The 30 Best Authentic flavours in London

“This unassuming restaurant by the Twickenham green offers a wide variety of classic Indian dishes. Very friendly and accommodating staff. Good for dine in or take away. Limited vegetarian options.”

“I recently visited Mr Singh's Pizza and was pleasantly surprised! The pizza had a light and crispy base, and the soya topping was exceptionally well-seasoned—definitely not chewy like you find at most places. The fries were an absolute standout—10/10! Perfectly cooked with a light, crispy shell and a fluffy interior. Highly recommend giving them a try. The milkshake was good, though fairly standard in both flavour and presentation. As for the sauces, they weren't labeled, but they did offer tomato ketchup, BBQ, and their own recipe chilli sauce, which had a nice tangy kick. I tried Mr Singh's spicy burger, and while the condiment fillings (just cheese and lettuce) left something to be desired, the actual soya patty was amazing! It was well-seasoned with a bit of a kick, but I would have loved to see extras like onions, pickles, or jalapeños to elevate it further. The prices were very reasonable, and portions were generous, making it great value for money. Decor was a little plain, with no real furnishings to make it stand out and standard automated playlist for music but the food makes up for this. Bonus points for their 100% vegetarian menu with vegan options—perfect for all the meat-free food lovers out there. If you're looking for great vegetarian comfort food, Mr Singh's is definitely worth a visit!”

“Amazing food as always! I’d highly recommend Taste of Punjab great food every single time and never fails to put a smile on mine and my family’s face. Brilliant atmosphere always greeted with a happy face and Mr. Head Chef he will definitely take care of you and make sure everything is to your taste.”

“Very nice Thai food in a slightly quieter street in Kingston. We were the first people in on a Saturday evening, so the service was very prompt and friendly. We ordered Pad Thai, Grilled Chicken and plain Jasmine Rice — along with a Tiger Lager and some Jasmine Tea. Pad Thai was very nice, with not much spice, and they did give you the option to add heat with chilli flakes which were on the side of the plate. The grilled chicken had lovely flavour with nice crispy bits of skin, but the salad was fairly spicy. Definitely recommend if you're into Thai or other Asian cuisines.”

“Panas is a fantastic destination for anyone seeking to experience authentic Nepalese cuisine in a warm and inviting atmosphere. The combination of delicious food, excellent service, and a comfortable environment creates a dining experience that is truly hard to beat. Highly recommended!”

“Outstanding traditional dishes Charming decor and friendly staff This place is to die for”

“So this is the first time I have ordered a takeaway from this restaurant. I must admit I was most impressed! I am rather fussy ( as my parents were from Delhi) being brought up and cooking lamb curry from scratch this was a wonderful haven ! The closest in borehamwood I have tasted to curry at home. Most recommend please give it a try !”

“I have never been in but have always ordered takeaway. The food is brilliant, really recommend their curries, the gaeng panang is my favourite. their starter selection is great, the meat is always succulent, and as someone who enjoys a good king prawn... they don't disappoint!”

“What does it mean when a restaurant is absolutely full on a Thursday evening? Not even a spare chair. There were no large group bookings, just tables of 2 and four people. Delicious Israeli style food with a twist. An Unusual and creative menu. Excellent service. Takeaway and Home catering are also provided. I was shocked to discover that my friends had never been there previously. Advisable to book. Highly recommended.”

“i visited this amazing place in Nov 2015, and i cant be happier to see this place still in business specially given the pandemic, and many mom and pop shops loosing their business. I've had an amazing experience and one of the best pizzas ever, very good portions, amazing desserts and good wine, you cant ask for more, I am looking forward to my next visit when I'm in London again, I hope the amazing old gentleman who make sure on my way out offer me a Limoncello shot to enjoy together is okay and well. cheers and hope to visit soon :)”

“Delicious food. Great service. Staff were very professional and informative. The design and decor was also lovely. We celebrated an early birthday with friends there. Yes! We would go back. I forgot to take pictures from most of the dishes.”

“Delicious Lebanese cuisine. Salute to the chef. Bread came hot out of the oven to our table. Huge portions of food. Great service. One of the best restaurants that I have ever eat in while in London. Pricey but worth it.”

“Best Chinese in Croydon. The food is always so nice, really good flavours, always hot and fresh and such good value for money. Portions are always ample. The staff are always so friendly.”

“Had a wonderful dining experience at TOZI. The food is fresh, flavorful, and truly authentic Italian. The cozy atmosphere adds to the charm. While portions are a bit small for the price, the quality and taste are top-notch. Definitely worth a visit if you're near Victoria!"”

“Really enjoyed the food here the chops the ribs basically the meat. Tender and juicy... yum. Ordered the family option £71 plus drinks and 1 dessert.”

“This take away lived up to its name, the food fresh, tasty, great portions with welcoming and good customer service. I will be back next time I'm back in London. Highly recommended!!!!”

“Excellent restaurant. Had lamb chops with saag bahji, started with prawn puri, all very good. Chops massive, but could've done with a bit more seasoning, in saying that, they were lovely. Very busy on a Saturday evening, with repeat customer's and take away orders Highly recommended. Paul”

“The restaurant is about a 2 minute walk from Forest Gate station. My wife and I visited mid afternoon. We enjoyed our lamb and mutton dishes and found them tastey.The service was quick and efficient. The owner came to the table after the meal and asked if we enjoyed the food. He was very pleasant and was interested in what we had to say about our experience there. We had a pleasant visit.”

“Eltham GDK is my local branch. I treat myself to a GDK when there are offers on the OG Kebab. They always deliver consistently, the public area is always clean and well kept, the chefs always do a great job and make the order correct (if you ask for extra onioms for example or no tomatoes) and the front desk service is so friendly and organic, there is nomnally a male on the front desk (not sure of his name) and he is always friendly and helpful. In recent months there is a female named Tuba on the front desk who is as well always friendly and helpful. It makes a huge difference in the experience. Not that there has ever been an issue with an order, but if there was, the teams friendliness and eagerness to ensure you have had a good experience would make me feel super comfortable to address any concerns. In my experience this is so rare for a franchise. To Tuba and the rest if the team, thanks for your collective efforts to deliver a brilliant experience every time. You all work hard and I hope headoffice recognize what an incredible team they have.”

“Had such an amazing night tonight. When the guys said were make it a good night they did exactly that. Great food highly recommended this place xx”

“Such a good place! We enjoyed a lot, we went late to dinner and still they gave service to us. We are from Spain and really enjoyed the food. Congrats not many restaurants gets the Spanish taste!!”

“Best fish and chips in the whole of Dartford ! Very big portion of cod and is good value”

“Always a favorite the food is perfect and the service is second to none Always a great atmosphere! Call me old fashioned but I love my vindsloo here always lovely”

“We had an excellent experience at spice village- thank you Pallab! I took my family there for dinner and it exceeded our expectations. It has a variety of food for everyone to enjoy including my 4 year old. The service was brilliant- there was no wait times for the food and it came out tasty, fresh, fantastic flavours and piping hot every time. Pallab was exceptional ensuring we had everything needed. Thank you so much for our great experience in Southall and we look forward to dining here again.”

“The food is 1st class so tasty my family and I wished we found this place sooner i had lamb balti and the meat was soft and the sauce was full of flavour every dish was fantastic and at a very reasonable price looking forward to our next one”

“This is my all time favourite Indian restaurant. The food is always delicious, the staff are lovely and there's a cute atmosphere inside. Fully recommend the mango lassi and the chicken tikka dakeshwari. The staff give great recommendations if you ask!”

“A family and friends favourite. Loved going here for years, especially after watching Dulwich Hamlet play up the road. Great food, excellent service and the nicest guys. Can’t recommend going here enough.”

“One of the best biryani I have had in London! Visited with family and we really enjoyed the mini sizzler and lamb biryani. Food was delicious and fresh. Staff was kind enough to give us some plain rice since the biryani was a bit too spicy for my kids. Thank you and we hope to visit again soon.”

“Spontaneously decided to drop in for “dinner for one”, since my dinner date had to stay home. The food was amazing and very authentic and probably the best Thai food I’ve had in a restaurant outside of Thailand. It’s made with love and there is no holding back with flavor and portion sizes. It makes the experience even better because they are truly there to serve good food and fill you up! I ordered the stuffed chicken wings and an order of the glazed ribs as a starter and for main I ordered spicy noodles with prawn. I was also served a basket with shrimp crackers and some chili oil and that was a nice touch. The service was very very good and I will definitely be returning next time I visit St.Albans! I brought some Tom Ga Kai back home for the sick husband and he really enjoyed it piping hot as it came. Thank you and please don’t change much till next time!”

“Very nice little Thai restaurant run by 3 adorable ladies. Watch out when they bring out the sizzling beef and its smoke haha but beside that the dishes are tasty, the service attentive and the room not too loud. The Menu A Standard is perfect selection. The soup and the curry were delicious. The Ice cream is not very exciting though. Conveniently located less than 10 min walk from Richmond station.”
