Don?t get tricked by the locals who have never had real Chinese food. Me and my daughter came as tourists who were staying in the area to see London and were craving some Chinese style food after days of the same English hotel food. Their entrance was hard to find but it wasn?t really a big deal. Once we were inside we asked to sit by the window since there were only about 3 groups in the room so it was fairly empty. They denied us saying ?it would take too long to clean the other tables for us and this one was fine?. Even though those tables were already set and prepared. Anyways once the food came we were disappointed, we ordered the eggplant chicken hotpot and immediately it was apparent that they didn?t cook the food in the sauce, only poured it on top because once u bit into the chicken and the sauce was gone, it just tasted like plain meat. No flavor at all. The chicken was also not well cooked, it was tough and tasted like a refrigerator. We also had to ask for water, and when we asked if we could have it warm since it was a cold day they said they would ?have to charge us a pound per person?. Never been to a place that charges different prices for cold vs hot water. We spent 37£ for two dishes and it was the worst Chinese food we have ever had. Do not come here just spend the money at co-op.

We come here for brunch ever month. The food itself are excellent. I would say probably one of the best dim sum places in London. The service is below the average but it is typical Cantonese style. The down side is the waiting time. It could last 90 minutes easily if you arrive late on a Sunday. And the parking is not free. £3.15 for two hours. The view is quite good. The LCY airport is just in front of you and you can see all airplanes taking off.Parking: £3.15 for two hours

I, personally, would not recommend however it?s worth noting there were lots of Chinese people in here, which is normally always a good sign.First off, I booked a table for 12 of us on Boxing Day for my dads birthday. We always go to a Chinese on 26th Dec but our usual (Royal China) was closed. I booked via telephone and on arrival was told they have no recollection of my booking and they demanded a confirmation email - no one took my email address when I booked. They eventually got us seated but the table wasn?t really big enough for all of us and the lazy Susan was lopsided (which later caused a drink to be spilled).Portions were small. Ordered second plate of satay chicken but wasn?t provided with a second bowl of satay sauce. Ribs were tough and almost inedible. Seaweed came out after we?d finished all the other starters. Pancakes for shredded duck were undercooked and all stuck together, they also charged us £1.80 for another batch requested.Most of the mains were cold and just mediocre. The sizzling pepper beef and honey roasted pork were the only dishes hot and they were nice. Service was ok, our waitress was very pleasant. Drinks took ages to come each time.We won?t be back unfortunately.Kid-friendliness: Child friendly and provided highchair

Lovely place which is a total shock when you walk into what is a fairly plain building and expectations are then deflated.Absolutely amazing food and every time we have been here. Service is good considering how busy they are.Can?t fault it at all ??

In town for a convention from America. They accepted a reservation for 2 on a weekend for 8pm. Arrived a little late as the entrance was a bit difficult to find, but it was not an issue. Seated quickly and order was taken promptly. Service was fine. The view was nice.But we were charged for still water while others around us got served without charge from a pitcher. Sweet and sour chicken was fine, but the chicken noodles were incredibly burnt. At first I thought the dark brown was just due to a sauce but it was incredibly acrid and smelt burnt. And yet the onions were raw. Very sub par and we did not happily part with our money for this meal. Will not return for dinner service.

A good restaurant is not only about Quality of the food and the atmosphere. This place have a nice view of the city airport, the foods were ok ( like the other Chinese restaurants in China town - MSG). After all the service was ok too until one of the waiter didn?t know we understand cantonese and he was Gossiping about us to the next table and when I confronted him he denied. I reported to the manage right away that she should Educate their staffs that it is not smart to talk about their customers like that and think they could not understand.

Busy dim-sum place. Nice food fair price. No free parking which is a down side.

Beautifully presented and tasting food. Staying at the Double Tree it was only a short walk. We visited early on a Friday. Around 4pm and the restaurant was quiet but was getting busy when we left. We had a set menu at £35 each with an addition. Food was outstanding (and so much) plenty for 2 with a lovely

A cut above Chinatown . Everything you would want for a dum sum restaurant... got the all the usual classics and as well as some interesting crab dim sum options. They also do a cracking lobster noodle platter . And views are fantastic if you like

Service was disorganized and kinda rude. Food was mediocre. 12% service fee is added to every meal. When you walk in, they give you a numbered ticket but if you get out of the way from their cramped waiting area, they will skip you. The bottled beer was also expired sadly.

The staff were so rude and unwelcoming. The ?fried? rice was boiled and had no flavour.To top it off we couldn?t even buy sauce on the side to give it flavour. The sweet corn soup was so inedible it tasted like boiled sweet corn water. I would give it 0 stars if there was an option.

Lovely food, but what a shame let down by rude staff! Don?t they have a manager to keep an eye on the staff!
