Amigo (traditional Chinese: 雅谷餐廳) is a French restaurant at 79A Wong Nai Chung Road, Happy Valley, Hong Kong. It is famous for its lavish furnishings and wonderful cuisine, all created by its Hong Kong owner Yeung Wing Chung (楊永松) and his staff.

The first Amigo Restaurant opened in Causeway Bay in the middle of the 1967 riots. It survived that traumatic time and went on to be wildly successful within its first year of operation. It then bought its own premises at Amigo Mansion in Happy Valley in 1976. The mansion and the restaurant were designed and built together.

Yeung spared no expense in decorating the restaurant. He wanted his restaurant to reflect warmth and pleasure, to be welcoming, a calm and gracious refuge from the wild pace of the city around it.

Wood from the Philippines, ceramic tiles from Italy, fabrics from France and paintings by Russell Flint can be found in the restaurant.
