Ev Restaurant - (Near Southwark, South East)

5 /5 Andrew Reeves-Hall: Delicious food served by friendly attentive helpful staff in a splendidly designed railway arch space all for a fair price. The entrance is through a garden of large potted plants that is ever so welcoming in this central London venue. Easy walking distance from Thames, tube and Waterloo station. Recommended.

2 /5 K Lau: A spacious restaurant with a decent bar area, somewhat hidden between residential buildings and arches. I’ve been here a few times, and unfortunately each visit has been mediocre. Food: consistently bland, which is a real shame given the potential of the place. Service: often feels inattentive. During our last visit, they misheard our request for a separate VAT receipt for one of our friends. Even though several members of our group heard the request which was repeated a couple of times, it still wasn’t handled properly. Overall, a place with potential, but disappointing execution so far.

4 /5 Mohammed Nurul Haque: "Nice Turkish place with lovely decor and a cozy vibe. The lunch set menu is great value with big portions and tasty food. The menu is small but well picked. Self-service, and the staff were really friendly and helpful!"

1 /5 Zula Rabikowska: I often eat meals alone due to the nature of my job, and I find sometimes being a party of one impacts service. I ordered a veggie moussaka and was very disappointed. For £25 per main dish at lunch I expected something decent. I received a small tasteless plate of luke warm food. Nobody came to take an order for a drink and I was at the restaurant for a while. The food arrived within 5mjn of my order and I asked the waiter if the food was made in the microwave which he said that it was. I was starving and finished my portion and raised my disappointment with two different staff members who made zero effort to rectify the situation. Very disappointed, would not recommend, there are other options for nice food and better service in the area. I will head to a Pret to get a sandwich as this lunch left me hungry.

5 /5 John Hartley: This place is incredible. You won’t find better meze in London - extremely fresh, unbelievably tasty and very well priced. The lentil soup is top level too. They are always very generous with portion size and include delicious fresh baked bread with your order. The garden outside is gorgeous in Spring and Summer, the inside has a great ambience and there’s free internet in case you need it. A perfect spot to meet friends, grab a quick lunch or get on with some work. Tucked away south london secret. Amazing.
