Tao Tao Ju - Chinese Restaurant Leicester Square

Wanted to try dim sum so badly and I wasn’t disappointed going to Tao Tao Ju, the assortment of dim sum available it’s quite extensive and delicious, the atmosphere of the restaurant is also really nice, the waitresses are very friendly, the only thing is I had to wait for sometime to get my food, but it was worthy

Recommended from trip advisor to food podcasts. i heard really good things about Tao Tao ju in Chinatown. After having bad buffet after bad buffet I needed some love on a plate and thought this would be the place to get it.
I was wrong, to my disappointment I was served very mediocre dishes. With the best being bbq mixed meats and rice.
The chicken chow mein was standard and the crispy chilly beef was below the standard that I expect and have had better from my local and a lot cheaper than £16 too!
It wasn’t all bad. The service was great and staff friendly and helpful.
the branded crockery, dinnerware and cutlery a very nice touch also.
I left underwhelmed

Average food. Was really forward to a great chinese food experience but this one was average. Atmosphere and service was average.
Portion size was good and it had decent vegetarian options too.

We went here for dumplings on a Saturday evening - best to book in advance as it is quite popular. We sat in the backroom which is very light but not as traditional as what you see from the street. All the food was delicious, the best are the Baos. There’s a minimum of 15£ per person to pay, which is easily reached. Great to try

We had the best dim sum in our lives here 🫶🏽 recommend EVERYTHING specially. My mum loves pork puff pastry and prawn cheung fun. For me, I love everything. I promise you won’t be disappointed by this restaurant.

Generally a safe bet for consistency in good food. Today we went for dim sum and the quality was good! ‘Crystal clear’ coloured rice pasta covering the prawn dumplings - not white and mushy…the deep fried taro cubes with XO paste and egg and chilli - my favourite dish! Udon seafood - pretty fresh tasting and no fishy after taste, good quality Udon. And most importantly Hot! (Temp wise) the fried ghost in Cheung Fun….the ghost was crispy and not a soggy mess! Hallelujah! Also the staff were very honest in telling us we had over paid when we split the bill. They didn’t pretend we had been generous in tipping
