We were in london unannounced and looking for a place to eat. I remember topjaw reviewing this and the noodles that everyone was raving about. I can only assume it’s changed ownership or given up! Firstly we were shown up a small staircase to a dirty looking room. The staff all sat around eating off one table whilst the others remain dirty, uncleared and with strange stains. One poor lad with limited English was running around the three tables taking orders from 3 different menus, rushing off mid sentence and returning later. When the food did arrive, it was inevitably wrong and quite nasty. All three tables got some fried rice dish. The rice was old, it was full of some kind of over cooked pork and was super spicy. We also all got some weird fried dumpling that was swimming in oil and had pork again in the middle. None of the tables had ordered anything of the like, and it quickly descended into farce. The poor lad didn’t know who had ordered what and from where, so in the end just gave up and said “pay what you want”. We felt sorry and paid for the items he had brought. At no stage did any of the other staff offer to help him, just sat there on their phones eating skewers and dropping the sticks on the floor. I can’t say anything positive I’m afraid. It didn’t look clean, service was awful and the food inedible.

As it says in the title, this is the place to bear when it comes to authentic and deliciously made bubble tea. The service is always fast and I don’t think I can emphasise just how wonderful the drinks are. You get a lot of drink for what you buy plus there is just something special about the presentation of the drink and the way it is made that stays in your mind long after you finish the bubble tea. I particularly recommend the fruit teas, with some drinks it comes with fresh fruit in the drink that you can eat after! Always refreshing and sweet

We stayed here for the first time as a group of 4. Booked two rooms as we are all work colleagues and they only do doubles we booked family rooms with Sofa bed. The sofa bed is quite small but adequate. The beds were comfy & breakfast good value. It isn’t a hotel it’s serviced apt’s with a cafe facility so don’t go expecting the facilities of a 4 star hotel as there is no bar etc but as far a value as central location and price it’s an absolute bargain. Plus there are so many bars and restaurants close by it really didn’t bother us. The staff are superb really helpful.

This is a clean and happy noodle bar with many chooses to enjoy and to try the variety of flavors and types of noodles that abound...This not too expensive stop is worth the small amount that it cost for a lunch......The tea and other drinks go well with this lunch..... A THOMAS PAUL Pick for noodle bars in this area...Rated a 5 star comedy forever!!!!!

The worst Chinese food I've ever had. Very bad quality food. I couldn't eat most of it. I asked the waiter what they recommended and ordered a pork chop with rice dish and a drink. The drink was icy and had beans in it. The main meal was terrible, it seemed like pre-prepared egg fried rice with very fatty pork on top, and a sugary sweet and gloopy yellow sauce on top. It all tasted like it had been cooked way in advance. One table nearby that I started a conversation casually before eating asked the waiter what the dish contained when it arrived and she said she didn't know. She invited the manager over who told the people near me it was not cheese but a not spicy curry but couldn't give details about the ingredients. It gave me the impression they didn't even know what it was made of. It was so bad I couldn't eat most of it and couldn't finish my drink either. I spent just over 22 pounds on what appeared to be preprepared or microwaved food of very low quality. Chinatown is a tourist trap in my view, the restaurants here invest most of their money in rent and not much money in food quality and amount.

1-min review Pros: - Great-tasting, authentic dishes, including the Laksa, the Hainanese Chicken rice and the Char Kway Teow - very reasonably priced - varied menu, something for everyone - lots of seating, as well as fast service - good drink selection Cons: - seating is a bit on the tight side Overall: One of the best places in central London for Malaysian/Singapore food, reasonably priced and full of flavour

We came here for a birthday and it was a bit of a mixed experience. Service was very average and it took a long time for them to even take our order - which was for hotpot. It then took ages for the soup base to arrive and the ingredient dishes to follow. One was missing and so we then had to chase that one. The air conditioning wasn't working well and so two of our party got a free facial all night long! We also ordered a thai dish which took again took ages and when we chased that up, it came straight away but was cold and congealed. We sent it back (with no issues) and a new dish came out, which was excellent. I really want to like this place and might give it one more go.
