Flawless! From the beginning to the end of our experience everything went very well. The service was perfect, the atmosphere calm and pleasant and the meal excellent. Don’t hesitate to take several dishes to share so you don’t miss any of the delicious flavors on offer.

This used to be one of my favorite Chinese restaurants in london. But in December 2023 it’s just horrible. Probably the worst Chinese food I had. The restaurant is literally empty, no one here besides us. The menu is full of crossed out items and layers of stickers of new prices.

What a great authentic tasting Chinese restaurant from the more Western region of China (Spicy). Great selection of dishes at a very reasonable price. A great find. I Will definately be back.

We love this place. The food is great and there's a huge variety of dishes with plenty of spicy sechuan options. The greens are fresh, the meat is seasoned well and the flavours are delicious. The staff are so nice and friendly and even let us stay late in the private room we hired because we were having such a good time. The venue is great and the atmosphere is relaxed and cosy. We keep coming back 😊

Wow. Tucked away just near Upper Street is an amazing Hunanese-Chinese restaurant. With a mixture of western favourites and more authentic food, generous portions, reasonable prices and friendly service it's not to be missed. For most people one portion of the egg fried rice will cheerfully serve two. Do yourself a favour and order at least one item from the Hunanese section of the menu. Whether you are going for authentic or not - don't miss it!

The worst Chinese food had in town. Very expensive for what I get. Premium price for very poor quality food. It’s defiantly not authentic. Unpleasant dining experience.

I went to the place for take away and ordered scallops and pork liver. The lady insisted cash only for 10% off - is this money laundry? ?When I came home and opened the boxes I was shocked by how poor the food quality was. I could hardly find any scallops ( just a few slices say 0.5cm nothing matched the photo on their menu) and the liver was very very chewy! Even worse that the chef used the same sauce for 2 different dishes! I doubt they just mixed the left overs from previous diners!! I can’t even think of that disgusting experience!!!

Yipin by name yipin by nature. Yipin means top quality in Chinese and the food was definitely that. Classic tastes of Hunan and Sichuan provinces. Lots of deep flavours with plenty of chillies and Sichuan peppers to give that mala (numbing spice) feeling. The staff are friendly and respectful and the space is clean. Tables are not placed too close to one another and we never felt rushed.

The food is average, service was awful and staff were extremely rude! I ordered sweet and sour pork with egg fried rice and my pork came out with my rice following 15mins after. I had cold pork and hot rice and no apology. Then when it came to the bill they automatically added their service charge on to it, which to be honest I would never have paid. Nothing impressive about the service that I felt deserved that money. They also kept forgetting items we had ordered. Safe to say I would not be returning to this place. Mediocre food and staff very rude. If you want good quality food and great service…Yi Ban is the place to go.

From Cantonese to Northern Chinese cuisine, they have it covered and the food served is just as the menu shows. If you prefer your Chinese food hot and spicy or the more "traditional" sweet and cripsy. Then you will not be disappointed. If you're disabled or mobility challenged the toilets are not friendly in that regard, that I have to mention. But the rest is great and the staff are very friendly.

I have eaten dinner at Yipin several times and been impressed every time. As I usually go with a big group I got the chance to try a large variety of dishes and can safely say that they were all incredibly flavorful (The Chairman Mao Pork is particularly good). Service has been consistently good and the prices are very reasonable - particularly as most of the dishes are pretty big. Definitely a good place to go if you are sharing food.

In the past we have always been exceptionally pleased with Dine In and Delivery from Yipin. This time however, very dissatisfied! They have changed from their own delivery service to Deliveroo. Their own website was trying it's hardest to infect my phone with a virus by trying to convince me I had won something, so after 2 phone calls, I attempted to order via Deliveroo. Deliveroo stated that Yipin was in Liverpool Street (which made me think it was a different restaurant) so after yet another call to the restaurant I tried to order via Deliveroo! I only wanted Duck Pancakes, but none of the prices were working on Deliveroo. I finally managed to order with the price nearly £20 for a quarter of duck!!!!! But I was prepared to order at that price as I was so hacked off and I thought of the quality of food. When the order finally arrived, it was the worst duck I have ever had. We shall not be Dining In or using delivery again from here again sadly!

Delicious and varied menu of Hunan/Xiang cuisine. This is one of the spicier cuisines of China, but unlike Sichuanese food, Hunanese use more fragrant chillies so you get a different depth of flavour than the mouth numbing feel of sichuan pepper. I popped by for lunch and ordered pig ears (gobbled them up before I could take a photo), smashed cucumber and dan dan noodles. Generous portions, really great flavours, it hit the spot after craving spicy Chinese food for weeks I really appreciated the range of cold offal on the menu. Will definitely come back with a group so we can order a range of dishes and share.

I was recommended Yippin through word of mouth and was not left disappointed. Every dish was bursting with flavour, with no overwhelming spiciness. If you're new to mainland Chinese cuisine you're sure to discover some new and exciting tastes. Perfect for group meals so you can order for variety and share. They also have private rooms for group bookings. Staff were friendly and the pricing very reasonable.

Agradable y bullicioso restaurante a pocos pasos del tubo Angel que sirve platos de Hunaneso, Schezhuan y Cantonés.El estilo de Hunanese es muy diferente de la comida china convencional e implica una gran cantidad de despojos y una gran cantidad de chiles que van desde verdes y suaves hasta pequeños rojos y ardientes.Estaba lleno la noche que fuimos, así que estábamos en una habitación lateral en una mesa para hasta 8 con un susan perezoso, que fue muy divertido ya que pedimos un lote. Demasiado pero lo hicimos lo suficientemente cerca como para terminarlo todo.Los puntos culminantes vegetarianos incluyeron raíz de loto picante fría, maíz dulce con piñones y chile, tiras finas de papa muy especiada y champiñones negros con chile y cilantro. Todos fueron excelentes, bien presentados y muy diferentes.Los aspectos más destacados de la carne incluyeron tiras de carne de res en comino (magnífico), carne de res con espárragos, panza de cerdo dos veces cocida y pollo Schezhuan picante (frío).El servicio fue amable y sencillo. Nos quedamos bastante tarde y no hubo ningún problema. Buena selección de vinos y uno de nuestros Pino Grigios favoritos. . . . . PrincipatoLa única confusión fue que mi amigo pidió una botella de agua y el camarero llegó con una botella de vodka.Definitivamente lo recomendaría altamente, pero no vayas a menos que te guste (al menos) comida muy picante.Estamos deseando volver de nuevo. Es hora de ser aún más audaz la próxima visita y probar algunos de los platos de medusas y despojos
