The Good Earth in Barnet

It's my favourite Chinese restaurant by far. It's pricey, but you always get what you pay for. I have gone twice with the family, and we love it. The food is simply incredible. We always choose the set menu and then add some extra dishes. I recommend the sizzling dishes and the lamb. Phenomenal and definitely worth going as a special treat or to celebrate a special occasion. I guarantee you will leave with a smile on your face.

My favourite Chinese I’m sure there are better in town but the service, food and wine never disappoint.

Food was great and good service, will definitely be returning.

The food and service is very good. It’s a real treat. We really enjoyed everything.

Have eaten at Goid Earth MillHill many times food always excellent staff friendly and helpful lunch especially good value

Great food, attentive staff .. lovely family lunch. Not rushed and last family to leave the restaurant without any prompting. Absolutely recommend!

Food was delicious, original and varied, portions were substantial, service was prompt and friendly. But it was VERY noisy and VERY expensive. Despite that we'd certainly go again, in fact this was our second visit.

We went to celebrate my 70th birthday . The Lemon grass chicken was hopeless. Just boiled chicken slices with some lemon grass . Although we told the waiter he took no notice. A scoop of ice cream was given with a candle on it as a birthday treat which was hopeless . We payed a big bill but would not recommend. Staff unfriendly .Was a waste of our money . Their profit was more valuable than customer service. Would not be recommending this place to anyone.

Having booked a table 3 weeks prior, we found ourselves stuck in a corner hemmed in by too many tables. The restaurant was very overcrowded and the high noise level prevented any meaningful conversation. Clearly they won't turn custom away and just shoe-horn as many people in as possible. The food was nice but the portion size small and the prices were extortionately high. This was a restaurant l had wanted to visit for many years. l shall not be returning. Overall a very disappointing evening. Parking was crazy. The carpark is very small and we had to walk 5 mins when we eventually found a spot on the high street

We were a family ( including kids)of six, and enjoyed a lovely lunch. The food was delicious but as I knew in advance it was really overpriced, probably double a normal mid priced Chinese restaurant, so as long as one knows it’s not a problem. Service was excellent and efficient.

As always, the Good Earth Delivers. The linen table cloths, the china and the attentive service, as well as getting the order right, and of course the very tasty food, makes this a special occasion. In the past, the portions were a little small but not now. The vegetarian options are also excellent. They deserve their success. It's not cheap but then special things aren't.

We took our friends who are over on holiday, all enjoyed the experience

Delicious food,Egg fried rice,chilli lamb and spring rolls,I can definately recommend.Service is great,staff are friendly.

Extremely overpriced, vey small portions, felt totally ripped off. Staff hovering over you. Will never go again. Main meal portion, Singapore noodles were not even enough for the 7 years old. They even charged us for the extra chilli sauce. It was very small portion. So you have to order again. And had to pay £3.50 for 2 tsp of sauce. Ridiculous.

I've been coming to this restaurant for years. The food is consistently excellent and it's no surprise to see it packed full on a weeknight. An enjoyable evening!

I have passed this restaurant so many times over the years,and I'm gutted I have only just managed to have a meal here.. Service, cleanliness and the food was awesome. Food served with a friendly smile. Nice one

Amazing service and delicious food of the highest quality.

Love the Good Earth, Mill Hill. As always amazing food, service & ambience.

Excellent Restaurant, from start to finish staff super and food was absolutely delicious highly recommended

What can I say? This establishment delivers in every category. My family have been customers for over 20 years. Ken and his team are superb hosts and we always feel very well looked after.

Always an outstanding experience! Looking forward to the next opportunity to dine out at Good Earth!

Absolutely fantastic food and brilliant service thank you to Kam and his team for a great evening.

Best Chinese restaurant with the nicest staff, can't wait for my next visit.

For the amount they charge, think the food could be better. Had to send back some food twice because really salty and just not very tasty. Some of the dishes bland. Shame as used to really like it.

As ever, the Good Earth Team delivered superb food and excellent service. Not cheap, but you pay for what you get….and what you get is IMO one of the best Chinese offerings in London.

We have been coming to the Good Earth for special family occasions for more years than I would like to admit! Their service, ambiance and food is always wonderful. Yesterday they outdid themselves with such amazing service and made a loved one’s birthday extra special with a surprise desert, candle and good wishes. Your team made a special birthday an extra memorable one!! Thank you to your team We look forward to seeing you again soon

Best Chinese, best staff. If you want the traditional old school Chinese this is the place. Supersedes China Tang at The Dorcester.

Flying visit to see my sister in London best restaurant on offer for miles

Great food, amazing service. Will be comming back again.

I've passed this place many times so thought I'd give it a go. It's medicore for the prices charged per dish but lovely inside with good staff.

Staff pleasant and friendly, restaurant cramped and waitresses hurriedly dashing about, clearing up before you have finished. Food good, but incredibly expensive and not worth the price to be honest.

Amazing restaurant. Fantastic food

The staff are lovely, the food is exceptional though the pricing is high. All in all fabulous!

Lovely staff, delicious food and stylish decor. We always enjoy coming to the Good Earth and would definitely recommend!

Very friendly, 5 star clean, felt welcome at all times and the food is as always authentic with flavours and textures.

Nice enough people but felt very rushed. Spent around £180 for 4 people. A soup each and a main each + 3 cokes and a beer. Food was dire especially for the price, portions appalling. Bland and rather tasteless, had to ask for salt which is unusual for Chinese food as normally it is full of flavour. Wouldn't recommend, wouldn't return.

Over priced, under portioned, bland food. Tastiest thing was plum sauce dip served with prawn crackers. Was better 5 years ago when I used it fairly regularly. Would not reccomend it

The service we had tonight was incredible! The staff are amazing and the food was fantastic too. Would highly recommend!

Great food, great service and ambience. By far the best restaurant in the area.

Amazing food, fantastic staff, always a lovely experience 🙏

Visited for a birthday and, as ever, food and service were excellent.

This local icon is always very good with superb food and great service. For the price of the dishes, they could improve the wine list somewhat, certainly adding more high end diversity but otherwise, superb.

Always excellent and good is consistent Great service too. We love coming here

Basically after many years of passing the Good Earth and thinking that would be a good place to eat for a special evening meal. The opportunity arose this evening. Overall I wish we had waited much longer. The food reasonably prepared. But lacked any real taste of quality, to mirror the high prices, especially for the main meals. The level of taste was not that much higher, if at all than a good Chinese take away. The tidy bill, inflated by a 13% service charge, is unfortunately the only one we will be paying for at that particular restruarant.

Pleasant venue, excellent service, and many tasty items. We had a very good time, in including our six-year-old grandson.

Food was of a good standard but it didn't reflect the price. Portions were small. Presentation not great. For the price point, there are many better Chinese restaurants locally. The service was excellent. Friendly and professional. From the outside the restaurant looks extravagant but the interior doesn't match. We've been wanting to dine here for a long time so we were a bit disappointed. We wouldn't rush back.

I found the food takeaway standards. The wine was over priced. They keep trying to remove over plates I think they wanted go home.What a let down thank you for the experience.

Delicious food and excellent service.

One of the greatest Chinese restaurants in Greater London. Been a customer there for 39 years!

Fabulous service at a restaurant which offers food from different Chinese cuisinas well as a couple of Japanese favourites

Not only is the food perfect but the staff here really make this place, they’re so lovely.

Great food and faultless service however mains vastly overpriced. 13.5% service charge added seems steep given prices

Since I am little girl I always dined with my Grandparents.. since then my grandfather passed away and my grandmother to fragile to travel from Cyprus.. This was 3rd time my mother and I Started our nostalgia … It still such amazing location My only criticism they do not do delivery to my home address .. I would like to thank all the staff and their attitudes .. It is still such a family friendly restaurant and delicious food

The food at the Good Earth never disappoints, absolutely delicious.

Not cheap but always great quality and great staff and great ambiance.

We had a lovely time. The food was great but small portion on the sweet and sour chicken costing £22.50, just crazy at least make it a descent portion. You can’t beat how tasty the food is but it’s gone too far with prices and portion sizes. Just feel they are pushing for money all the time. Asking to get you a second glass of wine the minute your glass is empty. Also the chairs are so uncomfortable,

Amazing food as always! On the pricey side so keep for a special occasion

Fantastic & friendly! Love every minute of it! Food was amazing! Definitely going back

We'd been many years ago and thought it was overpriced with small to average portion size. We thought we'd try it again to see if things had changed as it was my wife's birthday. We were warmly welcomed and the ambiance was good but the main thing, the food was overpriced, tasteless and bland. A disappointing evening. Sad to say I won't be going back or recommending it to others.

As always excellent service and food...a must for food lovers

Stupendous overpricing. £40 for half a crispy duck, £25 for crispy beef. £11.80 for rice with diced standard veg. Food was average. Meat was wrapped in something soft and doughy. Average service and 13% service charge. Not 12.5% , let’s round it UP !

Horribly overpriced. Nice meal but not exceptional. Had to ask for hand wipes and tea which didn’t arrive

As always. The best Chinese food in the area by far

Top quality restaurant with plenty of available on street parking. The welcome was warm, staff friendly and attentive throughout our visit. Then there was the food. It was about as good as it gets. Portion sizes were generous and flavours exceptional. Not the cheapest restaurant by any standards, but as they say, you get what you pay for and we certainly got it. We will definitely be back.

Food and service was fantastic. Overall on the pricey side but for a special occasion it’s well worth it.

The Good Earth always delivers good food in a buzzy atmosphere. The sweet and sour dover sole is one of my favourite dishes. Parking is a challenge and the prices are the same as a Central London restaurant.

いつも素晴らしい料理とサービスです。昨日は娘の誕生日で利用しましたが、とても満足しました。また行きたいです。

As always the food was fantastic. An absolutely superb birthday lunch for my wife with friends. We couldn't have asked for more.

Came to celebrate my partners birthday. From the moment we walked in we were given such a warm welcome. The food was lovely and came out quick. Throughout the meal the service from all staff was exceptional. They even arranged a small birthday celebration for my partner which I was not expecting! We left with a lovely personalised good bye from both the gentleman in suits. A lovely place with exceptional service and great food! Thank you so much Good Earth! We shall definitely be seeing you again!

This place has improved so much in the last couple of years - great food, great service, great atmosphere - none of it could be faulted!

Lovely meal Good service. Just a bit quiet on a Saturday lunchtime

Good food but not the best and very pricey. Excellent service and ambiance.

It's been there forever, why? Because the food is great and it's not stupid expensive. What's not to like?

First visit to The Good Earth and it was a splendid experience. First class food, very attentive and friendly staff; a rare treat in this often average service industry.

We have been to the Good Earth many times over the years and it continues to maintain the highest standards

Amazing food prepared & served by real enthusiastic lovely people.

Always first class. Cannot fault it. Still priced on the high side

It's a great Chinese restaurant. We've been going to it for years. The flavors are excellent. I recommend it. Prices are a little higher than other Chinese restaurants in London but the quality is high…

Lovely food and super quick service. We really liked dining in af the restaurent. Only if rhere was parking, it would make it perfect.

Unfortunately, the food is grossly overpriced- our bill was £ 114 for two for one starter (the other starter never arrived), two mains, two rice, and one vegetable side-dish, a coke, a small beer, and a coffee Nothing justified that price In addition, the tables are far too close to each other.

Have been going for many years excellent both as a reasonable lunch and great revenue for family celebrations

Amazing food. But expensive at £50 per head and no alcohol ordered!

On Tuesday, Ma Po Tofu , Aubergine in spring onion and the Crispy fried noodles with Vegetable - all very tasteless. An unfortunate meal. Contrary to a few weeks ago on a Saturday when everything was delicious. Do they have different chefs on different days??

Good Earth is tried and tested and perfect every time!

Consistently good tasty food with friendly professional service . Very happy to recommend. Have been going to the restaurant regularly over many years .

great food, great service. Expensive but fairly priced.

We weren’t offered crackers and they rushed us for are table

Lovely atmosphere wonderful staff very attentive Excellent food Recommend everything

Excellent food,great service,superb steamed sea bass. I want to go again but it's eye-wateringly expensive so need to save up .

Visited this restaurant for my birthday. The food was so good, I only had time to take 1 picture, lol! Although very pricey you can see why when you eat the food. The staff were very helpful with one of our guests who had a nut allergy. Will definitely be going back and can highly recommend this restaurant

We had a wonderful 1st visit will definitely be returning.

Great Place for authentic Chinese food. Happy new year. 🐉🐉🐉🐉🐉🐉🐉🐉🐉🐉🐉🐉🐉🐉🐉🐉🐉🐉🐉🐉🐉🐉🐉🐉🐉🐉

Living locally - i have been many times over the years and it maintains its usual high standard - food and service excellent. lovely clean building

Probably one of the best authentic Chinese restaurants I have ever been too in the UK. Food tasted amazing, so fresh. The fillet steak was outstanding!!!

The customer service was great as usual. The food was lovely, especially the clay pot beef. However, I would avoid the set menu as it's not value for money. You are better off ordering separately. For example, you still get one normal portion of all mains regardless if it's three people utilising the set menu. Also, if you ordered the starters separately you get more. With the set menu, you get a single piece each. Three of us dined and ordered the set menu for £60 each. It would have been cost-effective to order individually. Apart from that we had a lovely meal.

The food is always excellent, the best Chinese , clean tasting , full of flavours , exceptional on every level , the staff are awesome always tentative , we come now at least one a month & it is always exceptional!!

Underwhelmed, the food was okay/average but unfortunately came out lukewarm. The service was very attentive and the food came out within minutes of ordering which was good and bad. Good for not having to wait but bad knowing that it wasn’t freshly prepared. The portion sizes were VERY small, we left the restaurant still feeling hungry and for the price I could have ordered 2-3 lots of each dish at a different restaurant. The atmosphere was unpleasant, the restaurant was very very hot, probably because of the amount of people they have squeezed into a small space. I wouldn’t recommend unless you’ve won the lottery and don’t mind lukewarm food and being extremely close to strangers.

We've gone to The GE at Mill Hill for some 41 years and it's always been wonderful food and attention. JEFF WAYNE

Nice food and friendly staff except for one who was rather unfriendly. Accommodating and polite

It never fails our expectations - food is always wonderful as is the service.
