Plaza 809 La caribeña - (Near Southwark, london)

Aubrey Harper Came with high expectations given reviews and was not disappointed. The mushroom skewers were fantastic, the smacked cucumber very refreshing, and the noodles deliciously chewy. Its not the cheapest spot in the area but very reasonable, highly recommend

Rimon Ahmed Back in August a work colleague said one lunchtime "boys let me take you to a place for some good lunch for the price of a meal deal". So we went to Falafel & Shawarma! It is a nice spacious simple looking shop, queue up on the right to order, then move over to the left to pay for and pickup up your order. There is long sitting wall benches on either side of the shop where you can sit in and eat, but when the shop is busy you will be sitting along side both queues. The staff were very friendly and professional. The gentleman who takes your order is always lively and having a laugh with customers as hes taking the orders and preparing the orders. Theyre always giving out samples of their side food items especially their roasted spice potatoes which are really nice. We each ordered their chicken shawarma wrap and their own made lemonade drink. The chicken filling tasted really good had that nice spiced marinated tase and the meat came out soft. They top the filling with a choice of garlic and/or chilli sauce which isnt all that spicy in all honesty but does give that nice taste to it all. The lemonade nicely compliments the chicken shawarma. We went again yesterday and this time I ordered their falafel wrap and that was equally as good! Also this time I ordered a portion of their 4 lamb sambusaks, which is like Indian samosas but made without the Indian spices. I liked them (being a bengali person) as they had the natural cooked lamb taste and had a slight taste of some cooking spices. For £4.50 the shawarma wraps they serve up interms of taste and how big it is, I have seen other places charge around £9! The side items like the Sambusak was £2.50 and again worth the price! Highly recommended place to go for lunch, you wont be disappointed!!

Ash Baigent You can’t beat these £5 pizzas! This is my local and I go here as often as I can. The pizzas are great, there’s not always a huge amount of protein on them but for a fiver you can’t complain. I’ve been getting into the “carbonara” recently which comes with a hash brown on top! Sometimes the dough is still a little soft in areas and when it’s busy there are long queues but worth it for a cheap tasty and filling dinner.

kamile varnagyte Highly recommend! Everything was really good from the staff to the food. Tried 3 different dishes and cannot fault a single one, everything on the menu looked so tasty if we ever back in the area will definitely be coming back. Such a warm and cosy environment, you would think this is a family run business. The reviews do not do this place justice.

Paul Smith Really good food and friendly staff and nice relaxed atmosphere. I will be going again and highly recommend others to try it out.

Alexandra Crabtree Popped in here for lunch and asked for an outside table. Giovanni was brilliant. Depsite the outisde area not being set up, he went out and cleared a table for us to use. Really went above and beyond. He also made sure we had everything we needed throughout our meal. Great experience :)
