We LOVE Panda Dim Sum. Its true the signage and branding aren't quite as modern as other restaurants but DO NOT BE PUT OFF. This is easily some of the best Chinese Dim Sum and Dumplings in East London. The staff are extremely friendly and the food is next level. We happily enjoy our food with a soft drink but you can BYOB if you like a glass of wine or beer at dinner. If you're a local and haven't been yet, shame on you!!!!

One of, if not, my favourite place to eat in London. Been coming here for 5 years. Great value. Amazing food. All hand made. Plus it’s bring your own booze!

The owners are lovely. They even opened up for me once because I needed my fix. A true hidden gem. So much so I’ve been reluctant to write a review as part of me wants it to remain hidden.

Panda is one of my favourite places in Leytonstone. Family run, the food here is authentic and tasty.

It’s also BYOB which means you can spend hours drinking and eating delicious dumplings.

Super friendly service. Food was delicious and good prices. Dumpling were amazing

So usually the second time you visit a restaurant is not always as good especially when your first visit was exceptional. In this case I have to say my expectations were high and they did not disappoint again. The same high standard of food preparation all the way. I have eaten dim sum at many famous places in China town and many high profile central locations but this place completely outshines them all. Very fresh and very tasty! This has now become my Go-To place for dim sum and it should be yours!
