I have been in Hong Kong for more than 20 years, and never been to Panevino, and so I opportunity came, I decided to make a try.A table for 2 was booked, I arrived, the reception lady could not dare walking towards me to welcome me, eventually proposing me to take my umbrella, saying a little welcome to Panevino...but wellThe deco, with the bottle of Chianti with a lonely candle in it brings us back to the70’, and adds to the rather cold and unappealing / welcoming place.

A table for 2 was booked, I arrived, the reception lady could not dare walking towards me to welcome me, eventually proposing me to take my umbrella, saying a little welcome to Panevino...but well
The deco, with the bottle of Chianti with a lonely candle in it brings us back to the70’, and adds to the rather cold and unappealing / welcoming place. Even more so, the fact that we were on 2.
We decided to go for the “buffet”, with ¾ of the food obviously coming from the tins.
The cold cuts must have stayed there for a certain time as the mortadella’s rim was already brown and dry.
The marinated things were just not edible.
The main, we went for pesto penne…..the smell of the fridge was a serious put off, the pasta was seriously overcooked (with nobody in the restaurant why the pasta cannot be cooked in the last minute?????) the pesto, more pasty and pesto perhaps was homemade, but it was old, tasted of old parsley and mint rather than fresh basil and olive oil.
I knew that eating it would be doing no good to my body, I had a few and I was right as a few hours later, I started to feel unwell.
All I could say is, it’s sad, and without dramatic changes I guess their mid-level outlet will meet the same fate as their short lived Tai Hang.
It’s not too late, get a proper Italian chef, stop the buffet, change the look and modernize it, shorten the menu, stop thinking that Italian always eat Bolognese and Carbonara, have a cheese and cold cut cellar of quality, …..Otherwise I afraid it won’t last much longer.
Until then, not only I would never come back but make also sure to tell my good friend not to go neither.
Looking forward for the new Panevino.
