Chef in Surbiton

“As always, superb food... superb quality! Never ever mediocre.. always spot on! After 30 years, always our favourite!”

“Very nice pub, with decent beer and happy hour cocktails. Really nice decor inside and lovely big seating area outside. Convenient location. Reasonable prices.”

“Great take away, we live around the corner and always go here”

“Booked online giving details of our visit and our celebrations and preferred seating! Brilliant seat looking out to river! Then Gemma our waitress introduced herself and she was amazing! Attentive but not overbearing or hovering over us! Food stunning! Then our desserts arrived with chocolate written Happy Birthday for my husband and I had the Happy Anniversary one! (Yes .....we did get married on his birthday!) Atmosphere and music great and sat outside by the river relaxing for a while after with drinks just relaxing! It was the day of the train strike and Uber and taxis letting us down but Siobhan stopped what she was doing to get us a cab firm and that was successful! I last came here many many years ago on the same date to celebrate and did not enjoy the experience at all.....sitting near to kitchen which had a swing door and heard shouting and offensive language every time that door opened which completely ruined our day so you can imagine it took a lot to come back....but took a chance again as heard through the grapevine how nice it is! So glad we did and look forward very much to further visits!! Thankyou again!”

“Lovely food (the grilled dumplings are to die for!). Delivered so quickly. Have tried a number of Chinese takeaways in the area, and always go back to China Chef, as they are so good.”

“Very delicious sweets and I love the new hot dog and also the samosa tastes very good 10/10 staff very kind”

“The service was great and food was enjoyable. The guy who served us was excellent, making sure our family had a nice table in the more quiet corner in the back after a long day of travel.”

“Welcoming hot tea with beautiful flower was absolutely pleasure to start dining. All plates were displayed gorgeous and the taste is even better. I am a serious sashimi & sushi fan and haven’t had much places like Sushi Hero in London where providing this high quality of tuna sashimi as you can tell by freshness. It just melt in your mouth. Other hot dishes were omg level of its taste!!!! Staff were so warm & friendly thank you and I am definitely visiting again soon!”

“We came here on a Thursday evening for an anniversary dinner and it was an excellent experience. Service was very attentive and friendly. We ordered the normal tasting menu and the Vegetarian / Pescatarian tasting menu with matched wines and throughout the food was on a very high level. I spent 1.5 years in Paris and have to say that the French Table is on the same level with the best French restaurants I dined at. Definitely worth the high price tag. Will come again!”

“Wow. What a wonderful concept. Just like having a personal chef ... Delicious food in gorgeous, tiny, bijou designer setting. Chef Giulio excels and pretty much cooks to order and in your time frame; and lovely Luisa is his perfect front of house. Extensive and unusual wine list Nowhere like it. A must do experience. Highly recommended.”

“We had a large breakfast and added a few bits. Was a nice cafe breakfast. The lady serving us was really nice too”

“Amazing. Was blown away by the quality of the food - not just how it tastes but the quality of presentation. I've got a photo but it doesn't really do it justice. It's very understated too - the café looks very normal from the outside but the food really is top-tier. Staff are lovely too.”

“Tasty homemade meals. Lovely owner, very helpful and polite. Tasty menu, tabulleh salad, baba ganouj delicious. Tasty chicken shawarma and falafel plate. Really tasty meal, reasonable price £50 for 4 people including drinks. Place worth to visit.”

“Lovely little Italian restaurant in Surbiton. Despite arriving early to try and get a table, the place has a really good vibe and not to mention good food. (Place was fully booked but accepted walk in entries if there was last minute availability) Menu consists of starters, pizza choices, pasta dishes, specials and desserts. There are gluten free pasta and pizza base available, these are not made on the premises and is made by a separate company. There is a small additional charge for this. Pizza is made fresh in their impressively large pizza oven located in the restaurant. We were sat at the bar area around this pizza oven and it was lovely to see the pizza masters doing their thing with stretching the pizza dough. Great selection of alcoholic and non alcoholic drinks too. The place was clean and staff friendly and helpful. Will return.”

“I'm telling you! I LOVE this place. The dishes tastes are heavenly and the atmosphere & staff are fantastic. I love to come back again for the evening socially with my friends/ family.”

“Great food - had a mixture of starters as a meal and it was lovely. Service was great too, waitress was very welcoming and attentive. Highly recommended.”

“A delightful, friendly team, always freshly cooked, and great value. We feel lucky to have such a great local take away!”

“I dined in last week and ordered a selection of dishes to share between us, the waitress was lovely and the food came in good time, the crunchy tiger roll and the mochi ice cream were my favourite dishes very well made, will be visiting again!”

“Amazing place to taste exceptionally delicious food. Staff here is so friendly and welcoming. Would definitely recommend to others. Can’t wait to get back there.”

“Very good food and service! Congratulations to the chef!”

“Great food and service. It's also cheap for London standards. I suppose Indian food in London is most reliable of all foods. The portions were big and was done very well. Waiters are very helpful and attentive too. Highly recommend!”

“Really good meal and great service. Had sesame prawn on toast for starter... one of the best I've had. Then beef salad and sizzling beef for mains. Followed by Mandarin souffle... all good!!!”

“We come in for meals regularly, this place is the best chicken shop on the planet!! Staff are very reliable and always friendly. 20/10 highly recommended and have been going there for a few years.”

“We had a wonderful meal celebrating our anniversary.. Food was amazing..stuffed mushrooms starter /Calves liver main course with vegetables/ Home made Tiramisu.. Staff were so helpful and looked after us ..wonderful atmosphere thank you I would definitely recommend this restaurant .”

“The staff were so friendly here, and the service was perfect. The food was delicious with generous portion sizes! We had a lovely time.”

“Great little Japanese/Korean restaurant. Friendly service and freshly cooked food at very reasonable prices. We had two of the lunchtime set menu options and both were good. I recommend the spicy chicken. We washed it down with a warm carafe of sake. Highly recommended...we will go again soon.”

“Very good food - excellent quick service. Well done to the team.”

“Me and my sister adore this place. It’s in-front of M&S tolworth high street. From authentic Vietnamese pho to taro bubble tea it really hits that craving. The owner is wonderful and friendly who never fails to make the experience that extra bit nicer. It’s nice to have a taste of Vietnamese cuisine that is authentic.”

“Long term customer, no complaints, reliable tasty well made food. Every dish makes other restaurants be put to shame, keep up the Michelin quality food! Thank you Mr Chois!”
