Wow, this restaurant is a real gem. We travelled over 2 hours to eat here, and it was worth it! Being gluten intolerant, the choices in the UK for a tasty Chinese dinner are few and far between. I am so thankful to Amie for creating a space that is safe for Coeliac and intolerant sufferers. We also had the chance to meet Amie and her wonderful dog Koto. What a kind and lovely woman, she shared her story with us and the reason she began Naturally Chinese, it was very inspiring to see someone in the hospitality industry understand the importance of food preparation safety and I wish her continued success. The service and food were incredible and our waitress was very attentive, she recommended some of her favourite dishes, and we were not disappointed. I would recommend the smoked shredded chicken as a must try, it had a beautifully crisp outer coating whilst retaining great moisture on the chicken, and the taste, WOW! Delicious. Thank you Amie and the Naturally Chinese team.

Service disappointing and well overpriced!! £96 bill for 2 x mains and 2 starters! Will not be returning. It was a cold evening yet the heating wasn't on. We all kept our coats on to keep warm. Awful experience.

We went with high hopes and the food was ok- but the dim sum was completely overpriced- up to £10 for 3 dumplings. 1/2 duck was almost £40 (and v dry/ not crispy) and the noodles (small portion) £17 . We were hoping the food would be incredible, hence the price but it was just ok. Better to go to China Town for the real deal and better value for money.

The clay pot with the silken tofu are absolutely delicious as well as the classics like sweet and sour chicken. We have been coming here for a few years and it is always nice. The fact that they offer gluten-free menu is also very inclusive, would recommend.

We were planning an 7:30 dinner but due to a late flight arrival we had to postpone till 8:30. My partner had some difficulty changing the booking but it seemed to work out ok in the end. When we arrived there was just one other table occupied. We opted for the set menu for 2, priced at £88, including some prosecco or wine. When we finished the main course, we were told that our choice of desert (mango sorbet) was no longer available (at this time we were the only people left in the restaurant)... As we decided not to have desert, we were assured that the cost of desert would be deducted from the bill.... Then the bill arrived... Our £88 dinner was now costing us £89. Ok, not a big difference, but why? And where was the deduction for not having desert? And on top of that we had to pay a £24.32 service charge!!! Absolutely outrageous!!!

I simply loved it. Excellent service, and good quality. All staff are prepared to deal with food allergy and they provide recommendation when asked.Dietary restrictions: Vegetarian and gluten free available.

We really wanted to enjoy our meal, particularly as they offer a gf menu, but we were really disappointed at the quality of the dishes for the price - the flavours just weren't there and we left much of our meal uneaten. The service was excellent, but we won't be returning.

We arrived as a party of 5 and was greeted by a lovely polite member of staff, seated and served promptly.While enjoying our ice cold beers we decided on dinner.The pace of service was just right and our starters came out very hot, the pork and prawn dim sum was amazing along with the smoked chicken. Some of the best I've had after eating in over 30 chinese restaurants.The beef fillet and asparagus was flavoured perfectly and so good one of my friends ordered another to take home to his wife.Overall we had a great experience here and will be recommending to friends and family.

Went for dinner..really friendly and helpful service. Really good food. It seems that this is the only exclusively Gluten free Chinese restaurant in the UK. Quite relaxing ambience and very nice loos (always a good indication of well organised restaurant). It took me an hour to drive to but I am certainly going again. Highly recommended.

If you’re looking for authentic dim sums, this is not the place you should go! The shrimp dumplings were sweet. Crispy squids are like those frozen one from supermarkets.

Do not go to this restaurant, it’s a rip off. Very small portion. I paid £13.90 for a cheung fun where its £6 in most other good Chinese Restaurants. A soup, dim sum, chow mein, and a wantan total bill £52.

Incredible food, both gluten free and normal. And really lovely staff. A new favourite spot!

Delicious food. Nice atmosphere. Excellent service. And gluten free Chinese food is a real bonus (and normies can't even taste it)

So good to find a restaurant with authentic Chinese food. Last time I had something as good as this was at my childhood home town. Finally I have found a restaurant that serves beautiful food and amazing cocktails. The owner even made my sister an I and unique cocktail as we wanted a something different. She made a unique lychee cocktail. Amy was amazing to us and most importantly very honest about what is in the food and what is not. Refreshingly honest and very kind service. I will be recommending this place to all my friends and family for sure.

I don't think I've ever been to a restaurant where I felt so ripped off. The service was OK but it was so over priced for what it was. It's great that they cater for gluten free but most places do now so it's not a selling point. The food was just terrible. My local take away was so much better. Whet to go you a restaurant you expect more but the food was bland and tasteless. If you want something special dont bother. This place is the boiled rice of restaurants.
