Royal China Baker Street – London Reviews and Things To Do

The second restaurant located on Baker Street is the largest restaurant within the Royal China Group, seating 150 guests… This restaurant offers a traditional Hong Kong Chinese menu, with delicious favourites such as Aromatic Crispy Duck served with pancakes, spring onion and cucumber.

That’s when you come close to what Royal China serve.

With its open-plan dining room and signature Chinese décor, the Royal China on Baker Street restaurant offers a relaxed and vibrant space, perfect for larger families and groups of friends dining together.

I’m not usually one for settling for the set menu but the House Dinner menu that was on offer at Royal China was more than satisfactory.

Expect rich flavourful dishes, accommodating service and a pleasant atmosphere at Royal China.

Seeking the Best Dim Sum in London - Royal China Baker Street

On Baker Street, there are two Royal China restaurants including the Royal China Club, the premier restaurant of the group and one of my favourite dim sum places in London (reviewed here).

Royal China has a wine list, but Chinese tea is a far more appropriate accompaniment to a dim sum lunch in my opinion.

Any good dim sum place should serve up steamed turnip cake (£3.50), and Royal China’s version was a fine one – it had clean flavours and a smooth texture, with lovely crispy fried edges.

Likes: the pork and radish dumplings, prawn and chive dumpling and crab meat dumpling soup are very good, but the deep fried garlic prawn beancurd skin rolls were exceptional.

Verdict: The Royal China Baker Street is a good place to enjoy freshly made dim sum in Marylebone, as well as being a more affordable option than the swanky Royal China Club further up the road.

Royal China: An authentic taste of China in London – Lines of Escape

On the subject of drinks, Royal China has an impressive wine menu and, rather predictably from my side, we chose a South African chenin blanc.

Royal China’s House Dinner begins with the Chef’s Imperial House Hors d’Oeuvres, and some of the components may look a bit familiar to those already acquainted with Chinese cuisine.

Although the main usually also includes prawns in a red chilli sauce, we substituted this with something that caught our eye on the first perusal of our menus: honey-glazed roast pork.

The House Dinner set menu will definitely leave even the heartiest of eaters full, so Royal China has planned their dessert very well: a fresh fruit platter.

Royal China is a restaurant that trains its spotlight on traditional Chinese ingredients and cooking methods, yet executes dishes that look beautiful as well.

Royal China Baker Street restaurant review 2012 August London ...

Sister to The Royal China in Queensway, the Baker Street branch is a touch larger, seating 200 at a time, yet has the identical black and gold lacquer decoration.

This branch is just down the road from Royal China Club, at 44 Baker Street, a somewhat posher take on the same food but with higher prices.

Gai lan, though, was a notch lower in standard than at the Queensway branch, the broccoli a little undercooked and with less garlic flavuor, though still very good (14/20).

One area where Baker Street outshines Queensway is in the service, which was efficient and quite friendly.

I felt that, overall, the Queensway branch had a slight edge on the food, the Baker Street one by contrast won on the service.

RESTAURANT REVIEW: ROYAL CHINA BAKER STREET -THE ...

If you’re looking for quality Cantonese food without paying the Michelin star prices, word on the grapevine is the Royal China group is your best bet in London, counting critics like Jay Raynor and TV chef Gordon Ramsay as fans.

Idea The Royal China Group consists of six of London’s most authentic and best-loved Chinese restaurants, including the luxurious and critically-acclaimed Royal China Club.

Each restaurant has a dedicated Dim Sum Chef, as well as a Head Chef and the group are most well know for being the place to go for creative, quality Dim Sum in London.

The extensive al la carte evening menu is full of recognisable classics like sweet and sour dishes, crispy duck or spring rolls, while also offering some more obscure dishes to tantalise such as hotpot of Stewed Egg Plant with Minced Prawn in a Spicy Sauce and Jellyfish with Cucumber if you’re feeling brave.

Everything is perfectly crisp, sweet, savoury and spicy in exactly the right places and its a lesson in how really good Chinese food should taste.

Royal China Baker Street, review: A must-do for dumpling debonaires

If you’re one for indulging your dim sum addiction with a refined touch once in a while, then Royal China does dumplings with dedication, serving up a of Cantonese fare that is the most popular form of Chinese cooking in the UK.

From decadently deep fried to crystal clear and delicate, Royal China’s dim sum menu is a cornucopia of treats, dutifully wrapped in all shapes and sizes.

Wherever you are in London, there’s a good chance you’re not far from a Royal China with their six branches covering all compass points, with their flagship restaurants based in Baker Street (note that there are two, Royal China Club and Royal China Baker Street), but with locations as disparate as Fulham and Canary Wharf.

If you’re dead set on dim sum, then remember that Royal China only serve their dumpling menu at lunch, as is traditional – asking for a dim sum in the evening is a bit like requesting a ham sandwich for dinner.

Be prepared to get there before you’re actually hungry and wait – Royal China’s dumplings attracted quite a crowd.
