Beijing Restaurant — Restaurant in England

staff were very nice but not accommodating. we started the night with a nice starter which was enjoyable. As we got our mains the crispy duck was far over done and rock hard to the point you could throw it at someone and it would knock them out. Then the table next to us got something sizzling unsure what it was but it made us cough so much to the point we had to ask for our bill and leave. The man also said that he warned us that our food was spicy which it 100% wasn’t so that wasn’t an excuse. The food was honestly terrible. As we asked for our bill the man serving us asked why we had left so much food (we had three mains and full plate of chips and duck) we said we can’t stay in here as the smoke was making us all cough awfully which he replied yes it’s because of the sizzling food. didn’t have even the tiniest bit of sympathy. There was also many others in the restaurant coughing around 10 of those were stood outside as it was that bad. Overall would never...

Excellent food and service to match. Very knowledgable and patient in helping my wife choose starter and main as she is gluten free. Food and drinks arrived very promptly. It was busy, so there was a nice buzz of conversation but not too loud and we never struggled to get the attention of waiting on staff, who were exceedingly polite and friendly. We didn't feel rushed when they were with us despite them being rushed off their feet themselves.

Everything we had was superb, but the stand outs were the dry shredded beef, the sizzling lamb and the paper wrapped prawn starter. Oh, and the ribs!

Wonderful evening and we will definitely go back....

Food around average in terms of quality but below it in terms of quantity imo. The prices for drinks etc too are above average so it can quickly turn into an expensive evening for what is at heart a takeaway meal at a table in a restaurant. In all honesty I have actually had better takeaways which unfortunately isn't the best thing to say when talking about a dine in restaurant where the prices exceed that of a local takeaway. I would eat here again but I wouldn't be too pushed...
