The 30 Best Dinner for two in London

“100% the best pizza in London and my fave thing about living in Brockley. Delicious pizza (the macgyver is INCRED), friendly staff, stunning location and the rosemary and lemon dip just tops it all off. Get yourself there asap!!!”

“Went there for my wife's birthday dinner and we were so happy with tasty food and excellent service. Drinks from the bar took a while to prepare so eventually we ordered different drinks but other than that everything went well. Happy wife and kids.”

“Truly delicious and exciting food - highly recommend the pani puri and aloo firecracker. We went on a weekday so it was very quiet and a nice ambience. The manager was rude and abrasive to his staff in front of us which was disappointing, but hopefully a one-off.”

“we were served at a very high level Sorina is a professional in serving ..... water on time whatever we wanted we were served immediately everything was prepared with great love we felt extraordinary ..... the food is fresh and tasty I recommend it with confidence”

“Great neighbourhood cafe. Cozy and friendly hence difficult to tear yourself away! Cornerstone Community Coffee shop is a friendly space where people can just find someone to talk to and get excellent coffee and light meals at affordable prices, or free in some circumstances. It's run by volunteers from charity - East 13 Christian Trust.”

“Khan G Kababish is hands down one of the best places for Lahori food in town! Their Lahori Nashta is absolutely amazing — from the crispy halwa puri to the rich, flavorful nihari and chana, everything tastes just like home. The parathas are perfectly cooked, the lassi is refreshing, and the overall vibe makes you feel like you’re sitting in a classic Lahore dhaba. The staff is friendly, the service is quick, and the portions are generous. Every dish is full of authentic spices and aroma — you can tell it’s made with passion and care. If you’re craving real Pakistani food, especially traditional Lahori breakfast, Khan G Kababish is the place to go. Highly recommended!”

“Excellent food and service. There are so many curry restaurants on Brick Lane - how do you choose? Well, luckily we chose this one. It’s fantastic. Nice and cool in the heatwave too. Great food, good value and excellent service especially Niaz. Really enjoyable.”

“What an incredible find! If you're looking for genuine Italian food made with passion, this is the place. The homemade lasagna, straight from a family recipe, was absolute perfection—rich, flavourful, and clearly made with love. The wine list was superb, and our server's recommendation was the perfect pairing. We finished with a fantastic dessert that was the ideal end to the meal. The best part was seeing the owner in the kitchen, pouring his heart into the food. That passion is the secret ingredient. We're already planning our next visit!”

“Absolutely fantastic experience at 1905. Our waiter was incredibly knowledgeable and took the time to explain the Greek origins and stories behind several dishes, which really added to the overall dining experience. The food was absolutely delicious. You can tell a lot of care goes into everything they do here. Highly recommend this place if you're looking for amazing food and warm, attentive service.”

“Absolutely delicious meal! Every dish was bursting with flavor, the portions were generous, and the drinks were the perfect complement. The service was also excellent, making for a truly enjoyable dining experience. 10/10!”

“Once a year with my bosses we go to a nice restaurant, this year it was my turn to choose one so I choose Dinner by Heston Blumenthal because Im actually a big fan of his food and reviews are great. I must say that the experience we had were truly unique, it was beyond what I personally expected and even my bosses thought I made the right and I know I did! The service was really unique, I never experienced something like this before, staff are so knowledgeable about the food provenance and the history behind it! By the way you will be given the choice between 3 table cards: One detailing the dish's original 16th-19th century origin, the other one explaining the dish's journey from historical recipe to modern masterpiece and the other one is when you just want the food to do its talking with no story telling (please don’t choose this one!!) The whole experience was unique, I have been to many restaurants but this one is the one that I’ll definitely come back to!”

“Loved the food, was just as we expected it to be. For me the Thai curry was so flavourful and aromatic. Prawns were cooked perfectly too and the service was great, so welcoming and attentive. Will definitely be returning to try other items on the menu. Thank you Thai spice!”

“i love this little place so much it is such a treasure. Lovely warm staff and a really delicious chicken and rice. Such a comforting local restaurant I really love it here”

“Stopped by for brunch and was more than impressed! The food was incredible every ingredient was perfectly plated and full of flavor. The coffee and smoothies were so good (I even grabbed one to go.) A special thanks to Subhra, who greeted us with a warm smile from start to finish and gave us the best drink recommendations. Thank you, Subhra we will definitely be back.”

“I went here with my sister and my 10 year old nephew and we had a lovely meal. I had the pork belly, my sister had an avocado pesto pasta dish and my nephew had a pizza. All were very tasty and the portions were good. The staff were friendly, looked after us well and I would definitely go again.”

“We attended a wedding on Saturday the 26th of July. The food was amazing. We had such a wonderful time. Beautiful couple, beautiful venue.”

“I love Babel cafe the coffee and food are delicious! The staff are friendly. A lovely heart warming independent business on Stokey High St, recommend!”

“Great little spot for a few drinks and a tasty burger, love the spin the wheel. Anya your the best!”

“What a lovely plaice, the grilled fish is great, my husband had large cod and it was a whale, batter looked spot on, chips were beautiful and fried to perfection. Best fish n chips I have had in years... Staff are very friendly, very clean place to eat... Definitely worth another visit as it is open 7 days a week, 1st Sundays of every month is gluten free menu day...”

“We have walked past here a few times and thought this place looks good. Tonight, we finally ate here. Come here hungry. I read the reviews, and everyone said, get the set menu. GET THE SET MENU! You can't go wrong with this. It has a bit of everything, and you will leave here very full. The house red wine is also very good, fruity and full-bodied. The staff are very friendly and attentive. They even said you would not need to order extra dishes with the set menu, and I am glad I did not.”

“Dear Geoffrey Thank you for the delicious food and also the extra veg stew. It is all delicious. Lovely talking to you about Grenada lol. Thanks again. Best regards Judy”

“I first found Spaghetti House after playing football across the street in Tufnell Park a few years ago, by accident really. What I found with my Dad was an absolute gem of a restaurant. They have a good variety of options food-wise. I usually go for the Pizza, but the Pasta, Calzone and Meat dishes are all good options too. Prices for these meals usually vary between £8-15, so fantastic value. The beers and wine are reasonably priced too. Despite being part of a chain, I have to say that that is not the vibe you get at all in this restaurant. It is homely, owned (at least in part I believe?) by the staff and a hugely relaxing setting to eat in. The food is great, the prices are very good, but the best part of Spaghetti House is without question the service. You are always greeted with a smile, a handshake, and if you're lucky perhaps even a free shot at the end. The restaurant is just opposite the Tufnell Park Dome, which does quite a few gigs around the year. If you're in the area, I would highly recommend popping into the Spaghetti House for a fantastic meal!”

“This truly is a lovely restaurant. The waiters are very caring and attentive. I need gluten free because I am celiac and they work with the chef to let you know what you can eat. The food tastes amazing. I have eaten here 2 nights in a row cos it was so good. My husband is carnivore so we struggle to find a good place lace. This is awesome.”

“I ordered a takeaway, which was personally delivered by the manager Who informed me a couple of Items were given for my service. The Food was fresh, hot and full of flavours. On the occasion when I’ve popped in, the staff will always been friendly. I believe it’s the best Indian restaurant in Wantsted.”

“Great tasty breakfast with coffee while waiting for wife to get her hair done next door. Great value £8 too.”

“It was my graduation dinner 21.07.23. Yippee I totally enjoyed every bit of it. My guests had a lot to say about the beautiful evening as well. The ambiance - was to die for Music - very soothing and chill Food - right amount of deliciousness Staff - warm and welcoming with very cool vibe. My experience was all shades of amazing. I was received with love and treated very special. My visit was a memorable one and I will do it over and over again. Guys! What are you waiting for? Get booking……”

“Some of the dishes are exceptional and very close to the original in Thailand (taking into account Ingredients might be different). The starter snacks are super. Larb Gai tort (minty chicken balls), pik Gai tort (deep fried split wings marinated in fish sauce) and DIY noodles were amazing!!! The Khao Soy (northern style curried noodles) was delicious!!!! The Krapow was okay (yet to find a good one in London) but still tasty. The service is excellent. Worth a visit!!!”

“Local bossman is lovely always hooks you up with the best pizza, amazing price for quality and quantity on takeout”

“Had a lovely dinner here last Monday. The look of menu itself already transported me back to Malaysia! **homesick** I was so chuffed with all my orders, nothing to pick on! Semua sedap. Most of all the prices, you can never get Malaysian food anywhere else in the UK with these prices. Special thanks to Abu for the brilliant hospitality. We’ll be back! Thank you and keep up the good work.”

“Really enjoyed the food I ate there. Ordered a beautiful piece of fish and a variety of salad...I would have taken a picture but was too busy devouring it. Will definitely be back. And both times I have been the staff were great, even helped me get my phone back, which I had lost, but thanks to them I got it back.”
