MMMMMhhhhhhh Chinese (Cue Homer Simpson drool)…read more I love my Chinese food and these guys quite simply do the best Chinese I think I've ever had. In a world with a million and one Chinese take away restaurants, finding one that actually makes their food taste nice is amazing. Their noodles are the thin firm kind, not the stodgy kind that looks more like spaghetti than noodle. Their duck in plum sauce is to die for (if you like Crispy Duck pancakes you'll love these) and their starters are amazing too. If a restaurants quality can be gauged on how busy they are, these guys are packed almost every day. If you want to go for a meal, yes they are a sit down restaurant first, takeaway second, you'd better book ahead. Weekends are exceptionally busy. The food is first rate and you also aren't going to have a heart attack wen the bill comes. Although they are slightly more expensive than a cheap takeaway place, we're only talking 50p to £1 a dish more. Well worth it in my mind. Pop in and pick up a menu next time you're walking back from the station and give them a try.

I used to frequent this place atleast once a week when I lived close by in Borehamwood (that was 14…read moreyears ago). I have to say that that coming back to see the same family running the restaurant and ordering the same favourites was great. Their chilli beef, soup and noodle dishes are great. Just the same as it always was, a real treat. Brought back happy memories.

Ah King was open until 11pm and the menu looked pretty comprehensive. The boyfriend had pad thai which he said was "just okay" and I had the egg noodles with roast duck. The soup was not as flavorful as I would have preferred so I added a lot of spicy chili oil. The duck was also a bit flavorless but maybe I'm being a bit too critical because I tend to like things extra salty/sweet/spicy, etc. I felt like we could have walked a little further down towards Chinatown and found cheaper, tastier noodles. Even though we were the last patrons in the restaurant, the staff didn't rush our meal. Decent dining experience although nothing spectacular.

The food is broad-spectrum oriental with standard Chinese dishes with rice or noodles, dishes based on large bowls of noodles with different meats and more impressive ones like whole steamed fish and Golden Fried Crab. Not the best Oriental food I've ever had, but it was good value and very tasty: recommended.

My sister and I were craving some cantonese food, the type you find in those restaurants which have…read morebeen operating since before the hipster revolution. This place is great, they have all of the traditional starters such as Sesame Prawn Toast and Battered King Prawns, which go so well with chilli sauce. Since we had stuffed ourselves with starters, we opted for chicken with green peppers and black bean sauce, with Egg Fried Rice of course. If you are looking for 'no frills' cantonese food, then this place is recommended. The service was polite and friendly too. The price is very reasonable, it's a great place to go.

Chan's. Yum. While…read morestaying with my grandparents for a few weeks in East Ham, I got tired of eating at home. My Aunt is obsessed with Chan's and sings its praises whenever she gets a chance (for a short time, she used to frequent this place almost every week). I walked to Chan's as it was getting dark, slightly nervous that I wasn't going the right way. When I entered, I saw a tiny (really) restaurant with plenty of tables full of people eating happily. It's a good sign when the type of food served in a restaurant is being devoured by people of the same ethnic group, it gives you a feeling that you can trust the place. I got my food to go. A heaping vegetarian dish and rice. The prices were fair and everything was packed perfectly. I relished it at home that night and the next. Everything was excellent. What got me was the service. Although the man taking my order had never met me, he was concerned about my walk home and offered to call me a cab. He advised me (since as an American I was clearly out of my element) that the area wasn't great to be alone in at night and wanted to make sure I got home safely. Since I didn't know my address heart, I didn't have a chance to take him up on the offer and walked home. Chan's isn't the type of restaurant that stuns you with high ceilings or decor or exciting lighting. They focus on the food and their customers. It is a restaurant of people who come with their families continually. I will be back the next time I am in East Ham.

It's got a home-y feel throughout making this more of a comfort (but still good) food stop than a gourmet dining experience. Average prices.

The food is also good with decent sized portions and has a feeling of being homemade and true to its Greek roots. On the other hand this homemade feeling leaves more to be desired when it comes to being a restaurant: The presentation is not very good and the dishes are too greasy. Overall, I find Wine and Mousaka disappointing. A nice location with a cosy environment and passionate owners could have been much more elegant and refined than what it is now.

The food is very good, with some pretty decent cuts of meat. The hot and cold mezzes are also great for sharing, and trying a handful of new dishes/flavours in one night. Also, its BYOB, so for the big drinkers on a budget, this a great way to enjoy a night out, without worrying about those extra pennies. The service is very good...sometimes a bit too efforted, but not to a point where its a nuisance. Overall a really comfortable and relaxed atmosphere. I will definitely be back!

It's rare to try out a new restaurant and liked everything I ordered. Olive and Figs is one of…read morethose places on my list. I was in town with some co workers, one of which is on a low carb diet. So after seeing some good reviews of this Turkish restaurant with good selection of grilled meats, we figured to give it a try. It was 8 PM on a Monday evening so the place was quite empty which was nice as we wanted to catch up on some work discussions (I think there was just one other table occupied). The restaurant is located in a tiny little alleyway which added to the charm but did make it a challenge to find. The place is also very small....I'd call it a hole in the wall type. We looked through the menu and ordered the hummus, grilled sausage, and grilled sardines for appetizers and the lamb chops, chicken kebab, seared fish, and lamb kebobs for entrees. I can honestly say that we all loved everything. Oh, even the mint tea was delicious. This has just become my go to place every time I come to London (once every 2 months).
