"What’s not to like about this place? If you are a seafood enthusiast you must try this place. Get over the fact that the products are not coming directly from the wild ocean (probably from a farm) but they are at least fresh and you will enjoy a wholesome culinary experience. Table arrangement is pretty sleek with your own mini steamer station, proper tools to operate and get the most out of the seafood shells and you are all set for a pure enjoyment of a sea food festival. Get one of the sets as they come with a reasonable price and you get to try most of it and make sure you come with a decent hunger stomach. Service is super kind and efficient, fast and polite (common for Hong Kong in general) sit back enjoy and relax!"

"Steam seafood as lunch for the first time, the portion is fit for female while maybe not enough for men. The seafood is “OK” fresh but not very fresh since we ordered two lunch sets while found 6pcs of clams are dead and not open at all. At the end you could pick rice/congee/noodle to serve with the water/soup. Congee is the best one Quite a good deal if you buy the voucher at Opxxxxxx platform, only $98/set. 值得一試的蒸海鮮午市套餐,記得上去OPxxxxxx平台買定餐飲券,只係$98。"

"This place serves nice and fresh seafood with plenty of choices in their basic sets. You can also add extra seafood if you want, though some options were sold out the night we went. We were already pretty full from our sets, so we didn’t need more. You start with steamed seafood, and when you’re almost done, there’s a hot pot at the bottom for cooking balls, meat, or veggies. You can choose congee or noodles to finish the meal, which is a nice touch, but getting super full. Even if you’re with friends, everyone gets their own table and pot, which feels a bit isolating. Your friends across from you are pretty far away, especially when the food arrives and takes up space. If you’re hoping to catch up with friends you haven’t seen in a while, this might not be the best spot. You’re busy cooking your own seafood and watching the timing, which makes it hard to chat. The food is good, but the setup isn’t great for socializing."

"All good except one piece of crab went funky. It smells like fermented bean curd. Chef offered an exchange but I'd rather skip then having another bite..."

"Love the decoration here, actually feels like you're on a boat. This restaurant also caters to single diners as they have blinds for each individual seat, so no shame in eating alone! We got a $218 set and a $398 set. Even though the $218 set already was well worth the money with meat, vegetables and takoyaki, my favourite was the porridge base. As you steam the meat and the seafood, their essence drips down to the porridge which is mixed with pumpkin and taro. It gives a smooth and filling finish. The $398 set also had two hairy crab, we opted for one male and one female. They were very yummy! Also came with sashimi and dessert. After steaming for 15 minutes, orange goodness was oozing out."

"Omg I love this place!! Fantastic value for sets and it's perfect for solo diners. Steam is healthier than hot pot too! I was surprised to see a few non-Asians here. Good taste!!! Rarely I would consider returning to a restaurant and this is one of them"

"A very unique experience with fresh seafood! It's really reasonably priced with the cheapest set being $218 and the one with crab being $288. Every person gets their own individual pot, so u get to cook at your own pace. The seafood is really fresh. If the clams do not open after being steamed, they will help u replace it! One set is more then enough... We were all really full at the end. Will definitely come again!"
