Bouchon Racine is a cozy neighborhood gem tucked above a pub, offering an intimate candlelit dining experience full of charm. The chalkboard menu showcases fresh, seasonal produce, and the wine list is both carefully curated and reasonably priced. The service is attentive and warm, adding to the overall inviting atmosphere. Though tables can be hard to come by, the effort is absolutely worthwhile for such a delightful dining experience. Highly recommended!

The food is exceptional here and along with the service makes it one of the top restaurants in London for French cuisine. Both of my visits were great, loved the rabbit and the veal as well as the pork chop. Would highly recommend for a special occasion and not spend a fortune ( estimate £100/person with a couple of drinks)

My friend and I had a fantastic evening. We were blown away by the chicken pâté – it was seriously one of the best things I've ever tasted. The rabbit was also cooked to perfection. The service was top-notch, the atmosphere was cozy and inviting, and the food was absolutely incredible. I can't recommend this place enough!"

100% the best pizza in London and my fave thing about living in Brockley. Delicious pizza (the macgyver is INCRED), friendly staff, stunning location and the rosemary and lemon dip just tops it all off. Get yourself there asap!!!

This is the best pizza in this part of London, period. The Mcgyver is a highlight, a great mix of spicy chorizo and sweet honey. The staff is super friendly and the location is cozy and suited for spending the whole day meeting with friends, working with your laptop, or just hanging out. Overall, amply recommended.

This restaurant really got the BEST of the best Italian pizza I've ever had in my life!!!! It smells so good and has really crispy crust, we couldn’t refuse but to come every month for a dinner or takeaway and the price is also very reasonable, very good place🤤

If you like traditional Italian pizza and a good atmosphere, this is a good place to come to. The owner is very friendly and likes to make jokes, and the food was amazing. Next time I'm in London, I am taking the time to make my way out here to order again.

Have wanted to pop in for while, and our visit exceeded all expectations. Service was on point, from the moment we arrived to giving our first order. We felt incredibly well looked after without feeling pressured. The food is incredibly well made and presented beautifully with a great wine and cocktail list. I’m lactose intolerant and the chef was kind enough to make two version of the Steamed Pollock, Puntarelle, Grilled Brassica Sauce & Bottarga - for me lactose free and the original dish for my partner. It’s attention to detail like this that will make us come back again. Incredibly delicious menu, cooked to perfection. The charred Flat bread was a welcome surprise, soft warm and fluffy. The Cured Chalk Stream Trout, Black Iberiko Tomatoes & Sunchoke Dashi - was just so delicious. We mopped some of the vinaigrette sauce with the flat bread, every mouthful was glorious. The Grilled Squid Skewers, Black Garlic Aioli & Roasted Chicken Skin - was incredibly fresh with a little zing to it. We wish we could have had more. Really recommend this place, you won’t be disappointed.

Lovely place ! Great service and the food was delicious. The wine is a bit expensive for what it is but that’s ok because everything else makes up for it. The service was wow everyone was super friendly and kind. The pork chop was AMAZING and definitely a must try. The bread was out of this world. Overall I would recommend this place for sure !

Phenomenal dinner experience, truly enjoyed it. Beautiful vibe in the restaurant, nice size to create a cozy vibe but still lovely with nice music and nicely atmosphere. Service - exceptional. All the dishes were fantastic! Truly enjoyed the Pork Choo in lobster sauce, Oysters and the flatbread. These were the stars of the show but none of the dishes disappointed us though. Had a few Negronis and these were perfect, wine was on the expensive side and for what felt like average wines. Cocktails offered better value.

Cute restaurant near broadway market. The food was nice, with some standouts like the flat bread, pork terrine, and fried quail. The space is quite small, and it can feel a bit cramped/loud so not great for a first date, but perfect for meeting with friends. Service was attentive, although sometimes felt a bit strange/overdone.

This entire experience was amazing. The preparation of each dish was fantastic. The double bone pork chop was by far the main attraction!! Delicious from beginning to end. Met some really awesome individuals as well, I'm not sure who was cooler Vic or Owen... or maybe Majid he was top notch behind the bar preparing my "medicine" haha! (Whispering Tyler)....Thanks so much! Until next time, cheers mate!

Matt and the team did a brilliant job catering at our wedding. We had canapes, sharing mains, and dessert- all the food was amazing and even some seasoned carnivores were very complimentary about the veg! The service was super professional and communication throughout the planning process was easy. We are definitely planning a visit to the restaurant soon!

If you’re looking for somewhere to eat in south London, I urge you to try Klose & Soan. This charming, intimate restaurant exceeds many we’ve tried in the area. Our server was extremely knowledgeable about the food & drink we ordered, and it’s clear the place runs on passion. Each dish was delicious, expertly crafted and presented, accompanied by a carefully selected range of wines. It’s just a couple of minutes from Deptford station, easy to find, and very reasonably priced considering the overall quality.

We shared pannise, aubergine and Lucy had sardines, I had the onglet steak, we followed with a nemesis and a panacotta. Everything was delicious, especially the pannise (favourite) The food was excellent The service was second to none. It was expensive (isn't everything now) but it was worth every single penny. We're deciding when to go again Fabulous

The decor is really nice, and the food is pleasant overall. The pho was good, and I enjoyed the squid cake. The salad, however, had too much dressing, which made it overly sweet. My ice coffee was only half a cup for some reason, I would’ve expected it to fill the whole cup for £5.

Best Vietnamese spot in New Cross! Pho 80 is such a gem. Lovely interior and atmosphere, great service and most importantly absolutely incredible food!!! Authentic Vietnamese spring rolls were the best I’ve ever had - so incredibly full of flavour. The rare beef pho has a rich, flavourful broth and very tender high quality beef. The noodles are perfectly cooked too. Would definitely recommend!

Derayo foods exceeded all my expectations. You do not often find a place where every ingredient comes together so perfectly. The attention to detail and commitment to guest service set it apart from the other African restaurants in London. Every dish we tried was bursting with flavor and cooked to perfection. They use the freshest ingredients and make sure each dish is done the right way. The peppersoup, efo riro, egunsi and jollof rice was especially memorable. Highly recommended!

From the savory jollof rice to the succulent suya skewers, fish and yam, Amala, Efo riro each dish at Derayo Restaurant was a masterpiece of authentic flavors.

Kekaki Izakaya

Arch 9, Deptford Market Yard, London SE8 4BX, UK

Highly recommend this family owned izakaya located right by Deptford station. Everything we ordered was brilliantly flavoured and really tasty - especially the sushi rolls, sweetcorn balls and gyozas, with the price being very reasonable. The owner and head chef was also friendly and appreciative of us dining there, so we will be back!

Food was good. We started with a mix of vegan plates to share, and we particularly enjoyed the mixed vegetable gyoza and the vegetarian kappa sushi roll. We then ordered some Bao buns: I went for the Korean spiced chicken, which I wasn’t particularly impressed by. It lacked a bit of spice, and the batter on the chicken bits was a bit heavy. My friend went for the Aburage Tofu option and she loved it. Drinks are pricey: £6 for a 33cl bottle of Asahi beer is a little too much.

What a great addition to the Deptford Market Yard. We tried several dishes on the menu, varying from karaage to sushi, all came out pretty quickly and was delicious. Very friendly staff, no cheap chopsticks, and nice atmosphere overall. Also very happy to have a Sapporo beer again! Definitely coming back to try more of the menu.

Great place with amazing and attentive service. Delicious food in generous portions! We visited for the first time since Kekaki is local to us not expecting much. How, the quality of the food and flavour was amazing. Very well executed slightly non traditional Japanese done exceptionally well. Amazing atmosphere inside, very lively and cosy which in spirit resembled a traditional Japanese Izakaya. Great place would definitely revisit.

What an incredible establishment! Despite being absolutely packed during my first visit (due to it being the final of the African cup of Nations) but I was welcomed and extremely well looked after. The staff worked hard despite how busy it was, the atmosphere was fantastic, but the food... wow! The attieke and tilapia reminded me of my youth, was expertly prepared and wrll presented. Absolutely delicious!! Very far from home, but I will certainly be back soon!

Had a delicious lunch there - I ordered sauce arachide with perfectly cooked, tender lamb. My dish was packed with flavour and in that moment I said 'I must travel to Ivory Coast very soon!!' The service was great - I arrived a bit early as I didn't realise they opened later but they still welcomed me, put on some great Afrobeats music and very generously offered me some nuts and a Bissap whilst I waited for my main meal to come - which still arrived quickly! My meal was delicious and I loved that it was served in traditional cookware - I left feeling full, happy and very satisfied! Would highly recommend it and will definitely be going back!

We absolutely loved both the food and the experience. We did the tasting menu (without the wine pairing), we picked our own wines which were also amazing. And you know the food is good when everyone has a different favourite dish on the menu, smart menu design! We appreciated the team also checking on us and asking for feedback.

We visited Perilla for a birthday meal, and the experience was a great blend of laid-back charm and sophisticated cool. We opted for the set menu, priced at £75 per person, which included four dishes. We also ordered the ham hock with mussels as an extra to try. To start, we had cocktails, which were fantastic—an apple whisky sour that felt festive, and a classic negroni. The bread served at the beginning was also excellent, with a rich caramel flavour. Every dish we tried was very good, but the highlight for me was the main course of duck breast with lentils. We paired our own wines, and the waitstaff were more than happy to provide recommendations. The food overall was full of flavour—complex yet simple in execution. It felt nourishing, featuring a variety of seasonal fruit and veg that complemented the dishes without overwhelming them. Our table was well-positioned, and it seemed like every table in the restaurant was thoughtfully placed. Unlike many other places, the tables here have plenty of space around them, making the atmosphere feel more intimate and comfortable. We never felt rushed and stayed for about two hours. One of the best parts of Perilla is their transparent pricing: the service charge is already included, so there are no surprises at the end. This upfront approach adds to the overall sense of value. In my opinion, the prices are extremely reasonable for the quality of the experience, which is fantastic.

Great food, atmosphere and delicious wine! My friends and I had dinner and it’s so lovely and rare to see such attention to detail in everything, starting with how attentive the service was, all the way to the ever-changing menu and the dimmed lights, candles and plants around. It’s so clear the restaurant is owned and run by people that love it, and it truly made my experience that much better. Their bread and butter were a showstopper! I had deer as a main, and it was out of this world! I would definitely come again and would recommend!
