Hoi Tin

They are well known for their bakery, especially the egg tarts, which are perfectly flaky with a rich, smooth custard filling. By around 2:00 PM, the pastry selection was quite limited, which was a bit disappointing. After picking up some pastries, I stayed for dim sum. It had been a long time since I last had dim sum here, but everything was just fine. Overall, it is worth visiting for the bakery, but arriving earlier will give you a much better selection.

Was scrolling through older photos and realized that I had not left a review for this place. Was here for lunch on August 29, 2025 with two other people. This review pertains to the restaurant and not the bakery. Mediocre dim sum overall. Ordered a variety of dishes, one of which was the spare ribs with black beans. The meat smelled bad. We tasted it and it had definitely gone bad. They had served spoiled meat. We sent it back. The server came back saying, "it's supposed to be like that." Wow. The nerve they had to outright lie, but I guess they were trying to cover their mistake. About 30 min later, saw another group sitting in the corner also send back the spare ribs dish. The two of us that each tried a piece of the dish had digestive issues later in the day as a result. The rest of the dishes were only just ok. Passable, but not good. Aside from the incident, the service was good. Prices are reasonable.

After a long journey in Europe, this is the very first Chinese meal we’re looking for. The foods were very good but we had to wait for around 10 minutes to seating. The small entrance door is chaos as there are 2 lines for the restaurant and the takeaway bakery. Once we sit in the restaurant area, we can’t order the bakery to eat at our table only takeaway.

Tried Hoi Tai for Guangdong-style dim sum, overall good. It’s within walking distance of Central Station, super convenient. We walked in as two people with no waiting time at all, even though the place was quite busy (better to make a reservation to secure your seats). Service was fast and efficient, and the staff were very attentive, clearing empty plates quickly, which I really appreciated. Food-wise: Steamed rice noodle roll with beef tasted good, and the beef was very tender, but the rice roll skin was quite thick (better for people who love soft rice noodle texture). Steamed honey BBQ pork bun (char siu bun) was nice, the filling was shredded and sweet, more like a braised pork flavor rather than classic BBQ-style cha siu. The bun skin itself was very fluffy. Steamed beef offal tasted clean with no gamey smell, but could be more flavorful; the radish was almost tasteless. The mix included tripe, beef stomach, and tendon. Steamed beef tripe (ginger & scallion) had a slight beefy smell. Steamed scallop and shrimp dumplings had a tiny bit of seafood smell as well. Salted egg yolk custard buns (lava buns) had great flowing filling. Steamed chicken feet were soft, sticky, and very well seasoned, even the peanuts were flavorful. packing fee is 0.5 euro per box. The pastry counter at the entrance worth a visit (you have to go there and make the order)! The wife cake is a must-order, and the fish floss cake is super soft and highly recommended. Sadly, the egg tarts were sold out, so I didn’t get to try them. Will probably come back again.

I went there around 5pm because I got a train at 6:30 so no reservation at that time, but the waiter was nice to give me a table. However the foods are just basic…. The siumai are good , the chicken feet basic , the xiaolongbao basic as well and there is the black beans steamed porc ribs that came in the end but it was not good…. I don’t recommend it , but for the dumplings soup is okay for the price If you expect a 10/10 , it’s just a 6.8/10 体验可以，但不太值得

Had delicious lunch here. We ordered a wide range of dishes, probably a bit too much, but all was good.

The egg yolk bun here is immaculate! Really tasty with the runny egg yolk inside. The pork bun is warming and good. The sausage and Hong Kong muffin are fine, not really impressive. Also even though there is a line when I came here but the line moved quite quick.

Was my favorite Chinese bakery in the neighborhood for years , and with time it became one of my favorite restaurants too ! Im glad it’s next to my home , nice food with fair prices and friendly service !!i have some fotos from my first few visits and some from the new !! I love this place
