  • Fin is, quite possibly, the prettiest restaurant I've been to in the US (if you've been to restaurants in Hong Kong, you'll understand why I explicate on the fact that it's "IN THE US") The food is alright. But let's not kid ourselves - the selling point of Fin is NOT the food (ugh, yes, I hate myself for writing this since I consider myself to be somewhat of a "foodie" who RESPECTS food). I went during lunch hour which, in Chinese people language, means dim sum time. From all my previous experience, dim sum is something to be eaten at a gaudy/tacky restaurant where old men eat goose feet while reading the horse-racing section of Ming Pao. THAT'S authentic dim sum. And that's when you know that Fin is FAAAAAAAR from authentic. I mean, when was the last time you ate shumai at a place that looked like it was designed by Philippe Starck? Don't get me wrong - food is not horrendous. Of course, foodwise, I still prefer the "authentic" (i.e. greasy) Chinese fare over the B*sterdized $13 chow fun but, like I said, the food is not the star of the show with regards to Fin. And, in their defense, at least they are conscious of the fact that they are NOT authentic (they sell themselves off as "CONTEMPORARY" Chinese cuisine) - just the fact that they have sashimi and pad thai on the menu is proof that they're not trying to pass themselves off as being authentically Chinese. So yes, you'll enjoy the food but you probably won't remember it. But go anyways - go for the beautiful interior!! That's what the 4 stars are for - not for the food in particular, but for the restaurant itself!
