Crystal Lotus Restaurant Hong Kong Disneyland Review

During a recent trip to the Hong Kong Disneyland, I was invited to try out the Crystal Lotus Restaurant in the parking area at the Hong Kong Disneyland Hotel. Serving authentic Chinese cuisines, a 7-course Chinese meal was prepared for my partner and me, and we had no expectations of what was coming our way.

I mean, this is Disneyland, so our expectations were decently average, but when the food started coming our way, all we could say was wow. Totally out of our expectations; the effort, preparations, taste, and overall experience were excellent. I had never had such detailed Chinese cuisine in my entire life as I did here.

Coming from a multiracial country like Malaysia, I had my fair share of Chinese cuisines around the country, but here in Hong Kong Disneyland, this restaurant gave Chinese food a new twist.

Course by course, the element of surprise improved, and I was doubly surprised by how the chefs here used various methods to incorporate the Disney character Mickey Mouse into some of the dishes.

Our verdict was simple: If you are a Chinese food lover and want to try something unique when visiting Disneyland Hong Kong, you should make a reservation at the Crystal Lotus Restaurant, which is located at the Hong Kong Disneyland Hotel.

I have no regrets, taste-wise, as it supersedes your expectations. You can order À la carte or even by-course meals here. The restaurant’s ambience is also something to look at due to the mix of modern and contemporary Chinese designs.

The entire restaurant is decorated with 2238 lotuses. Look out for the amazing lotus chandelier hanging in the back dining area. A beautifully designed bar is also available for cocktails or other drinks.

Conclusion

This is my second visit to the theme park in just five years, and the main reason I came back again was to see some of Hong Kong Disneyland’s new rides and attractions. The first time I visited, I stayed in the city of Hong Kong, while this time around, we stayed at Disney’s Hollywood Hotel in the park itself.

If you have a family and want an experience to remember, I recommend you stay at any of the Disneyland Hotels in Hong Kong. I hope you enjoyed my Crystal Lotus Restaurant Hong Kong Disneyland review, and I would love to hear any feedback from you.
