Ho Hung Kee Congee & Noodle

Lunch today was at a mall restaurant, but not just any mall restaurant. It has one Michelin star. Prices were reasonable, which I appreciated. As for the food… let’s just say it was a bit on the mild side for my taste 😅 Not bad, just gentler than I expected from a Michelin spot.

After running the Hong Kong Marathon and grabbing a quick shower, my wife and I stopped by Ho Hung Kee for a late lunch. We came here knowing it had a Michelin star, but this isn’t your typical upscale restaurant. Instead, it offers local Hong Kong dishes in a clean, elevated way that feels special without being overly fancy. We ordered their famous wonton noodles and also shared the beef chow fun. The wonton noodles truly stole the show—the broth was salty yet rich, and felt like it washed away all the fatigue from the race. I only wish we had ordered the larger size! Service was okay, though not particularly warm, which is often the case at busy local spots. Still, if you’re looking for a spot to enjoy clean, flavorful wonton noodles in Hong Kong, this place is worth a visit.

The house special wonton noodle soup is the restaurant's claim to fame, earning for 16 years running and deserving of a one-star Michelin rating, but I would say their congees are just as spectacular. They're delightfully generous with the century egg in the congee, too. The liver congee is soul-satisfying—if you're into innards, that is. I'd happily eat here two (maybe three haha) times a week. For me, this place takes the crown for best shrimp wontons (yeah, way better than Mak's) and best congee of any kind (yes, even surpassing Tasty Congee). Tip: do try their tasty carrot & radish atchara, no extra charge, it’s just there on every table.

delightful noodle spot 🍜 large selection and good service. the house special wonton noodle soup was delicious with a rich broth and well made wontons. the ginger sugarcane drink was also delicious, appreciated the free tea too. would return, many payment methods too :)

This is much better than the one at the airport. The wanton noodle was pleasant to eat. However, the soup picked up the alkali taste from the noodles. The wanton skin was silky smooth but the meat could be more fragrant and tasty. The pan-fried Radish cake had a generous amount of shrimp and cured meat. The highlight was the sesame paste dessert. It was silky smooth, not too sweet and had the toasted aroma. The restaurant is spacious and comfortable.

I tried the hongkong wonton noodle upon arrival at the airport outside terminal. The broth which comes w it is very authentically Hongkong. Love it! Most of the noodles and chilli oil are seriously delicious. Visiting Hongkong, milktea is a must try beverages. When you dine in, tea is a must to pay despite it's cheap and you don't want it. The waitress who served us was not that friendly and kind of too lazy to serve people. I guess we hv to get use to such attitude when in Hongkong? Really?😞 The ser

Good stir fry beef rice noodles. Wonton is good. Congee is better than average.

Cheapest Michelin Star in Hong Kong. Tasty food but nothing amazing. Very solid but not WOW! Worth a try!

Ho Hung Kee is located inside Hysan Mall. During busy times, you take a ticket from a machine and they'll call out your number. I didn't realize how big the restaurant was inside. They had the Michelin stars along the wall. I was solo dining and ordered a wonton noodle soup. It was a larger size and the wontons were juicy with large pieces of shrimp. The noodles were perfectly cooked and bouncy. It certainly wasn't the cheapest bowl of wonton noodle soup but I enjoyed it nevertheless.

Didn't realize this place had a Michelin star because it's inside of a mall. Went on a Wednesday around dinner time and it wasn't busy. Came for the Lo mein and wontons. Also ordered jellyfish and pork liver and intestines. Everything was super flavorful. Pork liver was cooked to a different level of perfection. Soft and zero chalkiness. Waitresses were friendly. They've had one star for 4 years now. Will definitely come back when I visit again.

Loved: wonton dumpling congee. Dislike: (shocking how bad it tasted) The rice roll with the chinese donut. It was not worth it and I would not recommend at all. Overall, staff was nice. Interior: Good. Plenty of seats.

Unfortunately, I do not understand the hype this place has as a "Michelin Guide" restaurant. It was very disappointing, even with regular restaurant standards. I will say, this place being "Michelin Guide" is quite affordable. However, the food sucked, to put it bluntly. i ordered a large Wonton Noodle Soup, the very dish they are known for. The bowl was very small, like a small side of rice bowl. It was not not even a regular size wonton noodle soup. The entire dish, from the soup, the wontons, and even the noodles, lacked a lot of flavor. In addition to this order, I got the bbq pork with egg noodles dry. Again, the noodles just weren't that great. Like they were super thin and didn't have much of a crisp crunch to it, which indicates it may have been overcooked. All in all, I do not recommend nor will return. The service was okay. The food did come out fast, so I appreciate that. The place was packed when I went. Lots of seating and bright restaurant. It is located in a mall.

With an extensive history in Hong Kong's food scene that dates back close to 80 years, Ho Hung Kee (何洪記) went from being a street food stall to becoming a Michelin starred restaurant in Causeway Bay. Currently located in Hysan Place, it has been a popular spot for congee, wonton noodles, and Hong Kong cafe type foods. A far cry from their initial start as a humble street stall, their current iteration of a fancier place feels a little gimmicky and the decor seems to lend itself to the latter. The place is bright, clean, but with a hard emphasis with green and white colors all over. It feels sort of like a teahouse with a dash of colorful movie set with lots of seating. It just doesn't strike me as a place to get congee and wontons, but there's no doubt the decor is extremely unique. If we're going exclusively on food alone, this place is fabulous. They have expanded their offerings since moving to this space a decade ago and have an extensive picture menu that strangely reminds me of the new ones at Tsui Wah. It's complete with English and descriptions and understandably, inflated prices. Their signature wonton noodle soup (雲吞麵) comes in a small (4 pieces) or large (6 pieces) with a clear, flavorful broth. The wontons themselves are not too big but deliver a big bite. The noodles have a certain bite to them, which makes them firmer than the average wonton noodle shop out there. I also think highly of their congee, especially the classic century egg and pork (皮蛋瘦肉粥) which has a smooth and creamy finish. The seasoning is so on point that the meat melts and the century egg only adds to the texture. Combine this with their excellent stir fried beef ho noodle (乾炒牛河) and their rice wrapped bread stick (香油條腸粉 which is really just 炸兩) and it immediately becomes an ideal meal. Some other surprises include their fried fish balls (炸鯪魚球) and their shrimp pomelo skin (蝦子柚皮). The latter is a pomelo peel that has been marinated in a soup, which is then laid over a bed of shrimp and noodles for a really unique and tasty dish. It was something I've never had previously and it turned out be a big hit. Is the hype real? Yes and no. I think the experience is worth trying for fans of this type of food, but I don't think their previous Michelin status should be the main reason for the visit. Given the variable service, I think I can understand why the star hasn't been awarded in recent years but the mention in their guide will be enough to keep the people coming.

Beautifully decorated restaurant that almost reminds me of being inside a Tiffany jewelry box. However, the food didn't meet my expectations as a Michelin star restaurant. The fish skin was overly salty and wasn't very crunchy. The wonton noodles had an EXTREMELY strong ammonia taste and smell that I had to drown out with vinegar. I've never had ammonia smell this strong from these noodles elsewhere. The noodles weren't as springy either. Located a mall in Causeway Bay, prices were a little bit higher.

Call me crazy but after eating Michelin goose 2 hours ago, we are now eating at Ho Hung See. The very first wonton noodle restaurant to receive a Michelin star. The soup is a tad bit salty for my palette but the shrimp wontons were delish! Also ordered other dimsum dishes such as steamed chicken feet, steamed pork bun (3 in a basket and ate it all. Sooo goood!!!!) steam brown sugar sponge cake, meatball congee (this was sooo goood!!!) and my favorite Chinese dessert osmanthus jelly with red wolf berry.

Very clean interior. The wonton and dumpling noodles soup were very good. The beef brisket noodle soup was very good as well. The portions were small so ordering the stir fried beef Ho fun was not too much food.

Some dishes are single person servings. Food come out very fast. Food comes out warm. Not hot. But taste is great!

I had the best wonton soup noodle in my life at Ho Hung Kee. I loved the wonton, the noodle, and the soup. The other dishes such as the vegetable and the pork liver and porridge were also excellent. I would highly recommend Ho Hong Kee to all my friends. Please go there a little early unless you are prepared to wait for a while.

This is the Parent Restaurant of my favourite noodle place: Tasty Congee & Noodles ( Happy Valley Branch ). Originally, they are located across the street of Time Square on street level, in a very small space. Space is bright with very light color scheme, I would say the interior design is a bit out of place for this type of restaurant, but who am I to judge. Food wise it is top notch! Noodles are done just right, we ordered both wonton and sui gau to try out and both were done to the right consistency but my personal choice lean on the sui gas more. I especially like their Fujian Fried Rice; rich silky sauce and full of ingredients such as scallops, prawns, diced BBQ Duck, mushroom, etc. Service wise, we were greeted at the front by their hostess who is very friendly and polite, she made sure we had a booth and also came to make sure we have our tea cups filled throughout out meal! This is a good place to take a break after you have done your shopping and enjoy some wholesome wonton soup!!

Ho Hung is a popular place for both tourists and locals. When ever I come you will see a good mix of both. As the name suggests they are known for their noodles and congee. Their wonton noodles is one of the better ones in town. They also serve select dim sum and some stir fry dishes as well. Food: 4 stars Service/environment: 3.5 stars Overall: 3.75 stars Recommendations: wonton noodle soup, fried beef flat noodle, crispy shrimp roll If you come here you really need to order the wonton noodle soup. It hits all the notes that you look for. The noodles are nice and springy and soup has a rich depth of flavor to it and has tons of umami. The wontons for me are more complimentary part and these are good here too.

We tried the signature wonton noodle soup, beef chow fun, chicken feet, fried cruller wrapped in rice noodle, and fried custard buns. The noodles were al dente and the wontons had a silky wrapping with 2-3 shrimp inside. The chow fun was lighter in color than what we are used to but still had a great taste. I was disappointed with the chicken feet as it had a strangely thick sauce that was overly salty. The fried cruller wrapped in rice noodle was freshly fried and crispy, with the a delicate rice noodle. If you have a wonton noodle craving and want a more fancy feel, this is your spot. The decor is fancy!

Knowing that it was going to be packed lunch hour, I arrived almost when Ho Hung Kee was about to open. Fortunately, I was able to snag a table, but it definitely got crowded within 15 minutes. While it's a little pricey for the style of food you're getting, the quality is apparent. I went for the signature wonton noodle soup (雲吞麺). The large size would be a small in the States. However, the noodles were quite good, with a nice bite to them. The wontons had a delicate wrapping and plump shrimp inside. The broth was very clear and clean, but with a savory flavor. While there is red vinegar, if a broth is flavorful enough, you don't really need red vinegar. The fried cruller wrapped in rice noodle (炸兩) was one of the best I've ever had. The cruller was freshly fried and crispy, with the rice noodle super transparent and delicate. The rice noodle was opaque and barely wrapped around the cruller. Service was decent, though it is clearly advantageous if you know Cantonese. I'm not a big fan of the decor here, as I feel like I'm in some bizarre b-movie sci-fi/fantasy ice palace...even though the cold never bothered me anyway. :-P

Are you a shrimp wonton lover like I am? Delicately wrapped and crisp shrimp in every bite is what you'll find here. The broth is so flavorful it is hard not to slurp the entire bowl of wonton soup. The atmosphere is dazzling with a modern and clean feel. Service is prompt and efficient, so fast paced that our dessert actually came out before our meal. The beef chow fun was also nicely prepared, with a small amount of char on the noodles and a decent amount of sliced beef. The wontons were a clear winner as each bite was full of shrimp and the seasoning of the broth was slightly peppery. We ended our course with a refreshing osmanthus flower jelly with wolfberries. I definitely recommend this place to all the wonton addicts out there!

One Star Michelin restaurant - Ho Hung Kee Congee & Noodle Wantun Shop A little history about Ho Hung Kee... Ho Hung Kee started as a small food stall by a gentleman named Ho Wing Fong and his wife in 1946. It was well-liked by locals, senior government officials, celebrities and acclaimed businessmen. Fast forward to present days, Ho Hung Kee is still very popular and reputable for its high quality service and food. From 2009 to 2011, Ho Hung Kee was featured in the recommendation list of the Michelin Guide of Hong Kong. In 2012, it was awarded a star in Michelin Guide. So how was the experience for me? Service was A+; staff was friendly and helpful. Tea was constantly served. Food: Wonton noodles - A+ : noodles was perfect in texture or qq if you know what I meant. The shrimps inside the wontons were so fresh. Soup was light but tasty. Bean curd with prawns - A : in general I do not like bean curd skin especially those in dim sum places. The bean curd skin here was very thin and no funky taste. Congee with meat balls & leaned pork meat - A+ The congee was delicious with savory meat balls and leaned meat. Cheong fun (rice noodle roll) with BBQ pork - B+ The rice noodle a little too thick for my liking Flat wide noodles with beef - B : The flat wide noodles would be a lot better if fried for a longer time. Not too tasty; a little bland. Would I ever come back? Sure, but not for anything which I ranked less than an A. In general, stick to the wonton noodles and congee. Decor is nice and I like the turquoise color found on the seats and lighting fixtures in the restaurant.

They're on "Michelin" list of distinguished restaurants.??? In my opinion they are an overpriced and below subpar quality diner on two of the items we ordered. Two of the most popular cantonese dishes: Beef with stir fried flat noodles, and Yang Chow fried rice were total ripoffs. The beef noodles were featured on a large poster at the entrance, as well as on the Michelin website. It shows generous portion of sliced beef on top of the noodles. What we got that day were, and I counted, 5 small slices of thin beef! The Yang Chow fried rice typically include many chopped ingredients, including roast pork, shrimps and shredded eggs. What was servied, and I counted, 3 shrimps each the size of a US quarter, no meat and no egg shreads ! How did these people got the Michelin award? I wonder if that was awarded in 1940's when the founding fathers were there, and never updated? I am sad to see such a reputable family business degraded to this condition

Ho Hung Kee might not be the hole in the wall hidden gem but still worth visiting if you want to experience traditional every day Cantonese food. Located in Hysan Place right in the heart of CWB. Easily accessed by MRT, trams and buses. They are even carry on suitcases friendly as a lot of tourists or out of town visitors does drop by before going the Airport. Arriving early before the lunch rush and we ended up get seated in a comfortable booth right away. After eating in Hong Kong for awhile, I can no longer take for granted that one can enjoy their meals in clean, private and spacious space without rubbing elbows or even sharing tables with strangers. Ho Hung Kee, though a little pricier but sometimes it worth the higher prices. Plain Congee ($29) 明火瑤柱米王粥 Rice Roll with Fried Dough ($48) 香油條腸粉炸両 Wonton Noodle Soup ($39) 正斗鮮蝦云呑面 All were freshly prepared and delicious! I love the bouncy bite of my noodle and the perfectly cooked one bite wontons. The rice roll so thin and almost transparent. Plain Congee so soft and fluffy with a nice contrast of fried shredded dried scallops. 10% auto gratuity added but the service was fast and friendly.

There is only one place in Hong Kong that has better wonton noodles than this shop and is not that much better. But this is the only place that will give you napkins. You might think that is not much but in Hong Kong, most restaurant don't give you napkins so good luck trying to find something to wipe your mouth after you eat elsewhere! Oh, did I mention this place is cleaner than most the noodle shop in Hong Kong as well? As for food, order the wonton noodles, congee, the bamboo wrapped sticky rice and the fried donut wrapped in rice noodle. Those are their best dishes by far! You won't regret the quality of the food here!

The restaurant at the Causeway Bay location is the one that is awarded a Michelin star. Do not confuse this with the other HHK locations, even though they all serve the same food. Specialities here include the wonton noodles, congee and also the beef chow fun. We had the wonton noodles, some congee, and also an order of zhaliang (rice noodle roll wrapped around fried dough). This is as authentic as you can get, the soup base for the wonton noodles is a fish soup base you won't get anywhere else that elevates the entire dish. The wonton is also delicious and thinly wrapped, leaving you full but not feeling heavy after your meal. The quality of the congee is of the highest as they include large chunks of preserved egg, fish, pig parts, etc. Definitely check out this location if you have the chance.

Michelin rated dim sum. Say no more. PROS: Congee (chicken & mushroom) BBQ pork & Noodle soup Shrimp & pork bean curd wrap Char siu pork in rice noodle Beautiful interior CONS: 12th floor of a mall location Expensive (worth every penny) Line to get in (goes fast)

We came at an awkward time (2-3pm) and it was still fairly busy inside, but we were seated right away. This place is one michelin and ambiance inside is clean and fairly nice. Service is not bad. Its located in Hysan Place in CWB. Take the elevator up to the food floor. We came here for a quick lunch and had their wonton noodles. The noodles were chewy and al dente. The wontons were pretty decent sized and the broth was very good; very clean and clear. It was a quick in and out meal and it was very efficient. Would definitely recommend.

Disclaimer: I prefer Shanghainese wonton noodle soup. Not that I knew before trying this place, but this wonton soup tasted really artificial, in a metallic/plastic way. I also didn't like the noodles. Or the wontons. I really didn't like any of it. And yes, it is quite pricy and stingy on the wontons.

I went around 9pm since I got out of work late. The place was still 80% full at that time! Of course, got an order of the wonton noodle soup. Gotta say, it's pretty damn legit. Broth was really flavorful and the noodle's texture was on point. Wontons were great too. It doesn't look like much but that small bowl was pretty filling haha. They also have dim sum items so I got an order of the Shrimp Changfun. The texture of the changfun was great and the soy sauce dressing for it was very good. Next time, definitely going with more people to try out more of the menu!

Ho Hung Kee was a restaurant that stood out when I searched for "Best Wonton Noodles in Hong Kong" mainly because it was one of a few that was rewarded a Michelin star, so I had to give it a shot. It was not obvious to find at first because it's not a shop off the street, it's located in Hysan Place, a shopping mall. It took me by surprise because in the States, the only restaurants in shopping malls are shitty chains and fast food joints. You'll have to take an elevator to the 12th floor, which also has other restaurants nearby. The interior was comfortable and clean, quite modern as well for Hong Kong standards. It was late afternoon and surprisingly, the restaurant was relatively empty. We sat down and ordered the staple wonton noodles ($50), beef cheung fun or rice noodle roll, and jellyfish. The wonton noodles are delicious, the noodles were al dente and had a fantastic bite. The soup was very light, but also flavorful. The wontons itself were small, but the wrap was smooth and the bite in the filling was bouncy and tasty. I still prefer Mak's wonton noodles because it's a bit cheaper and the soup is a bit more flavorful. The beef cheung fun was one of the best I've had, the rice noodle roll was translucent and very fresh, the beef was tasted very beefy and flavorful without being overly salty. The jelly fish was meh, very bland and watery. Definitely worth a visit.

Ho Hung Kee, it made my list of places to visit in Hong Kong as it is a Michelin 1 Starred restaurant & thought it was worth checking out for their Beef Hor Fun. I visited at the old location on my own, & admit I will go back to try it again at the new location & take my friend along that I was suppose to be there with to see what her take is on it all. The visit was all about trying the Beef Hor Fun, as I'm a fan of this dish, & with their great reputation I expected great things. The service was lacking, & I was ferried onto a tiny, tiny table (kiddy size) to share with a family. They were sharing some congee, & noodles & dosing their young daughter up on orange fanta. I ordered myself a plate of beef or fun & a coke & waited.. I didn't wait long & before I knew it another traveler had been placed onto our table, I wasn't quite sure how were all going to fit on the small table with our food. It was tight, & felt a little invasive of personal space, then again I have to remind myself, I'm in Hong Kong, personal space doesn't exist. My noodles arrived & my coke, I have to admit it wasn't the best Hor Fun I've ever had in my life, it was lacking flavour & greatness, which was a bit of a shame as I'd been looking forward to it so much. The family on the table continue to share congee, noodles, & fanta... I did think this was strange combination, little did I know I'd soon be receiving dinner & a show, as the young girl proceeded to vomit a combination of congee, noodles & fanta onto our share table. (if only I had a photo) The other tourist & I gave each other side glances, & commented on the unfortunate situation, I have to admit it contributed to putting me off my very average plate of noodles. The small table making it all the worse, as it was so close it felt like it was in 3D & at any moment I'd be right in it. In my eyes the Beer Hor Fun was average, I've had much better for cheaper at hawker markets & food halls in Singapore. I'll try it again, but must admit the best thing about this meal was the reliable coke I had to wash it down & perhaps the unexpected show that I'll never forget. ;-)

Came here for lunch because I was craving traditional wonton noodle soup. We ended up ordering that plus Sui kow, za leung (Chinese doughnuts wrapped with rice noodles), braised pomelo skin which was really awful. The rest was good but not mind blowing. This is a 1-star Michelin but I'm not convinced that it is well deserved.

This is a locally famous noodle and congee house that was awarded a Michelin star back in 2012. We came and tried their congee and beef cheng fun (rice noodles). The beff cheng fun might have been the best we've ever had, or at least tied as we have had some good servings over the years. The congee was good, but not best ever good. It was refreshing to eat again in a comfortable, clean, and spacious setting after just hitting some tiny, local HK cafes. This restaurant is located on the 12th floor of Hysan Place shopping center in Causeway Bay.

Was searching for Michelin Star restaurants and came across Ho Hung Kee in Hysan Place in Causeway Bay Area. Arrived around 6:30pm and beat the dinner rush. Upon arriving, one needs to indicate the number in your party on a machine which then issues you a ticket. We were seated after waiting about 10 mins. Ordered the large House Special wonton noodle soup, lean pork and preserved duck egg congee, and a fried donut fritter. The large soup came with 6 wontons. The wontons, noodles and soup base were very good. The only complaint is that the wontons were a bit small. I had just returned from a weekend in Macao and ate at Wong Chi Kei, the renowned wonton noodle place there. By comparison, their wontons are about twice the size. The congee was excellent. Lots of chunks of egg and meat, and the congee was cooked just right. The fried donut fritter was also very good. It was freshly fried and very crispy, an excellent compliment to the congee. Overall would recommend trying this restaurant.

Great service! I tried the famous Wonton soup and the wontons were wonderful but the broth lacked a bit of flavor. Other dishes were great as well and this is definitely a must see place in Hong Kong

Out of the multitude of restaurants in hysan place, this is one to avoid. I should've known as this was the one place that did not have a wait on a Friday evening. It's an expensive dim sum restaurant that doesn't live up to the price. The shrimp rice rolls 蝦腸粉 are bland and the rice rolls are way too thick. The spicy pork noodles are smothered in oil and overpowering. The interesting thing was the shrimp rice roll omelette, which was also disappointing.. Add on the fact that they charged us 3HKD for each cup of tea without even warning us to begin with. I can't give this play more than one star. I was very disappointed.

3.5/5 stars Had it not been a "Michelin starred" restaurant, I would've given it 1 EXRA stars. It is located on the 12th floor of Hysan Place shopping center in Causeway Bay. Ordered: 1) Wonton Mien: 4/5 Wow, the noodles were really good--very firm 2) Beef Cheng fun: 4/5 yum!!! 3) Chinese donut with sweet soy sauce: 4/5 YUM We ordered other dishes, but they were not worth mentioning. I would highly recommend those 3 dishes above.

5 stars! One star each for Service, Food, Ambience, Price and "Will I come back?" Ho Hung Kee has moved to this sparkly new place on the 12th floor of Hysan Place. Even though the reason for the move is ugly, the fresh, clean restaurant is BEAUTIFUL. (TL;DR version of why they moved: They got really really popular, landlords raised the rent ridiculously high or something. Greed wins again.) Noodles in light broth was springy and delicious. I had mine with slices of lightly cooked liver. SO good. (See pics!) I also ordered steamed rice rolls with prawn filling. Fresh and savoury goodness. Service is very brisk but pleasant. Miles better than the normal surly service you'd get from the more local restaurants. Price is slightly higher than what you'd pay in local cafes, but for the cleanliness, speed and good food, the price is very fair. Ambiance is great, you'd love how fast they turn tables here. Usually there is a line, but it moves fast. "Will I come back?" Yes. I dream of the noodles.

This is probably the easiest way to get a Michelin star under your belt. I had the shrimp egg noodles and the shrimp eggs were generous and just tasted great. The attentiveness to the texture of the noodles is remarkable. Also had some sides - deep fried wontons and steamed fish skin. The Fish skin was interesting. The fried wontons were average. And what's a Michelin Star without an expensive item - I want to come back for their Abalone congee. Looks great.

Hong Kong has got some pretty cheap Michelin Star restaurants and this is one of them. Of the three that I went to, this was probably my least favorite as there was no dish that truly blew my mind, but everything was still very delicious. We had the stir-fried rice noodles with beef, shrimp dumplings, Crab Roe Siu Mei, beef congee, and fried stick rice dumping with pork and shrimp. My favorite dish was definitely the noodles. The waiter told us they were one of the more popular items, and they didn't disappoint. They are fried just perfectly, and the beef is so soft and tender. We were also told that the Congee was very good, and I have to say, it really was. Congee is a pretty basic dish, but this one is really good!

Recipes remain unchanged for over six decades. Last time I had wonton mein was over seven years ago in their ground floor restaurant, and it tastes exactly how it was before. Keep it simple, this place definitely reminds me of what a traditional mom and pop shop outta be.

Beware, the small bowl of wonton noodles is actually quite small which is sad because of how good it is. The broth is the best part

WONTON NOODLES is the must try when you visit Hong Kong. And this one Michelin starred restaurant can deliver that with high quality in a comfy ambiance. You can find good wonton noodles place easily everywhere in HK. But to have a comfortable higher end setting and yet good quality casual cantonese food, that combination is just not as common here in HK. In addition, their congee was also pretty well made. My favorite dish here other than the wonton noodles was the FRIED STUFFED PEPPERS AND EGGPLANT.

Such a pleasant surprise stumbling upon a 1 Michelin star wonton noodle shop while shopping in Causeway Bay. The interior is astonishingly well-kept and upscale given the kind of food being served though with prices still totally reasonable, who am I to complain? My brother and I were thoroughly impressed with the freshness of the shrimp in the wonton and the resilience in the noodles. Even more impressive was the pork liver congee, great flavor and the freshest liver I've tasted yet by a sizable margin. Service was mad efficient as with any respectable wonton noodle joint.

The place feels very clean and the service was fast and quick. Order the congee I think it's what it is known for?

Although we got there right when it opened, there was already a line out the door. I got my favorite: congee with preserved egg and salt pork, with a side of you tiao (Chinese fried doughnut), and Husband ordered noodle soup with shrimp wontons. The food was good, but the service was terrible for a "fancier" restaurant, and it wasn't exclusive to us. Surrounding tables got their orders mixed up and/or side dishes served too late. Unfortunately, I will not return. There are way too many other congee and noodle shops to sample! I would give it a 2 but for the food being pretty good. They certainly didn't receive a Michelin star because of their service.

I did not like this place. I came for the famed wonton noodle soup. First the wait. My in laws (Taiwanese) were trying to get a table. There are pieces of paper and screens with wait times. There were lots of empty tables and the in laws were seeing why we were waiting, the staff was kinda rude to them, and gave them a 30 minute to 60 minute wait estimate. 30 seconds later the staff spotted me (white) and asked if I wanted a table immediately (no waiting, no paper with a number). They immediately took us to one of the empty tables. So yeah...that happened....... I ordered the famous soup everyone keeps talking about. It was OK. Not great. Not worth the star.

Food is pretty good but price is also pretty hefty. Consider there are many other places that offer good quality noodles and congees, I would say this is just an ok. It definitely has some history behind the place and you are definitely paying for it.

Ho Hung Kee is your typical congee and noodle shop. They're famous for their wonton noodles, so this is definitely a must-try. It comes in two sizes, small or big. Small really is tiny and big is what I consider to be regular (and I'm not a big eater) so I'd suggest that you get big, unless you just had a large meal and really aren't that hungry. The noodles are nice and crunchy, and the soup base is not overly salty. I LOVE the wonton - its skin is soft, thin and doesn't overwhelm the shrimp, and the shrimp itself is tender and juicy. Another favorite at Ho Hung Kee is their congee - I'm not a huge fan of congee, so I can't speak for it much but my mother loves it. They have a very extensive choice of congees, ranging from the traditional preserved egg with meat to bolder ones like pigs' intestine. If you like congee, you'll be delighted because there really is a huge choice to choose from! The deep fried dough in rice noodle roll is amazing here - crunchy on the inside, yet soft on the outside. It's more expensive than your typical congee and noodle shop that can be found on every street corner, but it's worth it. You get to sit comfortably in a nice restaurant and the quality of the food is on par. It's usually packed at around lunch or dinner times, especially on weekends, and you'll almost definitely have to get a number to wait in line. Once, my mother and I decided to eat here in the late afternoon as we knew there'd be a lot less people, but the food was of noticeably lower quality - we concluded that it might be because the usual chefs are off at this hour, so I wouldn't recommend going at an odd in-between hour like we did.

I came here by myself and really just wanted to enjoy a good meal alone in a nice restaurant where I wouldn't be packed in like a sardine. I just walked in and only about 3 tables were occupied, 10 open tables. The manager sat me down with another person who came alone. Wtf??? For their convenience so they can just clean one table instead of 2. That is so bad and whack. It ruined my entire meal, it was so awkward ... I can't even remember eating any of my food. My dishes came right in the middle of our table... was I supposed to share with the stranger?!?!? Horrible ....

As the sole wonton noodles Michelin starred restaurant, I had to give it a try! Unfortunately for me, it was terrible overhyped...that's not to say it's all bad.... I had the thousand year old egg + pork congee and, of course, a bowl of wonton noodles. The congee definitely stole the show - it's rare to find such perfectly made congee with just the right texture...not too watery and not too rice-y. It's top notch quality and the ingredients used are perfect! On the other hand, you also have the famous house specialty, their wonton noodles. It was sadly just okay - I had expected it to have the best wontons (which in my mind would have been large prawns, thin skin, perfect broth). Acceptable, but not deserving of a Michelin star in my eyes. As usual in any top restaurant, you can also ask for an English menu here :)

This was one of the more disappointing places out of all my foodie adventures. We came here because I had been craving wonton noodle soup ever since I have landed. This place raved about being one of the best wonton places in HK and also boast their one star michelin award for their wonton. It was one of the most basic shrimp wonton noodle soup I have ever had. Wonton was mediocre and was just okay. Just a hint of shrimp flavor. The broth was very sad and it was super bland. Definitely will not come back here. I am just glad I did not have to wait at all. Plus, the size was super small...maybe I am a fat American, but wow this was disappointing.

Very dependable congee and noodles. Unfortunately all the wonton have shrimp, which I'm allergic to so my bf tried it. The shredded pork and preserved egg porridge is the best congee I've had. The beef chow fun is super good too. What I like the most about their food is that it tastes really fresh and healthy. Typically, it's easy to make the congee salty and the chow fun greasy but somehow Ho Hung Kee is able to make it just right. I thoroughly enjoyed the food.
