    OK restaurant, nothing special, bad service. Would not necessarily visit again. I'll start with the positives: This is a nice Chinese cuisine restaurant. The decoration is interesting and the band they had was really good. We also all enjoyed the food we got. But: The food although it was good, it was not exceptional considering the prices. You had to pay £10 each for the Band extra, I would prefer it if they had a set amount per table to pay for the band. The cocktails were good. The service: Not good. In the beginning our waiter was helpful but after the starters the service started to get worse. We wanted toorder water for the table but had to really try to get attention from a waiter and then they forgot us so we had to remind thm to bring us some water. And generally the stuff was not very attentive. After we had finished our main course the waiters cleaned up our table and then basically left us alone. They didn't come to ask if we need anything else and they didn't offer us Dessert. We wanted to order dessert and ask the waiters for a Menu. They had again forgotten us. We asked literally 4 times for it and then were handed out the menus. By that time though we got really bored and we were also frustrated so we just payed the bill and left.

    The entertainment and drinks were the best bits about this restaurant. The staff were all lovely but the food was poor. I wouldn't complain about it, but there was nothing which impressed me or my friend. It was very underwhelming. I would describe the quality similar to a bar or pub, not a restaurant. My friend often eats at very high end restaurants in London, I have travelled extensively in Asia and often eat out. Both of us came away saying it was nice but not at all special. I couldn't recommend it to a friend. It's incredible reading other reviews. Many say similar to myself, other say this place is amazing. If you think this is amazing, you really need to get out more.

    We went for Sunday lunch and ordered a variety of dim sum dishes to try - the prawn cheung fun was excellent, the rest were good except for the scallops in the dumplings which was sandy and not pleasant to eat - they were not cleaned properly which was a disappointment for a restaurant at this price point. I would have raised it at the time except nobody actually came to ask us how everything was - again a disappointment for a restaurant like this. On the bill there was an additional £5 per person entertainment surcharge which was a surprise as it was not on the menu or website, and service charge was 15% on top of surcharge… overall we were disappointed and thought the extra charges were stealthy and should have been disclosed. A £150+ lunch for 2 should have had better service?

    Park Chinois is a very upscale and fancy Chinese restaurant at the heart of Central London. The vibes and interiors are really nice and well themed. It’s got an old school classy feeling to it. The live jazz band is also a great touch. The food here is also really good. Really recommend the starters to share. We also ordered a main each to share. Definitely get the carbonara. A really interesting dish! Highly recommend to finish with the dessert platter. We were able to share this across four people. Small little bites to finish off a good meal!

    A wonderfully unique dining experience, food was standard, but the vibe was wonderful and has overshadowed the quality of the food. Good menu with a variety of exquisite dishes. Good service as well, taking great care to explain the whole menu, giving suggestions and making sure we were well taken care of. Expensive, but you don't really get the same experience anywhere else.

    Beautiful ambiance and great selection of menu and entertainment. I've dined both upstairs and downstairs. Downstairs has more of a vibe and performances. Their whiskey cocktails are on point and the mixologist takes pride in making them to perfection - favorite included Rye Riviere. Good place for a date or family dinner I always try and pop in when I'm in London and craving Chinese food - try the Wasabi prawns!

  • 5/5 Mission To M. 1 year ago on Google
    Who can deny Chinese food and music are absolutely compatible. The place was decorated in classic style that give feeling of Chinese mafia period. All food is good especially Peking duck. This place is good music lover, chill out dining with your special person. Highly recommended!!

    Food was good, service very slow, there was no waiter at first, we kept calling until the supervisor came and took our orders by himself, and I really appreciate that, and I wish I knew his name. Another thing that the show is not my cup of tea at all

  • 5/5 Rubens C. 2 years ago on Google
    If you're looking for a not so common restaurant bar in London, this place could be a very good choice. Sensual performances of a diverse genres in a very sophisticated way is something that really worth it to appreciate specially in the amazing and irreverent atmosphere of this bar. Service is wonderful, performances are so great, atmosphere unique, posh people and nice DJ.

    I would give it a one star for the soup that I was given. I would give it 0 there on. My first disappointment was the service where I had to ask staff on multiple occasions before my order was taken. Secondly, the food made me and my fiancee really ill and rather than apologising, they decided to send me to some third party investigation body that did nothing. Great work guys! But honestly, go to the other guys up the street for a better experience

    Came here to celebrate our friends' wedding dinner. In general, the setting is absolutely lovely and lush, and it feels really fancy. We were upstairs in the main dining room. We ordered a bunch of different foods to share, and I can highly recommend the squid and the dimsum sharer. The chicken in general all tasted more or less the same (we ordered 4 mains of chicken), so I would recommend switching it up. We were sitting right in front of the band, and the only downside was that it was excessively loud, as in you couldn't even hear the singer singing because the instruments were TOO loud.

    The ambiance is delightful, enhanced by live music and decor that authentically transports you to a Chinese restaurant. The food is enjoyable, and the service is commendable. However, the unexpected behavior of some patrons was quite unsettling, with an adjacent table featuring older men accompanied by young women who seemed to be escorts engaging in inappropriate behavior. On the other side, a couple attempted to leave without settling the bill. Unsure about the dress code, but it felt like we were more conservatively dressed than the average guest. These were not the only two strange occurrences I noticed, but I'll leave it at that. Considering these factors, I question whether it's worthwhile to spend a minimum of £150 per person in this venue.

    First up, the restaurant strikes you with its dark red and plush interiors. There was a live performance when we arrived for Saturday lunch. The food is a pan-Asian offering, but we stuck to Chinese fare. The veg schezwan dumpling was the highlight of the meal, but we really enjoyed the crab puff and the pork ribs as well. This is an expensive affair, but felt like we were getting value for money. I will return at some point of time to try out the rest of the menu!

    Fabulous experience - good food, cocktails, & service. The atmosphere is truly unique and provides an unforgettable experience. However, the price tag versus the food quantity can be stark and the noise difficult to manage for any guests who are hard of hearing. You will often have to share multiple starters or mains to have enough, but still the taste & experience makes it worth it.

    The food, ambiance, and service were great!We had the Truffle dumpling, black Truffle Cheung fun, XO Wagyu steak fried rice, and Bang bang chicken. 10/10. Not sure why we were charged a £5/person entertainment charge when there was no entertainment the whole time we were there?? Nevertheless, it was a great time!

  • 4/5 Ruby 1 year ago on Google
    Went for the ambience and decor- they have decent Cantonese food, not the best if you are looking for an amazing food experience as dim sum there are mediocre, but with fine materials which explains the price. Their best dishes: Braised short ribs, soups as starters. Truffle rice was personally not outstanding especially with the way the waiter attempted to ‘play around’ with it in the claypot before serving. Overall a great experience if you look for extra performances and want to impress someone over a meal.

    My experience was so bad from the moment I have entered. I have called for a reservation and told them I have kids and he was so understandable. When I entered with my guests, they said you have a reservation in the club and kids are not allowed, I have checked my email again and showed him that it was in the salone. Later when they seat us nobody came to us or welcomed us or even gave us a menu for almost 15 mins. The atmosphere was so bad and the table beside us were so drank, they filled on me while I am pregnant. However, the food is so good especially the duck (we have requested for the duck in advance) except for the chicken in the photo it wasn’t good.

    Delightful evening out 🦚 Live music 🎼 opulent interior, silver service with a smile and delectable elevated Chinese dishes. The music was a double bass, piano and a most talented and enchanting young singer 💃🏽 Gorgeous renditions of old classic crooning. The concept appears to be 1920's London Speakeasy come gilded orient mystique. It's quite posh but relaxed. Very pricey but lovely for a treat. I was there on a Monday so no burlesque and fantasy - just a lovely evening out. The sweet & sour pork was a triumph in simplicity, exquisite ingredients and balance. The steamed bass, sadly, set us back over £50 but had a sauce that was a little cloying. The natural flavour of the flesh was sadly lost. Too much mirin maybe?

    With so many amazing Chinese restaurants in London you need to be selective which ones you choose to dine at. Although the meal was pleasant, interior was nice, staff overall was friendly, good dishes that we ordered. Something was missing to make me highly recommended it. I have eaten here twice now, and I must say it was a better place with the entertainment, so I would advice to come here when that is on as it lacked atmosphere on Friday lunchtime.

    Interesting dishes and the duck was spectacular, just not sure it is worth that much 🤷🏽‍♀️ Cocktails we’re very good but barman charged £3 to hand it over the bar. Sea urchin carbonara was very good but had tiny amounts of sea urchin and the dish was actually better without it. Service could have been better especially for 15%

    Amazing ! I have to say, it's very expensive, but the food is delicious and the portions are bigger. There are a lot of food dishes to enjoy so the Chinese food is not the only strong point of this restauran. The decorations and his atmosphere are beautiful and relaxing. I have the fortune of enjoy a wonderful performance while I was eating an excellent ice cream.

    Nice ambience, live jazz is good - not too loud, not too soft. Apart from that nothing extraordinary or outstanding. But petty on behalf of the restaurant to have charge entertainment cover charge of £10 per head, given the high prices. If you can manage to get the attention of the server to take the order then service of food on the table is fast. We struggled to get his attention for the first 33 mins. We even got the menu when we asked for it after being seated for 10-12 mins. Food is okay. Service below average. Still a busy place, make reservations in advance. Personally cannot understand the hype.

    My absolute fave.. Park Chinois is my go to when I think of Chinese food with impeccable service and the ambience is just wow. To a name a few dishes, the wasabi prawns, spring rolls, black cod and king prawn fried rice will leave you memorable of this restaurant. I’ve read many bad reviews recently but considering I have been here plenty of times, I would say refrain from basing your experience on others perspective.

    Organised a birthday dinner for a close friend with the help of Kajal. We Opted for private dining in salon noir. From the beginning Kajal listened to my query and helped me through the entire process, even when I came back to make further edits to the booking. Was very patient and made the arrangement seamless and easy. I was arranging this night for 10+ guest, with 10 close friends starting at the dinner. On arriving the atmosphere was great, the staff were attentive and the food was great. It was a great experience for all of my friends, whether they are used to eating in mayfair or not. I have been to a few mayfair restaurants but this was my first time at park chinois and it is already at the top of my list because of the service and food. I Am surprised this is not a Michelin star (I looked it up after) I have been to Michelin stars that are subpar to park chinois. sim

    The best place in the world! Great food and amazing experience. Everything was absolutely wonderful and the food was incredible. Definitely I’ll come back.

  • 5/5 HANE X. 8 months ago on Google
    This is a review for their underground speakeasy bar. We had a fabulous Friday night there, were lucky to get 2 empty sits at a bar counter. There also booths and tables closer to the stage. There was a spectacular live program including dancing, singing and burlesque acts. The cocktails and service was the best part of our experience. Massimo bartender was super accommodating to my cocktail wishes (both were off the menu) and made the best pisco sour I had in London using aquafaba (which makes it vegan), but he was very willing to go an extra mile and find an eggwhite which is supposed to be in this cocktail. He also was super fun and witty to talk to on top of being extremely handsome. His coworker did a great job fixing me French 75. Highly recommend this place.

  • 5/5 Atanda O. 1 year ago on Google
    I had an amazing dining experience at Park Chinois! The food was simply delicious, from the perfectly cooked duck to the sea bass and truffle rice that were too good to pass up. The duck sauce was particularly amazing, adding a burst of flavor to an already amazing dish. And to top it all off, I had an awesome time with my friends. The atmosphere was perfect for a night out with good food and great company. I would highly recommend Park Chinois to anyone looking for an exceptional dining experience. Can't wait to go back!

  • 4/5 Yasin H. 5 months ago on Google
    Overall a very lovely lunchtime meal. It was quite quiet and this made the atmosphere perfect for celebrating my partner's birthday. The only downside was that the menu was quite limited in terms of main courses. That said, the items we did order were cooked very well and portion sizes were just right.

  • 5/5 Nazim H. 4 months ago on Google
    They delivered the perfect night for my wife’s 30th birthday! Phenomenal experience; from the security outside, the hosts, table staff - everyone was so attentive! Highly recommend for any special occasion, especially for men trying to impress their wife’s for a special occasion/date night! Big shout out to Gazi who was waiting on our table for the great experience, and the white guy with curly hair who I didn’t catch his name, for helping with our order…

  • 5/5 Suthini T. 2 years ago on Google
    The food was nice with authentic taste. The restaurant interior is in late modern Chinese western mix with oriental ornaments in dinning furniture. The toasted duck is very well made with just perfect taste for the main dish. Didn’t expect vegetable dishes are also good. For example, pak choi stir fry, vegetarian dim sum and dumplings. The jazz music was good. Wine list was good.

  • 5/5 Ronald H. 10 months ago on Google
    I recently had the opportunity to enjoy the brunch at Park Chionis and I must say, it was nothing short of remarkable. From the moment I walked in, I was welcomed by a warm, inviting ambiance that set the tone for an unforgettable meal. The selection of dishes available was diverse, catering to all tastes and dietary needs. The standout for me was their grilled black cod and honey roasted BBQ pork The quality of ingredients used was noticeably fresh, a testament to the restaurant's commitment to offering top-tier cuisine. The service staff was professional, courteous, and genuinely enthusiastic about the food they were serving. Their recommendations were spot on and it was evident they took pride in their knowledge of the menu. Park Chinois is truly a hidden gem for anyone seeking a delectable brunch experience. The passion and dedication to culinary excellence is palpable in every bite. It's a must-visit for locals and tourists alike! PS! The cocktails are tasty too, specially the Negroni!

    The food and entertainment was surpassingly fantastic. I really wasn’t expecting the food to be so tasty! The staff are also amazing and super helpful and professional. The sea bass was amazing - as were the duck wraps. We celebrating a birthday here and it was excellently put together

    Amazing experience, atmosphere is on fire. Amazing acts with great service. The food wasn't the best, a few dishes that do have great flavours with some not so good.

  • 5/5 Pitchada J. 2 years ago on Google
    I went there on the night that has live singing which made the exquisite food tasted even better. Spectacular decoration both ground and underground level. The roast duck was very tasty and tender. Loved every dishes especially the black pepper beef and beautiful desserts.

  • 4/5 Parth K. 2 years ago on Google
    Amazing ambience and what a treat it was to hear the live entertainment. Food overall was great, as a vegetarian I would have expected slightly more options, however there were enough for me to go away happy. We were treated extremely well by the staff as they gave us a royal feel. A place you can definitely spend a good few hours with good company. I definitely recommend the drinks as they were top notch!

  • 5/5 Sez 2 years ago on Google
    Park Chinois is my absolute favourite Chinese restaurant in Central London and believe me, I have been to a lot! The interior makes you feel like you are part of a movie set but in the most classy way and the live entertainment just makes this place so so so special!! They also have a great selection of food for vegetarians and I would eat here every day if I could! 10000* from me
