Min Jiang

Best Peking duck I’ve had in London so far! It’s a must order if you do visit! The chef will be carving the roast duck in front of you and pancakes that were served with it is freshly made with a nice selection of sauces. Also you get to choose how you would like the remaining duck meat to be made. We went for the fried rice and that was pretty good too. The dim sums were very tasty too. Excellent service and can dine with an amazing view. Highly recommended.

Really enjoyed this place. Due to the covid restrictions, I have not been able to travel and have been missing China greatly. This place took me back there - from the food to the interiors - it all felt intentional and authentic. The view is mesmerising at night, especially in winter when the Winter Wonderland is on. Dim sum was superb and I truly enjoyed it. It was well balanced and light. We also ordered half duck - it is sliced in front of you and makes up three dishes: duck skin with sugar, duck fillet with translucent wheat pancakes and a third of your option - we went for a soup. Duck was a bit fatty for me but I know it is the traditional way. The pancakes worked really well with the fillets and the fillings. Soup was a lovely closure to the dinner - full flavour and hearty.

Mixed feelings. The service is good and the view is lovely. We had the roasted duck and it’s lovely. Their own version with garlic sauce is amazing. But I would really appreciate if you had some more of the ”toppings”. What they are missing is that the second serving was not good. We had the one with noodles. And it was simply boring. The restaurant is in need of renovation and the toilets was not clean and not to my satisfaction.

We went to Min Jiang specially for their Peking duck. I got to admit that their first course of duck skin and meat wrapped with their own wrap was lovely. It even came with their own homeMade min Jiang specialty sauce. I wasn’t too impressed by their second course of duck meat with iceberg lettuce. It felt as if the second course was more of an appetizer and in all my experience of having Peking duck, I raise questions about the size and width of their second course that really dropped my experience from a good to a borderline hmmm. I’ve attached photos for those around to judge as I had better San choy bao as a second course else where before. If the restaurant can better their second course, this place for Peking duck.. I would give a better rating. Further comments on my IG - HungryFatBarrel

This remain my most favourite Chinese restaurant in London. Not only because of the food and the view being on the top floor of the Royal Garden Hotel overlooking the Kensington Gardens and Kensington Palace. The service is always solid and good. Good selection and extensive list of wine menu. Their signature dish is Peking Duck. You should order it in advance to avoid disappointment. The restaurant is very popular, so do book a couple of months in advance if you want a table before 9pm. Food 9/10, service 9/10, ambience 9/10, value for money 9/10.

Chinese restaurant with superb views over Kensington Gardens. The charcoal roast duck is the best. It's their signature dish, and need to pre-order. The soft shell crab was just okay - good size portion, but a bit soggy! Other dishes were fine, but nothing special. Not cheap, but something different for a special occasion (a birthday in our case🙂).
