Very good British restaurant. They have this long list menu where you have to tick the dishes you would like to order. I’m confused. The worst part was the technoafro playlist. But they makes this offer of 20£ for the afternoon tea. I recommend it

They have a gluten free menu and take it seriously. This was a major reason for choosing the restaurant, so it is very good for coeliacs. The food tastes great. I think the portion sizes are a little smaller than one might expect but you can still good a good value meal with drink for £25-30 per person.

We went there for a catch up dinner with friends and sat outside. The staff were accommodating and friendly but the food was really disappointing and massively overpriced. The set menu came in at close to £17 and I would’ve been disappointed if that had just been the starter. For that price you get six small bites of Gyoza (two of them were over fried and the rice rapped in a leaf was pretty much inedible). The meal was finished in 5 minutes and you’re are 90% as hungry as you were when you sat down.

Lovely atmosphere, accommodating, polite and very helpful personal. Our waiter kindly explained how the menu ordering slip worked, removed any food allergy related dishes from the menu and respectfully answered any questions we asked about the food and drinks. He also checked up on us and the food during our meal. The food was deliciously fresh and tasty. Perfectly suitable for 3 people sharing several dishes, if you would like to try several things. What the Honey glazed spare ribs and Shanghai chicken noodles lacked in taste the spicy dumpling sauce certainly made up for in spiciness. The Crispy duck spring rolls, Black Pawn and Chicken & cashew nut dumplings were perfect and so were the drinks. Slightly on the pricey side considering the about of food. But they have great deals to be aware of.

OMG, This was by far the worst meal we have ever had, the Chicken bites were like McDonnell's dippers except greasy and a watery sweet n sour sauce that was favorless, the noodle dish was abysmal, really don't want to describe as want to forget, Spoke to the Manager who agreed with us and gave us a full refund on the food and said he was leaving due to so many complains, The rest of the staff couldn't care less. The menu type was ridiculous 12"x 3" and a pencil to mark what you want. Never again, ruined our evening and went to bed hungry and annoyed.

We had a pleasant enough meal at Ping Pong but ultimately it was rather frustrating. We were a party of 4 but most dishes come in 3s and there is no flexibility to order 1 extra unit. So annoying. Then, the bao buns come in a portion of 4 (!) but the chicken to put in the baos was cut into 5 pieces (!!?) I’m not so egocentric that I think this was designed to irritate only us, but it does feel like it… We’re waiting for the bill and I’m sure that it will feel high for the amount of food we received. I don’t remember being disappointed in Ping Pong before but maybe other people ordered for me and they somehow knew how to deal with this? I was visiting with friends from Luxembourg and it was just all a bit inconvenient and embarrassing, trying to split items or order more. I’m sure this was not what Ping Pong’ is aiming for.

If you’re in London and have a craving for dim sum, Ping Pong at St Katharine Docks is a must-visit. Nestled by the water, the restaurant offers a charming blend of contemporary Asian decor and the lively atmosphere of the docks. Here's a detailed breakdown of my experience: The Good: Ambiance and Setting: The location is absolutely stunning, with outdoor seating that provides a lovely view of the docks. It’s perfect for a relaxing meal, especially on a sunny day. The interior is stylish, with a modern, chic vibe that still manages to feel cozy and inviting. It's a great spot for a date night or a casual meal with friends. Food Quality: The dim sum here is exceptional. My favorites were the prawn and chive dumplings and the char siu buns, which were freshly made and bursting with flavor. The crispy duck bao is a standout, with perfectly cooked duck and a delightful hoisin sauce that had me savoring every bite. Vegetarian options are equally impressive. The mushroom and spinach dumplings are not to be missed. Beverages: The cocktail menu is creative and extensive. I tried the lychee and rose martini, and it was a refreshing choice that paired wonderfully with the dim sum. For tea lovers, the pearl tea is fragrant and a perfect accompaniment to the meal. Portion Sizes: The portion sizes for some dishes are smaller than expected. While the quality makes up for it, you might find yourself ordering more dishes to feel fully satisfied. Tips and Recommendations: Reservation: Make a reservation, especially if you plan to visit during the weekend. The place gets quite busy, and having a reservation ensures you won’t be waiting too long. Try the Seasonal Specials: They often have seasonal specials that aren’t on the regular menu. These are worth trying as they use of seasonal ingredients. Outdoor Seating: If the weather is nice, opt for outdoor seating to enjoy the view of the docks. Sharing Plates: The dim sum portions are perfect for sharing, so go with a group and try a bit of everything. Overall, Ping Pong St Katharine Docks offers a delightful dining experience with high-quality dim sum and a great atmosphere. Whether you’re a dim sum aficionado or trying it for the first time, this spot will leave you wanting to come back for more.

The food and service are both first rate. The wait staff is friendly and eager to make your dinner special. The place is clean, and the food is phenomenal! The menu is diverse, lots of dim sum options. My only complaint/suggestion? The restaurant as a whole is LOUD!!! One table had a woman whom I believe was laughing extra loud on purpose. I wonder what her friends think? What poor taste on her part. All in all, I just can’t give the restaurant 5 stars. When that woman left, some more people came and it stayed as loud as ever. It’s small and too many tables. But like I said they have a great menu. If you go, choose an off time.

We went in for lunch on a weekday. There is a general menu- and then there is the weekday lunch menu- wherein you get a bento lunch tray for just 11£- a steal deal for the amount of food. You can choose options between veg/non-veg. Do Request for chilli sauce on the side. The veggie spring rolls Were delicious, So were the dim-sums. Loads Of seating available- and the place can get loud because of the acoustics- but you will enjoy the meal anyway!

Beware false advertising. We went for their lazy sumday offer and i was looking forward to trying some of the vegetarian dishes. However we were advised that the fried veggie options were fried in the same oil as meat, rendering them NOT vegetarian. One of my party follows a halal diet - some of the dishes are marked halal but they cook it in the same oil as pork so NOT halal. The waitress was helpful and the drinks were okay. Atmosphere was very very busy.

This was our first time and we needed some explanation on how the menu works. The waitress was helpful and explained everything but after we ordered I don’t know what happened- our salad, rolls, edamame, ribs came after dim sum. It came out to be very pricey for 3 people - the portions are extremely small. So if you can go back on Sunday - they have a better deal. For us it was one time deal because we were just visiting.

Used to go here on a regular basis but the food of late seems worse and the prices have increased. Still alright but not worth the money in my estimation. They add on the ' voluntary' service charge and VAT??!. This will increase your bill by about £10 if you've had a decent sized meal.

Nice to be able to walk in and get a table straight away. Lovely area looking over the dock too! It was our first visit and the service was very absent. We had no explanation of how to order and had to work it out ourselves. You order via a form that you tick what you want. We ordered the special soup dumpling, duck spring rolls and honey rice bowl, all were lovely and fresh too. The best dishes we had were the Katsu curry boa buns and the char siu pork buns they were so flavourful. The park crackers are a must too. The let down was the prawn dim sum, they had an odd taste and the cocktails were a bit too ‘out there’, one even had a weird texture. Would definitely come back but would like more attentive service and an explanation of how to order would be great.

Dinner last night was disappointing. The place was far too hot. Acoustics are terrible - it was by no means full but we had to shout the hear one another. Servers were sullen and not especially helpful. Food was so-so but I can buy my own frozen dim sum from Wing Yip for a fraction of the overpriced offerings here. Definitely not worth the £160 bill for two people in my opinion. Not likely to be back when there are so many other better options on St Katharine Docks and nearby.

Unlike other times this experience (at Ping Pong St Katherine Docks) was horrible. Talk about bad customer service. Rude and slooowwwww is the best way to describe the service. We arrived at 7.40 pm on Sunday and were tired and hungry. Ordered food within 5 min of arriving. Here is the summary of our experience - Ordered 2 seaweed salad - they gave only one. The other was 12 min later upon asking - Ordered duck spring rolls for my daughter which arrived 40 min later (she wanted this for starters) - requested chilli oil for 2 of the adults and the waiter was very reluctant to bring the second small plate of chilli oil. Then she came and informed that if we really like it, Ping Pong sells it to take it home but still didn't get us the second plate. Had to ask another waiter to do so. Black Prawn dimsum is not part of the lazy dimsum anymore. Neither is Pork xiaolongbao. The waiter then just stopped serving and we had to literally find a waiter around. Thunk the staff was short. Moreover, 2 of our favourite have been removed from the lazy dimsum menu. After this point everything was taking at least 20 min after ordering. We were there for around 80-85 min and most it was waiting. We left tired, not satisfied and very upset for the service that we received. Also a decision to never to lllcome back to this place has been reached. (Almost after 12 years since we started to come

we booked for New Year's Eve. On arrival, we were asked if we had been before (no) and then were not explained the menu and how it worked. after ordering we were told it was too late to order from the Sunday menu deal that everyone else in the restaurant was ordering from so we paid 3 times as much as everyone else. The food was ok, nothing special and the service was curt and seemed to not want to be there ... would i go back, obviously not, why not look after your customers?

The senior staff member exhibited unfriendliness, creating an awkward atmosphere. Although the food we ordered arrived promptly, the portion of curry sauce accompanying the chicken katsu and tofu katsu was insufficient. We found the dumplings to be tasty. When we requested extra curry sauce to prevent the katsu from being dry, it took them a while to bring it, resulting in the food becoming cold. Additionally, the provided curry sauce, even after the request, was still in a tiny bowl and remained inadequate. The soup dish lacked flavor, and despite having enjoyed Ping Pong in the past, we have decided not to return based on this experience.

I ate here on 13 November; was feeling absolutely rotten and was warmly welcomed inside even though it looked impossible to remove the tissue from my streaming nose. The food came quickly - was piping hot, and the chicken noodles in particular were welcome respite (as much as I could taste with no sense of smell!) I wanted to leave this review as there was one young woman, a trainee whose name I believe started with a C - I promised I'd leave her a review as her service was so exemplary. She was kind, genuinely thoughtful (not the standard, offhand "Oh, how's your food going?" - her level of care was "I can see the sun's shining onto your table, would you like to move so it doesn't get in your eyes and bother you?") and constantly buzzing around all the tables in her area. I'm so sorry I've forgotten your name, but you were truly wonderful and I hope you go far in this business! All the best, Lila

Ristorante cinese praticamente "sotto" Tower Bridge a Londra. Grandi spazi un pò asettici così come il servizio un pò "distante". Menù ampio come sempre nei ristorante etnici asiatici.

Great place for Dumplings and Bao! The prawns here are really good. The wait staff were very helpful and patient with us, overall a great experience! Unfortunately I had to remove 2 stars because of the classic guilt-based service charge. Any restaurant that automatically adds a 'tip/service charge' loses my approval. A tip should be my choice, not imposed on me and reliant on my guilt to pay it.

I recommend making a reservation for dinner at this location as it seems to be popular and seating is tight. Fortunately my friend and I were able to be seated without a reservation and with a minimal wait. The hostess and server both enquired about food allergies and brought a list of dishes that was suitable for different types of allergies- very helpful! We were advised to order 5 or more dishes - tasting menu style. We had soy marinated chicken skewers of with smoky orange sauce, crispy duck spring roll with hoi sin sauce, char siu pork bun, pork & prawn siu mai and spicy chicken dumplings. All of the dishes were delicious. My favorites were the spring rolls and chicken skewers. The pineapple, coconut, lemon lime lychee mocktail is refreshing - a must try.

Best Dim Sum in London!!! The flavors are rich and satisfying. You get to try so many different ones, as they are 3pieces each, and not expensive at all. We had maybe 9 different types, and enjoyed them all. Also, the jasmine lilly tea is really good: Watching your jasmine bloom in your teapot is a thing of beauty. I hear it's half off if you go before 5 pm, but I don't know how true it is. The service was good: we walked in on a Friday evening without a reservation and were promptly seated. The host offered to store my small suitcase, which was really sweet. Within 10 minutes of sitting down, we began receiving our food and drinks. I think the idea of marking your order on the menu was really cute. I enjoyed the experience. The location is great, offering nice views and allowing you to people watch. The restaurant itself is nicely decorated and vibrant. I definitely will bring my friends back here.

Came here for lunch one day in the week. It wasn't that busy and there were plenty of tables available. The menu had a large variety of dishes to choose from. You select which you'd like on a printed form on the table. The dishes we chose were good. However we slightly over-ordered. The waiters' recommendation of 5 dishes for two was a bit much when one was a large portion in itself (the Chicken Katsu). But otherwise no complaints.

Dined at this establishment today and was met with a vibrant and loud ambiance, which may not suit everyone, especially those in search of tranquillity or those with ADHD. The cuisine was notably hot and flavoursome, with the fried chicken and dim sum standing out in particular. Giving it a well-intended 5 out of 5 stars. While the food was delightful, the location right by the marina does come with a premium price tag. Tables are rather closely packed, and one has to mark their choices directly on the menu. A minor gripe was the noisy chairs when moved across the floor. The staff were truly cordial and accommodating, though there was a small hiccup when my left arm got sprayed with cleaner during a clean-up. While the staff could check in a tad more frequently for refills or general satisfaction, it doesn’t detract from their overall affability. A good dining experience, albeit with a few nuances.

Would not come back to this place where the food is over priced and it’s not true Asian inspired at all. The noodle is like a pasta pretending to be Asian. Dumpling is skinny and the sticky rice is miniatures of the original. Service is slow like a turtle despite the restaurant is only 1/3 full.

During our London stay we went back to Ping Pong for dinner on three occasions as it was nice and handy to our accomodation. Each time we were promptly greeted and shown to a table by the friendly staff, the first night we were shown how to order from the menu, and we were impressed that when informed about a shellfish allergy I was given a listing of what I could safely eat. The meals were really good on each occasion and reasonably priced. All done with a friendly smile. Pats on backs to all the Ping Pong staff.

A big ‘meh’. Waiting 10 minutes to be seat. After 5 min a waiter told me : hey my manager will arrive soon for you. Never arrive and at the end the same waiter seat me. The restaurant is kind of a Chinese tapas. Really strange but I never been there. At the end I took a portion a broccoli with the special menu worth 14,95 a glass of wine and a iced lemongrass tea. Broccoli 5/5, wine 5/5 and iced tea 5/5. But the main was strange and I try hard to understand what I eat as no one presented me the plate. Service was practically absent, no waiter come to check with me. Really disappointed. I’m not going to be back and for 30£, on my opinion there are thousand of better restaurant outside there.

Food: The food was fine but there were some really high highs and some really low lows. Highs - the beef gyoza, the noodles and the katsu curry. The lows - the chicken xiaolongbaos were stuck to the paper and it was really difficult to pull out... The shaomai and char siu baos were acceptable and the rest were just ok. Service - Unfortunately, this is where me and my fellow diners expected better. We got asked to sit outside which is no big problem as we were a walk in table. However, the issues started to rise when we spent at least a solid half hour to 40 minutes waiting to be served and without an online ordering system it was ineffective. We felt that we more or less forgotten by our waiter. It also took a very long time for us to get our food and my other friends to get our beers as well... As we felt an extended prolonged wait. I had told the waiter that I had a buckwheat allergy just incase as it can be pretty common in South East Asian food, but he didn't try to make an effort to figure out what it was and just stood there confused and didn't make an effort to ameliorate the situation. We understand that a Saturday night service can be very busy and take a while to serve up the food. However, it probably may have been a suggestion to tell that to our table as it took a very long time and we had to take the initiative multiple times to get our food and we saw that a table that ordered later than us got their food faster. It was only very late on that a server told us the kitchen was backed with orders, but this should be done much much earlier in the service and not extremely late on. Again, we understand that food can be delayed due to a schedule but we just didn't appreciate the fact that there wasn't any updates in regards to when it will arrive, or the fact we felt that our server just entirely forgot our table or was way too busy that night. It could be a lot better. The only one saving grace on the service was the waitress who I unfortunately forgot to get the name of who did a wonderful job in stepping up and making sure that we could get our food and be updated on the situation. Atmosphere: Due to the service, we also felt that the atmosphere was dampened as well. It was fine, and a good night to sit outside. It's not particularly spacious but it's not the worst. Overall, this wasn't a good experience and compared to the other branch in Waterloo, this was a disappointing experience.

The service and vibe was very nice. And the food was very good. Not too expensive and a very good service. It was crowded for a Thursday afternoon but still everything was served fresh and in time Nice view at the harbour next to the Tower. We definitely will return here when in London!

My friend and I went for bottomless brunch here last weekend, and we had a great time. Good variety of food for different dietary requirements, and very friendly and attentive service - I will definitely be visiting again

Food was not fresh. Tasted like it was frozen and unfrozen many times.

Great service by Henock! Made our visit pleasant by helping us make sure we got our order right. Ping Pong he deserves recognition for sure! Also, the food was great.

Lovely spot to grab dim sum! Good selection for vegans too. It’s a slightly pricey treat but they do have some specials that go for a reasonable price. The service was perfect, specially from the lovely Henok!

A short quick lunch in a small Chinese restaurant. Especially the Ping pong crispy chicken was very tasty. We were pleasantly surprised.

Heerlijk gegeten. Even een misverstand met de allergie kaart. Er staat op wat je wél kunt eten bij een bepaalde allergie. Erg vriendelijk en behulpzaam. Ik kom graag nog eens terug

Portion sizes are small and take a while to arrive. Chicken Noodles felt like a spoonful of dog food mixed with big soggy noodles that are impossible to eat with chopsticks. Ordering system is atrocious and not worth the novelty (it's just a menu where you tick what you want, but we ticked something twice to order two but instead got one). Service was really poor, we were never approached by any staff to ask if we were ready to order, and like I mentioned above, they got our order wrong. We won't be returning.

Never been to this place and the menu looked good. We ordered quite a few dishes and enjoyed them so much we ordered two more. It all tasted great. Service was friendly. The waiter noticed we were exchanging gifts and so asked if it was a birthday. He then brought a complimentary chocolate fudge with ice cream and a candle to finish - how did he know it’s my favourite dessert! Was quite expensive but we did have a lot of food so fair enough. Would return and maybe order a bit less next time. Highly recommended.

We tried the interesting dim-sum afternoon tea concept. While we liked the savory selection, we enjoyed the sweets and the drinks less. I would probably try just to order dim-sum a-la-carte next time. The service was friendly. It didn't stand out, atmosphere/food/drinks wise, but it was not overcrowded and had long opening hours which was nice and convenient on the other hand.

The food was good if you want dim sum but I wasn’t really blown away by anything. The service was okay verging on good, but again nothing special.

The place is great and well locat but the food is overpriced and not that good. If you are looking for a great dimsum restaurant where you ended full keep looking. I order two small chirasu bao and 3 xialongbao for 16£.

Really enjoyed the food, I'm not a connoisseur of dim sum, but tasted pretty similar to dumplings etc that I've eaten in China. Service was friendly and good. Pretty happy that all the more conventional places nearby were full, give it a try! Just order the preset selection from the top of the menu if you're overwhelmed by the choices...

Best little restaurant in Whitechapel. Shell on king prawn curry is one of the best curries I have ever had and the beef is bhuna excellent. Parathas are buttery and gorgeous. Love it. Next to Greggs opposite Barts hospital. Basic inside but the food speaks for itself.

Service was great but the food itself was horrid. Took one bite of my meal and the doner meat meal (mixed) was different temperatures, with the lamb being cold and the chicken being lukewarm. Overall taste wasn't there either. Very likely that I caught acute food poisoning.

Gutes Filipino Street Food, was man in der Form sehr selten ist. Es gibt eine kleine, aber feine Auswahl und die Location ist top! Ein Must-try
