The Best Restaurants in Streatham, Greater London, United Kingdom (2025)

The atmosphere was friendly, the staff and manager were very nice, helpful and accommodating. The food was very good. I only wish there were more homemade desserts.

Wow What an experience. We celebrated our Anniversary. We walked in and was greeted by one of the waiters. We were seated on these Palacial seats. The restaurant service was 5 stars, amazing staff. The choice of food on the well set menu was fantastic. Well presented and clear , pictures that described and displayed the food was unique. From the beginning to the end. The food was well seasoned and delicious. First experience of eating Lebanese cuisine, not the last. If you want 5 stars this has to be our favourite restaurant on Streatham High Road. Thankyou for making our day extra special. I loved when the owner greeted my partner and said "Hi Paul are you okay"? So update, had our wedding there, catered for 100 persons.The food exceeded all expectations. The service,staff food was exceptional. Brilliant Day it was welcoming the owners exceeded themselves and all the staff were accommodating. Both my husband and myself are so grateful to Nebeel and Charles for allowing us to use the whole venue for Our Special Day. Thank you so much. Mr and Mrs Harris ❤️

Most authentic and delicious Arabic restaurant in London! Loved its taste! I was invited there for a dinner party and loved the food and ambiance. Unlike other restaurants in London where space is always an issue, this place had plenty of space to host small parties! And the food was worth a try! Fell in love with Arabic food all over again in London

Went tonight for my father’s birthday the restaurant was so accommodating to us changing the reservation time and also increasing to number of guests. The atmosphere was very friendly and the staff were all amazing. There was a good variety of food and the staff were very helpful accommodating my very picky daughter. My lamb chops were cooked perfectly but to be fair the whole table cleared their plates and were happy with all the food. Will definitely be returning.

I came here on my own while waiting for my MOT across the road. The guy serving was really helpful and told me to get a meal deal to save money (mango lassi and aloo paratha) he also gave me a chai after and explained the difference between the pink chai and normal one. Lovely place, can only be improved by more people inside. Big portions too, I've taken some away!

The food was excellent and there are non spicy versions available. The portion was big and still pipping hot when I got to my final piece. The lassi wasn't too sweet. Thoroughly enjoyed the food and the service was brilliant, the staff were all very friendly and approachable

We got good service & opportunities to knows the history of how paratha in started also if you are looking for Better taste & place to chill I said must try place is waitin for you & get fresh parathas which is much better the Frozen Chai wala’s paratha’s. Well if you make a good connection with them they will offer you lot of dessert for free!

Sohail was really friendly - he was very welcoming and explained all the different parathas for me. I think it’s very rare to have a cafe with such friendly people in London. The chicken and cheese paratha was out of this world! Definitely will come again!

We’ve been served by Denas, which has been just great as the whole experience at the Monkey Leaf Cafe! Service smooth, food quality amazing, drinks 10 out of 10. Gem spot in streatham, definitely be back!

Best breakfast/brunch in Streatham! The quality of the food is exceptional, with service that's second to none The atmosphere is both friendly and cosy. Among our favourites are 'The Chorizo Egg Benedicts' and 'The English Breakfast'.

Great service from the man (owner) himself, Denas! Very friendly and welcoming! The drinks are great too! (Mai Tai Cocktail in the photo).

First time here yesterday for weekend brunch and it was excellent. Great menu of different brunch options and lots of interesting choices - it was difficult to decide which one as they all sounded so good. Lovely decoration inside and the staff were friendly and professional.

Our favourite local restaurant. Consistently amazing food (across the whole menu), great service and atmosphere. Make sure you book!

This review is months overdue, but I had an excellent time at Streatham Kitchen. I ordered their bavette steak medium and it was absolutely exquisite. Cooked exactly as I requested and the meat was perfectly tender and intensely flavourful. It came with fries & corn which I thoroughly enjoyed, and I finished off the meal with their excellent brownie & ice cream. Highly recommend a visit to this great restaurant!

Food was good , well marinated octopus, prawn dish was really nice , meat was ok , not amazing but good enough. The main problem was the service , I mean those young guys probably doing their best but the service was poor unfortunately. My wife call the waiter 3 times for cutlery and he didn’t hear us I guess then I have increase my voice to call him which was a bit unpleasant.

Can easily rival the best in Central London. The location is less than ideal, but the food more than makes up for it. The chef is a culinary master. Every dish was excellent. Generous portions so come hungry. Was busy on a Tuesday so book ahead. Service was friendly and considerate. Hope to see this restaurant proliferate to new restaurant branches. Can’t imagine how good the burgers are and look forward to coming back.

So good that before I got a chance to take the pictures half the dish was already gone!!! Flavours were so amazing, beautiful dishes. I was let down a bit by the pho which didn’t have as much flavour but still 5* for the rest of the food. Super attentive staff as well 💯🔥😍

Incredible food, very authentic. Great service! I had the bahn mi for lunch and decided to come back for dinner because it was so good. Went for the bun cha and that also tasted like I was back in Vietnam. Highly recommend!

I have come here multiple times now and love it! Great food and service. Thank you so much.

Lovely meal before the cinema, we went there at opening before the cinema and the service was prompt. The woman serving us was very friendly and polite. We had the duck noodles and the chicken curry and both were lovely. I also enjoyed the milk tea. Two drinks, two meals, and the tip came to just under £33 so it was very good value for money. I would definitely recommend coming here

I had my lunch at the Bull on Saturday. The food and service were fantastic. I loved the open fireplace in the cold weather. It makes the atmosphere more cosy. I wanna definitely come back for Sunday roast in January.

Fantastic roast chicken dinner. And great service despite the place being slammed. Highly recommend. And the beetroot and goats cheese salad was delish! Not cheap but most definitely worth it! Had enough for lunch next day :)

Came to the Bull for lunch on Friday. It was a beautiful summers day and their garden was the ideal spot. The food has a range of pub classics and healthy options. And great scotch eggs. Service was attentive. Thoroughly recommend.

Perfect Sunday roast- hadn’t booked but we’re sat down promptly. Hannah was lovely, polite and attentive throughout despite it being rather busy. The food was presented beautifully. Would return.

One of the best brazilian restaurants in london. We had the pizza rodízio and it was great - they had authentic brazilian flavors with homemade catupiry style cheese. The churros are also really good, with doce de leite filling. I saw other tables ordering pastel and picanha and it looked really good and authentic too.

Pleasant addition to Streatham Hill dining scene. Have to say I was pleased with the warmth of the greeting we received upon arrival. This wasn’t just professional/friendly, it made me feel that we were truly being welcomed. Came thinking I’d have a pizza, but couldn’t get excited about any of the pizza combinations on offer. Instead, I opted for the individual picanha (rump steak) served with a generous hunk of cheesy garlic bread. Tasty, and well prepared, though I wish there had been some sort of side vegetables to accompany, or even a vegetable side on the menu other than a salad I could have ordered. My dining companion had the feijoada which was also quite nice. I’m not a feijoada connoisseur, but Marinatto’s was as good as I’ve eaten in Brazil. House red was smooth and reasonably priced. Only disappointment of the meal was the starter of jalapeño balls. I’m not sure if these are made in-house or frozen, but I suspect the latter. Biggest problem was an almost total absence of jalapeños. My companion honestly thought that we’d been served an order of cheese balls instead (see photo). Total meal for two including wine and service £61.11.

We had a fantastic lunch today at Marinatto. Definitely the best pizzas I've ever eaten in the UK. The menu has lots of options of Brazilian food and the waiter Eddie was very attentive and helpful. Delicious Brazilian food, great service and a welcoming atmosphere. I highly recommend Marinatto.

The £19.95 pizza and salgado rodizio is amazing. I wish more places offered this. They let you have up to 4 flavours on a large pizza so you can sample all the options, and even have desert pizza. Great atmosphere/decor and chilled Brazilian music too.

Great food tasty food, friendly and approachable staff, cosy place, definitely an experience to repeat

I couldn’t fault the ambient of the restaurant from the service by Ifeanyi, the music by live DJ, the security guard was polite. More needs to be done about the food though. I had fish, garnished with fried yam/dodo, snail/vegetables, dodo/pepper sauce and tasted a bit of the pepper soup but did not feel that slap of spiciness of our typical naija delicacies! Agreed, not everyone can stand spicy foods but there should be options for everyone’s desire. Other than this, the presentation was superb! Thanks to Ifeanyi for a great service👍🏽 I will recommend this place to anymore.

The food, the drinks and the service is 10/10! Jordan was amazing too!

Nice cosy little restaurant, the staff there are wonderful and very polite. We got steak and salmon. Food was lovely but the strawberry cheesecake was simply devine. Would recommend

My husband ended up finding Bar 61 through google reviews and decided to take me for my birthday dinner. Let me tell you, he couldn’t have picked a better place! Mel and Met are amazing and gave us great personalized service. The food was exquisite!!! The restaurant is so very well decorated and makes you feel right at home. We didn’t just get amazing food at this restaurant? we got an experience and it is one I will treasure very dear to my heart. I recommend this restaurant 10000%! You will not be disappointed.

Excellent service and immaculate vibes. Food was delicious! Their Mediterranean prawns are so good. A special little restaurant

Went in for some tapas and drinks. The food did not disappoint. Although on the pricier end, it was well worth the money. Ambiance and atmosphere felt like being in Spain. Definitely coming back again.

Had lunch here with a friend on a Sunday afternoon and whilst it was pretty quiet and there was not much of an atmosphere, the food was delicious, big portions and the service was friendly and pleasant. The prices were very reasonable and definitely worth a visit if you are interested. Have eaten Polish food in Poland and this was just as good. Definitely worth an another visit!!!

We've been eating here at least twice a month for the past few years. The food is consistently delicious whatever we've eaten. The service is friendly without being pushy. Our go to restaurant for good food and a fun time. Try crispy potato pancakes with soft cream and smoked salmon, chicken in cheese batter, pork tenderloin with wild mushroom sauce and many more delicious dishes including desserts. A few vegetarian options too

Great atmosphere and food. The customer service is amazing and it feels a lot like home (like at my babcias)! It is on the slightly more expensive side as dishes range from £12-£30, but the portions are huge. I strong recommend for both families and dates!

This restaurant became one of my favourite after the first visit straight away. Everything made fresh from scratch and the prices compare to this is really great. Amazing portions and flavour.
