Tsim Sha Tsui | A Low-Key Feast for Seafood Lovers

The lighting is dim but not oppressive, as if deliberately leaving the stage for the food. This place specializes in semi-all-you-can-eat seafood and wagyu beef, with reasonable prices, perfect for diners who want to enjoy their meal without too much noise. Chilled Seafood Platter: A Refreshing Start Oysters, jade whelks, blue mussels, and prawns are neatly and cleanly arranged. The oysters are especially outstanding—plump, sweet, with a hint of minerality, just a squeeze of lemon juice is enough. The other seafood is fresh as well, but the oysters steal the show, making you want to order more immediately. Charcoal-Grilled Mantis Shrimp: A Touch of Wine Aroma The mantis shrimp served that night had firm meat with a distinct charcoal aroma. The sweetness of Huadiao wine was just right, not overpowering. The shrimp roe was rich but in a moderate amount, making it just right without being greasy. Crab Meat and Crab Roe Rice Bowl: A Visual Delight Served covered with a transparent film, lifting it reveals crab meat and roe tumbling like a small landslide. Mixed well, every bite is rich with crab freshness. The taste is good, but if the rice were hotter, the texture would be even better. Grilled Crab Shell with Toast: A Rich Choice Crab roe mixed with crab meat spread on grilled toast, salty and rich. Suitable for those who like strong flavors, but it’s recommended to share as eating it alone might feel heavy. Wagyu Shabu Shabu: The Gentleness of Fat Kagoshima A5 wagyu, thinly sliced and cooked briefly, melts in your mouth. The broth is light, perfectly balancing the fat of the meat. The vegetables are fresh, and the overall pairing is well done. Skewer Platter: Winning with Charcoal Aroma Chicken cartilage, pork asparagus rolls, and mentaiko chicken wings are well-controlled in doneness, with a prominent charcoal aroma. However, the seasoning is conservative; it would be more exciting if bolder. Unlimited Refills: Oysters Take the Spotlight Hyogo oysters can be refilled, maintaining good freshness. Though not giant-sized, they are sweet and plump, making it easy to get your money’s worth. The free-flow sake and beer selection is basic but sufficient to accompany the meal. Environment and Service The decor is simple, seats are spacious and not cramped. The staff are friendly, quick to change plates and take additional orders, making the overall dining pace comfortable. Summary: Seafood as the Star, Wagyu as the Accent This "Shrimp and Crab Warriors Wagyu Feast" shines brightest with seafood, especially oysters and mantis shrimp. The wagyu and skewers are good but not the main attraction. Ideal for those who love seafood and want a relaxed, quality meal. 📍 **Oyster Yard** Shop A, 2/F, The Nate, 176 Nathan Road, Tsim Sha Tsui 💰 Average $758 per person (15% off during promotion) ⏳ 120 minutes dining time
