Perfect place for fresh and authentic dim sum. Staff and friendly and although rushed since they are so busy, it’s reasonable.I would recommend the Taro and black truffle swan and the har gao which is top notch.

Fantastic place to experience the authentic taste of China in London. Professional staff will take you on a journey to posh interpretation of the oriental cuisine. Even those who have never tried Chinese cuisine before will have a great experience with their dim sum menu. Royal China Club offers a selection of the best Chinese dishes, their simple menu doesn’t confuse the reader like many Chinese restaurants do with hundreds of unknown dishes listed on a small, laminated piece of paper. Expensive place, but you pay for the quality: excellent selection of wines, and fresh seafood and vegetables.I highly recommend this place and I am not surprised that the Royal China Club is listed on the Michelin Guide. They deserve six stars, but Google allows me to give max five.

I went here with my Mum as I didn’t want to venture into Chinatown and my mum didn’t want to try Phoenix restaurant which I highly recommend. Anyway, we went there and as soon as we went in, we felt a bit under dressed as we didn’t research into this restaurant. We were treated with great care by the waitress but my Mum who is a bit old fashioned was very loud about how expensive the dishes were, which was slightly embarrassing. Anyway, mum ordered some won ton noodles and this male waiter, who was quietly eavesdropping went up to us and said in a slightly condescending voice, it’s £12.50 as if to indicate we couldn’t afford it. Anyway, the waitresses were very friendly and kind. I found some of the waiters a bit snobby. Another waiter told us, you need to use the sanitiser on the table, you need to put the mask away in the envelope, as if we were stupid. Seriously it’s strange how judgemental some waiters can be. However, the food was worth the price as I can honestly say it felt like Michelin star restaurant. Next time, I’ll prob return to Phoenix restaurant as it’s better value and has nice setting. This place is good, but it feels like every waiter or waitress is listening to your comments and your private conversations as they appear from nowhere. Great service from waitresses though!

If you value quality and service, this place delivers in abundance. The vegan selection is the best Ive ever seen in a Chinese restaurant. And they were all delicious.

It was my 2nd time at Royal China Club. The food was really good with personalised service and quality, Ive enjoyed all the dishes Ive tried.

Tasty and premium Chinese restaurant with homemade dim sum, great service and attentive staff but its overpriced in my opinion.

I love this place! We usually go down to royal china, but the staff here is much more friendly and the food is amazingly tasty. There are some dim sums you actually can’t find anywhere else. It’s not innovative fusion like yauatcha - which btw is so over hyped. This is authentic yet special great Cantonese dim sum! I love cheung fun and steamed dumplings as well as the honey duck pastry. You just can’t find a bad dish here.

Treated myself to this place for dim dum lunch.Great presentation.They have an extensive list of Chinese teas.

Best dim sum in London! Amazing service and delicious food

I go to Royal China Club quite a bit and always enjoyed it but had a very unpleasant experience on my last visit. We had made a reservation a week prior but when we got to the restaurant they couldn’t find it on their system. We were shoved to one side and told to wait while they seated other guests. Eventually when they got back to us they kept saying we hadn’t made a reservation and to prove it. They insisted on scrolling through our phone log to check we had actually called them. When I said that wasn’t ok for them to do that, they told me to watch my tone. We were seated eventually with no apology and a grey cloud over the whole experience

I’ve only been to a few dim sum places in Chinatown, but this one is by far the best. It is a bit pricier and the range of dim sum dishes is smaller, but everything was done very well. It was a nice environment with attentive staff. Will definitely be coming back here.

I absolutely love Royal China Club. Weve been to RCC a few times for dim sum (which we eat very often) and it never disappoints. The food is fresh and very high quality. The service is very good. It is definitely worth the price. I highly recommend it.

Authentic dim sum good enough for Royalty! Highly recommended. I much prefer this place to other westernized version of Dim sum in other London venues. The difference is huge to someone who grew up having dim sum every Sunday in Hong Kong! Friendly and efficient service. All staff wear face covering. Social distancing guidelines strictly followed.

Good quality dim sum using high quality ingredients. Special touches on the presentation of the dumplings. Really enjoyed the glutinous rice, chicken feet and custard buns !!Service team was super attentive. They were always checking for tea pot top ups and available for any assistance.Definitely be back for more ;-)

Lovely restaurant. Traditional Chinese dishes and good service. Roomy and big tables

Royal China is a very nice Chinese restaurant. Service is very good and very attentive. The dim sum are very good. Highly recommend the barbecue roast pork. They have several branches around London. There is one in Queensway and this one is on Baker Street.

One of the most exquisite Chinese restaurants in London, part of the Royal China Group, which also owns Golden Dragon & Four Seasons Roast Duck in Chinatown. If you fancy high quality Chinese food in a fancier setting, this is authentic and you will be able to find most of the dishes you crave and miss from Asia. They recently launched a high tea dimsum set too, if you fancy late lunch or early din and want to treat yourself or some guests.

Loved it. Great ambience. Great food.

Best steamboat dinner ever, in London.Service from wait-staff is prompt & cheery and best of all, quality of food is par-excellent.Will come back again for sure.

Good food but it can be pricey.

Excellent meal in a lovely restaurant... customer service great too!

Excellent service and food. Came in forYum cha and was stunningly surprised at the quality. Food is delicately prepared and very well presented. Equally the food taste amazingly.Highly recommend this yum cha place, make sure you book before you come. It’s a bit more expensive that Royal China, but for the service, food it’s well well worth it. Will be coming back!

Favourite dimsum place in England! Always fresh, perfect authentic shanghai dumplings and great selection of grilled dishes! Bit on the pricey side but worth it!

Great dim sum and attentive service. A bit pricey, but beats most dim sum restaurants.

This place is excellent for dim sum. It is completely packed so better reserved in advance especially on week end.

Bottom line: excellent dim sum, great foodRoyal China is an experience everyone who comes to London has to try at least once. Their food is seasoned perfectly and gently, the flavor combinations are superb and the ingredients are so fresh and unconventional that youre always surprised by the bold yet subtle flavors.

One of the better Chinese restaurants in London. Portions are large and good overall. Great service and cozy atmosphere. The Peking duck is quite good too.

Very expensive for what it is, fairly oily food.. Though very tasty. £60+ for 2? You decide...

Love the dishes so much. Though it’s pricy than other restaurants, it worthy it to pay for authentic food and service!

Good Chinese good with some of the dishes not available elsewhere. Good private room and on the whole tends to be helpful. Pricey though and we had to leave after 1hr 15 mins for lunch!

A bit more expensive than the other Royal China restaurants but the dim sum was well presented and tasty. Recommend booking or otherwise there’s a lot of queuing!

Good food, but nothing special and bad service.

Attentive service and very tasty dim sums - recommended...

Perfect authentic Chinese food. Daytime dim sum menu is so delicious. But Lobster is out of this world.

Great dim sum and great service!

Our best friend invited us to celebrate Chinese New Year. It was a Royal Banquet

Great decor which gives a sense of a 5 star hotel and elegance. Lots on the menu to choose from, what you wouldn’t normally get in a regular Chinese which I liked. The food was really good and natural tasting using food ingredients but could get better for the price elsewhere. Food could have been served hotter. The presentation of the food was fab; the shredded chicken in the ‘nest’ etc. However.... one of the staff was not polite and snooty upon us asking questions about the food and recommendations, however the younger staff member was very lovely.

Always back to this chain and 1st time trying out the Club on recommendation by a friend. Ordered their signature dim sum dishes and all was a devin rollercoaster experience. Mushroom bun with truffle (would be nicer to share this as flavour can be intens on 2,5 bun), juicy shanghai crab pork dumpling, crab dumpling in broth and fish maw, seafood cheung fan (rice transculant pancake). The dumpling dough is very refined and thin which shows that its made by an excellent dimsum chef. The taste of ingredients are full of flavour which bring you to an absolute divine Cantonese food journey. Some cons, I noted MSG in some dimsum dishes

Tremendous dim sum. Green beans are also to die for!

Best dim sum I had in London so far (the Shanghai ones). Only downside, it’s expensive!!

Excellent Chinese dumplings and mango mochis! Not cheap, but high quality, so very fair.

Everything was delicious, but have to say there could be more choices for dessert...

Very yummy dimsum and fantastic food

My wife invited me to a celebration birthday lunch, her favourite nearby Chinese restaurant was closed.We made a mistake entering this restaurant without pausing at the front door to study the menu.Prices - We would have seen the vastly overpriced (at least 30%, maybe 40%) lunch menu and moved on, looking for a better value restaurant.Decor and toilets - Very goodStaff - WelcomingFood -1. For the price charged, the dim sum courses should have been more pleasing to the eye2. At least one more item in each basket3. The main courses should have been better cooked and presented4. She had to change the vegetables5. And thought the prawns were over cooked and tough.Drink - To charge £5.20 at lunch time for a 330 bottle of beer is ridiculous.AW

A mixed experience.Food - out of this worldPrice - not too badService - this is where I was let down. Slow response to requests for drinks, hard to get someones attention to order or pay. Sharp service from the staff in general.Could be 5* only just a 4*

Great food, great atmosphere, very professional staff, and they have a coffee table book version of their menu, which is very helpful.

Good dishes and service

Great Chinese cuisine

Good starters like turnip cake, spring rolls and chicken skewers 🍢. The eel main dish is fantastic here in what is one of the best dim sum 🥟 and fresh Chinese style seafood 🦞 restaurants in London and the UK. Its nice that they can close off a booth for your privacy if the restaurant isnt busy.

Totally disappointed! The worst ever Chinese food in London. Please close the restaurant. Stop waisting food. Please dismiss the Paraguayan chef!

Really good dim sum

The dim sums were OK but the bad after taste comes from the way they gouge money from you: they charged £18 for a pot of chinese tea for 4 people; a single dumpling in soup was £13?! (wasnt even huge) and ordinary fried rice with a few prawns cost $16. And they kept reminding us they needed the table back by 2pm. At 1.45pm on a Sunday there weer plenty of empty tables. Is it any wonder that they closed their other restaurant next door? And avoid their desserts unless you like a thin layer of mango mousse sandwiched between a very springy fluorescent green gelatin on top and what tasted like blancmange below.

Had a dinner for 6 adults the other day and ordered Canadian crab, whole peking duck and vegetables and mushrooms, as well as dessert. Very disappointing food especially the crab that looked frozen, and not 3.5 pounds when it came out with very little meat. All this cost 450 pounds total for the meal and felt obliged to pay given my family was there, but expected a lot better given we have been to Royal China many times, as well as across the road and at Pearl Liang. RCC needs to really improve its game!

Very good food, efficient service, at the top end price wise. One of the better value Chinese in Marylebone.

100% recommend duck thats very oil but very tasty!

Very good, traditional Chinese food.

Great food great Dim Sum, very nice staff

Excellent food and service

My favourite was the Chinese broccoli signature dish. This place is challenging if you dont eat meat (I eat fish), but I had pork by mistake in their prawn wanton dumpling soup. Service is messy.

Their dim sum were great !

Nice place, jasmine tea was wonderful I think were hooked now! Nice varied selection of dumplings.

Visited as a hermit senior manager at work wanted to eat some Chinese food close to his home in MarleyboneDecent if it’s convenient, wouldn’t go out of my way

Absolutely belly-warming good food

Excellent Chinese

Best Cantonese and Dim Sum in town

Superb food ! One of the best Chinese restaurants in London.

Came here for Dim Sum on a Sunday at 12:30pm - not too packed and we got a table for two almost immediately.Decor is upscale and worthy of the area. If youre a little squeamish, they have live lobster and crab tanks featuring prominently in the middle of the restaurant. Poor guys!Food was tasty enough but we were let down by the service - far too keen to hurry us for the price we paid.

Best dim sum in London. Always freshly cooked and fab flavours. Not the cheapest but worth the price. We frequently check out other places but always come back to this one. By the way, there are two Royal Chinas on Baker Street. This is the second one further up heading towards Marylebone Road and a bit quieter than the larger one which is going down towards Oxford Street.

Great Dim Sum and tea, service was quick and friendly, Im sure Ill be back. Would recommend you book as was very busy Sunday lunchtime.

Good food though portions quite small some times

Great service, went with the Directors (7) in total and the restaurant staff adhered to every table need. Prompt, great atmosphere, food is fresh. Had Lobster and went with the seafood option and genuinely will be returning on another great evening.

Delicious dim sum at very reasonable prices.

More expensive than its sister Royal China across the road, but if you prefer a smarter and more professional dining setting, say for a business meeting, then this is for you. Most dishes are probably more carefully prepared and a little more expensive ingredients are used, hence the higher price tags. Great genuine Cantonese dishes!

We ordered 8 different steamed dim sum, fried veg and fried Vietnamese spring rolls. All preparations were excuisit.Service was immaculate. Ms. Anna, from Wuhan China was very good hostThis place is our favorite whenever we visit London.Expensive but, highly recommended.

Nice service, nice people, nice food. Their own dimsum is the best in town. Of course youve had roast duck a thousand times but this is different, it is crispy skin, it is beautifully presented. My own favourite dish is crab and sweetcorn soup. As you see it is nothing unusual, but it is unusually delicious. Crispy pork belly. Singapore noodles, usual fare, just 10x better than anywhere else. It can get a bit domestic,.. Babies and children, but Im told thats a good sign. In my humble opinion the best Chinese in the UK.

A top-notch Chinese restaurant which offers food at a superior level compared to what you would ordinarily find. The dim sum is especially tasty, the scallops in particular. The beef was so tender its literally melts in the mouth. Pricey for good reason.

Great experience enjoyed every morsel of dim sum

The best dim sum Ive tried in London so far. Also, they pack everything very well for takeaway, with plenty of souses.

Very good quality but expensive. Once in a while...why not?

Superb. Every course delicious. Some of the best crispy crispy duck Ive eaten. Service was also very good and accommodating. One thing though... They do not have high chairs. Take a travel one if you need to. Changing facilities on site.

Crazy busy but delicious food!

If you like being treated like a second class citizens then this is the restaurant for you. These are the most vile, racist and unprofessional establishment Ive ever been to.I went there with a couple of friends who were (people of colour) for her birthday. The moment we arrived we were immediately corned. We waited 10 minutes before we could be seated. Once we were seated and tried to make an order we were told we had wait for the manager which I didnt understand, Ive never been to a restaurant were Ive had to be seen by the manager before placing an order. Once the manager arrived she informed us that we had to make payments before our food would arrive. This was a very unusual method, so I asked the group of people who were sitting beside us and asked them if they had to make payments before dining which they replied no they pay after dinning. So I confronted the manager who ironically didnt have an answer and started to pretend like she couldnt understand English. The manager then said its because its a group dinner which made no sense because the group sitting beside had not been asked the same request. Now Ive heard of restaurants asking for a credit card to hold and this usually mandatory for all customers not for a specific group of people. Because it was my friends birthday she didnt want to book another venue so I had no choice. So me and my friends refused to pay service charge, were the manager then said everyone else pays which was even more ironic, considering the fact we were not being treated like everyone else we ended up not paying and I refused to pay service charge because I refuse to pay for service that is not met. Every time we ordered a drink we were told to make payments first, it was absolutely disgusting how we were being treated. So after my meal one of my friends approached on of the waiters, to where she confronted him about the ill treatment. The waiter replied it usually you people who dont like to pay obvious statement meaning black people. Whether that was a regular recurrence at their restaurant, that is still no excuse to treat and judge people based on colour. At that moment I really wished my friend had recorded that conversation but she wasnt with her phone. The only reason why I stayed was because it was my friends birthday and she just wanted to celebrate and she had already made reservations and it was too late to make last minute arrangement. If not, I would have picked up and left. I refuse as black woman to still be judged based on the colour of my skin. Being treated differently and publicly humiliated. This restaurant is trash and their food isnt even that great. If you want to support racists then go head!!

Favourite place to have dim sum in London, feels like Hong Kong! Great service and solid food. The only let down were the egg tarts - give those a miss.

Quality dim sum

Excellent dinner as usual with an even higher end than the other Royal China.You can find fancy dishes along with regular ones but each of them diligently mastered.There also are several specials depending of the season to surprise you all year long.

The food was tasty so certainly cannot complain about that, but the prices are absolutely outrageous and certainly not worth what we paid. The ambience is non existent and for the money you are paying you would expect much much better service, you are not made to feel welcomed in my opinion. I think its fascinating that you can go to somewhere like the delaunay where you are waited on hand and foot, in much more impressive surrounding and just much more of an experience for around the same price point. I dont understand what warrants the price here? But again..the food was tasty and I can imagine if flavour is all you care about this place would be great.

Newly refurbished. Menu has half the choices at twice the price. 4 bowls of soup served at intervals of 5 minutes. One had no taste One was cold. 1 hour later no main courses. Don’t wast your time or money.Then the bill arrived. They overcharged and then blamed it on a computer error. The price on the menu was far less than that on the computer. Be very careful

The quality, service and atmosphere you will get there completely is completely the same as the bill you will pay at the end of your visit - High. But its worth it once in a while.

If you know your Chinese food you know this is one of the best restaurants in London.. Dim Sum here is handmade & gourmet quality. Other dishes are authentic and of high quality. This isnt your average Chinatown place.. this is top notch food deserving of a Michelin star! If you love Chinese food (as I do cos Im Asian) then dont miss out!!

This place has changed. The ambience was that of a canteen because they have crammed so many tables into the available space. It makes it noisy and difficult to hold a conversation. The food was nice but not exceptional and the portions were small. The service was good. I can see how it might still be a good place for dim sum but I wouldnt go back for an evening meal.

Really enjoyed the dim sum menu here, went on a Sunday at midday. It had a small queue, when I left at 2pm there was quite a big queue. Food is fresh and well presented. Service is attentive. Paid approx 20 pounds per person including dessert, no drinks except tea.

Despite a good service, the food wasn’t good and excessive prices

This is one of the best Chinese restaurants in London. Its a classic olden goldie, but has modern decor. We normally come here for special occasions, we normally find the staff friendly, but most of all, this place is all about the food.If your a meat eater, then the duck is something special and the golden chicken (roasted) is equally good.

MSG is used to enhance the flavor of all their dishes. The crispy noodles lacked flavor as did their crispy shredded beef. Best dish we had was the steamed fish. Look elsewhere for good, authentic Chinese food.

Simple good old fashioned dim sum. Nicely decorated but not over the top. Casual style dining, good service though when it is busy, it gets a bit poor. Our regular dim sum haunt.

Dim sum used to be very good. I always introduce it to my westerner friends as the best dim sum in London. But the recent experience was rather disappointing. Those steam dumpling like dishes we ordered all had thicker skins than before. I wonder if theyve changed the chefs. Hopefully that was just a one off over-steam problem.

Good Food..Good Service..A bit Pricey

The ‘club’ in the name makes RCC sound like a members-only section of the Royal China Group, which isn’t far from the truth. This, the premier link in the chain, has an air of quiet elegance found in five-star hotels, right down to the faint tinkling of a piano. The kitchen turns out consummate Cantonese cooking, using prized ingredients (abalone, lobster, veal) at every opportunity. Even simple noodle dishes are elevated to premium status. Wherever possible, the polished, softly spoken staff employ silver-service methods, making everyone feel like a visiting dignitary.

Quickly had dinner here. The food was pretty good, but not the cheapest place. Had a portion of the duck with some egg rice and a beer, which together came down to about £22.The staff however comes across as very uninterested. After ordering the food came pretty quick.Also a minor point of critique is that they dont have WiFi.

The food was very good however the wait staff were not very attentive. I have taken into consideration the fact that they were busy but the lack of attentiveness took what would have been a 5 star review to a 4 star. Once again the food was lovely highly recommend it.
