Heirloom Eatery & More (已結業)

The food here just isn't up to scratch - everything sounded great on the menu - all marketed as wholesome, home-cooked style fare. In reality everything tasted pretty average. The biggest disappointment was chocolate cake - synthetic and like it was from an industrial bakery. Total rip-off.

At the beginning, the feedbacks about Heirloom wasn't so positive reading from a few media platforms, but everyone agreed that it sounded at least promising on paper. Some who visited during the opening stages weren't at all impressed at the execution. What persuaded me to come finally was the praising by a few very knowledgeable Foodies, who always know precisely what they are talking about when it comes to food. I guess most restaurants have problems when they first start up, right?

話說某週末和朋友經過上環荷李活道一帶，眼見這間店子環境相當不錯，簡約的裝修而且帶有悠閒的感覺，想像食物也不會太差的，所以隔了兩天便和朋友來到這裡吃午餐試試他們的出品。我們特地選了店子最外面的位置，對面是荷李活道公園，而且這條馬路車輛不多，在高樓底的餐廳下對著街外午餐，我們也很有到了外國的感覺，實在是非常寫意。這裡沒有set lunch，但也有不同的選擇，由於午飯還是避免吃得太飽，我們兩人就點了兩份sandwiches一起分著吃，另外還可選跟沙律或炸蕃薯條，而我們就各要了一樣試試看。Sandwiches四款中我們選了The Barefoot Contessa 和 Sumac & Spice & All Things Nice，前者是不差的，但後者實在是很好吃，非常推介呢! The Barefoot Contessa中間主要的餡料是用上穀飼牛，牛肉烤得生熟度剛好，內裡肉質很嫩一點也不韌，而且還帶有點點肉汁，肉味不算非常濃郁但配上horseradish cream酸酸甜甜的醬汁令它變得更開胃，加上爽口的芝麻菜和烤得脆口的麵包，其實這已是不錯的了，但奈何後者真的更好吃!!另一款Sumac &

Time of day: mid-afternoon for dessertWe ordered:English Breakfast Tea -Dilmah tea, flavour was weak (even after 15 minutes) and the teapot leaked, making a bit of a messHot Chocolate - a mediocre powder that was not mixed well with the milk; served lukewarm when asked for hotter milk, it came back with a film of sticky chocolate on the outside as if it had been nuked in the microwaveMilk Cake - delicious but left out on the table without a cake cover to guard it against the traffic and air fro

Its the first time I visited Heirloom not knowing what to expect. Walking in reminded me of a recent trip to Seattle, where the look and feel of many places were very individualistic, such as this one. I absolutely love it but can see how HK diners expect everything to be normed & may not appreciated a table appointed with an array of designer chairs versus unison chairs from IKEA. If you are not artistic & do not like mixed modern design features, better go to the Press Room or another place ne

I had been to Heirloom before, it's mediocre food with a nice setting, apart from the little bistro tables that almost topple over (be careful).However today I stopped by for a coffee as it's very near from my house and asked for a double-shot latte, for an extra boost of energy.The coffee was fine, nothing out of the ordinary but OK. However, when I got the bill they simply charged me for two lattes..?!?(usually restaurants add a few dollars for the second shot, not DOUBLE the cost of the bever

This was our third time back at Heirloom. Our first visit was fairly positive, although they were out of my first request.Our second visit to Heirloom, we wanted the sweet potato fries with my meal, but they were out so we walked out.Last night, we thought we would give it another try since it's just a couple minute walk from our apartment. First problem. I told the lady to put us down for three. I held up three fingers and said three. When our table came up she somehow thought I said two, so we

Popped in for dinner on a wednesday night. Got a table no problem. Love the design.However, menu is completely lacking. This was my second time I have had tacos there, first time was fish and second time was pork. Both were very very boring - with just a bit of fish or pork on a small tortilla and a tiny bit of topping like sauce or cabbage. Needed much more of everything. Made me sad that we had gone out and had mexican rather than making it at home. Happily the side of corn was yummy.My boyfri

Awesome food, cute decor, friendly service, lovely neighborhood and happy mood. This mix is what I experienced that very special night when I saw Mrs Anson Chan, Ms Lydia Dunn and many other previous civil servants at the restaurant. It's absolutely fantastic the ambiance, the taco is mini but so fun and the Balinese salad, a goose liver with pumpkin and a short ribs! Fabulous mix I had but regrettably they don't serve alcoholic drinks like wine yet, otherwise it would be an even happier meal. I

I live near Hollywood Road and have been patiently waiting this new eatery to open around the corner. Much to my delight, doors are open and menu is insane! Since opening (two weeks ago) I have already visited 4 times!The lowdown.... They have only 4 tables at streetfront- Great if you have a dog/smokerThey have a bartop with very delicious looking cakes on i! (would only recommend if you're not on a diet!) As these are so good! So far have triend their carrot cake cupcake and red velvet cake. B

Went to Heirloom with friends for brunch today. Expectations were quite high based on recent reviews, however was quite disappointed. A few points i want to raise:-Upon arrival there was no-one to greet us, so we made our way upstairs to find the rest of the party. This was okay, given that if our party wasn't downstairs, then my deduction they had to be upstairs.- Taco's were really small. More like a round wonton skin with some meat and raddish. Taste was not anything to go home raving ab

Late lunch - got there at 1.45 PM - only one small table available so I had to squeeze in right next to the bar.Very nice decor and furniture. - but I was not feeling particularly comfortable though - too cramped, noisy, and the smell coming form the kitchen felt a bit fried and oily. I had to ask for the menu. Fairly small selection of dishes - some had their price crossed out so I had to assume that they were not available. After some hesitation I ordered a Cappucino (32HK$) and their ... "B
