Zheng in Kensington and Chelsea

Don’t let this restaurant’s unassuming exterior fool you — this place is a gem! We stumbled across Zheng rather by accident, but we’re very glad we did. The interior transports you to a palatial Malaysian paradise, which creates a fantastic atmosphere. The impeccable service from the kind, attentive waiters, makes you feel like royalty. The wasabi prawns were exceptional and plentiful: juicy and smothered in a creamy wasabi sauce. By recommendation, we ordered the Godmother Chilli Peppercorn, and it did not disappoint. The egg fried rice was the best I have ever eaten. I could have happily eaten several bowls on its own, such was the quality of the cookery. The Singapore noodles were fantastic too — aromatic and spicy in equal measure. The tapioca dessert topped off the meal. Bouncy tapioca morsels combined with brown sugar and milk, while appearing simple, was packed with flavour. Yes, it is an expensive choice, however, it was well worth it for a memorable, magical experience.

Martin and Linen great members of staff. Great customer service. Did everything they could do make sure we were happy. Will definitely visit again. Tasty food.

It was our first time there and we will definitely be back. I wanted to try everything and the final choices were all delicious and well presented. Good food, friendly staff and a little photo memento of the evening was given.

Great service by staff, very friendly and amazing food. I will definitely visit again and recommend to friends and family!

Visited with my friend and the food was amazing. Absolutely excellent. We enjoyed every dish. The staff were so attentive and friendly. They even offered to take a Polaroid pic of us for us to keep, which was such a cute gesture. Would def recommend and visit again.

First time here and loved the food here. The service was really good. Loved the Aromatic duck. Food was on time and even brought my toddlers food quick. Loved the idea of taking polaroid pictures for us to take home.

This was one of the best meals we had in London. The food was delicious, excellent wine selection, lovely atmosphere and the owner was wonderful. We just wish we’d discovered it earlier so we could have gone more often during our stay!

This was not a planned visit to Zheng as the place we wanted to go was full so went here instead as it was raining. Looking at the menu, they serve Modern Malaysian and Chinese dishes at a finer level being in Chelsea and for that price tag. I was not too keen on having Malaysian dishes that day so opted for Mapo tofu with rice and Admiral Zheng's wasabi prawns. For drinks, we had Jasmine tea and Sirap Limau. The Sirap Limau tasted like lipsticks and was very syrupy but I expected that hence my choice was Jasmine tea. The Jasmine tea was actually ok but the first cup poured by the staff just tasted like water because the tea leaves had not steeped properly. Moving on to the food, the Wasabi prawns delivered as they were delicious, although it was a simple dish, the prawns were big and bouncy with a crispy coating smothered in a sauce which tasted of wasabi with salad cream mixed in. The Mapo tofu was to my liking because it was chicken and not pork with a Sichuan peppercorn kick that has that tingling sensation in your mouth. However, the Roti seemed to be the frozen ones that you reheat. But overall as a foodie, I am glad I tried.

Came down to Zheng to celebrate eid with my cousins ,was warmly greeted at the door by the staff they were accommodating and so sweet, our host Adam did a spectacular job to ensure we all had the best service possible he even took a polaroid picture of us and chit chatted with us while we waited for our food, the food itself was delicious and so filling i honestly could go on all day about how much we adored this restaurant.Huge thank you to Adam and the rest of the staff we will definitely be coming back again and recommending to anyone we know !!

A fine experience, very friendly staff, good food, but a little hard to eat as sharing platters, since the food is messy and sticky and after ten minutes our table looked like it had been hosting a five-year-olds birthday party. Some of the food was very delicious, but the menu was bewildering - even for the staff, and it was hard to understand why a "starter" was supposed to be enough for two people as a main dish. The shredded crispy duck with pancakes was great. It is a very genuine place, the impression was that the staff and cooks are Malaysian. To our Northen European palates the starters and main dishes were very good (though maybe the dumplings were a little bland) , but they can not make desserts! Do not get the banana and ice cream! And they can't do European drinks like cognac (they actually asked if we wanted ice in our cognac!); they served the cognac in a whisky tumbler. Having said that, the staff - all of them - were incredibly nice. Late at night the inner room where we were seated felt a bit abandoned, as the staff started cleaning and clearing tables well before closing time.

Very good food but we got the impression the staff could not wait for us to leave “. We arrived at 1.30 and by the time we had ordered they were warning us some dishes were off, the kitchen was closing and last drinks with it. If you want a leisurely lunch with friends better arrive when they open at noon . This is 2023 the 24 hour society I don’t like it when they’re sponging down the tables before we’ve paid the bill

Il ristorante offre cucina malese e cinese di buon livello. Il locale e' ben curato e in una zona di gran pregio (Chelsea). Tutto il personale e' davvero gentile e pronto ad esaudire le richieste dei clienti. La carta dei vini e' decisamente migliorabile, ma si trovano alcune bottiglie a prezzi umani. Il costo non e' basso, ma data la citta' e la zona decisamente adeguato.

Let me start by saying this unassuming looking restaurant is not cheap. At all. We booked here largely because of the reviews. Well, yes, it was a lot of money as it turns out and some items are definitely overpriced, hence my 4 stars. BUT the food was outstanding. We had dumplings, sesame prawn toast, soup, crispy mango chicken, fragrant rice, minced pork with green beans and the best rendang I have ever had anywhere on the planet. Would I go back? Slightly begrudgingly, yes, because of the excellent food. I just can't quite bring myself to pay those prices...argh...torn! Service was great; warm and attentive. A lovely experience.

Manager Martin is extremely hospitable and service was great. Food was incredible and served efficiently.

The Beef Rendang was far too timid and the texture was all wrong, more like an Irish stew. The chicken Sate was lovely though, as was the singapore fried noodles, even if the portion was only half the size it should have been. Friendly service but I won't be going back.

The venue is lovely - stylish room in a converted Chelsea town house The menu is beautifully presented and we could have happily ordered any of the dishes The wine list is well balanced and reasonably priced The service is impeccable and delivered with consideration and good humour The food is just delicious and again reasonably priced. (If you are going to eat in one of the most expensive real estate locations on earth don’t expect it to be cheap. It still doesn’t cain it ) First of many forthcoming visits for us

Visited on Fri night with 3 friends. We wanted an authentic Malaysian dinner and were not disappointed. The Beef Rendang was flavoursome and tasty, Chicken Sambal had that lovely, chilli shrimp taste and we also got great service.

Sydney St restaurant, so prices are fairly high. With those prices one expects a memorable meal, or dishes that one would say ‘stand out. Food is very mediocre, and whilst I think Malaysian cuisine is one of the world’s best, this pan Asian restaurant is...

The food was enjoyable and the service 1st class, everybody in there commented the same .food was expensive but to be expected only thing they could improve was the mocktails lacked favour.

Disappointed by the quarter crispy duck pancakes I just ordered via Deliveroo for £17.50 The duck was very dry and seemed to be overcooked or reheated. The pot of plum sauce was too small, only covered 4 out of the 6 pancakes. Why give so...

We ate here once in pre-corona times and enjoyed it so were glad to see that Zheng was doing takeaways. Alas the experience was disappointing. The crispy duck was dry, tasteless and with not enough sauce. The beef rendang was glutinous and the prawn dish...
