Punch & Judy - (Near Westminster, london)

Patrick This was my first time trying Burmese food. Very highly recommend going to this restaurant. Burmese food, to me, is much more similar to Thai food than I thought. As Thai, I’m very familiar with the Thai cuisine, and many of the flavours of Burmese cuisine reminded me of it. There are certain types of meats and curries that are clearly influenced by India/Nepal, making this a very interesting cuisine. I most recommend the mutton curry - by far the best dish I’ve had, and I’ve tried a few dishes at this place. The second meal I would recommend is the Mohinga, which is a national dish and similar to a Malaysian Laksa + Vietnamese vermicelli noodles. Food gets delivered super quick ~5-10 minutes. Staff are very friendly.

Isabella Chulu I wanted to take a moment to recognize Salima for her outstanding service during my visit last week Tuesday At Gauchos Chancery Lane for a work lunch. Even though she mentioned she’s only been working here for about a month, her professionalism, attentiveness, and warm personality made it feel like she’d been part of the team for years. It’s rare to see someone so new already delivering 10/10 service you can tell she genuinely cares about her guests and represents your restaurant beautifully. You should be proud to have her on your team! She took amazing care of my friend and I. She had even remembered i mentioned saying it was my friends birthday and to our surprise she brought in a brownie and ice cream to celebrate. She had even remembered how picky we were about our food so knew you can’t go wrong with a brownie! I ask that the restaurant please forward on this message to Salima as she deserves this praise. She made our whole experience feel special. Service like that really stands out, you’ve got a real gem on your team!

Amelia Bowles Just visited Oorja and was really impressed. The food is full of bold, fresh flavours, and the menu has some really thoughtful twists without trying too hard. The staff were genuinely warm and welcoming, and the whole place has a relaxed, modern feel. A great spot for a casual dinner or a pre-theatre meal — I’ll definitely be going back.

Andy Ikoyi has such a distinguished reputation it can only really disappoint. Im pleased to say it didnt. Ours was a menu of delicious little taste bombs with one slightly more substantial dish featuring their smoked jollof (dont get excited Ghanians, its not real jollof but it is delicious anyway). As hoped, the food was the star of the show and each course really did impress with the flavours, textures and presentation. I found the desserts werent as good as the starters and mains but thats probably more to do with my palate preferences than anything else. From reviews Id read I was expecting an African themed menu which isnt really the case, its more of a fusion menu with inspiration from all over (including the golden continent). The restaurant itself is a wonderfully designed space with exceptional ambience, it had atmosphere and moody charm without too much buzz or pretentiousness which is hard to achieve. The staff were also great; professional, warm and attentive without being over the top. It is madly expensive but if fine dining is your thing, its money well spent.

Brenda Mwangi We were a party of 8, had a lovely private table and an amazing waitress, Charlotte! She was friendly, funny & great at her job! I had the salmon salad, - it was filling

Bobby Valentine An exceptional New Year’s Day dinner at Rules. The food was outstanding from start to finish — classic British dishes done perfectly and full of flavor. Every course felt thoughtful and true to the restaurant’s long history, and I genuinely loved my meal. A special mention to Katerina, our waitress, who was warm, attentive, and professional without ever being intrusive. Her service really elevated the entire experience and made the evening feel relaxed and special. Rules continues to be one of those rare places that delivers on history, atmosphere, and quality every single time. We’ll absolutely be back.
