"So I did Ping Pong twice in a week. Once with a friend because it was local (St Paul's) and second, because I was at Wembley for a concert and it was the one with the smallest queue. Ping Pong has never really been a draw for me in the past, its never been a case of I MUST GO THERE. I have passed it several times when in Westfield Stratford and settled on Bumpkin, Busaba Eathai, even TGI Friday's. I am starting to come around to dim sum. With recent visits to Hakkasan, Bintang and Mama Lan, these tasty Chinese style bite sized pockets of goodness are growing on me. Ping Pong spaces are always quite big. I love the dark wood and rich chocolately interior. I live for the island seating, watching the Chefs do their thing (not at all locations). For now, I will focus on Wembley, simply because I was impressed with the seamless service regardless of the fact that it was mad busy with concert goers everywhere. We queued for 45 minutes which is to be expected with 65,000 people in the area. This was made up of actually standing in the queue and then having a drink at the bar. The system they have is good, they take your mobile and call you when your table is ready. This is the only way for them to successfully navigate through the traffic of bar customers and queuing hungry people. At the bar, my only negative so far was that the wine was not chilled so we needed ice. Diluted wine is not a good thing. Once we were sat, our waitress was unaffected by the demanding clientele in her section, was chirpy and attentive. The sequence of service was flawless. Drinks arrived promptly, food arrived as it was ready. The food was good. All the staff floated around the room, appearing to be in control. If there was tension, I could not see it. This site is obviously built for volume on days like this and they have the right team to facilitate it. In terms of food, I will amalgamate both dining experiences as they were on par. We went all out ordering duck spring rolls, prawn on toast with mango salsa and soft shell crab. There was also prawn and chive dumplings, I had black prawn dumpling. Honeyed chicken and mushroom rice pot and vegetable sticky rice completed the banquet. I think that Ping Pong lends itself well to sharing. There is so much goodness, it would be rude not to share. I will continue my dim sum journey and if Ping Pong happens to be in the vicinity, it will certainly be considered for another visit."

"my mother and daughter came to wembley to go to the Dosa Express, but unfortunately there was a huge snake out there. also the other restaurant in south Indian was too busy so we went to this restaurant with the becuase, it was windy and my...Mum is 70 and could not go very far. the tables were occupied with customers waiting for them to eat. a worker approached us about 5-7 minutes later and cleaned the table. At first no menus were bought to table, I had to ask for them what was only a menu. we have decided what we wanted and ordered only when the personal said there are no chats at the moment. I feel that customers should be informed when arrived at the door as my daughter chat and pani puri wanted. around us were families that were very excited and curious about their order. behind us the family told us that everyone waited for a long time, about 1 1/2 hours. we decided to order the starter. paneer tikka was very mild, without taste only red chili curcuma and coriander power, which was roasted. crispy bindi was only tasted. there were no plates given while that came, we asked for popadum while we wait, but only have one. we decided that we do not wait for the main page and decided to set the bill. only 3 employees a family canceled 2 dishes, as they could not wait. overall I will not go back because service and quality of food was bad. they need to improve their communication level between them and offer more services when they are opening up in this pandemic and recruiting more employees."

"We have been to the Blackhorse Wembley several times including on Mother’s Day and loved the food and the reasonable price. Therefore, we willingly decided to book this pub for our Christmas Day lunch. We were a party of 6: 4 adults and 2 children (4 7). My husband and the kids arrived first then the other adults arrived a bit later. We were seated at a nice, cosy part of the pub and then ordered drinks from the bar. After sitting for a while no one came to our table so I had to politely ask the waitress to get our order, emphasising for the waitress to bring out the starter and the main at the same time for my 4 year old. So we patiently waited for our starters noting that all the other tables were having at least a starter or their main. After about 20 minutes I asked one of the waitresses about our order and said she would find out. To my surprise rather than communicating to me what was going on she brought more food to the other tables so had to wait another 20 minutes. By that time my two kids were starting to get upset and hungry. So I enquired that we are still waiting for our starters and to my amazement I was told that there was food waiting to be served and it was a case of first come first served. This did not make sense, otherwise why have a booking system as people would just turn up. After about another 15 minutes we still did not receive our meal so I enquired again and was advised that our order will be ready soon. After yet another lengthy wait and feeling exasperated I spoke to the manager and was surprised that even our starters had not arrived. Eventually we received our starters after an 1 hour 15 mins of waiting. Things did not get any better when we again had to wait for another 30 mins for our main meal. By this time we were all frustrated and stressed out by and did not fully enjoy our meal due to the disproportionate and poor communication. After the meal I went to the manager to get an ice lolly for my son and relayed the excessive delay to the manager who did not apologise but merely stated that the kitchen staff were working as hard as they could. I appreciate that as it was Christmas it was busy but to wait for over an hour is wholly unacceptable and unfortunately was one of the last memory of the day. Even my 4 year old son gave it the thumbs down. A very dissapointing conclusion to what was a very good Christmas up to the waiting for our meals. This year I would rather stress out in the kitchen cooking Christmas dinner rather than going to pub for Christmas. Please note before writing my review on Trip advisor I emailed the Blackhorse pub twice relaying the above and on both occasions did not receive any response. Sums up the lack of customer care that this pub has for its customers. Very disappointed!"
