I don't have reliable current information about specific burger restaurants currently operating in Sai Ying Pun. Restaurant locations and availability change frequently. I'd recommend: - Checking Google Maps or OpenRice for "burger" near Sai Ying Pun for current options - Looking at recent reviews to confirm they're still open tonight - Checking opening hours before heading out This will give you accurate, up-to-date information for your visit.

The ribs are more like Chinese ribs than Texas ribs…everything else is pretty good A bit too much on the Salty side but $300 per pax Saturday Brunch is a good deal. You get one of everything! The seating is better than Central location.
