Beijing Dumpling 23 Lisle Street, London WC2H 7BA

"For London Chinatown standards it's on par with everyone else. Decent flavours, smaller portions than I expected, good service, tight seating. But good restaurant choice for tourists of Chinatown. Also an open kitchen window viewing of the dumplings in the making. Dumpling skins could be thinner and with more broth inside. The spicy beef could use more numbing spices. Overall good."

"Beijing dumplings were excellent and we took pork, pork & crab and a prawn dumpling (3x8)… it was a lot but so tasty! They have lots of other items on the menu, but the dumplings are great (you can see them making them in the window when you stand in line) and the best of the dumplings were the prawn ones, but they were all excellent. I can warmly recommend the dumplings here!"

"Definitely recommend booking a table in advance, especially for big groups as I saw people standing outside the restaurant for a good 15+ minutes. Food came out really fast. There was no order for the meal (starter, mains...) it all came out as soon as it was ready. I'd say prices were relatively cheap especially in Soho/Chinatown. Food tasted great, especially for the cheap price but not mind-blowing in the taste department. Service was average at best, not much attention was given. I will definitely be back to try the other food that interested me."

"Delicious dumpling! We were lucky there was no queue and table available immediately. I am not so convinced about the soup with dumplings - the soup itself was tasteless but maybe this is meant to be this way as the dumpling is the star of the show! Would recommend either way. I will be back to try other things on the menu. On pictures there is dim sum platter, quarter duck, vermicelli singpaore noodles and spicy chicken dumplings in soup ☺️"
