Went to Robuchon Macau for lunch with great expectations due to high ranking by Michelen Went away feeling a bit let down by the whole experience, not just by the food but also by the lacklusture service. It was a nice Sunday and the place was 80% full. Large party in the private function room as well. The restaurant itself looks tacky and eeriely dark. We did not feel comfortable at all.

It was a nice Sunday and the place was 80% full. Large party in the private function room as well. The restaurant itself looks tacky and eeriely dark. We did not feel comfortable at all.

Welcome food (fresh oyster) came before the bread. Those 2 items were quite good and I won't mention the bread as many people have high praise (which I agree).
Then, the 2 appentizers were served. The so-called foie gras(?) were loose thin pieces curled-up with accommpanied by other items. Poor to the extreme in both taste and presentation. The other appertizer crab roll with caviar was passable and no surprise.
We skipped the soup.
Both mains were good. In fact, the quail stuffed in goose liver was highlight. Delicious
The other main sea bass was OK but again, hard to do badly if fish is fresh and I would have expected some innovation.
The dessert trolley came. We tried 8 items which were represntative enough. Apart from one or two, most were just way too sweet.
Then came the coffee/tea. No petite fours. We were there till 2:30pm and did not see anyone got offered petite fours. A bad oversight or they decided to cut this item from lunch??
All in all, in my humble opinion, definitely not worth 3 stars. Many in HK would be better. I would not want to part with $400 for this lunch ($500 if including soup) when you can have better quality and experience for about the same amount in HK. No match for Pierre (I would say the best French in HK), Amber, Caprice or even St George at 1881 Heritage.
