A month ago we had a Dim Sum withdrawal and decided to try a new place here in West London. We ended in Bo Lang after some research. Wonderful place, great service, and amazing Dim Sum
Not as delicious as I thought it would be, sadly. I mean the har gau with blackberry reduction look beautiful, but it tasted like har gau without the blackberry reduction.
The chicken truffle was really lovely, I loved the combination and I don't eat meat.
The duck salad was my favourite, which is a shame because I went for Dim Sum.
The duck spring rolls look pretty, they taste like duck spring rolls.
The saffron scallop dumpling, I found quite tasty.
The black squid dumpling was overloaded with fish roe, which I cannot stand.
But the cocktails were delightful! Love the fortune cookie, it actually comes with a fortune cookie.
Food was okay, but definitely not worth the price. Drinks were well balanced, different, delightful. Dark atmosphere, could use a different genre of music, and a little too hot for my comfort zone. Waiters were very nice, and helpful.
Bo Lang is a very stylish, modern Chinese dim sum restaurant and teahouse in South Kensington. They do traditional dim sum but the focus of the menu is on avant garde, unusual dim sum that most of the time is delicious and works very well. It is so interesting to see the dim sum you know modernized in Bo Lang. The dim sum is not cheap and an average plate for 4 pieces costs £6 (and many dim sums are more expensive) but if you want a luxurious dim sum experience, regardless of the price, this place truly delivers. I went to Bo Lang with a group of my friends and we had lunch here on a Sunday. The interior is dark and the room has grey leather sofas and charcoal velvet chairs and it has been designed by Shaun Clarkson. The interior did sort of reminded me of interior in Hakassan (although Bo Lang is much smaller) with Chinese dividing walls separa
Bo Lang is a shiny, new, pricey dim sum restaurant and teahouse in South Ken. I wasn’t good enough to challenge Yauatcha and A Wong as my favourites but I would return.
Interesting dinner, nice food, a bit overpriced I would say especially relative to other dim sum offerings in london.
For a dim sum restaurant, the selection is quite small though! But that is one of the very few london places to serve its full dim sum menu in the evening!
The restaurant is a bit too dark for my taste.
Would I go back? Only if i really need dim sum at 9pm!
Called on a friday night and was welcomed with open arms. The lady that took the reservation made it her focus to make sure we were comfortable and happy! We were told we would only have an 1.5 slot which was fine because we were going to an exhibition. Food had a lot of flavour and was exactly what we wanted.
I'd recommend the first red wine on the list, it was fantastic! Would definitely come again

It was then on for dinner at Bo Lang just across the road. Although I love Valentine's day, I hate it when restaurants serve an over-priced set menu for the day, Bo Lang was our restaurant of choice because they were still serving the a la carte menu. Yay!
Bo Lang is an intimate dim sum house with a menu featuring traditional and experimental dim sum. The restaurant is small but stylish with wooden screens giving a feel of the Orient.
Naturally we started with some dim sum.
I absolutely love dim sum! The words mean 'touch your heart' and these certainly did. We chose the chef's selection and each was a heavenly pocket of loveliness.
Sichuan pepper tuna came next which was as perfectly light and fresh as it look!
Duck spring rolls. Well you can't really go wrong!
Soft shell crab, another one of my favourites!!
Sea bass with kow choi flower and Bo Lang sauce.
Bo Lang offer ice cream, sorbet or frozen yogurt for dessert. We virtuously chose the yogurt option but, by then quite tipsy, forgot to take a photo!
Bo Lang touched our hearts, the food was great and it's a lovely little place. A great alternative to the big hitters such as Hakkasan and Yauatcha. The intimate feel and the food that you share make it the perfect venue for a date night!
One of the best chinese in London! Excellent dim sum options. Very creative. Nice sake list.
My new favourite restaurant in London. The size and elegant decor make it perfect for a romantic mission. The food then sets the tone, your date will not forget your good tastes and insight into finding truly special food. The chef is a star - the food is beyond anything - just amazing! I don't care about the bill, it's that's good!
Nice food, impressed especially with the dim sum dishes some of which excelled other high-end restaurants.
Staff were friendly and helpful. Had a perfect dinner here and would visit again in near future.
lovely setting with 3 small tables outside and delicious & extraordinary dim sum
just a little too pricy for a quick lunch break
Very tasty dim sum and interesting flavors. Not worth the price though.
Good cocktails and good value for money for the dumplings. A must do for dumplings in London.
Excellent dim sum paired well with a semi dry Riesling. Stir fried cured beef paired equally well with a Beaujolais. Great service. The red wine was served too warm (20C instead of 15C) but otherwise a near-perfect meal. Finished with some sweets and plum sake, which was surprisingly pleasant.
Love this little restaurant. Located in South Kensington and it's small and cozy. Priced might be a little bit higher then standard but it's worth it. A must to try is the dumplings. And not to worry is you're vegetarian, all dishes can be made in to a vegetarian option as the cook everything fresh.
The dim sum here was incredible, and the Cocktails were fantastic.
The dim sum is definitely the freshest and tastiest dim sum I have come across in the UK. Everything is presented beautifully and the staff were really friendly.
Also the desserts were great - peppermint icecream that tasted like it was made from fresh peppermint leaves rather than mint syrup. Would highly recommend.
OK let's get this straight. The place ain't cheap and portion are relatively small. But it tastes good and I mean real GOOOOOOOOOOOOD. highly recommend they assorted/mix/sample plate of the different dumplings. As they do give you a more diverse and broad range of flavors that all taste pretty good. The Chinese burgers are good as well.
Nice Chinese food, good service, great atmosphere. Music choices were poor and kind of ruined the ambience. Up beat pop and house music is not appropriate for quiet dark fancy Chinese restaurant. Why not that ethereal Chinese music you see in movies, much more appropriate.
Great food throughout and very well looked after by all the staff. Ordered a large number of dishes to share between the two of us and they instinctively staggered the delivery so each dish was always hot and fresh! Definitely going back
