Tired of paying so much for a small portion of food? Want to binge eat after a long stressful workday? All-you-can-eat restaurants would be the answer to all your problems. The only thing you have to do is order everything on a paper and the endless amount of gourmet will be brought to your table. Hong Kongers are blessed with way too many all-you-can-eat choices, varying from Japanese hotpots to handmade dim sums, satisfying the hungry appetite of their customers. We present to you the best choices of all-you-can-eat restaurants you could find in the city.



Brazilian - Braza Churrascaria

Braza Churrascaria aims to bring the best Brazilian barbecue house experience to Hong Kong with a variety of deliciously cooked choices of Australian meat. Hidden discreetly in the streets of Lai Kwai Fong, the restaurant is decorated with a shade of brown and a cosy dimly lit environment. The first thing that catches every visitor’s eye must be the pastoral wall painting of a Brazilian chica staring down at the pleased customers.

Braza Churrascaria provides both lunch (HK$138) and dinner buffet (HK$398) of great value. For appetisers, the bar table is filled with cold dishes but be sure to save your stomach for the best part—the Churrasco. Waiter and waitresses would walk around holding a string of meat, asking the customers whether they want a slice. On your desk, there will be two cards “I am still hungry” and “No more thank you,”, so they will know when to do their job to keep your stomach happy.

Location:Braza Churrascaria, 3/F, Grand Progress Building, 15-16 Lan Kwai Fong, Central, Hong Kong

Thai - Mak Mak

Located in The Landmark, Mak Mak serves Thai-inspired cuisines ranging from authentic curries and noodles to soup. Not only does the food taste authentic Thai, but the relaxing environment surrounded by palm trees with a corner of light green tiles feels comfortable to look at. Sitting on the bamboo chairs and enjoying your Thai feast would make up for the Thai vacation lost to COVID-19.

The all-you-can-eat weekend brunch includes unlimited flavourful Thai dishes that costs only HK$328 for adults and HK$180 for kids, with a free flow of Thai drinks such as fresh lime soda and longan nahm. The flavour of Tom Yum Goong is not too strong when accompanied by the fresh lemongrass, so for those who couldn’t take the spiciness of the soup but still wanted to try the signature Thai dish, then this would be perfect for you. The sweetness and saltiness of Shrimp Paste Fried Rice with Egg is well balanced, a famous choice for the mains.

Location: Mak Mak,Shop 217A, 2/F, Atrium, The Landmark, 15 Queen's Road Central, Central, Hong Kong

Japanese - Yakiniku Kumamoto

Yakiniku Kumamoto provides all- day Japanese BBQ buffet with the best quality meat, as well as sashimi and all kinds of Japanese cuisines much to the customers’ likings. The store screams Japanese culture, displaying posters of Japanese manga characters, Japanese lanterns and waving Koinoboris.

The full set lunch buffet costs HK$316 from Monday to Thursday and HK$336 for Fridays to Sunday, whilst the full set dinner buffet costs HK$336 for Monday to Thursday and HK$338 for Friday to Sunday. Within 120 minutes, the customers can try out their signature M5 Australian beef and other seasoned meat and seafood. We recommend their boiled clam with garlic and sake wine for stimulating your taste buds.

Location: Yakiniku Kumamoto, 3/F, 477-481 Jaffe Road, Causeway Bay, Hong Kong

Yaki Oni

Inspired by the Japanese folklore of Hyakki Yagyo or the night parade of a hundred demons, Yaki Oni is decorated with a dark Japanese aesthetic. Paintings of the myth deck the grey walls and the dark colors of the furniture are specifically chosen to fit with the queer vibe of the area, making the customers feel as if they were dining with the demons.

Prices are quite similar with other all-you-can-eat yakiniku restaurants: HK$298 from 5-7 PM, HK$378 from 7:15-9:45 PM, and HK$348 from 9:30-11:30 PM. Kagoshima Red Satuma chicken, M4 wagyu beef, Hiroshima Oyster and U.S prime beef are all featured in the meal for the guests to experience the best of Japanese within two hours. To end your meal, Yaki Oni has a wide range of drinks and their own signature cocktails for their customers to choose from.

Location: Yaki Oni, 9/F, The L. Square, 459-461 Lockhart Road, Causeway Bay, Hong Kong

Zuma

Also located in The Landmark, Zuma covers two-storeys with a dining area and a bar upstairs. The modern Western interior foreshadows the lavish meal that will be savoured by the diners. Merging the casual Japanese izakaya-style and the luxurious dining style in Hong Kong, the Japanese dishes are created with a fusion touch, meeting the high standards of local food critics.

To endlessly consume the gourmets of Zuma, the weekend brunch available on Saturdays and Sundays from 11 AM-3 PM would fulfil your desires. For food only, it costs HK$738per person and if you prefer to have your meal with some wine, choose the signature (HK$988), deluxe (HK$1338) or premium (HK$2130) set including 2.5 hours of free-flow champagne. The tender Beef Tataki with Truffle Ponzu, topped with grapefruit sauce, as well as the Salmon with Lemon Shiso Soy are worth an encore.

Location: Zuma, Shop 501-503, 5/F, The Landmark, 15 Queen's Road Central, Central, Hong Kong

Wagyu Yakiniku Ichiro

Another spectacular Yakiniku place is Wagyu Yakiniku Ichiro, hidden within Po Hon building in Causeway Bay. The room is composed of a few choices of simplistic colours. Red neon lights highlight the white tiles circling the room and the wooden seats are all layered with dark green cushions, demonstrating the neat and organised part of the Japanese culture.

There are four sets to choose from, differing by the number of food choices, from 72 choices for HK$298 to 118 choices for HK$888. Before you do encores, an assortment of the best meat would be served for your tasting as the starter. Other than Yakinikus, the cold dishes such as the delicately handmade rawbeef sashimi and beef sushi are certainly hard to resist.
 

Location: Wagyu Yakiniku Ichiro, 2/F, Po Hon Building, 24-30 Percival Street,Causeway Bay, Hong Kong

Urawa Japanese 

Right next to Sheung Wan station, Urawa Japanese restaurant is one of the few salt-and-sugar reduction all-you-can-eat restaurant where you can eat without feeling too guilty. After the renovation, Urawa no longer looks like a Japanese palace and instead gives out a dark elegant vibe as the chandeliers faintly shine through the room. The quality food matches the high-class ambience, claiming that they are the best of the best.

There are four sets of buffets in the restaurant to choose from including the specials (HK$238), upgrade (HK$338), premium (HK$438), and luxury (HK$638) according to the prices on the weekdays from 5:30-8 PM. Sashimi, specially designed sushi, and other fusion dishes, as well as hotpot are on the menu. Be sure to try baked oyster topped with cheese and the Teppanyaki foie gas sushi, both of which are customers’ favourites.

Location: Urawa Japanese, G/F, Tung Hip Commercial Building, 244-252 Des Voeux Road Central, Sheung Wan, Hong Kong

Fumi

Seeking for another healthy all-you-can-eat restaurant to fuel you up after a stressful week? Branded as one of the top open rice restaurants, Fumi produces a string of Japanese delights with less salt and sugar to spoil their customers. Behind the wooden bar tables, one could observe the chefs handling your food with great skills. The area is suitable for both intimate and larges gatherings, the latter up to 12.

Fumi does not have a fixed menu as they do buffets of different themes after a period of time, so before you make a reservation, remember to check out the seasonal food theme. One of the fully booked buffets is the crab feast weekend brunch (HK$588), featuring luscious crab- themed delicacies such as crab roe cucumber salad and crab leg combo, which has overwhelmed many lucky customers.

Location: Fumi, 6/F, California Tower, 30-32 D'Aguilar Street, Central, Hong Kong

Chinese - Madame Fù

Regarded as one of the most Instagrammable Chinese restaurants in Hong Kong, Madame Fù welcomes diners all dressed up glamorously for the occasion. Their customers also come in a lot earlier to the restaurant just to get the perfect picture. There are outdoor and indoor areas, and each corner of the restaurant comes with uniquely designed rooms styled by Christian Rhomberg.

Despite the European design, Madame Fù offers a series of excellent classic dim sums. If you want to sample as much of the exquisite dishes as you can, then the free flow dim sum would answer your cravings. At a price of HK$338, you can have a taste of the deluxe menu with many attractive options. Madame Fù takes care of guests with different demands and for those who prefer gluten free cuisines, then the Stir-fried Potato Noodles with Pickled Peppers and Mozzarella and Spinach Dumpling would be the finest choice for you.

Location: Madame , 3/F, Barrack Block, Tai Kwun (Former Central Police Station), 10 Hollywood Road, Central, Hong Kong

Golden Leaf

Lead by executive chef Tony Wan who was the student of Michelin-starred master chef, Dai Long, Golden Leaf is where you can relish exceptional dim sums made with great passion. Under the golden lights, the glimmering crème de la crème cuisine is comparable to the beauty of Xi Shi, providing a royal dining experience for esteemed guests.
 

Every weekend, Golden Leaf holds a dim sum buffet from 9-11 AM. During these two hours, the lucky guests who are able to book a table could indulge in a free flow of dim sums for only HK$288. The steamed shrimp dumplings are covered with a splash of golden paint, while the steamed pork dumplings with abalone are a picturesque addition to your foodie highlight.

Don't Miss 852 Mahjong Social's Monthly Mahjong Nights at BaseHall

852 Mahjong Social will host their August edition of their monthly "Mahjong Nights" at BaseHall 02 on Aug. 12, 2026, from 7 to 10 PM.

Tickets cost HK$250 per person, which includes a HK$100 BaseHall food voucher. You can grab tickets in the club's Instagram bio.

The event, set in BaseHall's BH02 Event Space, is the latest installment of the club's monthly mixer. Organizers said they'll lay out 15 to 20 tables, spanning a range of styles and skill levels, then match guests to seats based on pace and personality.

Beginners are 100% welcome, but complete novices should brush up first. Players need a working knowledge of gameplay, so rounds stay fair for everyone at the table. For guests who already know the basics and want to sharpen them, though, they say the club is one of the fastest ways to level up.

Beyond the mahjong, the three-hour event includes mini table games sprinkled throughout the night, with a sponsor-backed prize for whoever wins. There's strictly no gambling involved. Organizers have said the games are for fun only.

"We're really here for strengthening the connection, honoring the culture and building the community," the founders told The Beat Asia.

The event taps into a familiar problem for younger players: plenty of people want to play mahjong but don't always have a group to call on to play, and even fewer want to deal with hosting. It's also quite intimidating for newcomers to join the local mahjong scene where games move faster than beginners can follow. Their club aims to be the complete opposite.

"Some of our guests tell us that the locals are a little bit too fast and scary and intimidating, and we are very inclusive at our club," the founders told The Beat Asia. "There's absolutely no gambling, and we're just here to have some fun, meet people and play mahjong."

What does it take to create the perfect cup of tea and perform at the highest level of football? Ahmad Tea explored that connection firsthand with Manchester City and Ghana international forward Antoine Semenyo at an exclusive tea tasting masterclass in Hong Kong.

Semenyo shared insights into his pre-season training, mental preparation, and personal routines ahead of the new football season, giving guests a glimpse into the discipline required to compete at the top level.

"Preparation is one of the most important parts of my career. What people see on matchday is only a small part of the work. It all comes from the routines, discipline, and mindset developed long before kick-off. I am working hard during pre-season on those processes to develop and improve everyday habits to be ready for a big season ahead," shared Semenyo.

r é n Teams Up with Té Bo, Aqua for New Charity Dinner Series

Ren Te Bo and AquaPhoto by Sebastian Lorenzi/Instagram | Romeo Morelli/Instagram

A new charity dinner series is bringing some of the city's top chefs together for a good cause.

r é n, the local social enterprise dedicated to supporting Hong Kong's underprivileged youth, has launched the r é n x EAST Dining Management (EDM) Guest Chef Dinner Series, a rotating collaboration concept featuring chefs from across the group's restaurant portfolio.

The series kicks off on Aug. 12, 2026 at Té Bo x Aqua, where Chefs Sebastian Lorenzi of Té Bo and Romeo Morelli of Aqua are joining forces for a one-night-only menu inspired by the flavors of an Italian summer.

Their six-course tasting menu runs HK$1,288 per person (plus a 10% service charge), and moves from an Apricot Tartlette with smoked stracciatella and a Hokkaido Sweetcorn Fritter, through Hamachi Tartare with caviar, Handmade Potato Gnocchi with Sicilian red prawn, and Pan-Fried Sea Bass with saffron and chorizo, before landing on Red Wine-Braised Short Ribs and closing with a Yellow Peach and Strawberry Dessert topped with mascarpone chantilly and crispy meringue.

Beyond the food, the dinner promotes a bigger cause. For every seating in the series, Té Bo will donate proceeds to the r é n Community Foundation, funneling funds directly into the organization's youth programs. Joining Lorenzi and Morelli on the floor that night is Ah Hei, one of r é n's beneficiaries, who has spent more than a year working at South Lane in Two Taikoo Place — showcasing the foundation's model of hands-on mentorship.

Founded in 2023 by Jo Soo-Tang, r é n — a word that roughly translates to "humanity" and "to be kind" — connects disadvantaged young people in Hong Kong with paid work placements in high-end kitchens and beyond, giving them real-world experience and, ideally, getting their foot in the door to build their own hospitality career. The organization also sells food and lifestyle products, from candles to pantry staples, with revenue fueling their programs.

Reservations for the Lorenzi x Morelli dinner are open via Té Bo's website.

All Mixed Up: Mius Founder Shelley Tai on Being a Bartenders' Bartender

All Mixed Up Shelley Tai

Asia's got a knack for knowing the best ways to unwind, and we're diving into that vibe with "All Mixed Up." You'll find us in cool bars, drink in hand, escaping the tropical heat and spicing up our nights. With this series, we're exploring Asia's hottest bar scenes, chatting with the wizards behind the concepts and drinks — mixologists, bartenders, brewers, and more. Whether you're a cocktail whiz or just curious about the craft, we're serving up the stories behind the faces that fuel our nights out. So grab a drink and relax as we uncover the secrets behind our favorite bars. Trust us, these stories are best served chilled!

Quitting was never an option for Shelley Tai.

Resilience was built into her the moment she left home at 16 and became completely independent by 18. By the time she was 20, Shelley started her bartending career — and never looked back.

"Being independent at a young age taught me to take responsibility for my own life. It shaped almost everything. There was no one else to rely on," Shelley shares. "So whenever I face challenges in my career — whether it was starting over as a barback, moving countries, or opening my own bar — I never really thought about quitting."

It's that determination that's led to her illustrious career over the last 16 years. Shelley was the first female Hong Kong bartender to join the global finals of the Diageo World Class cocktail competition when she won in the Hong Kong and Macau nationals.

Shelley Tai

This 2026, her peers crowned her the Altos Bartenders' Bartender of the Year at Asia's 50 Best Bars — the only recognition in the awarding body that's decided by fellow bartenders.

It's an award she's thoroughly earned. When Shelley first became a bartender, it was a part-time job to make ends meet. It didn't take long for her to decide this was something she could do full-time. So she worked for FINDS, then Drop, before joining Quinary — starting over as a barback and learning it all again from scratch.

She stayed with Quinary before moving to Singapore to work with the Nutmeg Collective. As Operations Director there, she helped manage Nutmeg & Clove, which placed at No. 50 in the World's 50 Best Bars 2025 (No. 24 in Asia's 50 Best Bars 2025).

After five years in Singapore, Shelley moved back to Hong Kong in 2025 and opened Mius in Gough Street.

A neighborhood cocktail bar, it's grounded in a straightforward philosophy: "simple things, done right." One example would be their Highball, which blends frozen whisky and chilled Japanese soda. No ice. Crisp and clean — zero frills.

In this All Mixed Up exclusive, The Beat Asia catches up with Mius Founder Shelley Tai to talk about introversion as a strength, managing a bar versus being a bartender, and her Altos Bartenders' Bartender of the Year Award.

Congratulations on the Altos Bartenders' Bartender Award 2026. Does peer recognition land differently than a competition title?

Very much. This award comes from people whom I have met and respected for many years, and that makes it incredibly meaningful.

It also reminds me that I didn't get here alone. I have had so many mentors, colleagues, and friends who have shaped the bartender I am today, so I'm very grateful.

Is there a difference between serving a fellow bartender versus a regular guest?

For us, the service is exactly the same. Every guest deserves the same level of hospitality, regardless of whether they are in the industry or not.

I think the difference is what people are looking for when they come to a bar. Bartenders might be more curious about the techniques, ingredients, or philosophy behind a drink because it's something they're passionate about. Other guests are often simply looking for a great drink and a good time. We try our best to make everyone feel welcome and leave with a good experience.

Is there a particular kind of pressure or joy in making a drink for someone who knows mixology?

It's actually a common situation for us. We have bartenders and cocktail lovers visiting bars all the time, just as we visit theirs. It's part of the industry and part of how we learn from one another.

You've told the story of how an experience in a Japanese bar in Causeway Bay changed your view on cocktails. What contributed to that shift?

It wasn't just the drink. Until then, I still thought bartending was mainly about speed and entertainment. That "Last Word" showed that bartending had so many more possibilities than I had imagined. It could be more creative, thoughtful, and intentional.

Walking away from the nightclub scene, was it about being pulled towards mixology? Or being pushed away from the burnout?

Probably both. I knew I couldn't stay in the nightclub scene forever, even though it was really fun at that time. I was looking for something more sustainable and meaningful in the long run.

When you joined Quinary in 2016, you'd already been bartending for six years, and started again as a barback. What did it take to start over again? And would you make the same choice today?

To be honest, I didn't see it as taking a step backwards. I already had experience behind the bar, but I knew there was still so much I didn't know. Starting as a barback gave me the chance to observe, practice, and develop good habits without skipping any steps.

Looking back, I would happily make the same choice.

You mentioned that newcomers now can "learn things faster." Is there something from those long apprenticeship days that you'd still want to preserve and pass on?

I think times have changed and that's a good thing. Today, technique and knowledge are much more accessible, so bartenders can progress much faster than we did. But there are still many things that require experience and time.

You can't rush judgement, consistency, attention to detail, or genuine hospitality. Those are things you develop by repeating the same standards every single day and learning from real situations behind the bar.

Could you share one of the biggest highlights of the long apprenticeship you've experienced in the past?

Honestly, there wasn't much of a highlight! It was a very repetitive job. I guess sometimes the most boring part of the journey is what prepares you for everything that comes after.

When did you realize that introversion is an asset, an edge?

I don't think there was a choice for me. 

So instead of trying to change who I was, I just focused on what I naturally enjoyed and did well. I listened more, observed more, and tried to build genuine connections with my guests in my own way. Somehow, it just worked.

How would you recommend introverted bartenders harness their introversion as a strength?

My advice is not to think that being introverted means giving up on opportunities. It just means finding your own way to take them.

Everyone has different strengths. They can all be important qualities in hospitality. Focus on what you naturally do well and develop your own style instead of trying to copy someone else's personality.

In an industry that often rewards loud personalities, has being soft-spoken ever cost you?

Not really. I have never been someone who seeks the spotlight. I prefer to focus on doing my job well and let my work speak for itself. I think this industry has room for different personalities, and being quiet doesn't mean you have less to offer.

Singapore taught you how to manage a team and build a culture. What was the hardest part of becoming a leader?

The hardest part was that I wasn't equipped with the skills to become a leader.

I was bartender-trained, not leader-trained. Everything from communication and coaching to building a culture was something I had to learn through experience. It was almost like starting from the beginning.

What are the biggest differences between being a bartender and a leader?

I think a bartender mainly focuses on becoming better themselves. A leader is very different. Your job is to bring the team together, help everyone grow, and make sure everyone is moving towards the same vision.

As a bartender, success is about how well you perform. As a leader, success is seeing the people around you succeed.

What made you decide to open your own bar, Mius?

I wanted to create a place that brought together everything I had learnt throughout my career and reflected who I had become as a person. Every place I worked taught me something different. Mius gave me the opportunity to put all those experiences into one space and create something that truly felt like my own.

In many ways, Mius is a reflection of my journey and my values.

Mius runs on restraint. As something that is arguably harder to execute and easier to overlook, how do you make sure guests can understand the care and intent behind a "simple" drink?

I don't think simple means it's not enough. 

We actually don't try to overexplain what we do or emphasize how much work goes into every drink. For me, hospitality is about creating a feeling. If a guest enjoys the drink, feels comfortable, and wants to come back, then we've done our job. They don't need to understand every technique behind it.

Where does this pull toward simplicity come from in you personally?

Earlier in my career, I wanted to show people what I could do.

Today, I care more about how people feel than how impressed they are. That's why simplicity is so attractive to me. It removes distractions and lets the important things speak for themselves.

Why is your iceless highball the drink that represents your homecoming?

It's the drink I enjoy most after work, so it felt natural to introduce it at Mius. Everyone is familiar with a highball served over ice. Our iceless highball is simply another possibility.

I think that's what I enjoy the most about bartending; there's always room to look at something familiar from a different perspective.

Do you believe that what a person orders tells you who they are?

Maybe a little. But I don't think it tells you everything. Sometimes it reflects a person's mood more than their personality. I think what's more interesting is the conversation behind the order.

Which bar right now makes you feel like a guest again, the way that "Last Word" drink in Causeway Bay once did?

I don't think it's one particular bar anymore. These days, it's more about the people and the hospitality than the cocktails themselves.

What's next for you and for Mius?

I hope Mius continues to grow naturally and become a place people keep coming back to for many years. 

Personally, I want to keep learning and building. Not just better bars, but better teams and better experiences for our guests.

Looking for a meaningful way to stay active while giving back? Then it's time to mark your calendars for HUNGER RUN 2026, as it returns to the Tseung Kwan O Waterfront on Nov. 22, 2026. Organized by social enterprise FOODSPORT and sponsored by Sunlight REIT, the annual charity run combines fitness, community spirit, and food security under the theme, “Run + Food + Charity.”

Whether you're a seasoned runner, a family looking for a fun weekend activity, or a company planning a team-building day, there’s a race category for everyone. Participants can choose from a 10KM Individual and Team Race, a 4KM Individual and Family Run, or the brand-new 1KM Pet-Friendly Run, where furry companions are invited to join the fun.

This year's event ambassador is Majimeow (麻吉貓), the beloved Taiwanese cat character encouraging healthier lifestyles and charitable giving.

Corporate teams are especially encouraged to take part. Not only is the event a great opportunity to promote workplace wellness and strengthen team bonds, but every corporate team that signs up will also help unlock additional donations to support Feeding Hong Kong.

Companies can also earn special recognition through initiatives, such as the Most Committed Organization Award for organizations with the highest number of participants on the event day, a Supporting Organization status for organizations that sponsors 20 employees or under-privileges, and the Caring Company Nomination 2026/27.

Beyond the race day, attendees can look forward to themed markets and carnival activities on Nov. 7-8 and 21-22, 2026, at MCPOne and a new 4KM "Food Chaser" Fun Run challenge.

Gather your friends, family, colleagues, or even your pets, and join the movement to make a difference one kilometer at a time!
