Le Bab Victoria - (Near Westminster, london)

ricky bennici We had a fantastic Sunday lunch at the Alma , started with the excellent scallops then moved on to the main event . The roast was perfect ! Jude our server was brilliant in explaining the menu and helping us pick the best roast for us . We had the pork belly which was great not too fatty , the rump and the sirloin . Also added the cauliflower cheese and the pigs in blankets . The portions were very generous, but it was certainly not quantity over quality. Cant wait to visit again to try some of the other bits on the menu.

PKS It was my first time here and it was very quiet as it’s newly opened but the atmosphere is really cosy and intimate. The music is a vibe and the food & cocktails were lovely. I’ll defo be coming again :)

The London Guru Really enjoyed my lunch at Farmer J near St James’s Park. Great service from start to finish, super friendly staff. The food is excellent: plenty of healthy, nutritious options that actually taste good and feel fresh. Portions are generous and the prices are very reasonable for central London quality. Great value overall. Only downside was the cleanliness in some areas. Tables were a bit cramped (typical for busy spots), but more noticeably the bathroom was dirty. Sink was overflowing/wet and needed attention. It felt a bit neglected compared to the otherwise solid experience. Still, the food and service make it worth a visit if you’re after wholesome, tasty meals in the area. I’ll definitely go back, just hope they tidy up the facilities a bit!

James Topping We’ve popped into this restaurant for dinner, on boxing Day. It was very quiet and we booked a table. This is a very friendly and family run restaurant, that has a authentic independent feel. The staff are very friendly and throughout the meal they looked very well. The menu has a good range of options, we decided to choose meze options both cold and hot. We were particularly pleased with the chicken livers and the spicy sausage. The red wine was delicious, they were two options which made it very easy. Overall, a lovely restaurant, with staff that are very willing to help. Looking forward to trying again.

Bisma T The food here is incredible and keeps my family coming back time and time again. The naan, chapli kebab and chicken karahi are a must. The service is always great and this visit we enjoyed complimentary kheer for dessert.

Ashley Goncalves Popped in on a Friday morning just outside Balham station. Quiet, plenty of seats at that time and quick service. Coffee was spot on and they do a loyalty card. Pastries were really good too. Worth a visit.
