8 Hanway Place, London, W1T 1HD

The only Chinese restaurant to be awarded a Michelin star, Hakkasan is the brainchild of Wagamama-owner Alan Yau. Catering for lunch and evening meals, Hakkasan serve an extensive variety of eloquently prepared gastronomic Chinese delights such as lobster tail served with sliced orchids and strawberries or scallop shu mai with tobiko. The restaurant itself is decorated with authentic Chinese armouries which all add to that authentic Oriental feel. They now boast their own bar called Ling Ling which offers cocktails and their legendary dim sum.

Reviews for Hakkasan

... if what you're looking for is somewhere smart, dark, with a very cool interior and perfect ambience that makes great cocktails.

If you're visiting the restaurant which quite good if a bit pricey make sure you book way in advance - especially for a Friday or Saturday night.

OK. The 5 star rating is for the cocktails. They are, without a doubt the best (other than in Zakudia) that I have had in London. Brilliant.

The food is good but like Sokratis points out both drinks and food are expensive.

Brilliant ambience and decor though and perfect if you're on your way out in the West End. Dress code is ok, no trainers but jeans are alright. If you are just going to be bar you don't need to book in advance, if you want a table I'd recommend it.

Cocktails = Thumbs Up...

I think this place is great for special occasions or business dinners, as it is pretty pricey. The place is always busy and fully booked, hence can be crowded. For those of you who like Zuma or Cocoon, you would like this place! The food is very tasty, especially their "dim sum". Also the coctails are highly recommended.

I love Hakkasan! The food is delicious and the place very very nice. The bar is nice as well. Not cheap but it also depends on what you order (especially for wines). Excellent for special occasions or to impress a customer.

Nice food and amazing cocktails. Very pricey though. Save it for a special occassion
