Dianne Cooper Our second visit to Hokkaido confirmed its status as an exceptional Japanese restaurant. Initially, we enjoyed an à la carte meal from one of the standard tables, offering a fantastic view of the chefs cooking station. Every dish we selected was incredibly delicious, and the service was faultless. So impressed, we decided to return just a few days later for the chefs table experience. It was a quiet, early Tuesday night, creating an intimate setting. I chose the meat set menu, while my husband went for the blackened cod – we happily shared, finding each and every dish to be divine and utterly mouth-watering. Seriously, its impossible to recommend just one; they were all truly mind-blowing! A standout detail is that the chef meticulously prepares all his own sauces. The delightful owner, incredibly knowledgeable, took the time to explain each dish, its ingredients, and its preparation, adding another layer to our appreciation. The chefs skill was captivating, turning our meal into a true culinary performance – a night at the theatre in itself. The warm sake was the perfect accompaniment. Having spent time in Japan, I can confidently say this is the finest Japanese food I have ever tasted.

Angel Wong Delicious. Fast service, good price! Happy customer!

Kristina Gudeikiene Lydia Turkish Restaurant is a lovely place with very nice food. Everything we tried was fresh and tasty. I’d also like to mention Melisa, a Lithuanian girl working there — she is very kind, friendly, and works really hard. Her service made our experience even better. Highly recommended!

REG Voluez vous Parlez avec moi, Ce soir? Goes the PG version of Lady Marmalade - the song popularised by Christina Aguilera et als 2001 cover for Baz Luhrmanns Moulin Rouge. This has zero relevance to Parlez, the bar and restaurant adjacent to Brockley overground station, I just liked the idea of it. Parlez (bar and restaurant) is a great bar and restaurant and a lovely place to stop by for drinks, food and more if you are in the area. Service is quick and friendly. We ordered the Sharing Mezze thing for 2 opting for the Chicken and Lamb. Both of these were delicious as were the other aspects of the meal (bread, olives, various dips). Good range of drinks and the toilets were nicely decorated, clean and flushed well when prompted. I would come back here for food, drinks and more. They sometimes show the football on a big screen when its important (World cup etc).

Stephen Jon Macdonald This place is so good!!. Eren is a great chef that makes great quality food and priced well. My daughter loves ALL the pancakes, I personally love the Jerk chicken, all freshly cooked. It’s my go-to!
