This is a great place and the sort of restaurant the area needs - upmarket Chinese food! They have tasty food and good service. Can’t say I noticed the staff being on our back like some of the other reviews - they were very friendly. The Char Sui pork and duck pancakes were the stand out for me, and whilst the chicken wings were tiny, they were very tasty. Squid was also tasty, but it really needs to come with a dip. If I could I’d rate this place a 4.5 out of five, and only because I agree with some of the other reviews that the prices are a bit high for the amount of food you get. But still worth the visit

I had the most amazing time here. Everything us Brits expect from your run of the mill Chinese Takeaway, refined, renewed and done to perfection. Open kitchen, and incredible service.
The highlights for me where the chicken wings and the special fried rice.
The chicken wings were little pockets of deliciousness and came with a refressing green dipping sauce that I wanted to have for the rest of the meal.
And the special fried rice, well.... if that isn't soul food, I don't know what it. It was a true delight. It was nice a fatty, without being greasy, and each spoonful felt like a trip to my happy place.
The open kitchen is always a comfort it me. And the service was impeccable. Attentive, friendly, but in no way overbearing. I've never had a place top up table water when you've paid the bill and getting ready to leave.
We are blessed with some truly amazing places to eat in this area, and this one is definitely up there with the best.
Must visit. One of the best Chinese restaurants in South London. Some spectacular dishes include the Char Sui pork and Dan Dan noodles (very floral).
It's grown up, it's tasty and very good. Slightly on the pricy side but it's worth it for this level of quality, all dishes taste full of flavour, no greasy aftertaste.
Great staff and host.
As a HongKonger I have to say The Red Duck nailed it in bringing authentic Cantonese dishes to London. We had Singaporean style fried noodles, char siu (BBQ pork) and mushroom fried rice, all are so tasty and genuine, at a level of quality hard to find even in Hong Kong. Will definitely come back again and again.
Would recommend. Fast service, good quality food, medium sized portions. Not the cheapest but good value considering the quality.
