Mr Chow opened on Valentines Day 1968. Designed by Michael Chow, it remains one of the the most uniquely beautiful restaurants in London. The atmosphere is one of relaxed luxury with original works of art, lacquered walls and white marble floors. Mr Chow serves a combination of original,authentic Beijing recipes together with new innovative dishes, specialities such as Green Prawns, Ma Mignon and Mr Chow noodles were all created by our award winning chefs. Also on the menu is our superlative Beijing Duck and a variety of exciting vegetarian dishes. During the evening, as entertainment, a chef performs the skilful art of hand-pulled Beijing noodles. Known as an institution in London MR CHOW draws generations of the young and fashionable by serving consistently excellent food, prepared by executive chef John Wu and his team. "All of it impeccable, great, tasty, a triumph! That was a good meal to put it mildly" Michael Winner The Sunday Times.

    The food was good, but the service was very bad for the amount you are paying.. one hour wait for the main course!! I talked to them but their excuses was (out of staff) ..sorry but don’t take this number of reservations if you can’t stay on your standard service.

    I’ve eaten at both Mr Chow NYC restaurants multiple times. The nice food (and stupidly high cost) is the only consistent feature in the London restaurant. Chaotic entrance area, judging maitre-d and soulless upstairs (where 3 tables were filled, the rest empty) was what we got. Very poor. Avoid.

    I am absolutely surprised at the quality of the food! Almost inedible! We left the restaurant hungry. Plus there was no honesty about the minimum charge. أموت وأعرف الناس تمدحه وتحبه ليه! الله يكرم النعمه! وتراهم نصابين انتبهوا من سالفة الحد الادنى للسعر

    It needs more space in the place and the distance of the tables from each other because it is crowded with customers and the tables are very close, which causes inconvenience in sitting and leaving

    Mr. Chow is always a sure bet with food - always delicious. From a trendy and contemporary point of view, it used to be a cool and hip place to be, with fun and interesting guests. Today its sadly more of a boring place, with a very particular audience who spend 80% of their stay at the restaurant on their mobile phone. Hence the very quiet noise level in this rating. Waiters are charming and impeccable with kind service. I would still recommend the restaurant for food to a friend, but not to start a wild and fun night in the city. After dinner you would rather want to go to bed.......

    We have visited MR Chow on previous occasions and have been satisfied. This time soap we were really disappointed with the dining experience. Do not know if you changed chefs or if you only had a bad day. it was not worth the price in terms of the quality and flavors of what was served. the service was top notch so it was a shame for the overall experience. So therefore we will have a hard time recommending our friends a visit to Mr Chow as it also has an expensive price picture compared to what was served.

    Appalling . £364 for two for unequivocally the worst Chinese meal I’ve ever had . Terrible sticky mag packed glutinous sauce on everything. Starters 20 minutes apart , no apologies , just rubbish from start to finish. They should be ashamed of themselves . I’ve had some great dinners in this restaurant over the years and thought to return for a special night out . The only thing special about it was there was nothing special about it . It was disgusting , poorly presented , disgracefully overpriced , totally lacking in atmosphere, average service , pushy waiter trying to get me to order stuff we didn’t want and champagne we didn’t want and then the crowning glory of a laughable bill. To describe the place as a rip off would be very much low balling the scale of its decline . Don’t go till they apologise to the world and to China and to America for the worst food in London by many many miles. Shame . And shame on you Mr Chow . I can think of at least 30 people I know that have eaten there alongside myself at least once or twice a year and i hope they don’t have as poor a meal as we had

    The food was really nice love it . But the service , they were very rude in a good way. They think they are smart while they are very rude they pretend that they are very nice people but they are not !!!and they are very erases . Camper people will pay money for the service and for the food but the amount of money I spend on that restaurant it’s just because of the food and I recommend the food because it’s really delicious other than that if you do not change the attitude of your servant that will be big problem for the restaurant on the future because people they are not dumb and they understand everything .
