Overrated and over-priced. We have pre-ordered our menu for 12 persons. The suckling pig was not crispy. 大良野雞卷was overly marinated with rose wine and all pieces are of different sizes. The Pomelo skin was over cooked and more salty than the baked salted chicken. The fried egg white with crab meat was also heavily salted. So salty that I thought the crab was cooked in sea water. Yet the vegetables with crab meat could only taste the ginger taste. Can tell the chef has used lots of ginger and thus the ginger taste covered the crab meat. The bird nest soup was worst. So salty and, i think, it's heavily seasoned with MSG. My tongue was numbed till next day and I have to drink a coke to balance out. (If you were sensitive in MSG like me then you will understand). On the whole, the appetizers can pass but they failed almost all the mains. The desserts are ok but on the sweet side. For service, I was quite shocked to be told that they ran out of sesame rolls, which was pre set in our menu, that they had to give us some walnut biscuits. First, how can it be sold out as our menu was set? Second, they offered 6 sesame rolls and 6 walnuts biscuits. Seriously, why couldn't they offer us 12 pieces of walnuts biscuits? As not everyone noticed we only got 6 biscuits, they just crapped one piece of both dishes. At the end, 5 of us needed to share the last biscuits. The whole bill was hkd25000. For this price, i would expect a better quality of food and higher standard of service. For that service and quality of food, definitely overrated and...

A reference to ownership, the seventh son of Fook Lam Moon’s founder, it is under the direction of Chef Chui Wai Kwan that Seventh Son’s menu focuses entirely on iconic Cantonese dishes ranging from simple Stir-Fry Noodles beneath Japanese Wagyu or carefully fried Chicken with shattering skin overlying juicy flesh.
Predictably pricey for Banquet-style cuisine and a privileged view of the city, Superior Shark Fin stir-fried with Hairy Crab and Osmanthus over $2100HKD for two, those seeking something more budget friendly will be happy with Lotus Leaf Rice upgraded by King Crab and Scallops or sour Sausage with perfectly...
Read moreBeautiful evening at Seventh Son Restaurant, a very nice place for a group gathering in Tsim Sha Tsui.
There is a wide variety to choose from, offering appetizers, poultry, fresh seafood, and rice/noodle options. You can opt for their tasting menu for small group couples. We tried so many different dishes that we lost track of them all. All the food arrived quickly, and the highlight of the meal was Seventh Son's famous crispy chicken, known for its crispy and non-greasy skin, as well as tender and juicy meat. Another favorite of mine was the sizzling Stewed Oysters Pot with Scallions and Ginger, which had a burst of umami flavor without being overly salty. The baked stuffed crab had a perfect crunch, revealing a creamy interior filled with fresh crab meat. Lastly, we ended with Fried Rice wrapped in Lotus Leaf!
Overall, it was a good Chinese fine dining experience...
