The sticky rice was tasty. Properly done mochi rice and great flavor. They put various meats including roast pork and Chinese sausage. XLB were quite authentic and tasty as well.
Siu mai was way too shrimp heavy. Cheung fun was not good with crispy shrimp as a filling.
The prices were very high. Terrible value.
The best Chinese restaurant for dim sum and dinner!! So good my family came twice, 2-days in a row. The best banquet food I’ve had in my life. The way the suckling pig came out was iconic.
One of the two best Chinese dim sum places I would happily recommend to anyone visits London and the food were so good I forgot to take pictures.
I arrived before 13:00 and the place was half full and when I left an hour later there were already queues.
I have ordered the classics, the fried prawn Chung Fun, the chicken feet, the prawn dumplings, the pork dumplings, the fried octopus balls, goose feet, etc. In other restaurants, I should be able to finish all of them but because the portion here is very generous so I ended up taking doggy bags. The service was good because they even packed the doggy bags in a very nice bag for me. Will definitely visit next time!
Phoenix Palace is one of those places that delivers a true dim sum feast. Every dish was beautifully prepared and full of flavour. The setting is elegant, the service was efficient.
It’s definitely not a cheap spot, but if you're after authentic Chinese cuisine done right, it’s worth the splurge. Great for special occasions or when you just want to treat yourself to the real deal.
