"Redesigned by André Fu Studio in 2025, Duddell's channels the feel of an art collector’s home circa the 1920s with creamy greens, blues, and yellows; the main dining room suits polished business lunches while the Upper Room attracts the creative set who linger over all-day dim sum beneath contemporary artworks or unwind with cocktails. Executive Chef Chan Yau Leung’s refined, labor-intensive Cantonese dishes—like sautéed prawns with chicken essence, steamed flower crab with flat noodles and plum, and the signature crispy fried chicken marinated and 'hang fried' to perfection—showcase skill and balance." - Kate Springer, Janice Leung Hayes
"A Michelin-starred dining destination that elevates Cantonese classics into luxurious plates—highlights include items like braised abalone, honey-glazed barbecue pork and stuffed crab shells—framing meals here as refined culinary experiences." - Taylor McIntyre Taylor McIntyre Taylor McIntyre is a senior visual editor at Dotdash Meredith, working on Travel + Leisure and TripSavvy.

"Duddell’s is as much about art as it is about food. It is the venue of regular art shows and screenings, as well as traditional Cantonese fare using luxury ingredients. Certain dishes need pre-ordering, such as the crispy skin chicken over which the chef ladles hot oil 300+ times to make the paper-thin skin crispy and the meat silky. Osmanthus scrambled eggs with bean sprouts, crabmeat and shrimp are fluffy and aromatic, imparting fine wok hei." - Michelin Inspector
"A Michelin-starred Cantonese restaurant that partners with Cathay Pacific to showcase Hong Kong classics in lounges and onboard menus; its cuisine has been used to elevate in-flight offerings such as sampan congee paired with a curated dim sum selection." - Jake Emen
"Duddell's is known for its "mui tau" char siu, a modern version of the dish made from the pork collar cut, offering alternating layers of lean meat and fat for a remarkable mouthfeel and depth of flavour." - Mandy Li
