Tai Pan — Restaurant in London

First, I want to say this is my first experience. My review of the food can be due to me not being fan of Thai food. That being said I have tried sweet sour chicken before and it was not that bad with proper sauce. In Tai Pang the sour sweet chicken tasted like dipping the chicken in a sweet ketchup.

The manager shouted at us to sit down while he rebooted the machine then kept accusing us of not having enough money to pay for our meal and was blaming our cards.Obviously once the machine rebooted out payment was accepted. The manager and rude staff (who had been talking about us in their native language) and did not apologise once. AVOID AT...

The Tai Pan which we have loved for 30 years is no more.

Having lived in the area and spent many occasions here, celebrating birthday, anniversary's and other special occasions it's is sad to see the decline of the Tai Pan.

Visited on a Sunday. Used to always be busy with people queuing outsid. Now the tables inside are 3/4 empty.

On ordering, the food presented all tastes and looks the same... the sweet and sour, the szechuan.

Served on tiny plates, all luke warm. When we asked for the warm plates we are told they are no more.

The familiar features I remember have gone. The chop sticks and holder, the attentive friendly service... They just want...
