For our first day we wanted to get dim sum for breakfast, we were walking around and saw this Auntie giving our flyers for a dimsum place. Upon researching the place has high ratings so we said ok, and she ushered us to the place. The place is cozy and the food is excellent. Love the shrimp dumplings and the beef minced bun. Thanks to auntie we get to see this place. Will be back again soon.

Really chilled out Dim Sum. As in, you don't have five hundred grandmas shouting at each other for who pays the bill. Food is excellent. Staff are lovely. Coming back for sure.

Hay Wong is a small dim sum spot where the food is always fresh and hot. I especially loved the har gow (shrimp dumplings) — shrimps were big and skins were chewy. Unlike many other dim sum restaurants, this place attracts more locals from Hong Kong than tourists. The service is efficient, and the prices are reasonable.

We stumbled upon Hay Wong for a late-night dinner, and it did not disappoint. The atmosphere feels authentically local, with people casually enjoying their meals and old movie posters decorating the walls. Ordering is simple—just scan the QR code menu and add items to your cart. Service was fast and efficient. Now, the food: the dumplings were outstanding—juicy, generously filled with meat, perfectly steamed, and bursting with flavor. I highly, highly recommend this dim sum spot!

A place that I think serving better dim sum than traditional Chinese teahouse. We ordered a lot, and love these the most! - steamed rice roll with barbecued pork - deep fried satay beef bun - steamed beef tripe with giner and spring onion - beef siu mai & pork siu mai Not only it is great quality with fair price, able to order by phone via QR code is friendly for tourist too.

We were wandering the streets of Hong Kong and this lovely establishment was along our path. It was early lunch time so we beat their rush hour and found a table. Staff were all pleasant and took our order without fuss. The dishes came out quickly and everything was delicious. Thanks team!

A small dim sum place for a quick easy meal. Taste of dim sum is ok up to standard. The rice roll was particularly nice, generally ingredients were fresh and with good seasoning. Price was very reasonable and cheaper than a lot of big restaurants. Not a bad place for a quick taste of dim sum. The service was quick. Seating was ok and upstairs has been decorated liked a subway which is very fun way to represent Hong Kong.
