In a world where modern conveniences have all but replaced the beloved dim sum trolley, this renowned Hong Kong establishment stands out as a beacon of time-honored tradition. As one of the few remaining restaurants that still offers this classic dining experience, it's truly a must-visit for any dim sum enthusiast.With a rich history that has spanned decades, this dim sum institution has managed to maintain its iconic status while also undergoing a sleek renovation in recent years. The result is a beautifully designed space that seamlessly blends the old and the new, creating an atmosphere that is both comfortable and visually striking.While the wait times can be substantial during the peak lunch rush, the experience is well worth it. As you're seated, the familiar sight of servers deftly maneuvering the dim sum trolleys through the tables instantly transports you to a bygone era, where the art of carefully selecting each delicacy was an integral part of the dining ritual.And the dim sum itself? Absolutely delectable. From the delicate bites of barbecue pork buns to the delightfully juicy shrimp dumplings, every morsel that graces the trolley is a testament to the culinary expertise honed over generations. The traditional flavors shine through, with each item prepared to perfection and bursting with authentic Cantonese flair.What I love most about this place, however, is the sense of tradition and community that permeates the entire experience. There's a palpable energy in the air as diners engage in the time-honored practice of hand-selecting their dim sum straight from the trolley, a ritual that has been passed down through the ages.In a city that is constantly evolving, it's truly heartwarming to see establishments like this one preserving the essence of Hong Kong's rich culinary heritage. So if you're in the mood for a taste of dim sum history, coupled with consistently delicious bites, this iconic restaurant is an absolute must-visit.

Service standards have fallen here. At peak lunch time, there are not enough trolleys so those sitting far from the kitchen will not have any trolley come by or a poor selection by the time it does. As a result, people are getting up to where the trolleys come out of the kitchen to pickup the dim sum items, resulting in a queue and is also dangerous as the guests weave back to their tables carrying the dim sum items. Our meal cost about HK$320 per head for very ordinary dim sum. We'll be looking for alternative places from now on.

I come here at least once a week for lunch. I love that they still keep the HK traditional style of food trolleys as this is becoming extinct in HK. Since you wont need to order from a Chinese menu, this place is perfect for tourists , to just point at foods in the trolley. No chinese needed and no communication barrier! The food here is always of very good quality and very freshly made. We usually have to wait for the food to be made and once the aunties come out with the new steaming hot dimsums, everyone just rushes there to see whats new whats fresh. Truly an amazing experience that is unique to Maxim palace! Other places nowadays only have the standard menu or dimsum paper for ticking and this traditional trolley way of ordering is kept in Maxim palace up till now. Must try items here include siumai, shrimp har gow, phoenixs claws, cheung fun rice rolls, mango sago, sago egg pudding, cha siu pastry, egg tarts and their scallop egg white fried rice is really amazing. Every item is freshly steamed and piping hot while served. My favourite thing to order is the siumai - its perfeclty made here, with huge chunks of pork marinated to perfection and fresh prawns wrapped into a thin dough wrapper. Its a piece of comfort food with the right amount of chewiness and freshness in one huge bite. The deep fried dough balls - (沙翁）are also a must try - this is a sweet dimsum that isnt found easily in hk. The eggy dough balls are fried and become a puffy huge balloon kind of donut pastry which is rolled in sugar, and this dessert is so light it wont fill your stomach! The crispy outer layer is wrapped in sugar and once you bite into it, the inside is a fluffy egg dough which tastes really good and fresh. The grains of sugar on the outer coat adds crunch and texture to the whole dessert!

We will never eat here again!!Went for dinner, when ordering we had asked the staff multiple times whether our AE card can be used for a certain promotion and was told yes. When the bill came, we were rudely told our card cannot be used for the promotion, that we had to pay full price and there was nothing that could be done about it.One - we only ordered the promotion since the staff said it was fine, else we would order something else.Two - the staff collecting payment and the manager rudely tell us nothing they can do about it, your card not applicable.Ended up paying 50% more than we expected. Never eating here again.
