Pintos - (Near Lambeth, london)

edmund price My first taste of west African food, the jollof was very nice, but personally I wish that it would be served with a separate side of yoghurt to balance out the spiciness. The spice was a bit of a surprise to me. Atmosphere was wonderful, reminds me of a pannier market sort of atmosphere, even struck up conversations with complete strangers, that was nice. For London it is cheap, about 14 quid a meal. Though that being said, in other parts of the UK you could get a good Sunday roast for £14, is it equal to me to a roast dinner? no, but I imagine that many west Africans in London could enjoy this taste of home made for them, without the effort I imagine it takes to do yourself. I suppose its worth trying at least once, because like me in my situation visiting the city from a rural backwater, it is worth seeing what the world has to offer

katie t Absolutely wonderful dinner. Exquisite flavour, marvellous value for money, stupendous portion size, A+ freshness, and really friendly staff. My partner and I had a brilliant time. We would strongly recommend!

Jeremy Irwin A bit rough and ready but easily my favourite Ethiopian place in London. Have been going for 6+ years since I moved to London. Still trek here for dinner even though I no longer live round the corner. Wonderful owners. Flavours, portions and quality are always consistently great.

Pizza Sofia Really good, great service from the guy at the counter, polite friendly and good to support a small local business, your money spent here well appreciated, Good people thanks

C-Reviews Pub is bright and light yet still feels traditional. I loved the Sunday menu, so many different and unique options on one sheet without flicking through a long menu. There was a dish to please everyone without any dish being boring, which is quite hard to achieved. Food was a 4/5, with some dishes slightly missing the mark - but overall, I’d love to return. The orange rosé was amazing - a must try drink! Lovely Sunday lunch experience, thank you!

kian nabi Avli is absolutely fantastic! Their meat platter was a masterpiece – a combination of 4 types of grilled meat; All juicy, flavorful and grilled to perfection. All skewers were marinated and would melt in the mouth with their soft texture and rich flavor. (Suitable for 3-4 persons) Spanakopita was fresh and tasty. The crust was crispy and the filling was perfectly balanced. Fried calamari was fresh and delicious as well, but I personally prefer tempura fried calamari. Tzatziki was out of this world. (It can be enjoyed most if one likes the taste of garlic.) On top of the incredible food, the service was warm and attentive. Interestingly, the restaurant is run by a greek family who do their best to create a memorable experience for the guests. Everything there was top-notch – Avli is definitely a 5 out of 5 experience!
