Hu's Pie & Dumplings Malvern

Inexpensive and enjoyable pretty much sums it up. The food is delicious in a laid-back setting. We enjoy sampling the appetizers and are making our way through the menu.

The food at this restaurant was excellent. We started with some delicious vegetarian spring rolls, followed by a tasty eggplant dish and a whole fried fish. The eggplant was good, but the fish was absolutely sensational. Overall, I would give the food a rating of 5 out of 5 and the ambience a rating of 4 out of 5.

The vegetarian dumplings come highly recommended. Other dishes may be good, but it ultimately depends on the chef's mood. The flavor can vary, so it may be hit or miss.

This place is not fancy nor is it about great service; it's just simply delicious dumplings.As a vegetarian who is allergic to onion (everything in the onion family) I find it particularly hard to find something I can order from Chinese cuisine but the Hu's Special Vegetarian Dumplings, really are special. So special, I have them way too often.

Whilst shopping in Malvern recently, we decided to try Hu’s for lunch. As it was right on the end of lunchtime, we were fortunate to get in, and the restaurant was uncustomarily quiet.  <br/ <br/ We both enjoyed the experience, absolutely nothing wrong with the restaurant and we found the food more than adequate for our needs.<br/ <br/ Realistically, we only wanted a quick lunch, and as such chose Spring Rolls for a shared entree. These were your typical spring rolls but perhaps just a little better in quality than the normal spring rolls you are served in some Chinese restaurants. Nothing wrong with them, crisp, hot and delicious.<br/ <br/ Carole chose Honey Chicken for her main course. It too, was very pleasant indeed, we both shared it so I can certainly qualify Carole’ s comments it was excellent. It was simply good Chinese food.  <br/ <br/ On the other hand, I chose Spiced Salt Squid which was equally as good. Could not fault its quality there were plenty of spices in it to make it a meal I really enjoyed.<br/ <br/ There is a very extensive menu, complete with dumplings, which we did not get to try it this time but would like to go back and try some later.<br/ <br/ The wine list is very typically that expected in a medium price range Chinese restaurant. An adequate selection from which Carole enjoyed a Windy Peak Pinot Grigi, which was cool, crisp and well suited to her honey chicken.  <br/ <br/ Table service was good, although it is very hard to judge as we were one of only a couple of tables left in the restaurant. However based on the experience we had, there was no problem.<br/ <br/ The ambience was really good. The decor was very pleasant and very typically traditional Chinese culture with a lot of red and gold. The murals on the wall made it all very inviting, the tables and chairs were extremely comfortable and a welcome change from some of the chairs and tables you are provided with in most restaurants. A pleasant change. There was adequate spacing between tables within the restaurant so as you were not sitting on your neighbours laps.<br/ <br/ As far as value for money goes, it is normal for a mid range restaurant, or a good quality lunch.
