New Japanese Buffet Giant Opens in Kwun Tong APM with $288 Unlimited Durian and Sea Urchin

Popular all-you-can-eat brand Gokudaiinsai launches its latest outpost in East Kowloon, offering a limited-time grand opening discount of $20 off per person on premium dinner sets.

Hong Kong’s beloved Japanese buffet chain Gokudaiinsai (極大瀛喜) has officially opened a new branch in the heart of Kwun Tong, taking over a prime location at APM shopping mall. The restaurant, situated on the fifth floor of Millennium City 5, targets both local office workers seeking after-work dining and students looking for a convenient weekend feast. To celebrate the launch, the brand is rolling out a special promotion through the end of July: diners who order the upgraded B套餐 during dinner hours will receive an instant $20 discount per person, bringing the price down to as low as $338 per head.

Two Tiers of Unlimited Indulgence

The new outlet offers two clear pricing levels to suit different budgets and appetites.

A套餐 – The Value Choice (from $288)

  • Grilled beef tongue
  • Salmon sashimi

What This Means for East Kowloon Diners

The opening of Gokudaiinsai in Kwun Tong fills a noticeable gap in the area’s all-you-can-eat scene. With its direct MTR access and central location, the restaurant is poised to become a go-to spot for group gatherings, birthday celebrations, and casual business meals. The limited-time $20 discount, combined with the introduction of creative new dishes, makes this an especially attractive option for those who want premium ingredients without breaking the bank.

For anyone planning a visit, booking ahead is strongly recommended, especially during peak dinner hours. The promotion runs only until late July, so early reservations are key to securing the best deal.
