china house - hyatt regency

i was truly amazed by the interiors of this place, it was upmarket with a dash of casual.servicefollows and more importantly they are very aware of the menu and what goes into preparation of each dish which is very important. now onto actual food, we decided to go set menu so we can try out maximum number of items in their smaller portions. i was truly surprised to see hot & sour soup was the one you would get in us and not the typical hot & sour we get in india. starters are very very tasty and i say that because i usually don't like dumplings but these were great. however i did not think much of the main course, we had three main items and fried rice of which we only really liked the fried rice and crispy french beans. mango pudding i thought was a bit of a shock as it was canned mango juice with pudding but i was expecting more fresh and organic taste, especially at this price.

overall i had a wonderful experience and am already looking forward to going back again.

a high-end asian food restaurant on the 2nd floor of the hyatt on ashram road, the restaurant is a great addition to the gastronomic landscape of the city.

ambiance and decor: classy dim lighting creates a very special ambiance to the restaurant. this is very ably complemented by the great decor and artifacts. the rather large restaurants has very thoughtfully been divided into smaller sections that imparts a cozy atmosphere as well as keeps noise levels down. rating 4.5/5

service:  great attentiveservicethat starts right from the entry till the end of the meal. the waiters are familiar with the cuisine and can help you with your order. rating 4.5/5

food: i ordered a chicken hot and sour soup which was just okay. i have had significantly better flavoured hot and sour. the kung pao chicken was lip smackingly good. the prawn siu-mai was excellent, the chicken was soft and juicy and the shell perfectly thin and soft. 4/5

all in all an an excellent speciality asian restaurant that i will wholeheartedly recommend to all.

(update)
(to old staff that was there in the opening of chinese: i love you guys, the old original china house team from the opening times and we all miss you a lot. i have a lot of memories here but sadly few of them are not so good now. hope to meet u guys altogether again if i at all get that luck.)

to whom it may concern,

this current rating is done regarding a visit a while ago. being a regular customer i am sad to see the restaurant business going up butservicequality going down. i have been visiting china house the fifth or sixth time since their opening and im upset to see that the whole teams has been shifted into different other sessions. all that is left is one nice guy who remembered us. others are cold faces who hardly cared about our needs. we had come to china house expecting that it would be a quiet place for us to have dinner as it usually has less customers on weekdays. that day the place was filled with good amount of people so we have requested to get a table away from the crowd so that we get some privacy. first the stewardess rewuested that we wait and she will ask for permission. she came back with a refusal saying that the session on the other side is closed. so in disappointment we have requested just to keep the ac slower becos boo was not keeping so well. she said that she will reduce it. 5mins later with customers sitting in around us, which made the whole place real noisy, she came back to serve other customer in the table next to us, we didnt figure that there was a big change in the ac so we asked and she replied saying that she did it alrdy, which we cant say anything becos we dont wna look like we are too demanding. we started deciding what to eat and here comes a steward in a suit asking us for our order. when asked questions regarding the japanese menu, he clearly have no idea of what is being served and had to check it up several times with the kitchen. i have no problem with that. but the idea of him expecting that i shud be able to decide right after him giving me unclear information was quite wrong to me. he said coldly but professionally if i am going to take time deciding then he will first take someone elses orders. we are like 'um ok'. so he went off and used a very different tone and spend a lot of time taking some other big business class foreigner customers with their order, patiently and warmly, the difference was clear. i guess cos we were in casuals and they were in formals? that only he would have known. the only thing that had saved this review from being a zero was that half way waiting, one of the stewards who recognises us showed up and greeted. so we flooded him with our needs and he fulfilled all of them without a single question!!!!! the seating area, the ac in that empty sitting area, water, small snack starters, everything. without a question! we told him how different the whole place has become and how much changes have been done regarding theservicestandards and staff arrangements. he was very apologetic and had really brought us back to heaven from hell.
for this passionate staff of yours i would love to give you guys a five star rating cos he really saved the whole restaurant cos this is one of the few places which i get to cure my home sick with nice people andserviceand food. however, im giving a two to raise awareness to the management about how new staffs are ruining customers' experience over here. i hope the management would instead of only putting all the best people to develop and settle new places, please also put efforts in replacing them with same passionate and well-mannered staffs in order to maintain theservicequality you had from the beginning till the end. if not then at least train them to become one.

boo had made me a birthday party yesterday night at china house and its the best birthday ever! (not only that boo sahil fernandes has been doing a perfext arrangement with the decor team and communicating with the hyatt team💕) the china house team has played a very big role throughout the whole time! a bit slow (just very very bit as i understand few dishes preparation time is long) but very good service😊 very warm and cheerful and helpful staff💕 a😱best part is awesome food for both non veg and vegetarian😋😋😋 as a chinese i would say they have really done a very good job in making the veg food taste authentic as well cos here in india with limited ingredients its quite hard to make good authentic veg food but you guys have done a really good job! no doubt in all 7 course there is one or two course which has to be a bit indianised but i still say i love them💕😱 good job china house👍 (rating: 4.5)

craving for some good chinese food??china house is where you should visit.

i visited this place with my family for lunch. a perfect place where we could find food that would satiate every one's taste buds. good ambiance and amazingservicewould make you feel special. our server mr. bhagwati made sure we had the best dishes from the menu.

coming to the food, we had ordered vegetable noodle soup. it is same as veg. clear soup served at other places. dumplings and dimsums are a must have for any authentic chinese cuisine. we had ordered crystal vegetable dumpling and baby corn, carrot and beans dimsums. it tasted amazing with the sweet chilli sauce.

stone spicy local potato with chilli, onion and celery had a perfect blend of spices. we ordered clay pot seasonal vegetables with shichuan chilli sauce along with fried rice with bean sprouts, bell pepper and chinese cabbage. this is something which one shouldn't miss. noodles lovers should definitely try wok fried udon noodles with black pepper, green onion and bell pepper.

a chinese meal is incomplete without hot pot tea. though only no tea is mentioned in the menu, do ask for a separate tea menu. from the list of teas from east, we ordered crystal tea which had infused flower flavors.

on and all, a must visit place of you are looking for a great experience with some amazing food.

excellent - one of the best places in ahmedabad and the best for certain for asian. the open kitchen adds to the ambiance andserviceis also good. must try are the wonton soup and spring rolls. its very rare to see spring rolls the size of cigars - perfectly rolled. ask for the jasmine tea to accompany.

amazing food amazingserviceone of the best places to visit if u want to have authentic chinese food ..
the non veg and dumplings are amazing ..
don’t miss it ..

theservicewas great! ushmita and chef yogesh were very considerate of our dinning experience! the dimsums and fried rice was great too

delicious food and great service. it's a bit expensive but is compensated by greatserviceand 50% off on wednesdays. i booked my reservation through the hyatt dining club.

they are also willing to make some small customisations to your food as per your taste. want more mushrooms ,chicken or add a completely new vegetable.

only a little disappointing factor was less options in poultry mains.
vegetarians will have a lot to choose from.

had dinner with girl friend. menu is perfect, there is something for everyone.servicewas awesome and courteous staff. had delicious clay pot vegetables recommended by akshey. will be back definitely! 5*

visited with family , food was great , mr shubham helped with the menu andservicewas great.

we had visited this restaurant for the first time when it had recently started! we went for lunch recently in last week of october with friends and had a good experience!serviceis great over here!!! food- if someone is looking to try authentic oriental food then this place should be visited!

delectable buffet with greatservicefrom staff.🙌

had a wonderful lunch with family , delicious food at china house , awesome prawns , sushi. great sunday offer .must go-to place. very courteous and politeservice. ended with filter coffee

something really different from the usual amdavadi street food. definitely reasonably priced and pretty much sumptuous on quantity. an evening where i decided to treat myself up for some chinese craving. the ambience was absolutely classy and was a treat to the eyes. impeccable hospitality and some amazing quality of food for which hyatt is famous for.

to try, definitely the dimsums for the festival that's running and the fried rice with chicken, egg and garlic. it's definitely sumptuous for one and reasonable on the pocket. i'd also heavily recommend the caramel rocher. an absolute monster of a dessert its just perfect to end a good meal at this place.

kudos for the food andserviceguys! looking forward to visiting again

the food was really good...authentic chinese taste...theservicewas on time...behaviour was polite..mr. karan was always there to provide us with quick and quality service...overall the whole exp was quite good..wll surely come for a brunch again....
