"My friend told me great stuff about this place and since I was on a holiday and it was a Sunday I was more than willing to try out a place in London that whipped up some Chinese food specially after all the different kind of junk food I had consumed in the afternoon that day. To be honest, I was slightly disappointed with what they served, the portion size was great but the food was rather bland and for the price that we were paying it seemed rather disappointing. There was hardly a crowd and once we were done with dinner they quickly got us our cheque as they wanted to shut (this is even though it wasn't closing time exactly).

beautiful box. always full. cool ambiente. it offers good Chinese food and great cocktails. the menu is diverse: rib, dimmesum, noodles, knödelsalate and much more. honey smoked chicken salad is a must try. the service is average.

good chinese/dim room. had a roasted duck soup and it was very pleasant, the noodles were delicious and the broth was not too oily. The Sim Summs we had (the king prawns) were good, but I think I had better. service was fast and friendly.

Great venue with happy hour drinks 5-7 and good food at good prices! Food ranges from dim sum, to noodles, ribs, squid and more vast selection to choose from. Decent prices 4-7 for a dish) and decent portions. Been here three times and have not been disappointed.

We went there on a Wednesday night and the place was packed! I'd recommend making a prior reservation. The place was all out of dumplings and there are only a few vegetarian options. I had the veg rolls and vegetable fried rice, both tasted good. There are only a few options outside of that.

Food Great service Shocking. I have been to this place several times now and every time the food has been great but disappointingly the service is definitely not to match. The bar guys have always been lovely but the wait staff always really rude and unhelpful. A shame they let the rest of them down.

This used to be a nice easy-going place for some dim-sum. The service has significantly deteriorated (most waiting staff don't even speak english and can't manage to provide service when the place is fairly empty); the quality of the food is slipping; there is zero mainenance on the furniture; and it seems to be out of stock of something every single time we go there. They also tend to bring you chicken steamed buns when you ask for pork. It's time to seriously re-consider management decisions, staff hired, stock management...or close down.

Usually as veggie I find that I often struggle to find a good menu for Chinese food with enough options, but that was definitiw not the case with drunken monkey. I went for the veggie set menu that try more than enough different veggie options for me. the set menu portion sizes are huge, and according to my opinion are a good opportunity for them to explore a little of all the great options that this site has to offer. also this place has happy hour between 5-7 with cocktails price only £5, which in view of its location in shoreditch makes it a great place to eat and drink before a night out offers even more incentive to pay it a visit! 7/10 ok service good eating great variety.more

The worst level of customer service I have ever experience. While the food is reasonable, it is simply not worth it for the treatment you receive I went for a dinner with my girlfriend last week. Having tried 4 times to call and book a table, we decided to risk just turning up and (un)fortunately there was one available. The waitress had the most miserable face I have ever seen and provided no confidence that the previous reviews on poor customer service would not hold true. We ordered a large amount of food and a couple of cocktails. The standard of these was actually reasonable, however it was yet to go seriously downhill On ordering our second cocktail we were provided with a...read more
