鸿轩点心楼 • Hong Xuan Dim Sum — Restaurant in Malacca

Read mixed reviews about this place.

Decided to give this place a try as cannot tahan the breakfast buffet which was included in the hotel rates at The Shore.

Restaurant is almost full and patronised by locals, some whom are quite elderly. This is a sign that the restaurant has been around for a long time and the food is of a certain quality and standard.

We tried almost 10 different dishes and all tasted good. We are intrigued by the Chwee kueh which is very pleasant but different from those in Singapore.

The prawn siew mai is garnished with a prawn on top and filled with more prawns within - you really can taste the prawns.

The rest of the dim sum are really 古早味 and may not taste like those in fine dining restaurants. But they really taste great and I do reminisce about the old dim sum stalls that we used to have in Singapore.

Go give it a try and let me know...

Updated Review 2025: NOT RECOMMENDED! 👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻 Getting from bad to worst - so disappointed and annoyed with my recent visit! no improvement at all after more than one year ~ dim sum served still not hot worst bao, dim sum, lo mai Kai, fried carrot cake and porridge that I’ve ever tasted!!!! pls don’t even try their 扣肉包!!!! It’s disgusting.. no meat and full of fats! Ugliest 扣肉包 that I’ve seen so far! ~ service standard dropped too ~ nothing in the menu is edible 😏 it’s below average JUST DONT WASTE YOUR CALORIES ON YUCKY FOOD! Review in year 2024: Ok … But, food wasn’t hot enough In fact, some of the dim sum was lukewarm.

Comfy vibes, very spacious and clean. Price wise - affordable and reasonable. Parking is quite easy only if you’re early and during weekends. Service : excellent, staffs were attentive...

Dissapointed visit. It took space of 2 shoplots. Very spacious, environment is neat and peaceful. No noise at all. Nobody chitchat, unlike other dimsum shop. Very little variety. Not much choices. You need to make order by looking on the menu and they serve immediately. Obviously they are pre-cooked. We tried steam and deep fried dishes. Most of them are room temperature. This is the saddest siew mai i had ever. It look like defrost then freeze back and redefrost. The only hot food serve here is HarGao. Chee cheong fan also just warm. Charsiew inside the cheong fan is so bad.

Chili sauce and sweet sauce is self service placed at the centre of the shop. Nobody will tell u that. Just look around when u sitting down.

After eat, we feel very thirsty.. sorry, that's all my feedback.

The only thing best here is the price is nett, no...
