Dominic's Review:
We had lunch here organised by a group of French friends thus we had special treatment. The chef came out to greet us. The food was simply great!

This is the menu

Le Menu du Beaujolais

Saucisson en Brioche
ou
Salade de Crabe et Papaye

Pave de Saumon a la Beaujolaise
ou
Coq au Vin

Poire Pochee au vin rouge

Irene's Review:
Salade de Crabe et Papaye, Pave de Saumon a la Beaujolaise are very good. Poire Pochee au vin rouge is a very delicious dessert. The pear was soaked in wine with honey and other favours for 1 - 2 days, j'adore! We used the area at the back of the restaurant. Very nice atmosphere. Recommend here for business or causual group functions.

We order Onion Soup, Seafood Soup, Mussel, Ham and Cheese Sandwiches, French Fries, Creme Brulee and drinks etc

Bread is great as they have special chef for bread.
Creme Brulee is highly recommended for the super crispy caramel at the top.
The restaurant is rather small & the tables are set too near to each others, a bit noisy, the waiters were too busy in walking around.
We had been waited for 45mins for food after finished the soup.
Generally I would recommend the tea set which is good value for money - one piece of cake + coffee with refill at just $75.

Excellent service as you would expect from Four Seasons Hotel. The French restaurant Caprice has 8 tables by the window with great view of the harbour. Very nice modern decoration with open kitchen. The food was very delicious, we tried the 2-course menu just under HK$400, the portion was the right size. We didn't have wine as it was a bit early to drink. Overall, it was a very good lunch experience. The price is however a bit on the high side, with drinks and service charge, it was about HK$550 per person without wine. Perhaps we had extremely high expectation that we were expecting the high quality that would have given us some big surprise. We did have some pleasant surprise, the manager remembered from my previous conversation that we were coming here for a birthday lunch, though we didn't actually make the reservation then, they were still able to figure out. Thus extra dessert and a candle on the cake. Tres Bien!

Review: I know this is supposed to be a leading restaurant in Hong Kong. We probably ordered the wrong dishes -- there were 3 of us and we all ordered a different fish. Frankly, nothing special, especially for a restaurant of this calibre. Of course, the restaurant is beautiful.

Review: Opulent, comfortable interior with equally attractive smoking/ waiting area. Unfortunately you cant eat design! Ordered the chef's recommendation course (I think it was HK$900+ each), and the food was bland, ok at best. Disappointing for a restaurant that has the interior design to be one of the best in HK. Service was so-so and erratic.
