    What a very, very special evening we had last night at Mr Chow. The food was delicious, impeccable, faultless; the wines delicious. The service however must really take pride of place. I had forgotten what it's like to be served so wonderfully professionally - and my party were in full agreement. Sadly, it is very rare these days to have restaurant service from people who take pride in their work and ensuring that guests have a good time. Yes, Mr Chow is expensive, but like the ad says - it's worth it.

    Excellent bday celebration. 4th time that we have been. Excellent food, very attentive service from Maria (from Brazill) and her team. I tend to go for my bdays and I am never disappointed. Their taste of Hakkasan deal is also value for money for a restaurant of this calibre. Thank you for making my birthday special.
