Don’t bother with Dim Sum Duck if you’re not a fan of authentic food, dedicated staff, and a lively atmosphere. Yes, the space is tight, but that’s part of its charm. And the food? Anything but mediocre—it’s exceptional. The staff are often misunderstood. Their straightforwardness is about efficiency, not rudeness. The frequently mentioned middle-aged lady works hard, and her Cantonese directness can be mistaken for discourtesy. Some reviews paint dramatic scenes, complaining about waiting rules and alleged preferential treatment. However, understanding cultural differences helps. The "all-parties-must-be-present" rule is common in many busy eateries. Dim Sum Duck offers top-notch dim sum, rivaling famous spots like Din Tai Fung, but at much more affordable prices. The staff’s dedication ensures everything runs smoothly in the bustling environment. So, if you appreciate authentic Cantonese cuisine and enjoy a vibrant dining experience, Dim Sum Duck is definitely worth the wait.

Ordered the basic chicken curry and chips to see how that was, as a guage lol. It was very good, tasty and nice and hot (temperature not spicy). Randomly had mushrooms in it, rather than peas but still tasted good. Order was ready early, bonus! Its a bit pricey but so is everything nowadays 🙄. Well done. I will try another dish next time for my review.

The price should have been £32.90 it was £34.90 when it arrived the driver showed me a receipt it wasn't his fault or what I was told over the phone the food was poor the chicken was like rubber and the chicken fried rice was well over cooked like risotto the salt pepper chips were dark and definitely warm ups they need to clean there fryer oil well over priced compared to other takeaways in the area that produce better food.

Bland/flavourless noodles and egg fried rice. Only good thing was the beef and chicken. Prawn still had vein on the back. UPDATE 2024 Tried this location again as my local Chinese is temporarily closed, food was bland and tasteless. Prawns were rubbery. Had to add sauce to this which I have never had to do before with Chinese. Would not recommend. The best and tastiest thing was the fortune cookie.

Horrendous, the food was 20 minutes over what we were advised but no big deal at this time of year HOWEVER! When it arrived one of the orders was wrong, all three were congealed like they'd been lying around for a good while before being sent out. They charged £8 each for three specials the first two practically inedible and were dumped the third one after eating two thirds I discovered a piece of slate/tile/stone whatever the hell it was is not intended to be in food whatsoever. First and absolute last time I ever order food from here seriously folks don't waste your money 🤬

Terrible. This service was an awful experience. Firstly the menu is unclear and the server was not any help to clear it up. Secondly the food was delivered cold and greasy/oily and the portions were not equal. We were over charged for our food which we tried to talk to the server about but he brushed it off rudely like it was irrelevant. To finish the experience off the delivery driver did not have any change which was not acceptable and was not very pleasant to talk to. This experience was not acceptable as they should be professionals and take responsibility for their mistakes and actions. I will not be returning and I do not recommended going here. Definitely not worth the money. Disgraceful.
