We were craving dumplings, this place popped up and we have zero regrets. The place looks a bit run down, but the food more than makes up for it. Everything we had was absolutely delicious - definitely close off your meal with the coconut buns because YUM!

Decided to try somewhere different and local for lunch with a friend. As per the reviews, we were looking forward to Panda.

Sadly the aubergine and fried tofu dishes were incredibly oily and quite salty. We had the beef mince dumplings which are made in house which were not good. The dough doesn’t taste good and the beef didn’t seem like great quality. The sweetcorn soup was okay but lacked flavour without the chicken. The jasmine tea was great.

As you can see from the photo we didn’t finish much as the food didn’t make us feel good. Won’t be returning.

Such a hidden gem! The siomai was incredible but so are the other dishes that we have ordered.

Highly recommended! Will definitely be back

Panda is the most amazing hidden gem i’ve ever found. Me and my family dine here at least 3 times a month. The dumplings are absolutely delicious (especially the steamed prawn and chive dim sum!!!) and the servers are so so lovely! If you are on the fence about going here, DO IT! You will never look back. Panda is a restaurant to watch…

Such a gem in Leytonstone. Handmade dim sum, very chilled out inside. The curry dumplings are delish and the people working there are friendly. You won't be disappointed by any of your choices. 💗
