Harden's survey result
Summary
Over four decades since its launch, this “longstanding Brighton Chinese” with sea views is still “one of the most authentic Cantonese around”, and accordingly something of a local institution; the vast enterprise is especially rated for its dim sum, and is often filled to capacity with Chinese families, making booking essential.
Summary
This “long-established, proper Chinese restaurant” (est. 1980), “right near the Brighton seafront”, features “highly attentive service” and is “routinely full of people of Chinese heritage”. “Go for the dim sum – and stay for the kung pao prawns”.
For 33 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).
