Gung Ho

Gung-Ho is by far one of the best Chinese/Szechuan restaurants in London. We went for dinner last weekend to celebrate with friends and as usual, the service was outstanding and very friendly, the food was delicious and the atmosphere was stylish yet cosy.

I would highly recommend the smoked chicken shreds and crispy duck with pancakes.

We also regularly get takeaway from Gung-Ho usually on one of those chilled Saturday nights when you just want to stay in and watch TV. Even then the food is just as tasty and is always delivered quickly.

Honestly we've always had a fantastic experience going to eat at Gung-Ho, that's why we keep coming back for more!

We went to Gung Ho for Chinese New Year and had a really good meal. The service was friendly without being overbearing and the restaurant was laid out well so there was a good atmosphere without feeling cramped. The vegetable spring rolls were a little bit greasy but everything else was fresh and well prepared with good size portions. The crispy duck pancakes were particularly good! Would recommend for a nice meal out or a take away, we will definitely be going there again.

One of the best chinese restaurants you will find in North London. It has very friendly staff and the food is very good. I live in west hampstead that has a number of chinese takeaway options, but Gung-ho is definitely the best. The price has increased over the last few months, but I guess that is a sign of the times. I recommend the salt and chilli prawns or shredded chicken.

Such an awful meal I had. Simply couldn't eat at all. Don't even think about going there. It's really bad.

Love, love, love, this restaurant the food is amazing the surroundings and service exquisite and the price very reasonable a real treat. I would have to comment I felt like Alice in wonderland going to the toilets as the ceiling got lower and lower no biggy but true.

Really bad food - just got a takeaway from here. Spicy aubergines were nice but double cooked pork tasted and looked more like sweet and sour char siu and Kung po chicken was just slices of reconstituted chicken swimming in slightly sweet and sour oily water with a bit of water chestnut!

Rang restaurant in case we got the wrong order but he said it's the way they've cooked for 20 years.

Utterly disappointed. Feel completely ripped off. There are far better Chinese restaurants around.

Rather than content an satisfied - I am now very agitated!! Not good.

We have been going to the Gung Ho for some twelve years and have NEVER had a bad meal in all that time. It is the perfect setting for small gatherings of two to large family gatherings around their large round tables. We always recommend it as the best Chinese food outside of China Town to anyone who wants a special meal.

This restaurant is always busy too. Which says a lot.
