The 30 Best Culinary technique in London

“We had a wonderful time at the restaurant, enjoying the excellent food and the lovely ambiance. Our wedding anniversary celebration was very happy, and we were pleasantly surprised by the fireworks on the tiramisu. The restaurant has a friendly staff, making it a truly delightful experience.”

“Ranya Restaurant is an absolute gem! From the moment you walk in, you’re welcomed with a warm, inviting atmosphere and incredibly friendly staff who make you feel right at home. The service is attentive, respectful, and genuinely caring without ever feeling rushed. The food is absolutely delicious, and my favorite dish was the Pacha Tashreeb. It was rich, flavorful, and perfectly prepared, with amazing depth of taste. The bread soaked up the broth beautifully, making every bite comforting and satisfying. You can really tell it’s made with care and authentic tradition. The restaurant is clean, comfortable, and ideal for families or casual dining. Portions are generous, prices are fair, and the quality is excellent. I highly recommend Ranya Restaurant, especially if you want to try an outstanding Pacha Tashreeb. I’ll definitely be coming back!”

“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.”

“Delicious food and everything we ordered was excellent. It had a lovely atmosphere with friendly staff. We throughly enjoyed our time there.”

“Great flavours, meat is amazing quality and cooked perfectly, you also get given complimentary breads and dips (including hummus) before your food comes that are again delicious. Salad nice and fresh. Also has a big drinks menu with great cocktails. Love this place.”

“Lovely restaurant. We celebrated our office Xmas party here this week and it was perfect. The food was delicious and very generous portions. Very friendly service too. Everyone loved it!”

“Excellent food! We recently found out about Bang Bang and we’re able to try T.H.E Formosa and we’re delighted at how good it was. We had the popcorn chicken, bao, and pak choi. The chicken was perfect - it was crispy and succulent and so tasty. The bao was just as delicious as was the steamed pak choi. The pak choi in particular was fantastic. It had a lovely smoky flavour and came with a lovely dressing. There’s lots to choose from at Bang Bang but T.H.E Formosa is definitely my favourite!”

“We tried this place before and we absolutely loved the food, so on our anniversary we booked again with them. Can't praise them enough. They really made an effort to make our anniversary feels special. A small touch goes a long way. They lay out the table romantically. We loved the theme, and we have agreed to go back again for our next anniversary. But in between time I am we'll go back a few more times. The food was amazing, and the Sangria is so refreshing and addictive. Can't fault anything in that place. Highly recommend. Can't wait to go back again soon.”

“This is place is incredible and we had such a good time. I had the lamb tagine with aubergine and my partner had the vegetarian tagine with goats cheese (which she said was delicious). My lamb was falling off the bone and the whole meal was superb. It’s also a BYOB place with no corkage costs. Would absolutely recommend this - service was great and decent price for amazing quality food - still thinking about it now!”

“The best there is! From the staff to the food, true Cyprus in a Uk Resteraunt. Anyone who says otherwise is simply wrong! Free fresh fruit without even asking!”

“Loved it!!!! The food was delicious, with the right amount of spice. The service was great, staff were very polite and very friendly. I have been to so many Nepalese restaurant, must say this is the only Nepalese restaurant that has provided great food with great service. Will be going back again.”

“Very nice restaurant with incredibly tasty food. Highly recommend the Prawn and Avocado Cocktail. Waiters were very kind and even provided us with a complementary birthday cake! The only disappointment was the size of the beef serving (3 thin slices) but otherwise, top notch.”

“Great service, friendly atmosphere and was overall just amazing. Was mums birthday they even sang happy birthday and gave us a cake without us asking. Lovely touch. Would definitely recommend”

“Absolutely delicious. Hand pulled noodles are amazing and the service is top notch. The only issue was that they did not have some of the drinks listed on the menu, but that still doesn't affect my review. The lamb dumplings were the best I've ever tried. I'd recommend booking in advance as it gets quite busy for dinner time.”

“Lovely food, highly recommended haven’t had it in ages because I have not been in the area. Only thing I’m not happy with are the confusing opening hours, I would kindly recommend fixing that (speaking out of business experience). Would be much better if you stick to Thursday-Saturday 17:00 (or 18:00) - 23:00 (or 00:00) and Sunday as it is.”

“Came in for lunch during our London vacation and had a lovely meal at Kitchen W8. The meal was relaxed, but with refined food and service. Very interesting but approachable menu and expansive wine offerings. An elevated neighborhood resturant.”

“Great atmosphere! Does not pretend to be what it is not! Food and service - always excellent! Prices are also adequate. Overall, would recommend to anyone who likes Polish cuisine!”

“Don Giovanni is the closest Italian food experience we’ve had since we’ve been to Italy. This little gem deserves so much hype and recognition. Their staff are also really lovely. Food were 10/10 with reasonable price and ambience is intimate and relax. Highly recommended and will definitely go back for more!”

“This place was absolutely lovely. We were visiting family and this place was close enough to visit as I wanted some authentic food from a tagine. It was about two minute walk from the bus station. Upon arrival we noticed how bright and lively the decor was. We walked in and had the option to sit where we wanted, so we took a seat in the back to avoid feeling any cold air from outside as customers left. We ended up sitting next to the restrooms, luckily they were fairly clean although there was no napkins in the women’s room. The waiter gave us time and asked us what we’d like to drink, we decided on tea, I asked for unsweetened and regretted it, but it was still nice, we added sugar and fixed it right up. After a while he came back and asked what we would like to order. We started with an appetizer, the Marrakech traditional mezzo. It was beautiful! Olives, hummus, yogurt mint dip, a fajita tasting veggie dip, another one I don’t remember but it was fantastic, sausages(veggie, and a lamb), falafel, and loads of warm pita. We dug in and probably could have had that for a meal alone. But we decided to pig out and enjoyed ourselves. After a while the waiter came back and asked what we wanted to order. I ordered the chicken and olive tagine with bread and my other half ordered a fish tagine with couscous. They arrive quickly and pipping hot! It was beautiful, I’d never had a tagine before and the presentation was cool. He only lifted the lids for us but it was fun! I don’t know what sauce was on that chicken but it was fantastic! I could eat a bowl of the sauce and olives with the bread anytime. The chicken was great also, very tender, fell right off the bone! The fish fish was very pretty but it wasn’t as good as the chicken, well to me at least. Needless to say I finished it with a smile. We were probably at the restaurant for a hour and a half. They stayed busy but not overly busy, some people ordered take away. They offered dessert too but we were stuffed so we got the check and went onto our next adventure. The price was fair also. Pretty much what we’d pay at home for a meal like that. We’ll be back on our next trip to the UK. It’s locked into my google maps!”

“Just had lunch and wow — the food was so good! The mix grill was perfectly cooked, super juicy, and full of flavor. You could tell it was fresh off the grill with that perfect smoky taste. The Charsi Chicken Karahi was another standout — spicy, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. The chicken was melt-in-your-mouth tender, and the sauce was so delicious that we couldn’t resist dipping the naan into every last bit. The service was warm and welcoming. I’ll definitely be coming back— highly recommended!”

“Never disappointed by the food when we come here. Family run and beautifully simple. The seafood options are always my favourite. It’s like stepping back in time decor wise, but the food is fabulous.”

“If not the best home made Sunday roast we ve tasted in while, Superfast delivery by an excellent mannered driver. Service was impeccable will definitely see you next Sunday.”

“Great bottomless brunch with my work colleagues. The singer was so much fun and got everyone up on the dance floor. It was like a night out in the middle of the day. Will definitely be back!”

“Food is outstanding, it’s nice to see it’s family run including children, the lady staff is very very helpful, the chef is amazing, highly recommended , great place”

“The restaurant turned out to be a wonderful experience. The ambience was warm and inviting, the staff was attentive, and the food was genuinely impressive. Every dish was flavorful, the portions were satisfying, and the overall quality made it worth the price. Highly recommended for a relaxed, enjoyable meal.”

“We just had food here in Chennai biriyani. The food and taste was awesome, the quantity is perfect. Ordered Chicken Biriyani, chicken pakoda, Chicken fried rice and Parota veg curry. All items taste was very nice, chicken biryani with less masala and taste is good, the prices in chicken fried rice are well roasted and tasty, parota is very fluffy and soft. Prices are also reasonable. I highly recommend this place. The people at the counter were very respectful and friendly approach.”

“Was in London for a concert with family went here for food and it was a very good experience, staff were polite and freindly. Highly recommend owner was chatty and is proud and loves the restraunt. So would be happy to go again.”

“Never disappoints! The food is incredibly tasty and great value, they are more than happy to cater to any of your needs and tweak dishes for you. The waiter Amin is incredibly welcoming and friendly, we love him! Would recommend the sizzling dishes, yum! Meat is good quality which I often find lacks in other Indian restaurants. Best all round Indian in Crouch End by a mile (maybe even north London, although can’t claim to have tried them all!)”

“Today first time we tried Bombay Bicycle Chef @ Balham, food was amazing and atmosphere was excellent too. Definitely recommend for a great evening.”

“You won’t regret going out for dinner here! So glad we didn’t order in as usual. Met the lovely people who own this place (2nd generation family owned since 1972), amazing food and such generous service and such good value for money. Will definitely be visiting again next time we are through in Waltham Abbey ”
