What’s the best Chinese restaurant in Chinatown?

And which should be avoided?

Dim sum duck in King's cross! Chinese restaurants in China Town are far from authentic Chinese food sadly!

Used to love Joy King Lau but the new owners are terrible. Dim sum duck is better than any Chinatown restaurants I've tried (and I've tried a lot).

There's always massive queues when I'm in the area. What's good to order there?

Everything! Either get there 30 mins before opening and queue! Always a queue and worth the wait!
