    The variety and choice on the asiatic cuisine is quite interesting, it's cool how they sort the menu by country. Food is quite decent if you know what to pick. They have a lunch menu :)

    Incredible interior, reminiscent of Thailand and Vietnam. Huge menu, with plenty for vegans and vegetarians. The Pad Thai was excellent.

    New menu allows vegans to sway almost any meat on any dish with protein-rich tofu. Amazing

    Interesting concept. Their menu has quite a variety of different Asian cuisines at good prices. The interiors are really cool. And they give 25% off you're a student! 👍

    Pretty authentic. Good option if you want to mix and match between Thai, Malay etc. Have the Char Kway Teow. Full review on Scoff London: http://scofflondon.com/restaurants/east-street-restaurant-w1/

    Great place! The decor plunged you in a honk kong style urban environment. Love it! Good food and reasonable prices. (Bookings available for big groups only)

    Really nice place! I just had a meal costing 9 pounds with noodles and fresh rice rolls. Both really tasty! I will definitely come again..

    I might not know how authentic but I love thinking of food as a pan-continent concept. This place gives you a nice view of Asia as a whole.

    The Bo Luc Lac was delicious. Love the decor. With the portion sizes were a bit bigger and the staff were a bit friendlier though. Still we will be back!

    Ginger creme brulee is to die for! Thick, hot ginger caramel and a cold confection beneath.

    They do an express menu 12-7pm daily - £7.95 for 2 courses. Corn fritters and Daging Lembu Goreng are delicious! http://www.eaststreetrestaurant.com/assets/pdf/MENU-express.pdf

    A lot more interesting than Wagamama in terms of its menu and vibe. I was not expecting for authentic Asian food but I was impressed by what they served. Worth give it a go.

    Average food for a reasonable price but it's a good alternative for a quick meal around the area. Yaki Udon (pictured) was a little bland and oily. Good service.

    Interesting concept and decor, the way they have tried to recreate the feel of a hawker centre. The food is very average though - and if you've tasted the authentic stuff, very disappointing.

    The Vietnamese Bo Luc Lac does not "lac" in taste. It's a wok-fried rump & oyster sauce number known as "shaking beef." Read more

    I know this is not best place to order cocktails but my Old fashioned was very disappointing. They serve pretty good Pad Thai though.

    The place is nice the menu looks good. I took a Pho and it was okay but not a proper Pho, and it's like a wagamama for East Asia look like, smell like but it's far from it

    They have the two course sign at the front of the shop on a saturday afternoon. However, it's not actually available over the weekend.
