Decent food, most service staff members were lovely, there were one or two that let the team down. Kong bao prawns, stirfried pea shoots and spicy dumplings were the highlight for me.
Poor food, poor service. food floating in oil greasy not healthy. Very bad experience. One of my guest was severe sick after an allergic reaction
The best dumplings in London. Everything so spicy and delicious. Chicken wings were so good. The group next to us had a huge hot pot and that looked amazing
Brilliant as ever. Looking forward to returning on Thursday. Crispy pig intestines are the best, gong bao chicken is great too. Favourite sichuan place in London
Great meal. Good service. Waiter told us when we ordered too much. V tasty. They have put prices up but that's the norm as food prices up
Delicious food, and quick service. Wait staff were polite but not friendly. The dumplings were amazing and the pulled pork was exceptional. Will definitely be coming back for more!
Good food. The restaurant was very busy for Monday night. But there is no delay on getting my food. Everything comes in at the right temperature. It shows that it is really good.
Such good food as always, but really noticeable how slow our food was and how much is going out the door to deliveroo orders. They need to prioritise customers in the restaurant otherwise people are going to end up unhappy
Really good hotpot, ideal for a cold winter day. Make sure if you are considering hotpot you let them know so you can get a table near a power socket.
Had hotpot there, was good! Nice selection of food and it was a massive platter. Staff were attentive and I have been there several times now.
Great food - good range of choice and a good value lunchtime menu. Staff were very helpful and friendly, including getting me a high chair for my daughter.
Great food and service. Will definitely go again.the cucumber dish was amazing as was the twice cooked pork.the waiters were very attentive and polite. Great evening.
Absolutely the best Szechuan food I have had (and I've been around the block a few times). Unlike a lot of other Szechuan restaurants where the food is unnecessarily oily, the food here achieved all the delicious taste (and more) without the excessive greasiness. There is of course some amount of oil (has to be there in Szechuan food), but the flavors and everything else shine through. Every single item we had was fantastic. Will DEFINITELY go back and most definitely recommend to others!
Delicious food, big portions, nicely presented, friendly service and atmosphere. Large menu, including superb hotpot. This is real Sichuan food at a good price and with no compromise. Will be back!
So much delicious food! Everything I’ve had here was delicious. Can’t wait to come me back again. This time we had the hotpot but I look forward to trying more re dishes from the main menu
A great restaurant with lots of amazing dishes to choose from in the traditional Sichuan style. Staff were attentive and the food was served at a good pace
We went for the hot pot and the food was amazing. If you run out of anything, they'll probably offer you more before you ask. Friendly staff, nice atmosphere and delicious food! Couldn't ask for more :-)
We had the all you can eat hot pot there. The ingredients were fresh and the soup is very nice. The service was very nice and the lady will come check if we needed topping up.
First time trying food from Sichuan. It was so delicious!! Loved the dumplings - favourite tried in London and the chilli oil takes them to next level. The staff were very friendly and efficient.
Good service, but the location is not very convenient. Surprised to see many people having dinner here till very late in the evening. Anyway I may still recommend it to friend ...
The food was delicious. The staff were very helpful with menu choices and recommendations and were incredibly attentive. We will definitely return as soon as possible :)
The food was awesome and all the staffs were very friendly too. My favourite dish was boiled fish in the hot sauce. My friends and I were all enjoying it a lot. Thanks :)
This is one of my favourite restaurants. The food is authentic sichuanese. I always have the gong bao prawns and the fried beans with pork mince. Other really good dishes include the lamb with cumin and the sliced beef in chilli oil. The service has always been really good, with the waiter able to recommend dishes to you if you're not sure what to order. the restaurant itself is not fancy, but it's perfectly pleasant.
We went in for hot pot. Was unlimited and was really tasty. Definitely do your research if you have never had hot pot before as the staff didn't give any direction. Thanks full we had a couple beside us who were pros. Will come back for the rest of their menu. Legit sichuan food!
Good Sichuan. Highlight of our order was stir fried pea shoots. I would definitely order that again. Fish fragrant aubergine was nice too, if a little sweet.
As ever the food and service were wonderful. The dried fried pig intestines always my favourite...Like gourmet pork scratchings. Gong bao chicken always great here too
We had the hot pot menu. The quality and variety of the food was great. Also the staff was very kind and friendly. It just annoyed me a little that the waiter started to make a personal conversation with us, as I wished for a more discreet and private dining.
Excellent food and service as always. Our favourite restaurant! Smacked cucumbers, fried beans with pork, boiled fish slice and the signature pork dumplings are some of our must-haves.
Food was tasty, prices were reasonable, service was ok, but they only take cash payments (no cards). Was there on a Sunday at lunchtime but it wasn't particularly crowded.
Amazing and not too over-powering food. Easy to find location. Friendly helpful staff. Reasonably priced for the amount you get. Would recommend to a try.
Great food and service with a good choice of vegetarian options for those who don't eat meat. Very reasonable pricing. It is quite lively so probably not a good choice for a quiet intimate meal but a really good atmosphere. Booking advised as it is not a particularly large restaurant.
We had the hotpot and it was a lot of food! We had a table just in front of the entrance and it was a very cold day. We would have preferred a table more inside but there was no free table next to a plug. We didn't understand why we couldn't pay by card because we book online... it was cash only. The food was good.
Excellent atmosphere and competent friendly service. Unique selection of Sichuan dishes not usually found at the "usual" i.e. Cantonese Chinese restaurant. Will certainly visit again!
Great food, great service. Twice cooked pork and tender beef were excellent as was the starter of dumplings. Only thing was that the Rice portions were a little small, so order a bit more of that.
The food was okay, as I'm Chinese I was expecting more, could be a little bit more authentic. The portion is on the smaller side also.
Excellent food and fast service! The best huiguoyu (twice cooked fish) in London. We were a party of 14 celebrating Chinese New Year, everyone feasted to their tummies delights!
awful. they asked to pay it by cash because I booked online. INSANE. Hotpot was so oily, all wasn't fresh. couldn't eat any meats and fishes-smells a lot-. was able to eat only radishes and shrimps, noodles. what is worse, it was £52.7 paid £60 by cash so I had to get £7.2 and some more coins but they only gave me £5.02. couldn't check this because i was in hurry and found out after I took the tube. so terrible and rubbish taste, waiters can't speak English at all. DO NOT GO HERE, PAID £55 FOR THIS HORRIBLE FOOD.
No frills restaurant, but the food is amazing. Be prepared to sit with other people as seating is set in rows. This visit took me back to days spent in china.
A relatively new Chinese restaurant close to Moorgate station. It was busy with a company's Xmas party there but not extremely loud. Good food and good service.
Very disappointing compared to our first visit 6 months ago. All the dishes we ordered (bashed cucumbers, Ma po tofu, boiled tender beef slices in a lip tingling sauce, dry fried green beans and Sichuan Folk twice cooked pork) were exceptionally oily, and although we deliberately ordered several dishes that should deliver a proper lip-numbing amount of Sichuan pepper, it was remarkably absent. The portions were also very small - even the rice came in tiny amounts - and there were no buns with the twice cooked pork. I really hope this was just a blip - maybe the chef was off or something. But I'm not sure we'll bother to make the long schlep back to find out, when there are several excellent Sichuan places in Soho. We have a taste for Sichuan food because we spend part of every year in China, but we honestly can't recommend this place on current form.
It was my second visit but this time I did not have the hotpot. The pork main dish I had was delicious, but a little oily.
Great food and friendly service - quickly served too which was great as a large group. Goes without saying at a Sichuanese restaurant but be prepared for very spicy food!
Ordered hotpot, but the only meat available on the day was tick beef. Soup was good but too much veggies and noodles on the initial plate.
We went for Lunch and had an a thoroughly enjoyable meal. The menu is varied and different from the usual Chinese menu. Staff were friendly and very helpful, especially on the menu. I would definitely visit again.
Really nice food! Really tasty and in good portions for all kind of tastes
Food was nice from what me and my friend tried, but for that price should come with some sides. but the dessert was a let down..and the price was a bit to high per main course £1.50 per main course dish off less would be good, and a bit more improve on the service.
Great food and value with some real stand out dishes! We loved the chilli squid and the braised aubergine. However service was a little bit slow.
Love this place, the food is excellent! And the staff are friendly and helpful - they give good advice on what and how much to order.
Chinese food tends to be underrated due to the atrocities offered as chinese take aways. This is proper, spicy, deeply savoury, real chinese food. We have eaten here three times and on all occassions have been the only european customers in a packed restaurant full of chinese customers. If you, like me, love authentic food, please go here, do not choose from the menu and tell your waiter to bring what he recommends. This is not fancy food, but gutsy, interesting real food. Please go.
