“This is a very relaxed and cosy restaurant with really good food and good service my husband says it’s best Persian food in London. They also have good vegetarian options. Really good freshly made bread.”

“Went for a quick meal with some mates and I have to say this was a really nice joint. Modern decor and great contemporary Mediterranean food. Service was swift and customer service was impeccable”

“Lovely place! Plenty of seating, the decor is very nice and cosey. The lady who owns it is just so lovely and welcoming and to top it off the food is delicious and reasonable priced and the special teas are so tasty. (Wishing tree is a nice touch too) Will definitely be going back”

“I was impressed about the quality of the dishes and the atmosphere. I saw reviews about the music being too loud or but there was nothing like that when we got there. We had tripe soup, turkey soup, chicken with polenta, pizza, and papanași and I can say all of them were amazing. Would definitely go again.”

“I’m Greek living in UK and was looking a place where can I have a Greek lunch and find out this corner that made me travel back home with their generous portion of mix grill oh and how can not mention their tzatziki sauce you’ll love it ! Kind staff that know how to treat their costumers. They wanted to treat me a dessert as well but didn’t have the time and the space in my stomach so for sure I’ll visit again to try their gyros as it was looking delicious and the dessert of course !! ‘Ps the 2nd photo is been uploaded as a proof’”

“Ordered via Ubereats. Ticks all the boxes- good taste, good price and fast delivery”

“Amazing cafe! It’s my go to always lovely service so helpful and food is amazing”

“Great Place to get some Indian food . When we ordered we actually for a discount for picking it up ourselves. Great choice, great pallet of flavours. Will most definitely order here again”

“I've been twice to this place. The second time even better than the first one. They really are seafood experts. Loved it. Today I had oysters and lobster. We were lucky enough to get even some sangria. Highly recommended. I suggest to call to book a table in advance, just in case :)”

“The best peri peri chicken ever the marinade was delicious.”

“Very nice food; ordered off Just Eat and used code J4GJ33T for a good percentage off!”

“This restaurant is superb. Everything is homemade, even the chilli and garlic sauces, and the meat is wonderfully spiced and flavoursome. It is family run and operated and the pride that goes into the food and service is apparent. I would not hesitate to dine here again and to recommend this place to friends and family.”

“The best Chinese food ever. We have been ordering here over 3 years and never had any issues. The food is incredibly tasty and delicious. Jenny is a star and the most kind and wonderful person. This is my favourite Chinese place in the whole world.”

“As always great food and service if visiting Croydon want a place to eat definitely recommend this venue”

“Tasty authentic Indian food! Great service, good ambiance, tasty finger licking food! Try the crispy okra or Tai pai paneer! Manchou soups…..Its a great place for spicy indo Hakka food. Will keep visiting again and again!”

“Ate in with family for a birthday meal. All the curries, rice, pappadums and chutneys were excellent. We tried the korma, tikka masala, dopiaza, bhuna and biryani. A few pieces of chicken were tougher than I like but I felt the curries made up for it didn't take anything away from my enjoyment of the meal. Service is excellent from every staff member we interacted with. One dish I wasn't very sure about was the Leemu ice cream. It comes in a very well presented pot so is fun to eat, however the consistency was harder and icier than I expected. It was more like a hard sorbet than ice cream. So whilst my meal wasn't absolutely perfect, I did enjoy the overall experience and felt that it was great value. Our total bill was on par with ordering from a take away.”

“Just visited during my break for a quick special fried rice and was shocked it only cost £3.20 for a large one! To my surprise it was really good, full of meat and very tasty. I will definitely visit again, thank you! UPDATE I popped in again and tried the King prawns with mushrooms only £4.20 and fantastic really tasty prawns, wish this place was close to where I live!”

“I love this coffee shop it’s based on a part of Portugal called madeira they are the only shop that sells my favourite sea food limpets (lapas)”

“Best Chinese around! I’ve tried a few others around the area but nothing beats dans garden. The shredded beef with chilli is amazing so a must try. Good size portions and everything I order always tastes good.”

“Celebrated a 92 birthday and it was good! We were a party of over 30 and had our own room. The staff were well organised and Freya looked after us beautifully. Thanks also to her colleague who helped at times. The food and drinks were great and we enjoyed ourselves. A bonus about the location is that it was just next door to Coombe Gardens where we could take photos. Overall, a very good way to celebrate an event. Thanks and great job to the staff. We look forward to returning.”
