I've been to Maxim's at least 10x's since moving to Hong Kong four years ago. It is "the" place to recommend for dim sum when tourists and work colleagues are in town. It's one of the few places in HK that still have the push cart trolleys (though you can also try Lin Heung, but the atmosphere might be a bit much for some people).

I've been to Maxim's at least 10x's since moving to Hong Kong four years ago. It is "the" place to recommend for dim sum when tourists and work colleagues are in town. It's one of the few places in HK that still have the push cart trolleys (though you can also try Lin Heung, but the atmosphere might be a bit much for some people). Maxim's underwent a major renovation in 2010 and with computerized screen trolleys, bigger chandeliers and a softening of the garish chinese decorations came an increase in prices and unfortunately, a decrease in quality that seems to be taking place in stages each time we've visited since then. That being said, I still think it is one of the better places for dim sum in Central and I will still return. Although the wait always seems long, they keep the line moving at a brisk pace. Particularly if you are there with a smaller party (4 or less), you shouldn't have to wait any more than 20mins and this time was no exception.-sweet crust char siu bao - how can you not like this dish? by the time it gets to your table, it's not very hot and it could be filled with a bit more pork, but the dough is soft and the top is sugary sweet.
-chiu chow dumplings - these are a favorite of mine - i love the nuts mixed in with the veggies. thin skinned and stuffed full.
-chicken feet - i never touch these but my boyfriend enjoys them. he said they were average and a bit fattier than usual.
-ham shui gock (deep fried glutinous rice stuffed with pork) - i love these and order them whenever they have them at dim sum restaurants. not as sweet as they are at some places, but not bad.
-seen chock guen (steamed bean curd rolls stuffed with pork/prawns/veggies) - these are also a favorite of mine that i always order for dim sum. these were a bit average compared to other places, but not too bad.
