About this restaurant

  • Good for groups
  • Good for special occasions
  • Neighbourhood gem
Located in the heart of London's bustling Chinatown district, Plum Valley is a sleek Cantonese restaurant that stands out along Gerrard Street for its minimalist style and smart wooden, slate and stone interior. Perfect for business lunches, pre-theatre meals and post-sightseeing snacks, Plum Valley Chinese restaurant is conveniently located near Piccadilly Circus and the West End without being touristy, and the restaurant boasts its own conference facilities well suited for private events and meetings. Dumpling lovers will go gaga for the scallop dumpling, whisker black cod roll, and we also recommend the pillowy cream custard bun, Mongolian fillet steak, and the grilled sea bass with ginger and spring onion. Or just take your waiter's advice and make a survey of the sublime dim sum or the excellent a la carte. Smart enough for dates, yet friendly to groups, Plum Valley is a great must-try restaurant in Chinatown.

    We were looking forward to our booking, but unfortunately we were disappointed. The table we were seated was next to some really noisy, obnoxious group that did not consider anyone else. The one shared starter we ordered did not taste nice or authentic, and was ridiculously expensive. Service was slow and inattentive. It wasn’t the nice restaurant experience we were hoping for - felt more like a fast food service, but as soon as the starter was served, no server was anywhere to be seen. We did not enjoy any part of it.

    Great setting and service highly recommended! However one tiny observation could be some of the food wasn’t quite hot enough after we served it up! Food quality of what was served was outstanding though thank you so much for making my wife’s birthday on Saturday

    Food was great as was the service. You're also able to book for dim sum on a Saturday which is not always an option at other restaurants. Pretty noisy but that's to be expected on a weekend lunch. Been here several times before and would definitely come again.
