Traditional Cantonese-style dim sum, the dim sum is on par with ordinary Hong Kong teahouses, not bad! The place is elegant, clean and the service is friendly.

Very good food in a typical Chinese dim sum restaurant. The dim sum are home made. One can tell because they are fresh and made w good ingredients, while dim sum restaurants use l frozen package food. Ambiance of the restaurant wasn’t great, noisy w tired decor. Service staff were very friendly. One can tell the food is good when most customers were Hong Kongers

The food is pretty good, standard Chinese menu, service isn’t great, it feels like you’re putting them out asking for something. It isn’t cheap either. My wife and I have racked up a bill of over £120 on one occasion. But you know what, I’m not going there to make friends with the staff. I go there because the food puts a smile on my face, as long as I don’t order a lot. In addition to my previous post. I’ve just spent nearly £500 pound in this restaurant and they have the cheek to charge me for takeaway containers. What an absolute joke. They also charged £3 for extra chilli in one of the dishes. Daylight robbery if you ask me. If you value the pounds in your pocket, don’t go here. The customer service is terrible. I’m changing my star rating to one. awful awful awful.

We spent nearly £500 for 6 people and they insisted on charging us £3 extra for chilli and £2.50 for plastic boxes to take the surplus home. They spent the whole time hovering round the table trying to clear us out. I asked for a dish that was a variation on the menu of a £28 dish and was charged £45. When I asked about the bill they did NOT care about whether we had been before/ are likely return. Such a shame that the most authentic Chinese in the area is marred but such poor customer care. I won’t be returning.

A group of us came here for my grandson's birthday, his choice. My problem with Chinese restaurants is that they're so brightly lit which I find very uncomfortable (it hurts my eyes), also because of the bright lighting there's no atmosphere. The food & service were excellent. For starters I had deep fried aubergine & I had prawns for my main course. Two of us were non meat eaters & we both said that if we go again we'll had a large portion deep fried aubergine of as our main course, it was absoulutely delicious.

Before coming here, I was warned by a friend that I should look carefully at the price before eating. Because the restaurant is very crowded and they always want customers to eat quickly to catch the next customers. Many people have complained about the restaurant always "miscalculating" the price. 120 pounds for a plate of lobster and more than 60 pounds for 6 scallops. The price of drinks is listed on the menu but when calculating the bill, they always add £1-£2 to the price. They think customers don't know and will continue to do so! Be careful to check the bill when you eat here. Dishonest and I feel like I'm being cheated but can't do Anything!

This has been our go to Dim Sum restaurant almost a decade. The chef and the owner have always been excellent. Dim Sum is excellent and authentic Cantonese. The rock star dish is the stir fry beef ho fun is fantastic. Definitely a good dinner menu too. If my review is based on food alone, they will get 4+ stars. Staff and service is what you will expect in most Chinese restaurants. However a recent staff change resulted this poor review. As long as you are not Chinese, the head waiter/manager will happily greet you. You can’t miss this middle age with quite a distinctive hair style, thinning hair, pointy in the middle. Yes, the new staffs discriminate their own kind. If you made no prior booking, despite only 1/4 of the restaurant is occupied they will turn you away by putting you off by saying it is cash only (they do accept card of course). There is a cash point nearby, however it’s 800m away and out of service most of the time. It’s understandable if he made the assumption my family of 3 will order fewer dishes (less than £40). But being a fairly regular customer, other staff would recognise my family on average order 10+ dishes, bill comes to £80+. Honestly, I can’t remember when was the last time I carried £100+ cash on me since contactless and Apple Pay has been around. Perhaps bring along a non-Chinese in your party to be safe? It’s really a shame the recent experiences we had encountered meant we won’t be returning for a while.

If I can give zero star, I would. The restaurant food is below average, service is bad, and has this self-made-up rule of cash only on Monday to Friday and card accepted only on weekends (even if theg have a sticker on the front door to say that they accept visa or mastercard). £71 for three people is a reasonable price but I don’t think the whole dinning experience is worth £71, I think I would be happier and more satisfied eating in Nando’s or Mc Donalds.

After we corrected him, he took the juice away without any apologies!!!! And had a look at us as if we did something terrible! !!! 🤯 2️⃣ridiculous price!!! 3 bowls of steamed rice cost us 16.8 GBP!! They’re just normal steamed rice!!!🥲 3️⃣the stare. They stare at you as if you’re prisoners. Hospitality simply does NOT exist. 🥲 we’re so anxious when we eat, finish all the meals in half an hour 🥲🥲🥲 4️⃣all the food are in super small portion. we spend 89 GBP in total, three adult, I’m ok but my two male friends are still hungry after the meal. 🥲 My worst worst worst experience in a restaurant ever. You paid and you’re stressed and you’re still hungry. The manipulation and toxicity for god’s sake. I thought it was Chinese food, so I took my friends to eat it. Help me, this is really terrible. I have never been treated like this. Am I a guest or something, as if I owe them money. Don't eat it, whoever eats it will regret it.

Restaurant saved by the chefs for so many years. Slightly above average food, but overpriced. Super small portions. Not many alternative restaurants around the area. Service is consistently bad though, especially from the main waiter. We unfortunately always find additional item(s) not ordered on final bill. If it happens occasionally then can be a mistake but if it consistently happens, then we have to start doubting the integrity of the servers. No apology either when questioned. Discount if we pay by cash.

Genuinely shocked. An Irish family of 3 sat on the table next to us dressed in their Sunday best, looking to have a nice quiet family meal out together. Until the restaurant insisted they pay upfront. Nobody else in that restaurant was asked to pay upfront. All they could tell them was that it was ‘their policy’. No it wasn’t. White couple here. We weren’t asked to pay upfront. Didn’t see anyone else asked to pay upfront either. Now I know it would be naive of me to say I'm surprised this still happens as there are still of course rotten apples in the barrel when it comes to racism. But I am saddened to have seen it first hand. And even more upset at myself for not speaking up as I was completely speechless that it was happening in the first place. Disgusting behaviour from the restaurant. Shame as the food was good but will not be returning on principle.

It's not acceptable to setup a conditions to the restaurant of it's not advertised online. So we preferred no to eat because they were not very open in terms of customer service as a consumer.

The dim sum is incredible: order Siu Mai, chicken feet, belly pork, crystal prawn, chiuchow, chilli pork, rice parcels, smashed cucumber, clay pot, could go on - we’ve never had a bad dish here. We thought we’d hit the jackpot when we moved/found it in 2019 and didn’t have to schlep into Chinatown anymore. Service has always been fine, until our last visit when the Sunday manager was frankly abusive, wildly inappropriate and totally ruined what was supposed to be a birthday celebration. Go, get fed (very well!), get out.

so we had booked a table 2 weeks ago for 4 of us, we walked in and gave our name, the lady at the desk had a look on the computer and called over a man which looked like he was the manger, they had spoke in there own language then the man says .. I’m sorry but you have to pay now for your food, we said but we aren’t to sure what we would like to eat yet as we haven’t even looked at the menu, we also said is this the same for everyone here as we were so confused and none of us have had experienced this before, he then went on saying .. no because you are not regular customers, we explained we have cash and showed him and even said you can have a card, still no, we said to them so every time we want to order food or even more crackers we have to then pay there and then, and he’s answer was yes, I would understand if we were loud or not dressed for the “occasion” or underdressed for them, we are 30-40 year old and not going to run off over a Chinese that was recommended to us!

this used to be a reliable local saving us from going to Chinatown in London but the service and atmosphere has gone way down. The day we went was meant to be a celebration of a recent engagement but it was ruined by the waiter coming to our table every 5 minutes giving us a countdown of how much longer we could be there for - Despite the fact that he was still serving us our food. he started this from a 25 min countdown. really rude and I gather from other neighbours that this has happened to them too,. This is not how to make your customers feel welcome. In fact so bad that one household refuses to ever go again. I am hoping that manager will read this review and do something about the service.

poor food and one waiter was very rude!! I recently dined at this restaurant and had an extremely unsatisfactory experience. The quality of the food was poor, and the prices were on the higher side. However, what disappointed me the most was the service. The attitude of the staff made me feel disrespected, and they seemed more interested in upselling rather than ensuring a pleasant dining experience. Throughout the meal, I was approached by four different servers, all trying to sell me the same dish, which made me feel very uncomfortable. It appeared that their primary focus was on sales rather than providing good service. What surprised me the most was that the server directly asked my child which juice they wanted while we were ordering, which was clearly inappropriate. I not only felt dissatisfied but also deeply disappointed with the restaurant's service and food quality.

My favourite Chinese **Amazing food** I love this restaurant. My husband and I sometimes eat in however every Friday we visit and get a take away. First the people are lovely and friendly. We order hor d oeuvres. So the salt and pepper squid is so fresh and tasty. Good quality food. Usually I dislike spring rolls in all Chinese places but the spring rolls are obviously hand crafted. They and mushroom and the most amazing flavours. So addictive. My husband says I’m a creature of habit but only if it’s as good as Imperial china’s food. So main course we have fillet beef and asparagus. Again amazing cooked to perfection. Perfect succulent beef and large thick tender asparagus. If I had one negative thing to say I’d like a bit more in the portion size for the money. They give free prawn crackers to us and chilli oil. Try it You will love it!

Extremely poor service. I am now avoiding this restaurant even I crave for Dim Sum or just drive a bit further. There are just so many unreasonable rules each time we go and they add new ones every time. - 1.5hr dining time - get rushed to order - only allow to make 1 order, waiter explained there wouldn’t be adequate time to place another order. - charge £3 for a glass of hot water (assuming that’s to make customers to order drinks) - charge £3 for chilli oil for the table - accept cash only

A branch of the Imperial China in London’s China Town. Nice to have one in Teddington serving the same great quality food. Really great place for dim sum. Everything tasted very delicious and freshly made. Tried many dishes such as soup pork dumplings, chicken claw in black bean and chilli, steamed spare ribs in black bean and chilli, char siu bau, fried beef ho fun noodles, stir fried morning glory and other dishes which were all very good. Fast and efficient service. Not cheap but authentic Chinese food.

Definitely one of the best dim sum places outside of China Town and we have loved coming here for their excellent food. However, like other recent reviewers have mentioned, the portion of the dim sum dishes have shrunk noticeably compared with just a few months ago, and together with the increased price, it is becoming difficult to justify coming here. The quality and the taste of the food, thankfully, have not changed. Edited 2023: still the best dim sum around.

I am not a fan of yum cha. But this place gave me a positive surprise. The food was full of flavours because it was freshly made; its ingredients were genuine and substantial, better than many restaurants in Hong Kong. But the booking time slots were very strict on the weekends. And you cannot stay more than 90 mins. Besides, they accept cash only.

Quite the worst customer service I have experienced. I made a mistake and called up literally a minute after to change it and they said it’s fine to change it with them without any issues. Twenty minutes later they call me to say it’s already been delievered somewhere else and I should try to use the app?! I would have cancelled it but they assured me that it’s all good until the food has left the place. Very rude, I tried to find out why they didn’t let me know earlier but I guess they wanted to get their money. Eventually they just hang up on me. No sorry, nothing. Because of that I’ll advise you to not order because clearly they can’t manage with an issue and are very impolite. I certainly will never order food from here even if it was the only place open left!

They forgot to put one dish in the bag. They were very apologetic and send it out immediately. Consistently a good standard of food.

Food came very late without any updates on when it would come and was cold when it arrived
