Thai House - (Near Barnet, london)

Daren Kenward A brand new Italian restaurant in East Barnet located opposite the Shell petrol station. We were warmly greeted as we walked in and did not have to wait long while our table was being prepared. Fortunately we reserved a table as the restaurant was busy. Decore is tastefully done with comfortable seating and a good choice of traditional (non Italian) music in the background with a great mix of tunes. The waitress we had was extremely attentive with nothing asked being to much and knew what was in a seafood dish when questioned about the ingredients. The menu choice is refined with a good choice. Food was very well presented, hot, freshly cooked to perfection and portion size big enough as the Pasta dishes are surprisingly deep. Parking is on the street or possible in the nearby Sainsburys carpark which is free but a maximum of 2 hours. I would highly recommend this restaurant which focuses on a quality experience you will not find in the usual Italian restaurants.

Andrea Charles I’m a regular customer at firedog Cockfosters for the reasons that the menu is varied and the food is consistently of high quality. The staff (Andrea, Nick and Seren) are always friendly, which creates a lovely ambience. Chrissy the barista is especially welcoming and makes a great coffee! X

PRIYANKA UPADHYAY ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5-Star Review We chose Asil Restaurant for our 20th anniversary dinner, and it turned out to be one of the most memorable dining experiences we’ve ever had. After a long, tiring day at work, we were looking forward to a relaxing evening—and Asil exceeded every expectation. From the moment we walked in, the ambiance was absolutely amazing—elegant, warm, and perfectly suited for a special occasion. The food was outstanding in every way: beautifully presented, full of flavor, and clearly prepared with great care and passion. Every dish we tried was delicious and left us wanting more. What truly made the evening extraordinary, however, was the hospitality of the hosts. Their attention to detail and genuine kindness touched our hearts. They surprised us with special music dedicated to our anniversary, which created such an emotional and joyful moment. To make it even more special, they brought us a beautiful anniversary cake, something we were not expecting at all. That thoughtful gesture made us feel truly celebrated and valued. Asil Restaurant doesn’t just serve food—it creates experiences and memories. The combination of exceptional cuisine, a beautiful atmosphere, and heartfelt hospitality makes this place truly special. I highly recommend Asil Restaurant to anyone looking for an unforgettable dining experience. If you haven’t been there yet, don’t wait—just go and enjoy the amazing food and outstanding hospitality. We will definitely be coming back again!

Maria Alejandra Hernandez It is my first time visiting this lovely restaurant. My friend had said wonders about it, specially about their grilled octopus, I have to say I’m super impressed! The food was delicious, the service absolutely magnificent, and the restaurant super clean and lovely. We even had a complementary drink from the owner. Super super pleased!

Jason Tye Really nice food, fresh and delicious. I particularly enjoy their selection of beef and chicken burgers. Their kebabs are very nice as well. Excellent service from the staff. So glad to be a loyal customer to this place! Keep up the excellent work!

isabel barbosa Pleasantly surprised how tasty the food was. Its been a long time since I had a homemade meal that tasted so delicious. It beat many gastro pubs in Barnet area that I had been. I had mixed kebab with rice. The rice was fluffy and very tasty. The meat was seasoned with spices that add an special flavour to it and made it very soft and succulent. I would highly recommend this small local cafe and definitely will come back again and again.
