Harden's survey result
Summary
“Killer dim sum combinations make for an experience not to forget” at this three-storey canteen-style import from NYC in Covent Garden, famous on Instagram for its prawn dish that looks like the ghosts in Pac-Man. Even some fans, though, query “why is it so expensive? The food’s great and fun and adventurous, but simply too pricey!”

Summary
A fun spin on Chinese cuisine – with an Instagrammable dim sum prawn dish that looks like the ghosts in Pac-Man – this canteen-style import from NYC (where it’s famous) has quietly arrived on a three storey site in Covent Garden with very little publicity, and a recreation of its no-bookings policy. In an initial September 2018 review, The Evening Standard’s Fay Maschler suggests prices are a little “ballsy”, ’specially as Chinatown is only a stroll away.
For 31 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).
