Wong Kei, Chinatown

My visit at Wong Kei was rather on the positive side. I was welcomed properly and seated almost immediately. After that, the service became slow and we waited way too long for our food. The meals were big and delicious and, since I love Chinese, it's one of my favorite restaurants.

Wheelchair accessible ! The staff are typically 'fiendly' the way chinese staff are :) The service was promt. The food compared to some Chinese resaturants I've eaten in average, but after a movie: great. Good value. The duck and pancakes is always a winner. Free tea as much as you want too. No fuss with table cloths so you can make as much mess as you like, and makem and not feel embarrassed. Hot Sake - Yes !

If you want excellent, fresh food at what is quite likely the least expensive Chinese in London then Wong Kei is the place. Great, traditional Chinese food -- cooked to order -- quickly whisked to your table.If you are the posh sort, go elsewhere. You'll pay more for your meal but it's unlikely to be better. You'll likely find yourself at a large round table with disposable table coverings that seats maybe 10. You'll be seated at a table with other diners.The waiters will not make a big fuss about the meal or have an elaborate presentation of your food. In fact you may experience them as rather terse. It's all part of the Wong Kei experience. I think of it has a huge dining area in a traditional Chinese home.Remembering you are there to eat fresh, cooked to order traditional Chinese food rather inexpensively, you too will become a Wong Kei fan.

Eating at Wong Kei Chinese restaurant in London was certainly an experience.

We didn't eat all the food, as we weren't impressed at all with it. But we made sure to finish the wine. At the exact point that we poured the last drop out, they took the empty bottle from the table, and then about 10 seconds later the bill was in front of us. We hadn't even finished our drinks, never mind asked for the bill.

I won't be returning to the Wong Kei Chinese restaurant in London.
