Beijing Dumpling in City of London, Westminster

Everytime we go to London, we Always eat in here! We love the food. Highly recommend 👌

Glad we waited before entering. The crispy duck was spot on. 👌 All dishes tasted fresh and you can taste the ingredients. Loved the experience. Usually a queue, but that's for a good reason. My good place for Chinese food.

Amazing food... Loved it. Want to visit again

Very good food ! The service is so so ! They are rude ! When you ask a question about the menu, they'll reply with another question or they are sarcastic! But the food is 5 stars !!

Dumplings were very good! Very friendly and helpful! A little more expensive than maybe somewhere else but it is Chinatown. Highly Recommended. The dishes we had were all very 👍

Fresh and generous food portions. Quick and nice service. Highly recommend.

The dumpling wrappers are a bit thick, but overall they are delicious.

Everything is very rich. Large amount. Very nice 😊

Good Chinese food at reasonable prices..

They stel from me 20£ Never com agan.

This dumpling restaurant seemed like a popular place with customers queuing up most of the day. Attended there for a late lunch and was greeted by friendly staff. Ordered spicy Xiaolongbao and fried dumplings. However, the wrappings of both dishes were way too thick than usual. Quite disappointed by that.

The overall atmosphere of this place? Wow. It feels like you’re not in London (in a good way). The food? Incredible. I loved the options. Definitely coming here again. For further improvement, I’d like for staff to explain more regarding halal options as it was not very clear. Otherwise, excellent.

Had lots of fresh dumplings made in front of me. Loved every bite. Highly recommended.

We waited 20 minutes and the attendant always told us after 5 minutes that he would open the lower floor in a second. We were 2 adults and 2 children. While we were standing outside, the attendant let 8 people in (they always went 2 at a time). When I asked why we couldn't, she said that there were 4 of us. When she let another couple go, we left after 25 minutes. You have lost customers. 👎

Restaurant in London's Chinatown that does not disappoint. We went there because of the good reviews and there was indeed a line to get in, but not much (and it was Sunday at noon). The waiters treated us great and the food was delicious, everything very authentic (the dumplings, the duck, the noodles... everything was spectacular). Both the rooms and the toilets are very clean. I can only say good things, the whole family left delighted with the experience!!

An excellent restaurant. If you love dumplings, this is the restaurant of your dreams. The queue in front says everything you need to know. Staff is attentive and dumplings are served fast. Can only recommend!

The smell of the restaurant is not nice, the pork xiao long bao was a disappointment. The wrapper is so thick and doesn’t have soup. The laksa is ok, the fried rice is salty as the fried squid. I wouldn’t recommend.

Amazing spot. Queues at the door but we were seated quickly and served even faster. The spicy pork dumplings are a must have!

We ordered half of a Peking Duck but it came out shredded and very dried. It was disappointed as the Peking Duck dish is usually served as chopped pieces with the crispy skin and the meat part come intact in one piece. Both hand pulled noodles and the steamed pork dumplings were hard and plain. This place is definitely for non-Chinese tourists who aren’t familiar with Chinese dishes.

The best dumplings in London! I discovered this restaurant in September 2023, and I returned there in February 2024, during another weekend in the capital. A real gem. There is a bit of a queue (mark of success) but it's worth the wait. Above all, the service is very fast and the room is large.

Friendly staff, homey Chinese food.

Good service and setting. But the food is anything but tasty. Extremely bland, all the Xia Long Baos taste the same. The fried Indonesian rice is bland - if that is even possible.

A nice Chinese restaurant to get Xia Long Bao.

uncourteous welcome. the order is taken quickly, you barely have time to understand the menu. came to eat, very good rice. Shrimp soups with only 2 shrimps I find limited. very spicy coconut chicken curry and it is not indicated. no milk or yogurt to soothe the palate. we answer you coldly (almost the end of service time but hey) with no desire for understanding. not great we won't come back.

Food is nice but I almost didn’t get served because I was a single woman dining alone. They did not find me worth the effort, and if I wouldn’t have complained they would have kicked me out. It’s 2024 women don’t need to be accompanied to dinner anymore!

Very average! Doesn't meet our Asian's expectation 🤦🏻‍♂️

Not the nicest restaurant in Soho, but the food is great! Best offer of dumplings I have ever seen! The only negative note, you can't book in advance but need to queue outside, normally within 30' they will assign you a table.

We had a great dinner here tonight! The service was great and the food was even better. We ordered the Xiao Long Bao dumplings, chicken dry fried noodles, pan fried pork dumplings, and pork and veg dumplings in soup. We didn’t really like the pork and veg dumplings, but loved everything else! In fact we ordered a second order of the Xiao Long Bao dumplings and chicken dry fried noodles because they were so good.

Decent food for a normal price. Got the pork and seafood soup dumplings which were alright. Tasted good, but the wrapping was a bit thick and there wasn’t much soup filling. The fried eggplant and cucumbers were ok, as was the Taiwanese chicken. Overall, the restaurant was clean though and the food came out at a pretty good speed! Haven’t had much of the other London Chinatown restaurants so I can’t really compare. Otherwise, if you’re craving some Chinese food, this isn’t a bad pick! 🙂

Nice food , there was a big queue at 10,30pm but we had a party of 8 and they accomdated us nicely.

The seafood stir-fried noodles, seafood fried rice, xiaolongbao, and crispy aromatic duck were all delicious! ! ! I think it will suit Japanese tastes!

Very good value for money I recommend the pork Dumplings

The location and the interior was okay. The food quality was very diverse. The chicken was obviously old. We almost could not eat it. This is a No-Go... (1/5) The beef was good. (4/5) The soup was okay. (3/5) I do not know why this restaurant has such a good rating. We would not come again to this place, since one should be able to eat everything that is delivered to the table. Which war not the case in this restaurant.

The vegetable dumping were flavourless, the soft shell crack was like an overcooked fish cake that was too salty and oily and the pork dumplings were very average with dry filling. The duck pancakes were nice and so were the courgette croquettes (although very oily). The service was shockingly bad. The waiters were rude, aggressive and impatient. When I asked to sit on the ground floor rather than in the basement, the waiter got quite aggressive, would not provide me with much information and told me to wait outside in the cold. Table service was also rushed, and the waiters were rude and impatient. The atmosphere of the restaurant itself was pleasant with the wood panelling to interior however nothing particularly special.

Simply some of the best food I've ever eaten in my life and for a phenomenal price. Very friendly staff and not too long wait time.

Food was amazing, we ordered 2 different noodles and a long bao. Food was good, came in right temperature but the staff was completely unfriendly and I don’t know why they just don’t smile at you. Very poor service. Of course food covers the service part. But service is also a key factor.

One of the best chinese food in town. Very authentic!

Incredible dumplings! We will come back as often as we can. Highly recommended.

Had a family lunch that was absolutely delightfully. Service is prompt, food is excellent and we paid less than 100 quid for 4 of us (and actually had one take away dish as well). Make sure you book in advance or prepared to queue.

Excellent Chinese cuisine. Really very good.

Everything was so tasty and the atmosphere and service are really comfy and have a legit Chinese vibe

Delicious dumplings - I recommend. Chicken soup is not my taste. Very sticky

Very good dumplings in ChinaTown, waiting in line is worth it!

A quality soup dumpling should have thin skin and flavorful soup inside, but unfortunately, neither were present in the dumplings from this shop. The skin was thick, and the pork mince inside was dry. Frankly, if this is the standard offered in Asia, I doubt the shop would survive long there. I hope my experience was just bad luck and not indicative of their usual quality. As for the noodles, they were unrecognizable compared to what I know from Chinese cuisine. Overall, the food was disappointing, the service lacking, and to top it off, there was a service charge. I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone I know.

Have been here few times in recent weeks to notice the food is not consistent. The chicken arrived room temperature instead of hot which means it was already sitting there before we got it. It didn’t look fresh either. The table next to us got the same thing after seeing ours and theirs was sizzling hot with steam coming off. Staff is rude too (some older ladies don’t talk to you nicely when you’ve a question)

Food was really good and in good price! But service was poor and the staff was running up and down, with no reason, making you nervous.

Good atmosphere in the restaurant,the food was great could be more spicy on the specifically spicy dishes.4 portions of egg fried rice came in one bowl which was good since it is better that 4 separate bowls of egg fried rice.

The dumplings I had here for lunch on New Year's Eve were average. The roast duck is okay, and comes with noodles, green onions, and cucumber strips. Fortunately the price is not expensive

Value for money: 3/5 Service: 2/5 Qualify: 3/5 Atmosphere: 3/5 Selection: 4/5 15/25 Went Saturday late evening, waited for 40 minutes to be seated. We were seated in the back with a loud-ish family on one side, and a group of friends the other side for context. The server had a difficult time understanding we wanted menu b, even though it was mentioned and pointed at multiple times. One of the other servers kinda threw the plate on the table, which we found rude. The quality was decent, but it was drastically different from dish to dish. The atmosphere were kinda difficult to rate, as it was a busy evening in the Chinese new year celebration which were understandable. Food selection were quite huge, but for a dumpling place not to have baos were unfortunate. Cha Siu Baos were missed. Overall we didn't feel the value for money was quite there, and isn't planning to return for it in the future as it was quite a letdown for a place with 40 minute wait time

I can’t believe I haven’t write a review for this restaurant until now. It’s my favorite Chinese restaurant in London. All the dishes we ordered were all very good. My fav were the shrimp fired rice and firecracker chicken. Can’t wait to go back next time we visit London

Horrible customer service . Waitresses literally barking out orders at customers . Unacceptable ! The food is also pretty bad quality and tasteless so never again !

The best Chinese restaurant in Chinatown. Take my word for it because I've tried many and this is the best one and it of course has the biggest queue. But don't go here if you're looking for a 5 star dining experience. This place is purely for the food and every time we go we have never been disappointed by the food served. They have a very wide choice of food and is also suitable for vegetarians. My go-to's are the Chicken Xiao Long Bao and the Szechuan Chicken with Egg Fried Rice but sometimes I go for the fried Tofu dishes Beef black bean.

Authentic Chinese cuisine with affordable pricing, what a win! The food all around was fantastic! Truly, I’d recommend anything we ate. We had the Pork Xiao Long Bao, Crispy Aromatic Duck, Tom Yum Soup with Prawns, Fried Fish Slices in Sweet and Sour Sauce, and Egg Fried Rice. The service was also very quick.

Nourriture bonne. Nous avions pris un menu végétarien ainsi que des fried noodles chicken xiao long bao. Le menu végétarien était très bon et très copieux. Par contre, le chicken xiao long bao était sans plus, ainsi que pour les nouilles mais il y avait trop de sauce soja salée à notre goût. Nous avons pris des thés glacés maison. Ceux-ci étaient tellement sucrés que Fiza ne savait aspirer avec sa paille. Maurane a goûté le thé de ma sœur et a dit que le thé était incroyablement sucré. Ma sœur a bu une gorgée.

Wasn’t the best Chinese that I had but was very good, and good price also for Central London.

Ended up here after somehow failing to go to a neighbouring restaurant using Google Maps. They messed up our order. Me and wife ordered a soup each, they came with a soup and a dumpling. Going with my usual "eat first think later", I had already eaten half a dumpling order (not my soup) before I realized it wasn't what I ordered. I may have eaten someone else's dumplings today. Was billed for the soup (basically same price). No real menus on the table, what makes things a bit confusing as there are four different buffet options, dozens of dishes and the chinese accent is not very clear (as a foreigner myself). Lots of confusion, great food, at least one faux pas somewhere I'm sure. Would definitely return.

Sucio y comida de gastronomía fastfood, es normal en relacion al precio. Busco, pero insisto en la higiene y la seguridad alimentaria, reseñas de alguien q ayer le sentarán mal los dumpling de cangrejo y cerdo. Solo los comieron mis hijos y están malos. Ambos vomitado durante toda la noche sin digerirlos.

Great value for money! Always a long queue! :)

We had a great experience here, stayed in a row a bit but it was worth it. The food was great, a good place to visit if you like authentic chinese food.

the siu leong bao/soup dumplings are almost on a par with Din Tai Fung but the Dan Dan noodles which are way too wet and bland, they're not meant to be watery. the salt and pepper prawns were good though BUT the service was dreadful. part of the restaurant experience is meant to be the service - offer your customers a drink asap - don't leave them coughing. make sure they don't have to chase you to pay the bill. when bringing the food don't just plonk it down on the edge of the table try to lay things out so that customers can eat comfortably. such a shame because this was my go to before the lockdowns.

We ordered the crispy aromatic duck and it was not the best but it was OK but we also ordered dumplings because it's supposed to be the house specialty. The veggie pan fried dumpling barely had any veggies in it. They only had some mushroom and some rice noodles inside. The veggie dumplings soup... Well soup isnt what id call that. It was hot water poured on the dumplings that, again, lacked completely of vegetable filling. If you like the taste of nothing...

The vegetables dumplings were just dumplings full of noodles. No vegetables in sight, except some small pieces of mushrooms. And the dumplings soup were dumplings in hot water.

Nice tasty hot and sour soup, and a Dim Sum platter.. Would I come again, yes definitely. Recommended for the good taste. Thank you.

Food cooked to order, to a good standard with generous portions. Watch staff making dumplings in the window if you're queueing. Excellent value for money in the West End. Recommended!!

In the heart of London's vibrant Chinatown, Beijing Dumpling is a beacon for those seeking authentic and delectable Chinese cuisine. With its simple storefront and bustling atmosphere, it's a place where generations have gathered to savour the art of the dumplings. As you enter, the aroma of steaming dough and savory fillings hits you like a warm embrace. The open kitchen allows you to witness the meticulous craftsmanship behind each dumpling, from the delicate pinching of the dough to the generous dollops of filling. The sight of bamboo steamers brimming with these little parcels of goodness is enough to make your mouth water. The menu is a veritable ode to the dumpling, offering a plethora of options to tantalize your taste buds. We opted for a selection of dumplings, and they did not disappoint. The thin, translucent dough yielded to reveal a juicy filling, seasoned to perfection with subtle Asian flavours. Each dumpling was a harmonious explosion of flavours and textures, a testament to the skill and care put into every fold. The atmosphere at Beijing Dumpling is as authentic as the food itself. The clatter of chopsticks, the murmur of conversation, and the warm buzz of activity all contribute to a lively and genuine dining experience. The friendly staff adds to the charm, always willing to offer recommendations and answer any questions about the menu. If you're looking for a taste of yummy dumplings in London, then try out Beijing Dumpling. The delicious dumplings, the enticing menu, and the vibrant atmosphere make it a true Chinatown gem. Just be prepared to share a table, as this is a place meant for communal dining and shared culinary adventures.

Food (Singapore Noodle and Pork and Veg dumplings) was salty. Service was generally poor (stroppy waiter except one new young girl). Won’t bother going again. Many better options nearby.

Good Chinese food on the limited menu selection. Hand-made dumplings. Very reasonable price. Good sized portion. Busy. Expect to queue, but not for long. Worth it.

Amazing food, quick service but not refined. My go-to Chinese restaurant in London! Always wholesome.

Great food! Very big portions too, so dont over order like us 😂😂

This is my go-to place in Central London for a quick Chinese meal. Food is good and it has smoked chicken on the menu- my favourite dish. I just wanted to write this review to basically refute some of the weirder reviews I've seen on here. The service for me is always good, food comes quickly. People seem to expect the waiters to be chatty and friendly like some sort of American diner- this is a Chinese restaurant run by actual Chinese people, what you think is rude is just them getting to the point! And no, don't expect to wait inside for your table- it's very small! It does get busy at lunchtime and dinner, especially on the weekends, so you may have to wait for your table outside. And don't expect to be able to linger and have a nice long chat after your meal- they need the table for the long line of people waiting for it, so go and enjoy a dessert at one of the many excellent places in the area.

The queue is not worth the food! Don’t be fooled. This is a tiktok hype. The xiao long bao dumplings fall apart and had no soup in them. The “spicy” dumplings have no flavour and definitely no spice. Generally, bland flavours. The hot and sour soup was ok. The salt and pepper tofu was average. Maybe the other dishes would be better… but it’s called “Beijing dumpling” so you’d think their dumplings would be excellent. So sad. Another very average place in China town to avoid.

Good- Beef ho fun was tasty, beef was soft. Vegetable fried dumplings were very good. Seaweed was delicious and sweet. Egg fried rice was buttery Smoked fried chicken was delicious Chicken xiao long were average Not so good- Szechuan chicken tasted like sweet and sour chicken- poor. Fiery dumplings were not fiery at all

Nourriture délicieuse. Spécialités de Sichuan dans une ruelle de China town. Très bons dumplings fabriqués sous nos yeux. Faut pas s'arrêter à la sécheresse de certaines personnes au service.

Very weird staff, they are rude. The food is good, taste is fine but you need to order 10 pound per person atleast. It’s a bit conjusted and generally there is a big line.

Was OK. The soup dumplings, which was why we came, hardly had any soup in them and the rest of the food (black bean beef, tom yum soup, fried rice) was quite bland. The best dish was the salt and pepper fried tofu, and that's coming from a carnivore that usually doesn't enjoy tofu.

Cheapest in China Town. Genuinely good food. Love the aunties preparing the fresh dumplings ! The staff is also wonderful

Took the family up to China Town to take in Christmas and ended up in this restaurant, the food and service was really nice.

The food was delicious, we had king prawn fried rice and it was one of the best I ever had. The sea food platter was so good, it came with a chilli sauce that was so delicious I had to ask for the recipe

We had lunch at this lovely restaurant. The prices were way cheaper than a lot of the restaurants. The food was freshly cooked and tasty. The chef can be seen making the dumplings at the front of the restaurant. Staff were friendly and efficient. Our bill was £91 because we ordered quite a variety of dishes. The food portion was a good size.

Checked on google maps where to dine while I was at China town. Straight away, with the reviews, I decided to go here. Had to wait for 20 minutes-ish to get a table. The wait was totally worth it. Decided to go with dumplings - was a no brainier - turned out to be extremely delicious. Quick service and a great dining experience, no wonder why it is amongst the top dining places at China town. Saw a Michelin star (2017)outside the restaurant, don’t know if they still have it. Cherry on the top or should I say mooncake on the top - it wasn’t expensive came out to be £25ish for two, except the drinks.

Allways stopping there to have a lunch/dinner if we are nearby.Great tasty food selection at affordable prices😋

Tried some authentic Chinese food here. Had to wait in the line for almost 30 mins and it was definitely worth it.

Good was not too bad, there was no real atmosphere to speak of but the staff and service was great

This is such a quality place to eat. Setting is basic & simple. You even detail your choice on a sheet. The quality of the food & service makes this perfect. Be prepared to queue. It’s popular!!

Tuvimos que esperar bastante rato en la cola. Porque no pasas según orden de llegada sino según el número de comensales que salgan del restaurante. La comida sin más. Nada del otro mundo. Estaba bien

Delicious and good quantity of food! There was a queue and I had to wait around 30 mins. Otherwise, very nice place and affordable for a place in central London

Absolutely a joke, went inside for lunch today, there was noone waiting in front of us. This waitress shouted at us, "you go outside and wait!". Who you think you are? Really? I hope you know how to be a polite women.

The food is ok there’s isn’t a dish that I would say is spectacular or special Expected a little more from the soup dumplings they lacked flavour. The chilli oil is very tasty. Googled this place to try soho dumplings or a place that specialises in dumplings. Have tried a few dumpling flavours from here and it’s nothing special in fact relatively bland. Service is standard The atmosphere is terrible really uncomfortable hard seating and if your seated upstairs all you can hear is staff throwing dishes constantly so take some paracetamol with you as you will leave with a migraine. There is seating downstairs but it is not accessible and quite dangerous if slippery. The que outside does move quickly I’m guessing it’s because people can’t sit for very long on the stools lol x

Long waiting queue while the tables are empty. Food is good but the service is really bad.

Really good place to eat. Food was amazing and good price and the service was top class.

Posto scovato per puro caso perchè affamati ed infreddoliti dai 2 gradi di Londra. Posto super azzeccato, servizio veloce, cibo molto buono e molto abbondante. Noi abbiamo ordinato le solite 6 portate che facciamo anche in Italia... e niente abbiamo fatto il pranzo di Natale e Capodanno in anticipo, piatti esageratamente abbondanti ma tutti cucinati benissimo. Ho amato il cavolo Pok Choi e gli involtini di petto d'anatra ma anche gli altri piatti molto buoni. L'ambiente è carino e ci sono due piani. Ci ritornerò sicuramente!

Amazing Chinese food! Expect to wait in line for a table but it’s totally worth it! Authentic, and so damn tasty! The crispy duck was fantastic, the dumplings great, noodles great, atmosphere great! So glad we waited, we will definitely be back

We were a group of 7 and after an hour waiting in the street at 0 degrees, they divided us in 2 tables and didn’t offer a solution for us to have dinner together. They were really really rude and treated us very impolitely so we had to leave without eating anything. Don’t recommend and wouldn’t go back.

One of my favourite restaurants in the world. The soup dumplings and dry fried noodles are best.

First off the food is excellent and totally worth it. However did not appreciate a large queue with people waiting outside in the cold when several tables were free both downstairs and upstairs. The service did not get any better once inside.

Was ok. Better book a table to avoid waiting.

Just tried the Baozhi with pork. Taste good but not the best

forgot to take photos of food but it was banging, defo recommend the pork xiao long bao. the service was quick and friendly - those who like to have a chit chat with the waiter should find a more slow paced restaurant! food was all very quick to come and was so yummy ! didn't reserve, only had to wait 15 mins and we pulled up at around 2pm

Wir haben das Restaurant im YouTube Video vom deutschen Kanal Deliziös entdeckt und sind auf Grund der guten Bewertung im Video dort hin. Wir hatten nicht reserviert und haben circa 20 Minuten gewartet. Das warten hat sich absolut gelohnt! Das Essen war unfassbar lecker, der Service war sehr gut und der Preis war auch in Ordnung. Zu zweit haben wir 58 Pfund bezahlt. Wenn ich das nächste mal in London bin gehe ich hier sehr gerne wieder hin. 👌🏼

Good food at reasonable prices. It's a nice treat with the kids.
