Little Green is a Vietnamese and Xi’an restaurant at 8 Dockyard Lane in Canary Wharf. Its contemporary riverside setting works for business lunches, dinners with friends and quieter meals away from the busiest parts of the financial district.
The menu draws on two distinct regional traditions. Vietnamese cooking brings freshness through herbs, vegetables and carefully balanced dressings, while the food of Xi’an contributes deeper spice, warming aromas and more robust savoury combinations.
Ingredients and seasonings sourced from the regions behind the menu help the kitchen retain a clear sense of place. Small bites and larger dishes make it possible to build a shared meal or choose an individual course, with contrasting textures keeping the table varied.
Cocktails and other drinks support both lunch and evening service in the elegant dining room. Little Green is a useful choice for guests who want to explore the relationship between Vietnamese and northwestern Chinese flavours in a polished but approachable setting.
