Welcome Inn — Restaurant in London

While relatively popular, the food is not authentic Sichuan or Peking cuisine and caters more for western tastes. Quality of service has varied on several visits, but staff are friendly. For those familiar with real Chinese food will be a little disappointed since the menu is a pale imitation on real Beijing [Peking] and Sichuan [Szechuan] cuisine. I have never had Ma La Tofu [麻辣豆腐] with peas in it, nor where tofu has been deep fried. The so-called Sea Spiced Aubergine, which was supposed to be the classic Yu Xiang Qiezi, or Fish Favoured Aubergine [鱼香茄子] was almost flavourless and the aubergine itself was bitter. The Kung Pao Prawn, or Gong Bao Da Xia [宫爆大虾], was the best of the three dishes ordered, but was not the classic Sichuan dish. In fact it was really the more well known King Prawns Hong Kong-style dish where battered prawns are covered in a sweet & sour sauce. The restaurant has had a make-over and the décor is better than before. There are dishes that are good, but for those seeking authentic Chinese cuisine, this restaurant unfortunately fails to...

Ordered a delivery just before 8pm and still waiting for the food at 10 !! Checked progress to be told it would be with us by 9.40 tonight at the very latest as they were running late. I called the restaurant after this time to be told that they had tried to call us on the number we had used to order our food 4 times as our door number is apparently not on Uber. Our phone never rangnn n once ! This is absolute rubbish as we have Uber deliveries all the time. I’m now down by over £46 and they’re telling me they’ll cook it again and deliver it but told them I did not want to eat at midnight so to cancel it. Still no refund though. What the hell is going on ???...

Just got back from the welcome inn. It was our first visit, we thought we would try it as it had good reviews and we had been given personal recommendations.

We were not disappointed, the food and service was excellent. The meal was my birthday which I mentioned just 5-10 minutes before we left and the waiters brought out a birthday cake and took a picture of the party (which they gave me a copy of). That was a really nice thought.

We usually have Chinese food elsewhere however the welcome inn is definitely on our list of must return to Restaurant's.

I also found the prices...
