“Honbo was founded in 2017 with a focus on home-grown ingredients, from preservative-free potato milk buns made by a local artisanal baker to creative drinks at the shop. We rate the simple, no-frills menu and USDA Double Gold beef used to craft the juicy smash burgers.”
“With several members on Team Sassy as self-proclaimed Honbo lovers… you can expect everything at this grassroots burger restaurant to be sourced from the very best local spots, with juicy beef and perfectly crisped buns. The loaded cheese fries are the best in town!”
“Unlike a lot of beef burgers — which are overly salty and greasy — Honbo has taken another approach… a soft potato milk bun complementing the fillings and the beef patty, the Honbo burger has achieved a nice balance of meat and smoky flavours.”

“Honbo serves excellently executed good ol’ burgers that are made with quality ingredients… buttery, meaty and crusty burger patties, fluffy potato milk buns, no preservatives and MSG.”
“Quite an impressive burger… juicy beef patty which is made even better with the crispy bacon and cheese. Sandwiching its patties are house-made potato milk buns… from an exclusive recipe developed with renowned artisanal baker Eric Kayser.”
“Honbo gets many things right… six seared surfaces, alternating with cheese… stuffed between potato milk buns. That is very close to burger nirvana for me.”
“Each juicy stack is made from high-quality ingredients: freshly ground Wisconsin beef; pillowy housemade potato milk bun from a recipe by the renowned Eric Kayser; house-cured Japanese pickles; and specialty sauces.”
“Honbo is one of the best burgers in HK!” · “Surprised by how good the cheeseburger was even after delivery.” · “Really love Honbo for their lettuce bun!”
