  “Royal china franchise is go to for Cantonese food. This was my first time at the Baker Street location. It was incredibly busy when I went and service was a little slow. When my food arrived I received the wrong order then had to wait for it to be fixed but despite all this the food was tasty and fresh. The dim sum was delicious. I found prices really great for everything that we had (much better than their Canary Wharf branch) I will definitely recommend & return.”

  “I have come to Royal China several times now but I have to say that today was the worst experience I had… The past few times I visited I noticed that the food quality has dropped significantly but today even the service was horrible. The food took over 20 min to get to the table and after finishing the starter it took additional 10 min for food to arrive again and this was only after asking… The server said that this was the British way? It was a special occasion and my family and I left quite disappointed with the lack of service and food quality. When left the servers didn’t even say goodbye and did not acknowledge the customer leaving. It wasn’t even crowded I mean come on… I would definitely not be returning any time soon. I’m not sure about what happened to the restaurant but compared to my visits previously it was a disappointing experience. I hope the service and food quality improves. Note to manager: Please teach servers to be friendly and at least acknowledge the customers?”

  “Dim sum restaurant that doesn’t mention anywhere that they stop serving dim sum at 430pm. (Apparently commonly known) unfortunately not to me. Staff told me if I’m not happy I can leave (fair) Food was above average for the price. Beef and chicken dishes were really good. Dim sum platter (only option for dim sum) was great. Would recommend the soup dumplings for 23£. The point is that IF the restaurant is labelled online that it’s a Dim Sum restaurant then better mention it somewhere that you don’t serve it the whole day.”

  “We had a good experience for a weekend lunch. Saturday lunch was walk-in only (can only book dinners) but glad we got a table. Booster seats for kids available. Changing for babies available. Felt roomier than the Canary Wharf branch which is a plus. Food was easy to order, and we did not wait long. Peking duck was delicious, same with egg tofu pork meat stew. Overall it was a good meal, we did not feel rushed, portions were plenty.”

  “Amazing experience. Friendly and attentive service. Walked in on a busy Saturday night with no reservation and they accommodated for us straight away. Delicious food. Unfortunately only managed to take two photos. Highly recommend!”

  “This is a dim sum style restaurant that is Michelin rated. The decorations and vibe of the place is contemporary with a Chinese flare. The dim sum is made to order so they are hot, tasty, and pretty good. Overall, we had a nice experience here.”

  “We were lucky to get a table without booking on a Fri night. Roast duck was good. Juicy and tender. Crispy duck was ok but not the best. Char siew was ok Service was prompt and efficient. Our corner was a little stuffy (we were there during london’s May heatwave). There was a fan which helped a lot but meant that some members of our party had to contend with wind constantly blowing at them.”

  “We were recently in London and heard about this place. Decided to pop in slightly earlier than opening time on a Saturday. There was already a queue forming at least half an hour before opening time. Thankfully the restaurant is pretty big, hence can fit quite a lot of the people already in the queue. We got our table and was promptly served by a lady who was curt, quick and efficient. We have already had some breakfast prior to this hence, we were not as hungry but we went for their roast duck, some fried and steamed dim sums and hot Chinese tea to go along with the meal. We would have ordered more if we could but alas, our tummies were still full from the morning. Food was delicious, fresh and appetizing. Service was prompt and quick. Hope to be back again soon to enjoy more of the dishes here.”

  “Dim Sum Restaurant I would not expect modern dim sum restaurants would have staff pushing trolleys around the tables any more. As the trolley are replaced by something called 'dim sum note'. Simply tick the items on the note with the given pen, then hand it to the staff. All done. It was a shock that this restaurant has none of the above. Not even has a QR code for customers to scan and order in the web. Therefore making orders become messy for both the customers and staff. The dim sum tasted okay, not a wow. The restaurant's special was a bit let down. Just a rice dumpling with very little bits of meat wrapped inside a lotus leaf. The The environment was clean and quiet.”

  “Might be the best dim sum place I’ve been to in London. Everything was amazing, even the ones I don’t normally get or like as much. And the main dishes are just wonderful! I truly recommend this place to everyone who wants authentic Cantonese food! I’d say way better than hakkasan and it’s kind…”
