"Opened only recently, Taste of China is an authentic Sichuan restaurant, whose head chef is Sichuanese himself. Their 20% discount on launch now sadly no longer available) compelled me to try their hot pot special £23.90 per person for an unlimited number of dishes for 2 hours). Overall, the experience was wholly positive. The staff was incredibly welcoming and friendly, recommending the most fresh dishes for the hotpot itself. As many other hot pot goers may know, fresh produce is of great importance. To begin with, the broth was excellent. The non spicy broth was incredibly well made incredibly fragrant and had a natural but flavourful taste. The spicy broth was to a strong degree of spice but not overpowering. The dishes themselves were good also: the lamb and beef was very up to standard as you'd expect. The fish, for me, was by far the highlight and a must get. The cabbage was fresh. The mushrooms were equally well soured. However, it must be said that I did not enjoy the tofu as much and the pork was rather average also. There is also a wide array of sauces and dips to experiment with although, personally, I tend to stick with a sesame or peanut sauce to complement. Generally, this was a brilliant start for the restaurant. I thoroughly recommend others to go and I'll be back to try their other dishes also."

The best hotpot in London. All you can eat hot pot at £23.8pp. There were so many varieties you can choose from including crab and prawns. All ingredients are super fresh; staff welcoming; interior is clean and well furnished. Highly recommend ;

This place comes highly recommended! The flavors of all the dishes were incredibly delicious and truly authentic. We sampled both the 香ϊ香 and 干 dishes. It's best to dine with a group of 4-8 people so you can try more of the menu. I will definitely be visiting here again to try more options!

There are so many options! The beef is delicious and the fish is incredibly fresh! The service is excellent as well! I saw positive reviews on Chinese social media, which prompted me to visit this restaurant. I really enjoyed my experience and will definitely come back with friends next time.

we had only one reservation to show that they were closed. I understand that they are closed to christmas, but I think they should at least update their reservations. we just showed up to see a sign on the door that they are actually closed. it was too late to get somewhere else a reservation as we had our 1 year old son with us.

The food here is incredibly delicious! I always order through Deliveroo, and everything I've tried has been fresh and flavorful. I've sampled various dishes, and each one has been fantastic. The service is quick, the packaging is excellent, and the delivery is prompt. Plus, they’re open until 11:00 PM, which is wonderful. Highly recommended!

We made a reservation only to arrive and discover that the restaurant was closed. While I understand that some places close for Christmas, I believe it’s important to update their reservation system accordingly. When we got there, we found a sign on the door indicating that they were indeed closed. Unfortunately, by that time, it was too late to book somewhere else, especially since we were accompanied by our 1-year-old son.

TLDR, Not all dishes meet my expectation, but I give it 5 stars mainly because of their dry-wok and some other dishes which are really impress me. Had ordered their dry-wok numerous times. Everything has been sizzled to spicy perfection. Mouth might go numb from the heatwave of peppercorn, but I just cant help myself to indulge in the 2nd round. 5 stars dishes: Their Sweet Sour Pork Tenderloin, Sliced beef lungs and Ox tongue in Chilli Sauce also impress me. 4 stars: all you can eat hot pot, reasonable priced and good range of selection. Others: not impress, some even not meet my expectation. All in all, it is worth to try if you know what you want to eat.

We ordered their takeaway before and have always been pleased with the quality and taste (we love their dry wok 干锅 dishes), but it was our first time to eat in the restaurant yesterday. Everything tasted very fresh, full of flavour yet not too salty. We had Mouth watering chicken 口水鸡 , my personal favourite of the night; Fish fragrant aubergine 鱼香茄子 , great balance of flavours; Morning glory with garlic 蒜蓉空心菜 , which I highly recommend, and Spicy frog legs 香辣馋嘴蛙 , which was nice although I 'm not sure that the very many aubergine pieces worked particularly well in this dish... But, the best of all was how lovely the staff were so warm, friendly and attentive, very kind peo...
