Fab service, vibe, drinks, food. Only negative was our wok fried seafood noodles that tasted very inauthentic. Skip that and go with the sichuan classics!

Delicious Food, Great service and a Good atmosphere, I would eat here again! I wanted to try this out for my birthday, after I went to the Shan Shui restaurant at Heathrow Airport on my own and loved it! This time I brought some friends and it didn't disappoint either! At Shan Shui Social the food was delicious once again, the duck main course is 10/10, and it didn't take long to be served, or for our food to come for four people. The staff were very friendly and attentive, it wasn't difficult to get a hold of them to order more drinks or ask for anything extra. Also, it had a good atmosphere as it wasn't too busy, especially considering my booking was for a Saturday evening at 7pm, so we didn't feel rushed at all. Lastly it was reasonably priced, especially considering how close it is located to Buckingham Palace!
