This was my first Chinese restaurant experience in the UK, I'd say it was not bad at all. Come for dim sum if you're in Chinatown or Leicester Square area.

There is often a wait for a table - it is worth it and they will tell how long. You can wait in the hallway or outside in summer. Atmosphere and service transports the Rat back to Central in Hong Kong; very fiesty! It warms the heart of this Dim Sum Rat. Standouts: Crispy Seaweed - very good on dumplings! Salt pepper soft shell crab Prawn zucchini dumpling Prawn spinach dumpling Steamed chili aubergine Pak Choi with garlic Not so good: Nothing that the Dim sum Rat knows of Service Magnificent! True yum cha. You can also dine quietly in the late afternoon

For me... The food that is served in this restaurant is simply about as good as Chinese food could…read moreever hope to get here in the UK. Not too oily, not too spicy, they cook fresh food into a perfect blend of traditional Chinese flavours, as well as adding a few novel dishes of their own making for originality. Everything, from the chicken in black bean sauce through to the asparagus with cashew nuts, is cooked to perfection... And as such, it's no wonder that whenever I drive past on a Friday night the restaurant is always packed! While the restaurant is nothing special in its own right, the food speaks for itself... And, if you're into Chinese food and excellent service, then I'd highly recommend this establishment to you.

You can see the staff freshly preparing their dumplings in the kitchen and you can taste the freshness in the pan-fried dumplings or pasty. The shanghai pork dumplings on the other hand was the only item that seemed either overly steamed or cooked after significant refrigeration as the dumplings had hardened.  The chive is interestingly dominant in both the fish and chive dumplings and the egg and chive pasty whilst the coconut is pleasantly fragrant and significantly sweet in the coconut buns. Meanwhile the noodles are smooth but of a consistency more like pasta than traditional chinese noodles. In short Panda Dim Sum is a welcome option to have, delivering decent Chinese cuisine and fresh dumplings to this part of East London but it doesn't quite rival other Chinese restaurants that can be found throughout London.

They are very friendly and considerate, food are very good and like home food from HK. Fantastic!read more

Refined Chinese with a twist. Andrew Wong new restaurant is a hit!…read more Good atmosphere, really like the pink darkish lighting of the place. It gives it a groovy vibe. Food wise, I wouldn't it is the best Chinese I have ever been to but it's very good food and worth going if you want upscale Chinese without the crazyness of central London/Chinatown. We shared for starters the spicy sechuan aurbergine (a must order), mushroom buns (as nice as the ones from aWong) deep fried green beans (also a must) and the crispy duck ( Im never a fan but aWong and Kym's probably have the best ones and amazing plum sauce) For mains we tried the three treasure (soya chicken, iberico pork char sui and crispy pork). I think my favourite was the crispy pork. Its a good way of tasting all the rotisserie but if you are super hungry I would recommend ordering 2 of the rotisserie separetely. As for desserts, we tried the Pineapple bun and the cherry ice cream both lovely. Awong is definitly the king of custard. although I think the custard bun from aWong just beat everything lolol.

Victoria set the stage and steered me to a sampling that did not disappoint. Egg roll - not your typical egg roll, enshrined in a crispy rice shell, lightly fried to perfection, accompanied by a tangy sweet dipping delight. Followed by the mushroom steamed buns, and capped off by the most spectacular pork and shrimp boa boa, perfectly spicy, fully satisfying, a work of art. The service was spectacular and matched the experience. Make this a stop on your foodie tour of London.

As far as…read moregood Chinese food goes this is pretty tasty, not that greasy (be careful what you order though) and extremely convenient for me. All in all that produces a pretty good take out choice in my book. I don't know about you, and this is just my take on it, but I never finish a take away the day I order it, normally it's breakfast, sometime lunch and often dinner for the next day. Not here though. The portions are a lot smaller than anywhere else I have seen so I'm not sure if that means you are meant to order more dishes or what but it just seems a little odd. Maybe I caught them on an off day. Tasty food though, and takeout/cash only.
