"Having lived in China, my standards for dim sum are quite high. I was travelling to London for a few days and I was looking for a place to have my fiance try xiao long bao and dim sum (we're French and it's almost impossible to find good dim sum in Paris so I always wait to go back to China or to London to have good dim and well executed xiao long bao. I read the reviews about Min Jiang and thought Min Jiang could be the rare gem I was looking for (a decade ago, I used to go to Hutong to eat dim sum in London, but the quality has decreased unfortunately. Too bad their xiao long bao used to be as good as Shanghai's Nan Jin Xi Lu Din Tai Fung's from the 2000s not Din Tai Fung today . Both my fiance and I were extremely pleased with our experience at Min Jiang, not only was the service very polite, kind and attentive but it's one of the best dim sum experience I've had in a really long time... We ordered several steam dumplings and not only did they look good, they tasted even better. The dough had the perfect consistency for each dumpling, beautifully thin but strong enough to hold the fillings. The fillings were so well executed, the meat in the classic pork xiao long bao was quite thin in texture, the soup was delicious, no overpowering taste of ginger, the crab and pork xiao long bao had less soup (because of the consistency of crab meat I suppose but it was a lovely take on the dumpling and we strongly recommend you try both. We also recommend all the other meat or seafood steamed dumplings (except the Cha Siu Bao, the only disappointment of our lunch , have the prawn dumpling in chili oil, a dreamy explosion of flavours in the mouth... Definitely order the Yangzhou egg fried rice, if you haven't had delicious authentic egg fried rice in a while, you will be over the moon. Last but not least, bless your tastebuds with the scallop with ginger and sprinkles onion... You will never forget the experience. Thank you Min Jiang for this dream of a lunch..."

"I recently moved to the area as a student and would often pass Thai Pad Thai going into town. From the outside it’s a quaint but colourful establishment which is always brimming make sure you book! Our group was welcomed with only smiles and hellos, and even accommodated for a late change to the booking by squeezing an extra chair on the end of the table. The atmosphere was charming with couples and families all dining and enjoying their evening. The extensive menu catered for all palettes and dietary requirements. The food is remarkably presented but the taste was superior to any oriental food I’d tasted in Brighton. An exceptionally good night and we walked out with full bellies and agreeing it was a very memorable place which we shall return to for both takeaway and dine in. Thank you to the whole team for a lovely birthday meal and all the heart that went into the food."

"so happy to have found during my week stay in london halal koreas eating! I ordered the tofu seafood jjigae and beef bibimbap for me and had the most amazing meal I am a fan of Korean cuisine and eating in kinkao korea could not taste more authentic, homemade and tasty. the chef is really generous with the part of the seafood in the stew and the bibimbap had all the highlights of a stone pot bibibap! the fluffy short-grain rice was coupled with crispy pieces of burned rice (like the species as it should be and the sauce was made in the house and had the perfect balance of sweet, spicy and sour. all the aromas of bibimbap came together harmoniously and it was the perfect antidote...read more"

"This restaurant serves the best Thai food we have ever had outside of Thailand. The staff member who served us was the nicest we have encountered in any restaurant. They adjusted the chili heat levels for us, recommended dishes based on our preferences, and even offered to accommodate us for the night when it seemed we might be locked out. As self-proclaimed foodies who cook at a high standard at home, we thoroughly enjoyed our meal and had many conversations with the staff. We will definitely return to this restaurant if we ever find ourselves back in Sheffield."

Then i said i have a booking at 12.30 and was asked name of booking. I did’nt feel anything special even after mentioning it was a birthday lunch. After food was finished they came and took the plates, hubby went for toilet i told the waiter its my husband birthday to that i was replied ok nice, nothing else. I was disappointed aa i waa expecting a little more."

"Have visited this restaurant many times and always been impressed with food, service etc. Our last visit seemed to be not up to their usual high standard possibly due to being very busy. Food was slow to arrive there was a long gap between different parts of our main and the drinks arrived after the starters. The wait staff were rushed off their feet but kept their composure and could not be faulted. They did knock 10% off the bill. If we visit again it won’t be on a Saturday."
"Yesterday we ordered a deliveroo delivery from Thai corner cafe in east dulwich as we have done for years. Food is always great but yesterday the food arrived two hours to late. When we rang to ask the line was disconnected and from thereon an answering service replied. Please get your act together this was disastrous service."

"My partner and I use to go to this restaurant quite a lot before covid and always enjoyed ourselves, good food, drinks and the service. Not much has changed for us in that respects except now there was only one lady taking orders etc. There was about 10 people in the restaurant and she seemed to serve everyone in an orderly fashion, we didn't have to wait too long for the food to come and it was delicious, our main was great, I had the green Thai Curry, and my partner had the crispy seabass, excellent, we couldn't finish it all and took the rest home. We enquired as to how the business was going and she said it is now starting to pick up, they had 20 staff at one point but after Covid had to let them go. It made me sad to see the other bad reviews on here as this place is worth a visit, not sure what happened when those visits were made but our experience was great. Gave four stars because they weren't serving Cocktails, but this was easily fixed as there are two cocktail bars along Westow Hill."

"a real hit or miss that is a scandal, as it is the only good sushi around the soft bowl crab is good, like the sushi and the general standard of the food. However, the hot eating can disappoint the greatest sleepers of this place are the ridiculous time that it takes to get food, the non-maintenance of the foreign staff and the fact that maybe once from 40 deliveries I have actually got everything I have paid and again only once I have been properly compensated for, I will continue to use it, but I like to lick my food now, so I check, I have actually everything."

"I visited this restaurant after coming straight from Vietnam, so I can confidently say that both the food and service are top-notch! The venue is lovely and has a relaxing atmosphere; it's not too cramped. I went on a Tuesday evening, so I can't speak to how busy it gets on weekends, but I can definitely rave about the food and drinks. The cocktails are fascinating, and the wine selection is excellent!"

"Good to find this in the centre near Portsmouth and Southsea station, 2 mins walk. Chinese fast food to eat in or go, freshly prepared. Friendly service- sort of choose your own items from 4 sections of the menu and then the chef prepares it,...usual chicken, prawns etc and then a good selection of veg, topped off with a sauce. Served in a US style carton box. Slightly too much sauce for my liking, but no big deal. Side orders of prawn crackers and spring rolls, other items too. Soft drinks. Nice for a quick bite, but not a relaxing Chinese restaurant of course."

"Family style Japanese restaurant with exceedingly high all round standard and authenticity in London. Some may find the menu is not overly comprehensive but this is exactly what a fine Japanese restaurant would operate only focusing the best they could offer. If you want to visit this restaurant make sure you have reservation and be punctual as this is also a fine tradition of Japanese restaurant."
