"Chung Ying is a mix of a restaurant and a bar. Contemporary setting with both a great food menu and a great cocktail menu. Good atmosphere and when eating it doesn't feel as if a rowdy bar has taken over and when there to drink it doesn't feel like a stuffy formal restaurant, so a good mix. We went for a drink on the Friday as part of the Birmingham Cocktail Weekend and were actually looking to eat there so were really disappointed to find that they'd booked a large function; surely they must have known the trade from the Cocktail Weekend would make them busier anyway so that was disappointing. Returned the next day though to tick the venue off the list and were not disappointed with the drink which was delicious and seeing people around us having items off a special weekend dim sum menu whetted the appetite so we had an item off there as well which was very tasty. Good fast service."

"The food is great, but the management has gone south. The staff seemed over anxious to clear our table literally minutes after they brought the food out. Thereafter we felt like we were being asked to leave every five minutes. The icing on the cake was when they turned on bright lights at (when the kitchen was supposed to close at and we literally had to step over a Hoover to get out. Terrible service never going back there. What a shame with such good food!"
