Royal China Chinatown is a Cantonese restaurant at 30 Gerrard Street in the heart of London’s Chinatown. The dining room places authentic Chinese cooking in a modern industrial setting and welcomes everything from a relaxed dim sum lunch to a generous evening meal. Each Royal China branch has its own identity, and the Chinatown chefs complement established favourites with seasonal dishes created specifically for this location.
Dim sum is central to the experience, with steamed prawn dumplings, pork and prawn siu mai, prawn and chive dumplings and delicate cheung fun offering a broad range of textures. Fried dumplings, spring rolls and honey roast pork puffs add crisp and flaky contrasts. Custard buns, egg tarts and other sweet pieces can extend a leisurely selection shared across the table.
The wider menu moves through soups, roasted meats, seafood, poultry, beef, pork, bean curd and vegetables. Diners can explore dishes such as aromatic duck, sweet and sour pork, Kung Pao chicken, beef with ginger and spring onion or braised bean curd with mushrooms. Fresh seafood may be steamed or prepared with black bean, garlic, chilli or ginger and spring onion, while rice and noodle dishes turn several smaller plates into a complete meal.
Daytime and evening dim sum menus make the restaurant flexible for different occasions, and regularly refreshed chef specials provide a reason to look beyond the familiar choices. Chinese tea is a natural partner for dumplings and roasted dishes. Beer, wine, spirits and soft drinks provide further options for celebrations, family gatherings and unhurried dinners on Gerrard Street.
