The 30 Best Restaurants in Twickenham

“What a pleasant experience. We were greeted at the door and seated by the friendly "Ben" who anticipated our needs throughout the evening. Ben brought us some complimentary warm focaccia and olives to nibble on while we made our menu choices. The menu has a good balance of dishes and I quickly decided on my choices along with a bottle of Ramaro for the table; I have a soft spot for Sicilian red wine. All dishes were well plated and tasted as good as they looked. The portions were also very generous, perhaps "Mama" was in the kitchen dishing the plates. After the meal, there was little room left for dessert, so I shared a panna cotta with my wife; I have to say that it was the best I've ever tasted. My only regret is that I didn't choose one of the seafood dishes, they looked realy appetizing. My relationship with crustacions has always been one where no matter what precautions I take while shelling them, a jet of oil always squirts out and slashes me on my shirt. Perhaps next visit I'll wear on old shirt or a bib; perhaps both.”

“I had the Linguine Granchio at Bella Vita last night and it was absolutely fantastic — perfectly cooked pasta with tender, flavorful crab in a light, aromatic sauce that tasted incredibly fresh. For dessert, the Tiramisu was heavenly — creamy, rich, and just the right balance of coffee and sweetness. Every bite was pure Italian delight! The service was friendly, and the cozy atmosphere made the meal even more enjoyable. Highly recommended!”

“Lovely little Italian spot in Twickenham! We had pizzas. Especially enjoyed the Caprino, which was packed with flavour. Finished off with a delicious tiramisu and a smooth limoncello. Great food and a warm atmosphere. Highly recommend!”

“Extremely well-located Lebanese restaurant - at the heart of Twickenham’s high street area. I mostly opt for takeaways. The restaurant is small but cosy. The food is delicious with a large vegetarian selection. Busy at all hours but the staff is mostly friendly! I liked the dishes, the crockery and the place has a buzz during the day, especially on weekends. On a recent dine-in we tried the yoghurt & cucumber starter dish, a couple of vegetarian wraps and a Meze platter for one - which was especially good value for even two people, if accompanied with a selection of 3 or so savouries! Tasty food and at good value. The staff are friendly and cordial, but the service isn’t exemplary - if only because the place is really busy at most times and staff are busier with the preparation. Even so, it’s the kind of local diner you’d find yourself visiting fairly frequently. I recommend it !”

“Really good Thai food with great flavors, and they were happy to accommodate special requests. Not cheap, but definitely worth it and highly recommendable. Try the coconut rice as a side - mouth watering!”

“Perfect Friday night go-to! (Meant to say this yesterday…. YUM! The food arrives hot even though it’s a long drive for the delivery person (sorry!), which really shows the quality.”

“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!”

“Had a delicious birthday meal here last week. Food was absolutely delicious (we opted for the tapas style dishes which were all very yummy) and our servers were extremely kind and welcoming!”

“The noodle dishes were excellent, full of flavor and cooked perfectly. We also had the Thai green curry and jungle curry, which were both very tasty. The jasmine rice and sticky rice went well with them. The staff were friendly and helped us choose our dishes. A big plus is that the chicken is halal. Overall, the food was delicious, and the service was great. Highly recommend!”

“Excellent burritos served to me by Abdul who was incredibly accommodating for my big order for my whole family gave another reason to keep coming back”

“Excellent food and service. Already looking forward to come back and try more Vareniki and Pelmeni!!!”

“Visited Stella's for the first time yesterday after being recommended by a friend, I must say I wasn't disappointed! Food was lovely,i ordered the smash burger and fries, it was delicious and reasonably priced. great atmosphere and friendly staff. Highly recommend. Will definitely be returning.”

“This unassuming restaurant by the Twickenham green offers a wide variety of classic Indian dishes. Very friendly and accommodating staff. Good for dine in or take away. Limited vegetarian options.”

“We went to the restaurant a couple of weeks ago as we wanted to try some authentic Italian food. The service is provided directly by the owner and it feels like you were in some place in Italy. Food was the best quality we have tried in the UK. Again, it makes you feel you are in Italy. The chef cuisine was fantastic and the even combined one of the pizzas with the famous “Porchetta”. Being Spanish, I felt the taste and warmth of the Mediterranean. Really pleased with the experience and 200% recommended”

“Panas is a fantastic destination for anyone seeking to experience authentic Nepalese cuisine in a warm and inviting atmosphere. The combination of delicious food, excellent service, and a comfortable environment creates a dining experience that is truly hard to beat. Highly recommended!”

“Absolutely love this restaurant, it is fantastic for veg and non veg entrees. We ordered the tandoori paneer—which came out in a sizzling iron platter, the stewed lamb curry, appetizer sampler and veg momos. Everything was so hot and delicious, flavors were phenomenal and we ordered a second round shortly after! Service was great too, we will definitely be back next time we’re in Twickenham.”

“The Thai kitchen here is first class. The pub is also very nice for a drink or two. But the Thai food is legit, been several times and it's often full, and even more encouraging - a LOT of Thai people eat there. One of the best Thai restaurants in London at the moment.”

“Had a heavy night on the town? Here's a perfect place for a recovery breakfast. Friendly, reasonably priced and good sized meals.”

“Great old-fashioned pub. Excellent selection of beers, great service and good-quality food. Prices very reasonable for the area as well.”

“I had the pleasure of visiting Sopa Thai restaurant for the first time, and I was truly impressed by my experience. Mr. Yogesh, who was my server on Saturday, provided exceptional service with such warmth and friendliness. It made me feel welcome and appreciated. And I have to say, the food was absolutely amazing! I left with a smile, truly grateful for the wonderful hospitality and delicious dishes.”

“A Thai Delight My wife and I loved our meal here. The Green Curry was perfectly balanced and flavorful with the Boiled Rice, and the Carrot Salad was a fresh, zesty hit. Great food and a pleasant experience overall. Highly recommend!”

“Very rare when I see Indian/ Asian restaurant don’t add oil to everything! Very fresh, spicy delicious and homemade Indian food! Their paneer is to die for”

“Room 407 – An Amazing Stay! Our stay in Room 407 was absolutely wonderful! The room was spotless, comfortable, and had everything we needed for a relaxing visit. The atmosphere was quiet and cozy, making it easy to unwind after a long day. A special shout-out to SABINA and DONNA for providing truly exceptional service. They went above and beyond to make sure we felt welcome and cared for throughout our stay — friendly, attentive, and always with a smile. Their professionalism and warmth made a huge difference and turned a great stay into an unforgettable one. We’ll definitely be coming back, and we highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for excellent service and comfort.”

“Incredible food as always I’ve never had a bad experience here. It’s such a welcoming atmosphere inside and I’ve never had to queue up to wait to sit down or had to wait for a long period of time for my food to be ready. Excellent price for the generous portions and really friendly staff.”

“If you want to eat the best chicken shish in London a must visit location… a lovely family owned kebaba shop which we have been visiting since I was little and now take my children.. well priced excellent food wonderful staff and fresh food highly recommended”

“Served by a lovely girl with curly hair in a ponytail and hoop earrings, I assume she was new from how her coworkers were talking to her, but she was brilliant nonetheless, perfect service from her. Especially in comparison when we first came to the bar and none of the servers came to us for at least 3 minutes”

“I’ve been here multiple times over the years and have always had first class service and quality food. The staff are always super welcoming and friendly and the atmosphere is great. An absolute go to for our group of mates who come here for our reunion lunches and catch-ups. 100% recommend, especially if heading onto a rugby game afterwards! Looking forward to our next visit!”

“For years, Golden Grill has been a staple in the community, serving up some of the best kebabs and Turkish flavours. With an incredible management team that keeps everything running smoothly, this place has built a well-earned reputation for quality, consistency, and great service. Their chicken shish kebab is a must-try—perfectly grilled, tender, and packed with flavor. It’s always cooked to perfection, making it a go-to for anyone craving a delicious, satisfying meal. But what truly sets them apart is their homemade chili sauce—the perfect balance of heat and flavor that takes every bite to the next level. The sides here are just as impressive. From creamy tzatziki to rich, flavorful houmous, everything is fresh and made with care. Whether you’re grabbing a quick bite or sitting down for a full meal, you’ll find generous portions and incredible taste at an affordable price. If you’re looking for a great local spot to skip cooking and enjoy an amazing dinner, Golden Grill is the place to go. Friendly service, unbeatable flavors, and a welcoming atmosphere—it’s no surprise this place has been thriving for years!”

“Best curry and Biriyani and food I’ve tasted in a long time. The lamb biriyani, the meat is cooked so tender it just falls apart in your mouth. 5 star all round. Lovely customer service. Love this Restaurant and food Thank you”

“First time at this particular PI and the difference between here and the one up the road (London Twickenham Stadium) are poles apart. There is parking but we turned up around 21:00 and I was lucky to find a spot; the car park does serve the Beefeater next door. The front door is automatic which is handy when you have a lot of bags but the inner doors are manual. We were greeted by a friendly, very helpful and enthusiastic member of staff. Our room was on the first floor (no lift) at the front of the building and although there was a busy main road and a bus stop outside it wasn’t that noisy. The room and bathroom seem bigger and as usual the bed is very comfortable. The wardrobe/ shelving unit is lovely and big, easily fits 4 days of our clothes and four big shelves for all your other bits. In this PI the rooms have A/C and having bus stops outside is an added bonus. Only negative is that the toilets don’t flush very well.”
