The view is obviously amazing - and the food? I was skeptical as such a place does not need great food to be popular and the interior is not impressive for a new-ish place. The red paint when you enter looks a bit cheap, the floor too, and the table decoration is not special either.
I was wrong. The food is spectacular and the Peking Duck was the best one I had in London (yes - it beats the obvious Mayfair places). You have to pre-order it and I urge you to do so. It is the highlight but the other dishes I tried were also quite tasty. Try the dim sum and soft shell crab starter.
We paid £110 per person with 2 glasses of wine; £80 without the wine. The half duck was £50 and is great value.
Oh and did I mention the view?

Fine chinese restaurant overlooking on the park. Foods are delicious, especially the preorder peaking duck. Most of the Dim sums orded are very good as well.
Sunday Dim Sum is much recommended. I thoroughly enjoy every dish I have ordered. Before you come do make a booking in advance, otherwise you could be disappointed.
So. Last minute lunch with a friend. Get in quick for the Duck and Dim Sum special for £55 for the special half duck and 2 dim sum. I cannot highlight how good the food is, how great the staff are and how stunning the view is across Hyde Park.
One of the best Pekin Duck restaurants in London. The fine-dining restaurant has great atmosphere, too. Perfect location for celebrations and important festivals.
I am disappointed. The duck was great but the second dish of Peking duck did not arrive. We asked for the remaining to be chopped but it did not come. Soup was nice. Yam ring was good. Service hit and miss. Wine list was average. For the price paid I think service needs to be coordinated well. Even in Chinatown we can get better service.
The service is very good, it is recommended to book in advance. The roast duck is very delicious. It is recommended to make a reservation in advance and come to eat around 12 noon or 6 pm when it opens, because the duck meat is hotter and tastes better. The restaurant is on the tenth floor and offers views of Hyde Park and the London Eye. Desserts and fish tasted good, tofu didn't.
