Lovely restaurant. Fantastic food, wonderful friendly staff with a great atmosphere. Very attentive but not in your face at any time. Would eat there again the next time I visited London. Would recommend it if you want real hot gorgeous food
A regular lunch visitor. Great food and expedient. Perfect for lunch if you dont have much time. Will be back soon. Dim sung and special fried rice with prawn perfect.
Delicious food, huge portions and incredibly friendly staff who went out of their way to make sure my birthday meal with 12 friends was a relaxed and happy affair.
It serves delicious food that is full of flavour and spice with very friendly service. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend eating here. Order the House speciallities and you’ll not be disappointed.
We had a very good evening on our first-ever visit to the Sichuan restaurant. The food was interesting and tasty, the service very good and the atmosphere was lively without being too hectic. We'd definitely go again.
Wasn't as spicy as I was hoping and a few dishes lacked depth like Mapu Tofu. Some other dishes were great though including the cumin beef.
Amazing food, get the grilled fish. The service was really friendly and funny. We really enjoyed ourselves and ate far too much. Will be back.
Excellent! The hot and sour soup was to die for. Many of the other dishes looked wonderful, too - and we will most certainly be back. I lived in China for almost ten years and this is amongst the very best restaurants of its kind outside China I have visited - and very reasonable with it.
it is an marvellous experience. I lead some foreigners to try, and they all like the spicy grilled fish so much. A nice choice, and come back again!
Excellent tasty authentic Sichuan food, the owner carefully explained everything and the service being very attentive. Speed of service was incredible fast. Be prepared to come in for a feast with a group of friends.
Great food and very helpful staff. Will recommend it my friends and go again. Well done! The restaurant is also located at a convenient location.
Very friendly, helpful staff who made us feel very welcome. Food was delicious and came very quickly. It was quiet in there on a Saturday at lunchtime - hope it does well during the week as it's a very good restaurant.
Great food as always. Good service as well. They changed their dishes to made them vegetarian. Meat dishes were classic sichuan. Good value as well
Delicious food at a very reasonable price for central London. Good service, let my friend and i sit at a table for 4 without complaint!
We love this place. It's right next to our office and it does a good job of presenting authentic cuisine at reasonable prices. Great and discerning wine list, also eminently affordable. Very popular, we're not alone in loving it, was already packed when 7 of us turned up for lunch at 12.30 today. If you're passing or keen to eat Sichuan cooking in an atmosphere of friendly excitement without paying the earth this is really worth checking out.
Good food which arrived quickly after ordering. Great staff. Was nice and busy on the Saturday night but not loud. Only downside - it was a little cold in the restaurant.
very good resto. finally a chinese that offers something different. tasty although sometimes too spicy for my tastes but that is just me. will be back.
This was third time we have been there.Food is always good. Service there is very caring and thoughtful. We had a lovely time there. We will go there again
Very efficient service. Great food. Very generous portions. Friendly atmosphere. Ate there twice in one week whilst in London on business. Good value for money. Would recommend.
Food was good in general. The only disappointment was fried rice. The quality of rice was not great... The table can be booked only for 1.5 hours.
As great as always. Food is always very good, service friendly and prompt and everything is reasonably priced. Will keep coming back. Thank you Sichuan
Food was delicious and priced reasonably. Service was efficient. The only reason why I have not rated 6 is because the beef from the beef in chilli oil dish seemed a bit off. The texture doesn’t seem consistent with the same dish i’ve Had here before and other Sichuan restaurants. As a result my stomach feels a bit funny this morning..
An incredibly good restaurant. Food not the least bit greasy. Most dishes will leave your mouth tingling with a numbing feeling so be warned. Aubergine is cooked more ways than you could imagine. Service superb, even when restaurant is at capacity.
We really enjoyed the food which had that authentic mainland Chinese flavour. My wife who is from Xian always moans about the quality of Chinese food in England but she thoroughly enjoyed the dishes. The beef was particularly flavoursome.
Good food, terrible service - was really impressed with flavours, bit pricey though - and the 12% service charge was a joke due to the restaurant being empty with very inattentive service...
The service is nice, yet maybe due to the lunch limited time, the dishes took longer time than I expected to be on the table.
Convenient location, Tasty dishes and reasonably priced. The only proper Sichuan restaurant I know in the City area. Would reccomend to people loving spicy Sichuan dishes.
Very good food. Quick friendly and reliable service. And it’s relatively reasonably priced compared with similar restaurants in the area. Will go back and try different things of the menu.

Delicious spicy food and friendly service. Go with a group so you can order a wide range of dishes. The refreshing fungi, smashed cucumber, and the tofu with minced pork were personal favourites.
Excellent food as always and lovely staff. Twice cooked pork! Spicy green beans! Some beef dish that I’ve forgotten the name of but was awesome! Eat here!
Food very good Good atmosphere - packed at lunch great service The Sichuan is as good as any fancy Chinese restaurant in the west end.
This is my FAVOURITE Sichuan restaurant ever! The food is so spicy and delicious. I have been to most of the Sichuan restaurants in London and this one is by far the best. Service is quick and variety of food is excellent. Their dumplings in chilli oil is a must. I've been here 7 times already and will be coming back again.
The restaurant is excellent, authentic and reasonably priced. The service was good. We will definitely return here to sample more of the menu. I recommend the fungus
We were not happy with one of the dishes ordered. We raised our concern with the waiter, but the manager came over and started an argument with us. He sounded quite insulting - saying that we picked up on their cooking for the sake of not wanting to pay for that particular dish. He also rushed us to pay the bill and leave the restaurant. This is simply not an attitude to run service-oriented business.
Superb authentic Chinese food and great service - really good fun sharing dishes with colleagues on our table of 10. A few dishes familiar to western tastes as well for the less adventurous. Spicy means spicy so be careful!
Excellent food & good service Great variety and menu choice One of the best Chinese restaurants iv been to in London & my wife who is Chinese agreed
Lovely tasty food - and lots of it - my guest and I both took home what we couldn't eat - excellent friendly and attentive service and a nice atmosphere. Food was a tiny bit oily - hence the 4 stars not 5.
I went as part of a group of 12 for a late lunch on Saturday. The restaurant was able to arrange one large round table in a private area at the back of the restaurant. This was a perfect arrangement and most suitable for conversation and the sharing of dishes. Service was friendly and efficient , and we all enjoyed the food. The wines were also good, and when the bill arrived, we all thought it was value for money.
Excellent birthday lunch. Fantastic food and service. Looked after us very well including a vegan and two children. It is the best Sichuan restaurant in London. I highly recommend it.
