The Sichuan

➤ 14 City Road, EC1Y 2AA, London, United Kingdom

Carte • Asian • Salad • Chinese • Sichuan

---

"This is an exceptional restaurant that specializes in Sichuan cuisine. Contrary to many beliefs, this is not always spicy hot! We ordered a good variety of dishes and they were all absolutely fantastic. As we do not live in London, this place is on our priority list when we make the trip. The food is incredible, and over the past decade has actually made us come to London just for their unique dishes."

Joshua's Tavern

➤ 38 Leicester Square, London, United Kingdom

Carte • Pub • Drinks • French • Salads

"We loved it here! Was perfect after a busy day in London! Just off of Leicester sq Business! Welcoming was the best, the guy who welcomed us and showed us around just made us feel welcomed and happy, manager and staff were all nice and could tell they valued all their customers, small bites were perfect for after a long day, but also tasted amazing! The gin selection was something else and my partner tried their pale ale on draft, both our drinks worked well with the small bites, just could not recommend this enough, could not understand why it was so quite, this would be mobbed if it was in Glasgow but also worked in our favour to be able to get a drink and relax!"

Vasinikó Pizzeria

➤ 7-9 Burleigh St, London, United Kingdom

Carte • Wine • Pizza • Pasta • Italian

"I’m so disgusted by the behaviour at this restaurant. We had pre booked a table for 5:30pm and by 6:30pm they were pushing us to leave and gave us the bill before we asked for it. Keep in mind we still had half a bottle of wine to drink, we were looking forward to a relaxing evening and catching up with friends. Once we were forced to pay we were basically chased out because they wanted our table for another booking. When I raised this with the staff member, he got very defensive and followed me outside to tell me that all bookings were only for an hour slot and that I should check my booking because I was apparently in the wrong. I checked both my email and text message that I received from the restaurant and neither one of them stated it was only an hour slot. The male staff member proceeded to try to argue with me and honestly was the worst experience I’ve had with a restaurant. I work in the f&b industry and would never expect anyone I know to behave the way that this man did. Do not go to this restaurant unless you want to finish your food and drinks within 5 minutes. Disgusting behaviour from their team, I definitely won’t be back."

Naroon

➤ 60 Great Titchfield Street, London, United Kingdom

Carte • Coffee • Persian • Chicken • Breakfast

---

"I had a lovely experience at this restaurant and the food was delicious! It was my first time trying Persian cuisine and I found it to be very refined and mild, yet still full of flavor. The staff even brought out a cake when they heard it was my birthday. I would definitely return to this restaurant!"

Oi Vita Pizzeria

➤ 67 Newington Green Rd, London, N14QU, United Kingdom

Carte • Pizza • Italian • European • Mediterranean

"Oi Vita Pizzeria embodies the core values that have made Italian cuisine a beloved choice around the globe. Utilizing authentic and fresh ingredients, every dish showcases the rich regional flavors of Italy. With skill and care, the chefs create perfect doughs rooted in tradition from the area near Mount Vesuvius, now delivered right to your doorstep in London. They transform working-class favorites into gourmet experiences while honoring their humble beginnings. I highly recommend trying the mozzarella and aubergine pizza from the menu, topped with extra mozzarella."
