Dragon Inn Club is the most secret hideaway venue featuring ancient dark wood bamboo, authentic ornaments and decor recreating the voyage of the Silk Road.
The Robata Grill on the ground floor is a casual dining zone, where you can pop in for a bit of dim sum, Sichuan noodles or street market styles all plates.
On the lower ground floor, diners can enjoy a drink at the bar and choose to eat at either the Dragon Dining Room or in the hot pot ‘Temple Room’.
For something more intimate, there’s a Private Dining Suite and eight Private Booths along the Silk Passage to choose individually named.
The cocktail bar offers a unique variety of drinks showcasing the Dragon Inn Club experience.But while the food might be a modern take on Sichuan cooking, the décor, which features antique furniture and accessories imported from China, makes you feel like you’ve stepped into 8th century China.

Dragon Inn Club Review - Foodepedia
food
In a little-known part of London, we find a bit of a gem of a place where the Sichuan cooking is definitely hot.
The menu at first glance has pretty much what you’d expect of a Chinese restaurant, but I’d looked at it on the website earlier and earmarked the Sichuan dishes.
Today I am older and wiser and so with my dish of Sichuan classic dry fried chicken I carefully pick out the pieces of chicken from the mass of chillies and only let one or two bits of the soaked and then fried chili come with the meat.
It’s delicious, the chicken which has been marinated in soy sauce and rice wine and then coated in cornflour, is sweet and tender and then the chili and Sichuan pepper kick in like a drum fill.
In Ma Po Tofu with minced beef, one of the signature Sichuan dishes, the silken tofu is cooked with fermented bean paste, ground Sichuan pepper and other aromatics and spices.

Sizzling Sichuan: Dragon Inn Club restaurant review | The Week ...
staff food drinks
The back of Victoria Station is not generally known for its fine dining or Sichuan cuisine, but the Dragon Inn Club makes up for its unusual location with high-quality food and service.
The Robata Grill on the ground floor is a casual cocktail bar with light fare - dim sum, Sichuan noodles and street market style plates - while the main restaurant downstairs is divided into dimly lit sections, creating a relaxed tone.
I stayed with seafood for the main course, ordering the soft shell crab with garlic and Sichuan bell chilli (a very reasonable £14.80).
My partner opted for the Sichuan fragrant-spiced fillet steak slices - the Dragon Inn Club being a Sichuan restaurant, after all.
Our kind waiter suggested a side of green tea iced cream, rather than vanilla, and our final course was a spectacular display.

Dragon Inn Club | Sichuan Cuisine in a Very Sichuan Space
ambience food
Dragon Inn Club | Victoria Chinese Restaurant The lights at the Dragon Inn Club are set pretty low.
It dives right in, and sets the tone for, THE MENU Being a Sichuan restaurant, the menu is tapestry of heat, with searingly hot chillies casually thrown into virtually every dish, with the notable exception of their seafood vegetable dim sum – other starters include the delicious French corn-fed chicken dressed in chilli oil, served cold with delicate leaves of cabbage.
Larger dishes range from lobster with Sichuan chilli herbs, to double-cooked pork belly with leeks spices, and wild mushrooms served in a stone bowl with silky egg tofu.
We are of course talking about, THE HOT POT Built into the tables, you’ll find a huge cooking pot (partitioned into 2/3 sections) which they’ll fill with hot broths – including the benignly light chicken spring onion, or the slightly fiercer Sichuan chilli – into which you can stir a cornucopia of ingredients handed to you on platters; everything from scallops, to wagyu beef, to vegetables, and more.

In its previous incarnation the restaurant was apparently popular with Chinese diners, but its new owner is hoping to broaden its appeal with a revised food offer, better wine and a focus on cocktails.
For those readers that aren’t Chinese history buffs that means a forest’s worth of rustic wood panelling, dragons, red lanterns and plenty of bamboo.
The upstairs has an open kitchen - not a common sight in a Chinese restaurant - and the downstairs has a dark, late-night vibe.
The food: Billed as a modern take on Sichuan cooking, the menu sees Sichuanese classics such as mapo tofu, twice-cooked pork and chicken dry-fried with huge quantities of chilli and numbing Sichuan peppers jostle for position with more contemporary fare including prawn ravioli with chilli; and pumpkin chips coated in egg yolk.
And another thing: Chinese food buffs will likely be particularly interested in the Sichuan style appetisers section of the menu.
