Review of New Mayflower Chinese Restaurant
21 Jul 07, 11:58
Professional and Authentic 
As others have mentioned, the food is quite authentic and tasty. The environment can get rather cramped on evenings (weekend evenings, especially); which is to be expected considering it's one of the more popular chinese cruisine restaraunts (plus it's in Soho!).
When I ate there, I ate with a few mates, and my family (wife and son). There were a total of 7 of us that night; but we were actually quite fitted and still had room for ourselves (on a busy evening at that). We ended up getting about a dish each; but everything was beyond what you would get from most other places.
I would suggest some of the more routine things if you want a good evaluation of how much difference there is altogether. I recall getting the lemon chicken and it was probably one of the better ones I've had. There was enough zest; but the chicken was still crispy (even though covered in Lemon sauce). Their noodles are very easy to fall into eating as well.
As Elaine has mentioned, expect to pay anywhere from a tenner to about 14-15 pounds for some dishes. The soups are scrumptious and you can't go wrong in picking one that sounds to your taste (because if you have that feeling - you'll most likely enjoy it).
