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

We've had an amazing time here. The first time I saw this place I was walking by and it caught my eye, but it was fully booked. Tonight I managed to have an aperitivo and It was a great experience: great wine, good food, very accommodating staff. Shout out to Anna, thank you for guiding us through your wine selection, and Nicolas the manager. We'll be back

We booked here for a mini reception after our legal registry office wedding to celebrate. The staff especially the GM Nicholas could not have been more helpful and accommodating to our group. The food and wine was utterly wonderful. It is the perfect space for an intimate event! I can’t recommend it enough, it was fabulous and the service impeccable. We will be forever returning! Thank you all again!

I recently visited Humble Grape with my girlfriend and a friend, and we had a wonderful experience overall. We tried three bottles of wine, two of which were absolutely fantastic, though one wasn’t quite to our taste—but no big deal there. The food was enjoyable, though I might have indulged in a bit too much cheese, which left my stomach feeling unsettled the next day. That said, the atmosphere was great, and our host, Nicolas, was exceptional—very attentive and welcoming. I’d definitely recommend Humble Grape, especially for the wine and the excellent service!

Beautiful venue, love the small details like the cork walls and the wine crates used as shelves. Was there on a breeze date and was served by Jess who was attentive polite and honestly the best server I've experienced in awhile, definitely a gem to that place. I think the pick 3 offer comes with a stingy amount of jam and gherkins but with current rise in cost with delivery items I'm also not surprised. I had a wonderful time and would definitely visit again

My husband and I went down to Suya hut with our friends. We had an amazing time, the food was yummy, the atmosphere was serene and the service was the best part of my experience. The owner is so kind and thoughtful. It was definitely a taste of Nigeria, the Suya was delicious and the Asun was yummy. The highlight of the evening was the Suya shawarma, it was heavenly. We dined in and had takeaways.

Lovely eat in and take away food. We ate in and our food was delivered within 10mins. Good presentation, neat on the bus sitting. Great location and affordable price.

Really worth the visit ! Travelled over an hour as this place was hugely recommended for it suya. When we got there is was busy and you could tell it was a really loved and local spot for the community. Although there were no seats on arrival the lovely young women who welcomed us were able to seat us in the 30 minutes that they had speculated to us in the first instance. The food was to tasty, the portions were perfect. The menus was simple and effective! It was also so nice to see young people (possibly 18- 25) working at this establishment it's refreshing seeing toing people given positive opportunities to be a part of society . The only issue woth atmosphere was the music was a tad bit too loud for us but the owner took this feedback positively and was able to turn down the volume on request

Visited second year in a row for my husband’s birthday, we had the best night. All the servers were attentive and friendly, the food was amazing. I’d especially recommend the croquettes, burrata with figs, beets and the flatbread with gorgonzola. Thank you so much for making our night special, we will be revisiting very soon!

One of the best dinner experiences I had in London. Sitting at the high table you’re involved in the kitchen and it honestly makes the food taste better. I went to Archway Battersea on a weekday after booking two weeks in advance and it was full by the time I left so make sure to book. The food was overall really good. We started with the focaccia and by far the best focaccia I had outside of Italy, soft and salty. The pasta especially the Bottoni were a real experience it was like eating a Burrata Tomato salad but it was actually pasta. Burrata starter with pumpkin and chestnut was different than usual but definitely tasted good. Pappardelle with ragu was classic greatness and lastly venison was as good as it gets. We had the nonna’s tiramisu as dessert and it tasted like homemade as you expect. Also couldn’t resist to take Bombolone home and really enjoyed it. Lastly, the wine a bottle of Solosole went well with all of this. The staff were also very helpful. Explained the dishes in detail, made sure we’re happy and take what we need also being friendly at the same time.

Another newly opened restaurant that’s impossible to get into without a reservation . The restaurant was filled with flickering candlelight and a lush view outside. Such a romantic atmosphere 🫶 A foodie friend raved about their prawns, said they were finger-licking good, but the menu changes often, so we missed out this time. The server was lovely and recommended a few of her favorites. 🙌 Here’s what I’d suggest: ▫️ The flatbread appetizer felt like a freshly baked pizza. We had the tomato basil, but the ham option looked tempting too! ▫️ The mushroom risotto was fantastic! The mushrooms were meaty, and the risotto had a slice of pure ham fat on top that melted into deliciousness—perfect with wine! ▫️ The sea bass was decent, with a good texture👌 ▫️ I loved the desserts! The most praised was the lavender cream donuts, but three in a serving was a bit much. They were crispy on the outside, tender inside, not too soft or greasy—hard to finish though. The other dessert was like a lighter cheesecake with a tangy sauce—refreshing and not too heavy, I really enjoyed it! Located under the arches at Battersea train station. For those in Nine Elms and Battersea Power Station, it’s a short walk away. Small place, so make sure to book in advance!

A huge thank you to Prince Albert for hosting our engagement party. Special shout outs to Michaela, Gui, Jeremy, Fran and Liz who were fantastic and helped with every tiny detail. Highly recommend this place for anyone wanting to host a party, nothing was too much trouble and they made sure that our event was exactly how we envisaged. From all the specific requests, to the decor and excellent service, food and wine. Definitely one for the memory books and we’re so grateful. 💕

I can’t say anything bad about this place. The food is fantastic, the cocktails and the ambience. The personal are very kind and friendly. The emplacement is just amazing with Battersea park next to. I come a lot because I work close and it’s really ideal have such a friendly place. The ambience could be very familiar on weekends and I definitely recommend the Sunday roast.

Fabulous Sunday roast. Lovely roast beef, red cabbage, crushed roots (swede etc mash), plenty of gravy and an outstanding Yorkshire pudding which tasted as good as it looked. The only thing that let it down was that the roast potatoes weren’t crispy. Great wine selection. Really friendly service especially from from Tom. Dog-friendly. Loved it!

We hosted our wedding in the bridge room and the staff were so helpful and made it absolutely perfect. We were able to set up the room the night before which was very helpful! Every guest made a comment to me that the food was so good! thank you for accommodating such a special day!

I had a wonderful late lunch here. The food was delicious, and the service from John was exceptional—he was attentive and genuinely kind. I’ll definitely be returning!

Delicious Food and Stellar Service by John! Dining at Delicio was an unforgettable experience for all the right reasons. Let’s start with the food—it was simply divine. Each dish was expertly crafted, with fresh ingredients and flavors that danced on the palate. The starters were a perfect blend of creativity and taste, the mains were hearty and satisfying, and the desserts? Absolutely indulgent. Whether you're a fan of bold, exotic flavors or prefer a comforting classic, there's something for everyone on the menu. But what truly made our visit exceptional was John—the most amazing waiter a restaurant could ever have. From the moment we were seated, John’s warmth and professionalism stood out. He took the time to explain the menu in detail, offering thoughtful recommendations based on our preferences. His timing was impeccable, ensuring our glasses were never empty and that each course arrived at just the right moment. John’s charm and attention to detail elevated the entire evening. He made us feel like VIPs, creating an atmosphere of genuine care and hospitality. It's clear he takes great pride in his work, and it shines through in every interaction. If you're looking for a place where delicious food meets world-class service, Delicio is the spot—and be sure to ask for John! He’ll make your dining experience truly special

Good place for Brunch if you live around the area. I had a lovely pancakes and freshly squeeze juice. I don't recommend the egg benedict with smoked salmon. The salmon quality is not good, I'm sure with the price they charging this for they could get a better quality of smoked salmon. They have such and extensive range of menu so totally coming back to try other things !

I have been here twice now and the food is so goooddddddddd and the service is amazing big shout out to John. he is always so friendly and just the sweetest and he’s service is top tier.

Been few times to this restaurant since 2020 and most recently in December 2022 when it seemed renovated. Visited on 17/01/2025. You have to pay for parking at the Iceland car park which I was made aware of when I was seated which you previously did not need too. Was given the complimentary bread and the sauces - bread was not as good as other restaurants I’ve been too where you are also provided with hummus. Ordered the Lara Mix Grill and Chicken Beyti. The quality of the meat is very good here. The chips portion could be bigger as we did replace it instead of having the rice. Interior was nice but seating is cramped. Service was good despite it being loud.

Atmosphere and cleanliness was spot on, 10/10, service was impeccable; staff are attentive and listen so orders are accurate and the food was amazing. The Lara special grill plater can easily feed 3 people unless your a hungry man then it will feed 2. Great tasting food around and fresh off of the grill. If you are celebrating a birthday it’s defo worth booking as they also sing their own version of hbd with you. Toilets are also clean and maintained.

Outstanding atmosphere, the best mash potato ever (I don’t even particularly like a “normal” one) & bread (wow!). Cons: long wine list but no Portuguese one, including Port which would perfectly match your desserts. Overall, great customer service and great experience.

I was given a voucher for a set lunch menu which was tried and tested today and wow was it incredible! Firstly I was blown away that a £50 voucher covered all the food received - these plates rival Michelin star food so it felt like an incredibly reasonable deal considering the time and attention to detail each dish must be given. Secondly the food simply tasted amazing. So fresh, delicate, rich in the right amounts and just a joy from start to finish! I would highly highly recommend Ploussard and look forward to coming back someday!

Boy have I travelled far for this meal but it’s worth it. We had the tasting menu and had a good taste of most of their dishes and we are full and happy by the end of it. We loved the atmosphere and it’s really cozy when it gets darker. The only thing is that when I asked to sit on another table when I got there, they made me feel a bit of a trouble when the restaurant is basically empty with many tables available.

Very nice atmosphere (especially for a Tuesday), lovely food and wine! Avoid the prawns, tasty but too small and they advised to eat with the shell on. I’m not sure if this was to try and distract from the poor portion size 🧐. The duck was incredible. A little expensive for what it was but would go back again

Had lunch here with a Greek mate. He liked it. I liked it too. Haven’t tried their salad. Will come back for that to see if it taste as good as the one in Greece.

Great food, always fresh and tastes great. The menu is simple and small, which enables the chef to really concentrate on producing excellent tasting food. They are also available for delivery through the usual companies.

Taverna Trastevere has a cozy, welcoming vibe with friendly staff and a good selection of wines. The Cacio e Pepe is creamy and well-seasoned, perfect for pasta lovers. The dessert trio offers a delicious variety, each one sweet and satisfying. A great spot for a classic Roman meal.

Amazing food. The best carbonara i’ve had. The desserts are absolutely delicious as well. Could not fault this restaurant. A little bit in the middle of nowhere for me, but honestly the travel there was so worth it. I’ll be dreaming of this food for a while and i will definitely be going there again.

Last night, I dined at a restaurant in Zona 2, London, and overall, the experience was a mix of highs and lows. We started with bruschetta and Burrata, both of which were fresh and flavorful. For the main courses, we had Carbonara and Tonnarelli Alla Grigia, and both dishes were expertly prepared. To finish, we enjoyed Mille Foglie and Roch Pistacchio, which were delightful. Despite the quality of the food, the bill was exceptionally high, especially considering the restaurant's location outside Central London. Some of the prices were even steeper than those at restaurants in central London. Additionally, it is intriguing to note that the Aperol Spritz costs £10 at the bar directly opposite Trattoria Trastevere, while it costs £12 at Trattoria Trastevere itself, despite both being on the same street in the same location. The toilet facilities were disappointing. They were dirty, with old furniture and unappealing dry flowers that detracted from the restaurant's atmosphere. I also noticed two waitresses were confused about where to place plates. Overall, it was a great experience, but I'm uncertain if I would return.

One of Gordon Ramsay’s flagship locations. Dishes were great but felt little underwhelmed. I’ve eaten at his hells kitchen and other restaurants and found them to be little better overall. Also sticky toffee pudding with a little overcooked and dry, but the staff was helpful and didn’t charge for it, but still, I would’ve expected better from his flagship locations.

Best place to have a party or wedding day

I recently visited and was absolutely blown away! From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was warm and inviting, with beautiful decor and a cozy vibe. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, making sure we had everything we needed. The food? Simply divine! Every dish was cooked to perfection, bursting with flavor, and beautifully presented. I’ll definitely be coming back!
