Taste Of China Angel N1 - London

We had only one reservation to show that they were closed. I understand that they are closed to christmas, but I think they should at least update their reservations. we just showed up to see a sign on the door that they are actually closed. it was too late to get somewhere else a reservation as we had our 1 year old son with us.

TLDR, Not all dishes meet my expectation, but I give it 5 stars mainly because of their dry-wok and some other dishes which are really impress me. Had ordered their dry-wok numerous times. Everything has been sizzled to spicy perfection. Mouth might go numb from the heatwave of peppercorn, but I just cant help myself to indulge in the 2nd round. 5 stars dishes: Their Sweet Sour Pork Tenderloin, Sliced beef lungs and Ox tongue in Chilli Sauce also impress me. 4 stars: all you can eat hot pot, reasonable priced and good range of selection. Others: not impress, some even not meet my expectation. All in all, it is worth to try if you know what you want to eat.

We ordered their takeaway before and have always been pleased with the quality and taste (we love their dry wok 干锅 dishes), but it was our first time to eat in the restaurant yesterday. Everything tasted very fresh, full of flavour yet not too salty. We had Mouth watering chicken 口水鸡 , my personal favourite of the night; Fish fragrant aubergine 鱼香茄子 , great balance of flavours; Morning glory with garlic 蒜蓉空心菜 , which I highly recommend, and Spicy frog legs 香辣馋嘴蛙 , which was nice although I 'm not sure that the very many aubergine pieces worked particularly well in this dish... But, the best of all was how lovely the staff were so warm, friendly and attentive, very kind people and very pleasant, we will certainly go there again. So happy to have such a good Chinese restaurant in Islington, we highly recommend it.

The best hotpot in London. All you can eat hot pot at £23.8pp. There were so many varieties you can choose from including crab and prawns. All ingredients are super fresh; staff welcoming; interior is clean and well furnished. Highly recommend ;

We got the King Prawn noodles, the Dumpling in chilli oil, sweet and sour chicken and rice. It was amazingly delicious and we would recommend this restaurant. The service was fantastic as they checked if we were okay and filled our glasses of water without us even asking! 10/10
