Bar des Prés - (Near Westminster, South East)

Jenifaaa Azteca Battersea delivered an unforgettable dining experience from start to finish. Firstly, a special mention to Sitara, who was incredibly accommodating with our reservation. Her prompt, thoughtful responses made everything effortless before we even arrived. Walking in and watching the curtains open felt like a reveal warm, intimate, and beautifully curated. The décor is rich and cosy, with every corner offering a new visual delight. The drums, the music, the host, the entire atmosphere was effortlessly boujee. Being a family-run restaurant truly sets this place apart. The owner, his son, and nephew made us feel genuinely welcomed and celebrated. The attention, the banter, and the warmth elevated the entire experience, honestly, it made the food taste even better. To top it all off, complimentary glasses of wine was opened for our special occasion, pairing perfectly with the Tomahawk steak, while the ceviches… muah, muah, muah, exceptional. From the impeccable dining experience to the outstanding attention to detail, this was luxury hospitality done right. Top marks across the board.

Nabila Rafique Really lovely place, stately room, catering staff very friendly and attentive and the food was fabulous .

Farzaneh Motamedi I had a wonderful experience at Molana Restaurant. The atmosphere is warm, cozy, and welcoming. The food is full of authentic Persian flavours — the kebabs were juicy and perfectly seasoned, and the rice was fluffy and fragrant. The starters were also incredibly fresh, and everything tasted homemade. The portions are generous and the prices are very reasonable for the quality you get. If you’re looking for delicious, authentic Persian food in a friendly setting, Molana is an excellent choice. Highly recommended!

Karen Looker Wonderful meal, couldn’t fault it. Great value for where we were. We went on a rainy evening so it wasn’t too busy but they have a lovely covered area outside and a table call system if needed. The al forno pasta dishes were lovely and pizza was excellent, we had a sourdough base, delicious! The review on price includes wine and again was one of the best prices we’ve seen! Would absolutely recommend.

Raj Jas Wow! Finding this in Balham was surprising... lovely outdoor seating, balcony and lots of indoor too. The outdoor seating felt cosy and away from the busy life around as it had tastefully been decorated with plants. The service was so friendly and so much choice of drinks. Food was delicious. I had the beetroot salad with prawns and my friend had the full English at 1pm! Great place to hire out too as there was 2 upper floors to do so.

ricky bennici We had a fantastic Sunday lunch at the Alma , started with the excellent scallops then moved on to the main event . The roast was perfect ! Jude our server was brilliant in explaining the menu and helping us pick the best roast for us . We had the pork belly which was great not too fatty , the rump and the sirloin . Also added the cauliflower cheese and the pigs in blankets . The portions were very generous, but it was certainly not quantity over quality. Cant wait to visit again to try some of the other bits on the menu.
