Stylish and tasty, just watch those portion sizes.

Shan Shui Social is the kind of chic modern Chinese restaurant that gives off serious vibes, with a hygiene score of 5/5. The decor is on point, like you’d want to take Instagram shots of your dish before you even taste it. The food? Absolutely delectable, with dishes like roast duck noodles and char siu stealing the spotlight. Ariel was blown away, claiming it was one of the best meals she’s had in London, and she’s not wrong.

However, not every dish is perfection; some portions could leave you a bit hungry if you’re not careful. But if you’re looking for a place to impress friends or have a memorable meal before hitting the town, this is it. Just be prepared for those tiny plates that make you wonder if you should order twice.
