About China City

China City restaurant a few steps from London’s on-the-go Leicester Square is a bright, shining palace of classic Chinese cuisine. This in-town branch of the hit China City in Colindale arrives with the same high standards of cuisine and service. The dining space is sleek and modern in tones of white, neutral and royal red and there’s plenty of party space if that’s your fancy. Dim sum is available every day until five pm when the vast a la carte menu comes into its own, featuring signature dish The Steamboat, a sort of Chinese Fondue in nine varieties (pre-book for Friday and Saturday evenings). The set menu is terrific value, too.

Prompt and courteous service. Dim sum quality on par with other restaurants in Chinatown. 15%-off for lunch - not listed on toptable, could be an introductory offer.

China City-Leicester Square. Warm welcome. Very good quality, reasonably priced chinese food. Used to visit when this was Poons but this establishment has retained Poons high standards.

The dim sum was very fresh and tasty, remind me if I was in china. For the price of £1.90 per dish with 15% discount, we had 12 dishes of different variety, only come up to less than £20,which was very worth if for the price we paid. Please try the 'har gar (prawn dumpling)' definitely delicious.
