A great find. Sanbao Chinese Kitchen opened in January and is in an area that was crying out for a…read moregenuine Chinese restaurant. The menu must be one of the best outside of Chinatown featuring gorgeously-flavoured dishes not seen in standard Chinese restaurants. For example, the sizzling fillet steak, fried shredded potato (exactly as found in China) and sago soup dessert. I was thrown by the egg fried rice being listed as Homestyle Fried Rice but the friendly staff (seemingly all genuine Chinese) guided me as and when needed. They do takeaway too which is a bonus for us locals. Sanboa is very near the cinema in King Street and are round the corner from Ravenscourt Park station. Highly recommended.

This might be the best Chinese restaurant in London.Tasty、 authentic and inviting. Dishes are…read moredelicious. Prices are reasonable. I can eat Chinese Kabab here, it's amazing !! These're much better than the restaurant in China town, and even much better than some others in China!! Highly highly recommended!!! 强烈推荐,可能没在中国城所以很少人来评价? 但是真是好吃的不得了,简直比中国城的好吃太多有没有!! 在这里还能吃到自己家蒸的馒头,比在北京吃到的还好吃!!价格也特别合理,如果付现金没有服务费,价格更棒。而且!!重点!!有好吃的烤串!烧烤!! 2015年第一次来,吃到羊肉串的时候都惊了,比在北京的好吃太多,完全不像其它餐厅在英国就糊弄糊弄。然后16年来英国还去吃的。17年来了又去吃了不止一次,味道还是那么地道!!关于China Town的很多餐厅,感觉就是能坑就坑,也就是中国游客去,吃一次也没第二次了,反正游客多。"吉祥三宝"没有开在中国城,完全是靠味道吸引人。强烈推荐!!!

Great service. Really good food…read moreWe me and my mother had enjoyed theirs service and food Our dish was delicious,fresh we really liked it. Tks

I have had several meals at the Four Regions, and have enjoyed every single one. Located on Kew…read moreRoad, the restaurant itself is beautifully done, with contemporary decor, comfortable leather chairs, and white tablecloths on the table. I agree with the reviewers who describe it as upmarket, and would add that it is the kind of restaurant you might go to for an intimate meal with friends or family, though I have certainly seen small groups of coworkers here as well. The food is wonderful. I thoroughly recommend the sesame prawn toast, which is nicely done, and the pan fried dumplings as starters. My partner and I always order the crispy Peking duck as a second course. The Four Regions cooks its duck to perfection, leaving the meat moist, the skin crisp. Of course, it is served with thin pancakes and hoisin sauce, which help round out this classic dish. I am rarely hungry by the third course, as the first two are so satisfying, but I occasionally order one of the Four Regions' chicken entrees, including the chicken with asparagus, or the green chicken curry. My mother-in-law and I often share an order of the broccoli in garlic sauce, which is very tasty as well. In fact, I do not think you can go wrong with most of the dishes on the menu! Service at the Four Regions is impeccable. The staff is very attentive and happy to oblige. Overall, I have found the experience at the Four Regions to be nothing but pleasant, and will happily return.

This was highly recommended by a friend so paid a visit few days ago. We were at Southbank and our…read morefirst choose was Ping Pong but it had a 2 1/2 hr wait on a Thursday evening! Bombay Chao is Very close to Ravenscourt Park underground station (District Line) and upon arrival I noticed the place bit smaller than I expected. Bombay Chao is Moderately priced with Good selection of drinks and cocktails and pretty good service however I was not impressed by the food. I ordered a Hot n' Sour Chicken soup which was decent, the starters let me down big time. The Chilli Chicken was bland and didn't have any Chillies (not even any green pepper), Chicken Lollipops were soggy on the inside. The Okra Potato Chilli starter was a winner but it was the only exception. By then we weren't very hungry and we ordered Sichuan Fish and a Pak Choi dish for mains and I really enjoyed the Pak Choi. Over all average experience and in hindsight was a poor decision to go all the way to go to Hammersmith to try this place out. I suggest you do give this a try if you are in the area but would don't travel for just food.

Bombay Chow is one of the few restaurants in London specialising in Indochinese food, located near…read moreRavenscourt Station. Their restaurant itself was very inviting from the moment we stepped in with it's spotlights lighting the darken restaurant and looked warm reflecting off the bright vivid artwork on the wall. Decor was kept simple with its dark grey walls against red painted pillars with tables lined up in rows against a long comfortable leather bench. Service is definitley worthy of a mention as staff were outstandingly helpful and friendly. They all had a lovely warm personality, very patience and all with a light humour. Unfortunately their food did not live up to those quality, lacking skill and flavours of the indochinese cuisine. Complimentary prawn crackers No complaints here. It was nice of them to serve the more fragrant and peppery kind. A generous portion too Man chow soup (veg) This soup did not taste as interesting as it looked. It was very one noted and very salty. I could only taste the peppers in there. There wasn't any flavours of the ingredients as promise in the description such as the garlic or ginger. It was so over-seasoned that the more I drank it the more thirsty I became. Such a shame for a soup that had the potential to be better as I did enjoy the texture of the thick soup against the crunchy fried noodles. Chicken Lollipops These were incredibly succulent and tender and with the chef's spice mix marinade, it was quite enticing, giving off sweet mild peppery aromatic flavours. However once again they went slightly overboard with the salt leaving you extremely thirsty after eating them. Hong Kong paneer Probably the best dish of the evening and with everything seasoned perfectly too. Could have done with more wok energy but the flavours and textures won me over. The paneer had this lovely firm bounciness to it with the crunchy sweet onions complementing it really well. All was lovely stir fry in a hot spicy bean spicy giving it depth and complexity. Kung pao potato Another firm favourite of mine this evening. The potatoes were incredibly fluffy in a really moreish sweet and savoury sticky sauce, perfectly seasoned too with its complex flavours. The heat was very quite mild for me but that made it easier to eat especially when it came scorching hot. Vegetable Manchurian I really wanted to like this dish. It was almost everything I like with the soy sauce cornstarch slurry surrounding the lovely crispy yet fluffy vegetable fritters giving that subtle sweetness to the dish. A generous portion too. But sadly it was way too salty for anyone to eat it on its own. It was as if someone had dolloped a whole tablespoon of salt into this dish Triple Szechuan This dish was pretty disastrous if I was to be honest. It was all very bland, no wok skill and the main flavour was coming from just salt again. Although not in the description, the dish came with chicken tossed in a really weird weak and runny pre made sweet and sour sauce. At least it was juicy and tender though which helped seeing how dry the dish was with the poorly fried rice and crispy noodles. Being quite a flavourless dish it made it very hard to consume with the lack of moisture. The spice was stronger here but more from chilli powder rather than actual chilli as I couldn't taste the fragrance of fresh spice. The fried egg and the Chinese leaf lining the plate was the only thing I enjoyed in this dish Sizzling noodles It's weird to have a dish that was so bland when everything was over seasoned and salty. The noodles weren't even fried properly, still firm and lacking that smokiness you get from cooking in a hot wok. I saw onions in the dish but didn't taste it whatsoever. Bombay Chow was quite a disappointment to be honest. All the sauces seem pre-made or bought from an external supplier with no true authentic flavours from either the Indian side or the Orient side. Very westernised. Dishes lacked wok energy as if they just tossed everything in a luke warm wok and then served. The most disturbing issue was that most dishes were way too salty for consumption. It's a shame for such a restaurant that serves such an unique cuisine and has the potential to flourish. At the moment the only things that it can be praised for is it's large portion sizes and excellent customer service. But sadly it's not a good enough reason to return if the food quality does not follow.

Really nice staff. The food was delicious. I ordered the dumplings they were quite delicious…read more Perfect temperature and super fresh! The staff made all the food from scratch. I also ordered the wonton soup and fried wontons which were both absolutely amazing. I can only describe them as a burst of flavour. The broth from the wonton soup was light but still packed with flavour and the fried wontons were the perfect texture of crisp. This was definitely the best Chinese food I've had in a long time definitely a hidden gem!

I dashed into the New Sweet & Sour to purloin a menu on my way home on Thursday with the idea that…read moreI would look at it and see if we liked what we saw and might order from them. We did order only last night. I'm unconvinced how new the New Sweet & Sour actually is, high-tech is certainly is not. The menus are black and white photocopies and the main lure on the front is that the food is "sealed in hygeinic containers", there is no website and the place itself looks like it hasn't changed since the 1980's. The advantage of this is that I don't think the prices have changed mush since then either. We ordered a set meal which was less than £20 and included so much food that we had it for lunch again today. It was not beautifully presented or fancy, but plentiful and pretty tasty. I ordered by phone and the service was pretty faultless and arrived before she said it would. No frills, good value Chinese food for take-away or delivery.
