I’d heard a lot of good things about Loon Fung, but despite repeated stroll-pasts over the years I’d never had the opportunity to dine there. I was glad to rectify that omission, this evening. The interior is quite striking with bamboo poles jutting out from the ceiling at alarming angles. The tables and chairs were very smart, too. I was impressed.
Great seafood. Sweet chili calamari and hot pot are my favorite dishes. A hidden gem.
Don't understand all the bad reviews. Always have a good meal in or takeaway. Yes it's more expensive but the portions are really big. It's far superior to any other takeaway in the area
We used to go here regularly in the mid seventies but hadn't been in ages until the other day when we went to celebrate grandson's second birthday. To be honest, if the food had been mediocre I would still rave about the place because the staff were so unbelievably kind and friendly. As it happens, though, the food was just great. Mango chicken and salty and spicy king prawn were particularly tasty. Will definitely be back very soon.
The carry out food is great try the steamed spare ribs in black bean sauce and lemon chicken. Yes it's expensive compared to other but worth that few pounds extra
Had a fantastic takeaway from here. BBQ spare ribs are meaty with a great sauce. Chicken breast curry was succulent, big bits of chicken, a sauce that wasn't overly greasy or runny. The other half went for Mango chicken which again had large pieces of chicken breast, his only complaint was the large pieces of Mango weren't required and a little over powering, but he just popped them to the side. We shared a egg fried rice which was so ungreasy I felt like I was eating boiled but with the taste of fried. Next time I really want to sit in, the restaurant was lovely and the staff very welcoming even though I just popped in to collect.
I visited the restaurant a few times. The food was excellent and served hot at the table. The staff and the owner were very attentive in ensuring that the food and service were good. I will definitely return
Delicious food and very friendly and attentive service. Would recommend the dim sum starters as well as the spring roll (pancake). The restaurant specialised in seafood. The prawns two ways are delicious. Nice atmosphere too. Medium size space but filled up quite quickly when we were there on a Thursday night so would recommend booking.
my family and i came here for my dad’s birthday and had a GREAT time!!! the food was authentic, fresh, and delicious. the service was even better - the head waitress was attentive, professional, and incredibly kind. the owner came out to speak with us and we had a great, meaningful conversation with him! great people, great ambience, great food! definitely recommend :)
In my short stay in Edinburgh, I've eaten here twice. Once on my first day and once on my last.
The food here is excellent, presentation and flavourwise its all there.
The service is very good. They make you feel like honoured guests and will keep your water filled.
Furthermore they are very personal.
I definitely recommend their Lotus bun dessert, it is so good.
I recently dined and it left a lasting impression on us. From the moment we stepped in, the impeccable service made us feel like valued guests. The staff was attentive, friendly, and prompt in catering to my needs. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, with tasteful decor that created a cozy ambiance. As for the food, every dish we tried was a culinary delight. From the fragrant and perfectly seasoned Sweet and sour chicken to the mouthwatering dim sum, each bite was a symphony of flavors. This restaurant exceeded my expectations in every aspect, and I wholeheartedly recommend it for anyone seeking a memorable dining experience.

I give 5 stars to restaurants when the experience is flawless: service,food,ambience. That’s what Loon Fung delivered.
Came here after strolling through the Botanical Gardens. We did not have reservations but were able to secure a table. For appetizers, we ordered their special dumplings, vegetarian(chives) steamed dumplings, and hot and sour soup and for mains, we ordered the seafood basket and the Singaporean style rice noodles. We asked for no MSG and they complied.The dumplings were well seasoned and flavorful. The soup was hot and tangy. Set us up perfectly for the mains. Our plates were pre warmed so amazing touch. The noodles were not oily and stringy packed with flavor with a little not overpowering heat. The seafood is supposedly their specialty and it was fresh and light. The basket was made of hash Browns that soaked up the sauce so it was amazing to eat at the end. Their chili oil also is homemade and made of whole chilies, soya, and oil.. amazing. Their dessert of fresh coconut ice cream in a coconut shell was unique and probably the best coconut ice cream I have ever had. It tasted like shredded coconut and mildly sweet.. just like having fresh coconut meat at the beach.
They wrapped up the meal experience with hot towelettes.
These additional services mean nothing if the food is not great, but to have everything come together perfectly is a recipe for 5 stars.
Had quite the feast and it was rly good. The woman who served us was so quick and professional, she never let our glasses get empty. The hot towel at the end was a really good addition to the experience.
This place is amazing, food is so worth it. We tried beef, chicken, rice and noodles and everything was on point. The atmosphere is great and the staff are so friendly and respectful. I highly recommend this place. We also met the owner, who welcomed us and was really friendly and welcoming!!
Amazing... I placed an order a couple months back and unfortunately I had to give a bad review but everything was resolved. Manager reimbursed the £40.00 plus a £20.00 voucher The curry is to die for, it was lovely. The bbq ribs were full of meat nd sauce was gorgeous. Special fried rice was adapted a bit for me as I like bbq sauce & char sui was put through for me. Manager was lively and delivery driver polite and helpful. Lovely wee gem of a place I have found. This is my new Chinese takeaway.. You must try, you won't be disappointed. Thank you
1. Exactly the flavours in a normal Hong Kong/Canton restaurant, I was super excited to have visited this place for the vibe and food in Glasgow. Thank you!
2. The price was pretty high though. I understand that quality costs but..
3. All is well except the 鮮竹卷，I was expecting it to be steamed and then it turned out fried.
