Mary NgJune 17, 2015Milanese cottolette (veal) is the best, can't leave without having this. Bombana is famous for his risotto, ruffle, pasta- everything as he picks best & fresh ingredients. 8 1/2 Macau just opened!
Kyla LamJanuary 14, 2015Pasta was tad bit too hard; the confit "taiyouren" organic egg was so good; the beef cheek melted in my mouth; impressed by the dessert. order the house red wine! Great lunch and great company
Nicole TsuiNovember 17, 2014Tried the tasting menu but the taste of dishes didn't have a wow factor.. Amazing steak sirloin though! Crispy on the outer. Cooked just right. The sauce won't takeover the fresh juicy taste of steak.
KatrinaSeptember 17, 2014One of the best Italian restaurants. 1st came when they just opened. Friendly staff. I even got a tour of their amazing kitchen. Best seafood pasta I ever had in HK. Must try, if u can get a table!
Eugenia MarettApril 14, 2015The truffle pasta is superb with a very generous serving of truffle. Sit at the bar for a more casual meal. Love their veal Milanese. They also make excellent cocktails!
Ross WSJanuary 2, 2018Pick from the restaurant's 2,000-bottle cellar. Customers can also opt for classic Martinis and Negronis, which are popular during the Milan-style aperitivo period, when Italian snacks are served too
JCMay 14, 2018Quality cooking but nothing mind-blowing. Fave was black truffle tagliolini. The truffle shavings started dissolving into the sauce, coating every al dente strand w light, but creamy blackish sauce
Sergio GalzeranoOctober 18, 201810 stars if I had the option to do so. Service and food is exceptional. The negronj is sublime. The pear tart for dessert is a must have.
Cher ChengJanuary 4, 2013Hard to book like u hv to wait at least 2-3 months in random dates. but very good food. Tired the lamb n risotto here. Best risotto here! Desserts are brilliant as i had lemon tart. Definitely come bk- Mary NgOctober 13, 2014The BEST Italian restaurant in Asia,need to try cottolette Milanese, still mouth watering after having this over & over. Pasta with white truffle is out of this world!
NungNing 🎀September 24, 2013Great Italian restaurants indeed. Must reserve tables in advance. Truffle with eggs, truffle spagetti, jamon, lemon tart, soufflé, chocolate are yummy indeed.- Mary NgAugust 23, 2013Best Italian food in Asian! Try the famous cottoletta! Take one portion to share as it is quite a good size portion and save your appetite for dessert!
Plutus ChuangDecember 21, 2014Price of night shift is decent!! Regardless of costs on white truffle :) Guess is a good place for couple ♥ We have pre-Christmas here !!!
Ricardo MalufMarch 29, 2013Fantastic atmosphere in a fine italian cuisine restaurant. Food is amazing and staff is the best. Look for Maxime, the assistant manager, such a nice chap!
Look out for their white truffle menu in the winter. Absolutely to die for. The trio chocolate desert is also a killer. Be prepared to make resv well in advance as it gets fully booked all the time.
Greg KOctober 6, 2015Ignore the fact they it is expensive, hard to book and full with flashy douchebags. Just enjoy the really good food. Not as good during lunch.
FoodieWorldMay 3, 2013The only 3-Michelin starred Italian restaurant outside of Italy, they've picked up the Readers' Choice Must-try Michelin Star Award at the 2013 Foodie Forks!- Helen LeeAugust 29, 2011Virgin Bloody Mary was the best I have ever had. Serious. Slices of black truffles over poached egg to die for. Braised cheeks excellent. Bathroom not great and atmosphere a bit stuffy...
A.J. BrahmNovember 25, 2018Three Michelin Stars. The tasting menu is full of fun dessert twists. Truffle season is in November.
SarahAugust 16, 2014Best Italian restaurant and is less pricey than hotel restaurants (probably because it's located inside a business building rather than a hotel)
@JaumePrimeroSeptember 21, 2011great spot for a business lunch, and the pastas are all made in house! Bombana amazes his customers with creative italian dishes that are unique in Hong Kong.
HongjaiMay 1, 2017Expensive but good food. Can't go wrong here. The meat dishes are my recommendations - the veal is delicious- SarahJuly 31, 2013Chef's menu = more than value for money. Great food! Creative italian dishes, yet every ingredient was carefully chosen
- Jin KlenkAugust 22, 2011Very nice service and smiley staff. Staffs are very attentive and caring. The restaurant gave out a feeling of peace and elegance. The cod was wonderful. Cheese was okay.
- Vicky HwangJanuary 4, 2011Wonderful service. Am 6 months pregnant and as soon as I sat down, the waiter arrived with a cushion for my back. Have the lemon tart with blood orange sorbet... Divine!!
Try the coffee trio and specifically the coffee tart! Amazingly good! The service is always 3*! So far, best and most creative Italian food in town.
Julia LiJanuary 10, 2015Best Italian food I have had in HK! Great pasta and the roast pigeon was amazing ❤︎
Jimena LozanoJune 11, 2019Serious restaurant but good attention! Burrata ravioli is just amazing...consider very small portions- Jin KlenkApril 20, 2012The best food in Hong Kong, seriously. Service is perfect. They even gave me a blanket before I ever tried to ask.
Harriet CheungOctober 30, 20153 girls at the front but still could not do a decent job, no smiles at all. Courses was not served together as a table. Food was decent but I've had better so really dunno where the 3 stars come from.
Christina ZauAugust 14, 2014Super generous with the truffle in their risotto. Better than the tagliolini, but pretty heavy.
- Try the Iberico Pork - Braised cheek and roast tenderloin. confit of apple and rosemary, marsala jus
Maram AlEbrahimAugust 25, 2016although most of the food plates contain alcohol, and we dont eat anything with alcohol, food was nice
Love the bone-in steak for two - always perfectly cooked - don't miss the bones!
