Exceptional dining in Richmond

“Exceptional quality and service! From the moment I walked into Richmond Kitchens, the whole experience was a pleasure. The end result is a beautiful kitchen that’s genuinely beyond what I expected. They use Leicht kitchens, which are absolutely stunning — top quality and fully bespoke to your space. There’s also a huge range of worktops and appliances to choose from, so it really feels tailored to you. Matt’s design was brilliant. He made the most of the space and adapted the plan seamlessly to fit with the building work, including new windows and doors. The installation was on time, done to perfection and any small follow-up bits were sorted quickly and efficiently. I spoke to a few other local suppliers before deciding but it was the quality and level of service that drew me to Richmond Kitchens and they completely delivered.”

“I had the most amazing experience at Rock and Rose in Richmond. The food was great - my friend and I ordered the crispy tempura shrimp, the chicken milanese, the lamb leg steak and sticky toffee pudding for dessert - can't fault anything, tasted amazing! The drinks were delicious too, the bartenders put on a whole show for us and it added to the experience. The staff were all so lovely and hospitable, I loved the decor and ambience inside and it was super packed which goes to show how popular it is. Thank you so much for having us, this place is a hidden gem for sure! Can't wait to return ✨️”

“Atmosphere-superb. Food-superb. Customer service-superb. Deliberating where to have lunch, looking at the menu here when the waiter approached us. The warm welcome lured us in and we were not disappointed. Recommendations for drinks, a very well looked after 9 year old and plates finished. Not residents of London but frequent visitors. This place will be on our list to visit again. Check out their offers if you need a little push!”

“I had an absolutely fantastic experience at Zizzi Richmond today, thanks to Roland and the team! From the moment I walked in, I felt welcomed and well taken care of. Roland was incredibly friendly, attentive, and made sure every detail of my dining experience was perfect. I also have to mention the pizza—honestly, it was amazing! Perfectly cooked, with the right amount of toppings, and full of flavor. It was one of the best pizzas I've had in a while! Highly recommend this location if you're in the area. Thanks again, Roland, for making my visit so enjoyable. I’ll definitely be back!”

“If you're seeking a delightful and welcoming spot along the Thames in Richmond, you simply must visit this authentic German Beer Garden! Just a short stroll from Richmond Bridge, it boasts incredible, panoramic views towards Richmond Hill. Beyond the scenery, we loved the true family-style experience, complete with shared tables shaded by large umbrellas which are brilliant for protection from the elements. It's clearly a place that embraces everyone, as it's wonderfully pet-friendly. The combination of superb food and a genuine selection of Munich beers made for an unforgettable afternoon. We can't wait to go back!”

“Absolutely authentic Thai food, felt just like in Thailand. The service was super good too, extremely friendly and the prices are reasonable. A place surely worth recommending, we will come back!”

“Beautiful hotel in a great location, but this message is to thank GIRISH for going over and above with satisfying my special request for a fire to be laid downstairs. Even though Oct.8 was a little early for that, he got some assistance and made it happen! Two Texas ladies were very grateful for his kindness at the very beginning of our 3 week road trip around Ireland. We're home now and still singing this hotel staff’s praises! Well done!”

“Nice ambience and deco. Wonderful service, prompt and courteous. Food was amazing and coffee was smashing!”

“I have been visiting this Kokoro for months and I have NEVER been disappointed with the quality of the food and the service. The food is fresh made on the day and they often make the sushi for my daughter and I when they don’t have ready. The employees are kind and friendly. I highly recommend!”

“Our go-to Thai spot—really great food, full of flavor and always fresh. It’s a local gem, but be sure to make a reservation, as it can get quite busy! Definitely worth the visit.”

“Best food in West London. Good quality food, great atmosphere, and the best service I've experienced in a good while. Absolutely wonderful! The welcome and service was 1st class, the venue was lovely. Lamb Biryani, Butter chicken was just out of this world. so good! And further, everything is priced very reasonably, a rarity for this neighborhood in West London. Honestly the whole experience was fantastic. From start to finish,From food to drinks. Be sure to book a reservation. Highly recommended, You won’t be disappointed! We will definitely be back, Thank you Moreish Bites for a great dining experience.”

“Another excellent dining experience. The atmosphere is always warm and inviting. The service attentive and joyful. The food remains of excellent quality. You will feel looked after!”

“I absolutely love it here. Most welcoming cafe in sheen. The family is delightful and I love learning new Turkish words when I come. I love the Borek and the cakes too.”

“Exceptionally airy with a crisp foundation! Truly delightful! The mozzarella sticks were tasty as well, although they could benefit from a bit more seasoning.”

“I would like to say a big thank you to Helena and Zen for the fabulous Kitchen we have just had fitted. We absolutely love our bespoke hand painted kitchen built by there local Joiners. We chose their British range over the more contemporary German style and Reece who fitted it was a genius in his flawless work.. Best decision we made and highly recommend.. Thanks again and best regards Geoffrey & Christine”

“We had an incredible experience at this small family-run Lebanese restaurant! The owners were exceptionally friendly, guiding us through the menu and suggesting delightful dishes. The variety of both meat and vegetarian options allowed us to savor an array of flavors. The cozy atmosphere and fresh, delicious food make it a must-try spot. A gem in the culinary scene!”

“A super find when we searched for a gastrobar between Roedean & London. Food was excellent, and the service was superb. I appreciated how they tried their best to nudge things along as we had expressed concern over our schedule when we made the reservation. Loved the local garden inclusions in the menu. I would absolutely recommend this space and look forward to returning one day!”

“Wow, honestly what can I say. Understated location which packs a punch!! From the second you walk in, greeted by Zam and Sumit who were the best hosts all evening. But even the exceptional service was outshone by the supreme quality of the food. Unable to fault start to finish. Flavours like nothing else in the area. A must visit!!”

“An outstanding restaurant. The owner is very personable and hands on. The space is inviting. The food is extraordinary. Do yourself a favor and enjoy a meal here.”

“Really great Chinese takeaway. Much better than some of the other Chinese takeaways in the area that I've tried, and at a competitive price. I'll definitely be back as long as quality stays consistent.”

“Always a wonderful experience here! The staff are incredibly friendly and attentive, making you feel welcome from the moment you walk in. The food is consistently delicious. It’s the kind of place you can count on for both quality and service every time. Highly recommend!”

“What a hidden gem in Putney! The food was incredible and packed with flavour. The staff were kind and attentive, and it was a real value for money. Highly recommend the poppadoms as a starter!”

“First time visiting after seeing the positive reviews, and I thought I’d give them a try. I was greeted by two lovely ladies who took my order. I had the Labbuffata breakfast and was blown away! It was so flavorful and beautifully presented. Thank you for the amazing experience!”

“Hawthorn is 100% your new go-to spot in Kew/Richmond. For some background, everyone who I was with for dinner had previously dined at the Glasshouse at some point in their lives, so when we all arrived for dinner at Hawthorn, we were intrigued about how it would compare… AND WOW our expectations were blown out of the water. Not only did we each quite literally lick the plates clean, but we all felt that each course was complex yet also felt so simple and just plain delicious. We heard that the restaurant just opened a couple of weeks ago, but the food tasted as if the chefs have been cooking together for years. Whether you are there for lunch or dinner, either set menu is incredibly well priced (especially when the food quality is at this level). The sommelier is incredible, suggesting perfect pairings for each course to accommodate every taste bud or finding a bottle that works with a table of diners who ordered a mixture of seafood and meat mains! Conveniently it’s also right next to Kew Gardens station or a short walk from Richmond station - very easy to get to and definitely worth a trip. What an amazing new restaurant in Kew!”

“My new favourite place! Great atmosphere, you feel like you've been transported to italy. Really tasty sandwiches, pasta and salad dishes and yummy pastry!”

“Lovely coffee place behind the nursery. The coffee was great, Angel cake is also yummy. But the main highlight is the friendliest service we ever got in London (today morning, 16/9/2025 - I don't know her name, but she deserves all the positive feedback!). Thank you!”

“It’s great to be able to enjoy such delicious curry rice at such a cheap price. The staff are also friendly and polite. I’ll definitely come again.”

“Lovely restaurant with great atmosphere. Service was exceptional -particularly Julie who looked after us so well. Our evening was a delight and the best pasta we have had for a long time. Even our picky two year old cleared her plate! Will definitely make this a regular visit.”

“Restaurant serves delicious Indian food. Their Tawa Paneer and Butter naan are scrumptious. Service was good and the restaurant owner is exceptionally Kind and friendly!”

“I worked in London for about two years and was staying near Tangawizi. I ate there a couple times a week many many times over that two year time frame. I absolutely love it there. The food is phenomenal and always has the highest quality ingredients. The service is exceptional as well. Eight years later, we returned to the UK for my 60th birthday and I wanted to visit them again due to the fond memories I had. Our dinner this evening was just as phenomenal as ever. The flavors and freshness of the ingredients was incredible. The King tandoori shrimp are a favorite of mine and I literally got another order for dessert rather than a normal dessert. They thought I was joking when I ordered it for dessert! I travel frequently for business and have had the opportunity to eat at many phenomenal restaurants and they are at the top of the list with the best! I’m so happy they made it through the pandemic and now celebrating 20 years. I would highly recommend Tangawizi!”
