European inspired restaurants in London

“Absolutely delicious food with exceptional service. We went here on a sunny weekend afternoon, and the atmosphere is great especially with the beautiful sunlight. We had the Monkfish cassuola and beef ragu pappardelle, and both were just delicious! Staffs were very friendly and helpful and the design of the place was really charming.”

“Top end Food, Wine list, Staff and ambient. Best secretive place to have group lunch work events! You can tell the Food was treated with Respect, Love and Passion! Thank you chef Sean and the team for making our dinning experience extra special and inspiring! Keep it up!”

“Great pizza at a great price. You have got to try their special if was amazing.”

“The menu here is wonderful and stands out to the other menus in other Japanese restaurants. The food is amazing, the lobster sliders and the yuzu cheesecake are my personal highlights! What really makes this place special is the service and the team, they are nothing short of a 10/10”

“We booked one of the private dining rooms for a business dinner for 10 people. Communication with the team ahead of the dinner was very good - they went out of their way to accommodate all of our requests - and the food and service on the day were excellent, too. I would definitely recommend it!”

“Lovely birthday dinner. This is the third time I've been here and it never disappoints. Service was as always excellent. Our waitress was kind and attentive. She even sang me Happy Birthday. The table next to us sang along and that made the atmosphere even more special. I was truly touched. Thanks to the staff and everyone that made the occasion special. Food was excellent too. Here you always start off with bread and butter on the house, which I think really should be more commonplace at restaurants. I had ratatouille as my main, a traditional French dish which was delicious and nutritious, with a great variety of vegetables. The sweets too were good. The chocolate delice in particular was soft and rather chocolatey without being too sweet. The berry salad was a healthy and naturally delicious dessert for the summer. This place has marked special occasions of mine with such solid service, fantastic food and elegant décor. Well worth recommending.”

“Loved our dinner here. Fresh seafood and lovely staff. Decor is very cozy too.”

“A beautifully decorated Parisian Cafe located in St. John's Wood. It is open all day and serves breakfast till 11.30 am. Lunch is available from 11.30 am onwards. Staff is very friendly and attentive despite the crowds. It is a fairly informal cafe with a good selection of food and dessert. Children are welcome. However, be aware trying to find parking in the St. John's Wood neighbourhood could sometimes be a challenge.”

“One of the best restaurant in Central London. Had visited today with my office team for Christmas party. Ambience is amazing and you will love to click pictures in every corner. Food is mind blowing. I have clicked few pics of the main course and desert served here. This restaurant is in 5 mins walking distance to Green Park station.”

“Nice French brasserie. We had a simple lunch of salad and artichoke. It was good. Nice ambiance. Great service. My only complaint is that the men’s restroom smelled of stale urine. There’s really no excuse for that.”

“Excellent and interesting food. It's really amazing to see a French restaurant produce such good vegan options. Top service, particularly Chanel, the Head Sommelier, who was fun and very knowledgeable. Pictures don't do the food justice due to low light.”

“Great night, great food, great atmosphere, great service, great view. The food was delicious and came quickly and was hot and superbly presented. The signature cocktails all have a very unique and interesting way of being served. Have a look at my videos (not on the review, uploaded to their Google page) to see the ones we had. My one point was the lampshade near us was skew and couldn't be corrected. It bugged me (see the last picture). I understand it's a minor thing and I may be the only one who noticed, but it played on my mind)”

“If you are looking for a really nice place to have a breakfast or brunch with an amazing food this is the right place. The pancakes and also the French toast are amazing. The location as well is perfect, close to Borough Market. I will come back for sure.”

“Cute place for a special date night went for dinner. They food was tasty,ample and beautifully presented. The drinks cocktail were very tasty. One thing to say they were accommodating and aware of my allergies. Only thing I would say for dinning in winter go for inside dinning.”

“Great manager and great staff. As I’m a vegetarian, they recommend me what I can have (met my dietary requirements). I’m extremely happy and the service and food. Thank you German Doner Kebab Tooting!”

“Food was absolutely delicious. Service was excellent and there’s a good reason why this place is hard to get a table at. Great venue, albeit seating is a little cramped (as table of 3) and it’s quite crowded. But made slightly better by the high ceilings and grand experience inside.”

“Visiting this restaurant was a real pleisure. The design and ambience of the place is beautiful, classy and cosy. The staff is helpful and patient. The food was absolutely amazing. We have started off with the French onion soup, which was absolutely flavourful combined with the bread and the melted cheese. The main was moules-frites, with mussels, that had a very soft texture with a delicious sauce. The mayonnaise that you can choose with the frites is creamy and very flavourful, something that tasted to me authentic. The other main was a rather light yet well dressed celeriac steak with a lentil sauce vierge. Lastly the desserts, mixed berry pavlova -  which was sweet sour creamy and crunchy. Whilst the chocolate fondant,  warm chocolate was soft and gooey with some vanilla ice cream to find balance. It was a beautiful experience!”

“Worth going to for the fish bouillabaisse alone! The broth was divine. The staff are an absolute delight. And, the ambience is relaxed and intimate. We'll definitely go again!”

“Such a great find, lived near Paddington for years but found this place on a visit. Had fish and chips excellently done but what was amazing is the service and employees they were super friendly and nice. We were even offered a courtesy coffee after our meal. Menu has a variety of meals will visit again”

“I came here a few weeks ago with my boyfriend, the food was delicious and so were the drinks. I’m always reluctant of pub food, but this tasted like genuine freshly made food! The atmosphere is lovely and so were the girls at the bar!”

“We had a good breakfast. There was an interesting selection of Georgian dishes and some breakfast classics. Everything we had was well-cooked, tasty and attractively presented. The staff were helpful and friendly. We’ll definitely go back”

“I have went here for the last 3 years and tried most things of the menu. No other Indian comes anywhere close in my mind. Staff are friendly and always offer a drink on the house at the end of my meal. Highly recommend!!”

“We didn’t have a reservation but the team were so accommodating and quickly found us a table. The restaurant felt very relaxed, and we had a delicious feast of tapas! We can’t wait to come back and try one of their paellas”

“Really lovey tasting dishes. We had their lamb chops, spare ribs, rice and fries. All were really nice. The staff provided a good and friendly service too.”

“This little gem is right around the corner from me and makes their orders fresh as they come in. I ordered the chicken vindaloo and lamb samosas. Good value for an authentic meal and friendly customer service. Can’t beat that for a local takeout place!”

“I’m giving this place a 5 just for the orange and carrot cake. I’m a big cake lover and I was impressed. It was one of the best carrot cakes I have ever had. The cream cheese frosting was the perfect ratio to the cake. It was super delicious and I’m definitely returning just for this.”

“What a lovely experience we had here. We celebrated our 4th anniversary and from start to end it was just amazing. The food was great, the staff were lovely and professional. Highly recommended”

“Great ambience with the flowers everywhere. Service is personable. Food is good (fish and chips was top notch-crispy fish with delicious peas, fries are well cooked) but slightly expensive. Smallish restaurant so best to book. Charming both in the day and at night.”

“Good friendly service lovely food highly recommended”

“So my girlfriend of 17 years fancied a french restaurant and while it's not traditional French food the quality is fantastic. The staff were very friendly and helpful. We got chatting with staff about all sorts of things and we felt very welcomed. They gave advice on the menu and we decided to try the calamari and baked cheese which were divine. There was a good portion of both and that cheese was so tasty. The mains were lobster pasta and the sauce was rich and hearty, the lobster was a good size. The wagyu sandwich was a good portion with tender beef. The desserts were so fresh, we loved the millefleur the cream used was so wholesome, the crème brulee was again this crème that hits the spot. They were so nice they gave us one of the desserts as it was my girlfriend birthday. Very kind of them. I highly recommend here for meals. Please press like if you found my review helpful. Thank you”
