Authentication service in Surbiton

“Used to come here occasionally as a child growing up in the 70s/80s. Moved back to Surbiton with my own family several years ago and was so happy to see they were still going strong. Have been coming here ever since. Dishes taste fantastic, quality is consistent, prices are very reasonable, preparation is fast and staff are friendly. Tried other Chinese takeaways in the area but none of them come close. A real jewel. Bravo, guys.”

“Really nice local Indian restaurant. Friendly staff, very welcoming. Prices are a must. Always go for the Garlic Naan and the Chutney Tray. Malayan chicken and Biryani.”

“I went to this place before my shift finished to order some food and told the boy serving i would be back in 10-15min.It was quiet and The boy was serving on his own at the front (young boy, named Janes, sorry for misspelling). He was giving fast and friendly service and apparently also doing deliveroo orders! He had my food ready by the time i came back and he kept it warm on the side for me. Portioning was great! Nice detail to write “Enjoy” on the lid :)”

“Just bought Chana (chick peas) chaat and it’s delicious as always. Seriously really yummy if you haven’t tried. Hopefully will be ordering samosa in bulk for a small gathering. Thank you to staff who are very honest and helpful.”

““I had the absolute pleasure of trying the Persian pizza at Village Pizza in Surbiton, and it was truly outstanding. This pizza took me straight back home with its nostalgic flavors and that special touch that only authentic Persian-style pizza can bring. The service was equally fantastic—especially the lady behind the counter, who I believe is the owner. She made the whole experience warm and welcoming. I can’t recommend Village Pizza enough if you’re looking for a delicious slice of something special. Five stars all the way!””

“Idk why everyone is hating, me and my boyfriend LOVE THIS PLACE! I can’t stress enough how good it is, how affordable, and how big the portions are! That’s why I put some pics of my takeaway tonight and how it ended up. I hope this review is proof enough of how good it is.”

“Booked a table last minute at The French Table and they manage to accommodate us for a colleagues birthday , from start to finish everything was merticulous. Great ambiance and the place is not overcrowded with many tables, they have 2 floors but the place is not too big. I asked for extras to be added on our table and in under 30 minutes they delivered. We had personalised menues with colleagues name on it. Everything i asked for, they delivered. Would definately visit again. I would highly recommend if you are looking for a Michelin type of a restaurant. Tasting menus, wine paring, good food, everything is just so done to perfection, the staff are so friendly.”

“Had a great experience at choppers today. Was a little embarrassed about the state of my hair since having a baby but felt totally comfortable and at ease after the time was taken to discuss my new look. Couldn’t be happier with my hair now. Lovely shape, not too much off the length but lots of layers. Unlike some hairdressers that tell you it’s dead and needs to be short I left with a lovely look and fully trusted their expert opinion. Will absolutely be retuning. Thank you xx”

“It was our first time here. My mum who complains about all types of places we visit for food said the food is "excellent". We loved the food and the portion sizes are huge!! Nicely decorated for Halloween, restaurant has a nice ambience. Staff are really friendly. Everything was wonderful. Thank you, we will visit again!”

“This restaurant is amazing! Such yummy food at reasonable prices. Loved it! Every dish was super tasty and the portion size was as also good. It had cozy and nice ambiance with great staff taking care of the customers promptly. We ordered quite a number of dishes and each one was wonderful and worth it!! Will definitely visit again!!”

“Excellent service by the hostess, nice coffee and pastisseries”

“OMG biltong, where have you been all my life??? Drop what you’re doing and visit the shop to try delicious and authentic produce. Staff is very knowledgeable and will recommend you good bits if you’re unsure what to get! I can’t wait to get back to try truffle biltong. Great for gifts chutneys groceries and bbq. Would highly recommend”

“One of my favourite places in Kingston/Surbiton. Freshly made dishes that taste amazing. Great customer service. A shot or two of limoncello after the dinner is a must”

“I wish I could give more stars for the service here. I booked the French tarte afternoon tea for my mum’s birthday in august, and the chef carefully curated alternatives to cater to my mum’s nut allergy. We were made to feel so comfortable, the service was the best and it felt as though our waiter could not do enough! We were also encouraged to take our time and enjoy every bite. The flavours were amazing and the homemade jam was so good! Will definitely be returning.”

“Popped in for lunch on the spur of the moment and thank goodness we did. We were greeted warmly and given the menu and chose, I had lamb souvlaki which was absolutely delicious, the chunks weren't massive like in other restaurants which I don’t like, they were cooked to perfection with strong Mediterranean flavours, my wife had a salad that had avocado and Halloumi with a trio of dips to go with again the flavours were perfect, the atmosphere was great and we will definitely be going again as it’s local for us. Thanks for a wonderful lunch”

“Disability accessible. Ground floor entrance. Toilets on the ground floor. Staff welcoming and excellent hosts, they were very attentive and we felt well cared for.. Clean and well organised. The food is fresh, delicious, and has a good portion. We had more than we could manage, and they provided takeaway trays so we could take it home. There are lots of options for vegetarians. They will also tailor your curry to your taste, i.e., add chillies, make it more spicy or hot for you. The best bit was the trays that were provided with the poppadoms. The variety of choices and flavours were really good. Best chutneys and presentation ever. The restaurant is on the main road with bus stops, which is good. They provide takeaways and plenty of seating for cosy small tables or large groups. We went early so and it was not full but it got busier as the evening went on. One thing I like is to listen to is Indian music, which adds to my experience of the culture and atmosphere. However, the music was cheesy pop like Taylor Swift, but it was not distracting. Thank you for the complimentary liquor and chocolates at the end of our meal.”

“Really good meal and great service. Had sesame prawn on toast for starter... one of the best I've had. Then beef salad and sizzling beef for mains. Followed by Mandarin souffle... all good!!!”

“An absolute gem of a family run restaurant. Been coming here for over 20 years. It has always been consistent over that time. Lovely menu, well cooked food excellent service. A very good set menu as well as a la carte.”

“A little gem. Went here last night very friendly nice lady serving us we decided to have the Korean hot pot as we had never tried before and sounded really nice. We had to move tables as all are not equipped with heat for the hot pot but it wasn’t an issue. The food came quick and tasted absolutely delicious. On top of that it was pretty good value for money. A nice little place with nice staff and amazing food what more could you ask for. Will definitely be going back.”

“Really good overall. Will come back for sure. Beef was nice and tender in the noodles, brisket beef could have been thicker but tasty never the less. Happy, great crab and sweetcorn soup.”

“I've tried many Chinese takeaways in the area, and without a doubt, Wan's is the best! The food is always piping hot, packed with flavor, and made with fresh ingredients. Every dish tastes carefully prepared – from the crispy spring rolls to the rich, perfectly balanced sweet and sour chicken. Their portions are generous, the prices are fair, and they never miss a detail with the order. The staff are friendly and welcoming, and the service is always quick, whether I'm collecting or getting delivery. I honestly wouldn't go anywhere else now — it's become my go-to for a treat after a long week. If you’re looking for a Chinese takeaway that never disappoints, you won’t find better than here.”

“Surprisingly excellent Bangladeshi restaurant in this neck of town. Each morsel was exquisitely cooked and prepared. Of particular note, the chicken tikka was divine. The restaurant has a fresh vibe and was very welcoming. The service was good, and helpful and the managers /owners were on hand to ensure things ran smoothly. Highly recommended if you're in this area.”

“This was my first ever proper Chinese meal due to being. Coeliac but I felt immediately at ease. When first sitting down we were asked if anyone had any allergies and I was given the gluten free menu. There was so much choice our group got everything gluten free so I could try a variety of dishes. When the sauces were brought out we were immediately told that they were gluten free which was a nice touch. My group told me that it tasted like normal Chinese which made me extra happy as this is a cuisine that had previously been inaccessible to me until visiting here. Will be visiting here again.”

“Ordered from New Woo about 10 times now in 3 years. Always super quick. Like 10-15 mins on collection. 5 mins when I ordered in-person the other day. Excellent food. Always consistent in quality and taste! Great customer service. This place is a credit to the area of Tolworth! Thank you! Keep up the great work!”

“Lovely decorating and very nice of services. Food tastes are so great and good for sharing friends, for family outing. Excellent! Thanks.”

“Delicious food! Nice to order from a China that doesn't use the same old wholesale cheap food. Some of the items, like the grilled dumplings had a unique taste and texture. And crispy beef that's actually crispy! We will be ordering again without doubt.”

“Really great food and was delivered quick aswell, I think I’ve found our new best local takeaway!!”

“Best curry I’ve had in a long time 10/10.”

“I recently ordered the Chili Lamb Shank from Red Rose in Surbiton, and it was absolutely fantastic! The portion was very generous, and the gravy was rich and flavourful. Highly recommend!"”
