Quick Facts About China Red

China Red is a restaurant that has received a mix of positive and negative feedback. The strengths of China Red include its delicious food, attentive and helpful staff, and a great overall dining experience. The restaurant has been highly recommended by customers who had a wonderful evening and enjoyed the food. Additionally, the owner is described as nice and friendly, and the service and ambiance are praised.

One of the weaknesses pointed out by a customer is the restaurant's policy regarding babies and children making noise. The customer expressed disappointment and shock at the new terms and conditions that state if a baby makes any noise, the family would have to leave the restaurant and walk outside to calm the baby down. This customer felt that this policy contradicted the claim of being a family-friendly restaurant and interpreted it as discrimination. This incident suggests that China Red may not have a welcoming policy for families with young children, which could be seen as a weakness.

Another weakness mentioned by a customer who ordered takeout was the lack of plastic utensils provided. The customer felt that the staff should have asked if utensils were needed, and this oversight may have inconvenienced the customer. This suggests a potential lack of attention to detail in the restaurant's takeout service, which could be seen as a weakness.

The customer's comment about the dishes also highlights a weakness in terms of consistency. While they enjoyed the chicken satay, they found the green Thai curry to be a disappointment. They felt that the curry lacked real spices and fishy ingredients that are expected at the price tag. This inconsistency in the quality of dishes suggests that China Red may not always deliver consistent and exceptional food, which could be seen as a weakness.

Despite these weaknesses, the majority of comments express positive experiences at China Red. Customers praise the food, service, and overall ambiance of the restaurant. The positive feedback suggests that China Red is capable of offering a great dining experience.

In summary, the strengths of China Red include its delicious food, attentive staff, and positive dining experiences. However, weaknesses identified include the restaurant's policy regarding babies and children making noise, potential lack of attention to detail in the takeout service, and inconsistency in the quality of dishes. These weaknesses may impact the overall customer experience and should be addressed by the restaurant to ensure that it maintains its positive reputation.

Thanks for having us ????????????????

My wife and I have travelled to this restaurant on a few occasions from North London. Today we decided to book a table and asked if our table had a space for a pram, in response to my question the lady on the phone paused and proceeded to say ‘ um if your baby cries, can you take them out for a walk to calm them down’. I was speechless as this was the first time any restaurant and even China Red has made such ridiculous terms and conditions when booking a table. I kindly asked the lady to repeat herself as I was left confused, to which she repeated the new term and conditions. I then stated that i have visited the restaurant with my daughter many times and never received any complaints, nor ridiculous T&C. The lady proceed to explain over the Christmas period that they had received many complaints over babies/ children making noise, but emphasised that they are family friendly restaurant. Now are you really a family/ child friendly restaurant if you have specifically stated that if my baby makes one single noise I would have to leave the restaurant, quote “ walk up and down the street” in the cold , dark, winter evening/ night? I am sadden and shocked that you have made such new terms and conditions upon booking. Do you think as a mother , I would let my child scream down a restaurant? In fact in our previous visits to the restaurant you have complimented how well behaved my daughter was. I am disgusted! NOT A CHILD/ FAMILY RESTAURANT. Discrimination at it’s finest.

Never been here before and pleasantly surprised really lovely food, have struggled to find a decent local Chinese restaurant so will definitely make this our regular place now.

We have been going to China Red since it opened years ago in Brookmans Park. Still think it's the best restaurant of its type. Go. there but book first it's quite small. Does good takeaway too.

Have been to China Red a few times. The owner is really nice and friendly. Food is always delicious with good sized portions. Love the salt & pepper squid/prawns! Be warned, book a table because often busy (for a reason). Will be back soon!

Great Place, Best Chinese Food in the Area

Been there many Times and can only highly recommend

Great Service and Ambience

Mixed feelings for now, will try other dishes and adjust as needed.

I went for a take away.

I probably should have asked for plastic utensils. The staff should probably asked if I need them.

Chicken satay was quite good for a Chinese Restaurant in England. The sauce was noticeably different than what I remember from Malacca's and Georgetown's night markets, but still lightyears closer than typical English understanding of satay.

Green thai curry however turned out to be huge disappointment. It was purely, blandly hot. Zero real spices or fishy ingredients you should expect at this price tag.

Very nice place, staff always polite and the food always great!

The eating in experience not quite as good as the takeaway, but never disappointing!
