Yat Tung Heen - Eaton HK

We visited for a dim sum lunch as a group of 13 on February 5, and the food was phenomenal. Each dish was crafted to perfection and offered at a reasonable price, especially given the accolades this establishment has received. Unfortunately, our experience was marred by a floor manager—a tall, slender man—whose attitude fell short of what one would expect from a Michelin-star restaurant. We observed how he interacted with his colleagues, even throwing paper at them, which was disheartening. It's a shame, as the food was excellent and the other staff were friendly and welcoming. However, this floor manager did not uphold the standards of the restaurant. We hope the management team at Eaton will address this issue with the seriousness it deserves. Yat Tung Heen is a long-standing establishment, and it would be unfortunate if this floor manager's behavior continued to undermine the restaurant's esteemed reputation.

The dishes we ordered were simple but tasty, though none were particularly impressive except for the Honey-glazed Barbecue Pork and Roast Pork Belly. These two stood out with their larger portions and less fatty cuts. The other dishes were good, but nothing extraordinary. However, the dessert we had was a delightful surprise—it was very good and a perfect way to end the meal. On the positive side, the staff was very responsive and efficient, and the ambiance of the restaurant was pleasant and inviting. Overall, it was an enjoyable experience.

I arrived around 1:30 PM on a weekday without a reservation and was informed there would be an hour-long wait. Just as I was about to leave, the host suddenly mentioned, "Oh, there’s been a no-show," and seated us right away. Once inside, I noticed several empty tables and guests wrapping up their meals. By the time we finished our meal, the restaurant was nearly empty, leaving me puzzled—why was I told there wouldn’t be a table available until 2:30? As for the food, the dim sum was just as delightful as I remembered—delicate, flavorful, and made with fresh ingredients. However, the 'steamed vegetable dumplings with mushrooms' seemed under-seasoned, though the freshness of the ingredients somewhat made up for it. Aside from the odd encounter with the host, the rest of the service was attentive and smooth.

Made a reservation way in advance to celebrate my birthday during a recent trip to Hong Kong and Yat Tung Heen did not disappoint. Their menu is elegant but still homely, with some of the best soups, and roast meats I've ever had - and I've had my fair share of roast meats in my many trips to Hong Kong! Don't miss their daily soups, the roast pork is a dream. Char Siew is lovely too and the oysters deep fried in five spice batter is lush. Our highlight was the vegetables - a claypot of lettuce in Tai O prawn paste, which was simple but so delicious. Service is excellent, wait staff are friendly, attentive and very knowledgeable with the menu. Highly recommended if you want to impress anyone and/or just want a fancy night out.

Michelin Guide for many consecutive years. Every time I visit HK, I’ll stop by for lunch. Great dim sum, usually order from their ‘signature dim sum’ section on their menu and their ‘feature dim sum’ section. Atmosphere is great, spacious Make sure to book in advanced!

Very delicious dim sum. Quite pricey 3 pax with a total bill of hkd440 Able to make reservation online which is very helpful. Just go to their website and click reservation.

Great restaurant with attentive service. You know it’s fancy when your tea comes with a candlelight holder to keep it hot. There’s some dishes that were prepared slightly differently to those typical yum cha places…and surprisingly they were great. We got there at 11 and there was already a queue.
