentic tapas share menu space with creatively contemporary Spanish dishes. Ibérico ham served with tomato bread, sautéed prawns with garlic, and chilled tomato gazpacho represent the classics, and they’re certainly well executed, but the modern dishes offer much more excitement. Scallop ceviche, for instance, is laid on a bed of creamy avocados and topped with crispy shallots, while braised beef cheek is served with bananas and passion fruit. The paellas are also worth trying, whether steeped in the flavors of Boston lobster or bathed in jet-black squid ink.

  • 17. Fusion 5th Floor

    $$$ | Western

    This culinary gem does modern-fusion cuisine without any pretentious gimmicks. The food is well thought out and expertly executed in a constantly changing, market-driven menu. Reasonably priced set lunch and dinner menus are available, but the tasting menu (six or eight courses) is the way to go. Sunday brunch here is legendary, and requires booking several weeks ahead. The food is paired with friendly and attentive service.

  • 18. Han Ga Ram

    $$$ | Wan Chai

    Come here for a refined, modern rendition of classic Korean cuisine. Barbecued meats are a must, and we especially recommend the sam gyup sal (thick slabs of pork belly). Moving away from the conventional dishes, Han Ga Ram also offers a few newfangled creations such as bulgogi beef and spicy pork sliders, which are available on the lunch menu. Traditionalists may want to wash down their meal with soju (a distilled rice liquor), but the staff is also happy to suggest wine pairings to go with each dish.

    202 Queen's Rd., Hong Kong, n/a Hong Kong, Hong Kong
    2891–5090
  • 19. Isola

    $$$ | Central

    Located within the International Finance Center, Isola’s floor-to-ceiling windows and harborside terrace afford spectacular views of Hong Kong’s famous skyline. The restaurant serves regional Italian fare, with selections like hand-twisted pasta with Parma ham, black truffle, fava beans, and Norcia cheese, or sea bass baked in sea-salt crust. Don't pass up the simple and well-executed stone-baked pizzas. Isola is also as much of a nighttime destination as anything else, and it’s worth coming just to sample cocktails in the equally trendy Isobar upstairs.

  • 20. Jimmy's Kitchen

    $$$ | Central

    One of the oldest restaurants in Hong Kong, Jimmy’s Kitchen opened in 1928 and continues to serve comfort food from around the world in a private-club atmosphere. The handy location just off Queen’s Road in Central and a menu that offers a wide selection of dishes—including steak, borscht, goulash, bangers and mash, curry, and burgers—have made Jimmy’s a favorite with both Chinese locals and tourists looking for a taste of home. It’s not cheap, but it’s a good choice for a night out with friends, especially if your group’s cravings are pulling you in different directions.
