Great place for a group of friends to share many of the tasty dishes. Can also accommodate vegetarians so perfect! Love sitting in the garden for a holiday feel.

The food is yummy but the portions are too small & pricey. Moreover the service was extremely slow. We had to remind them thrice to give us a bowl of steam rice, which took them a good 20 mins. Their chilli sauce is amazing so thumbs up for that! They've got a variety of dishes on the veggie menu, adding more dishes to that would be great. The outside seating ambience is very nice, though the quality of the furniture can be improved. Inside seating is also very nice but most people prefer eating outside. Overall, it was an all right experience, probably won't go in on a Sunday, better to go when there's not a lot of rush & they can serve better.

Great food and service and really nice outdoor covered area. Menu was almost too extensive but staff were very helpful in recommending dishes. Good for larger groups.

Good dining experience overall. Satisfied with the food, especially Ma Po Tofu. However services could be improved. Outside seating is definitely better as it could get quite loud inside.

Delicious spicy little Chinese dishes, great Xiaolongbao & friendly service. Wine & cocktail selection very good - but served in plastic cups - an absolute no go for me!

Book a table outside if the weather is nice. It wasn't too pleasant sitting outside in the middle of summer when the mosquitoes are out in full force. Thankfully the restaurant do provide mozzie repellant which helped. Food at Sohofama is always delicious - the hits include the black garlic sliced Garoupa fish, salted egg yolk prawns and peanut sauce noodle (cold dish). The service is a bit touch and go - most of the servers are nice but they weren't very attentive.

Good home cooked food, attentive servers but the cost of the diet coke and rule by the glass and not the can is terrible. It is almost annoying and not worth going because the drinks were very expensive.

The service was very slow from start to end. The food does not deserve the hype; some dishes were honesty not very good. The prices were very high. Try Yardbird instead.

Good food, typical Chinese dishes but always with an interesting twist. We loved the shrimp with pomegranate sauce and the plum pork. Salt and pepper squid was a bit too salty for me. Great, attentive service from our server.

The food at Sohofama was fantastic - we started with delicious pork buns, then followed with beautiful tea-smoked duck, green beans with prawns and miso eggplant. The wine selection was well chosen and reasonably priced, and the service was very friendly. It is a beautiful space that makes you feel completely away from the hustle and bustle of Hong Kong.

Although the food was ok the service was really slow. appetiser didn't come till after I cancelled the order. We ordered 5 items only 3 came. Very disappointed. We could see the delivery orders were going at a mad pace. Perhaps they should have separate kitchens for delivery and sit down customers. We heard the next table was complaining their missing order too. Probably will not go again.

Wonderful food and fantastically atmospheric setting sitting out in the coutysrd of the beautifully converted old police married quarters. We particularly enjoyed the Peking duck which was the best we've ever eaten and delicious dim sum, but also ate some delicious less conventional dishes. Next to the tiny charming little G. O.D market. Attentive and helpful staff. Excellent vibe. Definitely put this in your list of places to eat when in Hong Kong .

Great food and atmosphere! This was the first time in a very long time for me to relish Chinese food without fearing the undesirable consequences of MSG ridden toxic food. Wish we had a similar health conscious Chinese restaurant in Tokyo!

Very disappointed with the service. We ordered truffles Sui Mai and the meat seems to be spoiled. We told the manger but they refused to accept the fact rather he said to us that you must have not tasted truffles ! Honestly, we love truffles and we have had very good quality truffles before. We did not argue with him but we will not return again.
