One of the worst food experiences this year. I literally left hungry. To be honest, meat dishes looked good, but if you are vegetarian there is nothing to eat. I only could have a soup, spring roll and side vegetables. That's all they have on...offer. It's shocking that such a a central restaurant is not intrested in making money (I would be happy to order some quality real food). It was also embarrassing for my friends that they recommend coming here. Funny enough they have some tofu dishes but soaked in beef or prawns. Just to be sure that vegetarians are not welcome here. If your are vegan, I presume water only. After all we evacuated as quick as possible to find something to eatMore

The food was refined, delicious and generous. The wine specialist gave us the best advice about a wine matured in an amphora. We really enjoyed our experience at the restaurant.

At this price range, 100 gbp per person, I would not expect we were given the bill without being asked if we wanted dessert or coffee, and told that we have finished as the table was required for another group of guests. Food is good,...by UK standard.More

Privileged to be treated to a private dining experience at the Imperial Treasure recently. I have visited several times previously both in London and Singapore and always have a very special meal – among the favourites I always make sure to order a Peking duck,...which is expensive worth it as a very special dish that Imperial does better than any other restaurant. For this visit our hosts selected some new dishes for us to try, including lobster with braised noodle, ginger and spring onion and Turbot steamed with soya sauce. The turbot was deliciously moist, cooked to perfection with just the right amount of seasoning from the soy. Wonderful memories of this visit !More

We had a room for 8 of us. Manager Fernnie and her staff recommended several house signature dishes, including the skinny fried fish skins, lobster noodle, peking duck, poached wagyu beef, crispy pork belly and honey glazed pork etc which were all very delectable. The...ambience was perfect for celebration with good friends and business contacts. Service was prompt and attentive, and we even had a Chinese style birthday “cake” for one of the guests. Overall, all 8 of us had enjoyed the evening very much and we will come back again. It was an awesome evening and certainly Imperial is one of the best Chinese fine dining restaurants in London.More

It’s my second time visit. Excellent service and food quality! Definitely worth the money and it is perfect for group dining. Restaurant vibe is very cozy.

This was a very mixed experience. The good things: Peking duck was amazing and crispy prawns in egg yolk also very good. The bad things: - poor service given the price point. Had to keep trying hard to catch the waiter’s eye. The staff couldn’t...speak english to a level where they could understand our questions or make proper recommendations (not their fault but the owners should provide adequate training). Fine in a pizza express but not at a “top” restaurant. - the fried rice was £30 for a bowl but was bland and tasted no better than at your average Chinese restaurant. - the men’s toilets were horrible. The urinals were full of urine so unusable, and there were three blokes who looked like bouncers loitering outside and inside. Really weird. - 15% service charge added on definitely not justified by the level of service. Overall not good enough given v high prices, but some of the food is great. Feels like a bit of a mug off.More

This restaurant has suffered a massive deterioration in quality and service. We were led into the dining room through the staff stations alleyway. The staff did not understand the menu. While the soup dumplings retained its quality the har gau tasted salty and not fresh...at all. The iberico pork char Siu was the fattiest piece of meat I have seen and the kung pao chicken was frankly not worth eating (colourless and tepidly cooked). The char Siu bao was dry.

WOW. Imperial treasure is not a restaurant but an all immersive 4D dining experience. The food was amazing but the toilet was better. The tranquility I felt there was comparable to that of a premier spa. If given the choice, I would have gladly eaten...my food in the toilet. Staff were very friendly and handsome.More
