When they eventually arrived, we ordered mixed thai starters for everyone. These were excellent. We then had chicken panang, pork pad kee mow, beef pad thai, and a duck stir fry dish with beans to share between the four of us with rice. The pad kee mow, or drunken noodles (which had been my choice), were fantastic and the panang was pretty special, the other dishes were also good. The bill was £67 for four of us, this is probably a bit less than the average bill for four would be as we only had three beers between us (all me) but still great value.

Clearly feeling overwhelmed. Placed an online order that was projected to be ready at 8:10 pm. I got there at about 8:15pm and the woman that greeted me was pretty calm cool and collected even though the place was JAM PACKED- with several people waiting outside to pick up delivery orders or waiting to be seated. She was multitasking for sure- taking orders at tables, dealing with Uber Eats folks, as well as people coming in for a table, and me picking up my online order. It was a bit of chaos but she said to give her 2 mins. I said I'll give you 5 trying to be cool because she was working hard. About 13 mins later a young woman (20s or so) came over and asked me to step outside. I politely told her 'that woman' (pointed in the nice lady's direction) said I could wait here, so I'd rather stay here to get my order. Based on her facial expression and the fact that she went to another employee to obviously complain about me - I wasn't going to budge - and get sent outside to be forgotten about. My order was given to me by the nice woman about 8:45pm- 35 mins after the time stated online. A bit aggravating for sure but thanked the nice lady for being so nice. Speaking from my personal and professional experience people can generally forgive a lot of things if the person they are dealing with is nice. All that to let you know that my family and I thought the food was pretty darn good. I will definitely get the chicken wings again as they were cooked perfectly and with just the right amount of crispness to them.

It's not a large restaurant - seats about 30 pax and I had no problem getting a seat for lunch on Sunday. But I have seen the place very busy even at 9pm on a Friday so it is popular. When I was there, most of the diners were Malaysian so clearly the food is authentic and the prices reasonable. And all this was true when I was there. I had nasi lemak Tukdin, oxtail soup, keropok and Ice Bandung - all Malaysian hawker staples / favourites. Food presentation was good and the food was tasty and authentic overall. The nasi lemak rice was particularly flavorful - full of coconut milk flavor, it had the right texture and basmati rice was used so the grains are drier and more discrete, giving a better mouthfeel. The keropok was crispy and tasted authentic, as did the ikan bills (fried anchovies) and fried chicken in the nasi lemak. The oxtail soup tasted exactly as it is in Malaysia with all the right spices and fried onions (which was FANTASTIC) and the meat was flavorful and 'fall off the bone' tender. Service was friendly if a little slow, but I think there's only 1 wait staff for all the patrons so be patient. All in all, a very pleasant experience and I would recommend coming here for a very inexpensive and authentic experience of Malaysian food in London. For Malaysians, definitely a must!

So flaky and tasty and you can choose how much spicy sauce, but it was too oily, any piece you ate your hands became super shiny. * Mee Goreng Mamak (£17.50) - 5 stars. So delicious.

Wanted something light as a takeaway at the end of a superhot day…read more There didn't seem to be any other Chinese places around Paddington, so requested the husband to pick up a takeaway from Chozen on his way home. The chicken Gyoza was very very good and we also loved the duck rolls. The sushi is the best that I have tasted in this neighbourhood. I'm not crazy about Udon, so I'm not surprised that I didn't like the noodles too much. The chicken Thai green curry had pineapple in it which was unusual, but not unpleasant. Actually the curry and rice was a great meal with some spicy chilli paste from my collection of sauces at home. Very fast service and husband said they were clean. I'll have to step into the location myself when I next walk past. Remember the rolls & Gyoza are best eaten hot, they lose all texture if you let them stand for too long. #LiveLifeLikeLDN
