Mediterranean cocktails in London

“One of my favorite restaurants in london for sure. Great Mediterranean recipes with a kick. I highly recommend the lamb chops, the flavor is incredible and the cabbage on the side it’s heavenly. Very nice reserved vibe, perfect for a date! 40-50£ pp”

“Wow!! My friend and I feel so lucky to have found this restaurant while on vacation here in London. The food was absolutely amazing (I had the moussaka and she had the lamb kleftiko) and they were honestly the best Greek dishes we’ve ever had. The owner Alex is such a kind person and you can tell he has put his whole heart into this place. The atmosphere is great and the staff very nice. We will be making the 9 hour flight back to London some time soon just to eat at four lanterns again :)”

“I loved it, the service is super fast, and friendly. I had a chicken gyros wrap, it was so juicy and tasty, almost melting in your mouth. Usually I don’t fancy the wrap bread, but theirs was nice and fluffy. Yummy!”

“Charming & Beautiful Sicilian Bistro with incredible fresh food. Everything was greatly seasoned 10/10. I highly recommend the Sicilian sharing platter made by the chef; I believe it's available every day from 5pm. We also enjoyed a good choice of cocktails served by the friendly and attentive staff. Overall a great Sicilian experience, and an amazing atmosphere. We will definitely come back again!”

“What a meal! This place is an absolute gem. Super friendly service from everyone, wonderful fresh and tasty food. The breakfast menu was fantastic. The cakes are all homemade (vegan friendly) and the coffee is delicious. Will be back to try tge lunch menu. I can't believe I have only just found this place. A new regular for sure.”

“Best place in Harrow , food taste amazing and what a great customer service. I have been eating at Lokma several times and I'm always very satisfie . On my last visit we got surprise by lovely Dimitri , he arrived to our table with our favourite starters and coffee . What a great customer service is that ?!!! Highly recommended”

“Delicious Greek food, great wine, housed in a really cosy historic setting. I went here with friends but it would also be a great date spot. Most importantly, the owner takes pride in the quality of the food and drink, and it’s important to support small businesses in lieu of all the chains cropping up that don’t treat customers with the same care. I’m vegetarian and there were great option, I highly recommend the stuffed peppers or moussaka. Thank you for a lovely evening!”

“A top-quality restaurant offering a delicious menu with excellent service. The food was well cooked and nicely presented. Once the meals were served we were left alone to enjoy the flavours. It is located next to the river which encourages a relaxed experience. Good vegetarian options as well.”

“Absolutely brilliant! One of the best Italian places in London. Try their specials. Definitely worth it. Very attentive staff who make the experience even more memorable.”

“Good local Spanish restaurant. Great choice and top service, recommend.”

“Fresh clean and great food . Staff always smiling and very cheerful. Recommend it”

“Friendly owners and the food was fresh and lovely as well! Will eat here again!”

“Easy going restaurant but super happy with all the dishes. Kuazu Shish Kabab (lamb) is to die for. Very refreshing salad and condiments. Complimentary Baklava and fresh mint tea are wonderful finish to a wonderful meal. Keep coming back every time I visit London. Special thanks to Acmhad (sorry for the spelling) for a friendly and fast service.”

“Best cafe in burnt oak highly recommended staff r polite and friendly and food is top”

“Do not miss this tucked away gem! Absolutely delicious food and brilliant service. Decor was beautiful and being off the main road it was quiet and had a chilled atmosphere.”

“Delicious Italian place! We are glad we found such a great place in London. Food is amazing and portions are generous. The pasta is home made which definitely increases the value of this place. Prices are reasonable. I can’t wait to come back again!”

“Was walking next to the venue and decided to give it a go. Pleasantly surprised although the place is quite small. Nice cocktails and very affordable food choices. All members of staff were very attentive.”

“Despite living in the area, this was our first time to sofalino. We have been missing out!!!! Absolutely delicious food, friendly atmosphere and wonderful staff. We had such a fantastic experience and can't wait to go back!! They also serve melonchello which made my night :)”

“My Nan and I always go to this restaurant. Food is amazing, and really reasonably priced. Staff are always so welcoming and kind, particularly Beri who usually serves us. She is a great server, always makes us laughs and makes sure everything is okay. Highly recommend this restaurant.”

“Meraki have picked up where they left off, fantastic food and service! We were devasted to hear when they closed during the pandemic, so went for our little girls 4th birthday and was greeted with 5* treatment throughout, from service to food, excellent!!! Highly recommended, won’t be disappointed…”

“Great portions and amazing food! Fairly priced; each dish is around £15-20 and the portion is large. Service was good and the restaurant had a nice ambience, 10/10 would recommend. If you are ordering a lot of dishes, be prepared for a bit of a wait though!”

“We have been coming to this restaurant regularly for the last 8 years and is a lovely place to go every time we are in London. The food is amazing and the staff is very friendly, especially the boss. The place is well decorated and the service overall is great and not expensive. We love their rice pudding.”

“Delicious Somali food! My friend brought me here and it was the best restaurant meal I had during the trip. We had a soup, then a platter of chicken and beef served on perfectly cooked rice. Accompanied by salad and a super fresh and spicy sauce, let’s not forget the banana. We wanted to try also the date cake, but it wasn’t available anymore, lucky us I guess because we were already stuffed. Now I want to try their other dishes.”

“Great food and service. Good portion and great atmosphere”

“Takeaway fish and chips are on a different level way above any where else that I have had fish and chips. Excellent couldn't fault it and the staff are friendly and accommodating. All freshly cooked in front of you.”

“We have been to this restaurant twice now and each time the service and friendly staff led by Sybil was fantastic. The team and Sybil are very attentive and the food is beautiful. The restaurant is clean very spacious and has beautiful decor . The prices are extremely competitive to other Turkish restaurants we have been too in Hornchurch. We live in Emerson park and this restaurant is very convenient to walk to. It surly is making an impact in Hornchurch as the restaurant was busy today . It is child friendly and there are disabled access and a disabled toilet . We sat outside and it was very hot sunshine but the canopies made good shade and comfortable seating. In fact we have booked again with Sybil today for the bank holiday weekend to go back as it is my wife’s birthday . We highly recommend this super restaurant. Thank you Sybil and team Ian & sharon”

“Last minute decision to book a table. Greeted by the team and took us up stairs to a lovely table. Great lunch menu, seriously good prices for St Albans and lovely staff. We will be back!!”

“Been there last Friday and food was amazing, I only took the picture of my dish but I always believe my friends got better choices on their menu of the day on another paper. Staff were very friendly and helpful, and environment is good for either dating or having a nice time with friends/family.”

“On my most recent visit, I went with a friend and we had a lovely time. It was a Thursday night and even though we were there quite early (6.45pm), it was really quiet which surprised me. However, I’d still recommend to book as it’s been much busier when I’ve been before. We didn’t have any starters (my friend’s decision - I thought the burrata sounded great!). My main was the crab from the specials board, which was the perfect size and definitely not stingy with the crab. Really tasty. For dessert we shared the tiramisu which was creamy and light and I loved the flecks of crumbled amaretti biscuits on top, and the lemon sorbet. It’s hard to know what to say about lemon sorbet as it’s rare it’s not good. This was good. Prices were fair - my crab was about £16/17 and desserts were £6/7 Great for a cosy catch up, or date night.”

“Uanama bellll!! Top, Top, Top!! Cafe' Amisha is the best Italian Restaurant in South-East London. All ingredients come directly from Italy, and all the chefs are Italian. All the waiters and Paola are incredibly kind and attentive. The main Chef, Leo, aka "The Maestro", is impressive. He cooks traditional recipes from Apulia and nationwide Italian food. Fregola, Pizza (ask for tuna and cipolla!) and fish are top at Amisha's cafe. At Easter time, ask for a Pastiera, a traditional Southern Italy Easter cake made. Maestro's pastiera is as good as my mum's. They also have a shop for Italian food which has really good stuff and Italian delicatessens. The owner, Francesco, is amazing. He is the most friendly and the nicest person ever. He is a natural people person, always smiling and happy. He also saved my life during the first lockdown and the food shortage. I bougth everything I needed there. He and his staff also delivered food to my place at any hour, including regular fresh fish deliveries.. He is also actively volunteering to help the NHS and the local community. A living hero, in a few words. He truly deserves a half-body statue at the nearby SPA garden.”
