Fireside Hong Kong

Fireside sits on the fifth floor of the H Code building on Pottinger Street. It is a five-minute walk from the Man Mo Temple and the rest of the Central district’s steep, stone-staircase thoroughfares.

The restaurant holds the number 69 spot on the 2024 World’s 101 Best Steak Restaurants list. While many kitchens in this part of Hong Kong rely on prestige labels to command attention, Fireside keeps the focus on its modern Asian fusion menu. It is dressier than the chaotic bars of nearby Lan Kwai Fong, yet it avoids the stiff, hushed tone common to high-end dining rooms in the city. The room runs smart, providing a measured transition from the vertical grind of the street below, making it a better choice than the cramped bistros lining the district’s mid-levels.
