I tried to get into this restaurant for sunday lunch but was merely offered a place on the waiting list!So i decided to try it midweek.I went there just after noon today.I found the interior to be stylishly decorated with staff that talked in hushed tones unlike the usual shouted commands of chinese restaurants.I ordered 4 dim sum which were slightly more expensive than they would be in Chinatown.Prawn & Pork dumplings,Chickens feet in black bean sauce,Vitenamese spring rolls and saugae and chicken on rice.I found all of the dishes to be tasty and of the right quantity.My bill including service and a pot of Chinese tea was £15.50.Not quite as good as The Lido which is alas shut at the moment.Unfortunately i cannot get in on a Sunday when i would most like to visit!

Food was not quite as outstanding as our last visit but it has a nice atmosphere and all the staff are very friendly - overall good value

We live (and I used to work) near the Phoenix, and return regularly. It's the usual largish Chinese restaurant, so don't expect a lot of charm, but the staff are helpful enough and the food is certainly better than most of Chinatown.

They do good Dim Sum at lunchtime (menus, not trolleys)

Visited Phoenix palace on a Tuesday night.
The restaurant was busy.Service efficient.
Food excellent,choice extensive.
The only slight negative thing was the staff do not smile that much.
On leaving the restaurant there was photographs of previous customers.This included many politicians,Gordon Ramsay,Tony Blair etc..
Say no more.
