It was my mother's Birthday, I wanted to take her somewhere with a view on The Peak for a nice meal before I go tomorrow back to the UK.After not able to get a table at Pearl, I called 巨八, they said I can have a window table, but cutting Birthday cake would be extra 100 dollars, so I declined. I should know this might not be the best choice. Why did I not come here and have a look at reviews!?In the end I left the cake at home and went up with expectation of high quality seeing it is at The Peak

In the end I left the cake at home and went up with expectation of high quality seeing it is at The Peak.We were taken to a taken near the end of the restaurant, the windows were so dirty we could not get a good view. We were also sitting under the viewing tower, there was constant noises coming through, it was like being in a 茶餐廳 the WHOLE TIME.
There were some fake reserved signs on tables to pretend they were more popular than they really are We ordered set dinner for 2 Toro Sasimi - There were tendons all over it, very chewy, definitely bad toro. We told the waitress, who said she would tell the chefs, but nothing happened.
Lobster Tempura - Not very crispy, but okay.
Baked Oyster - Mayonnais didn't go well with it.
Dumpling - Can taste MSG all the way
Fried Rice with Bacon - Terrible, cheap bacon with normal Chinese rice.
Seaseme Ice Cream - It had ice inside, must have been very old
You can get better Japanese meal in Tin Hau at half the price, only went there for the view, which wasn't really there.
Overpriced, poor ingredients, bad view.
Avoid!
