Mak Man Kee Noodle Shop

We visited this spot because it’s one of those well-known Michelin Guide restaurants—and for good reason. The menu is simple with just a few options, but everything is done really well. Their standout dish is the tiger prawn, which you can have with soup or dry noodles. The noodles had that perfect chewy texture with a nice “push and pull” when you bite into them. The flavors were balanced and satisfying. Even the steamed greens were incredibly fresh and complemented the meal beautifully. We got seated quickly, and service was efficient. They also stay open late, making it a great option for a quality midnight snack. Prices are reasonable for the quality, and you can really taste the care in each dish. It’s no surprise they’re part of the Michelin Guide 2025—they’ve clearly kept their standards high over the years. Simple but seriously good. I’d definitely go back and highly recommend it.

Noodle is bouncy, Al dente slightly hard, perfect for most wanton mee lovers. The dry version is too dry as the noodle was clumpy upon arrival and has slight alkaline taste. If you like spring onion, must order the noodle with spring onion version but funnily, it does not come with wanton which you need to order separately and it is totally worth it. The wantons meat ball size, each packed tightly with prawn and pork, lightly seasoned and the natural sweetness comes through and through. Seating space is quite tight, 4 seater booths and you are expected to share table if your booth is not fully occupied. Service is perfunctory though they would not scold you or hurry you but don’t expect courtesy. Highly recommended if you like to try authentic wanton mee in hk

Mak Man Kee Noodle Shop @ Jordan – Big Wontons, Classic Noodles, Rushed Service 🍜🇭🇰 We visited during dinner hour and waited about 20 minutes for a seat, eventually getting one at the very corner of the shop. The place is always busy, and service was quick but quite impatient, which is common in old-school Hong Kong noodle shops. The noodles had a strong 碱水味 (alkaline/lye water taste), which may not be to everyone’s liking. But the 云吞 (wontons) were a standout—large, juicy, and filled with fresh-tasting meat. If you’re after authentic Hong Kong-style wonton noodles, this place still delivers in flavor, especially for the wontons—but expect a fast-paced, no-frills dining environment. 2 🌟 - Below Average: Needs improvement in multiple areas, not meeting expectations. 3 🌟 - Standard, Average: Meets basic expectations, nothing exceptional but acceptable. 4 🌟 - Standard, Above Average: Exceeds expectations slightly, better than the norm. 5 🌟 - Special & Unique: Outstanding experience, highly memorable and exceptional.

Yo, listen up! If you’re in Hong Kong and wanna get a taste of the real deal street food, you gotta hit up Mak Man Kee Noodle Shop—it's a total game changer! This place is a Michelin fave, and trust me, it’s still holding it down like a champ. The spot's super convenient, just a hop away from Jordan Station, so you can chow down right before or after checking out all the cool spots nearby. Plus, it’s smack in the middle of Parkes Street, aka food paradise, where you’ll find other legends like Australia Dairy Company and Mak An Kee Noodle. You’ll definitely see a line; that’s just part of the vibe! But don’t sweat it, the food is next level, and you won’t break the bank. Seriously, you’ve gotta try it!

Went here, saw a queue, I thought it was here (super long), turns out there are 2 queues, one is the Australian Milk restaurant (longer queue). Both of the queue are fast and we’re on the wrong queue at first. When we move, they’re fast, we got in a few minutes later. It was around 1PM Got to share the table with strangers, well that’s fine. We tried the shrimp noodle, and also the chinese broccoli with extra sauce. The noodle have a soft flavor, more to sweet taste, the noodle was a little bit chewy but good. And the shrimp are big and crispy (if yiu like sweet you can go here, if you like rich flavor go to Mak’s Noodle nearby). Chinese broccoli? Tasted so good. It was super soft, really-really soft and easy to bite. The dishes already have sauces, but with extra sauce it tasted richer. Service is like isual restaurant in Hong Kong, some people might not like it and some might not care about it

Loved it! Typical Hong Kong style where you are expected to share a table with foreigners. Noodles where excellent and beef also. Shrimp wonton was also top. Cash only no card! Overall recommended!

An authentic Hong Kong food experience. We stumbled upon this shop and was not even aware it was Michelin awarded until we have ordered. The wonton was big and juicy and had at least 2 fresh prawns in it . We were not accustomed to the dry wonton version without sauce . The accompanying soup that came with it helped with the flavour of the egg noodles . I ordered shrimp roe noodle which was a good with the individual wonton soup . All of us loved the flavour and the freshness of the wonton. We will definitely make this a stop when we come to Hong Kong next !

I’ve come here twice now: Shanghai pan fried buns were meh, steam dumplings were ok, only the xlb was good - thin skin & decent flavour. Service was pretty rude lol, even for a local place

Multi-year Michelin rated wonton noodle soup. It's a no nonsense quick serve restaurant that gets you in and want within 10-20 minutes. They will seat you wherever there's an open space so you will sit with strangers. Super crowded so definitely would pass fire safety regulations in America, but that's how it is here. Food was reasonably priced and tastes very fresh. About $35 USD for 4 bowls wonton noodle soup, one plate of braised pig feet noodles, and Chinese broccoli with oyster sauce. Despite the craziness, our server was relatively patient and friendly to us. Basically meaning we didn't get yelled at even though we were acting like tourists.

Mak Man Kee Noodle Shop is a very popular noodle shop, a bit bigger than some of the smallest holes in the wall. Vibe is proper hole in the wall, and they get busy. Portions are typical Hong Kong sized, service is quick, and the noodles are all very good. That said, having hear enough about this place, while I found it good, I didn't find it particularly outstanding. They have lots of competitors (this is Hong Kong after all!) many of whom are as good.

After hearing about this cheap Michelin eats, I was standing 1st in line before the establishment even opened. We were all seated in order in a small store that had about 8 tables. However, I found out that most tables were shared by many parties put together. After being seated, our table was the last the order. I don't know how but we were... We ordered some shrimp wonton noodle soups and I was so surprise to see such a small bowl. Surprisingly it was filling! The soup didn't pack a punch but had great flavors. The wontons were very flavorful and delicious. Overall, the food might have been 5 stars, but the service was definitely not... I didn't have much expectations on the service so based on the food, I give it a solid 4 stars. I would definitely recommend trying their wontons!

Hole in a wall restaurant. Michelin restaurant. Expected to share a table with a stranger. They are quick in service, once you sit, they expect you to know what you want, but of course there's a menu outside to look at while you wait in line. We waited for about 20-30mins which isn't bad since the restaurant is small. Highly recommend the giant wontons!!! It's bursting with favors. The vegetables is steam vegetables which is great. It balances out the others. The beef tendon with noodles was ok, not my first choice, but the wonton is a must try!!!

This was my first meal in Hong Kong! I arrived around 6 PM on a weekday. They're a small shop and popular, but thankfully, it wasn't busy and we were immediately seated. I ordered the Wonton Noodles and it came with a decent amount of noodles and big wontons. This was a delicious comfort meal and easily filled me up. The price is cheap as well, so if you're looking for an enjoyable and cheap meal, this is definitely a great spot.

Super yummy wonton noodles, did not disappoint. The servings are small so you can order more or try different things. I opted for/prefer the wide noodles. The wontons were big and juicy. Service was standard average what you would expect in HK, no surprises there. FYI they will double up tables, e.g. put two separate couples at the same 4-seater table. I came to realize this is common in HK.

I thought I knew wonton noodle soup after trying it in countless cities across the U.S., but in Hong Kong, it's simply on another level. And this spot is no exception. The star of the show is the noodles.....cooked to a nearly indescribable texture. They're al dente in the truest sense, yet so firm and fresh they offer a meaty, satisfying bite without even a hint of starchy crunch. To preserve their integrity that might otherwise be compromised by sitting in the hot broth, the noodles are served on top of the wontons, with most of them perched above the soup base, an intentional detail that makes a big difference. The wontons themselves are just as impressive. The wrappers have a perfect, delicate texture, while the shrimp filling is plump, fresh, and full of flavor. Even if the broth had been forgettable, the dish would've still been a win, but it isn't. The broth is light yet full of depth, with just enough fat and marrow to give it a silky, lip-coating richness that ties everything together. The menu is short and focused. Inside, every square inch of space is maximized for seating, which means you'll likely find yourself twisting and contorting like an Olympic gymnast to get in and out of your seat--but honestly, that's part of the charm. Service is brisk, and once you're done, be ready to spring up so the next hungry guests can take your place.

Probably some of the best wontons I've tried. I came here alone and ordered wontons in soup, steamed veggies, and pig feet. Portions were decently sized and I had leftovers. The wontons themselves were stuffed with pork and shrimp and so juicy and flavorful. It paired great with the vinegar they have on the table. The pig trotters were so soft and probably braised for a long time with different Asian spices like star anise and tangerine peel. It tasted like home cooking which I loved. It's cash only here so come prepared! There's also a line but it moves fast so worth the wait.

Small well know wonton soup place. Very good shrimp only wonton, add the noodles, all are excellent. Expect to wait at time. One of the must eat place in Kowloon. Next to Mike dessert place.

One of the main Mark's wonton noodles shop!! Only one on this brand "Mak Men" !! Classic wontons noodles, they are serving a bigger portion than other Mak's noodles... vegetables Choy sum serving oyster oil on the side!! Pig feets were marinated so good tasty n delicious, just a little chewy, some people like that, I would like more tenderness!! Serving with Zero coke n coke were the best choice!!! Full but good enough!!

The place lived up to the hype! The small bowls of won ton noodles are perfect, especially so you can order sides of veggies and supplemental dumplings. Won tons here veer towards the traditional, just big plump shrimp nestled into some pork, so they aren't the orbs that you might see elsewhere. The dumplings are the fatties though, and well worth getting. The Chinese menu is a beauty, and I'd buy a framed version as a souvenir if I could! Definitely get the pig's feet if you're intrigued, it's a big portion (we got four big pieces, and two toe chunks). The fermented red tofu funk really highlights the tendon bits, and there's a pleasant gooeyness that covers your fingers, your face, really you're not escaping this until you shower later. So good, will be back!

This place is a pretty famous little noodle shop.  It won a Michelin star back in 2017, and every year since, it has been on Michelin's Bib Gourmand list.  We came in to try their signature pig knuckles with noodle soup.  It goes for 47 HKD or $6.06.  It was good for the price point for sure but I was a little disappointed there wasn't just a little more meat with the big pig knuckles as it was virtually all tender skin and bone.  The noodles were fresh and fine, and the products came out pretty quickly.  It's a small space, so be prepared to share a table if necessary.  Also, and this is typical of all of the lower priced Hong Kong eateries, there are no napkins provided (paper products are apparently relatively expensive in Asia), and your fingers will get oily and sticky handling the pig knuckles.  So bring napkins or wet wipes wherever you go.  I'll go with 4 stars, and the visit made for an interesting outing.

Amazing place deserves Michelin mention their existence. It's a very small place seat about 30 max. Here are the take 1. Noodle are moistly crunchy 2. Wontons stuffing are bouncy shrimp and pork 3. Soup base is traditional dry fish broth. Well worth the visit to experience the best wontons noodles soup

It is a very small place and the line was long but the wonton noodles were exceptional for a Michelin star restaurant!

Don't let the small bowl fool you. They pack it with a a good amount of egg noodles that were bouncy and chewy. Dumplings were filled with juicy pork and shrimp. Side of veggies had a great crunch and delicious dipping sauce. The line went by quick. Friendly staff. Small mom and pop shop with only one person in charge of the noodle and soup bar. Quick and efficient!

I think I am used to the sizes here in the states, but the bowl of wonton noodles was soooo tiny, I mean like small rice bowl sized tiny for comparison. The place is also pretty small as well and fast paced. We ordered a two person set which came with Chinese broccoli/oyster sauce, their classic shrimp wonton noodle soup, and another soup with I believe pork and mushroom wontons. The shrimp wonton noodle soup tasted pretty good. The wontons were seasoned well and stuffed well. The noodle texture was more on the chewy side of egg noodles. The soup was flavorful and good. I just wish it was a bigger portion. I was definitely still hungry after eating here. It probably is good I am not over stuffing myself, but I just wish I had a little bit more. Prices here were very affordable for lunch.

Such a simple dish yet they make it so good! The egg noodles served here (and in Hong Kong in general) are different from the kind you can get in the US. They're more stringy and chewy. Feels more crisp than the soft mushy ones you sometimes get in the states. Mak Man Kee serves all varieties of noodle dishes with the noodle being the constant in most items. We got the wonton noodles (must get) and a fish roe oyster sauce tossed noodle. Both were very tasty and texture was perfect. I can still remember the feeling of their noodles in my mouth. The man who sat us was very nice and courteous, a nice surprise compared to most "local" places in the city. I loved it!!

Bigger wontons compared to maks noodles but I like the soup at maks much better, sui gow were huge with average taste, pigs feet and chives flower was excellent, clean place and friendly staff

Your typical super small, and busy Hong Kong noodle shop--but 100% worth it!! This wonton noodle shop is small and crowded but I honestly think it adds to the experience! The noodle bowls are small and quite pricey, but absolutely worth. The egg noodles are perfectly chewy and the soup is full of flavor, and the wontons are small but the meat filling is just wonderful. If you're in HK and you love noodles--this is the place for you!

A real hole in the wall, Mak Man Kee is a small unassuming noodle shop with a pretty simple menu. You come for the egg noodles and shrimp wontons, eat your fill and leave. But for all the great food in the area, this Michelin guide recommended shop (2019) came across as just alright. An enjoyable light (and pretty cheap) meal that doesn't shine in particular. It's not a bad place to stop at, but it's certainly not a must visit, but it was certainly a nice filler for a late flight into Hong Kong.

My parents used to take me here when I was younger, and while there is some change in terms of the decor, the quality is still the same. If you're a fan of wonton noodle soup (or noodles in general), this is one of the places you have to go to during your stay here. Overall, the wonton noodle soup is still excellent here and I think of many that would be on-par with this restaurant. The noodles are cooked perfectly, with the right taste and texture. The clear broth has a nice seafood flavor to it. The wontons here shine the brightest, as they are generously-sized for HK, while having excellent quality at the same time. The shrimp isn't cooked to crap and there's enough pork to bind the wonton filling together. The wonton skin is thin and delicate, with a slippery texture to it. The advantage of MMK over Mak's, in terms of wonton noodle soup, is the wonton. Mak's has a slight advantage with the broth. The portion here is similar to Mak's in that it's 1/2 the size as an average portion you'd see in the States. MMK is chaotic and the wait here is generally longer, since it's the only location. I had to share a table with a couple middle-aged locals but it was fine. Service is a bit brusque but not close to the Australia Dairy Company level of brusque. It's not as clean here as Mak's. And as you can probably anticipate: cash only.

my current wonton noodle shop of choice in hk. the noodles themselves i'm not a massive fan of actually because they're almost too springy to the point of being rubbery, but the broth and the wontons make up for it. i see the complaints about small serving sizes which i understand, but i see them as being more of a snack and not something to fill you up with on their own.

Came here on a holiday weekend and found a small line out the door. It moved quickly and flying solo, I was able to get a seat quickly. I found myself in a small booth with three other ladies and we were tight, but it worked. I ordered wonton noodles and Chinese broccoli. The wonton noodles come out first. I took a bite of the noodled and was underwhelmed--bit tougher than expected. After moving them around in the broth, I took another bite and it was much better. The shrimp dumplings made it all worthwhile. Amazing! Five dumplings were in the small bowl (34 HKD). The Chinese broccoli came as I was into the noodles. They were okay. The stems were thicker, so it was a bit more cumbersome to eat. Needed some veggies and they worked. Definitely a good spot to try! So many fun options on the menu. Note this is a cash only spot.

Our HK friends brought us here during our 17hr layover. This was dinner spot #1 as the portions were pretty small compared to the ginormous bowls we get in the US. We ordered the wonton noodle soup and it basically came out in a typical rice bowl. It LOOKED pretty small but actually had a decent amount of egg noodles in it and 4 shrimp wontons. The broth is just enough so that you're not being wasteful. I love the egg noodles in HK because they're so bouncy! The shrimp wontons were also very good. I enjoyed this meal a lot since! It's cheap, simple, and hits the spot! After we were done, we went to dinner spot #2 next door for Australian Milk Company

Pro tip: - Love Prawn Noodles? Then you should visit, otherwise skip this place. I originally came across this restaurant on the Michelin Guide as a recommendation for places to eat. So of course my expectations were sky high. Unfortunately, this place did not live up to the hype. I ordered their most popular item, Prawn Wanton noodle soup. The dish arrived smaller than anticipated and the price was exorbitantly high compared to other items in the area. The food itself was as average as it gets. A small bowl with 4 prawn wantons, soup and extra skinny egg noodles.

The wonton noodle soup was okay. I've had better but their price was cheap (HK$35)and affordable because of the small portions. All their tables are communal. And since I couldn't read the menu I asked if they had other types of wonton and there is only one type.

I love wonton (egg) noodles, but I don't get the hype about Mak Man Kee. I actually prefer the the wonton mein back in New York more, but the shrimp wontons here were very fresh! I was quite surprised by the small portions, and although HK$35 isn't pricey by all means, I don't think a small bowl of noodles warrants HK$35! I think the average person would need to order at least two bowls to feel semi full. Since the eatery is pretty small, you can expect to share a table with strangers. Coincidentally, my boyfriend and I shared a booth with another couple who was from the states! Also, since there are usually people waiting to get a table, the staff rushes you to order and eat.

Out of all the wonton and beef stew noodle shops we tried THIS was THE BEST in all categories , price , flavor , noodle ... just overall BEST. Their Choi sum was great as well , tender with a yummy sauce plus oyster sauce on the side if you like . Their won tons had the right bounce and bite. The broth was simple and clean. Noodles had perfect texture. And the best was the beef stew noodle soup . The tendons were gelatiny in all the right ways . We kept coming back here after trying other shops this is the one to beat in my book

Famous won ton noodles here -- cheap and fast, but I'm not sure it's worth all the hype. For me, the best part was probably the noodle, but I feel that others have managed to copy a similar flavor, texture, and bounciness -- potentially even improving upon this recipe. There was a slightly offputting aftertaste for me on the noodles, possibly in the type of egg used to create them. The shrimp wonton were a bit larger than other places, but nothing really stood out for me in its flavor or quality of the wonton skin. The beef brisket noodle soup also contained a good portion of meat which was martnated well, but nothing particularly exciting stood out about its preparation either. Might be worth a visit to this famous noodle shop if you're in the area, but I'd look elsewhere for truly exceptional noodles.

Love the SHRIMP WONTONS soup ! So fresh and delicious ! Always eat wontons soup without egg noodle so they give more wontons ：） and order the yummy EGG NOODLE separate ! Must also BEEF BRISKET and famous for MARINATED PORC KNUCKLES !!

Despite the hot and humid weather in Hong Kong, I still enjoyed a hot bowl of wonton noodle soup from Mak Man Kee. The wontons had very meaty, juicy shrimp that were firm with a bit of 'crunch'. The egg noodles were very bouncy and had a good bite. A handful of these noodles and a few succulent wontons in the savory, yet not too salty broth makes a good meal. Depending on your appetite, one bowl may be a large snack, and two bowls a huge meal. My advice: get a bowl of wonton noodle soup and a plate of gai lan veggies for dinner here, and then a custard dessert or milk tea from Australia Dairy Company next door. Two other main dishes I tried here were the beef brisket noodle soup and the dry egg noodles with chasu. The beef brisket was very tender and fatty, and its broth was quite salty. The chasu was a bit dry, but definitely had a hint of smoky and sweet flavors. A bowl of broth was accompanied on the side of the latter dish. But in my opinion, stick to Mak Man Kee's best dish - the wonton noodle soup!

If you are in the area and love wonton noodles, this Michelin starred shop is a must! Their wontons are filled with only shrimp (two pieces each) and nothing else. Each bowl has about four wontons accompanied by a handful of egg noodles. The bowl is rather small so if you are really hungry, I'd suggest ordering two. They keep it simple here... no frills. Just good ol' classic wonton noodles. We also ordered the pigs feet, which were pretty good and tasty. The sauce was thick and had a really nice salty and sweet flavor to it. If you're not too savvy with the chopsticks, the feet can be a bit slippery, so feel free to use your hands! The steamed dumplings (don't know the name) have a shrimp, pork, and mushroom filling and are also pretty good. I'm not the biggest fan of mushrooms (flavors too strong) in my dumplings, which is a great opportunity to use a hot sauce and vinegar mixture. In my opinion, this shop certainly belongs on the must eat list of places in Hong Kong. Agreeable prices, good tasting food, fast service, and opens late. All great signs, especially for a Michelin starred spot!

My mom brings me here when I was a child over fifty years ago. It is as good as I remember it, it definitely withstand the test of time. The noodles Al Dente, wontons packed with shrimps in broth. Delicious! Also had my favorite of steam fresh chives, really good! But it's a hole in the wall, we had to share a small table with two others, it's a quick snacks kind of meal, so it didn't bother us.

Been wanting to come here for AGES. Tons of people and tons of blogs would always recommend for you to eat here or Mak's when you're in Hong Kong! I finally got to try this place out during my trip to Hong Kong! My friend and I got a bowl of their wanton noodles while my boyfriend got a bowl of their dumpling with noodles. I already knew that everything was going to come in small bowls so we were already prepared. This meal was our snack. Cause we hail from America, where every dish is about 3x the portion HAHA! Their wantons are a really good size and it was just filled with shrimp/prawns! Wantons in Hong Kong are definitely different than the ones in America. America's wantons have pork in it while this has NO pork. But of course, the winner of the dish has got to be their noodles. I'm a sucker for noodles and wanton noodles are one of my favorites. It's got a good bite, great taste when chili oil is added in, and it just provides that comforting feeling when I eat it. Décor is simple: everything is white. Everything is decently clean. They also have an English menu if you can't read Chinese. You just have to ask for it. The servers are very quick so be prepared. They'll ask you what you want as soon as you sit down. I haven't tried other places in Hong Kong so I can't exactly compare but this is definitely a place you'd want to try if you're visiting. The only thing I didn't like was that their sodas weren't cold enough ... but oh well -- it's still worth the visit.

We were in the area and saw this on Yelp, so thought we would go. There are a sea of restaurant options around this location, so know that if you seek this out and they are busy, you have other options around you. This is one of those places that you sit down, shut up, order, eat and leave. My husband speaks and reads Chinese, so not a problem for us, but menu appeared to be entirely in Chinese (no photos of food, no English). I am going to guess there is a menu that surfaces for the average white traveler who looks completely lost (I see some photos on Yelp that indicates that they are there, I just did not see). They might not be friendly about giving it to you, but it is probably there. As per standard in this part of the world at restaurants like this, customer service is not steller and most act like they are doing us a favor in feeding us. Mak Man Kee is the same when it comes to this. We had some noodles, dumpling soup and veggies. My husband says this is traditional Cantonese food. Veggies were great (the oyster sauce is the trick, but veggies were fresh), noodles were good and dumplings were so-so...it comes down to the broth. The broth in the dumpling soup could have been better. This was not so flavorful and seemed bland. The dumpling itself was OK, but this dish is all about the broth. Anyway, I am glad we went and I think we our base line expectation of having a meal and having a full belly upon departure was met, but nothing spectacular and nothing earth shattering happening at this restaurant. We went to Sai Yung Kee in Hong Kong last week (I think there is one on Kowloon side too) and they too are a traditional Cantonese diner and the dumpling soup was tastier...again, it comes down to the broth.

+ By far, these were the best shrimp dumplings that I have ever had!!! All the shrimp dumplings that I have ever eaten have had minced shrimp inside - most likely other fillers were added to stretch the shrimp usage. The shrimp dumplings at Mak Man Kee Noodle Shop, however, were filled with GIANT pieces of shrimp! So delicious! Broth was flavorful, too. 4 stars for the shrimp dumplings. - Unfortunately, I wasn't a fan of the noodles topped with sweet/sour pork. I liked the texture of the noodles, however, I was not a fan of the sauce. It had nice heat, but was much too sweet for my taste. Very small, busy, crowded, noisy/lively restaurant. Would probably be best to go with someone who speaks Cantonese.

I used to live on the next block (Pilkem St!), so I'd always hear my dad telling me how Mak Man Kee's wanton noodles are good and this and that. I'm pretty sure I came here as a kid, but I don't remember, so I made it a priority to eat here this past trip back to the motherland. I ordered a bowl of their famous wanton noodles. The bowl of noodles is not big by any means, but enough to fill you up. It came with four wanton's. The price for the wanton noodle is a bit too high for my liking ($32), but it's worth the experience. For two bowls of the noodles and one plate of greens, our total came out to be like $87 (which if you convert it into USD, it's really a good deal). Oh, and a side note: if you order a plate of greens and ask for oyster sauce, they'll charge you for that. I do recommend Mak Man Kee, BUT there are plenty of other noodle shops in HK that gives you more noodles for a cheaper price.

Michelin Guide, not star, '19 & b4... [super late post & disclosure: i alwaz write shorthand...] tired AF when we landed after 9 initial days in japan & a day of travel to hk...checked into our "hotel" nearby & wandered out in the convenient, poppin' neighborhood for a quick din...thought mom brought us into a rando spot, but turned out to be famous & she knew... T H E "F E E L S" . . . usual divey hk spot...walk past a small open station to the left where they flash-boil your noodles & stuff...then onto the room of hard 4-top booths along the walls & round tables w/ wooden stools in the center... T H E N O M S . . . i didn't think the food was so special & i was trippin' hard about the tiny portions...well, i didn't know that's the hk way...i was used to U.S.'s big bowls w/ xtra broth...not these small ones like what only rice usually went into...& WTH, only 4 wontons w/ some noodles & no veg per order!?... famous for bouncy prawn wontons, duck egg noodles, & braised pig knuckles...i don't recall them feet being too memorable...noodles were springy like how most ppl like them...i was nvr one who appreciated that...but mom was jockin' & kept saying how good it was...i could see y... everything was above average...jus need to consider at least 2 orders for the avg american person...could look at it this way: cheap anywaz & u get to try more varieties... T H E S E R V I C E . . . i forget except they came back often to kinda rush us to order... like many hk spots, don't be surprised if they seat other ppl at ur tiny AF table to share...& cash only... N U T S H E L L . . . good to try this place...esp if u like al dente pasta...

This is probably one of best prawn wonton noodle soup place that I have ever been. They only take cash and the servers do not speak any English. However, they do have an English menu. I had their beef/tendon dish, beef noodle soup, tiger prawn soup, and tiger prawn noodle soup. It's definitely worth trying and it is pretty clean. Their hot sauce is very good !

This is the best won ton noodle ever. It's our first and last stop in Hong Kong. There isn't an item on the menu we hunt enjoyed. Spoke to some fellow travelers there and they feel the exact same way. We have visited over 6 times across 2 trips. Don't be confused by the noodle place a couple of doors up with a similar name. Just remember it's the one next door to the Australian Dairy Company

Amazing egg noodle. I ordered vegetables and wonton noodles. These food are awesome. They came out fast. Oyster sauce is $1 more on top of the vegetable. Orders are small. For someone coming from America, I can solo 3 bowls myself. Prepare to bring yourself water and napkins. Restaurants in the area name similar to this restaurant. Be sure to click on the "outside" option under photo before going in. You may end up in the wrong restaurant.

I read several great reviews on this place, so ultimately I had to try it. Typically I avoid hole in the wall type of eateries when traveling Internationally but decided this was a must. We had the shrimp wonton noodle soup....the soup was very tasty, and had just enough noodles and wontons. They automatically give you tea but I didn't drink it, just wanted the noodles. The portions was perfect for me but if you're super hungry, you won't be full. My advice is to have it as a pre dinner meal or snack because it won't hold you for the entire night. I should also mention that I have an MSG intolerance, but I wanted it anyway. I did end up with a slight headache after but it was worth it.

I honestly regret not coming here the last time I was back in Hong Kong. This place really hit me right in the childhood feels when I came here for the first time. I don't know how something as simple as wonton noodles taste so incredibly amazing! The wonton skins were thin (unlike the ones in America), and there was a lot of filling and was super tasty. On top of that, the noodles weren't soggy, but they were really elastic and bouncy. Definitely a must get when you come here!

The shrimp wonton noodle soup is incredible. Unlike so many of the other noodle soups that I've had, which always leaves a funny chemical after taste from using too much alkaline, the noodles here are perfectly al dente with just a tiny trace of the alkaline after taste, which is good enough for me. The shrimp wontons are juicy and super satisfying. We also ordered Chinese broccoli with oyster sauce. Although the oyster sauce is an additional dollar, I would recommend getting it. Compared to the traditional oyster sauce, there is an additional kick that brings out the sweetness of the vegetable. Definitely worth the visit!

My in-laws has been coming here for decades and I finally here to see what the hype is all about. This place is all business, the decor to me feels like I was in a factory and the food is pretty straight-up as you get the noodle, you leave and someone else will sit down and do the same. There is no time for you to sit there after the meal to spark up any conversations. I ordered a variety of noodles from thin flat noodle to traditional wonton noodles. Keep in mind, these bowls of noodle are small so I was able to eat more than one bowl of anything. The noodles / broth was mediocre, what I did enjoy was the pig's feet stew - All I can say is, I should have started with this selection in the beginning rather than the end.

Super delicious wonton noodle soup in a hole in the wall! Coming from SF Bay Area, I don't have a full appreciation of what ambiance and personal space should look like in Hong Kong, but it reminded me of a typical Chinatown fast food joint. All the specials in the wall were in Chinese so we asked for an English menu which they were kind enough to provide. For dinner, I had the wonton noodle soup and side of gai-lan (veggie) with oyster sauce. The noodles were perfectly cooked with the texture of rubber bands. The wontons were some of the best I've had: loaded with pork, fungus, and shrimp. Even the soup was tasty and perfectly seasoned. I had one bowl to myself but I had just had a slice of Lady M cake so the portion sizes are on the smaller size. The gai-lan was fresh and accompanied the noodles well. The oyster sauce is enough for two plates of gai-lan. Service was efficient and the waitresses bustle around in a flurry in typical HK fashion, but the elderly gentleman carrying the soup noodles out told customers to "siu sum, ho heet" (be careful, its hot) - so heartwarming! At about HK$40 per person its a definite steal! A little out of the way, but would return again if I was anywhere in the Jordan area.

Overall, CP is soso... I have ordered a bowl of scrimp wonton soup, and beef stew dry noodle which cost me HK$84 in total. I could find much most cheaper places which offer about similar quality. Beef stew is nice and tasty, but their egg noodle is soso for me.

This is Mak Man Kee and NOT Mak's Noodles. It was a bit confusing because it was literally next to each other. I have eaten a lot of wonton noodle in my life. But this one by far is the best. The wontons are huge! I loved their wontons so I ordered specially the wonton soup with no noodles. Better deal than the wonton noodle soup that comes with only 4 wontons. Let me tell you why it's the best wonton I've had. The wonton wrapper is not too thick and the contents inside the wonton itself which is pork and shrimp were very fresh. Most places will use frozen shrimps but this place you can taste the fresh crunchy shrimp and is seasoned just right. If you can handle spicy, you can dip it in a little bit of chili oil and you're in heaven. FYI we had to share a table with someone else. This is common practice in Hong Kong because space is scarce. I've gone to Hong Kong many times so thought I should point this out to all the tourists.

The signature wonton noodle is the best. Everything including the wonton with prawns, noodles, and even soup, was perfect. Soup tasty but not too hot. Noodle is not overcooked. Wonton has the right skin texture. So 5 stars there. And don't forget to order that Schweppes Cream Soda in glass bottle. The 4-star rating is more for things expected, but hard to compete with what I enjoy here in Vancouver: - Size: For a similar price, the portion is much bigger in Vancouver. - Seats: Obviously, HK's real estate is at a premium. You'll be tight, often sharing an already small table - Service: It's no nonsense service. Place your order, eat, get out. This place is iconic and you must seek it out if visiting the area.
