Yming

I was attracted to this restaurant after reading the reviews on this site, and it more than lived up to expectations. The meal was after a day out in London to treat my sister on a special birthday. The staff were very friendly and attentive, the food was excellent, and the whole experience was very memorable. Totally recommended. I will be telling all my friends, family and work colleagues to go there!

Ymings rocks, it has become a real staple for me and my foodie husband, so much so that the staff now greet me by my first name....not always the case in London, nevermind Soho.

Works for all; veggie and meat heads..

Go!

Not sure what the review commenting on no Chinese people eating at YMning is talking about...every time I have gone it has been packed...mostly with Chinese enjoying a reasonably priced,excellent menu that is cooked to perfection and served with speed and always a smile and good humour. Fantastic - go there and try it yourself :)

A group of Filipino friends finding solace in the usual; Chinese Food with rice. Lo and behold, not only did we get to taste rice again in this foreign land but also find the food very, very delicious.

Having grown up with Chinese fares, finding one in this beautiful city was a surprise and one that presented dishes not quite common for us at least, such as using lambs.

Do try they're Sesame Prawn Toast. The staff provide excellent service and made us travellers feel quite at home.

Yming continues to serve wonderful chinese food with attentive service from friendly and helpful staff. There may well be better but we have yet to find it in the West End and we are choosy and quite difficult to please. There are so many places in central London ready to take your money and provide a rubbish product/service that it's a delight to find a gem like Yming amongst the dross. Long may it thrive!!

If any of the very occasional critics of Yming can suggest better then I defy you to do so!

Visited Yming's last night again for the third time but with 7 other ladies who was new to Yming's. Brilliant experience as usual! The food was top notch again, the sevice and staff was wonderful as before.

We had the set menu at £25 per person, everything was cooked to perfection, especially the crispy duck and pancakes, beautiful presention as well.

Me and my friends was also given as an extra treat after our dessert, the fried chocolate! which was yummy!

My friends absolutley loved it! Thanks to all at Yming's, We'll be back for our next chinese meal very soon

I am appalled by PK's review of YMIng. I am Chinese from Malaysia and I am a foodie. My partner and I have been going to YMing on a weekly basis for the past 3 years and we love the food. We think it is the best Chinese restaurant in Soho/Chinatown. As compared to London, I think the quality of the food is just next to Hakkasan - but Hakkasan charges 2 times the price. I find YMing's food is comparable to, if not better than, most of the Chinese food in Malaysia. I am not English, I am a true and true Chinese and I would say YMing serves some of the best Chinese food in London.

Love it. If you want good authentic Southern Chinese food served with a smile and for a reasonable price, go here. The perfect antidote to the lazy run-of-the-mill Gerrard Street and the admittedly good but rip-off ex-Yau eateries. Have been going here regularly for three years since randomly finding it one night and food/service has been consistently good every time. And there's not a water feature in sight...
