"Came here for dinner. Ordered the onion bhajees £3.90) which were very dense. Also had the prawn puri £5.50), which was okay but the wholemeal wrap overpowered the taste of the dish. Then had the cochin prawn curry £9.50) which tasted really fresh, and the lamb korma £6.90) which my husband really enjoyed. We also had a pilau rice £2.90) and an egg fried rice £3.90). We also had the sweet coconut paratha £2.90) which again, because of the wholemeal nature of the bread, overpowered the taste of the coconut. Hubby had a large bottle of cobra beer £5.50) and I had a large bottle of mineral water £2.90). Service was good from the majority of people, although we had one woman serving us that was quite miserable and distracted."

"We live locally and have taken friends and family to Cut the Mustard for Saturday brunch. The food has always been wonderful, all made from scratch and you can see from their social media how much effort goes in to each and every thing that...they do. Huge kudos to Jimmy, he definitely isn’t taking the easy route with his lovely cafe. The coffee is great and juices are fresh. I had a wonderful granola last time I went with cherries and Greek yoghurt and it’s one of the best breakfasts I’ve had in ages. Last time we went we also bought a sourdough loaf to bring home and it was very tasty. We sliced it and popped it in the freezer for yummy weekend breakfasts. It’s great to have such a fantastic local and independent cafe."

"The presentation of the food was amazing! We ordered the Thors Hammer beef roast dinner (for 4 people) and the meat fell off the bone however we did think it tasted like lamb (I'm not a lover of lamb) so It made me feel a bit sick, I am still convinced it was lamb but apparently it was definitely beef. The roast potatoes were perfect but we did say we would have liked more. We got 3 each. The rest of the roast was average, I do think it was a little over priced for what it was £32.50pp but granted you are paying for the meat and presentation. The service was a little slow and unorganised. The food was bought out before all the plates which meant we had to wait a further 5 mins before we could actually eat and we did ask 3 times for a jug of water for the table."

"We found this little gem on a trip to Fulham for football. Putney itself is lovely. We go to the restaurant each time we stay. The owner and staff are wonderful. Nothing is too much. The food is top notch and wine also. We had starters of spicey octopus and garlic mushrooms and mains rib eye steak and chicken breast. Served with fresh veg. Everything was lovely. No rush with service. Only down side had to pay couple quid for bread. Im sure complimentary won't break the bank. Love it"

"We have used this restaurant fairy often over the past couple of years as we live locally and the food has always been good and reasonably priced. However, recent visits during the winter months have not been such a pleasant experience. This is because the restaurant does a lot of take away trade with delivery drivers constantly coming and going. This is not a problem in warmer weather when the door is left open, but during cold weather it gets very uncomfortable as the door does not close properly, on our last visit there was a blast of cold air every time it was left open. We found ourselves having to get up every couple of minutes to close the door which became so annoying that we decided to leave the instant we finished our meals. I am sure that we cant be the only customers who have experienced this and hopefully they will get the door fixed, (although it has been like this for some time now). In the meantime I would recommend that you don't sit next to the door in cold weather as it can be really uncomfortable having to eat wrapped up in winter clothing! We have also experienced long waits on occasions during busy periods as they seem to prioritise the takeaway orders."

"I decided to give this restaurant a try, as I usually go to Sushi 54. I was disappointed by the portion sizes, with only 6 slices of cucumber and a small amount of seaweed in the seaweed and cucumber salad for £6. The maki rolls were also very small, about the size of £2 coins. Compared to Sushi 54, I felt like I was being ripped off. When I called to complain, the manager laughed, so I won't be returning. I hope this review helps set your expectations if you choose to order from here. Stick with Sushi 54 for better value."

"Please note inaccuracies on the website… Kids eat free is NOT available. We were charged for our child’s meal even when we said we had gone there specially for the kids eat free as advertised on the website. Saturday opening time 12.00 noon is NOT correct, we were told 1pm opening time. We were allowed in at 12 but the door was locked behind us! Manager was rude when these inaccuracies pointed out. Restaurant seems badly run and the manager poorly and scruffily presented. We filled in the online form to complain but this has been ignored. Finally, we were both extremely ill with vomiting after visiting this restaurant which has put us off ever visiting Franco Manca again. This is a shame as we have been frequent and happy customers of various other Franco Manca restaurants for many years"

"I have eaten there regularly, as a friend lives locally, but never again, the arrogance of management and personal resembles something of lavish towers: incident 1 waiter nr. 1 comes up and spills curry on the table, no problem, waiter nr. 2 deletes the table and starts shaking his head at me over the spillage on the table as if it is my fault. incident 2, waiter brings me a bottle of beer I said I will pour it, he refuses to let me do this and insists that he pours it! incident 3 waiter comes to clear the table and spills beer over me, he and his colleague then laugh and I ask the administration for a rabatt the inconvenience and cleansing, he said that the best"

"Great service, food and drinks! We loved everything here. We ordered steaks this time but next time I’m eager to try the ribs as they also looked delicious. The chimichurri sauce was a bit sour for my liking but still yummy. Steaks were also perfectly cooked and the fries were delicious! We will definitely be back :"

"I came here with a few friends for a quiet reunion drink one Friday evening. We had a friend visiting from abroad, we were in the neighborhood and liked the look of The Pig and Whistle. It's laid out nicely, with a good amount of seating and a decent selection of beers and spirits on offer as well. Staff were also friendly enough. Before long, we were all enjoying a beer and catching up with each other. My big issue was when I went up to get a few drinks a couple of hours in. We weren't going to be staying out much longer so I thought I'd switch to spirits. I ordered a double whisky for myself (Talisker, neat), a G&T (double Bombay sapphire) and a pint of ale. This came to £27.30. I must not have heard the bar lady at the time or I would have questioned this, but I was naturally shocked when I saw this on my receipts later on. I've been to pubs in Central London where I could have gotten all of the above for considerably less. I know that Youngs pubs are often a bit pricier but I thought that was pushing it. I don't know if the bar staff made a mistake or if it really is that pricey, but I certainly was not expecting that from a local pub on the outskirts of Wimbledon. I'd be happy to discuss this with a manager or member of staff from the pub, but as it stands I'm still left with a very bitter aftertaste and will not be returning."

"Having eaten at this establish countless times before during my childhood, it seemed the perfect place to remedy the vestiges of alcohol in our system from the night before. Eagerly, my friends and I downloaded the Pizza Express app, a clever scheme by the restaurant to encourage students such as ourselves to visit the restaurant given the billion pound debt faced by the company. My friends both enjoyed a free dough ball dish for signing up whilst I refrained from ordering due to lack of appetite, saving my deals for another day. The food, as expected, was bog-standard, run-of-the-mill pizza express, food that we have all had before and will most likely have again. This was just about nice enough to justify the expenditure due to lack of proper competition in the area and the proximity of the restaurant. However, that being said, it was slightly sloppy, stodgy and lacking structure, typical to that of pizza express pizzas. No major complaints arose from the quality of the food as it was no different to that purchased usually from pizza express. However, our qualms with the experience arose from the mistreatment of our group by the staff. The attitude of staff was blunt in the settling of the bill, which had to be adjusted only once to include our offers on the app, necessitating the printing of a single extra receipt. This was met with frustration and disdain despite the fact that my friends had never used the app before and were unfamiliar with its operation. Given that my demographic, younger students who may not normally opt to eat there without the deals, is the target of these schemes, I was surprised by such shortness from the staff and at the different treatment given to young adults. That being said, the staff were, on the whole, very helpful. However, it is such a shame that only one waiter in particular ruined the experience over such a trivial issue. On the whole, the food was just about up to standard. However, we left with a bitter taste in our mouths and the desire to leave a review for the first time given that this behaviour was so out of order."

"I had my first dinner at Bucci last night while visiting our daughter, and thoroughly regretted not having discovered this little gem while still living in London. Service was nothing short of top, with Graziano taking super care of us with super charm, great sense of humor and good advice on food wines. Being Italian we generally avoid Italian restaurants, but were glad to make an exception to celebrate my father in law b’day, and be treated to a high quality “home made” cuisine, like you only find in few “family run” restaurants. I went for Melanzane alla Parmigiana as appetizer, and two mains on a “share basis”, i.e. spicy shrimps and balsamic calamari. All of the dishes were cooked to perfection, generous portions, tasty and high quality ingredients. All of this was accompanied by a nice blend of white (Sauvignon and Chardonnay grapes) recommended by Graziano, which again made everyone happy. Forgot to mention, I was finally prepared a nice and proper Negroni to begin the evening with, which again is easier said than done in most places in London. Thx again for treating us to a great evening of great food in a warm, friendly and joyful environment."

"I really wanted to like this place but sadly it didn't meet up to expectations. The staff were all very polite to me but service was incredibly slow and a majority of people were having to come inside to pay just to get the attention to be able to pay. They were obviously rushed off their feet so I do feel for them as lots of people were complaining. In terms of the good I ordered the breakfast quesadilla and a side of hash browns. The hash browns were expensive for the number that their were (in pic) however tasty and nicely seasoned. The quesadilla was nice in flavour and the chorizo really yummy but the fried egg inside was overcooked and more like a well done scrambled egg and the avocado was almost non existent. The contents were not well spead out so one quarter barely had any contents. The tomato salsa on the top hover was a really tasty addition and I was grateful to get lots of it. They are charging a £2 per table charge road closure fee which feels a bit steep especially if you're on your own it could end up being 20% of your bill. I'd heard such great things and it's obviously very popular bit sadly until these things are sorted I would not reccomend."

"A lovely, authentic Sardinian restaurant, a short walk from Putney's high street.I visited at lunch time with colleagues and unfortunately, there was nothing vegetarian on the menu (the vegetable ravioli listed had non-veggie cheese in it). However, the waiter was lovely about it and went and spoke to the chef who prepared me a dish off-menu instead, after checking what I could/could not eat. I hate being difficult and would usually book ahead giving my dietary requirements but they were so accommodating even without prior notice. The (cheese-free) pasta dish I ended up with was fresh and delicious and the fresh, home-made bread that came with the meals was lovely."

"Twice I have request event cakes both times have been let down with poor quality cakes first was undercooked Velvet cake and second was dense, overcooked simple sponge. The cupcakes, macroons and smaller pastries are good, however dissappointed with event cakes to order and the cost they charge a premium for their cakes on order but I cant say I got a premium cake in either case. You may ask why I went back second time benefit of the doubt based on the fact that the smaller cakes were so good. I wont again!"

"This place was a major disappointment for me. I was looking forward to eating her all week and I left still feeling hungry. Ordered the signature burger, mac and cheese, sweet potato fries and the avocado salad. The burger was ok..no GBK and was messy to eat The sweet potatoes fries came out lukewarm. This shouldn't have been the case especially as the restaurant was not busy at all I was put off from the mac and cheese before it came out. I asked the waiter how long it would take if we wanted to order another one and he said 3mins! clearly this isn't made fresh. when it came I wasn't impressed with the flavour The salad was over priced for a but of lettuce and avacado drizzled in a sauce which was not my personal taste They add on 12.5% service charge and I thought this was cheeky especially as there were only 2 of us Left feeling hungry and the price was nearly £20pp. Expensive for what it was."

"In addition to the outstanding coffee, illmolino offers a selection of delectable pastries and light bites. I couldn't resist trying the almond croissant, and it exceeded my expectations. Freshly baked and flaky, it paired perfectly with my flatwhite the guy over there deserve special commendation for their friendly and attentive service. he was knowledgeable about the menu and genuinely enthusiastic about sharing their love for coffee. The attention to detail, from the presentation of the drinks to the cleanliness of the space, further enhanced the overall experience."

"Where do I start? the place is disgustingly dirty from the sticky floors, clogged toilets and the unhinged tables. I was accompanied by 5 friends who were hoping to get a roast. We got to the table at 5:55pm to be told that the chefs threw all of the roasts out and there is now no roasts for the day whilst the staff indulged into their roasts whenever they got a break.. After this, when my friend ordered a chicken burger, he wanted to share this with his girlfriend so he asked the waitress does the chef have a good knife in the back where he can cut this in half properly to which she replied No, I am afraid you have to do this yourself as we do not do this here.. Shocked already, we proceeded to move on and when my other friend was ordering a drink, the barman goes cant you see that I am busy??? absolute terrible hospitality. Then I went to the bar to order a drink and the staff were cleaning up, I said can I please have a gls of wine to which they responded can you not tell I am doing something to which then I decided I DID NOT WANT TO GIVE ANYMORE MONEY TO THIS PLACE. One of the waiters with his pants around his ankles then brakes a glass beside our table and just leaves this there for other people to get injured. Then I ask again, please can I have a gls of wine to which he said to be honest man, we are closing in an hour so I am not bothered to open up a new tab I dont know why he thought we needed a new tab as we were paying as you go?????? To conclude, just dont bother going, there is so many other cool/welcoming places in London like another pub closer to Battersea Powerstation who were sooo happy to welcome us (and they were closing in 15 mins). If you do decided to go, best of luck. To the team, maybe consider hiring new people? or atleast provide training to motivate because they are all useless."
