Quick dinner 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.”

“I had my 40th here and it was excellent! The staff couldn’t have been more helpful. The spaces are a good size, I was allowed to decorate the area and the food was brought out on time and was delicious. I would certainly recommend The Elm if you are looking to mark an occasion, or even for a meal as it was so good. Thanks all!”

“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 :)”

“Always very helpful staff. 3 of them been amazing whenever I pop in with my parcels. Very nice chatty, friendly people and very helpful.”

“A burger that melts in your mouth, lovely seasoned chips and a brownie I just cant stop thinking about!!!!! Perfect after getting off the train after a long day. I can't wait to come again! Are two brownies in one day frowned upon???”

“Food was absolutely fantastic, staff were so lovely - was a perfect place for dinner, will definitely be coming back We ordered the beef and chicken pho with summer rolls - everything was delicious”

“We are a regular customer for teas and coffees and it’s our first year getting our Christmas tree. Wonderful, friendly service. We had a lovely experience picking our tree and the staff made it very special for our kids. 100% recommend it”

“The food was excellent, atmosphere fantastic and staff wonderful. It was amazing”

“Came at 16:00 with my wife, the family run restaurant are nice and the food is authentic and great value. Casual dining that hits the spot in a peaceful environment.”

“I’ve visited a few times in the last month, predominantly to grab coffee and work. The staff are always very friendly and last time I visited with my partner, we were given a free pot of Persian tea, which was delicious. The coffee (particularly cappuccino) is excellent, as are the smoothies. The food is very good on the whole, though I would personally prefer the bacon fried or grilled. Would highly recommend popping by for a coffee and breakfast/brunch.”

“They have some of the most comforting burgers, I always love coming here. I have been coming here for months and the level of quality has always maintained high. Definitely recommend this place.”

“Service is really good and the guy is really lovely. We are very happy this being our local cafe. Delicious coffee and pastries (we had a jam donut and almond croissant). Highly recommend.”

“Really glad I have finally tried this shop after being a customer for many years in another kebab shop just down the road but has deteriorated in the last couple of years. Ace Kebabs are absolutely fantastic, great service, excellent telephone manners, efficient, competitively priced and super tasty. The kebabs here are juicy, which was drizzled in chilli and garlic sauce on request. This is now my new favourite local takeaway. Thanks guys!”

“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.”

“Lovely place! My partner and I go here all the time. The people are friendly and welcoming, always so helpful and there is always a good stock of everything you could need. Thank you!”

“Not too shabby! Great Customer Experience and the food was pretty decent.”

“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!”

“I’ve recently moved into the Surbiton area and have steadily made my way around the various eateries that Surbiton and Kingston have to offer. I’d say this is probably the best food I’ve had in the area and I’d fully recommend those looking for a quality place to make the stop. 5/5”

“Lovely little hidden gem. Amazing hospitality and amazing food. Never tried waffle pizza before, its a taste sensation. Waffle really does bring out the flavours on the topping. Portions are super generous too. Have one last night in Tolworth and I'm deffo going back for more. Homemade, Creativity, independent and welcoming what more do you need on a dining experience.”

“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!"”

“I have been coming here every Thursday for 18 years!! It started off as a treat when I was 11 after dance class and now has become a tradition. Seriously good quality fish n chips and goes nicely with a glass of wine. Don't listen to the 1* peasants below. They are what we call 'Karens' these days!”

“Experience has always been pleasant. Fast service even when they are busy if you are in store to pickup. I must say their food tasted really fresh, not too salty and tasted home cooked. Crispy chilli beef is amazing! Quality of all food is consistent.”

“"Exceptional experience at 360 Restaurant! The cocktails were expertly crafted, and the food was truly brilliant. The staff were well-trained, friendly, and attentive. Special thanks to F&B Incharge . Vel and his team, particularly Raman, Lili, and Parbat, for their exceptional service. The manager's leadership shines through in the team's performance. Highly recommend!"”

“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.”
