Mono

Since it’s opening Mono is simply the best restaurant in Hong Kong and beyond (and I eat a lot, everywhere)! They are professionals with a heart from the moment you step into tge venue to the moment you leave again. As a guest you are greeted properly and with a big smile, you enter into another world full if service and the best food ever both in quality and in creativity. Chef Ricardo is a maestro in combining flavours and creating new tastes, he is a true artist who is always full of new ideas. I just LOVE his style! Once settled in you can simply enjoy to be surprised and savour the tastes of South America. I like to try new restaurants, but so far non gas measured up to Mono. Simply the best!

My partner and I went to MONO for our anniversary and the team was great! We got greeted as soon as we arrived and got taken to our seats. I highly recommend seating by the high table to see the full experience of the restaurant. The atmosphere was really great and it was an honour to experience Chef Ricardo’s journey and helped by Normie and Abbi to be immersed in all of the courses which was truly a delightful experience of an evening. MONO is a great place for surprises and I would like to come again with more exciting surprises along with wine and delicious food!

Best Latin American in hk Food: Exotic ingredients with great combination. Eg oyster with banana is unprecedented. Cocoa and Pigeon are signature And the sourdough, many might overlook it but the white sesame goes so well with the crust Usage of mashua, mezcal, tonburi, aji Amarillo, huacatay and caper are amazing! Service: Abbi for her service, knowledge, wisdom and warmth Christine for her kindness and passion Chris for his creativity and hardwork Andez for his management and enthusiasm

Exceeded expectations. Few restaurants can outperform a customer who walks in and is already expecting a top Asian 50 and Michelin experience. As a customer, I finished the meal with appreciation, not only for taste and visual satisfaction but for feeling well taken care of. Mono’s team respects people; they listen and observe their customer's needs. Chef delightfully served extra sauce and bread as he saw I enjoyed dipping to the very last drop. I learned about the ingredients used, visually seeing the natural form while tasting the incredible flavors after a magical touch in the kitchen. The team proactively connected with the customers to share their stories and listened then served us a surprise and delight. I felt I was cared for throughout, from start to end. Amazing customer experience. There was not a moment I felt left out. Hats off to the chef and team. Take time and slow down to enjoy the layering of flavors and texture which the chef and team skillfully crafted, the preciousness of the food temperature to well designed plating. Stress releasing music played in a soothing blue-toned space, with a lovely, friendly front team who will to genuinely connect - a comprehensive enjoyment.

Food - When it comes to south American food, you may instantly link it with something with a punch of flavors. Not Mono. We tried the full menu. The delicates may look good in picture but when they come to your palate they taste like plain hotel food, which lacks personality and warmth. The whole experience is a meh. Makes me wonder if their Michelin chef still works there or resigned already. Service - The waitress who served our table is professional, for she definitely knows what she's doing, and no doubt deserves a five star. But the sommelier is disappointing cause they fail to understand the customer's needs and preference, and stuck in their own way with a RBF. The senior looking waitor (or manager?) definitely did give a black face for the failed wine recommendation process. Atmosphere - not outstanding. Neither chic nor warm. To sum up, there are definitely better Michelin restaurants in Hong Kong. Not recommending to anyone and probably will never come back.

Came highly recommended by friends especially for their sourdough bread. Small restaurant with only 30 seats so reservations and deposit are needed. We were seated at the high tables facing the kitchen so we could see the cooks preparing our dishes which was amazing. Service was excellent and the manager was so personable. She also had a sense of humour which made the experience so much more delightful! We took the full tasting menu - Journey. The concept of the ingredients were from Latin American with a twist of Cacao. More of my thoughts on each of the dishes in the pictures.

It was better than we were expecting. Highly recommended if you wanna experience something special in HK. Can walk through the building from the main road to get to that little alley.

Congratulations to the entire team for the recent Best 50 in Asia placement. I’d been wanting to visit from Canada for so long, and two wrong reservations later, they were kind enough to open the dining room for us for one of the most beautiful tasting menus I’ve ever had in the world. A truly memorable experience of Latin American flavours with Hong Kong touches, and perfect service from the entire team. Thank you, Mono!
