My all-time favourite Chinese restaurant in London. Hands down the best xiao long bao in town. Green beans with minced pork are wonderful too. Don't be afraid of the queue. It moves quickly.
LilahDecember 16, 2015This place is delicious! Try their pork soup dumplings, spicy tofu, aubergine. Surprised there are mediocre reviews here, reviews are great everywhere else and food, service and cleanliness are A+.Upvoted Sep 7
Joe LeeDecember 22, 2015Not quite a proper dim sum place as pointed out in four sq. Really good dumplings and value. Usuall asian like special fried rice, singapore, ho fun /flat white noodles.Some pretty good hotpot as well
Echo HuDecember 11, 2016You should order xiaolongbao, it's definitely the best I had in Europe !!!! So juicy so tasty so good! Just be careful it's hot inside.
Géraldine MullerMay 22, 2022The dumplings are really good. Big portions, lot of vegetables on the side. You will most probably have to queue. Really liked if. Fair price for London.
Constance | @croostifoodiNovember 4, 2015You will need to queue but it's moving fast. Get the xiao long bao, beef ho fun good too! Good quality of food overall. Beware of the sticky tables.
Tanvi DewanMarch 24, 2015One of the best places for Shanghai dumplings/xiaolongbao in Chinatown! Try the giant seafood dumplings-messy but well worth it!
Michael F. ForniAugust 1, 2015The chicken spicy dumpling in soup (broth) are pretty spicy. May be a little too much for non spicy lovers like me.
Ad ToMay 18, 2017After a quick stroll through china town they were the cheapest dumplings I came across. Good variety at £6 per plate. More chilli!- Michael F. ForniAugust 1, 2015The beef in Satay sauce with pepper and other herbs is delicious. (We had white rice aside)
- SpirishApril 19, 2014Lovely dim sum, even at dinner time. Great setting and ok service. The soft shell crab is to die for too
Federica De DominicisOctober 12, 2014Delicious food freshly made, not too spicy and flavourful! The portions are generous, be careful ordering.
Kristýna SpáčilováNovember 19, 2017We have been here a couple of times and it was always great but today ... very disappointing. We had 3 different dumplings and one regular noodles and everything was extremely oily.
Mick McLoghlinDecember 10, 2016Who knew salt &a pepper 'tofu' could be so delicious. A-MAZE! Dumps also best in China town.
Izabela CorrêaAugust 5, 2013The veggie dumplings are superb! Portions are of good size, even the ones to share, so consider going slow! Enjoy! :)
Magdalena MrázkováJuly 7, 2016The interiour is full of colourful flickering dragons and staff that for some reason keep running back and forth...the dumplings are good but not overwhelming
Awesome front window entertainment watch them make handmade dumplings and noodles yum great service not normal of Chinatown!
Paula PVSeptember 19, 2015Do a favor for yourself NEVER come this place! I mean it. Disgusting. Horrible. Please, dont come! Prefer eat nothing. If you are in the are and want dim sum go Dumpling's Legend. TRUST ME IN THIS ONE
Patrick O'MalleySeptember 17, 2011Half duck is perfect starter for three. But chicken in yellow bean sauce is overpoweringly sweet. Singapore noodle a good choice.
Shruti Mathur DesaiAugust 3, 2013I guess it was our mistake ordering Sichuan food from a place with "Beijing" in its name. The Xiao Long Bao were good, the "spicy" beef was not spicy and tasted like sweet and sour. Disappointed.
Eka VegaAugust 31, 2021Not impressed with the food, they charge 0.10p for plastic bag for kate away, also staff brought me the bill and later asked to pay while I was still drinking tea (place wasn’t closing)
Sharlene JusteSeptember 5, 2013The soup dumplings aren't as soupy as I expected. The dim sum platter is tasty , but small.
Katie FramptonMarch 20, 2014The food was good, but the service was awful. The sever was very rude, our dumplings came out 10 minutes after our main dishes, and we had to ask 3x for the bill. Won't be coming back.
Costas LazaridesJanuary 26, 2014The dim sum dough is terribly thick and tasteless and your Kung Po chicken smells of fish. Also, aren't you supposed to ask if I've finished before you remove the plates from the table?
