The Garden Cafe - (Near Southwark, london)

Elena Mazilu Had a really lovely experience at Chino Latino in London. The food was delicious and very well made. Our waiter, Konstantinos, was professional, attentive, and made us feel welcome throughout the evening. The food arrived in good time, and the atmosphere was amazing — especially with the live music, which made the whole experience even more enjoyable. I’d definitely recommend it and would happily come back again!

Eren Erol This is a nice buffet located at the surrey quays shopping area. You can find food and drink options of a great range, and good quality. Parking is free and also there are some spaces tables/benches available to sit as well.

A Mor The food is absolutely amazing, and the service from all three staff members was truly exceptional. The fish and chips have never tasted this good anywhere else — the chips were great too! The lamb kebab is hands down the best we’ve had in both London and Scotland. This is my second visit in a row, and I’ll definitely be coming back again and again.

SD 4.5/5 Akara has been on my list for about a year so I was so excited to go and try it out. It really did live up to the hype! Everything I tasted was delicious and what elevated the experience was getting to try so many new flavour combinations. I haven’t had a meal as intriguing as this in a long time. The service was also great, our waitress was so friendly and able to help us decide what we wanted to order. We had the prawn Akara which came with a rich spicy Senegalese sauce that paired beautifully together. We also had the lamb dibi (if you love lamb this is a must try), beef yaji, Lagos chicken, grilled pork and efik rice. The pork was so tender and with the yam sauce, I was fighting myself to slow down and enjoy the dish properly. The rice was moist and flavourful, if you’re hungry I would recommend getting a portion each. We had the warm plantain cake for dessert that tasted like a lighter sticker toffee pudding. I only wish the portion was bigger, it was gone too quickly My only negative points would be it was cold in the restaurant! I was admittedly in a backless dress so bring a cardigan if you’re planning to dress up. I also found it a little noisy due to the chatter reverberating off of the high ceiling. Other than that, I’ll definitely be back in the future to try the other dishes.

Tuyen Hong-Jones I used to visit quite often but had to stop for a while as I found the food quality had gone downhill. I went back for dinner tonight with a friend and I’m happy that I could feel the cooking passion again. The food was fresh and flavourful, the decor is warm and welcoming. My friend loved what he had. Service could be a touch better.
