"The food was absolutely delicious, the place itself was aesthetically pleasing and just a delight to be in! They were able to accommodate a buggy and we were seated on a table with plenty of space. We had a 2 hour limit, but we weren't rushed and the service was overall excellent! Really enjoyed our meal, and would definitely come back!"

Little Istanbul

➤ Nightingales Corner, Chiltern, United Kingdom

Fish • Meat • Turkish • Desserts

"first little isanbul the owners changed a few months back and is now called nar meze grill. the restaurant has a lift and the food and service are now excellent. this means that all previous reviews for little istanbul no longer apply, including some of the more negative comments. I had a late Sunday lunch with a friend, we enjoyed a very pleasant bottle of cooled pinot rose before they start to beginner and mains towering in. because we did not eat meat, we ordered dishes from the good vegetarian selection, but there is also a large selection of fish and meat. too full for a pudding."

"it was the worst experience in london. the manager of the restaurant is so rude. that was okay, but with this manager we couldn't enjoy at all."

The Queen's Head & Artichoke

➤ 30 - 32 Albany Street London, NW1 4EA, United Kingdom

Fish • Tapas • Steak • British

"This restaurant was conveniently located right next to our hotel, making it a convenient choice for our last night in London. Our evening exceeded my expectations thanks to a recommendation to visit this cozy English pub around the corner. We enjoyed mixed green salads, small tapas-style lamb skewers, fresh bread with oil and balsamic vinegar. I paired my meal with a pale ale and finished with an Espresso Martini. The food was delicious, the atmosphere was pleasant, and our server, Jagoda (which means blueberries!), was delightful. The prices were reasonable and the tables even had real candelabras. Overall, it was a great experience and I recommend stopping by."

The Abingdon Arms

➤ High Street, OX3 9UU, South Oxfordshire, United Kingdom

Pubs • Fish • Steak • Burgers

"I love this pub and have been going since a child. It’s really old and has the most lovely al fresco eating area overlooking meadows that look on to Ottmoor. The staff are lovely and the beer is great. Sunday lunch is excellent, rare beef and great, good quality trimmings BUT and it’s a big but £17 for pizza is too much. We went as a family for lunch and a pretty good but not huge pizza was this price which just seems crazy. Four Hundred Rabbits, a small utterly brilliant London pizza chain with about 4 branches offers their most expensive pizza at £12.50 and starts as £8. I use this as an example as they are paying London rents. At lunchtime this once busy pub was pretty much empty and I think it’s a real shame as this is all down to over inflated prices as everything else is perfect and really excellent."

The Greek Larder

➤ 1 York Way, London N1C 4AS, United Kingdom

Wine • Greek • Coffee • Brunch

"After reading some reviews, we decided to try this restaurant for an evening meal. We ordered a selection of mezze dishes to share. The food looked appealing, but the portions were quite small, and the flavors were lacking. Everything tasted very bland, and it would have been nice to have salt and pepper available at the table. The octopus was tough and not enjoyable. We ordered eight dishes to share among three of us and still left feeling hungry. We spent £150 for three people but didn't leave very satisfied. The space is beautiful and has potential, but they really need to improve their food."

Pasta Remoli

➤ 7 Clifton Terrace London, N4 3JP, N4 3JG, United Kingdom

Beer • Wine • Pasta • Italian

"Not for the first time I visited Pasta Remoli, so I knew what to expect, and was not disappointed very good, very fresh food, in generous portions at very reasonable prices. We went to a late matinee at Park Theatre next door, starting at 3.15, so booked for 2 pm think this would give us plenty of time; as it was, take some slow service (with drinks especially, which felt like time to come), meant that we had to skip Dessert. Nevertheless, we enjoyed our broschetta very much to share, interestingly with a variety of crisp, slightly plastered vegetables rather than the ordinary tomoatoes or roasted veg, our pastas seafood linguine and spaghetti carbonara, both superb and a common side of very garlicky spinach, which is not bad, but let us honking of allium all the afternoon. With an excellent aperol spray and a large glass of a good Pinot Grigio, each of our bill was with service approx. £35 per person, but you could have a dish of pasta and a glass of wine here and spend approx. £15, which is excellent."

Massis Lebanese Grill

➤ 9 Sheldon Square, City of London,Westminster, United Kingdom

Kebab • Pizza • Cafés • Fast Food

"I have eaten here several times prior to lockdown was keen to return but this visit was a disaster from the start sadly. The toilets are down a spiral staircase and the lift was out of order, as I use a mobility aid, meant that after attempting once, I didn't want to drink during the rest of my meal. After telling the staff my allergies was told that there wasn't any on the menu when I pointed out that there were, they were better and offered options. The food was tasty but arrived at different times which we weren't told would happen. So we ordered calamari as a starter, my main course arrived within minutes of ordering and was then cold, by the time the calamari arrived, my friend's main arrived just after the calamari. They are large portions though. Personally wouldn't go again but my friend would because of the location and the food was nice."

Halloumi South Side

➤ 697 Pollokshaws Road, Glasgow, United Kingdom

Cafe • Wine • Greek • Healthy

"Lovely decor, good service from our young waiter. The food was delicious, though there was one negative that took away a 5 star experience. We ordered from the record menu, 3 dishes each. We both received 2 dishes, with a wait of about 10 minutes for both souvlaki. On the plus side, my friend got a free Greek coffee as she hasn't had it before. Definitely worth a visit though"

Massis Grill & Bar

➤ 9 Sheldon Square Paddington Central London, W2 6HY, United Kingdom

Sushi • Lebanese • Japanese • Mediterranean

"Food was good, service was efficient. The restaurant offered 30% discount, so this made it affordable, otherwise, it is quite pricey compared to similar restaurants in nearby edgware road. Its was a bit distracting around 830 pm when they start to shut down the restaurant, moving tables, etc, so that you can no longer have a conversation due to the noise. perhaps this only happens on Monday night?"

"We visited here today for our wedding anniversary meal. We’ve been regulars for special occasions for around 10 years now so it was a no brainer to visit again as the food has always been amazing. Sadly this would be our last visit. On arrival we were greeted by new faces. Turns out there’s new ownership, we obviously weren’t aware of this. We cannot fault the staff at all because they were all lovely and welcoming. Good start. Sadly the menu has changed a lot and many of our fave items were no longer on the menu. We ordered chicken empanadas for starters. They tasted the same as before but instead of using chicken breast it was now chicken mince. Not as tasty or worth the price in our opinion. For our main we both ordered fillet steak at over £30 a piece. My husbands was cooked perfectly (well done . Mine was not. I ordered medium and it arrived medium rare. Maybe even more rare as I attempted to eat it. The meat wasn’t even red in colour, it was a purple tone and it was so rare and wobbled like jelly on my plate. I ended up not being able to stomach more than 50% of it. And to top it off it had 0% flavour. Maybe the chef needs to season the meat in future. The chimichurri was spot on but my husbands peppercorn sauce was rank. It was a strange sloppy grey substance. Never before in my life have I seen grey peppercorn sauce! My husband soon regretted pouring it over his steak which then made it inedible. Ordered the garlic and parsley roasted potato side at around £5. It arrived as 3 large roasted wedges with a small amount of green sauce dribbled on the top! Bland and awful. I’m actually offended by this side in particular. The roasted red pepper however was lovely. But how hard could that one be to get right. My husband did however enjoy one part of his meal and that was the prawn starter. So well done for that one I guess. Still not enough to justify the amount of money we’d just been robbed of. We only had soft drinks with our meal so didn’t spend much on those but the total bill came in at just over £150. I can honestly say it was the biggest waste of money ever. Shocking food to say the least. In my opinion and advice to any regulars out there please steer clear. Sad to say after so many visits over the past decade, we will never return here. Any recommendations for a new steak house would be welcomed! :"

Meat • Beer • Sushi • Asian

"This restaurant is fantastic - the food and service are both excellent! My favorite dish was the black cod glazed with miso, served with lime-soaked vegetables. It was absolutely delicious! I also tried their sushi rolls, the rainbow and volcano, which were packed with flavor and made even better by the fresh fish. I highly recommend this place for lunch, but dinner is also a great option!"

Comptoir Mezze Grill & Mezze Bar

➤ 20 Station Terrace Kensal Rise London, NW10 5RX, United Kingdom

Lebanese • Desserts • Juicebars • North African

"update: came here two more times since the first posted because I love this place so much. the service remained quite good, though sometimes somewhat slow when they have a lot of orders. the second time I came, I got the Moroccan Buddha-shot, but replaced the Ghife-Brot for the quinoa. I liked that especially the healed cheeks. the Aubergine-Zalock this time had a tasty taste. for caramelized swirl (quite sweet) or sautéed spinat (rather bland). also the hummus beiruty without the chilis. that was a lot of fun. the third time I came, I got the jackfruit shawarma. was good, not the sharp one I liked, but the portion was quite small and not the filling in consideration of the price. the riders were a fairly small part, although they were well done. the jackfruit had a lot of taste. I have a side of fried plantains, which I didn't think was good. They were barely ripe, pretty simple. would have come back here, but I would not order the schawarma or the plan owners again. ————— this place was very recommended to me. it was surprised to find that it is quite small. but eating and service are amazing. really good portion sizes. had garnished the dynamit that is one of their signature dishes. very realistic and tasteful. the Aubergine-Zaaalock was also recommended. not as good as the garnel. was quite spicy and not smokey. came with something really good pita brot to mop the whole sauce. the Ghife-Brot was my absolute favorite thing! so flick and chewing. in any case they go back, only because of this alone, had their Moroccan pancakes dessert. also very good. uses Ghife-Brot, which is filled with biscoff spread. that alone would be sweet, but the egg that is served with it is not sweet, so went very well. especially the presentation of this was very nice."

Antillean

➤ 74 Blackfriars Road, London, United Kingdom

Fish • Drinks • European • Cocktail

"I found this restaurant of google on the look for a Caribbean restaurant for my birthday and few up and choose this for the menu as I vegetarian and my friend like fish. the photo line is not the restaurant do justice. my friend was disappointed that they had only one fish on the menu they didn't like. I spoke to a worker who was more than helpful and apologised to me and advised my friend during his preparation. he gave me a cocktail for my birthday and my friend a glass prossco and made sure that we were happy, other employees were very helpful and the engagement of the atmosphere was very nice. I was surprised it wasn't packed. I mentioned that to the employee who was so helpful that he could induce himself, but unfortunately I forgot his name. I am from hertfordshire and my friend east london and had never heard of it and he should promote the restaurant in this opposite and more. my only mistake would be the portion size of my friend like her to eat and she was still hungry, I am not a.biger eater and would agree to know that it is alcate, but they want to go satisfied and the prices are not cheap, I am more than happy to pay for quality, but I would expect quantity. but I will recommend the restaurant for family and friends, but my friend would not be due to the portion sizes."

Ormos Greek And Deli

➤ 105-107 Talbot Road, London, United Kingdom

Meat • Wine • Greek • Brunch

"It’s rare to find a restaurant that is perfect for solo dining, hanging out with friends, or going on a date. The open layout features a section that is slightly elevated, creating distinct areas where different groups can enjoy a cozy atmosphere reminiscent of a living room, while still being private enough for comfortable conversation without having to shout. The quality of the food is impressive; for vegetarians, the menu is quite accommodating, as many Mediterranean restaurants often lack meat and dairy options. I have to rave about their small dishes – they are absolutely delicious! The wine selection is excellent in terms of quality, and the staff is always ready to offer suggestions and assistance whenever needed. I've only been there twice, but I'm definitely going back!"

Privée

➤ 2 Beauchamp Place Knightsbridge London, SW3 1NG, SW3 1NZ, United Kingdom

Halal • Drinks • Lebanese • Cocktail

"My first visit to LayaLina was on Valentine's Day and it was surprisingly quiet with only two other couples present during the two hours we were there. The food was excellent, although we were limited to the Valentine's set menu. The waitress did allow me to order one item from the a la carte menu, but unfortunately one of the dessert options was not available. This was disappointing considering the restaurant's quiet atmosphere and the fact that it was a set menu. The Valentine's set menu was priced at £85 per person, whereas on any other day the same choices would have cost £60 per person. I found the markup to be excessive and unnecessary."

Lucky Cat By Gordon Ramsay

➤ 10 Grosvenor Square, London W1K 6JP, United Kingdom

Fish • Full • Asian • Drinks

"A truly mesmerising dining experience. Me and a group of 8 others came here for a birthday meal and we can all honestly say it was outstanding! From the cocktails to the service to the food. It really lives up to Gordon Ramsay’s deserved title we expected nothing less ! We ordered to the staffs recommendations to ensure we got the best of the best of what lucky cat had to offer. A really authentic classy atmosphere. The flower arrangement on the outside really sets mood from the start. My recommendation food wise would be the JFC chicken, the lamb chops and the fried rice. cannot recommend the fried rice enough ! It was such a simple dish done extremely well, I didn’t know rice could be anymore delicious! The cocktails were very smooth and you can tell they are made with the finest alcohols. Overall 10 10 and 5 full stars"
