There are three similarly named Four Seasons in Chinatown. I've finally made it to all 3. This is the Gerrard Street restaurant review. While the three offer mostly the same menu, Gerrard Street is where their excellent Roast Duck put Four Seasons on the map! Friends and I have decided the this branch tastes a bit better, and has the best tasting Poached Chicken with Ginger & Spring Onions. The chicken is delicious, not overcooked. More cilantro would have made it perfect. Unfortunately the second time here last night the chicken was sold out! This branch appears to give the least amount of BBQ roast meats when ordered as combo (two evenings before, Four Seasons-Wardour Street gave generous large cuts of Roast Duck and crispy Roast Pork Belly). The duck is flavorful and beautifully rendered, and the pork belly is to-die-for perfectly crispy! Fried Beef Ho Fun was very tasty with distinct "wok hay" flavor, meaning the wok was so hot that it added fiery char to the beef, bean sprouts and ho fun (flat rice noodles). Four Seasons offers the most variety of Chinese greens I've seen in a restaurant. We went with Morning Glory as it is hard to find in the US. It was a bit bland with just oyster sauce. I prefer with garlic but a friend doesn't like garlic. Braised Mixed Vegetables (Lo Hon style) with bean vermicelli was delicious and filled with at least 7 different vegetables and mushrooms. Ambiance, especially upstairs, is old school Cantonese Chinatown with crowded tables and chairs, worn walls, "ancient" decor, and a tiny restroom in the stairwell that is better left unseen. Service was actually surprisingly good. Brisk but conversational with smiles. This is the Four Seasons we will come back to first. read more

My 800th review!!!! And 1st-ish of 2026 hehe 4.5 stars rounding down! I thought higher but Fiance thinks lower so we will meet in the middle haha Roasted Duck-- I thought this was tasty and full of flavor, paired well with my noodle soup Crispy Pork Belly-- good and crispy, but Fiance thought it could use more flavor Egg Noodle Soup-- it hit the spot because it was freezing outside lol but i believe it was dry egg noodle vs fresh egg noodle that was used Stir-fry vegetables-- good but also a bit oily House Fried Rice -- Fiance's favorite dish So happy this time around we got to try Four Seasons, go early beause the restaurant will quickly fill up around lunch time! read more

We explored Chinatown before hitting the theater district adjacent to see a show. In the mood for a great Chinese meal, all (online) recommendations seemed to point to Four Seasons as a great choice. As we walked by an employee flagged us down and quickly seated us. There's a "Little Four Seasons" connected to the standard "Four Seasons" and an upstairs that (maybe?) encompasses both-- as far as I can tell the same menu and service applies to both/all. A poster with a review from the London Financial Times points to their roast duck as "the best in the world"-- I am by no means qualified to know if that is true but I ordered the 3 meat option with duck, pork belly, and barbecue chicken and found the duck to be delicious (as were the other meats). The rice is very good, not greasy at all. My wife had chicken and rice, and her chicken was a lighter grilled chicken that was also good. We had an order of the pork dumplings which were also great. Service was fast, efficient, and friendly. Prices fair. read more

Decent spot for authentic Chinese food in Chinatown, although nothing particularly stood out to me. Roast duck - This is their famous dish, so I of course had to try it out. It was nice that they offered to debone the duck, which is something I don't think I've seen before. The duck was simple yet good. The meat was nice and tender, and the sauce added some moderate flavor. I don't think it was truly that much better than other roast duck that I've had though. Crispy noodles with prawns - This is a classic Cantonese dish that they made pretty well, but still nothing that special. Pork stomach and chicken soup - Personally, I was not a big fan of this dish (mainly because of the pork stomach), maybe because of my more western palate and not due to the quality of the dish. The fact that they offer dishes like this though does show that this is a very authentic restaurant. The restaurant is split into two sides, with Four Seasons on one side and Little Four Seasons on the other (they seem to be basically the same thing though). The interior feels like an ordinary Chinese restaurant with a moderate amount of seating. There can be a moderate wait sometimes depending on the time of day. The staff were attentive and friendly. The service speed was pretty quick. Overall, while the food at Four Seasons is decent and certainly very authentic, it didn't really stand out to me that much (and the prices are slightly higher than I would have expected at 74 GBP for these 3 dishes), so it's more of a 3.5 star place to me. read more

Great! What Came here with my family during our holidays trip to London. After numerous searches, this was one of the top spots for authentic cantonese food. We got: - the roast duck - this was very good compared to the one in our local city (Orlando FL). The only think I didn't like is that they put the sauce on the duck which was more of a sweet based sauce, but it was still good - Singapore Rice noodles - This was overall a good dish, a bit spicy. I felt like the noodles were not tossed thoroughly so the sauce was too concentrated in some spots. - Stir fried veggies - This was very good, no complains - salt pepper squid - this was very disappointing. I did not like this at all Environment Located in the heart of the chinatown area. This is a relatively small location with a number of tables inside. I would say the settle is very casual. Niceness of the staff Nice staff. They work pretty quick, though the food came in a bit late, they gave us the tea free Dollar It was London price I guess. But well worth Yes I would read more

Really did not enjoy the service here. The aggressive hustler outside was ironically the friendliest part of this experience. We were the only group inside, there were 2 parties seated outside... essentially it was empty. Once seated, our older waitress was annoyed by basic questions (like how the meat was cooked--fried or sautéed?) and gave condescending answers. Just very short and curt. Food came out fast, but felt overpriced for what it was. Was a bit salty. They even skimped out on rice... read more

We were visiting London from the States. Saw from a lot of online reviews and heard from some friend to come here and try the duck! Was here in Chinatown at 10pm on a Tuesday night. At first they told us that they were out of duck, but then said they would go check again. Luckily there was one last duck! Got the boneless duck and I'm amazed that it really was boneless. The duck was superb, super juicy and tender. And the sauce, OMG! I don't know what kind of crack they put in it, but it was fantastic. I can say this with full confidence. This was the best duck that I've ever ever had in my entire life!! Go here and get the duck. Period. read more

I would pass, we were a bit disappointed in general... while the meats were very good, we thought it was a bit pricey. There were so many places to choose from, we were hungry & decided on the first recommended name in a recent article..Ironically, we were staying in the Bayswater area & it would have been great to try Four Seasons there. We did enjoy the 3 meats plate..Char Siu, Duck & Spareribs..but it absolutely was not a generous portion for the price. Maybe if you don't come from a city with an expansive amount of Chinese food..otherwise, I'd do a bit more research. Definitely $$$ read more

Four Seasons - 3 meats, Duck, Char Siu & Spare ribs.. excellent, pricey @ 20.5 L - Chinese Near Me - London, XGL

My partner and I had a relatively light meal here, ordering some Beijing Roast Duck mainly, and my partner got the fish ball soup. She had good comments about the fish ball soup, while I felt like the roast duck was pretty up to standards. Specifically, even though the roast duck wasn't sent to our table presented to us, it was flavorful, oily, and made my stomach feel sick after having some bites (which was a good thing because roast duck is supposed to do that to you). I felt like having the same type of duck when I had it at home in China, so that was cool. In terms of service, it was meh, but that wouldn't deter me from giving this place a 4 because Chinese restaurants all over the world are not known for exemplary service, and food matters the most. I have also heard good things about some of their other meat dishes, and amongst a bunch of food places in Chinatown which really can be a hit or miss, I think this place is worth a shot. But remember, you don't come here for the service, but food only. read more

This place is located on Chinatown. On the face book group this place kept coming up. The price is a little up their but the portion are Huge. I barely made a dent on my chicken curry because it so much. My mother order the sweet and sour chicken. She originally BBQ pork but they ran out and we got there around 4;30 to eat. A good mixture of Asians, British Asian, black & white British people were dining there. The phone kept ring off the hook for advance dinner reservations & orders for take out If I ever come back to London I wouldn't mine coming back for lunch. read more

A very popular eatery in Chinatown; there is always a line whether to eat in or to take out food. The place was packed. I opted to start for the comforting Wonton Soup. Clear broth with minced Green Onions and 4-5 Wontons filled with Shrimp & Pork? Nice on a cool Evening. Two Combination Meat with Rice. I chose Crispy Pork Belly & Soya Chicken. Delicious and a generous serving that I took back to my place for later on. Lychee in Iced syrup for dessert was refreshing. Everything was washed down with a Fanta. Pops are much nicer in the UK. read more

We stopped in on a whim. We were welcomed in promptly and appreciated the cool air conditioning on a 90 degree day. We had the Chinese spinach with garlic sauce and the 3 meat combination over rice. I detected a little sand/grit in the spinach which is always off putting. The hot tea was good and soothing. The total bill was $39.95 and included a 12.50 % discretionary service charge. We left the fee bc the server were nice overall and hard working. When we left the line to get in was quite long. read more

This place has gone downhill. I have had much better roast duck in other places. The duck was OK but was nothing delicious. The other dishes were typical Chinese dishes you get at a take out restaurant. They were not very good and they were underwhelming. Honestly, I wouldn't go back. The service was good and the place was crowded. read more

Disappointed in the quality of the duck. Served lukewarm with fat rendering very inconsistent and because of the temperature, the skin wasn't crispy. Waiter forgot our hot & sour soup and the chat-sui was way too lean. The strip mall take out place near our house does better. So sad. read more

Came across this place on a couple lists of the best Chinese restaurants in London, with the roast duck being the main draw. I wanted the duck but was also curious about the pork options, too. I therefore ordered a three-meat combo with the duck, pork belly and bbq pork. If Arby's "has the meats" in the US, this place certainly has the meats in London's Chinatown! Wow were they good. My favorite was actually the pork belly; the crust was so crispy and flavorful. The Chinese broccoli (as it was listed on my receipt) was also very good. On the food alone, I would give this place five stars. However, although I knew the service here wouldn't be great, it was still lackluster relative to the price I paid. For one, the server initially brought me red wine, even though he clarified I wanted white wine when I asked for chardonnay. For two, people seated after me had their orders taken before me. I've grown accustomed to during my travels as a lone, Black diner...but still. And, as stated, the prices were definitely on the high side. The wine wasn't good at all but £5.80 was an okay price. The meats alone were about £18, and came with a bowl of white rice. Considering the combo included duck and it was all tasty, I feel this, too, was a fair price. The broccoli, however, was £13, which is the price of an entree in its own right, and while the broccoli was good, it was just stir-fried in garlic sauce. Nothing fancy. To me, that's what pushed the bill from being reasonable to cost-prohibitive. With the service charge (which I realize is discretionary and I have no qualms even paying for mediocre service), this was a £47 for a meal that was really good but not life-changing. I imagine the cost would be more palatable for folks who dine together and can split their meals. I wouldn't come back alone but definitely would with friends or family. read more

Chinese restaurant located in the heart of Chinatown, London. Busy place with seating on two levels. The main floor was full so we were asked to sit in the basement. This area lacked character and was cold and windy due to a/c machines switched on to circulate air. Service is not the best but food was decent enough. I ordered half roast duck, was good but not shredded at my table. My friends ordered sweet and sour tofu and crispy beef - Botha said they enjoyed it. Spring rolls starter was not my favorite (seemed packaged and very expensive for what it was). Tip was added to the bill. I'm read more

I often go with my family, and I loved the special fried rice, char Sui pork, the noodles, the wanton soup, and the service for me if very good, we like one person called Rita who is a good waiter, the setting is quite nice, and I love the big spinning tables especially, and I find it cool that you can see duck gaming right from the window, the ambiance is also great! read more

Came here from a YouTube recommendation for roast duck. Honestly, when we followed these types of recommendations in London they were easily tourist traps and not good at all. Therefore, our jaws dropped from how GOOD this place was. I almost didn't come here because of the attention it got but decided to go last minute on our last day. I'm so glad we did. We got half a roast duck which was a huge portion compared to what we get in the states, the wonton soup, and beef sliced Lo melon. The duck was so moist and skin was crispy. I really loved the duck sauce they used it wasn't thin like most places and was the perfect amount of salty and sweet. The wontons were amazing fresh made not frozen. Lastly, the Lo Mein you can taste the wok...and for Chinese food that is a 5 star praise. Service was a little intimidating at first. But after a few jokes thrown around by the end our waiter treated us like family! I can't wait to return to london to try it again. Come early because it does get busy and packed fast! read more

Right in the middle of Chinatown. Very good duck and charsiu. Probably the best I've had. Service was good, too. But seriously, I can't get behind these ridiculous "price surges." Depending on who you ask, two days after Christmas might be considered a holiday. But even so, how can you charge almost twice the amount during this time? I can understand maybe Christmas day where everything is usually closed. But the 27th? Come on! read more

Ordered Peking Duck and was served a pile of small duck pieces with strips of skin laid on top. It was flavorless and greasy. My green tea was a pot of over steeped poor quality brown liquid. Best part of the meal as the prawn toast which was delicious. If you want Peking duck look elsewhere for it served properly. Don't know if they thought we were too stupid to know the difference or what. It felt like being served duck scraps overlaid with skin. read more

This was excellent. We came with a group of three and got the Cantonese roast duck, fried rice, prawn dumplings, morning glory, fried prawns, and chicken in black bean sauce. The duck was amazing, even though I generally prefer other types of duck preps. The morning glory was surprisingly great (not usually my thing), and the fried prawns may have actually been the best thing on the table. read more

when we used to live in London, the Bayswater location was where we would get our boneless roast duck. there is no place in SoCal that we've come across that does roast duck this good. This location was closer to where we were staying, but we weren't sure which one to go to since there were two in Chinatown. I asked my friend who's dad eats there all the time, and she told me that he goes to whichever one has the longest line. GREAT ADVICE! This one had a pretty long line at opening so we went here. For three people, we ordered a full duck, half a soy sauce chicken (they call it soya sauce chicken in the UK), charsui, and garlic Chinese spinach. everything was very fresh and tasty. Despite eating at La Tour D'ARGENT in Paris on this trip, this was pretty damn good duck. love that it was boneless. read more

This place was very busy with a line out the door to be seated. The food was mediocre for Chinese food. The staff was very nice and generous. The Peking styled duck quality was okay, just not crispy enough. There was plenty of duck wraps though which was nice. read more

This is definitely a tourist trap. You're better off going to other Chinese restaurants. The food is a mix bag. The vegetables are cooked ok. The BBQ pork is horrible. They will give you chunks of fat. The chicken is mostly bones. The fried noodle is ok, nothing standing out. The final bill is outrageous. They change 5£ for a small tea and automatically added on the 12.5% service charge for taking order and bringing you the food. Avoid this place you can. read more

This restaurant was recommended to me when I was planning to come to London. I was told to order the Peking duck, which I had not had since being in Beijing several years ago. I ordered the boneless Special Roasted Duck Cantonese Style. It was tender with a little crisp and the sauce was perfect to pour over rice. Looking forward to trying more dishes in the future. read more

Solid Hong Kong BBQ--see for yourself by walking the Chinatown restaurants and browse the windows. You will not see juicier, more caramelized meat I ordered the 3 meat combo of boneless duck, charsiu, and siewyoke. All spot on. Also order some doumiao vegetable which was also well prepared. The dry prawn dumpling arrived with tired dumplings. Maybe they were held and reheated. Otherwise, a heavy hitting showcase of what Hong Kong BBQ should be. read more

GREAT FOOD GREAT SERVICE Heading back before my flight home! Monday Sept 15 at 20:30 As an American I was embarrassed and I wasn't even in this group....large group of Americans, 2 families 10+ people, both dads loudly and aggressively saying they were going to write a bad review and that they had bad service so everyone in the restaurant could hear as they were walking out. Obviously first timers to dining in London. Everyone eating was like Get The Fuck Out of Here! Complete entitled pricks!

My family and I decided to dine at Four Seasons on our last night in London. I'm so glad we did! I am also so thankful we got in--there was a very long line to get in, which speaks of their outstanding reputation. We were seated by the nicest man--Ricky, aka King Lollipop. When we got in, we had the most delicious dinner! We had the Roasted Duck, Roasted Pork belly, Chicken with Cashews, Stir fried Ho Fun, egg fried rice, fried prawn toast, and dumplings. Everything was well prepared and fresh! We will definitely come back when we make it back to London! Thank you, Four Seasons, for making our last night in London so special! read more

I am debating between 3 and 4 stars for this one. We were told this is the best Chinese (old school Cantonese/HK style Chinese) in town, and maybe it is - maybe it's not. We ordered a plate of mixed roast meats (char siu, pork belly and duck), morning glory, fried ho fun with beef and beef with cashew. The char siu was disappointing. Too lean and too dry. The pork belly was ok. The pork skin didn't get the respect it deserved. The roast duck was good though - as it should be, but we got a few boring pieces from the duck on our mixed plate. The plate was overall an ok experience. Could definitely be better. Morning glory was flavorful but too salty. They clearly dropped the spoon with msg in the wok when they prepared this one. Beef cashew was fine - nothing wow here. Ho fun with beef was good enough. They're a bit thrifty with the portion size. Other than that, it was a fair dish. (It is a hard one to cook well) Finally, and what is definitely pulling the rating down. £4 for a bowl of plain rice ladies and gentlemen! I reckon inflation is biting, but that price for a bowl of plain rice is borderline robbery... Ok, it's a 3-star despite all the "good" reviews. We visited in April 2023. read more

This is a small shop located across Bubblewrap and every time we walked by, their were little to no customers around. I personally feel like this place is more authentic than the other places on Chinatown which may account for why it lacks popularity. The person who served us was relatively polite and nice but one of the ladies working was pretty rude to us. We ordered beef noodle soup, fried rice, Chinese spinach, and seafood soup. The fried rice was good as was the spinach. The noodle soups were just ok and were not anything special. Overall, this was a subpar place and I probably wouldn't go to it again. It wasn't awful but it wasn't great. read more

The food is good and authentic here. Ordered the wonton noodle and BBQ pork & duck on top of rice. It is the best wonton noodle we had here in London Chinatown, the wrap is thin, and fresh port and shrimp, the soup base is tasty, I can tell the difference right away. The BBQ pork is crispy, the pork fat just perfectly done that you don't feel it oily or soft. And the duck pieces are good too, not too dry and not too fat. It is a busy store, and piece is right too. read more

They got 4 restaurants in the same area of chinatown imagine how crowded this place is.

Very poor service attitude. Once I mentioned my friend is going to be late for about twenty minute, the waiter exclaimed exaggeratedly: "20 minute? How can we do business if we have to wait every table for such a long time like you! Our table rotation rate is very high" stuff like that. In fact, when I took my order, by the time my friend arrived, not all the order has been served yet. And the the restaurant is not even FULL! Also, when they served Won Ton noodle, I see something really disgusting in it. They just took it back without any apology. Ridiculous. I gave one star because it the minimum not because they deserve any of the stars. read more

This was my favorite Go-To place in London's Chinatown. It was very authentic and delicious!

PROS - When I was little, I was allergic to duck. I would break out in hives all over my face, arms and legs. My mom told me I would just keep eating and didn't care. Thank goodness I'm no longer allergic but even if I was, the crispy roast duck pancakes served here would encourage me to keep eating regardless. The three of us ordered the duck pancakes with a half duck and salt&pepper tofu (beancurd). The duck pancakes were delectable! The half duck was served in shreds to make it easier on us to make our own pancakes with cucumber strips and onion strips. We were given the duck sauce (looks like BBQ sauce) along with a trio of spices to fully customize our heavenly duck experience. The salt&pepper tofu was alright, but it was nothing special so I wouldn't order it again. CONS - It's a bit spendy for the amount of duck you get but Four Seasons know they are hot shit compared to other roast duck places around Chinatown so they are "entitled" to price their duck that way ;) So the problem lies solely with me and that I should get a higher paying job to eat more duck pancakes, dammit! read more
