New Hong Kong — Restaurant in Douglas

The food was amazing, and the starters were a great size and well worth it — definitely very filling and a great option if you're not too hungry. I had ordered the kimchi and salted pork soup and it was amazing, it was such a lovely taste and the warmth was very comforting in the colder weather outside. I had also ordered the pork ramen, which was delicious too and the broth tasted amazing, unfortunately I couldn't finish it but the big portion size is great for if you're feeling very hungry. For my drink the Lychee lemonade was great, a strong yet sweet taste, definitely recommend. My girlfriend got the chicken curry and said it was very lovely. They got the cherry blossom gin which also tasted great.

The environment and staff are very friendly too, welcoming you in and slight conversation. A very friendly environment that makes it very comfortable to sit in — bonus, I think the interior is very beautiful. Very cosy.

Would definitely come again...

Ordered roast duck on rice. What I received was very obviously packaged roast duck that was then deep fried. If I ordered roast duck, I am expecting roasted duck. Portions were quite small with only a few Chinese cabbage leaves underneath my duck. My mother ordered Singapore noodles with prawns, chicken and char Sui pork. The char Sui pork was again pre-packaged and bought then chopped up and stir fried. It unfortunately tasted old (like it had gone off or left in the fridge for a while) and was extremely dry. All the meat in the noodles were very dry. Not much seasoning too just a mild curry flavour. The dumplings were nice enough. Fillings tasted good. Thick wrappers. Sauce was nice but a lot of it so can get salty. Walked past the kitchen to go to the toilet and saw bags of frozen crispy chicken/beef already pre battered. Expect that for a cheap takeaway but not a restaurant. Flavours were okay, and have had worse but not...

New Hong Kong is a charming restaurant, and as a fellow Hongkonger, it’s heartening to see some representation on an island where ethnic minorities, especially those from Hong Kong, are few and far between. The atmosphere felt welcoming, and I appreciated the effort to create a space that nods to our culture. That said, the menu doesn’t quite reflect authentic Hong Kong cuisine. Most dishes lean toward general Chinese fare, with several items influenced by Korean and Japanese cooking. While the food was enjoyable, it didn’t capture the distinct flavors or culinary identity of Hong Kong. On a positive note, the service was excellent - friendly, attentive, and professional. The food itself was good, even if not what I’d hoped for in terms of...
