Food House in City of London, Westminster

1. Pre-made dishes, I watched beef fried rice and egg fried rice being brought out of the microwave. 2. The food was not fresh. My friend and I spent an average of 50 pounds per person. We ate black rotten crayfish. 3. The waiter was very dirty. When serving the rice, I saw a waiter wearing glasses pouring the rice into the big rice cooker. As a result, she grabbed it directly with her hands. 4. Use a dirty rag to wipe the dishes. Each bowl is wiped with a dirty rag to dry the water stains, and it is done openly. It's disgusting.

my favorite hotpot in chinatown！so amazing！I will 100%recommend to anyone！

Very Authentic Charcoal Copper Hot Pot! The broth is simple, but when combined with the fresh ingredients and the special sesame sauce, the flavors are absolutely amazing. Everything comes together perfectly. Highly recommend!

The finest, unique copper pot in London!!Last winter, my friends took me to eat it and said it was the only place in London that had it! First time in my life to eat a copper pot. I brought my friends here again this year, and once again I wondered why it tasted so good.

The portions were generous, and the taste was spot on. The raised pork belly I had was well-seasoned and satisfying, with tender meat and a rich sauce that paired perfectly with rice. If you’re looking to try something else, I highly recommend the crispy and sweet fried pork in vinegar sauce, the savory braised ribs with noodles, and for dessert, don’t miss out on the brown sugar rice cakes or rice wine dumplings. great value for money, and delicious food!

Absolutely fantastic spot for a budget-friendly meal in London. The flavors are authentic, and the portion sizes are generous. I tried the braised pork belly, and it was melt-in-your-mouth tender with a rich, savory sauce. The atmosphere is cozy, and the service is quick and friendly. Highly recommend trying the fried pork in vinegar sauce for something crispy and sweet, and the braised ribs with noodles for a comforting dish. The brown sugar rice cakes and rice wine dumplings are perfect as well. Great value and even better food!

They charged me £10 service charge and my friend £5. My food was £11, so I paid 90-100% extra for service charge?! They did not tell me, they just made me pay. I don’t know what service I am paying for when they were horrible and rude and the food was bland, chewy and overpriced. We are not picky eaters but my friend left all her beef from her noodles as it made her feel sick. Don’t go, save your money and go elsewhere. They clearly want non-Chinese customers as well, by being in this touristy area and bringing in diverse religious dietary requirements etc but they don’t even provide cutlery, foreigners aren’t used to chopsticks. Depressing atmosphere too.

Nice hotpot! For a fixed price, I can eat as much as I can!

Delicious, love to eat, eat more

We were roaming around china town and as it was lunch time, we wanted to try Chinese food but halal at the time same. Google said that real Beijing serves halal food. It was 5 of us and we tried prawns and beef egg fried rice. The food was bit pricy and taste was ok. Service was quick and friendly though. If you are in china town and looking for halal Chinese then this is the place.

Taken to long, food average, nothing special

Very good Chinese food and service Very authentic northern taste, their copper pots and barbecue are excellent, highly recommended

The sauerkraut copper pot is very delicious, and the service is also very good. A bunch of dishes we ordered came out quickly

I recently visited this hotpot buffet and was really impressed! They offer a wide variety of sides for the hotpot, and each portion is massive. The service was incredibly fast, which made the whole experience even better. Highly recommend if you're looking for a hearty and satisfying meal! I’ll definitely most likely see myself coming back every time I’m craving for some hotpot!

Blind Spot Everything is delicious Pick whatever you fancy on the menu and you won’t regret!

Unlimited Halal Hot Pot? Yes and you can find @realbeijing_london in Chinatown. At £30 per person, it truly is unlimited but be sure not to waste anything as they do charge for that, which I think is great policy. I didn't find the spicy version as spicy as you could add more chilli's etc but their peanut sauce was a delight to have it with. Cold weather is upon us so hot pot like this goes down well.

Very delicious! Highly recommend the grilled fish and brown sugar glutinous rice cake!

Way too small portions. Pricy. Tip of 15% automatically added to the bill. No shame.

I’m such a fan of Fengwei Shitang, that I come here every month. It’s right in London’s Chinatown, and super easy to get to. My go-to dishes are the lamb skewers and fuqi feipian—the meat is always fresh and tastes amazing. The osmanthus rice wine balls are also really good—sweet and fragrant. I’ll definitely keep coming back. If you’re in London and love authentic Chinese food, you’ve got to try this place!

Quality of food is quite low Limited Variety, if you don eat lamb , you can only have beef. Only fish ball available, no beef ball, no crabmeat ball, no dumpling ,etc …even luncheon meat is a tiny thin one. what a save! The spicy sauce are no taste.. strange . We know it’s an all you can eat with 32.8 pp Only. I prefer to pay a bit more to have better quality of food. Sorry We will not come again

My friends and I love getting together at Feng Wei Shi Tang,a Chinese restaurant that’s been in Chinatown for over ten years. The food is seriously delicious, and you can get everything from hotpot and barbecue to Beijing-style dishes. My favorite is the sour fish soup—the fish is super tender, and the flavor is just the right mix of sour and spicy. The service is great too! If you’re into Beijing cuisine and you’re in London, you’ve got to check this place out.

Hot Pot Buffet is a must try. 10/10

🍢🔥 Just tried the skewers and Kong Pao prawn, and WOW! The skewers were perfectly grilled with so much flavor, and the Kong Pao prawn had the perfect balance of spice and sweetness. Every bite was bursting with deliciousness! Highly recommend if you're looking for something tasty and satisfying! 😋👌

Recommended grilled lamb chops and red willow kebabs! The fried noodles are also super delicious! Authentic northern taste!

It tastes bad, it doesn’t taste good, it makes me feel upset, what kind of sesame sauce is there, but I still have the nerve to write about sesame sauce when promoting it, haha.

Delicious food and good service!

Been dining with them for over 10 years now, always nice food and loads of selections. Recently had the Chinese bbq and it’s really good, highly recommend! They also have really nice wintermelon and ribs soup, also a must try!

Although the self-service hot pot menu is listed as just over thirty pounds per person, it does not include the charged side dishes and drinks (you can skip the drinks if you don’t want to go crazy). The sesame sauce side dishes are extremely salty and have almost no sesame sauce flavor, only the fermented bean curd flavor. I can only choose to neutralize it. To buy drinks) it costs 40+ per person (this is still a discounted price of 10% off if you pay in cash) Also, the beef is minced after being cooked. It doesn’t taste as good as the frozen beef rolls from Xiangyuan in the Chinese Super League. Drinks are about 3-4 pounds a bottle (no refills. If you want to drink more, you can only order another bottle because the sesame sauce is very salty, so we ordered two rounds of drinks. We reasonably doubt whether the store deliberately made the sesame sauce salty to make more money. Drink money?) We have eaten hot pot in several cities in the UK and Europe, but this one is the worst we have ever tasted! ! ! ! ! ! ! 👎It’s so bad that it makes people silent and can’t eat it at all. If your hot pot costs 20 pounds, I won’t say anything. But your hot pot itself is 30+ per person and the toppings are 2 pounds a bowl. I ask you, why do you have the nerve to pay this price? Made it so unpalatable? ? ? After being reminded, I remembered that this self-service hot pot also charges a 12% service fee. So why is it called a self-service hot pot?

Great portion, loved that it was halal.

Just a normal boy saw it on tik tok and went with my mate. Didn’t know what to expect staff helped me with everything and it was so amazing, such an amazing experience with such amazing foods, honestly I’m addicted and want to go back everyday, they don’t hold back and always offer to bring u more food couldn’t be happier. Deffo recommend

delicious food got the all you can eat worth the price

Very nice food, authentic yummy northern Chinese cuisine. Service can be a bit slow but worth the wait.

Good experience on my special day celebration. Good service. I was embarrassed that I spilled food on the chair and the waitress helped me out. They are very friendly.

JC’s service at the cafeteria was outstanding! She’s both attentive and enthusiastic, making every visit enjoyable. Her expert menu knowledge helped us choose delicious meals. I truly appreciate her professionalism and look forward to dining there again!

Customer service is really bad. The lady who served us was very rude. Food taste horrible. We had only the soup and the rice, the crispy pork was really bad. Couldn't eat it at all. Will never come back to this place, waste of money.

The staff was very kind and helpful. We chose the halal options and they made sure to accommodate for us properly. One of the best service I've had for hotpot we all really appreciated the servers. great experience would definitely recommend they aren't shy with portions as well.

One of the best hot pot places in the UK, halal options available, friendly staff, a nice vibe and quite spacious. First time trying hot pot and it did not disappoint, the clear and spicy half half broth was good and the buffet makes sure you leave full. The premium beef was especially good. Price was reasonable for what it is, it's the sort of thing I would do on special occasions so happy to spend a bit more. Also, a small detail that I think many places overlook was how cold the soft drinks were. The can came ice cold as if it was kept in a freezer, perfect in combination with hot pot, I had to order another.

One of the top spot for hot pot special that it has halal menu top quality ingredients and many varieties of type of vegetables, proteins, noodles and different type of soup base . The staff are extremely friendly and accommodating there is plenty of space

Recommended by a friend, the self-service hotpot is very cost-effective and tastes very good! The location is also very easy to find. Suitable for friends gathering.

Very good BBQ in Chinatown!! Would recommend!!

I came here with a group of friends. The server we had did not really understand what I was trying to ask about the food before ordering which made it difficult to communicate.The menus outside is different for the halal menu to what was inside so I couldn’t even get the meal I wanted to have when sat down looking at the actual menus (also with altered prices to outside the restarting). I just had to resort to going for the veg meal offered since the waitress couldn’t really get what I was asking. I ordered the stir fried green beans for 15 pounds. The order came and was just a plate of green beans… FOR FIFTEEN POUNDS. I was just shocked and had to resort to sharing some of my friends’ food. I also tried to ask the waitress about the noodles and if they could alter the ingredients and she didn’t know what I was saying. They should not be leaving a false impression of a stir fry for fifteen pounds and rob me of a meal. Bearing in mind a plate of green beans was the most expensive thing we got compared to full bowls of noodles. Absolutely ridiculous will not come here again and I don’t recommend.

The best BBQ I’ve ever had in London! ! Especially their mutton kebabs, which are crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, with no fishy smell at all, which is amazing. Everyone, hurry up and rush to their self-service barbecue event~

Unexpectedly, the flavor restaurant actually held a barbecue buffet event! There are many types of skewers, the meat is fresh and tender, and the seasonings are just right. Highly recommended! !

The kebabs are very unique and I will go home in a second. Especially the mutton kebabs are very delicious and highly recommended.

nice Northern Chinese food，good service and environment

summer limited edition bbq buffet is nice, good food and tasty. Welcoming service

We tried the all you can eat bbq set today. Love the bbq skewers especially the lamb and beef, very flavorful and well marinated with different spices! Can adjust spicy level if needed I think. High value with £32 pp me and my friend were super full and satisfied :)

I visited this Chinatown gem after seeing Zhang Linghe's recommendation, and it did not disappoint! The restaurant offers an expanded menu with hot pot, Beijing-style copper pot, grilled fish, barbecue, and various stir-fried dishes. We ordered a variety of dishes, spending under £90 for a feast. The highlights were the Mouthwatering Chicken, Mao Xue Wang, Kung Pao Chicken, and Lamb Skewers. Each dish was flavorful and delicious, making it a highly satisfying dining experience. Zhang Linghe's recommendation was spot on!

Simply delicious!!! I enjoyed the food sooo much! Authentic and tasty, the service was great as well. If you are looking for a Chinese restaurant, this place won't let you down! Already recommended to my friends.

I love the lamb and chicken wings BBQ. The beef noodle was delicious. And the soup with chicken and pork tripe is a must try.

Full range of dishes, great barbecue

Delicious, the grilled fish is huge

Real Beijing offers a commendable hot pot experience that stands out for its rich flavors and fresh ingredients. The variety of broths and the quality of the meats and vegetables are particularly impressive, making for a satisfying meal. However, the atmosphere leaves much to be desired. The decor feels somewhat outdated, and the dining area can get quite noisy, detracting from the overall dining experience. Despite this, the friendly and attentive staff help to make up for the less-than-ideal ambiance

It is in a good location and is family friendly. Food is authentic and delicious.

food: loved it so much. so much for such a decent price and the food encapsulates the authentic taste of chinese hotpot service: amazing customer service. waitress named Peany - the sweetest soul ever omg had to tip her due to efficient and friendly service! overall amazing however lack of table space but other than that instant 5 stars

We recently dined at this restaurant and had a wonderful experience. The ambiance is excellent, providing a comfortable and enjoyable atmosphere for families. The lamb skewers were incredibly flavorful and aromatic, truly a highlight of the meal. The cuisine here is distinctly Northern Chinese, and everything we tried was delicious. Highly recommended! ---

I’m lost for words Detail to food 100/10 Taste omg out of this planet Clean tidy Service was so impressive Love this gem of china

Authentic Beijing food and convenient location. A great choice of dishes and buffet hotpot. Have been there many times

Tried the grilled spicy fish and meat noodles. The fish was very dried and not tasty ad I ate in China and other Chinese restaurants. The meat noodles were fine. Overall the food was not fresh and tasty and a bit expensive.

Recommended by a friend, but a few of the dishes were disappointing... The tomato beef brisket is all tomato sauce, and the tomatoes are not stewed...

Quite rubbish service attitude. The restaurant I arrived at first, I had already asked the waiter to order. When the waiter saw the foreigners, he immediately walked over and told them the menu. After finally finishing talking, a group of six people came over to my place. They immediately left my table and went to explain the menu to them. extremely snobbish

Decent halal hotpot restaurant but choices were a bit small. The food was delicious however and I felt like the employees did not ignore our needs. We were serviced well and got everything we needed. One thing is that the temperature adjuster did not really work sometimes and it gets a bit hot in there. Sometimes hotpot restaurants have like fans to pull the heat vapour but they didn’t so it got humid. Also this has nothing to do with the restaurant but this one table kept staring at us heavyyyy it was weird but I loved this place. Try it out cause it’s halal and anyone who accommodates me deserves the world

The pot dumplings are so sweet...the eggplants from Disanxian are so hard...the Arctic Ocean is like water.

Friendly service team, tasty and varied food options, and a good atmosphere. They have a great selection of freshly-barbecued skewers which are great for sharing. Also the ‘guo bao rou’ is a must-order - fried pork with a sweet, sticky sauce. Great spot in the heart of Chinatown.

The Guobao Pork is my favorite old-fashioned Guobao Pork with Scallions and Ginger! 🌶️Spicy and sour kidney slices are a must-try if you love spicy and sour food! The sauce is really flavorful, and the kidneys are fried very tender. It goes well with rice🍚I ordered some vegetables🥬Vermicelli and cabbage are also good with rice.

Very nice place and delicious food

I’ve been looking for a halal hotpot for a very long time I managed to find this one and it was very nice a little bit pricy but you can eat as much as u want obviously I won’t recommend going if you don’t eat much as you won’t get your money worth of food , as for the broth I would highly recommend the mushroom one

Authentic Traditional Chinese Hotpot

Great chili oil. Biang biang noodles slapped

The best lamp Beijing hotpot in London

The service attitude is very good and the price is not expensive. I ordered boiled beef, cold spinach, and crab, which were all very delicious, and the portions were quite large. It is worth a try!

Really nice Chinese authentic food！ Grilled beef and hot pot are my favourite. Highly recommend

Had Beijing style Hot Pot today, love it! Highly recommend it!

Too expensive and food was ok but not that great to be honest

I recently went to the Real Beijing. I did not book inadvance and it was pretty quiet. I ordered the halal hot pot and I loved the food very much! The service was great. I didn't enjoy or feel comfortable when sat down. No leg space under the tables which resulted in a knee pain. Apart from the sitting issue everything else was great. Not suitable for anyone who struggles to climb stairs or needs leg room to sit comfortably and eat.

DO NOT COME HERE!! I had hotpot yesterday with a friend and we were absolutely shocked. Besides paying 32.80 per head for it the food was absolutely disgusting. The meats tasted like plastic and were very chewy indicating that they weren’t fresh even the vegetables were stale and the fish had a weird taste to it. The broths had no taste at all!! We also had to order 2 sauces which were an extra £2 each to try to give it some taste but oh my not even the sauces were nice. The cutlery was also dirty, full of dust. The toilets were also miserable! Pee all over the toilet like?? I promise you, you are much better off eating at New China 2 minutes from them. Cheaper and much much better.

The pot roast is sweet and sour and crispy, especially tasty, every bite makes you love it hard, the texture is especially delicious 😋

Fantastic and authentic Chinese hotpot. Excellent service by a young Chinese lady :)

Taste so good！will come next time for sure

My first experience trying hotpot and it was fabulous. The best service I have ever experienced. Thank you to Xxiafung she was incredibly helpful and attentive.

The place it is not the nicest. But the food it was pretty good. I went for the charcoal hot pot. I thought it was amazing the serving pan with the charcoal burning in the middle. The hot pot (chicken) had an amazing taste. Got veggies, noodles and meat to add. Definitely an amazing meal

There are very few options for a halal menu for hot pot in London, @realbeijing_london being one of them. The halal set menu consisted of a myriad of options from sea food to poultry to red meat and vegetables/mushrooms to choose from. The broth we chose were half and half i.e., half of spicy flavour and the other half mild. I now feel I could've done with only spicy one as the other was too bland for my taste. Having a hot pot after years brought back some college memories of chilly winter days. Overall I'd rate the food as 3.5/5 Service was a big disappointment at 2/5 Ambience 3/5 Set menu price 30 pp ( tad too much)

tasty! The hot pot is so fresh~~ and the price/performance ratio is very good!

tasty! The stir-fried dishes are delicious and the hotpot is also great!

It’s so nice to be able to eat copper pot shabu-shabu in London! !

This is a Chinese restaurant full of love, the first experience of Chinese restaurant came here and it was very delicious! I love the spicy Mao Blood Wanton here, it made me fall in love with Chinese food, also the BBQ here is very special, I recommend the Grilled Beef Skewers, my husband ate 10 skewers in one sitting, it was a perfect dining experience!

delicious! Strong Amway fresh meat wonton soup with shellfish in it🐚😍The Northeastern Lapi is really delicious beyond expectations, and the grilled chicken wings are my favorite! The slightly sweet taste is really great😋😋😇

I had beef hotpot(all you can eat) with my friend. The soup base was very tasty. They have real Beijing style hot pot! Would recommend my friends to try this one.

The same restaurant as Zhang Linghe! The dishes are really beyond my expectation. I highly recommend the twice-cooked pork and stir-fried vermicelli with cabbage. I went back to China in a second and it is so delicious! The barbecue is also super delicious. Currently, it ranks first in my mind as a Chinese restaurant for bringing foreign friends. The first choice restaurant to experience Chinese food, the taste is really authentic!!!

Great dining experience! The dishes are super fresh/service is very good/the Northeast food is very authentic👍🏻👍🏻

The atmosphere is fantastic, the BBQ is delicious, and the desserts are amazing. Had such a great time eating and drinking with friends!

The copper pot buffet is highly recommended👍💕 Recommend the lamb and scorpion pot bottom ~

So delicious!!!!! I love the hot pot~🥹🥹

Staff was friendly and accommodating but language barrier became an issue because they failed to get our order right 3 of three times. Thankfully we just ordered lots of menu items and only ate what was correct!

Went here again and got a free upgrade to the beef offal pot

It’s very good. Good food, good service. As a Chinese, I highly recommend! x.

Loved the copper pot hot pot here! The broth was super flavorful, and the ingredients were fresh and high-quality. The lamb was especially tender. The staff was friendly and helpful, making the experience even better. Definitely coming back!

Lovely place which does a buffet hotpot as well as standard dining option. The staff are very attentive and helpful and will recommend items based on dietary needs. Unlike a regular buffet where you can see the food and choose it yourself, here you have to tick the items off a sheet and the staff will bring it to your table. The decor is basic and has more of a homely 90s vibe, quite cosy on a rainy day though dark. The Sichuan peppercorn hotpot base seemed a bit mild compared to other places and the taste of the peppercorns were not as strong

The food is really tasty, the service was a little slow

Great place authentic Chinese food
