AKHIL RAJ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Authentic Kerala experience! The food was absolutely delicious — full of traditional Kerala flavors and perfectly spiced. The service was warm, friendly, and made us feel right at home. The ambience captured the essence of Kerala beautifully, with a calm and welcoming atmosphere. A must-visit for anyone who loves authentic South Indian cuisine!

Henry What makes a good restaurant? Clearly food will feature somewhere on your list and in the case of The Waterside this takes the form of classic French cooking. Nothing is “deconstructed” or designed to surprise. You know exactly what you’re getting from the menu and if you’ve visited previously you probably even know what you’re going to order before you arrive. Nothing is intended to shock. Far too many restaurants at all levels feature a talented kitchen team let down by their front of house. From the moment you arrive here everyone knows what they are doing and wants to make your visit as enjoyable as they possibly can. They’re not trying to trip you up, you don’t have to be fluent in gastronomy or know anything about malolactic fermentation. The sommelier is there to help, not to test. No one is judging you although I’d be lying if said we didn’t people watch our fellow diners a little. You are family when dining at The Waterside, it’s not in any way stuffy or starched. That’s not to suggest service is casual, seamless would be my best description with teams assembling when required to reveal your next course before melting away again to leave you to your conversation. The Waterside is a happy place. My memory of the venue is that it’s a bit dated, the phrase “Chinese restaurant” was used as we drove there but things have quietly evolved. It’s actually quite smart these days. The bathrooms are modern and fresh, the soft furnishings crisp and comforting with a nod to the history of the venue. Let us not forget this is an institution woven into the fabric of British restaurant history.

Steve Copeland Came in on Wednesday evening 7th Jan. Food was very good, the fish and the batter were excellent. Service was also excellent, waitress happy to swap milk for lemon in my tea. Would definitely recommend.

Matt Weston Went here for a work lunch. It was superb. The people were awesome and the pizza was delicious. And the vibes were great, with a warm casual sociability.

Harriet Turnbull Outstanding Sunday lunch and first visit to Orion! Very impressive. The beef roast was SUPERB, delightful wine menu and the baked cheesecake was wonderful. Beautiful restaurant, loved the decor and yet somehow such a relaxed friendly atmosphere. Thomas, our waiter was charming and attentive, the host very professional and even met Alex manning the desert trolley. We live locally and attended with our young baby, so very welcoming. The team were also accommodating when we needed to move the booking as our baby wasn’t well. This is just the kind of place Wimbledon so desperately needs and will be a local institution before long. See you again soon :) x
