"I was extremely disappointed with the service I received at this restaurant. After waiting for 25 minutes to be attended to, the waiter finally came to take our drink order and was behaving erratically and rudely. To my surprise, I later found out that the waiter was actually the owner of the restaurant. I never even received my drink order and ended up leaving because of the poor treatment. I cannot recommend this restaurant to anyone, as the owner's behavior was unacceptable. The food on other tables looked decent, but the way the owner treated customers is unacceptable. I would only recommend this place to a friend if I wanted them to be treated poorly. I would not want to support this restaurant with my money."

"We had a Japanese friend staying with us who had not had a Japanese meal in England before. We decided to try this Japanese restaurant as a takeaway and ordered several dishes. Our friend rated the meal overall as a 6 out of 10. I...would agree with her. The dishes were cooked to the Western palate and had a little too much sugar added making the fried udon, teriyaki chicken and fried aubergine all too sweet for the Asian palate. However, we will still visit the restaurant in future. We will make a point to request the chef to reduce the amount of sugar and salt."

"Proper punjabi home cooked meal. This is it. Home style cooking, missing your mothers food, visit this place you won’t be disappointed. Simple vegetarian food, cheap but good quality and tasty food (5 star food hygiene rating). Wish they were in central London but well worth the trip. 5 mins walk from Southall station. Very pleasant staff, always smiling and helpful. To top it off, love the punjabi songs they run on the TV, brings back memories of my home, which I dearly miss. Keep up the good work. Makki roti saag, cholle bhature (not even a drop of oil), chaat and hot fresh jalebi!"

"Had dinner here with a friend, excellent meal with delicious food (deep fried Brie followed by chocolate cherry tart with sour cherry sorbet). The evening was made by the fabulous waitress Egle who not only looked after us so well all evening but was equally attentive to the other tables. Wonderwoman! As I was staying on the same block, I returned for my breakfast next morning it's a great place to watch the world go by and also ate dinner again, this time with my son grandsons. Again, cannot praise Egle and the other staff enough for their friendly professionalism. Incidentally, as I'm mobility impaired, I used the accessible toilet and what a beauty it is, absolutely spotless and just look at the lovely decorations in the photos! This place is a great find and I'll be heading straight back next time I'm in this part of London."

"We walked into this pub at 6pm yesterday, in a group of 8 of us having come from a picnic. From the moment we walked in, the man working took a very plain and obvious issue with us. We had some crisps out on our table left over from our picnic, and he came over to say We don 't approve of people bringing food from outside in , which is absolutely fair enough but it was expressed extremely rudely and he did not give us an opportunity to apologise or rectify this, simply walked off. When my friend asked for a food menu, this same man said 'They 're inside ' then turned around and left. We were made to feel so incredibly unwelcome throughout our experience; bare in mind we spent easily £30 each so they made hundreds of pounds off us, none of us were visibly intoxicated having come from a very innocent picnic, and we were then asked to leave the establishment and told we would not be served anymore. My friend went to the bathroom and overheard the barstaff whispering ! about us in a disparaging tone. All in all, we were so incredibly uncomfortable and hurt at this point we wanted to leave anyway. Our group consisted of one pregnant woman, two people with neurodivergencies including autism, and none of us were behaving indecently or intoxicated by any means. We feel discriminated against and deeply confused about the prejudice we experienced, especially since we used to come to this pub all the time when it was under the previous owners who were lovely. None of us will ever go back and we will be sharing our experience widely to make sure nobody else is put through such a humiliating ordeal. I went to the manager to ask why we were being told to leave, and she gave a shpeel about 'duty of care under Fullers brewery ' for nobody to be too intoxicated that she had served. This was entirely ridiculous as we had been served about 3 drinks each at this point. I will re-iterate, nobody was drunk, but these staff accused us of 'acting weirdly ' and wouldn 't say who specifically was at fault, which again, is highly immoral discrimination potentially against those of us on the spectrum. All in all, a really unfriendly, weird, and poor quality experience. Staff seemed actively resentful for having to do their jobs and serve anything at all. Manager incompetent, staff nasty, never again."

"We were greeted on arrival by a very friendly waitress who let us choose a table and even though there were only two of us she let us have the prime window table laid out for four. We ordered drinks and chose the set Classic Menu. The starters arrived and were lovely and the presentation was beautiful too. We then had the crispy aromatic duck course which was again delicious but we had an odd number of wraps so had to cut one in half and share but never mind! The final main course was the best yet all the dishes were delicious. The Sizzling King Prawns in black bean sauce were exactly that piping hot and sizzling black smoke over the table! The crispy shredded beef was tasty and the Thai green curry spicy. My only minor quibble was the dish of special fried rice to share could have been bigger to soak up all the lovely sauces. After each course the waitress brought a dish of warm water to wash our sticky hands and piping hot towels at the end of the meal. We will definitely be going back soon."

"Have lived in the area forever and the Grosvenor has always been one of ours, and our neighbours’, local go to pubs. Over the past few months it has just gone downhill. The food used to be quite nice (the lunch deal was especially good). It now seems to be reheated frozen food: very sloppy with no taste. The drinks are quite high for the area. Service is okay but staff aren’t really interested apart from when the manager is about. You’d think they would have pulled out all the stops following the closure for mice infestation. Sad to pass by daily and see it empty. I suppose people have voted with their feet and gone elsewhere."

"I recently visited this restaurant and ordered for grilled chicken with rice and salad as sides. I've been sick for the last 2 days with food poisoning. The chicken was dry and overcooked which leads me to believe that it was stale and overcooked. With a bill of 25£ ive ended up with food poisoning. Requesting the owner to please be careful with what you serve and look into the matter."

"We made a reservation at a restaurant through Google for the first time ever. The restaurant was easy to locate and we were greeted warmly as soon as we arrived. We chose a table by the window at the front and perused the diverse menu options. The portions turned out to be larger than expected, resulting in us over-ordering. The food was delicious, particularly the spicy hummus, but we were unable to finish everything due to the generous proportions. Despite this, we had a pleasant evening and enjoyed chatting with the friendly waiter from Kerala. The food was tasty and would have been even better if we had ordered less and managed to finish all of it!"

Among the favorites are calamari fritti, trotta rina forelle, fabulous steak with pfeffer sauce, chickenermone grappa. all recommended. stefano, who runs the restaurant, is also a bit magic and makes great cartoons! his sweats are not bad either! very friendly staff and definately worth a visit, especially with good weather as they can dinate al fresco!"

"My order rang food hygiene alarm bells. Ordered mozzarella panini and fries. The fries were covered in black bits from the fryer and the panini (which was brown bread in a panini shape) had no cheese in it. When I pointed out the lack of cheese, they simply added mozzarella to the sandwich I’d sent back. So the sandwich I had bitten may have been out back in the toaster. By then the inside of the sandwich as liquid from the original tomato with a slimy consistency. Binned it"

"I went to this restaurant for a quick lunch and was taken aback by the chaos inside, with everyone running around, especially the male boss. A waitress with curly hair and a London accent came over to take our order, she was lovely. However, the manager interrupted and told her to serve someone else who came in before us. He was incredibly rude. When we tried to change our drink order, the staff mixed it up and the manager insisted we were in the wrong. He was flustered and spoke to his staff terribly. He seemed unhygienic, sweating profusely and giving off a bad odor. I would not return to this place. The female manager was also very rude to my companion. This restaurant needs a complete overhaul."

"this place is soou good! always very welcoming! all employees have a smile on their face, only 2 small mistakes! when the food arrived, it was quite cold, but maybe that was the case because the place was super busy! and if I order a latte, no sweat, the half of the drink is foamy/milky foam, and I have to clean it out before I start so that I can finally reach my drink, other than eating it tastes good! the workers are so helpful and have no problems to go backwards and forwards to get for them, as I think my table had 7 people n it must become angry to be honest, the art and wise my table was so demanding, I would have annoying, but they always have it for us with a smile!"

"I'd been wanting to go to WA Cafe Covent Garden for a while, because it looked so good on Instagram! It was so good I went twice in the 2 days I was in London! The patisserie are delicious fluffy heaven! I had matcha roll one day with the delicious red bean paste inside! Day 2 I had the Yuzu Honey cake and it was perfect! The matcha latte is delicious and beautifully presented with a lovely pattern on the top. And what I really liked was the lovely smile I received from a kind member of staff as I walked in the door, both days! :"

"The best Indian I have ever been to!!! If you love Indian food and trying new foods, this is the place to go!! Chef Islam is extremely welcoming and creative with his specials... They have all of the traditional dishes, of course, but his specials are truly amazing and they're happy to accommodate food to your taste/needs. I live in France now, but every time I come back to London to visit family, I make sure this place is on our itinerary! Plus it's great value for money for London, and they team are so thoughtful! We came this time for my mum's birthday and they made a special birthday dessert for her!"

"Recently visited the new in with friends for a birthday and had an amazing experience throughout our evening. The food was delicious and presented professionally. We tried a few different cocktails but loved the spritz menu the most! We were served by their amazing waitress Gabriele who made sure all our requirements were met throughout the evening and even brought out a birthday special to celebrate. All in all an amazing evening."

"great caffe. we have held a local meeting there and the cost of renting the room and providing food and drink were very reasonable. the place is bright and very cool with the exposed brick interior and wood. They made me an peanut butter and gel roasted sandwich that was not on the menu. gabriel, is a great host. would be nice to see this place open in the evening, maybe a weeping? too nice to close so early."

"I ordered from here through Deliveroo last night as last time I got food from here it was delicious. The delivery said 40 minutes, there was an issue with the driver, granted not the restaurant’s fault. When I called the restaurant and spoke to a so called “manager” he apologised but also continues to say the driver kept saying 5 minutes 5 minutes. Knowing the food had been sitting out for long enough already it continued to sit out whilst waiting for a driver. When I mentioned this to the “manager” he said we don’t have things to keep the food warm. I mentioned knowing he knew the driver was taking longer and food had been sitting out for over 45 minutes that he should have made fresh food to which his response was then we will have to waste more food. This to me was unacceptable, He willingly gave our freezing cold stale food to the driver to be delivered to us to be thrown straight in the bin. The onion bhajis is where in the bottom of the plastic bag not even in the packaging. In one breath he said we don’t have contact with Deliveroo and then said I have contacted them to see how long the driver would be, obvious lie. This is not the kind of response you would expect from a manager who would willingly give out cold food to save money but disappoint the customer. So so disappointed in this place it’s unreal."
