The inaugural Tatler Best Hong Kong and Macau Awards has set out not only to identify the top restaurants but also to define what “best” means in 2025. As part of this, the *Tatler Best 20 Restaurants in Hong Kong* list has been carefully curated to reflect the culinary creativity, cultural impact, and lasting quality of the city’s most influential dining venues. This list showcases restaurants that are at the forefront of Hong Kong’s constantly evolving food scene, capturing the essence of modern dining in one of the world’s most dynamic culinary capitals.
Among the top contenders is Amber, a fine-dining institution in Central. Under the leadership of Richard Ekkebus, Amber has become a global influence in the world of high-end gastronomy.
