I just adore this place. We came for dim sum this evening and left bursting at the seams. I have never tried dim sum anywhere else but I know it would never meet my expectations the way Chung Ying does. I’m veggie and adore the tofu wrap ones so much. Server was so friendly and we’ve never been disappointed.

Bit more expensive but in my view worth it. Food was excellent: fresh, served piping hot and fast. Ambience is your typical bustling Chinese restaurant, busy and a bit chaotic with the decor still the same as 30 years ago. If you want delicious Chinese food and dim sum, I would really recommend giving this a try. Maybe book in advance to avoid being turned away.

Been here 3 times, the reason we chose to get back after the first time dissapointed because we thought maybe it just happened by chance, or they just had one bad day that day, so we gave them another 2 visits. We have noticed something:1. The food were ok, quite Westernised to us.2. You will definitely get served way better if you were a White customers, and below average service if you were East Asian looking. Not sure about other ethnicities.3. The view is good.4. The price generally is higher compared to the other Canton restaurants in town.And three times out of three we left unsatisfied with the service. Would have given them 0 star for service if I could. We won’t never come back.

I had a lovely time with my boyfriend at the restaurant. It was my birthday and I really enjoyed the meals. I had dumplings for the first time and loved it. The noodles, ducks, rice, and spring rolls were delicious. The portions were also large enough. I took leftovers home and froze them, then ate them days after, and they still tasted great.The service was really good, the staff were so nice and really lovely, warm and comfortable atmosphere.Oh, and the prices were so reasonable for such good food and drinks.My boyfriend and I will definitely visit again.

Went in the afternoon so not much atmosphere but top class service and food. Take a look at the lemon chicken and sizzling fillet steak photos. Delicious!

Food is a bit pricey, but it is so good. I guarantee it's worth it. No regrets.

I ate here before going to see Pretty Woman. It was busy,so I sat on patio. The food was tasty and loved the sizzling skillets. I missed the pretty garnish on starters that were served previously. Great wine choices too.

Called for lunch on 03/06/23 with my family who were visiting from Hong Kong. We have been to Chung Ying many times before but not in recent years. On this occasion front of house staff were unwelcoming and abrupt. Table service was prompt but there was no friendly conversation and we had to repeatedly ask for our bill. The food was nicely presented but portions were small for the price paid and most of the dishes we ordered tasted bland. The restaurant is clean, tables are ready for customers arriving and the decor is atmospheric. Overall, this is an expensive restaurant, the food lacks flavour and aspects of the service are weak. I would’ve expected better for the price paid. I cannot therefore recommend.

Excellent Chinese food.It's not the cheapest place around but the quality of the food is superb, the menu is huge too.We had a selection of Dim Sum dishes and mains. Excellent Siu Mai, Prawn spring rolls, steamed buns and Duck with lettuce wraps.Excellent drink selection, we had a lovely bottle of Gavi (Italian white wine)Staff were so friendly and seemed to be enjoying themselves, there was a great atmosphere.Large tables are perfect for big groups too.Can't wait to return during the day to try the full Dim Sum menu

The food was okay. The har gow was very very fresh but the ho fun was horrid. The meat has clearly been chemically treated for it to be tender and the ho fun was all stuck together. The scallops Cheung fun was very very fishy. Not fresh.Almost no servers spoke to us and the surrounding staff seemed very hostile.
