Wu Chinese Cuisine - Hackney

The reviews of this restaurant are terrible! I can't believe what I am reading. The food here is delicious, with a variety of options including mini octopus, tofu, crab meat, pork, lamb, enoki mushrooms, and vegetables. The broth is amazing, especially when mixed with the spicy broth. There is a wide selection of sauces available to customize your meal, such as chopped garlic, crushed peanuts, coriander, and peanut sauce. The staff is welcoming and polite, and they are helpful if you are unsure about anything. The atmosphere is cozy and warm. I don't understand why some reviews are negative - the service here is excellent. Don't let those reviews deter you from trying this place out! Just remember to have basic table manners, be kind, and clean up after yourself. If you do that, you will have a great experience.

Please tell me why the bone is black this food is obviously not fresh I will never go back again customer service poor and food with no taste

An hour and half later we didn't. When they took the order they said 40-60 minutes. After waiting an hour I rang to find out where the order was and was told my order is next. What have they been doing for an hour when the food should be more or less with me? On querying this I was laughed at down the phone. Yes, LAUGHED AT. But to then have to wait ANOTHER 25 minutes is totally unacceptable. We certainly will NOT be using this takeaway again. Delivered almost an hour and half later so sent it back.

I have tried dumplings from several Chinese restaurants in London, but none have been as poor as the ones I had at this particular restaurant. Although they were clearly homemade, they fell apart easily and the meat inside was burnt and tasted bland. I couldn't even finish them. I would prefer to eat cooked frozen dumplings over these. On the bright side, the chow mein was decent.

The Staff were very friendly and welcoming, they explained how everything worked and what the dishes they served. Food was amazing! Will be going again soon
