Pearl Liang: A Premier Dim Sum Destination in London

Delicious divine drunken chicken! A must try. 

A very nice upscale dim sum place near London Paddington (beautiful civilized neighborhood by a canal). Fast service.

Peking duck is very good too if a bit pricy. 

Love the shrimp in a nest (crispy thin wonton type of container)

They offer even foie gras fried rice (we didn't order it but fun to see such a menu item).

Absolutely delicious Chinese food. Love the Bbq duck and the Chinese bokchoy! The ambiance was also very nicely done. All I can say is better customer service. The server was efficient, thank goodness.

this is a real gem of a Chinese restaurant central slight outside the usual central locations for this food (Chinatown/ Baker Street/ Bayswater) - the dim sum is fantastic and I can honestly say better than anywhere we've tried in in London and even Hong Kong (my wife is cantonese) - so much so we come here every week and have been doing so for nearly 20 years. it bemuses me that anyone could ever write a negative review about this restaurant- the service is persona, food quality flavour and presentation second to none and the ability to book and eat in a calm environment (so many central London locations have the atmosphere of McDonalds ...not very good for the digestion!) 
can't recommend pearl Liang highly enough- highly recommended

Food was all really good! Pomegranate sweet and sour chicken was a standout and the wasabi prawn dumplings too.

Service was excellent, plates were taken away immediately and  tap water was refilled as we ate.

The restaurant was quiet but the place was classy and clean.

A Surprising delightful & tasty place for dim sum.

I eat dim sum a lot and would definitely come back again! 

Came hear for a quick lunch and was so surprised to find such a tasty place. Order -- prawn & chives dumpling, egg tart, char sui cheung fun, sticky rice in lotus leaf. First the dumpling was so tasty I ordered a second order. The rice was flavorful and moist, the egg tart nice. The cheung fun was ok, didn't love the char sui (bbq pork). Didn't taste fresh, but its possible in this steamed dish it loses its flavor and texture. Would definitely try another filling though. 

All in all, highly recommend this place when you're craving dim sum or a lunch bite.

The food was pretty good but the service was lackluster. I didn't get his name but he had white hair in a ponytail style. The server was very unmotivated, slow and seemed like he wanted to be elsewhere or something. We may be back but will request another server.

Excellent variety of dim sum offered. Freshly prepared. Good service. Great quality food. Not very crowdwd on a Saturday afternoon. More upscale than Lonfon Chinatown dim sum

Food is flat out mediocre and service is awful. Complete waste of time and money. Do yourself a favor and avoid this place. So disappointed that we spent any money at this place.

80326256-cd49-4277-a965-ae34aa5d69a9

When we first walked in our expectations were high the place was beautiful and looked promising we were promptly told we only had 10 mins to order due to it being late so we quickly chose our dishes and than waited 45 min for our food. The food was ... to put it lightly not good . I ordered beef with chili sauce what I got was boiled beef swimming in oil water and chili it had no taste and was not good at all. My husband got the steak with honey sauce (I can't remember the names exactly ) and it tasted good but his portion was so small a toddler could eat it. We also got spring rolls that were so dry and tasteless a part of me feels because we came and hour before closing they rushed our food and that's why it was so bad but i won't be going back to find out
