We were staying at The hotel and having arrived early evening on a long flight wanted a quick meal so we decided upon then in house restaurant.

In many ways this idea was a mistake, as the ambiance, staff and food were so good we ended up having a long evening and ended up falling into bed.

The food is top quality, inventively cooked with excellent ingredients and portion size that for us meant only two courses, which was a shame as there looked to be some fine desserts.

In reality this is fine dinning at its best, and whilst this comes with a price tag, certainly a reasonable one.

We had lunch here on our last day in Beijing. The food was excellent and the service was impeccable. I truly enjoyed the experience.

Very nice interior (restaurant is in the Waldorf Astoria hotel).

Nice menu card - we went for the 4-course menu.

The quality is nice/good, but we had higher expectations in advance.

Good experience in total, but when quality/price is added up, we will not return as there are too many other opportunities to explore, but certainly a very nice one-off visit.

Definitely a welcoming and relaxing atmosphere with nice oldies playing at the background... for a moment, we forgot we were in China.

Service was warm, friendly but we were rather confused by the way the cutleries were set coz we weren't sure why the knives were set to the left.

So now! Let's get straight to business. We started with a delectable egg, asparagus and ham salad, followed by their award winning Jing Roll for starters.

Genius was the only word I could think of, especially when the Wagyu & mushrooms seamlessly melted into the creaminess of the sweet potatoes and herbed okra.

For mains I chose the lobster and scallop ravioli and hubs took the 250gm angus. Both were generously portioned and cooked to perfection.

We had a bit of disappointment with their potato gratin but they took it in their hands to prepare a sweet apology in the form of their signature Banoffee.

The chocolate soufflé fondant was lovely, but I would've loved a larger scoop of their light and superlicious vanilla sorbet to complement the well sized soufflé.

Price was extremely fair given the quality, creativity and service. We'll definitely be back to try the rest of their extensive menu. Thank you for the great night out :)
