Nos gustaban los fideos, así que estábamos caminando viendo lo que se ofrecía, encontramos este lugar arriba en la plaza de comida callejera carnaby. El personal es muy amable y acogedor. Era nuestra primera vez aquí, así que nos ayudaron en qué comer y fue honestamente tan bueno. Sabores era excelente, los precios eran justos, los asientos eran amplios, sin duda volveremos aquí en la próxima oportunidad dada!

Ottima esperienza con piatti cinesi particolari, molto piccanti anche in versione mild ma molto saporiti e ben fatti. Locale spartano ma accogliente

Fantástico pequeño lugar. El servicio fue increíblemente amable y la comida era genial. Comí fideos con cerdo picado y garbanzos, su plato más popular. Los fideos eran agradables y firmes y el cerdo picado contrastaba con los garbanzos crujientes. Para ser honesto, podría haber habido algunos garbanzos más, pero pedí un poco de brócoli de lado, que resultó ser un buen movimiento. Otro buen movimiento fue pedir chile al lado (por lo que he visto de otras reseñas). Tienes que hacer cola afuera para entrar, lo cual es un poco extraño, pero tiene sentido para el personal ya que no hay mucho espacio para maniobrar adentro. Si estás comiendo solo, entonces puedes comer en el mostrador y podrías terminar charlando con la persona a tu lado. -Sí. Un gran lugar para parar y tomar algo de comida reconfortante.

Pedí fideos de res y pedí que los fideos y la sopa se empaquen por separado para evitar que los fideos se empapen. Sin embargo, el chef no solo rechazó groseramente mi solicitud, sino que también hizo un comentario racialmente discriminatorio, sugiriendo que solo una persona "problemática" como yo haría tal solicitud. Esto fue extremadamente insultante. Aunque aceptaron a regañadientes empacar los artículos por separado, lo que preservó la textura de los fideos, me consternó descubrir que cuando abrí la caja, la sopa solo llenaba aproximadamente un tercio del tazón, a pesar de que mi pedido era para dos porciones de fideos. Esto fue claramente intencional. Esta fue la peor experiencia gastronómica que he tenido. Aconsejo encarecidamente a los demás que eviten este restaurante para evitar faltas de respeto y mal servicio. ¡Por favor, no caigas en esta trampa!

Me encantan los fideos Chongqing así que Liu Xiaomian definitivamente estaba en mi callejón que he querido ir. Es un bar de fideos escondido ubicado dentro de un pub que me confundieron con fideos y cerveza. La ubicación no es exactamente atractiva porque no hay otros restaurantes o tiendas cerca. Cuando llegue, le recibirán con un pub situado en un maullido, al entrar sabrá que está en el lugar correcto, ya que golpea con el olor aromático de las especias de Sichuan. Para llegar al bar de fideos, se baja las escaleras donde es autoservicio y se pide en la cocina. La simplicidad del menú era buena, ya que solo hay unos pocos fideos para elegir: Hot and Sour o estilo Chonging y aperitivos. Lo que me gustó de Liu Xiaomian es que ofrecen el chile de lado para que de todos modos quien no pueda comer comida picante pueda apreciarlo. Esto es lo que teníamos: Fideos Chongqing con cerdo picado con garbanzos, Fideos de papas Calientes y Agrias y Gelatina de Hielo en azúcar morena. Fideos Chongqing: Fue mi primera vez probando fideos Chongqing no picantes gracias a la opción de chile al lado. La versión no picante fue sorprendentemente agradable, ya que se llega a apreciar de manera diferente y el caldo sabía a carne de cerdo en cuajada de frijoles fermentada roja. Agregar el chile los hizo aún más amarillentos, que es como se supone que saben, pero yo tenía el control de lo picante que era lo que estaba bueno. Algunos lugares usan guisantes / guisantes mullidos en lugar de garbanzos, personalmente me gustan los guisantes ya que soy inglés. Fideos de patata calientes y agrias: Personalmente no soporto los fideos de patata por la textura molesta pero fue la primera vez que disfruté del caldo porque era un bonito vinagre negro que usaban y el picante era el justo. La textura de los fideos de patata son como gelatina elástica suave que son molestos de comer. Sería bueno si te dejaran elegir los otros fideos en su lugar. Jalea de hielo en azúcar morena: Este fue un postre refrescante, pero más como una sopa, ya que obtienes trozos de gelatina transparente flotando en una sopa de azúcar morena con pasas y algún tipo de flores comestibles. Como me impresionó mucho, planeo visitar la sucursal de Carnaby ya que hay algunos artículos exclusivos allí.

Went there with my two pre-teen boys. Really lovely and accommodating hostess. And fabulous cracking food: an explosion of taste. Although I think the chillie heat level warnings are slightly overblown Fill your boots

Fourth time at this restaurant- it is a delight. The food is incredibly delicious and fragrant. Beware of the levels of spice - ‘mild’ is already quite hot!!

The restaurant is stupid. The waitress asked me to change a table when I’m eating the noodle. She said the table is booked. She didn’t tell me which table I should sit at the beginning and she didn’t ask me to change while I am waiting for the noodle for 10mins. Her writing is so ugly and it’s not at a right direction. No one would notice that. The interesting things of this restaurant are you need to deliver your food by yourself and change the table at the middle of dinning. 🤡🤡🤡 Never come back here. Stupid. Real Review for 100%

Very interesting. A must visit. A selection of Chinese Soups with choice of different noodles and fillings and the opportunity to blow your mind. As first timers we had the 'non spicy' choice with chili and vinegar on the side. Nice Soup and lovely tasty noodles. We would have the confidence to move up a notch next visit. We met a couple who were on their 5th visit and had progressed up the Chili pole. Lots of young Chinese (students?) here so it felt authentic and slightly exciting. The location in this lovely Pub hidden down a Mews makes it even more interesting. If you work locally do try this. Not expensive.

Visiting the Jackalope was in the top of our to-do list in our last trip to London. It's been worth waiting for! The menu is quite restricted, but the options that we picked were delicious. I got the Chongqing noodles (veggie option) and I shared with my partner a side of pork (mild-spicy) wontons. Both dishes were fabulous! They has Sichuan pepper oil, but at the same time the noodles and the wontons were not too-oily, and the amount of Sichuan peppers in the dishes was perfect. In my opinion, finding the perfect balance with these ingredients is an art that these people nail down. By the way, the noodles were among the best ones I have ever tasted. We also ordered a beer at the Jackalope bar and brought it downstairs. Affordable prices, delicious meal, friendly staff... cannot wait to come back!!!!

Delicious noodles in a savoury, spicy and slightly numbing broth. Just as they should be. My new favourite place. Management - please provide paper bibs to protect customers clothing as they slurp your lovely noodles

之前还在Spitalfields Mar ket的时候就去吃了,这次是专门找着去吃的。现在在一家酒吧楼下。环境很有意思。非常推荐碗杂面和老麻抄手。豌杂很软,肉也很香。老麻抄手很麻,味道正宗。冰粉上还有桂花,很清爽。

It's an establishment that has lost its tradition. The crab Linguine was drenched in heavy cream, garlicky and nothing refreshing. The Pappardelle lamb ragu was gamey and fully coated with oil. I am glad the ricotta ball saved the meal because the focaccia was cold and soggy. This is probably an unusual experience.

Excellent food, EXCELLENT service! Very attentive to the customers needs! Unfortunately, they do not serve egg drop soup (which is why I dropped in) but… the food was delicious and I left with my belly full!

I paid £11 for king prawn FRIED rice, but I received plain BOILED rice with prawns. The rice was very bland and fluffy. I contacted the restaurant and they agreed to send a replacement. However the rice was not much better. Very disappointing to spend £11 on fluffy rice I could've cooked at home. Avoid if you want tasty, authentic Chinese fried rice.

OK. Here we go......I bit my tongue on this one in the restaurant, as I hate to be the party pooper shaming my friends nearly 300 a head lunch. Food was well prepared, tasty, but was simply not generous enough. It felt like a light lunch despite going for the main event (and being TOLD we were having the wine flight), and although precise cookery, nothing really stood out. Mainly due to the lack of portion generosity (yes yes, I know it's Dim sum). The food came in fits and starts and we were never really party to the dishes' philosophies, inspirations or any technical explanations, other than the basic X with Y and Z and a few buzzy words you'd expect to hear in a high-end Asian eatery in London. Really quite poor service and atmosphere for this level of accolade, even if most of the service team themselves were lovely. Initially enthralling bustle of the many staff and humdrum of the kitchen (adjacent to our table) in reality made it hard to comprehend even the basic spiel of the offerings. I've done a fair few top end restaurants of late and this was scraping 1* in my view. Due mainly to the lack of pomp and ceremony amid the quite frankly average service, poor atmospherics, and lack of context (I appreciate these aren't the strict criteria). My main issues were the lack of transparency in pricing and the uninspiring wine program. Yes, we were given Dom Perignon 2013, as well as the more budget end of Schloss Johannisberg's riesling spectrum, but the wines to follow were easy to source from UK retailers, and simply mid-range gumph. We were not once offered any insight into their origins, and the rationale for how they were paired (with, admittedly, some complex less wine-friendly flavours). I'd have expected some more umami focused wines, and why feel the need to serve a red at all? The Sauternes with dessert was pleasant but it was young and easily sourced (from Majestic) for 15 a half bottle. Not exactly special or interesting. I'd have expected them to be serving something with some age, oxidation or distinct character if I'm honest, rather than the namesake 'badge of honour'. A couple of major hiccups that left us sour, a bit salty, and certainly not sweet.... 1) Asked if we fancied some Champagne before we kicked off....... it was tempting by the range on show, but luckily my friend queried the prices up front and we were simply told it's 37 per glass (I believe in reference to the Ruinart Rose. Woof). We quickly asked for alternative aperitifs and were presented with a cocktail menu at a shade less ridiculous prices. Of course, monsieur sommelier was not forthcoming with this and wanted to flog the pricey stuff. What a terrible way to build rapport with your customers at the outset. 2) The lack of pricing transparency continued to the conclusion, where we were offered a choice of 2 coffees. Little to our knowledge they were not included, and were priced eyewateringly at a respective 9.5 and 15 pound. Shameless. To boot, there was zero effort from anyone in the kitchen, or the latterly present main man, to greet or acknowledge us, and we never received the promised menus. I've corroborated my views with others' who have visited on recent occasions. The petit fours were delicious, but the plum shot will unfortunately last as a sour taint for much much longer than intended. No doubt chef and team have worked their woks off to get where they are, but I personally wouldn't venture back or recommend - maybe the 2* is a great ticket to 'single visit/ international churn', but in terms of sustaining a business and maintaining an enduring reputation, I doubt it's a very good strategy. Apologies if you're reading this and are past the pay wall of no return on your booking. My advice would be.....if you care about value for money or your wallet's contents, keep a keen eye on that pesky cheque, and certainly get your coffee round the corner.
