The best choices in the region for authentic Cantonese dim sum. You could find more special dim sum if you visit here on Sunday, including Crispy Fried Dough Stick, Egg Custard Tarts, Char Siu Pastries etc. The deep fried cuttlefish cakes are really recommended. Staff are generally nice and price is
1st time visiting, lovely family run traditional Chinese restaurant. Beautiful food and great staff. We was looked after by tony and he told us about the restaurants history and recommended a steamed sponge dessert which was delicious. Thank you for a great night.
We had the most fabulous meal here last night.
Every dish was cooked to perfection, but the Dim Sum and the fresh, (gigantic) crab were particularly amazing!
The service couldn't have been any better, we had the perfect evening, highly recommended!
What an incredible place!
We enjoyed the food and the service was excellent. Very friendly and considerate. Also acessible for people in a wheelchair (But the toilet is upstairs).
We visited this restaurant last month. We traveled from the US and only at Southend on sea for 1 night. We went there for dinner and ended up returning the next afternoon for lunch before we left Southend on sea because we really liked the food. We ordered congee, rice and noodles, and some dim sum.
Dim sum at the beach.
Service was great and the food was even better. I was really impressed by the homemade deep fried squid cake and the fried turnip cake in XO sauce.
Had a light lunch and then off to walk the beach.
Great restaurant that serves dim sum and it was good dim sum!
Dim sum was really tasty, only negative was the prawn dumplings. The pastry was damaged. Service was really good. Definitely will go back.
Lived in Southend all my life and this was my first visit to this restaurant and won't be my last. Service, food atmosphere was amazing. The food was fresh and delicious. We didn't book and it is reservations only but they managed to fit us in which was amazing. When we left the restaurant was full.
The dim sum there was surprisingly delicious, in fact in my opinion it is much better than most in London. We went there for late lunch on a lovely weekend, the door said "reservation only", but we tried our luck as it wasn't too busy around 2pm, the owner gave us a table. Staff was friendly and p
Went as a party of 14 on a Friday night before a wedding in a nearby town. Some of the best chinese food i've had & not one person had a single complaint. Tony also looked after us with the Baileys at the end of the night!
We eat here frequently. Whether you want somewhere for date night or a special celebration, the Pearl Dragon will satisfy you. This is THE best Chinese restaurant in town. The food is superb with loads of choice and the service is fantastic!
+ beautifully presented food.
+ Prices may seem high but for what you get it is worth it.
+ Great variety of seating choices.
+ Calm ambiance, professional feel, very helpful Chinese waiters.
- unless you are from Southend, you may find it's a little off the beaten track as it's location isn't cent
Been coming here since I was about 6 years old and it’s still the best Chinese in the area by far!
Am gutted the takeaway has shut next door but appreciate with prices and inflation it had to close.
The Dim sum menu is awesome (on par with Chinatown in London) and I also love the roast duck 🦆. The
Fantastic fresh dim sum, the XO fried turnip cake and cheung fun were phenomenonal. Very friendly and attentive staff
