I used to frequent the Lawry’s in Causeway Bay when I was in primary school with my siblings and grandmother. I don’t remember much from the place - just that they had Yorkshire pudding to go with your steaks and that they offered Idaho potatoes that we would excitedly pile toppings over. Come my sister’s birthday and we found ourselves visiting Lawry’s, now in Central, hoping to revisit the excitement we had back when we were children. The place was tucked away in The Galleria.

Come my sister’s birthday and we found ourselves visiting Lawry’s, now in Central, hoping to revisit the excitement we had back when we were children.
The place was tucked away in The Galleria. The restaurant exterior/interior was quite nice, the environment a comfortable mix between family-friendly and proper dining. The ceiling had gentle blue waves and lights dancing across the dome for our dinner service, acting as a nice ambience.
We were delighted to see the usuals, and went for the Roast Prime Ribs of Beef Aujus, which comes with not only the prime rib, but also spinning bowl salad, mashed potatoes and Yorkshire pudding (yay!). We also went for some sides - our long awaited Idaho potato, asparagus, mushrooms, the works.
The best part (in my humble opinion) about the spinning bowl salad is that it came with a FROZEN / COLD FORK. It really put things into the zone. I wish they gave us a bigger portion, but I set the small reservation aside because...
The carver showed up and unveiled the prime rib in all its glory. We all opted for the Lawry Cut (a supposed 10 oz), but it’s definitely too much for the average female. I ordered mine cooked medium. The meat was tender and juicy, a significant step up from their Causeway branch from what I can recall. We were given extra Yorkshire pudding on the side in case we wanted more, and it was just as delicious as I remembered it to be.
The Idaho potato still came with all the sides, topped messily in a nostalgic way, the bacon bits offering a nice kick to the sour cream, crispy potato skin and starchy goodness.
For desserts, we shared for the table a New York cheesecake, an English trifle, and an apple crumble. The desserts are all right - the trifle on the house by the generous staff for my sister’s birthday - definitely overshadowed by the prime rib and our bursting stomachs. My favorite was the apple crumble (you had to wait 20 minutes for it to bake), but I wish there was more crumble and less apple.
Either way, the staff were very helpful and friendly, the female waitress going above and beyond in snapping great photos of the family (including that beautiful dome ceiling), and printing us a polaroid as a gift to take home.
Thank you Lawry’s for such a sentimental dining experience!
