China City - Russell Square in Camden

I think it's delicious. The seasoning is spicier than the other restaurant on the same block.

Nestled in the heart of London, China City is a delightful find that offers both an inviting atmosphere and a menu overflowing with authentic Chinese flavors. Upon entering, you're welcomed by warm, ambient lighting and charming traditional decor. The lively karaoke adds to the fun, making it a great spot for both intimate dinners and larger gatherings. The staff are friendly and attentive, creating a warm, welcoming vibe that makes you feel right at home. The menu is impressively extensive, showcasing a wide range of dishes from across China. Each dish is crafted with care, delivering a fantastic blend of flavors that truly capture the essence of Chinese cuisine. Best of all, the prices are quite reasonable, especially considering the high quality of the food. If you’re in London and craving authentic Chinese fare, I highly recommend giving China City a visit!

Most delicious and authentic Chinese meal in London. Must try their Dimsum platter, Braised pork belly, and roast meats. If you have a rice craving, go for their special fried rice. The staff are super friendly and accommodating.

The atmosphere is warm and cozy. The food is tasty and delicious. The service is great too! We ordered tea and they would constantly checking and refill the cup for us. I would like to give them 5 star plus 😊🌟

Very friendly staff and good service, with traditional Chinese food, as a Chinese who travelled in London, I was impressed by this restaurant and would like to visit it again soon! The Ma Po Tofu is absolutely the best!

Claypot rice is delicious! The food is generous, the service is attentive, and there are snacks to eat! Have a great time eating🥳

Abundant food, variety of dishes and very attentive.

nice food nice environment.staff is very friendly especially the guy name steven

Excellent food, excellent service

It was a great meal and very friendly attendants

Brilliant food and very good service.

Very good, very good food and excellent service, they are very kind!

A friend introduced me to eat here for the first time. I felt that the environment was very comfortable, and of course the food was also very delicious, especially the dim sum, roasted meat, and roasted duck. I highly recommend it. The service is also great.

Brilliant service and delicious food. Would highly recommend most of the dishes, though notable mention has to be given to the dim sum, seafood noodles, as well as the roast pork and roasted duck! It was too delicious and I forgot to take the pictures of dim sum 🙃😊. Thanks China City Rest!

Brilliant service and delicious food. Would highly recommend most of the dishes, though notable mention has to be given to the dim sum, seafood noodles, as well as the roast pork and roasted duck!

Had a fantastic experience at China City. Brought a large tour group of 40 students to eat here and the food exceeded our expectations. The dim sum, seafood noodles, roast duck and roasted pork were particularly good. Would highly recommend and will certainly be returning!

I went for the dim sum basket, six items for £30. Some were new to me, others I’d had before. All were delicious, well prepared and nicely presented. The staff were all personable, attentive and efficient. The restaurant itself was very clean and pleasantly cool on a hot day. I’m sure I’ll be back when in London again.

Amazing staff,Polite People Delicious food Good service

We had a wonderful dinner: I suggest Shamghai dumplings, Singapour style noodles and Cantonese Duck. Authentic chinese food. Very professional service. Fair price.

The food is usually delicious, and they serve it until late at night, which is a good thing.

This is my first visit, and I enjoyed the food, friendliness, and atmosphere. We had three dishes with rice, all very well made and delicious. We also had comfy seats and beautiful decos around the table. Would be happy to visit again! 😊

The spicy hotpot is super large and tastes as good as in China👍

All the foods in this restaurant are so delicious! Good service👍 Food were fresh👍 Nice and comfortable place to come with family & friends

Nice soup noodles & fried rice. I will like fried rice drier. 👍

Food was okay wish it had been better

It tastes bad in capital letters! The service is also weird

The meat in the preserved egg and lean meat porridge is very good; the pork ribs in black bean sauce are average; the chicken feet are not bad. The lights are extremely dim and the environment needs to be improved.

China City for me is a very beautiful and very quiet place.

This is the best restaurant and food in the Chinese sector great staff they listen to Ur order and take note of all allergies u have then they make sure it's wickedly cooked get chao main ull love it get egg f r ull love it iv been going to this restaurant for 2 yrs it's bloody gawjus

Very tasty and service is remembrance! I def wanna come back :)

Tried the mala fish set Excellent! Remind us of home! Great table side service as well!

Truely recommend wind dried meat clay pot rice and dim sum platter. Staff is friendly and helpful.

Bought a take away chicken fried, £10.50, expensive, but I thought I would treat myself expecting the portion and quality to be good. Very disappointing, it was a small portion, and I had to season it myself - it didn't even taste fried, it was more like a chicken boiled rice. I'm local, so they would have had repeated custom, but I definitely won't be returning.

Very good Chinese food in Bloomsbury. I thought it was good value.

Faboulus food, probably the best ever. All six of us agreed to visit this lovely restaurant twice. We tried 8 different dishes and all had the same quality

The food was delicious! The waiters were super kind, and even the owner came to our table to see if everything was OK. We will come back for sure, next time we visit London!

Great duck, great service, great seaweed

I have been to this restaurant a couple of time, and it's not bad, the food is decent enough but unexceptional. Service is a little slow even at quiet times. Due to the size of the venue most tables are usually empty (but this may be different at peak weekend times) so it can feel a little "sterile" in terms of atmosphere, although if you're looking for quiet that's what you'll get. Price-wise, I feel it's on the high side, and if they were a little more reasonable I think they'd get more people in and improve the atmosphere too. Location is a factor, understandably, but unless you have a specific reason to come here, you might prefer a short trip into Covent Garden and Soho for quality and value.

DO NOT GO HERE. Went here to get some lunch. I popped in and said hello ill be right back and walked to the toilet before grabbing a table. The manager comes in and starts SCREAMING and cursing and threatening me with violence if I don't immediately leave. I've stopped in multiple shops to use the toilet before ordering and nobody EVER comes out and threatens to beat me if I don't leave. Or as he put it "he'll get the boys to toss me around." I had wanted to use the toilet and try their food out, now I NEVER will. The lady at the desk was nice, she had said "hello" and then "okay." So I have no idea why the short ego-driven manager decided to personally threaten violence and curve and scream. Terrible management. Have somebody standing by your toilets if it's that big of a deal. Don't threaten customers/potential customers. Absolutely ridiculous.

This is such a great place to eat. We go everytime (at least once a week) when in London. The service is fabulous and every food is the best. You do not go away hungry.

It was mine and my boyfriend’s anniversary and we wanted to find a nice chinese restaurant, we found China city and wow. The service is so so so good all the staff are friendly and welcoming, the food was the best i’ve tasted, we will be coming back soon with the rest of my family tehe(:

Too bad we can't give more stars, because I will add more. Welcoming and warm staff, excellent food, it is a perfect place for lovers of Asian food.

Love this place really enjoy coming here and have been coming for years

Came here for a take away, service and atmosphere was present. The food was average and over priced.

Really good food shame they insist on you paying service charge when you don't need to they bring the stuff that a table regardless you can tip if you wish and not made to please abolish service charge

Horrible “ chicken with honey and lemons l was chicken in maple syrup with a slice of lemon. Overcooked dry dumplings. Will not visit again.

Excellent everything. Fantastic food.

Such fresh food, amazing taste, perfect service. I strongly recommend it.

I tried simmered bass, 麻婆豆腐, fried rice here. Everything was such fresh and amazing. I strongly recommend it.

Food here is lovely although my chow mein lacked a little taste. However everything eles what tasty. The service is great. Very warm and welcoming. Would definitely recommend.

Un po' difficile leggere il loro menù per un italiano all' estero ma abbiamo mangiato bene. E speso il giusto

竟然好意思跟我说这是川菜的宫保鸡丁，这不就是古老鸡加辣酱嘛。我还提前问你是不是川菜的宫保鸡丁，你那么肯定的说是。你们不会做还没听说过吗？这明摆着是骗呀，骗一个算一个的节奏呀。

We had a great meal here while in London. The menu was varied and all the dishes we ordered were fantastic. Service was friendly and efficient. Would definitely return.

Quiet night. Tuesday evening. Staff friendly and helpful. Duck for pancakes very tender. Nice meal

Poor service, later order with cold meals, noisy environment, really bad experienced!!!😨😨🙈🙈Wouldn't come back again!!! Wouldn't recommend this restaurant! Dont waste time and money!!

Staff is really professional and courteous. And manager offers an excellent customer service.

Went here to grab takeout for dinner. The service wasn’t the most pleasant and I got the chicken friend rice and it was very plain and there non flavors.

One of the rudest managers that I ever encountered in my life. We went around 7 pm and we saw three people waiting for table since the place was full. When we ask the manager for the waiting time he said no more tables. We asked again and one of the servers said just gimme a minute. We asked again to the manager and he replied whith bad manners 25 minutes. Is that how you serve people?

Beatiful resteraunt. Lovely food

Kamen mit großem Hunger dort an und unsere Erwartungen waren hoch. Wir bestellten Essen und trinken, welches auch schnell ankam. Die Vorspeise bestehend aus Frühlingsrollen waren gut. Als Hauptgang bestellen wir Ente mit Reis. Das Essen kam und war enttäuschend. Die Ente war total labbrig, hatte Knorpel und auch der Reis war ungenießbar. Noch einige Stunden später hatte man was von dem Essen, welche sind in Bauchschmerzen und Toilettengängen bemerkbar machte. Keine Empfehlung

Whilst the restaurant has a little bit of a 90's feel with some classic karaoke videos playing in the background that my 10 year old loved the food and service was excellent the restaurant was busy and clearly with customers that keep coming back and I don't blame them 😁

The service yesterday was excellent. Very attentive and friendly. The food was good, but the air conditioning was to cold and blew in my neck, which was a little bit uncomfortable. Everything else is absolutly recommended. Thanks for the great service!

Service lent, le goût des mets est assez fade pour du chinois, on a été déçu

Great place to eat. The service was friendly. The atmosphere was happy and the food was great

Amazing banquet Lovely food great service Thank you

Definitely not recommend, bad food. Not worth the price, two small bowels charges 8 pounds 极其糟糕的餐馆，需要避坑

菜色超好吃！椒鹽豆腐無敵專業！服務生也很熱情！真的解了一個月的鄉愁❤️

虽然外面写的提供川菜东北菜，但是典型的老广东中餐馆，无论是英文名字还是老板的口音，亦或是菜单，都表明这是以前老的潮汕广东菜馆。宫保鸡丁是外国人口味那种，但酸味减少辣味较多，改良得不错。牡蛎煎饼比较出乎意外地好，因为这是不太容易做好的一道菜。虽然这个菜卖相不是太好，蛋与面的比例火候差些，但味道的确不错，如果改成大葱丝恐怕华人接受度更高，但外国顾客可能就吃不消了

This restaurant's Mapo Tofu （麻婆豆腐）has sichuan peppercorns (I think that's what they are called), so it will make your tongue tingle! That doesn't mean it's not tasty at all (it's actually really tasty!), it's just a precaution as some people prefer without them. My favourite dish from there is hot and sour soup! It's really sour, which I love the most about this dish!

As a Hong Koner, I can say the food is authentic Cantonese. I cannot really tell whether I am eating this in London or Hong Kong.

Great food, ordered the crispy pork belly and crispy chicken! Definitely recommend it!

Great all around! Highly recommend!

Love this place the entertainment is really good and the food wow what a place if you have not been you need to go

Ordered food to collect before visiting my son and wife in GOSH. Food was ready on the time I wanted it, all neatly packed with prepacked fork/spoon and napkin. The food (Chicken black bean/chicken honey&lemon/wonton soup/sweetcorn&crab soup and spring rolls) were all superb! Best chinese food I have had in ages!

The staff are very rude. I was enquiring about a bottomless brunch and they hung up on me.

Great food family and service. Come here for the complete experience!!

Good food. But Unbelievable pricey! Ordered Two dishes for £50, and charged me 12% (£7)service fee.

我多次去，味道挺好，价格实在，态度也很好，位置离地铁近，就是人少。

Best Peking Duck I've had in a long time...

The food is fantastic good portion I really recommend this place, specially, the lobster and the roaster duck. And I even got 2 free dessert Many Thank you guys

Fantastic!!! 👍🏻 It is the most satisfying restaurant I have ever met in London. Whether it is service, food or environment, it deserves five stars! The food and service enjoyed at the price of paper are worth it! I introduced a lot of friends and said that this restaurant was great. So I highly recommend you to go here! 🤫I'll tell you secretly that their mango pudding is delicious🥰

Very bad food. I usually enjoy eating Chinese food but this was the most horrible experience in whole. Very bad staff. They are super rude. On top of that food taste was very bad. Absolutely don’t recommend it to anyone.

Fikk beskjed om at vi måtte bestille for minimum 20£ per person. Det drar ned, generelt laber service. Maten var god, men lite.

Had a bad experience. Food was pretty good, besides the fact that I made sure the fried rice was vegan -> Received it with eggs (I thought oh we’ll mistakes happen) But then when we asked to switch the manager gave us this speech about ‘next time should say no eggs’..when we obviously made sure it was vegan with waitress…very rude and unkind, otherwise food was good.

Extremeley underrated - this place is awesome and the food on point - highly recommend!

Try the 3-meat claypot rice, its fantastic

food and menu look great, sadly they didn't mention that they are not wheelchair accessible. please note that they are not wheelchair accessible from the road as well as the car park.

Worst experience during the entire stay in London!! Staff are super rude. Food is subpar and filllllled with oil! They serve uncooked food and if you ask about it they tell you how long it’s been in the steamer. Wouldn’t recommend this restaurant..

Repas très bon et de bons qualité, comme le service, merci!

Nice people but no so tasty food.

It’s THE BEST Chinese place in London!!! The best food, amazing prices, the best service possible!!! I am a great fan of the food, prawn dumplings are literally the best on the whole world for such an affordable price. Sweet and sour chicken is great!!! I’ve been to so many Chinese places and in the majority of them the service is so poor, the staff doesn’t even look at you but just throws the menu to you, but not here!!! The best team, very friendly and welcoming, very helpful! Thank you Chinese City team for the great work you do ♥️

Rude staff, went to the wrong place but the waiter said go outside see what we called, how helpful this is, avoid!

Cozy atmosphere, service on point and fresh cooked meals. Thank you

Food was amazing and we got seated straight away no hassle. Staff was amazing and friendly

The material of the food is not fresh. And they serve us the wrong dish. The service is very bad. No respect. The waiter said "go away" after I tole them I am not satisdied with their food. You really need to flatter them if you want to get a good service.

A fuir !! Cher pour un repas médiocre. Le personnels nous a ignores une grande partis de la soirée , nous servants les plats sans même débarrasser les entrées .

Delicious food, kind staff. It’s on my way home and I often want to get food here.

مطعم صيني بمنطقة Russell Square. الطلب كان رز أبيض مع سالمون مشوي بالصوص الحار، الأكل والطعم ممتاز ولذيذ جدا وسبايسي 💥. المشكلة أن المكان والجو العام داخل المطعم مكتوم، ورائحة السجائر فيه قوية حتى لو كان المدخن في الخارج. خيار جيد للسمك. السعر كان قريب من 20£.

Clay rice pot with Chinese sausage and pork belly. Sweet staff! Decor like a trip.

Super delicious authentic Chinese food. We tried the soft shell crab and two kinds of BBQ pork, and it was perfect. The waiters was friendly and helpful, and suggested that I got some of their homemade hot oil for the pork, quite a bite to it but very good with the meat. Will come back next time I'm in London
