Chung Ku's location is a dichotomy. It is located in a seemingly insalubrious end of town and yet beautifully located right by the Mersey. Once you are in, you are faced with a beautiful, panoramic, celing-to-floor view of River Mersey. There is plenty of parking.
The food is delicuous and authentically Cantonese Chinese. You know it is frequented by Chinese people, not only by seeing so many Chinese people there, but by the number of large round tables. That is a big giveaway.
We had stir-fry morning glory with garlic; stewed oysters & pork belly; and sizzle plate Chinese-style beef.
Unusually, they not only have a dim sum chef, they serve dim sum in the evening, so we couldn't resist ordering a portion of steamed prawn dumplings.
Tip....ask for the Chinese menu. That is where all the best food lies. The staff are very friendly, so ask them to help you to expand your horizons and eat like the Chinese.
All the food came on time. The location is amazing. Full panoramic mersey views. Good portions of food. Drinks and food are expensive but high quality and filling. Staff are friendly and the food arrived perfectly on time.
We come here for special occasions - scenery is amazing
The wedding meal was delicious - especially the crab balls
We have been going to Chung Ku for years, we last went for my Daughters 21st Birthday, A few years back we met Paul Mcgann there. It's my wife's and my favourite restaurant!
Longing for some dim sum. So we went to this Hong Kong restaurant. You can order dim sum all of the day here.
They will serve you some free soup first. Today is seaweed and pork soup. Dim sums are very nice. Traditional Hong Kong taste. The best dish is fried chilli soft shell crab, it’s hot, crispy and super delicious!
What I don’t like is the chicken. It’s almost tasteless.
Good view, nice staff.
My favourite Chinese restaurant in Liverpool. Some dishes are better than ones you could get in Hong Kong. Also very good value for money. I do try others but always come back to this one. Been a customer for close to 30 years. It's a light and airy restaurant with a lovely view of the river.
Haven't been for a while,went back today. Simply the best.
It’s a Chinese restaurant with dim sum and great sea view. Dim Sum are very good, well over those in China town for most of the choices.
Unfortunately the rice is just normal. So if you are going to here for dim sum, you will not get upset.
Service is a normal, but maybe the restaurant does not have enough manpower. If you need to refill the teapot, you will expect to wait for 5 minutes.
1st time eating in this restaurant, amazing view as we entered the restaurant with the sun setting across the river! That 180° view just amazing!
Good service, Good food and a fantastic view. What more can one ask? Also amper parking spaces in the front of the restaurant.
Initially I was afraid going to have dinner with a friend here, because I thought it was going to be an all Asian affair, no it wasn't. I saw people from other race/continents which made comfortable. It was my first time in an Asian restaurant, I enjoyed the tea, pork, vegetable dumplings, duck etc. It is a place to eat with your family. It has a very nice view.
Last month we celebrated partners 60th birthday at this fabulous restaurant with amazing panoramic views of both sides of river Mersey. Food, service & atmosphere were all that we could have wished for, the same as on previous visits. Very much recommended for that special occasion.
