TUBER Umberto Bombana (K11 MUSEA)

Decided to have a birthday dinner spontaneously and was surprised that they got plenty of tables available, given the restaurant only recently received its first Michelin star. For a fine-dining place, TUBER was quite laid back and conveniently located in a busy mall and was opened til late. We didn’t want a long dinner and the restaurant offered us à la carte option which was nice. We ordered King Crab, Cavatelli, Artisanal Linguine and the Peach and Vanilla Bavarese to share. I wouldn’t say the dishes were revolutionary, but each was well executed bursting with balanced flavors and culinary artistry. I was glad that dessert didn’t fall short. The Peach and Vanilla Bavarese was skillfully crafted and it was a highlight for me. Not to mention, the amuse-bouches, pre-dessert and petite fours were a delight.

I had a truly memorable evening at Tuber. The highlight for me was the red prawn 🦐 pasta 🍝 perfectly cooked, bursting with flavor, and beautifully presented. The staff were outstanding throughout the night not only were they professional and attentive, but their friendly banter and thoughtful wine 🍷 recommendations really elevated the experience. I also loved the impressive dessert trolley, which was the perfect sweet finish to a fantastic meal. As a lovely bonus 👍, the team went out of their way to help me find my way, which I really appreciated. Tuber absolutely deserves its Michelin star, and I'm already looking forward to my next visit 🥳

I’ve been coming to this restaurant since it opened and I don’t understand why it only has one Michelin star. I highly recommend coming during white truffle season they use top-quality Alba truffles and add them generously to every dish. The amuse-bouche with two tartlets topped with tuna tartare and sturgeon caviar is simply outstanding. The pasta here feels like being in Italy, perfectly al dente. I strongly recommend the homemade cavatelli and tagliolini with truffle. I can confidently recommend every single dish on the menu, pure delight. Do not miss the dessert trolley, it’s one of the highlights. One of the very best Italian fine dining experiences in Hong Kong Kowloon.

It was such a happy surprise to enjoy the exquisite aroma and flavor of the Alba white truffle on its first day of arrival at Tuber. We also enjoyed very much the dishes perfectly cooked by Chef Keith, especially the Royal Langoustines and the attentive, pleasant and professional services of Billie. Thank you for bringing us a wonderful birthday dinner 🎂

We've been to Tuber a few times, and each time they've provided us with excellent cuisine and service. My birthday was celebrated yesterday night in Tuber and it was really fantastic. The cuisine was amazing, and I can honestly state that the chef is deserving of the Michelin star award because they consistently perform a good job. As always, we receive excellent treatment from the staff, who truly know what they are doing. I'm looking forward to our next meal in Tuber.

I had a good experience in Tuber, the staff is friendly and knowledgeable. Highly recommend. For sure come again. The ambiance was inviting, making it a perfect spot to relax and enjoy a meal. Each dish was expertly prepared, showcasing the chef's attention to detail. I left feeling satisfied and eager to return for another visit. Overall, Tuber exceeded my expectations in every way.

They have 6 tables in total, on a friday night, there was just us and another table. There was only 1 menu at $1,880 + 10% per person. We did not go for wine pairing, and I can’t remember how much it was. My appertiser was the king crab topped with urchin, so heavenly. My second course was the abolone, which tasted very much like a Chinese dish, wasn’t expecting that. The flavours were ok actually, I just personally don’t like to have a Chinese dish in an Italian restaurant. My pasta dish was the star of the night. The linguine with prawn was their signature dish, and surely deserves its place. Bombana does prawn pasta like no other, and it is out of this world. My main was the deer, which was good. The unexpected thing was the pot of truffle rice, again, so good. I was so full at this point that it was really difficult to impress with an above average dessert, which wqs good, but by no means spectacular. It was certainly not cheap, but I would not say it was over priced. The value was there. For a cheaper option, we would definitely visit its sister restaurant right next to it next time.

Otto Mezzo by Umberto Bombana is one of our all time favourite restaurants in Hong Kong!…so we wanted to try his „new“ place (opened for a year plus) in K11-TST, the Tuber. The food was great, maybe a slight behind what we are used to at Otto Mezzo, but still super yummy, well presented and commendable. We went for the 5 course degustation menu and had plenty of delicious truffle shavings :p The service was ok, but not impressive, nothing wow, i have to give it an average score. But what let the Tuber down for us, was the whole setting and atmosphere. The decoration / setting feels really odd and strange, like a mix between an underground train station restaurant and sitting in a corridor between 2 shopping malls. The walls, floor, ceiling and lighting (the table offered to us first was almost completely in the dark) and the entrance (from the hotel driveway side) with passage through the middle, somehow splitting the small place to reach the more casual restaurant upstairs, all kind of odd and definitely not working for us. Maybe not that important but we also didn’t like the balloon shaped wine glasses with kind of small openings used for their wine servings. While the food was really yummy the strange ambiente in this place affected our whole dining experience not in a good way. We went on a Saturday night and besides us only one other table was booked….
