"This is such a mixed bag review and really hope that the owners of this restaurant read this as it is really important for basic customer service. We had a table of 6 booked for 9pm, as much as I know this is late they were very willing to take our booking. We arrived and said that we had a booking and this young woman huffed and puffed at us. I thought there and then this isn’t going to work out too well! She showed us to the table and literally chucked the menus to the middle of the table. We couldn’t be any more of an inconvenience to her. Two of our friends were going to be 10 minutes late and let her know, as you can imagine this went down like a sack of spuds! She said that the rest of us should order and they can order when they arrive. We decided to go with the Hong Kong set menu. Our friends arrived at 21:08 and told them that they can only order a main, no starter. I we were out to celebrate my husband’s birthday so really didn’t want to make a fuss as only felt it would fall on deaf ears. As our friends didn’t want to make a fuss either they just went along with it and she stood over them the whole time until they ordered. Our starters arrived and they are huge portions, so could easily share with our friends that were late, but their main came out at the same time. It was so frustrating. The food is absolutely beautiful, but the service completely spoiled it for us. I am so shocked that we were treated like that. The only reprieve we had was another young waiter and he was really good and made sure that we got drinks throughout the time we were there. We have been to the taipan on many occasions and never had such awful service, it really is such a shame."

Fantastic find, amazing dim sum, I think home made, tastes like it is, portion size large, had to do a takeaway, the restaurant was almost full of Chinese people always a good sign, very friendly staff, enjoy

Family meals. Authentic cuisine, good service. Enjoyed the dim sum and accompanying dishes. Prompt service. Was with friends from Hong Kong and they commented on the quality of the food and the atmosphere- highly recommended

Lunch of hot and sour soup, which was excellent, then fried Singaporean vermicelli which was good with lovely plump king prawns. All for 25 quid which I thought was pretty decent value. Service, which I see has been criticised elsewhere, was fine

Great place to relax and enjoy the meal Friendly staff Had a crispy duck which was excellent We were not impressed with the fish curry it did not look appealing it looked as if a fried fish was immersed into a spicy sauce Overall it was great experience

This is the 4th visit between post Christmas 23 and 10 Feb 24; previous three visits was for Dim Sum. We went as a group of six for A La Carte dinner. All the dishes were very good except one which was OK, but that was a mixed vegetable dish, so no high expectations anyway. Service was excellent. Food came out orderly with no stopping and starting. Even a late addition was speedily prepared. Staff busy but receptive. Just a hint: You should judge a Chinese Restaurant by the Chinese clientele. If the restaurant isn't up to scratch, they wouldn't return.

Went for pre theatre dinner and it was a good choice. The food was very good and service was efficient. We had the pre show special menu for 2 people and there was lots to eat. We were both hungry but still more than sufficient for 2 people. The quantities could have easily fed three people. Nice, clean decor but the lighting could have been dimmed more to create a better atmosphere. Customer service wasnt great our soft drinks were served with the can and a glass. A little ice and lemon and poured for us would have been nice given the price of the meal was mid range. Our compliments on the food were brushed aside. If youre after a good, tasty, speedy, no frills meal this is the place for yo...

Decent Chinese restaurants are starting to become scarce around our neck of the woods. Plenty of take aways but not so many where you can go and sit down. We decided to take the 25 minute journey to Milton Keynes to try Taipan and it was well worth the trip. Four of us, we had Duck, spring rolls and prawn toast starters which we shared between us. For the mains we had a variety if dishes, but all were excellent. Rice was light and not greasy, all the meat was very tender and well flavoured. My wife had the lamb and onion sizzling platter, I had the beef with pepper and honey, my son had the melting pork belly. As many people have mentioned, the decor is dated, but who cares, I did not go the...

"Absolutely average restaurant. Dirty bamboo table mats and super dirty windows, kinda sad to look out of them. Impatient service, who under 6 minutes 5 times came back trying to pressure me to take my order. I was confused as I thought it was a restaurant not a fast food place. Silly me who used to live in Japan though the menu is just like there, with pictures. How wrong I was...So getting my phone to have a look at their website, what kinda different that in the restaurant menu card one. When I tried to ask for reconditions, I didn't get any, she just straight away took the last what I asked. The steamed algae was very nice, but my noodle soup was a big surprise, as I have no idea what's roasted (burned) pepper and massive chunks of onions doing there? It's supposed to be sea food, but instead just some burned vegetables scared with frozen octopus, mussels and mini calamari rings poured up with chicken broth. So yeah, kinda disappointing. Drink wise I asked the waitress do they have any tonic water as it isn't listed on the menu card, she looked at me like I am a weirdo. I asked for Roku gin what is my favourite. On the receipt was counted as an extra pound because Japanese. Lol, no comment. Getting the drinks, from other restaurants you get the spirit on the rocks in the glass and front of you they pouring the mixer drink from the mini bottle. Here not, just straight away together as it comes. Oh and don't bother asking without lemon, because you are getting one either way. So Akasaka restaurant did not become my favourite one. Once and last. Easily can be forgotten. Service: Dine in Meal type: Lunch Price per person: £20–30 Food: 2 Service: 3 Atmosphere: 4"
