The Kazbar Tapas Restaurant & Bar - (Near Oxfordshire, london)

Mahliqa After a long day moving house in the heat, we were hoping for a hearty meal. We ordered jollof rice, egusi with fufu, and pepper soup. The jollof? Meh - bland and stingy on the portion. The egusi? V.oily but full of flavour - honestly the star of the show. But then came the meat situation. Each dish had one real piece of meat. The rest? .. Unchewable slabs of skin and fat masquerading as food (pictured) - the disrespect. I get that cow skin is a thing but this one clearly missed its softening appointment. Atmosphere-wise, the music was club-level loud. We couldnt hear the staff, and they couldn’t hear us. Cleanliness was questionable (sticky tables), and the vibe among staff was more house party than hospitality. I won’t be back, but shoutout to the egusi for carrying the whole night. 2/5 for that alone.

Kaua Mendes I have to say, this is easily one of the best-tasting chicken spots in Oxford. The quality and flavour are consistently excellent, and everything is prepared to a very high standard. What really sets this place apart, however, is the welcoming and friendly staff. The team are professional, attentive, and make you feel genuinely valued as a customer from the moment you walk in. If you haven’t tried it yet, I highly recommend paying a visit. A well-deserved 10/10 experience.

Sasha P Wow, amazing - out-of-this-world tasty food, excellent and friendly service and pretty special lattes! Can’t recommend enough, good thing we don’t live in this part of town, otherwise I’d probably be there every day they have food on. Favourites today were the aubergine curry and the stir-fried pork, although everything that comes out of this kitchen is truly magical! And so were the coffees - seriously good stuff, don’t think I have had such a great latte in ages. Thank you to everyone at Elle’s looking after us today! We had a special bday celebration today and everyone at Elle’s today was so very accommodating and kind to our group. One of us was coeliac and it was great that many of the options were gluten-free for them. Now, when can we go back next?

Romana Bencetic - Cencic . Bencetic Its good food....

Vaibhav Kukreja The best nepalese food in the UK hands down. I have been to multiple places around Manchester, London, Wales, Bath and so on. But nothing comes close. This is as authentic as it gets!

Nikita Pros: - the platter was fantastic. I’d probably ask for half the cabbage next time. - great service from the team. Cons: - we arrived as a walk-in around 4.30pm on a Friday. Food service began at 5pm and it suddenly got so busy! - very narrow roads around the pub so do park carefully. Thanks!
