The Chairman Restaurant

one of the most difficult place to book a table and I'm glad we finally had a chance to try it. If you are able to get a table via their homepage online, then you will receive an email a few days before your revervation day to pre order the food. The taste was good, bbq pork + crab + roast chicken were good choices. Service was attentive and price was very reasonable. no wonder the reservation was so difficult. Highly recommend.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The Chairman is hands down one of the toughest reservations to secure in Hong Kong—and for good reason. Every dish is meticulously crafted, making it well worth the effort to book. Some of my favorites from the meal were simply outstanding, showcasing bold yet balanced flavors that highlight the best of Cantonese cuisine. The quality of ingredients shines through, and the execution is flawless. Beyond the food, the service is impeccable. The staff are not only attentive but also incredibly experienced, handling the dining room with precision and grace. Every detail is thoughtfully managed. For example, they prepared wet wipes that were already opened during our crab dish. They also offered to crack the claws for me when they saw I was struggling a little! If you have the chance to dine here, don’t hesitate—The Chairman absolutely lives up to the hype!

Fantastic evening at the Chairman. Yes it is very hard to get a reservation, but it was a wonderful meal with the family. Favorites for this menu were the smoked goose, char siu, and mud crab. Great flavours, textures, and technique. Can't wait to go back again. Thank you Chairman team for a lovely experience.

I have been to the chairman a few times at the old location and before all the rating . The food is still and service excellent but it was too small and crowded at the current location especially will there are no room to isolate the very loud dining parties ! Still it is one of the best Chinese cuisine in Hong Kong worth trying it at least once ! I prefer the atmosphere at the old location .

???????????????????????? ???????? ???????????? ???????????????????????????????? === Taste: 8.5 / 10 Service: 7 / 10 Ambiance: 7 / 10 Tempo: 7 / 10 === One of the best elevated local restaurants in town! There are plenty of fancy Cantonese spots around, but few get it right like Chairman does. I absolutely love their cha siu rice — it’s delish. My only issue? The portion is way too small. I could definitely use more! === 3rd Floor, The Wellington, 198 Wellington St, Central . . . #FeedMrChow_HK #HongKongFood #HongKongEats #Asia50Best #TheChairman

Finally! I got to try this No. 5 top Asian restaurant with 1 Michelin star, The Chairman. It was indeed an impressive culinary experience, showcasing skill, creativity, and excellent service. I loved the smoked goose the most; it was crispy on the outside and very tender on the inside, with a wonderful smoky flavor! The pork bun with preserved vegetables was juicy and rich in flavor, and the steamed crab with wine was well executed. However, the clay pot rice and vegetable dishes were just average, though. To be honest, I had higher expectations for this place for two reasons: 1. It’s the hardest reservation to secure in town, and 2. Some foodies claim it’s the best restaurant in Hong Kong. I believe that if customers were informed about the stories behind the dishes—such as the source of the ingredients, the inspiration, and the uniqueness of the cooking/preparation—they would appreciate the chef’s efforts even more, enhancing the overall experience. I feel that something is missing and could be improved. Just my two cents! I did enjoy the meal very much.

One of the most difficult restaurant to book in town! But I have to say the food was great and exceptional! Very impressive service, flawless. We studied the menu in advance and picked some very popular dishes to be included in our set. The result turned to be very satisfying. Personally I love the crispy duck meat puff, the sweet n sour pork tail, the signature braised crab, the bbq lamb. The price is very reasonable as of the quality of the food and service. The only thing is the difficulty of booking. Hope they have a better booking system in the future. So that more real customers can enjoy their food.

Extremely hard to find a reservation but worth the pursuit. The menu can be customized per reservation and there are some dishes (the ones usually you see recommended here) that are a must have (eg. Squid, duck, crab). The service is efficient and the meal, despite long, is extremely light and fulfilling. Kudos to the possibility of doing take away of certain dishes that are not consumed during the meal.
