Ka Ho Restaurant — Restaurant in Hong Kong Island

Ka Ho is an old-school, authentic and super local Cantonese seafood restaurant. I was almost discouraged by the relatively low rating, but looking inside the restaurant at all the locals enjoying their meals here it’s clear that they are doing something right, but these are probably not the kind of folks that are leaving reviews on google.

Staff don’t speak English, so could be a bit difficult if you don’t speak some Mandarin or Cantonese, but I’m sure it’s possible to get by and they are friendly and want to help. Seafood is really fresh and delicious and reasonably priced.

DO NOT go to this restaurant!

I went there for lunch a month and a half ago (March 31, 2023). The floor was oily, food wasn't hot at all. I ordered several dim sum, one of them is a pork short ribs and rice. At the middle of my lunch, I found a curly hair in my rice. It was really disgusting.

I do have a picture as reference however I don't see an option for me to post it here.

The hygiene of this restaurant is really bad. Staff wasn't nice either.

If you like traditional dim sum, there are a lot more options...
