I visited the Shanghai with 2 other people on New Yrs day. We ordered soup and menu 1 for 2 people. Overall the food was good but the service was terrible. We believe there was some misunderstanding over when part of the menu was to be delivered which cause our slow service. The starter was delivered one plate at a time rather than all together which was unacceptable. Also we wanted the soup with the starter. However, even after trying to rectify the misunderstooding we were still treated poorly. Our waitress was sourer faced and tried ignore us when we called. What was most annoying was that other people came in after us and was served before us. The same waitress seemed happy to serve them rather than us. We were not demanding we were patient for a long while before we enquired about the whereabouts of our food. To get them to clear our table we resorted to piling empty plates in full view of passing staff. The main arrived rapidly. By this time we had a change of waiter. Finally, myself and a male friend was disgusted by the dirty toilets. To be honest it made my stomach turn. Despite the good food I will not go there again.

Food was satisfactory for a Chinese restaurant in London. We ordered dim sum and prices were acceptable for its Knightbridge location. We were deeply shocked when the bill came. It was ridiculous that the Chinese tea that was served was priced at £2.80 per person, the cost of each dim sum dish. Obviously we were unaware of the price when we ordered. So imagine the shock when the tea cost 1/3 of the total bill! It was just ordinary Chinese tea in a pot. Even if I were to go to a fancy tea cafe and order a pot of tea, I don't believe it would cost more than 10 pounds!
If you go there, DO NOT order the tea.
