We have been to D&W before, about a month ago for our anniversary, and were so impressed we decided to visit again for our weekly date night. What impressed us last time was the excellent service, view, food quality and prices. Nothing has changed and that's for the better.When we arrived our table wasn't ready (we had a 'late' 9pm booking), nothing the staff could do about that so we headed out for a drink.

When we arrived our table wasn't ready (we had a 'late' 9pm booking), nothing the staff could do about that so we headed out for a drink. A useful touch would be to use the counter area as you walk in for drinks, else you're kind of hanging around in the shopping centre waiting.
We were shows by our waiter (Matt - who was amazing) to a large booth, just for the two of us. The menus arrived promptly and we ordered a sparkling water and bottle of Gavi di Gavi ($620). The wines are quite pricy compared to the food (more below) with wines starting at $500 a pop and I would say most folks would order around the $600 range. If they had some choices in the $350-400 range it would be much more in line with food pricing.
Menu is appetisers , breads then either small or large/sharing mains. We ordered, as we did last time, the n'duja (think "Italian spicy salami") and gruyere bread ($70). It is simply outstanding, resembling more like a small, fluffy pizza. We can't get enough of this dipped in some olive oil.

I chose the beef tartare ($150). I've had steak tartate all over HK and this is as good as, if not better, than both Morton's and Pierre, at a fraction of the price. It's not only a huge portion but served perfectly with an egg on top and croutes. Absolutely fantastic.

Wife had the grilled octopus with potato and chorizo ($145) and she absolutely adores it, and the octopus was grilled to perfection.

For my main I went off-piste and chose the ox cheek doughnut with apricot jam ($135). I'm not a massive fan of sweet/savoury but nothing so far made me wonder it wouldn't be anything but delightful, And it was. The slow cooked ox cheek and sweet doughnut (resembling a large scotch egg) matched perfectly with the jam.

Wife had the 350g rib eye ($350) which she loved, but preferred the fillet she got last time ($300) as it was butterflied. The steak was cooked to perfection and well presented.
And if you choose anything, go for the beef fat potatoes ($85). They're not like anything I've ever tasted before, they are layered like a dauphinoise and fried. Honestly I could just eat 10 portions of these and be happy.

I'm also adding a picture of the grilled asparagus and truffles ($145) from last time. The asparagus was super fresh and the truffle accompaniment didn't overpower the taste.

Everything was spot on, even though we were last to arrive and leave we never felt rushed, each course came when ready, there is nothing to fault and a bill of $1700 was extremely reasonable.
Our new favourite without a doubt and a welcome addition to the HK foodie scene. Just hope the landlords don't get greedy!!
