Reviews
Wonderful brunch l at Hawk & Aster! The soup was rich and silky, the grilled skewers were perfectly cooked and full of flavour. Lovely stylish atmosphere with friendly attentive service. Great spot for brunch dates or catching‑up with friends, highly recommend!
Had a pleasant Sunday here with my mum who is on a wheelchair. Staff arranged easily accessible table for her. Much appreciate the act. Food is good especially like the pasta. Rich in buttery taste. 5 layers cake is also a must try here. The dark bitter Sweetness ends the meal perfectly. On the other hand, it would be better if the Chinese female staff with middle length hair can improve her communication skills with diners. We overheard her reactions to the next table. Basically, she walked away silently for the three times that the diners made a request or confirmation.
The food is always good but the last time we went it took a really long time to get my husband’s salmon and they served our meals separately. It didn’t used to be like that. Also, there are only 1-2 waitstaff are there which just isn’t enough and they seemed haggard, unhappy, and tired and it was hard to get their attention. It didn’t seem like there was enough staff. Honestly, the food is good but the service isn’t. No one is ever smiling or asking if they can get you anything. No one greets you and says welcome or thank you for coming. That makes the entire atmosphere feel unwelcoming and uncomfortable. The owner would do the restaurant a favor by getting 2 happier employees to serve customers.
Nice environment! Very nice for chatting with friends! I had the Rigatoni which is good but actually eyeing my friend's steak which looks soooo good, medium rare. Gonna come back next time for that, and also the coffee.
Such a good time that my kids wanted to post the following review: 10 stars! Said my 11yo 20 stars! Goes my 7yo “It was amazing! Great music & ambience. The food was some of the best I’ve had in Hong Kong. Very high quality and delicious food. The service is excellent (our servers name is Rosana) and our meal was very fresh!”
