As a big fan of dim sum it's quite hard to impress but Royal China went above and beyond my expectations. The Dim Sum menu is huge, so much variety and with a lot of Authentic Chinese ingredients-not just what caters to western tastes!

Such quick service (even on weekends), the food always arrives piping hot - and most importantly, always tastes great! There are just too many 'Chinese' restaurants around, so it great to have some authenticity to go back to all the time! The waitresses just need to learn to smile, though.

My better half and I regularly visit Royal China for Dim Sum, as a previous review has said it's fantastic and probably the best in London (certainly for the price!). It gets extremely busy with a queue generally formed long in advance of it's 12pm opening. The price is extremely reasonable (especially for London!) and being near the Queensway tube... More

Excellent Cantonese fare in nice enough surroundings. Dim Sum on Sundays has people queuing round the block! Go early. The West London branch, which is the primary one, in Queensgate, is being refurbished, but the ones in Baker Street are also great.

Wonderful Cantonese food ,served quickly and stylishly. A superb selection cooked fresh and promptly delivered. Wines are to be avoided, stick to beer and the bill is reasonable. To be recommended.

Was very disappointed with my last visit to this restaurant as l have eaten here many times before and loved it. Menu has changed, prices have gone up again ( it was already expensive anyway) and food standards have slipped. My hot and sour soup was not spicy or sour and the dumplings lacked flavour. I asked the staff if... More
