Authentic eating in Watford

“The food here is absolutely amazing and authentic to the true flavors of Northern India ❤️. Cannot go wrong with the staples: hot masala chai, papadums, garlic naan, bombay mix, butter chicken and lamb Biriyani. Food took a little long to arrive to table, but it was well worth the wait! Our server is named Freya and was very friendly! Highly recommend if in the Watford area.”

“Amazing food and atmosphere, happy people and all what you need . I don’t want to speak about the service I want to speak about the food. I tried already 3 times , the lamb chops amazing , the polo Milanese amazing but I have a request: bring back the fillet steak . I don’t like the ribeye steak so please do that but the rest is all good . Guys if you didn’t try yet I promise you is the best place to eat in Watford . If you don’t like contact me and I promise you I will pay for yours bill but I am sure you gonna love it . Enjoy !!!!!!”

“Amazing street food menu - £20 for 5 small plates of street food. Menu changes and is inspired by places in India. Food is incredible. The rum old fashioned was delicious! Will be coming back :) staff are also friendly and welcoming.”

“I had the pleasure of visiting Burritos Watford recently. The mexican tottilla wrap were absolutely mouthwatering—the Chicken was juicy and packed with flavour, and the combination of toppings was perfect. It's definitely one of the best burritos I’ve had in a while! I also tried the mexican rice, which are something truly special. The way they’ve put it all together is unique and unlike anything I've had before. It's a must-try for anyone looking for something different and tasty! A big shoutout to udaya for her amazing customer service. She made the experience even more enjoyable with her friendly and helpful attitude. It’s not every day you come across someone so dedicated to making sure you have the best dining experience. Highly recommend this place for great food and excellent service! Food: 5/5 | Service: 5/5 | Atmosphere: 5/5”

“Service was the best I’ve had. Very quick, always keeping an eye on our drinks throughout the brunch. Can’t fault them at all, food was tasty too, would highly recommend. The only thing they’re missing is entertainment.”

“Toni's a true authentic greek experience Ordered from here a couple of times via deliveroo and just eat. Always get the boxed portions and the club sandwich, and the food is incredible. Taste amazing and the portion size is huge. Exceptional quality and I highly recommend ordering/ visiting if possible. 5 stars out of 5 :)”

“I always have a relaxing time at Villiers. This is a cozy and laidback café, with a lot of different treats on offer that cater to a variety of diets. There are vegan, vegetarian, and gluten free options. I was very appreciative that I could choose between a few flourless snacks. I’ve had the flapjack, the cheesecake, and the salted caramel brownie, all of which I enjoyed. Shoutout to the barista Anna, who always ensures that the gluten free goodies I get are handled safely so I can enjoy them without getting a reaction! The coffee is very good, and I can't complain when there's nice latte art. I don’t love that the latte is served in a glass instead of a mug, but that's more of a preference than a comment on the quality. It tastes great regardless! In short: very nice and recommend!”

“Great experience at German Doner Kebab. Food was spot on, but what really stood out was the service. Gul served me and handled the order properly — polite, attentive, and made sure everything was done right. You can tell when someone actually cares instead of just going through the motions. Credit where it’s due.”

“Absolutely Outstanding! Soor Lebanese Restaurant exceeded all expectations — from the warm hospitality to the incredible flavours. Every dish was fresh, beautifully presented, and bursting with authentic Lebanese taste. The hummus was creamy perfection, the grilled meats were tender and juicy, and the freshly baked bread tied it all together perfectly. The staff were friendly, attentive, and made the whole experience feel personal and welcoming. The ambience was elegant yet relaxed, perfect for both casual dinners and special occasions. Highly recommend to anyone looking for genuine Lebanese cuisine done right — can’t wait to come back!”

“Excellent customer service. Been coming to this store for almost five years and they never disappoint when it comes to customer service. The ladies at the tills are always polite and kind. The grocery choices here are excellent and they have some really nice exotic fruits. What I will say for improvement is that sometimes the queue can get really long so it would be great if there were two people at the tills and also the queue is in an awkward place as it take over one of the grocery aisles. Besides that I’d say this is a great place to shop.”

“We were recommended to them by friends. Really pleasantly surprised. Friendly lady took our order and it was correct. Food was still hot when got it home twenty mins later. We will probably get delivery next time. The food was delicious and this is why...in our opinion...it was not sitting in lots of sauces (each dish) it was not soggy. It was not full of monosodium glutamate. So, food tasted good and we were thirsty all night! Noodles, beansprouts and meat was crispier and not covered in sauces. Food was good portion sizes and under £20 for four dishes. Finally, premises looked clean and they are rated well for cleanliness.”

“Excellent service and best noodles with all fresh ingredients made to custom order. Very good sitting place aswell.”

“Authentic Flavors and Great Value, But Service Needs Polish I recently dined at a local Pakistani restaurant in Watford and walked away thoroughly impressed by the quality and authenticity of the food. If you're searching for genuine subcontinental cuisine, this place truly delivers. The cooking here is genuinely delicious, carrying a depth of flavor that speaks to true authenticity. A major highlight of the meal was the naan bread; it arrived at the table piping hot and incredibly fresh—clearly baked moments before. Beyond the flavor, the value is exceptional. The portions are generous, meaning you get a satisfying, hearty meal without breaking the bank. Everything on the menu felt reasonably priced given the quality and size of what we received, making it a fantastic option for a weeknight dinner or a larger family gathering. The only small drawback was the service experience. While every member of the team we interacted with was polite and friendly, the staff generally need to be a bit more attentive. We often found ourselves waiting or having to flag someone down for things like drinks refills or clearing plates. Improving this small aspect of table service would elevate the dining experience significantly. Verdict: Highly recommended for food lovers and those who appreciate great value. The delicious, authentic meals and fresh naan make it a must-try; just be prepared to signal for service when you need it!”

“good shop, a bit small and cramped but good shop otherwise”

“I was very happy with my rainbow sushi order for takeaway. Yummy, well packaged, reasonably priced and was ready in 5 mins. Kind and professional service too”

“Warm and welcoming vegetarian café in a serene setting Radharani’s Café offers a peaceful, simple dining experience with wholesome vegetarian meals and treats. The setting is calm—a perfect spot to relax after exploring the gardens or temple grounds. Staff are genuine, helpful, and serve food with care. Ideal for a light lunch or refreshing chai in between visits.”

“I've only ever had take away. They have been closed for renovations. Prior to this they were not a sit down place. Food is always fantastic. Best Chinese take away. Worth the price.”

“Horrified to see poor reviews, as the food is very good quality for the price and they ALWAYS deliver in super rapid time, often ahead of the estimate. Perfect accuracy too, as they read your order back to you. The veggie in a tizz is being culturally unreasonable.”

“We just had another delicious meal delivered, and feel I should share the love. Its fabulous food,service, and at a very reasonable price. What more could you ask for.”

“Very agreeable Indian. The food was really good and the staff polite”

“Ordered crispy shredded beef, squid, vegetable noodles and crispy tofu. All fine - Fair price and big portions. Had to write a review though for the crispy shredded beef, it’s the best I had in a long long time. In many Chinese restaurant, you barely get any meat on those, just thin deep fried batter. Here however, it’s chunky and well prepared (took the picture until I already had half of it unfortunately :P ).”

“The food is FRESH, incredibly tasty, the menu is large as is the portions. Better than any restaurant in Bushey”

“Very clean store with a nice variety of products”

“Neat little shop! The boy working there was so lovely and spoke very kindly. The chicken shish pizza we ordered was absolutely fresh, crispy, and delicious. I’ll definitely be visiting again!”
