Casa Crunchy - (Near Lambeth, london)

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!

Tom Goodwin What a lovely cafe. Best Georgian food and wine. We had a lovely 3rd party here and keep coming back for coffee and homemade cakes

Alissa Fox What a fantastic beer garden! So many restaurants to choose from which makes it enjoyable for all and then you all come together with your trays and eat at your table. The food was great, as were the desserts. We went for an early dinner, but I would imagine this place would be a great place to hang out in the evening, too.

Dylan Archer I have nothing but good words to say about this place. I ordered 4 days in a row to my work and in that time I tried 3 stand out dishes: The Lasagna, Gnocchi alla Matteo, and the Tortelloni Salsiccia and Ricotta. (Really everything is good). The desserts are great too but Id say the creme brulee is the best, even though I usually get tiramisu which is a favourite of mine anywhere I go, the creme brulee is done so well that it has to be my favourite at this place. If you like Italian cuisine then youre in luck, this is the place for you.

Maria Komba As regulars and steak lovers my boyfriend and can easily say its hands down the best steak in London, above Hawksmoor Blacklock and all others. Dani, Belén, Tanesha and of course the rest of the staff are always so welcoming and warm. The steak is always perfectly cooked and melts in your mouth, the chef is truly unrivalled. Also appreciate that the Milanese from the lunch menu has finally made it to the dinner menu, it was such a treat on our recent visit! Triple cooked chips never fail nor the veg. The La Linda pairs amazingly with the meats, and if you have room for something extra do not skip the churro and ice cream and the dessert wine. Always a pleasure :)

Alicia Nunes We were really impressed with the Courtyard Restaurant. From the moment you arrive, the whole setting is beautiful driving to the garden centre past open fields, into a very well-presented space with a lovely butchery department at the entrance. You then walk through a large brick archway with impressive historic gates, which leads you into the Courtyard Restaurant itself. We were greeted straight away by a member of staff, which instantly makes a difference, and the level of service throughout was excellent. We chose the Christmas dinner, which was fantastic value for money at just £18 far more affordable than many comparable places, and the quality didn’t disappoint. Overall, we had a very positive experience and would happily return. There’s also a café on site which we didn’t visit this time, but it looks beautiful from the outside, surrounded by plants and greenery. Highly recommended.
