Signature dishes demonstrate a command of traditional techniques while occasionally venturing into inventive territory.

I came here because I wanted to have Peking Duck. We ordered the Peking Duck Half Duck(北京烤鴨半隻), Barbecue Yunnan Black Pig Char Siu(雲南黑土豬叉燒), Xiao Long Bao(上海小籠包), Yu Shiang Eggplant(魚香茄子煲), and Fried Rice with Egg White and Conpoy(蛋白瑤柱炒飯). For two adults, the half portion of Peking Duck was just the right amount. The recommended Yu Shiang Eggplant had a great texture and seasoning, and I really enjoyed it. Everything was delicious, and I’d love to come back again. The restaurant is located on the 10th floor of Times Square, but the elevator to the 10th floor was a bit hard to find, so I got a little lost. I was also able to pay with Amex.

Greatest Peking Duck in Hong Kong! Incredibly juicy meat and rich flavours while also being in a great location, sometimes a big crowd but you can still get through it. The staff hardly speak english but they will understand your orders. If you are in Hong Kong, you must try this Peking Duck restaurant! It is delicious!

Walked in on a weekday evening. The place was not full; looked clean at first sight and has a quiet and chill vibe. Friendly and polite staff. Food did not take long to be served after ordering. Tried 2 of their signature dishes which were both delicious. The rice in soup was definitely a delight to try as the fried rice crispy added so much more texture to the whole thing. Highly recommend.
