    Some of the best food I had during my time in London. They stay true to their roots in real Sichuan style food. The flavors were exquisite, the spice level was exactly what I needed from the peppercorns, it wasn’t too oily, it was perfectly cooked. Good service and the food didn’t take too long to come out after ordering. This is a no frills, not too fancy type spot but I will definitely be back.

    Very genuine Sichuan food, with generous portions and decent prices. You can get a good selection of spicy and non-spicy food here. Spicy chicken pot, water boiled beef, green beans are super recommend!

    The Emei group is really awesome! ! Right in Chinatown! It was delicious the last time I ate it, and it was so delicious today that I must share it! ! And they were just a few random dishes without any reference to what anyone would recommend. Every dish was super delicious! ! This store is really up to par! ! 🥘Golden round hoof, I ordered it when I saw it was a new dish! The tender pig's trotters melt in your mouth, and the sauce is neither salty nor bland. Every bite has the same texture as eating tofu and rice cakes. It's a bit too fragrant, and one hoof has more than a dozen complete pieces. It's really so much. Can't eat it! 🥘Secret beef and radish stew is also a new dish. It’s super delicious just by looking at the picture. Hurry and arrange it! There are potatoes, green peppers and carrots in it. The radish is harvested very well and the soup is very delicious! The spiciness level is two chili peppers. Even though the chili peppers are extremely spicy, they are really refreshing! The sauce is also great when paired with rice, so you can enjoy three bowls of it! 🥘Crispy chicken with secret sauce, this is a very fresh chicken! The chicken is diced and then wrapped in a layer of sweet sauce and deep-fried. Every piece is crystal clear. It looks like spinach and walnut kernels, but the chicken inside is soft, glutinous and juicy! The secret sauce outside is so sweet and salty, I really like it! 🥘Preserved egg and spinach soup, light and light, but unique! In addition to fresh spinach, there are also preserved eggs and green onions. The soup is very sweet. After eating spicy beef brisket and devouring pig's feet, having another bite of spinach soup is so happy! Overall, their food is really, really delicious! ! The boss said that they have been open for 13 years. After all, they have a lot of regular customers (I am already ready for the next thing. I nodded hard! There were many foreigners in the store when we ate~ It’s really good! I hope they will The better you make it, everyone, hurry up! Let’s go eat hot pot and maocai next!

    It tastes great, and at first glance, it makes people feel very appetizing, and the weight is large, and the taste of the dishes is also very good. The fish is also very fresh. It tastes salty and moderate, and the heat is just right. The service is fast. Even the dining environment is very clean and the price is often affordable. It is suggested that two or three people can order a plate of roast fish

    Braised pigs’ trotters are amazing! Steamed pork ribs with rice paste in a bamboo tube are also great! “Lantern Shadow” Beef (p4) is a cold starter, and really spicy. Staffs are friendly.

    We went to Ermei on the first day of Chinese New Year. The staffs were accommodating, and despite it being a busy day, most of them had a smile on their face. We had Mapo Tofu, water-boiled pork slices and long green beans. Every dish was awesome and we finished everything. The water-boiled pork slices had a saucy, thick soup base, and while I'd normally prefer a thinner soup, it was still delicious. Nothing beats red and fiery dishes on the first day of CNY! P.s. they give out free drinks to customers who give reviews on social media platforms. While I could not be bothered to do such a thing, I would be sceptical if the majority of reviews are genuine.

    A nice place to come for family gathering, really authentic! Relatively spicy, if you cant eat spice remember to ask for less spice. You could get soya if you make a review too! Spicy pork intestine and golden egg yolk tofu was lovely. Will come back soon :)

    The food portion is huge, the sweet and sour fish is superb … we also had the shredded potato which is fabulous as well as pork ribs steamed in bamboo. Service was prompt and the atmosphere was good too.

    Food is amazing. One of the best spicy Chinese restaurant in London. Service is great and staff are so friendly. Strongly recommend. The spicy fish is my favourite dish. Very authentic and suitable for large group of people.

    The BEST Chinese restaurant ever! Sorry was too excited so we ended up munching before snapping photos. You all should come for a visit! It is definitely a place for you to have your most scrumptious meals and feel satisfied after:)

    Food was amazing, every dish was nice. One of the best sichuan/Chinese cuisines I've had in all of Europe/UK. The Spicy chicken (lazi ji) is especially good. Service is exceptional as well and I felt very welcomed. Come here if you like to try spicy Chinese food. source: I'm chinese

    It is really difficult to find a Chinese restaurant around China town with good hygiene rating. This one has 5 stars hygiene rating. We enjoyed the food here very much. Most importantly, it tastes fresh and clean, which are not like the food in other Chinese restaurants. Often the food and source were pre-made and kept for many days or weeks. Er Mei is different! We will come back and try some other dishes!

    Best Sichuan food I’ve had in London. The price was fair considering the size of the serving. Four of us had 4 dishes and still had some leftovers (we’ve tried but all of us we’re completely full). Definitely would come again.

    It has a wide range of colors, flavors and dishes. The bamboo chops taste good. Roast fish is the signature dish here, and milk tea is a kind of sweet tea made by his family. The service attitude is really very good in Chinese restaurants in Chinatown.

  • 5/5 Hao G. 2 years ago on Google
    The environment of this restaurant is very good, very clean and tidy. The food is not only beautiful in appearance, but also delicious in color and taste. The method retains the original taste of the ingredients, which is fresh and refreshing. Moreover, there are many choices of dishes. Since there are only two of us, we chose the most classic roast fish and milk tea, which tastes great

    This place is very nice. The food is spicy, but Sichuan style, so it doesn't burn your mouth like Thai spice. We ordered the stir fried beef, the fish and the mouth watering chicken. All three were tasty. I also recommend ordering a wanglaoji drink if you are not used to spice, as it's very soothing. We would certainly come again.
