The best restaurants serving Asian food in England

Visited DPD for early brunch 2 x in a month recently. We last visited quite a few years ago, so it was nice to return. One of the benefits is it’s open around 11 am, so it's very convenient if you are looking for a bite before other eateries open at 12. Visiting early also means you’re guaranteed a seat at the busy food court! We ordered our usual - the chicken udon set, which comes with a piece of spare rib and a spring roll, as well as a drink. The udon dish is one of the few dishes which they cook to order, so it’s not like the other dishes which might have been sitting in the bain marie for some time. We asked for the ribs to be replaced with salt and pepper chicken wings, which was no issue. Prices have definitely climbed through the years, but wasn’t bad value for £8.70, considering the noodles were freshly cooked. The food was served in paper containers, and wooden cutlery was provided. I believe these replaced the styrofoam boxes and plastic cutlery from previous visits, so that’s better for the environment. The noodles were piping hot and a generous amount, with a decent amount of chicken. The spring rolls were nice and crisp and didn’t taste like the shop bought variety. The salt and pepper wings weren’t too bad. We also tried the curry chips for £3.00 which was a small portion, but tasty, with a generous portion of curry sauce. The sauce didn’t really taste spicy till we were having it on its own, without the chips. Overall, DPD is a nice place to dine if you’re looking to fill your tummy without paying over the odds. Check them out for decent Chinese food at the Arndale!

Takeaway treat tonight. Staff done me a lovely Garlic chicken Madras. Had this with Pilau Rice & Garlic Nann. Very nice food & recommend

This place was genuinely the worst place I have ever eaten. To start the menu online is not the menu In store We ordered a couple of cocktails, heavily overpriced. My old fashioned was served in dirty glasses. Perfectly priced at £15 per drink. On to the the food. Starters were spring rolls, clearly bought from Iceland, soggy and tasteless and drenched in sweet chilli sauce to mask the the lack of flavour. Mains; "Korean fried" chicken. Something I never thought I'd find on a Vietnamese menu. But nonetheless the picture on the menu looked good. However we were served with one piece of oven fried chicken thigh with a large serving of sticky rice. I have travelled all over Asia and never once has any chef paired Thai sticky rice with "Korean fried chicken" and of course to cover up the lack of flavour again, an abundance of sweet chilli sauce was generously lathered across both the sticky rice and the 'Korean fried chicken' . All this for the low low price of £24 for 2. Sides, I ordered a bao bun with pulled pork, also not Vietnamese but when in Rome. The bun was soggy, moist at best, the pork tasteless and unseasoned all for £7. Our entire meal with drinks came up to a grand total eye watering £82 This place is a scam, as others suggested, it is not Vietnamese, nor is it Korean, nor is it Thai or Chinese for that matter. In fact if any member of the Asian community where go here they would immediately walk back out. The chef should be ashamed of themselves and should probably pick up a cook book or maybe spend sometime at a Vietnamese hawker stall and learn a thing or two. I am happy offer some recommendations.

We went for a family get together. 15 adults and 5 children and the staff could not do enough for us. Service was great. Catered to every request and the food was really delicious. Thank you very much

No hemos tenido ninguno de los problemas con el servicio que han mencionado en otras críticas, a pesar de venir en los últimos 2-3 años. Siempre tenemos un buen tiempo aquí. El mango basado más postres siempre parece sabroso. La próxima vez que probar los postres chinos más tradicionales. Una visita aquí es siempre un buen final para una cena.

I believe the owner has another restaurant in Soho called Leong's Legend if that helps. Alternative the Korean Spicy Grill down the road is really good!

Este lugar ha tenido un brillo real - bajo nueva propiedad! La calidad ha mejorado enormemente, y es fácilmente una de las mejores comidas para llevar de la India hasta ahora. El dhansak de pollo es fantástico! perfectamente equilibrado con esa patada rica, dulce y agria, además de la cantidad justa de especia. El korma también está encendido. Cremoso, lleno de sabor, y no demasiado dulce como algunos lugares lo hacen. Se nota que están usando ingredientes frescos, ¡y el tamaño de las porciones ha crecido! El servicio es rápido y amable, y claramente se preocupan por hacer las cosas bien. Si no los has probado desde el cambio de propietario, vale la pena probarlos de nuevo al 100 %.

Uno de mis lugares favoritos para comer. Estuve en la ubicación del Muro de Londres varias veces. Buenas comidas sabrosas, servicio rápido y amable : )

Not great at all! Noodles were tasteless and literally 1 carrot was in my box and classes as veg. It was the first time visiting here so I had high hopes given some of the reviews and insta feed. Will not be visiting again.

¡Qué fantástico lugar para encontrar enclavado en el Puente de Londres! Necesitaba un lugar para bailar con las chicas, este era el mejor lugar para esto! Los cócteles son absolutamente fabulosos y la banda en vivo es increíble! Sin duda volveré muy pronto para bailar mis calcetines!

Preciosa parrilla coreana. Un poco caro, pero la mejor comida de la historia. Su selección de kimchis es para morir. El servicio fue bueno también.

This has been our local Chinese for 8 years now. We have tried a fair few before deciding, ‘you pay for what you get’. Slightly more expensive than others but my Gosh so worth the extra few pence. The crispy shredded beef is so crisp and tastes like beef! The salt and pepper chips are amazing, curries are tasty, sweet and sour chicken never had any issues with, unlike photos. Would 100% recommend this take away. People are always keen to share bad reviews and no one ever seems to sing praises when due.

Great flavors and value for money. Whilst the ambiance was a little lacking the food was very tasty. Great if you're a foodie, you won't be disappointed.

Awesome, tasty, fresh! We had a takeaway lat night. A mix of pho noodle, rice and banh mi. My Com Suon Trung was the best I have had for as long as I can remember. Thoroughly recommended.

What a lovely find! We stumbled across here by accident. Food was delicious, there was a great menu to choose from, staff were so friendly, helpful and courteous. We had a lovely time. It was a slice of quiet on busy London and we will definitely go back. Thank you for a lovely evening!
