I discovered this place a while ago with some family and friends. We thought we try a different Chinese restaurant from the ones we go up central London. At first impression, the place from the outside was not the best looking and the location was slightly out of the way from tubes and trains but not buses luckly.

Once inside you notice how huge it is and can accommodate different numbers of crowds of people.

Being from an oriental background, you can appericate how good the main menu dishes and dim sum were. Me and my friends of mixed orgins are generally hard to please but it was hard to complain when stuffing yourself with all the large selection of nice food on offer.

Hong Kong city generally has a nice atmosphere because it divdes up the buffet section from the dim sum and main menu customers. This creates a very nice atmosphere and distinguishes it from a fast food outlet.

The staff are generally friendly and try to be accommodating wherever possible. The service is quite fast and the staff definitely earn their tips.

Only bad point i can think of is that you do get the occasionally rude customers that spoils the atmosphere but i can live with that.

Five years on, me and my friends still continue to go there time after time enjoying the menu. We dont even bother going up central London for dim sum no more because the food isnt as good or because the old places up central London we use to go has shut down.

Highly recommend this place to anyone with culture that values, good atmosphere, good service, good quality food at a very reasonable price.

Yes I do love Hong Kong City aswell! They changed it a bit now as there's no buffet section but the new Karaoke rooms are always fun!
