“Great little place, very authentic, reasonable price. Prawns are proper big ones and tasted fresh. Noodles got alot of flavours, slightly on spicy side but can ask to reduce.”

“A lovely Indian restaurant with amazing food and wonderful staff. Every dish is full of flavor, and the service makes you feel right at home. Highly recommend for a great meal!”

“Absolutely Outstanding! Soor Lebanese Restaurant exceeded all expectations — from the warm hospitality to the incredible flavours. Every dish was fresh, beautifully presented, and bursting with authentic Lebanese taste. The hummus was creamy perfection, the grilled meats were tender and juicy, and the freshly baked bread tied it all together perfectly. The staff were friendly, attentive, and made the whole experience feel personal and welcoming. The ambience was elegant yet relaxed, perfect for both casual dinners and special occasions. Highly recommend to anyone looking for genuine Lebanese cuisine done right — can’t wait to come back!”

“We had breakfast here before visiting Harry Potter Studios and had a friendly welcome, great value good food and the best coffee I have had in a cafe ever. Honestly, I wish I didn't live 100miles away!”

“My son and his friends had an amazing time celebrating his birthday at the café! They loved the great food, unlimited squash, and getting to choose their own ice lollies. The party was held right inside the skatepark, which meant endless fun for the kids, while parents could relax and have a chat over nicely chilled drinks. A huge thank you to Ryan and the entire team — they were incredibly friendly, organised, and attentive throughout. From the moment we arrived to the very end, everything was taken care of with a smile. The staff made sure the kids felt welcome and excited, and nothing was too much trouble. It was a stress-free experience for us and such a fun-filled day for the children. I’d definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a brilliant kids' party venue with top-notch service!”

“Excellent Italian Restaurant in Watford! This is a fantastic Italian restaurant with delicious food, generous portions, and great value. The flavors are authentic, and every dish is well-prepared. Service is very efficient, even during busy lunchtime hours. The fact that it’s always packed shows how popular it is with locals—I believe it’s a well-renowned spot in the area. Located in a very convenient spot in Watford, it’s definitely worth a visit if you’re looking for quality Italian cuisine. Highly recommended!”

“I always come and eat here every weekend , the staff are really friendly and their food is really great and really good portions , and when I was about to write this review I saw a review a “customer”saying they have 3/5 food rating which I didn’t believe because the store looks really clean and tidy even on a weekend after I saw their 5 star sticker so don’t believe the lies guys”

“I really enjoyed everything about this place. They have different style rooms depending on where you prefer to eat. I ordered the goats cheese and beetroot as the starter which was fantastic. I got the side of the tomato beef ragu pasta which was amazing but exactly the right size for my small appetite that day - they also brought a whole bowl of Parmesan for me to help myself. For dessert I ordered the brownie and doughballs with Nutella which came with icecream. I personally was not a fan of the brownie or the ice cream I wish there had been the option to just have a bowl of the doughballs as I had seen in other reviews as these were amazing. The tables were quite close together and it was really quite loud. I hope they invest in some sound absorbing panels. I would recommend and will be coming back. I have been again since and the pasta was still fantastic. We also ordered the mushroom risotto however this was lacking a bit of flavour, the walnuts were a nice touch. I do have to say the staff are fantastic about making adaptions to meals to intolerances.”

“Best Chinese takeaway in Watford by a country mile. Excellent food, great portion sizes. Food very fresh and always hot. Top delivery driver as well.”

“Best take away in oxhey hands down, every dish is tasty and usually piping hot. Forget any other local Chinese, this is the one. They don't provide a delivery service on any apps so you have to collect, but for the quality it's more than worth it. No dine in available either fyi. But I wish there were!”

“Lovely place provided good food and excellent service”

“Really nice food. We ordered for take away. The waiting time was not very long, for 3 dishes we've been waiting around 10-15 min. We had a picnic in the park, the trip took us 15-20 min, when we arrived the food was still very hot and delicious. Very nice serving and packing. Definitely we'll try again next time.”

“Always a warm welcome and briliantl food. Tuesday night for the deal (Starter, main, veg, rice or nan) is great value”

“Visited this place today and I must say it's phenomenal. From the atmosphere, food and service, everything was pin point perfect. The prawn starter was delicious. The mixed platter was to die for and the bolognese was so amazingly tasty. Not to mention, all the staff was extremely friendly and helpful. Will certainly visit again and so should you all.”

“Stepping into this restaurant feels like stepping into a cozy corner of Eastern Europe — every wall is alive with culture, from embroidered fabrics and musical instruments to rustic crafts that tell a story of heritage and pride. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, making it the perfect place to slow down and savour a hearty meal. But the real highlight is the papanași, a traditional Romanian dessert that completely stole the show.”
