Far East Restaurant

tasty food, good service, and very reasonable prices for Chinatown/London. was asked if we had allergies, which I have never seen in a Chinese restaurant before; I find it surprising but I guess it's a good thing. didn't look at reviews before going, but not surprised to see a huge mix of 5* and 1* reviews; a lot of good Chinese restaurants get petty and unjust 1* reviews for non western style service

We really really enjoyed the Chinese breakfast here! We are super surprised about the google rating of this restaurant. We will definitely come back again. The breakfast is so authentic and is very rare to get Chinese breakfast in the UK. The restaurant was packed with Asians in the morning, immediately approves the food quality of this restaurant! Highly recommend!

I’m surprised they only have 3.2 star. The food was good but what impressed me was their services. My friend and I arrived at lunch time which was busy. We had to wait a little bit but as soon as a table was available the lady wiped it down quickly for us. Food and tea arrived quickly. Would be better if the rice arrived with the main dish but it didn’t bother us much. At the end while I was waiting for my friend, the lady at the counter brought me some mint sweet and that was a nice touch. In all I really enjoyed our experience so thank you.

I cannot fathom why some of the reviews are as bad as they are. We had the most amazing breakfast experience here! We had a prawn wonton soup; hands down the most delicate and delicious wonton soup I have ever eaten. Also a delicious savoury tofu dish & deep fried dough stick. The warm soy milk was fresh & went perfectly with the rest of the meal. The staff are super friendly and kind. Also don't forget it's cash only!

Not sure why the other reviews are so terrible; I see this place is super hardworking they are open from 9am-3am (til 5am on some days). I just came out to get away from the rain a bit during lunchtime, ordered Shrimp-JiuCai Wonton and Soy Milk. No sugar in it so you add as much as you need. The waitresses are just polite enough to ask you what you need, and the food comes very fast (as expected of a real Chinese restaurant). The wonton was very delicious. It has more ingredients than the traditional wonton in Hong Kong sometimes (which is a bonus, absolutely). The skin of the wonton was also very soft and you can tell by the details the skin‘s texture has added some more fibre of some sort, making it softer. For quick eats, really good!! Recommended.

I cannot agree with Jason's review. I had a quarter crispy duck with pancakes and it was absolutely delicious. I enjoyed drinking a whole pot of Chinese tea with it. I chose this unassuming little place because it was friendly and calm. There was crowds and chaos outside at 17.30 on a Saturday evening. I didn't need to wait and they showed me to a table for 4 people even though I was eating alone. Inside the staff were so lovely and friendly. I would definitely go back.

Had a very different experience from a lot of the reviews. This was one of the few places open before noon. Love the Chinese breakfast menu options which are rare in Chinatown. The soup and dry noodles we ordered were delicious and all 3 staff members we interacted with were friendly. Prices are on par with central London prices. Would definitely go back.

Amazing Chinese Dessert & food. I went with my friends to this little restaurant. Has been established for more than 18years. The food & desserts were still great standard. We were too hungry. And has forgotten to take more food photo. Will add in more photo on my next trip back to this restaurant. Thanks to the great service⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐👏👍❤
