OKAN - (Near Southwark, london)

Y Update: The food is still reasonably priced in August 2023. Delicious food, good price, nice and friendly staff! My favourite dishes are: the pho noodle soup with rare beef, the stir fried noodles with prawns or oyster mushrooms & tofu, the rice box with garlic pork and the chicken curry but all the others are tasty too. You can ask for no coriander or chili if you dont like them.

J Tashi “TJ” I stumbled upon Mimi’s Kitchen Eat-In and Takeaway for a late lunch, and I’m so glad I did. The food selection was impressive—fresh, well displayed, and ready to go. I had the Jollof rice (absolutely divine) and the “fish platter”, which was perfectly seasoned and sweet, tender plantain. I also tried a bit of my friend’s moinmoin and it was DELICIOUS. (I literally want it right now.) The customer service was lovely too—the server was kind & mindful when my friend asked if the Jollof and moinmoin had been cooked with any meat, as she’s veggie. It’s always appreciated when staff are considerate about dietary requirements. If I had one small suggestion, it would be to make the drink options and their prices a little easier to view—it would make adding a drink to your meal a bit more effortless. But honestly, that’s the only (tiny) thing. All in all, a perfect lunch find!

Shaila Rahman My daughter would give infinity stars if she could. This is an excellent restaurant.. The food is delicious, generous portions and reasonable prices. A large portion of fries was £3.50. Amazing value. We had late lunch at the venue, the decor is good and very clean including bathrooms. They have a sink to wash hands outside the bathroom too.

Emel Ozpullukcu Levante didnt disappoint us again; everything was so fresh and perfect! The staff was friendly. Weve made an appointment with our friends to go again soon.

Johannes Schwinge My favourite restaurant in London. The menu is extremely creative and changed a lot - so even though I visited multiple times I always got to try new and exciting dishes. Especially their fish and seafood based dishes are exceptional! Staff is very welcoming and the service is superb. Also for this quality of cuisine it’s good value for London-standards! I’ll definetely keep visiting :)

Root Less Been meaning to try this since I first spotted it some months ago: I shouldnt have dithered, its a delight! Firstly the most charming, kind and helpful family hosts you could imagine who clearly genuinely care so much about making sure you are happy. And with this food, who wouldnt be happy? Started with possibly the best empanadas I have ever tasted (and my waistline testifies that I have worked through very many, including in Latin America): melting flaky pastry enclosing soft potato and tasty beef brisket accompanied by a delicious chimichurri. I chose the Ecuadorian ceviche which was not on the menu but suggested by the waiter. It consisted of prawns in a zingy fresh broth with lime juice, tomato, thinly sliced onions accompanied by plaintain chips and popcorn. Some habanero hot sauce added some heat and I cleaned the ample dish. I enjoyed this with a lovely fresh mango and milk smoothie. And the delight didnt finish with the food - menu prices are very reasonable but the Ecuadorian ceviche turned out to be £5 cheaper than the Peruvian one: I would have happily paid the £20 on the menu but they insisted on charging only £15. What lovely people making food full of love, albeit in fairly plain surroundings but I cant wait to go back and continue working my way through the entire menu.
