Liz G.’s latest review

Phoenix Palace (5 Glentworth Street, London, NW1 5PG)

Went there for a family dinner on Saturday (two reasons behind choosing this place was – Chinese and child-friendly). Had a very good meal – enjoyed through and through, even by my fussy-and-very-little-eating 8 y.o. son. For starters, Chrispy seaweed came in a generous portion and of very pleasant taste, and deep fried shredded squid was nicely done (I would prefer it more salty, but that's my individual salt-mad taste). Peking dumpling in soya chilli dressing were a bit bland to my taste, or may be required a different sauce, but Crab meat sweek corn soup was very very nice. For mains, King prawn with scrambled egg was perfect for the kid (succulent huge prawns in a delicious scrambled egg), Quick fried Squid with morning glory in shrimp paste was absolutely delicious, and Enoki Mushroom E-Fu Noodle was very nicely cooked and came in a huge portion (had to share between us too and took some home as well).
For Saturday night dinner the place was packed full, but this did not affect the service which was very prompt and efficient, the toilets clean and decorated to a high standard, and the kid watched the fish in the aquarium and got a lovely paper dragon to play with. Will definitely be back.
