Joël Robuchon
Hong Kong
Kort fortalt
Anmeldelser
The renovated dining room at Le Jardin de Joël Robuchon feels more intimate and elegant without being overly extravagant. The staff are exceptionally friendly and attentive. They take pride in sharing details about the dishes and the restaurant, which really elevated the overall experience. Went for the 3-course lunch ($980) with the additional signature caviar dish (+$920). Every dish was beautifully plated and delivered flavours with genuine sophistication and finesse. A meal that reminded you why Robuchon remains in a class of its own. The best Michelin dining experience I have had in Hong Kong recently and worth every single penny. I have no doubt they will regain their 3 stars in no time. Can't wait to be back!
First visit after renovation. I booked the bar table by mistake which is not bad. I like the a la cart tasting portion which I like. Signature bread basket as usual. But not my preference because I like bread being served time to time when they are still warm and crispy. No dessert trolley when U are sitting at the bar table which I'm quite disappointed. Good thing is not like other fine restaurants they have many choices to choose.
Lovely Robuchon location in the Elements mall in Hong Kong. Subway stop is Kowloon Station. We went for afternoon tea and ended up ordering a crepe and a roll up; check out the photos, very artful. And tasty! Worthy of the Robuchon name, my wife and I liked it a lot. We had been before for desserts, and now I can say that the normal menu is equally delicious! Take a date, that’s my recommendation ❤️
My family and I were recently in the Vegas restaurant in December and were excited to give the HKG a try. Unfortunately, our visit in HKG was less than stellar due to our main waiter having a chronic cough. We witnessed spittle fall unto our desserts, our silverware was dirty, 8 courses took 4hrs to complete, they did not explain two of the dishes served, mixed my sparkling water with still and didn’t correct. Positives: the wine pairing was impressive. At over 3kUSD the little things matter.
Dining at L’Atelier de Joël Robuchon in Hong Kong is always a memorable experience, and this visit was no different in terms of food quality and presentation. Every dish was beautifully arranged with great attention to detail, and the flavours were refined, balanced, and inventive — exactly what you would expect from a restaurant of this calibre. From the amuse-bouche to dessert, each course showcased precision and artistry, delivering a genuine culinary experience. However, our seating arrangement had a minor downside. We were seated at the far end of the counter, which was quite quiet and somewhat separated from the main buzz of the dining area. Part of the appeal of sitting at the counter in Robuchon is being able to watch the chefs at work and enjoy the lively interaction between the kitchen and guests. Unfortunately, from our position, we couldn’t see much of what was happening behind the counter, which diminished a bit of that signature "L’Atelier" experience. One pleasant surprise was the wine prices. The selection is broad, and the prices are notably reasonable — perhaps the most affordable among fine dining restaurants in Hong Kong. It’s uncommon to find such a thoughtful and fairly priced wine list at this level of restaurant, which definitely enhances the overall value and enjoyment of the meal. The service was generally fine and efficient, though there is room for improvement in terms of warmth and attentiveness. The staff were polite and professional, but at times, the interaction felt slightly formal and distant. A touch more friendliness and engagement would have made the experience even more memorable and personal. Overall, L’Atelier de Joël Robuchon continues to deliver on its promise of exceptional cuisine and elegant dining. The food was exquisite, the wine list impressive, and the atmosphere refined — though I would recommend requesting a more central seat at the counter for a fuller experience. Despite a few minor service and seating issues, it remains one of the top dining destinations in Hong Kong for those who appreciate fine French gastronomy.
