Family friendly restaurants in London

“Vesuvio's did not disappoint us for our Valentines meal. Great portion sizes and excellent friendly service with a smile. I had the bruschetta to start which was so good, the balance of the garlic and dressing with the sharpness of the tomatoes was perfect. For mains I wanted the seafood risotto which wasn't on the special valentines menu but they were so accommodating and said they would give me it anyway and it was delicious. Perfectly cooked and perfectly emulsified making it decadent and creamy also very generous with the seafood. For dessert I had Tiramisu, again proper nice and creamy. Lovely soft biscuits soaked in coffee that tasted so clean, cold and fresh. We will be coming back 100% Keep it up Vesuvio's you're doing such a good job at creating an amazing, relaxing atmosphere.”

“Could not recommend this place more!! The food was extremely flavourful and all very well done. However, what also is extremely important for me and my family is customer service/ customer experience, and this was also amazing, everyone we spoke to was very attentive and kind and prices were very affordable . Will definitely be coming back with my family!”

“Amazing new restaurant on Askew Road. Fantastic Sunday lunch. The host and owner Giulia is very knowledgeable and friendly. The food is delicious. Traditional and yet original Italian cuisine. Fresh homemade pasta and high quality ingredients. Highly recommended!!! Can’t wait to go back soon…”

“Loved it. The Korean BBQ is brilliant and well priced. We took our own wine as the corkage was only £2 but I had a Korean beer which was very tasty. Service was impeccable, very polite and lots of questions and able to help with our questions. Great experience having dinner cooked within inches of you and a cooker plate per table!”

“Great food, lovely atmosphere, very friendly! Highly recommend, the chicken satay was absolutely delicious!”

“I don’t normally leave reviews but the food here exceed my expectations. I ordered take out and even by the time I got home the food was warm, the pizza and everything else I’ve ordered was fresh. My family and I really enjoyed it!! I prefer this place over any other place in my area.”

“Lovely little cocktail bar, right in the centre of St Katharine Docks. Worth a visit. Nice tapas style food too.”

Good quality meat, delicious mash - what can I say - really brought back childhood memories! The staff is so friendly and nice feels like so nice and welcoming - would love to go back again! All the best team and thank you!”

“Delicious food at a decent price. The portions are quite well sized as well. Would definitely recommend if you’re in the area”

“Went here for the first time on Wednesday and was back on Friday for my wife's birthday. It is in a different league to you standard Indian. The chef is brilliant, a true gentleman and produces outstanding food. I can't recommend it enough.”

“Having been ordering from here for years now, since they opened! I am half Persian so know about good Persian food as my dad is an amazing cook and this restaurant has top quality food and it’s always cooked to perfection every time I order or dine in. The koobideh and joojeh is my favourite but for a stew I always have gormeh sabzi. The chips are really nice too. I have also had catering from them for a party and as usual they gave a great service! Highly recommend.”

“Great family atmosphere and authentic tasty Italian food,beef lasagne was 10/10!”

“An amazing place to dine, you can name it, a welcoming smile and very friendly staff, mouth watering foods that taste really good, I had 1 appetizer and 2 mains which were spot on. Really I have zero comment in all three dishes. I tried the rice balls, the lamb chops and the cauliflower steak. A can easily say that I will come back again here. I hope you continue with the same level guys and good luck.”

“First time trying Ethiopian cuisine, went here clearly because of the reviews. Small place and area doesn’t look very welcoming but let that not fool you as authentic feel, family atmosphere and definitely home made food which was delicious and very friendly staff are 10/10. Very recommended, don’t forget to order spiced tea after food Thank you, will be back one day.”

“To start with I don’t usually leave reviews unless I find it necessary. But I passed by today and noticed a new shop near where I live. I said: I’ll try this tonight. The experience started from second 1. Staff were so polite and friendly! what I thought it was a take away shop is actually a restaurant (you can Take Away too), decor is outstanding. Opened a month ago so everything looks new and shinny, on top of that they also have a patio that you can use once its refurbishment is finished. I decided to get take away but I will come soon and sit in the restaurant soon. My food was excellent, the lamb shawarma is to die for, I can’t wait to try other items of the menu. Already forgot the names of the staff I met but very lovely people. Will visit soon as I live in the neighbourhood. Also they open til late. Highly recommended”

“Very nice food Very nice and friendly place”

“I arrived at the Dokis restaurant with my family, without prior knowledge of the business, let alone the food they sell. The risk I took with my family to eat at Dokis restaurant was really worth the time and money spent. Aside the good food, Dokis staffs were respectful, loving and attentive. In a nutshell, Dokis restaurant is a high quality and decent restaurant I would recommend anyone to visit. If you do, you might look for me and thank me afterwards.”

“Great Afghani hostmanship coupled with uniquely Afghan food. Had vegetarian Afghan food - awesome new experience for my palate!! Kudos to the Manager for retaining his Afghan hostmanship in lovely London!!”

“Amazing location, just opposite Bromley south station! Staff were very friendly, generous and caring! Food was phenomenal, portion sizes were very generous ! Very luxurious and atmospheric inside, feels like a very expensive restaurant but all the prices are very good and reasonable for what portions you get! Music was good, not too loud, so we could still talk amongst ourselves, We went on their opening day and for their first day it was a very good experience, I would for sure recommend this place to anyone! I’ll for sure be back again, not once, not twice but many times in the near future!”

“A true family run authentic restaurant. The owners put their hearts and souls into it and it really shows in the quality of the food, service, and atmosphere.”

“nice albanian traditional kitchen”

“Very nice good and good portion sizes. Friendly staff, nice decor, worth a try!”

“We were meant to go here a couple of years ago then the pandemic hit so it got delayed. It was tricky to book as it's so popular but we got a table for lunch and decided to each have a different tasting menu so we could try everything on offer. The service was brilliant, the food was sublime. The offer of a cheese course before the desserts was very welcome, and the selection of cheeses was great.”

“Delicious restaurant! We stopped here for lunch and the food was amazing, the portions were great and so were the prices. The staff were also so friendly and that just made the whole experience so much better. 10/10 would be back again”

“Had a lovely lunchtime ramen as saw this place just opened up. Looks lovely inside. Very relaxed and chilled vibe. Staff are very attentive and fast service. I had a tonkotsu ramen. I've eaten a lot of ramens and this was really good. Very tasty and fresh. I did have a lot of ginger in mine which is fine because I like it but may be too much for others. Will be back”

“What an amazing place that has opened just on our doorstep. My 2 children (5 and 7) were treated like VIPs and the food and drinks (especially the Nutella milkshake) were divine. We will definitely be visiting often”

“Quirky little cafe-bar. Had a perfectly nice pot of tea and a really good pain chocolat. I was the only customer in and me and the owner Ken spent the whole time chatting, mostly about photography. Many of his are on the walls, along with several other photographers. There's also a lot of music instruments hanging on the walls and ceiling, Mozart-themed chocolates and other gifts (as the name might suggest) imported from Vienna, classical music playing. Overally a nice interesting place to sit and while away some time taking in the overall ambience.”

“This is the place where you can find different style of wrap.(Greek style,German style&Turkish style)Their food is really best quality as much as taste”
