Great food. nice ambience. Value for money. The staff was also very friendly. Must visit for families , couples, groups. One of the places that make mid range food with great taste and fine dining experience
This place is located in Chinatown. You will be spoilt for choice if you are looking to eat Chinese in Chinatown. We somehow zeroed down on this place by the elimination rule. This place is radically Chinese. The ambience is cool and inviting. For beers, they have only tiger and Tsingtao. The waiters are friendly and forthcoming. As obvious it is, we started our food journey with dim-sums. Our other sides, chicken satay and pork belly were perfectly made. The spicy sauces added the right zing to the food. The Mains, the Singapore noodles and the prawns fried rice were wholesome and would easily suffice for 3 people. Overall it set us back by 75 pounds for 3 people with heavy eating and 2 rounds of beer. Overall a good place for authentic Chinese food.
If you like chinese food, then this is a place to visit in London! I couldnt stop eating and tasting items, everything was delicious with a HUGE variety on the menu.Staff are very experienced and friendly !
Horrible experience. I reserved a table for 9PM for birthday celebration with my sister visiting London but when I reached, they refused to acknowledge the reservation, despite showing them the call log on my phone. Avoid to embarrass yourself when you reach there!!!!
I was curious to try Orient London as when it used to be Jade Garden it was one of my favourite addresses for day time dim sum in Chinatown. I heard the cooks were mostly the same as old Jade Garden. I guess this must be one of the better places for dim sum because you need to take a number and queue. We only had a ten minute wait on a Sunday at lunchtime. They do provide menus and the tick box order form that you can fill out while you wait. The dim sum menu is more extensive than a lot of places. We did have to ask for soy sauce and vinegar after food started arriving. There was no julienned ginger in the black vinegar as is customary of more upmarket places. If you ask for chilli paste they bring both chilli oil and chilli paste.Har gau was of good quality in that the prawns were nice large chunks rather than mince. Not an exquisitely stretchy tight skin though. Xiao long bao, or soup dumplings were good, though the broth was not quite as flavorful as in upmarket and rather pricier Shikumen (off Chinatown).Turnip cakes were pleasant but did not contain the usual dried shrimp and shitake. Turnip puff pastry is an item you don’t see often and was quite nice. Savoury meat croquette were a lovely chewy texture. Fried sesame balls were nicely flavoured, being not too sweet. Pan fried spring onion pancake was on the greasy side. Actually, all of the fried dim sum were somewhat greasy.Service has improved since the old Jade Garden days. Though given the queue, we did feel a little rushed as soon as we had finished eating. They were already clearing the table as my companion was still finishing her last dim sum. They filled a takeaway box of leftovers for us.
Good service, good fresh food, great location near/on Leicester Square. Nice clean restaurant with good, busy atmosphere. Wine and beer available.
This place is at the start of china town and it looks very classy. However the rates arent that high and is mostly on the mid range. The service here is very attentive and make sure that you are properly taken care of. They know the menu well and provide a lot of insight on the food. I had their chicken main course with noodles, The dishes were cooked well and the chicken was tasty. However it was nothing out of the ordinary. I would recommend this place for a business meeting, Family get together if you are in the mood for Chinese foodVisit Again ? Probably not ! Though it was a decent place it didnt have the wow factor for me to visit again.Drool Factor ? The food was good but nothing drool worthy.Hole in the pocket ? Well not a big hole it is moderately priced.
