Bright Courtyard in City of London, Westminster

Average taste and overpriced. I waited for more than half an hour for the food to be served. The service staff did not pay attention to the customer's needs at all. No one refilled the water. I also waited a long time for the bill. I will not go back.

Bad service, bad food, bad pricing.

Very delicious, very authentic taste! ! ! The service is very considerate and the environment is elegant!

Really nice environment and fantastic food! A great place that worth trying!

Bright Courtyard on Baker Street is hands down my favorite Chinese spot in London! They’ve been around for 13 years, serving up super tasty Shanghainese dishes and fresh seafood. You’ve gotta try the salted egg yolk lobster – they cook it fresh and it’s seriously next level. I’m also obsessed with the black pepper beef cubes, super tender and full of flavor. They’ve also got an awesome tea selection, all straight from the source. The whole vibe inside is so beautiful with traditional Chinese decor, perfect for date nights or hanging out with friends. Plus, the service is always spot on. If you’re in London and want some top-notch Chinese food, this place is a must!

The overall experience was quite average. The lighting in the restaurant was overly bright, creating an uncomfortable atmosphere. The food ranged from good to average. The Pak Choi had an overwhelming amount of garlic, and the Crab Tofu lacked both flavor and spice. However, the fish and broccoli were well-prepared, and the egg fried rice was excellent. Unfortunately, the service was below average. Our food arrived before we even received water, and I had to ask three times before my tea was served. Additionally, one waiter had a noticeable odor, which made it unpleasant every time they passed by.

Over rated authentic Chinese restaurant. Food was average, the ha gao and fan guo dimsum skin was too sticky, it fell apart when trying to pick it up. The service was poor, will not return!

Food was disappointing, especially the siu mai. Cheung fun “skin” was sticky and dough sticks over fried. Salted egg bun not so fluffy. Har gow was nice but that’s it really. It was a comfortable setting and service was pleasant but I wouldn’t rush back for the food!

It tastes like home~ Highly recommended, right next to Selfridges😗

Fantastic food and lots of choice – delicious and very authentic, ate a lot bit didn't come away bloated!

Good service and delicious food

Great service ! I love the food here, dessert also nice, can’t wait to come back again soon!

This Shanghainese restaurant really surprised me! The taste of the dishes is very authentic, and every dish is full of rich Shanghai flavor. Especially the signature braised pork, it melts in your mouth and the sauce is rich, completely restoring the traditional Shanghai taste. The service is also very considerate, and the restaurant's environment is elegant and comfortable, making people feel very relaxed. Whether it's a family dinner or a get-together with friends, this is an ideal choice.

I was pleasantly surprised when a friend invited me to this Shanghainese restaurant for dinner. Ordered a few authentic Shanghainese dishes to relieve my homesickness. Nice ambience for a date.

The best Chinese restaurant in Marylebone! Sweet & sour chicken is very good, the ribs are great, the tea is high quality and the mango+pomelo desert is fantastic! Service is the best, Ting was kind, nice and very efficient!

Really nice restaurant! We were having a crave for dumplings, so we decided to come to this restaurant It is really good! They have a nice big choice of dishes and the atmosphere remembered us to Maxim’s one of our favourite restaurants in Hong Kong The quality and flavour of the food is nice, but I should say that the best was Ting, our waitress:, her kindness, suggestions and explanations upgraded our experience Highly recommended

The environment is good, and the dishes are mainly Shanghainese. Recommended smoked fish! Very delicious

Recommended honey lotus root and scallion oil noodles

Very appetising lunch and friendly service

Friendly and helpful staffs. The foods were amazing delicious. It took me back to China. 100% recommended<3 I’ll definitely come back for the dim sums and peking duck

A very delicious local dish ~ the crispy fish is very authentic! Very delicious~

Sichuan pepper chicken soup and crab powder tofu are highly recommended!

Shanghai cuisine, fried eel and flower crab fried rice cake are all good. The store was very polite and gave me dessert.

Excellent dim sum and professional service. Nice atmosphere too.

Good food and nice relaxing environment to catch up with friends.

I love the food, flavour is nice and environment is good & staffs are friendly.

Waiters were v friendly and they deserve decent Shanghainese rice cake.

A decent Chinese restaurant in London which has established its reputation over the years. Comfortable environment in central London. Despite simple dishes I ordered, they were executed well. I will come back and try more.

The best Shanghainese meal I’ve had in London. The flavors were incredibly authentic, transporting me right back to the restaurants in Shanghai. The smoked fish was crispy and fragrant and the honey lotus root was delightful. Each dish was a delightful. Great ambiance and friendly service.

Enjoyed a delicious dinner tonight. The ingredients are fresh, The time is just right. Extremely tender and crispy. Moderately salty and sweet.

We’ve found this restaurant after shopping nearby and what a great find. The flavor was spot on and the ingredients were fresh. It brings me back to my time in Shanghai.

Edith was the kindest most attentive person, made the whole experience so much more wonderful.

Delicious food served by the wonderful Edith. I will look forward to returning.

Recently returned from China and glad to find a restaurant with authentic taste, amiable staff and furniture traditional luxury combined modern comfort. Soup of Cantonese recipe was pleasant . Overall felt like back at home.

Tastes good and service is online

Today we went there for the event at courtyard. Generally the party food won’t be very tasty but it’s a supervise we got fantastic lobster there. Even prawns in XO sauce tastes good. Also really appreciated for their considerate service at a busy night.

Everyone has a great attitude and the atmosphere is great. food is not bad

Really enjoyed our food! Super yummy and service was excellent, especially with Edith. She was so helpful and welcoming. We will come back for sure!

Been having dim sum here for over 5 years, always amazed me. Finding myself coming back too often.

Tasty food, friendly service, would highly recommend!

Highly recommended for the vegetarian dishes. The green beans and eggplant just clean my soul.

Very good experience and delicious food

A very delicious Chinese restaurant. The taste of dim sum is no different from that in China. The service is also very good. The price is much more affordable than in Chinatown!

Excellent food and service was really great. The staff was very helpful specially Edith she gave great food recommendations and helped us out a lot! This place is definitely a must when you come to Central London!

Good food and service from Edith.

One of the best Chinese restaurants in London. The food is handled very delicately. Thank you very much for Edidh’s service. It’s very meticulous. Like it 👍

This is my second visit, every dish is delicious! Recommended👍👍👍

James, Edith and Angel fantastic service always welcoming and hospitable highly recommended service and food was amazing

Edith and James have been amazing. Top notch service and food in general never disappoints.

We went as a large group of 9 people and had a great lunch here. Food and service was excellent.

Had a great dinner out with family! Very clean and tidy environment, high quality and authentic Chinese traditional cuisine, attentive service with great level of patience to my terrible-3 son, credit to Edith who covered the service of our table, she enhanced our whole dining experience! This is our first time here but definitely won’t be our last! Keep up the great work!

Good food but no air condition which made the place very hot

I have been to so many Chinese restaurants in London, and I honestly have to say that this was one of my best experiences! The food and the atmosphere were wonderful. The staff were some of the best I’ve come by, always smiling and helpful, in particular Angel and Galvin. Definitely coming back.

Very tasty food and excellent service, thanks to Gavin and Angel for a wonderful dinner. Great advice on the vegetarian options too.

A nice restaurant to enjoy authentic Chinese cuisine. Like the lotus root with glutinous rice.

Great delicious food and good service!

We came for a special occasion and the staff was amazing with us. Thank you very much for the great evening

We were looking forward to eating at Bright Courtyard but was greatly disappointed. The staff were very disorganized and it took them 10min to give us the menu. The tall Asian waiter who wore glasses was very rude when we asked why the aubergine dish was so spicy yet on the menu it didn’t have a chilli sign. Had to rerun that dish. A child in the restaurant was screaming for 10seconds before he loudly “shushed” the child, and then gave the child an extremely evil look. We were appalled!! The Philippine waitress was very friendly. Would definitely not recommend.

Enjoy coming here for the dim sum and friendly service

Amazing service from Edith and Ken extremely attentive and polite. The food is also second to none, I always come here for Dim Sum. Today I tried the Ho-Fun and I am speechless.. AMAZING !!!

Brilliant food - one of the best Beef Hofun in town & authentic dim sum. Service is amazing - Edith and Ken are superb with their customer service extremely polite.

Best Chinese restaurant in London for seafood. Especially the prawns.

The service is very good and the food is fresh!

Edith was lovely to us and the food was very tasty!

we walked out as they said they only had one white wine by the glass and the website said they had at least 6 they then said they only had certain wine by the bottle starting at 75 pounds and that all the wines below that price were out of stock so we left and went across the street felt like they were trying to bully us into spending more money FYI we had 3 bottles of wine at the other restaurant

We had a great time at bright courtyard .The service were excellent . Egg fried rice Highly recommend!"

Nice service and delicious food!!! Have a wonderful experience in here :)

Happy customer happy guest! Will come back again soon.

Authentic southern Chinese food, absolutely love the soup! Smoked fish is a must order as well. Great service and atmosphere.

Not bad, very suitable for Chinese people's stomach

Good ambience with delicious food. Especially the seafood
