Review of taste of china from 20 November 2012
I ordered a take away for my birthday.  Gourmet starter, hunan lamb, crispy sweet and sour prawns, lamb in yellow bean sauce, stir fried mixed veg, and chicken in black bean.  It was all ready in 10 minutes and was served in plastic microwave dishes.  Totally suspect.  They didn't bother taking the pancakes out of the plastic wrapper it came out of the freezer in, the lamb was drier than Ann Widdecombe's sn**ch, and the prawns had been cooked a while before, probably days before. I know because I asked for the sauce separately, and looked at the dry prawns in dry batter and wondered what I was eating it for. The gourmet starter was what you would find in the freezer of a chinese supermarket.  Chinese frozen food, prepared by Chinese people in a microwave.  £48.00.  The stir fry veg was fresh and good but the rest was absolute sh**e.  Really gone backwards in the last few years.  Shame.

Review of taste of china from 20 April 2012

Really good food, decent prices and good service. The atmosphere of the restaurant is relaxing and not too cluttered with decorations. There is a large car park very close to the restaurant which makes it conveniently located. I ate there last with a large group and the service was attentive and swift, and the food really tasty. Definitely plan on returning!

Review of taste of china from 9 December 2011

Very dissapointing Evening, Christmas party , restaurant staff surly and not very helpfull, some food OK,some at best poor.Being told ‘I heard you’ in a snappy way after repeating my order for a coffee when I had already asked and genuinely didn’t think I had been heard,summed up the attitude of the staff in this restaurant. I would say that Harrow is not great for restaurants on the whole,but we all agreed that evening that next year we will visit a nearby Indian.

Review of taste of china from 19 June 2011

Went there on new years and was bitterly dissapointed, bad food, bad service, bad decorations BADDDD Staff unfriendly and tried to rush you in and out like a cattle market. Also staff tried to fiddle us with our drinks and charge us double. NOT IMPRESSED.

Review of taste of china from 8 January 2011

YUK NEVER AGAIN!!!!! I don't think that this place would be a busy if it wasn't in central Harrow. I would never go here again and wouldn't reccomend it either!. Voume of food was high however the actual quality was awfull. Prawns in butter sauce were more like Prawns in corn flour and the chilli beef was just match sticks in batter.Pure business no TLC or care in this place.Service was actually the worst ever with a man who looked like he had been chewing a wasp. When the bill came I refused to pay the service and was challenged by the moody waiter.He was rude and even had the cheek to tell me if I returned and did not pay the service charge I would not be alowed back raising his voice! Cheek ....... wouldn't go back there if it was free

this is a great chinese restaurant especially if you are vegetarian. the veggie duck in pancakes is a must. very friendly, delicious food. great variety for the vegetarians - huge selection of gluten dishes to imitate the meat so you dont feel left out

Very good resturant love the food here. great service and friendly staff, and good food.
Their dim sum is very good, the food is slightly expensive but well worth it as it tastes so good. We went there with teh family and we all enjoyed it they have a wide selection of dishes, we wanted certain styles of food that were not on the menu and they made it for us how we wanted, very good.
