Oriental Brasserie

• ONE of the BEST Chinese in Chiswick!

  It is hard to add anything as 'punkypickle' did such a great & thorough review. I think there are TWO great Chinese restaurants in Chiswick, the other 'May's' is literally opposite. Standouts of the 'Oriental Brasserie' must include their Capital spare ribs, Lobster & other seafood dishes.Efficient & friendly service make this place a winner.

• The best Chinese restaurant in Chiswick!!

  The Oriental Brasserie, as an unassuming Chinese restaurant in Devonshire Road, which is heaving with other restaurants. Don't be put off by it's exterior, once you are inside, you'll be glad of your decision!I have to say that it's only in recent years that I've actually visited the restaurant, as I had used only it's takeaway service, which I feel is one of the best. Everytime I've ordered, the staff on the other end of the phone have always been friendly and the delivery driver is so smiley, and always makes conversation with you! Also if you order takeaway, you always get complimentary prawn crackers and orange slices...not many of them do that!The restaurant is clean and tidy, staff are very welcoming and polite, and service is swift. The one thing that makes it quite unusual is that the kitchen is open, so you can see the Chef's preparing your food...and the kitchen is always immaculate!One dish that really stood out for me, was the crab claws. Usually they are made from reformed meat and covered in bright orange breadcrumbs...not these ones, they really are the real deal! They came with a yummy sweet and sour sauce presented impressively with a carrot, hand carved into the shape of a bird on a branch! I would die happy if I could eat them every day! Other dishes worth a mention are the Crispy Gourmet duck, the drunken fish and the Char sui pork.The wine list is also quite extensive, and I was really surprised by the quality of the Sauvignon Blanc that I ordered!
