Tried the roast duck, nice and succulent. Compares favourably with Four Seasons. Service was prompt and efficient. Will return the next time I visit London
Verdict: gold nugget
If you've heard a little about it, people tend to compare Gold Mine and Four Seasons. This is really subjected to personal preference. Four Seasons is much more popular, but Gold Mine is picking up! When I first visited Gold Mine in 2012, the shop was fairly small with just one shoplot. Today, they have occupied the shop next to it and have expanded!
This place deserve my 5 stars
Hands down one of the best Chinese food joint I've ever tried. Ordered the roast duck & deep fried king prawn in crushed garlic goldmine style. They have this special blend of chili oil that worked well with any dish and nothing like I ever tried before.
The 4.3 rating they have now just don't do justice. Awesome food, must try!

So many people had told me about the Roast Duck at Gold Mine. I have lunch in this area every 7-10 days and end up at My default picks for Thai or Spanish food most of the time, so this time I set out determined to eat the roast duck at Gold Mine and check what the fuss was all about.
Oh my! That duck was gorgeous! The fat melting in the mouth was like a beautiful piece of pork fat - I've never tasted duck fat like that & at the same time the skin was crispy too and the meat ever so tender.
My favourite meat is pork, but the barbecued pork (also good) did not hold a candle to this roast duck!
I chose the Singapore vermicelli noodles to go with my meal. They were just what I wanted - really thin fine noodles, fried up street food style and just perfect with the fat of that perfect duck. All 3 dishes for 22£.
I've got to take the family here to try this duck. I was lucky to not have to brave a queue at 2:30pm, but the restaurant was quite full. However, I must say that standing in line would be worth it for this roast duck. Just the duck & a side of noodles or rice would be perfect.
Would advice to make booking before arriving. Long queue, full of people, tight spaces. Nevertheless, great service, good food. Would come back again.
Friendly serving staff.
Good tasty dishes with big portions.
Fully recommend roast duck, nice and lean with full of flavours but not too tough, just as it should be!
Amazing Chinese food spot, one of my favourite dim sum and roasted duck. Delicious food, not oily and affordable price in central London so far. We loved fried king prawns with sales egg yolks so much. Worth a try if you're in the area.
Really love the roast duck here. I usually not a duck eater hence this place is the only place where I have my duck cravings. My must go to places whenever I come to London.
Their signature eggs is also another dish to die for. One of the must order dish for me.
They have the signature crispy duck which tasted super delicious, a fried version of the tradition Peking ducks wrap with popiah skin and the usual condiments.
The servers are attentive and always welcoming. It feels more like a family setting than a restaurant where I really enjoy the atmosphere there.
Service is prompt even though they are busy.
I’ll always visit here whenever I come to London.
All I can say is wow this place is amazing and is easily the best Dim Sum we have had in London, perhaps even the UK. Delicious food, not oily and the prices for central London are reasonable. The BBQ honey roast pork on rice is also really delicious!! I can't recommend this restaurant enough. If you are in the area, give it a try!
Very delicious roast duck - much juicier and fattier than what you might get in Asian countries. The morning glory with sambal chili is not spicy enough for my Singaporean tastebuds, but still a crunchy and delicious vegetable. Atmosphere is as authentic as they come, bustling with activity and noise.
