We were in London for a few days and we were really looking forward to eating in this restaurant. I had been previously many many years ago but not with my family. On arrival, we were ‘greeted’ by this sour bunch of three ladies, one who confirmed our reservation, one who took our coats and one who showed us to the table. We were put off by this but we were looking forward to our meal so we simply ignored this. Once we saw the exorbitant menu prices (around £29 per dish), we decided to just order a main course only to be asked by the waitress, “is that it? That’s all you are going to order?” What we decide to order is our choice and do not expect to be ‘judged’ by a waitress! Again, we decid...
Kaifeng is in a class of its own when it comes to kosher restaurants in London. It’s pricey though ask for their discount scratch card for your next visit as it gives 15-100pc off) but worth it. Food is fresh and tasty and service on fresh linen) attentive. Covid precautions are superb. The set menus are best value and we were very full after the mid-priced one £48 each). The main courses were wonderful. The Chinese tea was perfect and refills free and plentiful. Drinks are otherwise expensive. There’s an ok selection for vegetarians and a good fish selection but this is primarily a meat restaurant. The staff also dealt well with the inconsiderate behaviour of a small number of guests, unfor...
I have previously mentioned that I believe Kaifeng is perhaps the top kosher restaurant in London, occasionally marred by the rudeness of a small group of other diners. During our recent visit, we had the opportunity to experience the restaurant at its finest, and both us and our friends were highly impressed by the atmosphere, cuisine, and attentive service. They continue to prioritize Covid safety measures, including the requirement of face masks, hand sanitizer, and temperature checks. I appreciate the calming decor of woods and paintings, along with the plush carpeting that allows for conversation without shouting. The use of proper linens adds to the upscale experience. Additionally, th...
I would give zero stars if possible for Kaifeng Glatt Kosher Chinese restaurant. It was a terrible experience! They claimed it was a "Place for a Simcha", but that is definitely not the case. The duck was extremely dry and tasted terrible, and the eggplants were undercooked. The service was consistently bad from start to finish, possibly the worst customer service in London. Overall, it was a very unpleasant dining experience. To top it off, the bill was extremely high. In conclusion, Kaifeng should be known for being tasteless, expensive, and unpleasant. Save your money and don't dine here!

We went for a family lunch on 25th December. The service and food were excellent. The restaurant was full but not crowded. The decor was light and elegant. The service was wonderful, despite there being 4 sittings, we were not rushed and the food for each course arrived in good time. We ordered from the set menu and supplemented it with some a la carte items. Nothing was too much trouble for the team serving us they were very attentive but not intrusive. I can highly recommend this restaurant and will definitely add it to my list of favourites.
We have been coming to this restaurant since the late 1980s. This visit was very disappointing. The prices had gone up substantially the portions had shrunk inversely to the increase in the price. The signature dish, fried chilli beef was All batter and had no meat in it at all, at least that could be identified . The noodles were mediocre. The other two main portions were very good. Prices have gone up generally, but this restaurant has taken advantage of the fact.
My wife and I went to this restaurant this evening for our wedding anniversary. A special restaurant for a special anniversary. Everything was amazing from start to finish at Kaifeng. The staff are so welcoming and they really do care. The food was out of this world. It was absolutely amazing. Even the decor was very impressive. We will definitely be back there. Thank you Kaifeng for making our anniversary so special
I was there last week ordered with 5 other people 6 dishes they were perfect and not dry as others have commented! Staff were great! Mr Hans was perfect! Ambience was excellent. We received a discount! I believe without a doubt this is the best chinese kosher restaurant in England!

The soups were fantastic, particularly the chicken sweet corn and wonton soups. However, we should have stopped there. The duck was chewy, and the noodles lacked flavor.
Service was excellent .Food was delicious and plentiful. Prices were a bit high but well worth paying.
