Sushi Shikon

• One of the most disappointing “fine dining” experiences in Hong Kong I completely agree with another reviewer here — Sushi Shikon is nowhere near what you’d expect from a three-Michelin-star restaurant. The food was honestly so-so at best. Every piece of sushi was overly vinegared to the point of being unpleasant, and nothing stood out as memorable or refined. Service was shockingly poor — cold, disconnected, and uninterested. Nobody even asked why plates went back untouched. The atmosphere was plain and lacked any sense of warmth or hospitality. We also noticed premium seafood being prepared right in front of us, but none of it was served to our seating. When we asked, we were told it was “for the next guests.” That pretty much sums up the whole experience — we felt like an afterthought in someone else’s kitchen. For the crazy price they charge, this place delivers zero value and no magic. I honestly don’t understand how it holds three Michelin stars. Absolutely not worth it — I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone expecting proper omakase or fine dining standards.

• The only reason I gave 4 was vs Michelin 3 star… it was a really good experience including food, drinks and service, but the price and Michelin 3 star? Sorry, I am not convinced…

• I came back to Sushi Shikon after 4 years. My had a very good experience my first time, (it was just before Covid). This time my expectation was very high, also because I read a lot of bad reviews. I chose also a sake pairing for my omakase experience. The dinner was good, not great. I was expecting a bit more particular dishes as the first time but unfortunately didn’t get any. I added to my experience the octopus and a gunkan with sea urchin which costed me 200+550hkd. I mean the experience was very good but it didn’t give me a wow effect and something to distinguish themselves from the other omakase as I expect from a 3 Michelin Stars restaurant. I felt also the dinner a bit rushed as well. Last time I had around 2:30 relaxing experience, this time in 1:30 we were done… Anyway the service was excellent which is a must for such kind of restaurant

• Three Michelin stars? For what? This doesn’t even deserve a basic recommendation. Every piece of sushi was overwhelmed by vinegar genuinely unpleasant, and simply not edible. This was the worst sushi I’ve ever had, especially at this level. Service was disconnected no one asked why plates went back untouched. No interest at all. We saw premium seafood being prepared in front of us, but none of it was served or even offered. When we asked, we were told it was “for the next seating”. The entire experience felt like we were intruding on someone else’s prep kitchen. Poor value, zero engagement, and no sense of hospitality. Absolutely not worth the price. I wouldn’t recommend this to anyone expecting proper omakase or fine dining standards
