  “This is an absolutely superb Chinese restaurant. The quality of the food is outstanding. The service is absolutely exemplary and the place is spotlessly clean. It could be very tricky to find a fabulous Chinese restaurant, but here is one. Enjoy.”

  “This restaurant does a fantastic boneless roast duck on rice (and other roast meats) and is worth a detour for this speciality which is far nicer than some of the roast duck I’ve been unfortunate to have in China Town. It’s also good value at under £15 a portion. The staff are very friendly, the interior is calm and they offer a long menu of other dishes so there lots and lots of choice.”

  “Good tasty food including the duck & rice. Staff are sombre & one occasion were shouting at the diners & telling them to eat what had been served to them & then the diners took turns to shout at each other! Entertaining & hilarious? After which a service added on the bill was not paid which led to more arguments with the Chinese staff! Parking is a problem. 27.3.22 Tasty food served by friendly & helpful staff in a nice atmosphere. 26.2.24 Tasty food with rocketing prices served in a clean environment by friendly staff. 10.6.25 Tasty soup, honey prawns , garlic chilli 🌶 fried rice , pat choi , mixed meat with ho-fun noodles served by friendly staff in a clean environment. 21.9.25 Tasty soups , honey prawns, duck, pat choi & egg fried rice served by friendly staff in a clean environment. Parking is a problem.”

  “I recently dined at the Green Cottage in Swiss Cottage and had a wonderful experience. The service was top-notch and truly impeccable. The staff were attentive, ensuring my jasmine tea pot was refilled promptly without me having to ask. They also cleaned the table between courses, which I greatly appreciated as I value cleanliness.The food was delicious. I particularly enjoyed the prawn dumplings, roast duck, and prawns with seasonal vegetables, all of which had lovely flavors. However, I was a bit disappointed with the barbecued meats. The fragrance was not as pleasing as I had hoped, which was a letdown. Despite this, the overall experience was excellent. The service and most of the dishes were outstanding. I would highly recommend Green Cottage and will definitely visit again.”

  “15 of us went early on Sunday and we were able to have two tables upstairs. The food was great and authentic Cantonese cooking. It wasn’t too salty and I don’t feel very thirsty either after the meal like many other Chinese restaurants. Highly recommended!!”

  “This was the second time we have been here and it was as good as the first time; I must say is the best chinese restaurant I have been. Great food and fantastic customer service. I came with 3 other friends and we all agreed, everything was just delicious.”

  “After many happy years of eating at our favourite Chinese restaurant in Queensway we were forced to look for a replacement after it shut down years ago. We looked and tried many different places but none could replace the quality and service of our old favourite until we accidentally stumbled across this delightful place on Finchley Road. I don't usually tend to give 5★ reviews at all as there is almost certainly always room for improvement, but not only did we find the food most agreeable to our fairly picky palate the service we receive during our first visit was the best ever and rest assured I've been to may Chinese restaurant over the years. Seriously the staff at Green Cottage deserve a lot of praise and it is due to their constant attention to detail and pleasant service during our visit (even re-seating us when a better & more appropriate table became available!) that I decided to award Green Cottage my first ever 5★ review. Well done, you deserve it judging from by our first experience. Please keep doing what you did and you will see us coming back for many years to come. OK now a word about the food. It was all very tasty and very much to our liking. If anything it all had a slightly healthier feel to it compared to other Chinese restaurants, everything seemed lighter and none of the dishes were greasy in any way whatsoever. Perhaps the plum sauce served with the crispy duck & pancakes could have been slightly richer, but then again the way it came was fine and in line with the rest of the restaurants offerings. There was three of us who visited for a birthday celebration (we didn't mention this by the way in case you are wondering) and we all agreed that the food was super tasty and the service second to none. To top it all the price was very reasonable for what we received and I can recommend this Chinese restaurant highly to anyone looking for one in the North West London area or beyond. For us this Chinese restaurants now sets the benchmark by which we will judge all others.”
