Really bad services. The stuff constantly persuade us to pay for their tips. We decided not to pay. They told us next time to eat out if we don't want to pay them tips. It was a family gathering before my wedding ceremony the next day. Brilliant service and attitude!

Not sure why there are so many negative reviews. This is an old school HK restaurant so expect old school HK service. Rude to some but quite normal and in fact good, in my opinion! Food has improved exponentially since the mass exodus of HKers to London and it’s reflected in higher prices. I don’t bother with Chinatown anymore as dim sum and evening dishes are excellent here. Tasty, well executed and consistently good.

The food was some of the best Chinese food we’ve had in the U.K.! Fresh and tasty. Will be coming back and bringing more people!

Delicious food but service was slow.

Good food but some of the rudest, most arrogant staff around. One rude old Chinese man serving us dumped the bill on the table and then returned 10 seconds later with the card machine. When I told him we weren't ready to pay he decided to get all rude quoting some nonsense about company policy. I reminded him that he was living in the United Kingdom and needed to learn some basic good manners if his mother and father hadn't taught him any, if you want good food,l and can tolerate the rudeness then go along, But if you want polite service, you're probably better off going elsewhere.

Had dim sum this afternoon with friends since last year. Foods quality is not up to the standard, the fried dry ho fun is unbelievably poor quality, worst than a take away shop. The most annoying is the assumed lady boss who taken payment. We asked the bills to be split and she said can”t do it because of weekend. We were curious what kind of rule it is and she said we have to follow the rule. In fact when we were seated there is no advice of such rule nor any notice being shown at the entrance or menu at all. If because of busy and take extra time (not full at all while we finished) she just need to employ more staff to get it done or to have extra card machine, in my opinions. China town chinese restaurant even busy than here but never have such excuses. This is against customer right and the local custom without appropriate advice. Dont think we will come back any more to this restaurant despite it is closer and not enjoy the overall service at all.

Not bad at all, the dim sum is pretty delicious compared to what you get in central London. Not the best of course but good enough. Always a good stop on the way to Brighton. Would come again!

Though I do not go and eat at Tai Tung often, the times I did I always enjoyed the food there, and I would have given a 5 star rating. But this time I'm afraid I am very disappointed. We were a family consisting of 6 adults and a child. My verdict of the dishes ordered were that one was so salty that we could not eat, some others were also salty, we had to have quite a lot of drinks of Coca Cola, Fanta and the child almost drank a can of Fanta. We could not eat the lot so had to take the rest home. This opinion is agreed with the rest of the family. My bill came to over £200.
The appetisers/ starters were great! However, staff were very judgy on how much we ordered for starters (it was just duck & pancakes, mixed hors d’oeuvres, and chicken satay) for 3 adults. The mains were a massive let down - things were burnt others tasted off. Wish we stopped at appetisers.

This is a nice little Chinese restaurant that has been next to wingyip/in the croydon area for the longest time!
The food always does hit home for us, and The dishes always comes out so flavourful!
Our favourite is the special sauce prawns! Defo worth a try!!

The food was ok but the service was so disgusting. If you are not british they will treat you like a rubish. In addition, they will ask for service charge but their service was so bad.. i would highly recommend SANXIA chinese restaurant and TONGXIN restaurant.

Really good Chinese food, large portions, and not so expensive
