Came for lunch on a Friday, the restaurant and bar area were both busy. The food was excellent, with the standouts being the bone marrow starter and honeycomb ice cream for dessert. The service was friendly without being overbearing. Prices were reasonable given the quality of food Can’t wait to visit again!

I would recommend coming here. The service and food are great. I had the venison broth and (special) hare saddle which were both fantastic. Is very difficult to get reservations here, and I can see why.

Absolutely stunning restaurant! I was here recently and had some of the most fantastic food. Firstly we were pleasantly greeted by a lovely gentleman (didn’t catch his name but he was super chatty and lovely). And we were seated right by the kitchen which was perfect! Loved seeing the chefs work, one of them was butchering a whole pig at one point - incredible! The food was an easy 10/10. The bone marrow was easily the best dish we had, it’s obvious why they run out of this so quickly. The pork head and broth was so rich and delicious and we loved the lamb and the blood cake too. And how could I forget the Welsh rarebit. So rich and delicious. I want this again! And I’d go back just to have the bone marrow again and again. Highly recommended.

One of my favourite restaurants in the world and one of the best arguments for British food I've ever experienced. The staff were incredible, the perfect balance of attentiveness and leaving you to enjoy your food and company. They also advise on how much we should order (they actually suggested that we ordered too many side dishes) as well as wines to pair well with different dishes. The food itself was, as you would expect, exceptional. The famous Bone Marrow exceeded the hype, we had Pigeon and Sole which were beautifully cooked with the perfect accompaniments. This place has made me wish Welsh Rarebit was available as a side in every restaurant. The meal overall was very good value for money considering the amount and quality of what we ate. Absolutely looking forward to going back at the soonest opportunity.

I made a reservation for 7 people here and they are waiting for me at the door even tho i arrived a bit early. We are seated as soon as we go in with a warm Italian welcome. Menu has great choices with very appealing seafood items. The quality of the food is way beyond the price point. Everyone were very satisfied by the end of the meal with the food and services. True gem in London!

First time customer, ordered the Margherita pizza and it was delicious! Perfect ratios of cheese, dough and sauce. Flavour was not too strong but not bland. Super thin and crispy base. Definitely will return.

Been walking past this place for 20 years. Finally visited after many recommendations as only hear good things about this place. Didn't disappoint. Loved the food, loved the atmosphere, loved the price. La Luna has a nice traditional feel about it and will definitely return soon. Thank you for having us.

Our most favourite unpretentious but quality go-to Italian restaurant in London. We’ve moved around the city a bit and no matter where we end up we keep coming back here. Great quality for a reasonable price. We’ve brought friends and family here and between us we’ve had different pizzas, pastas, risottos, starters and desserts, and everyone was always happy. The service is also top-notch. Everyone is kind from the kitchen staff to the manager, and they make you feel like home. In a city like London, this is priceless.

Been here a few times now and it doesn’t disappoint! Delicious food in a casual setting. Quiet on a Friday night. Delicious shawarma, would recommend the mixed plate. Also the kibbeh was top!! Did enjoy the fattoush and baba ghanouj. Would recommend for a solid shawarma in London.

I’ve been here a few times but decided to come here today for lunch - chicken shawarma wrap, chips and a drink for £10. Absolutely no complaints! The chicken was perfection and tasted just like one straight from Lebanon. Although I have come here a few times for take outs it wasn’t that great but this time dining in the experience was much better! Nice portion in the shawarma and chips too. The guys here are super polite and friendly too! Hidden gem in the south of London deffo worth a visit- they even do shisha for the ones who like it. Other shawarma shops around Camberwell might be a tad cheaper but they have no reflection on what’s going on here the authenticity of how a shawarma should be made!

We like to come back to this place time to time. Food is decent and the selection is good. Prices are also acceptable, and you can also do shisha here ( no alcohol though). Service is fine. Outside seating is available and there is a beautiful big tree a the front which adds to the atmosphere. Wraps are good. The mezze is really nice and everything is prepared freshly in front of you. Juices are also freshly squeezed. Food is filling and flavourful. Lots of salad options available if that is something you are keen on as well as some lunch deals, though we never had the luck to try them. Baklavas are good but the other dessert we wouldn't recommend. Otherwise, it is a lovely place and we love to pop back every now and again.

Beautiful and quite elegant canteen, focusing on classic dishes. You could either sit inside or in their heated tent. Located by a lush cute garden, in a calm neighborhood. Very popular, so a reservation is recommended to dine here. Food was good, but slightly overpriced perhaps. Service was polite, but not the warmest nor happiest.

Iconic restaurant with the lovely garden setting- the food is always delicious and generous. Service is pleasant and the tent at lunch/ early evening time seems always convivial. Really enjoyed the classic watermelon feta salad this time around and the meats were lovely and filling. Keep coming back!

City Social offers a stunning dining experience with breathtaking views of London. The food is beautifully presented and tastes fantastic, though the portions are on the smaller side, especially considering the high price. Service is excellent, and the ambiance is refined, making it ideal for special occasions. Overall, a 4.5-star experience – a bit pricey, but worth it for the quality and setting.

The Best Nigerian🇳🇬 restuarant/takeaway on Walworth Rd👍. Excellent customer service, very warm and friendly staff, food cooked fresh and tvery tasty. Jollof rice is great, with prawns and Nigerian fanta. I dined in with my mother (supporting local businesses) and the manager and new staff treated us so well. The chef is also very passion about his food. Asked us if we enjoyed our meal and we did👌. Totally recommend this shop. A great go to. 👍

The restaurant was great , very nice aesthetic, great food, good music and good service. Only issue was there wasn’t any Mac n cheese or rice noodles when I went, and that’s what I wanted to order when I was there. But the food I got was still really good!

Staffs are nice but service is not up to standard when u asked for a fork ,or plate they are asked you if u really needed? A glass ? Yes i drink inside a glass 😁. Still the foods is nice but very spicy🤩🤩my mouth was on fire. They needs to adjust the spice a little bit. Even as a person eating spicy foods,this was to hot. Children cannot cope with the spice so family will not be able to come and enjoyed or even discovers something new. THIS IS IN PLACE OF PAN & GRILL WHO CLOSED DOWN😢😩😩 so SAD ABOUT IT. XX

Wow!!! It was worth the wait ordered grilled Tilapia came with plantain, a side salad and a portion of chicken Gizzards in tomato sauce. the taste was amazing. The staff were friendly and apologized for the long wait. To my surprise when I got home 2 soft drinks were gifted to my meal. For sure will be going back soon.

Friends and I had a wonderful dining experience at this restaurant. It’s a hidden gem in the city. The views from the rooftop are spectacular. The areas are well maintained and many photo opportunities for memories. The staff were wonderful and catered to our every need above and beyond they were led by head waiter Lenny who was fantastic in his service. Lenny was interested in his guests and gave pleasant conversation which we were delighted by and just hearing how much of the world he had seen was a great pleasure adding to the delight of the dining experience in such a lovely atmosphere. The rooftop views are spectacular and time was still spent taking photo opportunities to save happy memories. We will definitely go back there again and we will have lunch and stay till it closes. Drinks were perfect and selections plentiful. 10/10 all day long. Well done team.

Having been invited to Sunday Lunch, I was as impressed with the staff as well as with the menu and the location. The 3 course Sunday Lunch option is more than fairly priced for the excellent food you get. All the staff was very friendly and the location is great. Can only highly recommend this restaurant!

This is the best experience in London. I went to some fancy restaurants but I wasn’t happy with the service and food. This establishment has everything on a high level. The food, the wine selection and the service were excellent. I had reservation for a lunch but now I am going to be back for dinner because I want to try more of their food. The place is located on the roof top so you have to find an elevator. Just use google map and it will take you to the lift.

Great food, although the fries are a letdown. If you're doing Wagyu and pair them with fries, they would need to be better than what you get in McDonald's. The staff were amazing. Would definitely come back.

We recently enjoyed the express lunch, which offered excellent value for money. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, making the experience even better. The food was delicious, and as a special touch for my sister’s birthday, the server acknowledged our request and surprised us with homemade chocolate truffles. To top it off, the server kindly arranged for us to access the roof garden for pictures, making the celebration even more memorable. Overall, it was a fantastic experience!

Let's say Ivy is always a safe choice. Warm colourful interior, very nice & attentive staff and good selection of food, wines, cocktails... All dishes look great but missing a bit of extra touch in regards to the taste. Paid 30£ for a blackened cod fillet with green beans. No salt or pepper on it, nothing special really.

A great spot for a city/working lunch staff were attentive. The venue had a relatively relaxed vibe and almost felt like a total escape from the city hustle and bustle. The 2 courses for £20ish is a relative bargain. Food was pretty good for the price and well presented. Definitely going on the list for convenience and price point.

Waited a few weeks to share this... Christmas menu was pretty spot on - the fried squid was a bit disappointing, but the first time I've had it present like that. Wasabi mayo was good - turkey, really tasty. I only ordered it for festive reasons and it kicked my expectations out the door. Perfect balance with cranberry sauce. I thought the main was a bit small, but really nice. - the snowman. Just get it. Worth the surcharge, fun, satisfying and gorgeous. Service was really nice. Though apparently the service charge doesn't get given to the staff? The reception staff were a bit clinical and cold, I saw people waiting like tools a bit for awhile. So that might spoil the experience. In general, beautiful and elegant venue

Booked here for my partner's birthday, we were welcomed at the door and our coats taken to be hung up. The restaurant was fairly full and had a great atmosphere. Our waitress came along promptly, introduced herself & asked if we wanted water for the table. Gave us time to look at the menu before ordering. My partner had the Asian Duck salad followed by the pork schnitzel and I had the mozzarella followed by the Tuna, we ordered green beans, broccoli spears and mash to go with them. The food was well presented and very tasty...we were too full for desserts. Highly recommend this restaurant

A truly friendly, proper community cafe in a historic corner of South London. I've had coffee, a snack or a boozy drink here many times over the last decade or so. We also recently hired the excellent upstairs space very last minute for our son's birthday and had a wonderful time. The owner and staff are always extremely friendly and accommodating.

Local to work, it does have more choices of authentic dishes and would recommend the beef brisket with mooli, but portion size seemed to have shrinked overtime (sometimes saturated with too much oil!). Prices are above average, not the cheapest. Nice decoration, which i recalled it was closed for a long time for refurb. Sometimes you get staff are trained, and sometimes you get amateurs, but hey, gotta start somewhere. General vibes, this is the fancier higher end chinese restaurant compared to the others, but there's food/taste competition nearby.
