Feedback
Nestled near major hotels and the ExCel exhibition centre, this restaurant presents a mixed bag of experiences. While some patrons commend the friendly service and highlight the appealing dim sum and affordable prices, others lament poor food quality, uncleanliness, and subpar dining environments. The atmosphere is often described as inviting, but consistency in food preparation remains a concern. Despite atmospheric charm and some skilled staff members, guests have reported disappointing meals that detract from their overall experience. For those in the area, it may serve as a convenient option, yet many would suggest exploring nearby alternatives for a more satisfying dining experience.
It is a real shame that this restaurant is located near the hotels and ExCel, with so much construction being done by McLarens. I visited a couple of days in a row because my choices were limited after presenting at ExCel. The positive was that they served Olde Mout Cider on draft, but the negatives were that it felt like a Wetherspoons/Yates, the food quality was poor, the interior was sticky, the staff was not great, and overall I would rate it a 3 out of 5. Despite staying at Moxys for a few nights and visiting this place, I would not choose to go back, especially since there are other options just a few minutes away on the DLR. Moxys may not be great, but it is probably better overall because of its nicer environment.
Great location with relatively quick service during lunchtime. The staff are friendly, and the prices are reasonable. I had an excellent lunch break here.
Pretty good Chinese restaurant. It would be a good place to go if you're at an event at Excel or staying in one of the nearby hotels. Just follow signs to the passport office and you'll find it (and possibly not find the passport office, which appears to be tucked away behind it).
