China Tang at The Dorchester Hotel

Lovely food and decor.

Best Chinese food in London One of the best in the west.

Best Beijing Duck in the country and excellent value for two to four people with a few side dishes added.

Clever creativeness with ingredients from the restaurant's own garden and local suppliers, an exemplary Coravin wine flight, and unfussy ambience.

Excellent food, beautifully served but kind, considerate and professional staff in a lovely environment.

Saturday night dinner at China Tang. Beautiful dim sum to start followed by stunning salt and pepper squid and prawns. Our rice didn't arrive. Our drinks order was lost 3 times. The mango cheesecake was fantastic. Don't bother with the chocolate dumplings for dessert. You get 4 tiny dumplings so small they all fit on one dessert spoon and are gone in one mouthful and £7 for the privilege! Shame such lovely food was let down by the very strange and patchy service.

I came to China Tang on Monday 8th April, i arrived with some freinds to celebrate my new clothing company thats being launched. All i have to say is that we were treated like royalty, the food was full of taste and cooked to perfection, the staff when we entered the restaurent in the basement area were very helpful and polite, and all stood with pretty smiles on their faces. The cocktails we had before our meal were (no word fo a lie) the best in London. I highly recommend this place the bar's atmosphere is wonderful, the decor is stunning. The place is one of the places to be in London.

I visited China Tang on Saturday 23rd Feb for birthday dinner. On arrival we were shown to possibly the worst table despite the place being nearly empty. It took very long to place an order as the waiting staff were disorganised and simply nowhere around. The waitress was very unprofessional and distracted. Upon ordering we were told that food will arive as it's ready and not at the same time which was shocking considering the ''acclaimed high standard of the restaurant''. In fact all dishes arrived at different times. Half of the food got cold before one of our main courses arrived 45 minutes late. The staff admitted they got it wrong, meaning they forgot to cook it. The manager was apologetic and did not charge us for 2 dishes. One of the main courses was chicken with cashew nuts which should be instead called cashews with minute amounts of chicken in it. The amount of cashews in this dish was extraordinary large and we were struggling to actually find the chicken pieces which were cut to a size of green peas. I've never experienced similar oddiness. I'm used to dining in the best restaurants in London and can confidently say China Tang does not fit into fine dining category by any means. I will never return there and do not recommend it.

Amazing place. The food is a little over priced, so I wouldn't eat here everyday but when you do, you're in for a treat. Staff are polite and very helpful. I would recommend this place to anyone.

While the food is good it is overpriced and you get either same quality a lot cheaper somewhere else or even better quality. It is stylish but feels a bit soulless and stiff
