It May Be A Bit Too Pricy
You Still Have Many Options for
Hong Kong American Restaurants Food

In my opinion, HK American food is pretty pricy. To feed a family of 4, it will cost HKD1,000 easy (around USD125). Compare that to going to a decent Chinese restaurant, this price could feed a family of 6 to 8.

Hong Kong American restaurants serve all the American food without the differentiation of which part of the country, such as potato skins, ribs, spaghetti and meatball, quesadilla, caesar salad, steak and many more. You name it, they got it.

The 2 Hong Kong American restaurants we recommend are Dan Ryan's Chicago Grill in the Pacific Place Mall and Tony Roma's in the Time Square mall. Both of them have been in business for quite a while, especially Dan Ryan's. You can communicate with the wait staff in English without any problem in both restaurants.

According to Perry, Dan Ryan's has the best steak. It's very expensive. They have another branch in the Ocean Terminal and Festival Walk malls. But Perry insists that the one in the Pacific Place serves better food.

The setting of this restaurant is very similar to a "Sports Bar". Seating is comparatively tight. Service is ok. If you compare it with most Chinese restaurants in Hong Kong, you may be a bit disappointed. The portion is exactly as big as in the States.

About Tony Roma's, we had been to the one in the World Trade Centre several times before they moved to their new location. The old one had a harbour view which was fantastic. But the one in Time Square is not bad at all. Seating is much more comfortable than in Dan Ryan's. In my opinion, their wait staff is better.

The portions are more reasonable in size which is more appropriate for the Asian expectations. I personally prefer their baby back ribs over there. They have St. Louis-Style Ribs and Carolina Honeys on the menu.

Ruby Tuesday, T.G.I. Friday's and Outback Steakhouse do have branches in Hong Kong.

I have been to Ruby Tuesday (hope I remember it correctly) when it was in Ocean Terminal with my best friend, Elaine, once. The renovation is the same as in the States. Food, service and atmosphere was great. Price is no more cheaper than Tony Roma's.

We have been to Outback Steakhouse in Causeway Bay in 2007. The renovation and menu was the same as in the States. But the food and service, unfortunately, was very disappointing. Perry is the BIG Outback Steakhouse fan, just like me being the Starbucker. We hope it has changed since then.

If you are on a budget, you may want to stay away from the Hong Kong American food.
