Reviews Summary

The Legacy House is celebrated for its exquisite Cantonese cuisine, particularly its artistic dim sum and signature dishes, complemented by stunning Victoria Harbour views. While service is consistently praised for being attentive and professional, some find the food quality to be occasionally inconsistent, though many deem the overall experience well worth the price.

"Have my birthday dinner on 8/Dec, 15 of us in one private dining room with Victoria harbour view! 😍 Pre-ordered tasting menu, the dishes are in proper portion, the food was incredible ! All dishes we tried was delicious. Our server Lydia was particularly attentive and make our dinning experience memorable!

I will definitely be recommending this to my friends and family. It’s a bit expensive but it’s worth."

Aileen Lam

"We have been to this Michelin Star Chinese restaurant for a dinner earlier. That was a delightful experience! We are not living in Hong Kong, and have been long looking forward to coming back, and now we are here! This time we do A La Carte lunch. The seatings are spacious, with a superb and unblocked sea view! Can’t go wrong with their dim sum! The taro buds, Ha Gor, and Cha siu bao are firm favorites for us. The BBQ pork and crispy pork belly are so tender and juicy! The meal is finished with a mixed dessert plate which is a feast for the senses! It comes with the traditional Chinese sweets like black sesame rolls and white sugar cake, together with the mango and taro puddings. Just a satisfying chew of all delish ingredients!
Everyone was very accommodating and attentive, especially our server, Alex. We already planned to take their lunch set menu on our next visit!"

Carmen Chan

"For me, this is the best restaurant in Hong Kong. The cuisine is outstanding ! I come here every day whenever I’m in the city.
Ingredient quality is always top-notch, and the cooking is consistently precise and refined.
The restaurant has a stunning view over the harbour.
There’s an excellent tea selection.
The dim sum is a true highlight, especially the mantis shrimp.
Everything on the menu is executed to perfection you can confidently order anything.
Highly recommended!!!"
