5.5/10very noisy at the side of tge restaurant. upstairs and partbof groubd floor area closed. Staff kept forgetting to bring drinks we requested or simply appeared overwhelmed. food was good but not amazing. i feel Ping Pong has lost its personal touch and service needs a review of the training. The manager was there but appeared to be pre-occupied doing paper work. I doubt i will go again

5/101 menu between 5 people was not really practical. The ordering system, where one writes on the menu is convenient for staff but not for customers. It was chaotic when we tried to order additional servings. Food was quite good but some portions were quite small. E.g. the set menu was not large enough for me. (I'm a 5 ft tall woman with a quite average appetite, not a hungry rugby player!!!) The vibe is noisy and canteen-like. Quite hard to have a conversation.

6.5/10Very average food, noisy and crowded restaurant but I suppose that is to be expected on Southbank. The staff were nice and helpful but the food really is terrible. Walk the extra 10 mins and have some proper dim sum in Chinatown.

4/10Quantity was too little and the food was very overpriced. I mainly went for the ping pong fried chicken but they were out of that by 8pm on a Saturday evening. The dim sums were average and the service was sluggish. Not going again.

5/10Service was rubbish to be honest. Just myself and my 9 year old daughter. Took forever to take our order. Took forever to bring our drinks. Once the food arrived, he placed the kids meal in front of me and the dim sum in front of her… I ordered the truffle gyozas and left 1 behind although I had finished because it was awful, he did not even ask if I had finished and took the food away. food has gone downhill. Much better dim sum places with better variety elsewhere.

6/10I felt very rushed, some of the dishes were ok, really nothing special. Rather bland and main course not very hot. Rather disappointing, staff very stretched. Wine was expensive.

8.5/10Went back to Ping Pong after a few years for a catch up with school friends and an engagement celebration. Staff were attentive, food was tasty. I'd brought a cake as my friend has allergies and the waitress remembered witout prompting to serve it as a surprise. Really nice evening and would return for more dim sum!

10/10The location is excellent and food was great quality. The menu has good variety and prices are reasonable. We went for the lazy sunday and took my 11 year old. She loved it and we were stuffed! We had a table in the lovely side area that has a retractable room and it was lovely on a warm sunny Sunday.

5.5/10If you’re allergic to certain types of food there are not a great list of things that you can have, we ended up having the set menu which was okay but the dim sum was not very tasty and we were not provided with any dips. Service was a bit hit and miss, but the noise in the restaurant with the loud music was very annoying.
