Tiffin Kitchen - (Near , london)

Oseko Lomanga This is the number one Congolese restaurant — truly the best of the best. No one rushes you or chases you out after you finish your food, which makes the experience even better. It’s the best Congolese restaurant in the world, in my opinion. I felt like I was at an immunotherapy party — bravo! Please keep it clean as usual. It’s a great place to take your partner and enjoy a proper meal in a relaxed atmosphere. Only a few things could be improved, such as the kamundele — it wasn’t very good this time. Maybe changing the preparation method or the type of meat could make it better. Overall, an excellent place and highly recommended.

Dixie Doubleday Thank you so much everyone who did service was so kind and welcoming. And the people who cooked the food thank you the most definitely amazing food

Anna Li Volsi Absolutely outstanding, this place is a true gem. From the moment you walk in, the atmosphere strikes the perfect balance between warm, welcoming, and effortlessly stylish. It’s the kind of space where you immediately feel comfortable, whether you’re here for a casual meal or a special occasion. The staff deserve special praise. Every visit, they have been attentive, friendly, and genuinely caring, without ever feeling intrusive. You can tell they take pride in what they do, and that energy makes a huge difference in the overall experience. And the food simply exceptional. Every dish is beautifully presented, thoughtfully prepared, and bursting with flavor. The consistency is what truly stands out: this is my fourth time coming back, and each visit has been just as impressive as the last. It’s rare to find a restaurant that delivers at such a high level every single time. This is the kind of place you recommend without hesitation and keep returning to again and again. I’ll definitely be back and many more times to come. Keep up the amazing work!

Darren Bullish aggressive customer service. Do not put yourself through the ordeal of conversing with certain staff members! to be patronised and talked down too, without provocation. I Ordered all the food and said,”can you please put sauce on three of the meals please?” I was told they don’t do that and they will fill up 3 pots and charge me silly prices for each pot. I said,” just give me the meals and I’ll squirt the sauce from the bottles from the tables and then fully wrap the meals to take away.” They wouldn’t allow me to do this and said,” that I’d have to pay for the sauce,”even though it’s sitting on the tables to use when eating in. I said ,”forget the sauce” and on the way out I called them to show them I was putting their sauce on the meals; because of how rude and money hungry they are… sauce-stortion is extortion. Not a nice place, at all and terrible customer service. Hopefully sauce-gate is over now and not still common practice. No idea if the foods any good as it was cold after all the tumultuous fun…

Vivien Sarkany We have been there for nice tea and tasty cake. I strongly recommend this cosy and beautiful tea garden. The staff is lovely and we had a really good time there.

Lloyd Stevens Da Vinci’s It’s been six years since Craig took over the reins at Da Vinci’s in my hometown of Hornchurch and during this time he along with his wife have turned it back into a great family restaurant it once was. You will find the restaurant in the heart of town at the beginning of station lane. The food is Italian with all your favourite dishes including pizza , pasta , mains , fish , desserts and regular specials. We’ve been visiting Da Vinci’s consistently over his time in charge and are never disappointed with the food and the service. It’s a fabulous local restaurant and the prices on the menu reflect that which is why it’s not hard to see that they have so many local regulars. Da Vinci’s also hosts singers on Friday evening’s and themed music Saturday brunches to once again bring the community together. Craig is by himself in the kitchen but has an assistant on those many busy times. The front of house is led by Giovanni who couldn’t be more friendly and welcomes you with open arms. If anyone ever asks me for a restaurant recommendation I will always mention Da Vinci’s and the feedback I receive is nothing but positive. In the last five years restaurants have come and gone yet this fabulous Italian restaurant goes from strength to strength. Even during Covid he helped the local area by supplying pasta and pizza. You could also collect or have delivered food during those times. Da Vinci’s is not only a credit to Hornchurch but to the Essex dining scene itself. So yes I would highly recommend a visit and I for one will definitely keep on giving my support in the future. Our latest visit was on Saturday to celebrate our anniversary and Craig and Giovanni did not let us down. We enjoyed a fantastic lunch including the amazing dishes on the specials board all washed down with a lovely Sauvignon from the Anno Domini Vineyard. STARTER - Here we chose the Calamari and from the specials a Burrata with a tomato and orange salad. MAINS - My wife chose her favourite dish the Linguine Vongole while I loved the fabulous Mahi Mahi with spinach , creamy mash and a sun-dried tomato sauce that was absolutely delicious. DESSERT - After we enjoyed the Tiramisu and the Torte Della Nonna Craig kindly sent us the dessert from the specials a Carpaccio of Pineapple , lime and chilli syrup with a orange sorbet to perfectly end an amazing anniversary lunch. Thank You Craig and Giovanni for a fabulous way to celebrate our anniversary and look forward to seeing you again soon.
