Unique food experience in Surbiton

“Traditional style Cafe with great choice and great food. Really clean , with friendly and helpful staff. Great little cafe”

“I really like this pub, nothing flashy but dogs and kids were welcome, and it felt like a good mix of locals and people in to watch the football. Plenty of space, lots of tables. Would visit again.”

“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!”

“First time ordering from this restaurant and have to say how good the food was. Really tasty with just the right balance of spices and heat. Will definitely be trying more of the menu in the future.”

“Absolutely adore Kokoro ever since I moved to Kingston a few years ago. They’ve recently opened up shop in Surbiton and I’m so glad they have as I live locally and simply cannot fault these guys. The food is fresh, absolutely delicious and the portion size is always generous. They are consistently great with both hot dishes & cold foods (sushi / salads) and 100% worth every penny. It’s a great lunch time spot with plenty of different options to choose from as well as being pretty affordable for a “meal out”. I recently ordered a sushi party platter* for my household for my birthday and it was out of this world! Will continue to eat at Kokoro Surbiton and would encourage anyone who passes by or lives in the area to try their food ASAP! * I specifically requested for salmon sashimi but their original platter includes both Salmon & Tuna!”

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

“i did not eat in, i had a take away. shop itself was really nice along. value for money as well. keep up the goodwork”

“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 shared the Brown Butter Smash Burger and The Elvis. Both burgers were delicious, Brown Butter was the favourite. Best burger I've had in a long time. Rosemary and thyme fries were excellent too. Will definitely order again. Staff were nice too. Great to have such a good burger place in Tolworth”

“I have been taking Teddie to see becky and the team since he was a puppy. The team make teddie feel at ease, his grooms have always been exactly what we need/or want, the premises is always clean and tidy, the team will always communicate with you and remind you of the next appointment which makes my life a lot easier! and of course they are friendly and accommodating. What makes this place different is that it is not just a dog groomers, its a community which is so nice to be a part of and I can rely and trust 100% We cannot recommend k9 Paws n Play enough!”

“Our favorite local Italian. Gianni is a great gentleman - he always greet locals/regulars with a big smile and nice gestures. We’ve loved this place from our fist visit in 2018 and continue to do so. Needless to say their Neapolitan pizzas and pastas are exquisite! It’s casual and family friendly too. Go, relax and enjoy company with beautifully cooked dishes by skilled Italian chefs.”

“A great find. The food was delicious and the staff friendly and helpful. Whilst I have eaten in Persian restaurants before this seemed to a cut above. We ate in and it was pretty quiet but then it was 2.30pm on a Monday in January. Even then the food was fresh, moist and delicious. We shared a starter of Aubergine and walnut with amazing bread (Kashnk Bademjan) for mains we had slow cooked lamb neck with excellent rice. (Baghali Polo) Tender and tasty together with a first for us, Dizi a traditional lamp chick pea and veg stew in an earthenware pot (Which we got to take home) that you crush then roll in bread with fresh herbs and pickles - eating the liquid as a soup. Divine. I can't say if it is authentic but I get the feeling it is. I can say it is definitely great food and generous portions. Highly recommended”

“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.”

“Actually the best coffee I've had in a while, but it's definitely the nicest coffee you can get in Surbiton and Kingston. Very small and cosy, friendly staff. 5 stars well deserved”

“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.”

“The owner is super friendly. Came in the evening and received 2 free wings Top 5 chicken places I have gone to.”

“Their waffles are great but they're quite large so a few people can share them. My sister loves their bubble tea. Don't get the cookie dough.”

“We had a lovely breakfast here. The service was first rate, with the staff friendly and accommodating. The food was of a good standard and well presented with fresh, tasty and good quality ingredients. The childrens menu was a winner with good choices and also very good value. A very pleasant experience for our family!”

“Just wanted to do a shout out to thank you for your excellent service and amazing products. The braai packs are such great value and your biltong and dröe wors are like a little kiss from home. Keep up the good work, you guys rock!”

“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!”

“Delicious beyond belief. My favourite Chinese restaurante in London. This is exactly what Chinese food tastes like in China. Most of the time I think Chinese restaurants in Europe generally adapt flavours too much to match our taste, maybe a wrong impression. Not in this case though. The people were friendly and really nice.”

“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!”

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

“The BEST coffee in Surbiton. I would even say it's one of the best places for coffee in London and I have tried a lot of coffee! It's consistently good too which is a good thing considering I have served by a few different people, milk not burnt, not too hot etc. The cinnamon buns are really good and I like how they have a good range of Swedish delicacies - not that I have tried many of them as I keep on going back for those damn cinnamon buns....”

“A kebab for any self respecting bloke is a fine way to end an evening out and Ace Kebabs didn't disappoint. Tender Lamb Shish, fresh salad on a plate with complementary pitta bread what more can one ask for. Spotless premises and a real bargain to boot.”
