Maximini Chinese Restaurant

Pros: Duck was fantastic. Food was of a good quality. Halal.

Cons: Service was poor. £4 for a diet coke is extortion. Absolutely zero understanding of the concept of gluten free. Waiters don't know what's in the dishes and basically provided next to nothing when it came to gluten free options. Do not come if you have any dietary requirements.

First restaurant I’ve ever been to with my husband as a newlyweds. We visited because some of the menu is halal. So big thanks to Jimmy choo! It was delicious. My husband and I visited again for the duck. He wished for Peking duck, but it wasn’t on the menu quite as he expected (since he is Chinese). But it was delicious. The curry and shrimp and service is great. I visited again as another milestone in my life was leaving the UK for good. And we chose Maximini again. Food is just delicious and environment is quiet. Food is brought out quickly and however you want it, whether in intervals. It’s worth visiting for sure. But for me it’s also sentimental. Also, it’s tucked away and just opposite Diana princess memorial park.

I’m gluten free (coeliac) and the waiter was VERY unaccommodating (he even asked if I had my medication just in case!). they didn’t offer (m)any choices and the waiter would say ‘not for you’ every time he put anything down including sauces, even though I’d told him, I was only eating my meal - very embarrassing. Also my ‘sweet and sour’ chicken was basically sugar water with chicken, I definitely did not enjoy my meal! Just to top it off, my coke was £3.80 which is just ludicrous! For a restaurant in central London, they should at least know what ingredients they put in their dishes! At least the food for the gluten-eaters was good! 🤷🏻‍♀️

Delightful and Delicious. Excellent service provided by JJ. An all round pleasant evening in a peaceful setting.

Local restaurant. OK food. Cheerful friendly staff.

We serve Halal options. Ask a member of staff for details.
