Xin Kai Restaurant in City of London, Westminster - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

The food here was fantastic. We stumbled upon this place after looking for somewhere nearby Kings Cross. We were nearly tempted by a few other restaurants nearby but glad we continued to Xia Kai. Whilst it has a very unassuming interior the food certainly made up for this. The menus are all represented by pictures and a brief decoration which was excellent. All 3 of us commented on how good it was. I’d definitely recommend finding this place and going for some lunch or dinner. I had beef in chilli oil which was probably one of the best Chinese dishes I’ve ever had in the UK! Go and enjoy the food.

If you are looking for some very good food and staying near Kings Cross, we highly recommend this place. The food was nothing short of fabulous. The crispy beef, chicken and peppers, and stir fried noodles were superb. Everything was lightly fried, crispy, and not at all greasy like you might find elsewhere. We are still reeling at how delicious everything was.

Basic decor. Tucked away at side of St Pancras Station. Great traditional food. Best hot and sour soup in town. Duck pancakes and other traditional choices. Sensitive to allergies. Adjusted my order to avoid prawn oil.

Excellent customer service and the food was fantastic. The place is nice and cosy. We will definitely come back. Thanks

This place was highly recommended by a friend of mine. The waiter recommended us the boiled fish in chilli oil as we love spicy food, it was heaven for us, seabass was very fresh, full of taste and texture. The lamb with cummin was also very delicious. Friendly and cosy environment. Would return for sure

Visited after reading the article on guardian and we were certainly not disappointed. Reasonable priced authentic north eastern cuisine, absolutely delicious and excellent service too. Highly recommended.

I'd read about Xin Kai in an article about a reviewer who praises 'local eateries' rather than top end. Upon reading the menu, my detective skills should have warned me .. photos of the dishes, the website wording 'Authentic North East Chinese and Sichuan Cuisine with tantalising dishes" didn't live up to expectations .. lots of chopped up red chillies on show, but little in the way of spicy warm sauce or oils. Rather disappointing.

Excellent food n service. Tasty meal . Visited having read the write up in the Guardian. Wasn’t disappointed. Will visit again
