Reviews
The restaurant boasts an impressive selection of wines and cocktails. However, while the overall food was acceptable, it fell short of my expectations. The slow-cooked smoked ribs were the standout dish, offering a delicious flavor. Unfortunately, the rest of the meal was served at a lukewarm temperature, and the quality of the side dishes did not justify the price.
In summary, Prime Steak & Grill excels in service and atmosphere, but the food quality and temperature could use some improvement.
The restaurant did not account for vegetarians taking their business lunch set menu – although I explicitly told the manager of my dietary requirements of no alcohol and no meats, he insisted that only a small amount of alcohol would be used and it would be evaporated anyway and all dishes had alcohol of some degree.
When the customer says they are allergic to alcohol one would expect greater attentiveness and accommodation as a 2 Michelin starred establishment inside a 5 star hotel.
There was a new waiter in training and was apparently not taught the proper etiquette of placing the bread dish to the side before serving a course.
Some members of staff spoke English while others spoke Cantonese and Mandarin to us. This should’ve been previously communicated after first contact with the customer and after knowing their preferences to make the dining experience as smooth and as tailored as possible.
Although talking with the manager about the dietary restrictions, the starter of shiso leaf tempura came with foie gras shavings which from my perspective was a shame, as they could’ve made something last minute that was suitable for vegetarians. This is also a testament to how the chef and its staff can really stand out in terms of dealing with last minute changes and situations.
Otherwise, the ladies at the reception did an outstanding job and were very professional and attentive, both on the phone and in the restaurant inquiring whether there were any special occasions and walked customers out to the lift!
So we have ordered the tasting menu with wine pairing.

Fired prawn ball, radish with cream cheese and deep fried potato with smoked salmon as welcome snack. They are all nice and make us more looking forward.

Some bread before the dinner really start. Always like seaweed butter, flavour of ocean saltines. The butter texture here is more thick and won’t melt right away.

Well, to me fresh oyster is always the best. Poached increased the oyster flavour, decreased the ocean aroma. All the effort, I mean presentation is perfect, it taste good, but is just doesn’t give me a WOW factor.

This lobster watermelon tart was great. Fresh lobster with different style, lobster salad and lobster slice, give it a different effect and flavour. Watermelon on the bottom, serve with caviar and avocado sauce. Freshness, saltiness and all different texture, not surprise is was good as all ingredients are just real fine level.

Duck foie gras was creamily moose, strong flavour which I enjoy a lot, even upgraded with the consommé jelly, balanced with the cheery burlat and serve with toasted bread.
My friend got a small appetite, so I had half of his dishes and is was not good. The flavour was just so different from mine, nearly like the food was turning bad, really.

Basil butter cooked John Dory was very nice. I don’t usually like western style fish, cos the meat are always tough. This fish was okay but taste so nice with the basil butter.
The veggies and shellfish on the side was fresh and nice, but the tomato mash was a little too salty.

I don’t eat beef and mine was switched to pigeon. Perfectly medium rare, texture was just good, juicy tender. But not the best pigeon I had, cos I like stronger aroma, there’s improve space on the special flavour of pigeon.

Not a fan of dessert, but I love almond. Sour and almond? I didn’t know it could match, but yes, quite nice.

So far, this experience was just alright to me. The server was friendly, environment was good, but for Michelle 2 star? The food was good, but It really didn’t surprise me.
Too bad it was on the third floor – if only it was higher up the view would be much better.
Thank you chef Fabrice!
