Royal China Canary Riverside is a Cantonese restaurant at 30 Westferry Circus on the western edge of Canary Wharf. Its spacious dining room and large patio overlook the Thames, creating a composed setting for business lunches, family gatherings and evening meals. The restaurant combines the established Royal China style with seasonal dishes developed specifically by its own head chef and dim sum chef.
Dim sum is central to the experience and is best explored by sharing several baskets and plates. Steamed dumplings, buns, cheung fun and crisp fried specialities allow diners to move between delicate wrappers, seafood, meat and vegetables. Seasonal dim sum changes regularly, introducing new colours and fillings while the familiar Cantonese favourites remain available.
The full menu extends into soups, roast meats, live seafood, fish, poultry, beef, tofu and vegetable dishes. Rice and noodles make natural accompaniments, and set or tasting selections can help a larger table sample a broad range. Careful steaming, roasting and wok cooking preserve the individual texture of each ingredient while sauces add savoury depth without overwhelming it.
Chinese tea is a natural partner for dim sum and turns a busy lunch into a more leisurely occasion. Wine, spirits, soft drinks and seasonal fruit drinks provide further choices later in the day, with desserts completing the meal. A private dining room supports celebrations and business events, while the riverside patio gives this branch a distinctive sense of place within the Royal China group.
