Food is delicious!!! We were in London in the summer and had the peking duck — this Fall when we returned to London, we just HAD to go back and order it again! Absolutely amazing!!! The dim sum dumplings and crispy chili beef were also delicious!
Excellent food and great service! Highly recommend it, if you are around Leicester Square (Chinatown). We came for the dim sum and stayed for the entire dinner time meal. We ate a whole variety of dishes from dim sum to Peking duck to pork belly to pak choi. Everything was fresh and excellent.
It was a perfect to eat our lunch here after a tiring morning going around first day tour in London, the staff were knowledgeable about their business and very courteous. The food was serve in excellent manner and delicious. The place was cleaned and in order. Thanks for these and we are coming back again.
Good food, good service ! Had the dim sum, which was delicious, and the beef noodles was delectable. Highly recommended!!
A great little family-owned restaurant with yummy homemade dumplings and excellent service! Came here for a quick dinner right before the kitchen closed and were greeted with lovely hospitality, we weren’t rushed out or turned away. The food itself was very tasty - classic, nostalgic Chinese cuisine in generous portions and prices you don’t see in London anymore, and you can tell love and effort was put into it. The prawn and chive dumplings and Shanghai dumplings were delicious, and so was the veggie packed fried rice.
We’ve eaten at so many restaurants in Chinatown and this was by far the friendliest. The waiter was helpful, patient and so polite. The dim sum was good and the duck noodle soup was tasty. Reasonably priced and there was no wait for a seat even though the restaurant was busy. Tables were comfortable and food came quickly. Next door to a fantastic supermarket too. I can’t wait to go again
Great food, fine service, reasonable price. Delighted a hard to please old Hong Kong hand 😎😎😎
We really enjoyed this restaurant. We had spring rolls, beef hor fun and beef in black bean sauce with egg fried rice. Everything was hot and fresh and the meat was excellent quality. The service was super fast and friendly too, an hour was plenty of time. Highly recommend if you’re in Chinatown.
Excellent dim sum…the bao was delicious, the crispy duck was very tasty and tender and the spareribs were very nice too. The staff was friendly and helpful. The atmosphere was nice and cozy. We really enjoyed it. It’s really worth a visit.
Absolute treat 😋😋😋 to the soul. Filled with flavours delicious food. Restaurant looks bot small from outside but inside there is plenty of seating space. Super friendly and helpful staff will explain or advice anything regarding food or dishes served.
One of definitely must visit while in the area of Soho.
This was a brilliant find. The beef Szechuan was stunning - a deliciously complex and devilishly spicy stew. Very fair prices and great service - thank you so much. Ben.
Absolutely loved the starters - the buns and the dim sums.
The vegetarian options were lovely and plentiful.
More importantly, loved the fact that they didn't tone down the spiciness levels of the hot dishes like szechuan tofu.
Ordered the seafood lettuce wrap ,👍. Also Yangchou fried rice. Not as salty as I like. But it's really personal. I overheard a customer who was eating Malaysia Hokkien Mee. They add pork lard 😋 to the noodles. Anyway the noodles looked delicious but I had already my food. Oh the wanton were fresh and the broth great.
I must go back and try.
Will go back for their dim sum
We randomly stumbled soon this place. Food was amazing and the service was excellent. Will definitely return when visiting the area again, highly recommended.
Great restaurant, the food excellent and service very friendly and accommodating. They also helped us charge our phone.

One of the best Chinese restaurants I've been to. Would recommend to anyone I almost know who is looking for not a grand experience but still wants to be served classic dim sum and good food with kind and generous staff. If 6 stars was an option, San Chiu Dim would achieve it.
I think the dim sum is above average here. Nothing that wowed me but everything is how it should be and done well. The iron Buddha tea could be better (I guess not many people order tea here?) And table was a bit small though. Chilli oil was also not spicy enough / lacking fragrance.
We also had 福建炒飯 that was also very good - it was piping hot all the seafood was cook well with good texture and you still get the aroma from the veg and fried rice
Usually, when I go to a Chinese restaurant, the staff treats me unkindly, but this restaurant changed owners when it became a dim sum restaurant, and now it's very friendly and friendly. It's good that the serving time is short even though it's a busy time.
We had a goal to eat dinner in Chinatown and just happened upon this place. Everything we ordered was very good. My husband especially thought the Hot Sour Soup was the best he’s had. The crispy duck also got rave reviews from my family. I particularly liked the chow mein, which was smokey and reminiscent of something I haven’t had for about 20 years. They also have AC inside, which is such a relief on a hot day in London. Service was awesome and fast as well. Total bill was just under £100 for 5 of us, including beverages (4 sodas and 1 beer).
