David davan y I had a wonderful time at Polentina with a friend and her baby. As soon as you walk in you’re met with an engulfing smell of what is on the menu that week and a nice, calm atmosphere with a huge glass window that looks onto the factory they’re located in. I’ve never been in such an unusual yet inviting place before. They were so accommodating and gave us the biggest table so we had space for the buggy. Alongside this excellent service, the manager Sebastiano chose some of the highlights for us and we enjoyed them alongside some refreshing natural white wine. I’ve never had calf’s brain before but it was so soft and light despite it being deep fried.

Balraj Singh Kidbrooke has been crying out for a store like this. Plenty of fresh produce. Great selection of organic goods and high quality items.

Ashley Knight A very welcomed addition to Blackheath!

A R I tried the Korean wings, Algerian wings, and the smash burger meal, and the whole experience was solid from start to finish. The Korean wings had a sweet and spicy glaze that sticks just enough without getting messy, and the flavor builds with every bite. The Algerian wings were completely different but just as good, with a spicy, tangy and smoky taste that keeps you going back for more. The smash burger meal delivered exactly what you expect from a good smash burger. The patty had crisp edges, the cheese melted perfectly into it, and the seasoning felt just right. The fries came out hot and fresh, not soft or stale, which made the meal even better. Service was quick, the staff were attentive, and the food arrived fresher than expected. The place was clean, comfortable to sit in and had a relaxed vibe even though people were coming and going. If you like wings packed with real flavor and a smash burger that truly delivers, this place is worth a visit. I would come back again just for the wings.

Bareha Ahmed The most amazing Mexican food! I’m originally from Oklahoma and have always had easy access to authentic Mexican, and since moving here it’s been the one thing I miss the most. Everything I ordered tasted like home and was so authentic. Don’t be put off by the bar/atmosphere, it’s totally worth it!

Tony Bird We’ve just had our 2nd lunch at O’neils Blackheath in just over a week. Once again, the value for money is excellent. We’ve had a variety of lunches in our separate groups, including the Scampi, sausages and mash, fish finger sandwiches and cheese and ham baguettes and, with drinks added to the £9.95 lunch menu, you really can’t go wrong. Joe and the team (including Bailey the Cockapoo) really do generate a relaxed atmosphere and they were very helpful in making sure we got the best value for the drinks added to the food. They also take their time in pouring a perfect Guinness so if you’re looking for an enjoyable lunch, excellent value for money, nice surroundings and great staff and service, definitely give them a visit.
