Hats off to the chef and team for the excellent experience and modest, non pretentious attitude. He really took us on a journey from his childhood memories to all his China trips and the flavours travelled us to all those spaces. The spices, techniques, flavours were all impeccably bound together and resulted in unique dishes that provoked feelings. The wine pairing was excellent, as well as all staff. The chef was always in the front line, working with the team with polite dedication. The space is so different from other michelin restaurants that enjoy exposing their avant gardness, it was rather his childhood home, much more modest and true. Thank you for the amazing experience!

Andrew and team made us feel very, very special during our dinner at A. Wong. They had written my girlfriend a personalised happy birthday card, with the whole team signing on it. The food was presented really well, in a traditional Chinese sharing dining manner. The food was flavourful, diverse and well cooked. Couldn’t complain about lack of truffles, caviar and wagyu beef. The interior, despite it being a 2 Michelin starred establishment, stays true to its Chinese diner roots. The food, whilst elevated, feels authentic, and Andrew coming out the kitchen to talk to us about the menu and what inspired him to build it the way it is, was the cherry on top. Service was personal, wine list was extensive, and food was to die for. Need to visit again for the dim sum lunch experience.

DELCIOUS dim sum lunch here recently. Service was excellent, all the staff were super knowledgeable and really friendly. Food was stunning. Every mouthful was a delight. For £175 it is a bit punchy, but a special treat and includes a wine flight, so actually not too bad! We left feeling stuffed and happy.

Quite the example of what True dedication can do, a man who grew up in the restaurant of his parents created what must be the ultimate in modern Chinese dining. Its a challenge though, 3 hours plus but a pleasure. Brilliant staff that cater for everything, incl the non alcoholic pairing, which was brilliant. Is it expensive, yes quite, but do yourself a favour and forget the price it only tells you if you can afford it, not what its worth

Four of us enjoyed the Taste of China evening tasting meal a few months ago and I’ve been meaning to drop a review for a while. It was magical, from the narration, to the education in Chinese food, to the glorious taste bud work out. The thought and care that has gone into this experience is obviously immense. Textures, smells, mouth feel and TASTE we topped with the visual feat of the presentation. We chose the deeply intuitive wine pairing, and all rolled out of the restaurant like very happy weevils. I will definitely do this again, brilliant!!!!

Wow. Definitively the best meal I've ever had. My boyfriend took me here for our 7 month anniversary and it was an amazing evening. We got there a bit early and were seated in the bar downstairs, which was a very nice, quiet environment with delicious drinks. I got the Xinjiang, which was very tasty even for someone who usually isn't the biggest cocktail person. Such comfortable seating as well - in the entire restaurant, not just the bar. I have arthritis and my back didn't hurt by the end of the 4.5 hour long meal, which is really a feat of nature. The service was also amazing. It was so much more relaxed than other fine dining restaurants I've been to - not in any way unprofessional, just much more relaxed and real. The waiters felt like people, not actors, which I really appreciated. The performative formality of fine dining restaurants can make me a bit uncomfortable, and it was so nice to have waiters who laughed with us. They explained the dishes very well, didn't talk down to us, and addressed both of us, not just my boyfriend. Onto the food...wow. what even to say? Out of 28 courses, there literally wasn't a single one that I didn't like. Every single dish was incredible - not a dud amongst them. The ones that stand out to me in particular are: the char siu, which is one of my favorite foods period, and was the tastiest renditions I've had - Perfectly crispy and sweet and savory and salty - with foi Gras - delicious; the smacked cucumber, which was so flavorful - I loved the fish roe; the steamed shrimp with mung bean noodles, perfectly cooked and so many textures; the wood ear fungus, which was mind-blowing - so much depth of flavor in one bite; the "shark fin soup" dish, which was not only delicious, but also interactive; the chrysanthemum tofu, which came in an amazing broth; and the coconut water ice dessert, which had so many amazing textures and flavors and was a delicious, refreshing way to end the meal. The fact that I could only narrow it down to 7 courses and didnt even mention the soup dumplings should really tell you something about how good this restaurant is. I haven't even mentioned the drink pairing! I got a non-alcoholic pairing, which was delicious. They matched the wines with mostly different teas and vinegars, which I loved. If you're a fan of vinegar (I am!!!), you will love this restaurant. My boyfriend got the regular wine pairing and really enjoyed it. He commented that the pours were quite generous as well. They also made him a menu for his wine list, which was very kind of them. Overall I have literally nothing bad to say about this restaurant other than the fact that 28 courses is objectively too many for one stomach. But all 28 of them were the most delicious thing I've ever eaten, so I feel like I cant complain about that at all😂

I am always worry about Michelin starred Chinese restaurants outside of China, they are usually just expensive and not authentic. So I have put off coming to A Wong for ages. Some dim sum dishes are good, but some are Westernized that just doesn’t taste right. The winner of the day is definitely the Xiao Lung Bao and it is better than Ding Tai Fung, the worst dim sum on the menu is the Cheung Fun with black bean sauce, the rice skin was too thick and the sauce is over powering and you can’t taste the prawn nor the asparagus, the crab main was also a disappointment, Wagyu beef fried rice has no love and under season, don’t bother to try the Hau Gau nor siu mai, they are just expensive and nothing special. If I come back next time, I will just order loads of Xiao Lung Bao, for our monthly dim sum craving, we will just stick to our regular place
