Amazing food, really amazing and funny manager or server best I’ve ever seen, and incredible attention to detail for vegans by multiple staff members who warned us multiple times that certain items we ordered weren’t vegan. A bit pricey but very worth it. Inside is much prettier than outside area imo. Got the vegan duck pancakes, spicy vegan dumplings, and vegan laziji spicy chicken.
Haven't been here since COVID, but decided to book a table for a family meal on a Saturday night. We were seated straight away on time. Be warned the menu is very large with plenty of dishes. Every dish we tried was fantastic and really well cooked - no complaints at all! Service really good, the only slight negative was we were seated in the outside extension part, was a cold evening but there were halogen heaters above each table, but tricky to get temp just right. Highly recommended going, one of the best if not best Chinese in Birmingham! Parking: Research your parking options prior, if you are travelling by car. However, recommended travelling by train.
Another fabulous lunch at Chung Ying's our favourite Chinese restaurant. As ever the service was excellent with each dish to our liking. We always order far too much but then take home the food left over. A long lunch enjoyed with red wine and then an Uber home.Food: 5/5
Visited here after going to the hippodrome. The server was super friendly. He gave us complimentary drinks for the wait time and just kept checking in and making sure we had everything we needed. We started our meal off with 4 starters, Vegan Yuk Sung, Peking Ribs, Crispy Aromatic Duck and Chicken Yuk Sung. As I don’t eat meat, I can’t talk on the meat options but the Vegan Yuk Sung was super flavourful and piping hot. The mains I had included Vegan Crispy Chilli Beef and Vegan Sweet and Sour Chicken. The meat eaters also had the same and Lemon Chicken; they said it was some of the best chinese food we’ve had in a while. I don’t get to have many vegan options when it comes to dining out etc and this is better than I thought it would be! It was exactly how I remembered the meat versions being like. Rice and noodles were also flavourful and a big portion too! 10/10! I would 100% recommend.
Bit more expensive but in my view worth it. Food was excellent: fresh, served piping hot and fast. Ambience is your typical bustling Chinese restaurant, busy and a bit chaotic with the decor still the same as 30 years ago. If you want delicious Chinese food and dim sum, I would really recommend giving this a try. Maybe book in advance to avoid being turned away.
Sat in the heated and covered outdoor area by choice. Chinese music coveres Lovely choice of food - we went for dim sum Great selection and flavours. Particularly like the spicy tangy dip some come with
The food is authentically Cantonese style Chinese. A lot of sweet flavours which is so familiar to my childhood. Would highly recommend. I had sui Mai, char sui boa and prawn spring rolls. Delicious and will definitely recommend. Vegetarian options: There are clearly marked vegetarian and vegan options. My husband is vegan and he had a huge menu to chose from.
I really expected Chung Ying to be amazing, it's right in the center of China Town in Birmingham and is surrounded by beautiful lights and artwork, everything has such an authentic vibe about it. Unfortunately the food isn't close to the rest, I felt it was very bland and the service was very slow and not catering to our party at all. Hopefully this can improve. The place isn't wheelchair or stroller friendly as it has stairs to get in, they do however have high chairs.
How did I not find this sooner! What a truly amazing place for Chinese / Cantonese food. We had a range of starters including crispy duck, ribs and I had the ying yang wings which I could not believe were gluten free they were THAT good! Mains were Curry, Szechuan Chicken, Chicken & Beef in Black Bean Sauce, a variety of rices and my gluten free chicken Thai style and everything was utterly delicious We were all wowed and would all revisit. Highly recommended. Dietary restrictions: Gluten free options are extensive and delicious. Loved everything I had :
So good I came back after a week after to try different things off the menu. Yo! The food is absolutely delicious! Kid-friendliness: The first time I visited, a family was celebrating their baby's 100 days ceremony. It was very beautiful
