    Of the making peking ducks ive had in various countries, this is one of my least favorite as I found it too salty, no duck fragrance and meat texture was off. Furthermore the sauce was more a hoisin sauce than plum sauce. the lobster beancurd wrap was on the oily side Service was fine

    Returning customer's card with both hands is a basic manner of service, but the manager didn't. In my opinion, she does not understand service, nor basic service literacy. If your restaurant doesn't make any improvements, customer feedback will get worse and worse. And I have to mention a waiter who was standing beside our table. He is much better and I think he will become a good teacher to teach that manager how to serve. Thank you.

    Superb service. Friendly waiter and knowledgeable sommelier. Excellent Dim Sum and golden fried prawns. Main courses very good but not exceptional except for the vegetable fried rice and the Sze chuan chicken which were among the best I’ve had. The peppered Wayu beef was a little too fatty. Overall a brilliant evening. Will certainly go again

    I had bad experience with the restaurant. The service is slow. The food portion is small but the price is ridiculously expensive but the food quality doesn’t match the price at all. We ordered fried oysters but it cost £36 with only 4 oysters.

    Undoubtedly one of the best dim sum I've ever had. Pork cooked nicely and no beasty smell. Drinks are pricy though they didn't disappoint at all.

    Celebrating 50th birthday with family. Not impressed as one starter came late. Had to speak to the waiters 3 to 4 times that we have not received one of our stater ordered. Finally after 45 mins later it came. Funny enough other people there were getting the food promptly. Did not have a good experience.

    Excellent Cantonese Cuisine, impeccable, and presented in lovely surroundings. The service was good but dropped off over time. The restaurant is too warm. It’s very expensive but equally very very good. I would gladly return.

    Average food, which perhaps is fine. Below average sommelier (you should know how full a glass of wine should be -don’t keep pouring please). Card machine out of order (for AmEx only though -except they don’t dare say, they just expect you to use another card). Plenty of less pretentious yet more serious places to experience. Good bye.

    Overall the dining experience was great as usual, but the soup and the prawn dishe were quite salty. I would recommend ording individual dishes rather than from the set menu. The prices would be higher in the end but as least food freshness and the portions are guaranteed.

    The food and service were sub-par for the price. After being served it was difficult to get a waiter again to bring us more drinks. Then it was a wait to get our check. I won’t go back.

    Looks fab but is strange that we were led to our table via a movable screen in between two cash registers! Service a bit hit and miss - got the impression not enough staff or we were sometimes a bit forgotten as we had a semi private dining table for 6. Went for the set menu - dim sum and duck were really good but the remaining dishes were a bit bland and quite forgettable. For all the hype I will pass on revisiting - frankly very expensive for what was delivered - bit disappointed expecially as we were entertaining clients.

    Excellent fine dining Chinese restaurant. The service was very good and the waiting staff were knowledgeable and helpful with our menu choices. The food was outstanding but the rather expensive charge for many items would detract from fully enjoying what was on offer in the menu. This is our second time there and will definitely return.
