Cocotte South Kensington in Kensington and Chelsea - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Rispetto ai prezzi assurdi di Londra ha dei buoni prezzi. Il pollo era buonissimo e j contorni pure. Siamo stati davvero bene

You get quite a lot of chicken, which is tasty and tender, and the side of potatoes is enough to share between two. Chicken is served skin on but easily removed if you don't eat skin. The dish is simply served, service is pleasant in a small space. 12.5 % service charge is high.

Lovely. 10/10, great staff, food and portions.

£5 for a 330ml bottle. Swipe charged me 20% service without asking or prompting. Avoid.

Trendy little restaurant in south Kensington that served up some delicious Mediterranean cuisine. The hummus and stuffed vine leaves were excellent starters, very fresh and flavorful. The chicken couscous was amazing, the chicken was so moist and the flavor of the couscous was very authentic. Would definitely recommend!

I rarely leave reviews. In a neighbourhood riddled with multi-millionaires, their price points don’t reflect this. Comparatively cheap, family owned and superb couscous served soul bowl style with broth. Several patrons looked like regulars. Thanks for a great meal.

I've been meaning to try out this restaurant so after visiting the V&A, we finally had lunch here. It's a good spot close to the tube and museums and the prices are reasonable for this neck of the woods. I ordered the quarter chicken which comes with 2 sides- the kale and the fries which was £16. The chicken was succulent and tasty, I even ate all the skin which I never do! The kale was a healthy choice to counter balance the fries. I could easily had eaten more. I think the next time im here, ill order a half chicken as a quarter wasnt enough for me! There's not many rotisserie chicken restaurants around which is a shame so if you love rotisserie then this one will be right up your street.

Beautiful place, lovely ambiance, great food

We had dinner at Eli’s, the food is beautifully made, friendly service and great atmosphere! The chicken, the lamb couscous was amazing, the chicken liver is to die for! Everything was really good! Definitely recommend!

Great good, lovely atmosphere and very friendly employees

Attended eli's restaurant and spoke with the owner requesting for my young daughter to use their toilet. I must add that the establishment was empty and had no customers. The owner refused our request, and there should be some consideration when it comes to young children needing to use the toilet.

Fresh and flavorful meal. Every dish we had was delicious. Falafel, hummus and chicken couscous.

Great delicious food, atmosphere and service. Would highly recommend and I will be visiting again.

Great food and atmosphere, but bad service. We didn’t get our drinks nearly an hour after ordering, and the restaurant wasn’t that busy. All the food was delicious.

We ate very, very well. Two or three of us shared cold and hot mezze, it was excellent and very filling! I highly recommend !!! Impeccable service.

I’m a fan!! The owners are lovely, the food is good. We will be back!

Delicious food and great service. The chicken is sky high and recommended. It’s a family restaurant and a peaceful atmosphere.

Amazing service and amazing food. We stumbled upon this place by accident but the experience could not have been better. Such friendly staff and just an overall fantastic experience.

We ate here after spending the morning visiting museums. A very quiet, beautiful and pleasant place. The food was delicious. I totally recommend it!!

This is a gem of a restaurant in the heart of Kensington. The owner Nida and her husband cook and serve beautiful French/Lebanese cuisine. The rotisserie chicken is fantastic. So is the potato gratin and the beans. For starters we had the babaganoush and the chicken liver. Both were really tasty. Total bill plus green tea afterwards was £59 including service. So great value for Kensington considering the quality and atmosphere. Highly recommend!

We had a genuinely lovely evening - a really cosy and calm atmosphere, spectacularly tasty food (between us we sampled five different mains and six mezze - all great) and friendly service. A very special evening (even the crockery is pretty gorgeous!)... We will definitely be back.

My favourite restaurant ever! The food is amazing and customer service by Nida and Hasan is incredible. Highly recommended!

Very pleasantly surprised by the discovery of this place We ate really well there (3 different dishes and all very delicious) Perfect value for money

This place deserves five stars really its service is special and its food is very delicious I love this place and its prices are reasonable

At first I didn’t notice your establishment, I walked by and didn’t leave any attention. Just recently I managed to visit your establishment, since I didn’t eat at home, at first it seemed that the service was so bad Too good, the employees are polite and sociable, and in general the establishment is beautiful and atmospheric, but besides, the food is very tasty. Honestly, there is a special taste) different from others like it In other matters, I began to visit this establishment very often, sometimes even more than one, I recommend it to everyone, do not pass by. I'm sure you'll like it as much as we do, but you should try it first, and then You yourself will understand what I was talking about. Good luck to everyone and have a nice day, and thank you for the good service and quality and delicious food!!! Maybe we’ll even meet there, by the way, if I’m not mistaken, they do take-out food there too, which is very convenient in some cases, but it’s still interesting and it’s very interesting to sit in the establishment itself.

A very nice restaurant in South Ken.We got here on the recommendation of friends who also have limited opportunities.Moreover, the prices were surprisingly reasonable, considering the quality and location. Sending best wishes to the owners we'll definitely be returning for more!I enthusiastically endorse this establishment as one of South Kensington's premier dining destinations, if not the finestThe presentation of the food was as attractive as the taste was delicious.The rotisserie chicken melted in our mouths, and the royal couscous provided a delightful amalgamation of tantalizing flavors and textures.Thank you for remembering people like us.

This is my personal experience only. I went with a friend today, for the first time but we booked it online. I ordered cous cous with sweet potato chips. I love the sweet potato chips and order them whenever a restaurant offers them. But I always order it without salt due to my medical condition.But it was very good i really liked it.And the atmosphere was great keep it up keep up the good work thanks.

A great place, we recently went on a date with a girl, she was satisfied) which means I am too. To all those who are thinking where to take their passia! Definitely a great place

Thank you very much for your wonderful service, thanks to your service and restaurant I had a great meal, even my family is very happy about your restaurant and the way you cook, thank you.

The atmosphere was cozy and inviting, with dim lighting and soft music playing in the background. The service was top-notch, with our server being attentive and knowledgeable about the menu. The food itself was absolutely delicious. I tried the signature dish, Eli's special steak, and it was cooked to perfection. The flavors were bold and well-balanced, leaving me wanting more. In addition to the amazing food, the drink selection was impressive as well. I tried a few of their craft cocktails and each one was expertly crafted and delicious. Overall, I highly recommend Eli's to anyone looking for a memorable dining experience.

Absolutely thrilled to have stumbled upon this enchanting oasis managed by a delightful couple who curated an exquisite array of Cold and Hot Mezze. Indulging in their Hot & Cold Mezze Platter, accompanied by a tantalizing order of Chicken Liver sautéed in garlic, lemon juice, and pomegranate molasses, was an absolute delight. Every bite felt like a symphony for my taste buds, as they danced with joy over the vibrant flavors of the Mezze and the succulent combination of the liver with the zesty lemon and rich molasses. This hidden gem is a culinary must-visit, and I am already eagerly anticipating my next excursion to explore their tantalizing main dishes, including the tempting Couscous and the aromatic Rotisserie Chicken slowly roasting on the skewers.

Nestled in a charming setting, this hidden gem is a delightful fusion of flavors and warmth. Offering a diverse menu, from hearty cassoulet to tantalizing mezze, the culinary journey here is a true delight. Picture-perfect presentation accompanies each dish, leaving a lasting impression. The cassoulet, enveloped in a buttery Yorkshire pudding crust, boasted a delightful smoky essence that lingered on the palate. The unexpected burst of color and flavor from the mixed side salad elevated the experience. Equally enticing was the mezze platter, a harmonious medley of hot and cold delicacies, accompanied by succulent chicken liver sautéed to perfection. Each bite felt like a celebration, with flavors dancing in harmony. This enchanting nest, lovingly run by a husband and wife duo, promises an unforgettable dining experience. Whether savoring the aroma of rotisserie chicken or indulging in couscous, every visit unveils a new culinary adventure. An oasis of culinary excellence, this is a destination worth revisiting time and again.

Lovely meal in a lovely setting. The presentation of the food was as attractive as the taste was delicious. There were several vegetarian options and plenty of specials to choose from. I had the cassoulet and it had a delicious smokey taste and was in a Yorkshire pudding crust that tasted as buttery & flaky as a croissant. Was extra surprised by the mixed side salad on the plate--extra colorful and tasty! Unique and worth making a stop there!

Wonderful food, Great service and a lovely atmosphere. My favorite meal in London.

Delicious couscous, different from traditional Moroccan, I recommend!

Prices don’t seem to be justified either for quality or quantity. Chicken was served without any seasoning at all, and the vegetarian couscous was absolutely bland, lacking even salt. But the place cozy and has nice decor.

We enjoyed this cheerful family-run Levant-style restaurant. Looking for a light meal we shared three cold mezze and hot chicken couscous. Lovely, smokey baba ghanoush, good stuffed vine leaves and houmous. The chicken had a tagine feel to it, with braised cabbage and carrots, subtly flavoured. We are everything and loved it. Sensible prices, discrete service, easy online booking with quick confirmation. Will go again when visiting the museums.

This is a lovely relaxed restaurant with the best freshly roast chicken and lovely salads. The service is friendly and professional, the atmosphere is busy and lively, I highly recommend this place for a great lunch.

What a find. Great ambiance, service and dishes: hot and cold. We would definitely come again.

Excellent food and excellent service

Amazing place, the owners were really lovely and the food is really good for the price. Would recommend to anyone looking for a quiet, cozy place to hang out!

I had the pleasure of eating at Eli’s last night. Although me and my friend arrived quite late, we managed to try alot of the food and I cannot explain how delicious it was. The service was amazing, thank you Nida (I hope I am spelling it correctly) you and your husband were a pleasure to meet. The hospitality was amazing, you definitely will be seeing us again.

Es menja molt bé, a bon preu i el lloc és un encant. Té opcions veganes. Els cambrers són una mica callats però s'hi està molt a gust.

This is a very nice, family run mediterranean/middle-eastern restaurant - all of the food was very good, only complaint is chicken was not free range - good choice, reasonable value

Excelente, de lo mejor que hemos encontrado en Londres.

Exceptional food and fair value. Top find.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Eli's, and I must say it was an exceptional experience from start to finish. The moment I walked in, the warm and inviting atmosphere immediately set the tone for a delightful evening. The menu offered a diverse range of dishes, each sounding more tempting than the last. I decided to try Eli’s Royal Couscous and Tarte aux pommes as a dessert and it surpassed all expectations. The flavors were exquisite, and the presentation was a work of art. It's evident that Nida is passionate about her craft. Equally impressive was the attentive and friendly customer service from both owners Nida and Hasan. They went above and beyond to ensure every detail of our dining experience was perfect. They were knowledgeable about the menu, offering insightful recommendations and catering to any dietary preferences. What truly stood out was the genuine commitment to customer satisfaction.

Great little restaurant in the heart of SK. Not a lot of choices but so far anything we tried was great , and the prices are decent.

Nothing will describe the lovely food the test is awesome, nice family atmosphere, everything clean and charming rare to find a restaurant like that nowadays 👍

Le meilleur couscous que nous avons mangé jusqu’à maintenant. Propriétaire sympathique. Ambiance chaleureuse

Everything we had here was fantastic, but the couscous was absolutely transcendent. I have never had before, nor do I expect to ever have again, such good couscous.

Excellent food, lovely atmosphere, friendly staff, we will be back soon.

Great food, lovely staff and an amazing ambiance.A+++++

Excellent food, great hospitality highly recommanded.

Elis Restaurant is a culinary gem. Impeccable service, exquisite dishes, and a charming ambiance make it a must-visit for any food enthusiast. Don't miss their delectable desserts!

Food was simple no fuss fare that was simply delicious.

Ever so happy we stumbled on this magnificent nest run by Husband & Wife who served a magnificent variety of Cold and Hot Mezze. I couldn't resist the urge to order their Hot & Cold Mezze Platter along with a single order of: Chicken Liver, sauteed in garlic, lemon juice and pomegranate molasses. I had a feast, my taste buds felt they had been invited to a glamorous wedding as they couldn't stop dancing with delight with every bite I took be it from the Mezze or mixed with the liver along with the zest of the lemon or the molasses. This nest is a must and I can't wait to visit again and try their main dishes be it Couscous or Rotisserie Chicken which looked and smelled scrumptious while they slowly rotated roasting on the skewers.

Absolutely lovely place and staff.

Great meal, only surpassed by the wonderful hospitality.

Best Mezze in the area. Mains can be improved.

바바 가니쉬? 꼭 드시고 쿠스쿠스도 꼭 드세요. 약간 상큼한 신맛 좋아하시면 입맛에 무조건 맞습니다. 진짜 강추 👍👍👍👍 유럽 여행 중 손에 꼽게 맛있는 집이었어요. 치킨은 양이 꽤 많아요. 그거 감안하고 시키세요.

Turned us down for drinks and small plates just because we had ice cream. Rude bar man.

We are frequent customers and really enjoy the Mediterranean cuisine. The owners are exceptionally nice Would recommend the food, ambiance and great that there is outdoor space.

Delicious food and friendly service - highly recommend the Cous Cous and babaganoush!

The restaurant is 5 minutes away from our hotel, we have tried the couscous royal and few other dishes. I would say flavors were good but nothing special! The grilled halloumi you can feel the quality of cheese, chicken burger corn fed average chicken taste, beetroot salad could be better. Finally the service was great and the gentleman greet us straight away from the door!

Very good mediterenian food. Lots of choice, even a picky five year old found something tasty to eat. The service was excellent and I enjoyed the music and the decor. The owner, who we got talking to was very nice and friendly!

A lovely restaurant, great atmosphere and absolutely delicious food! Thank you 😊

Lovely relaxed atmosphere and the food was beautiful.

This is my personal experience only. I went with a friend today, for the first time but we booked it online. I ordered cous cous with sweet potato chips. I love the sweet potato chips and order them whenever a restaurant offers them. But I always order it without salt due to my medical condition. The cous cous was ok, but the chips definitely have salt on it. It is also very soggy. I called the lady who took the order over. We were actually thinking of ordering another fresh portion and paying for it. The first thing she says was "I didn't put any salt on it". But someone did! It is salty. I was very adamant that it was salty. All she did was repeat the same sentence. We couldn't be bothered to argue with someone who has no customer service training. Lady, you didn't add salt doesn't mean the chips are salty. Shame on you. My friend tried to have it but couldn't finish. She has no issue with salt but she said the chips were soft and stale.

Excellent reasonably priced food and great service in a very nice atmosphere. Booked for a large group and it was perfect. Definitely recommend this place!

Gorgeous and cozy local restaurant, amazing delicious food and friendly and professional staff .Wines are outstanding, I thoroughly enjoyed my experience with you.!! Nora Pascual

Tolles mediterranes Restaurant mit guter Auswahl. Ich kann das Baba Ganoush absolut empfehlen als Vorspeise. Geschmacklich einfach klasse. Auch die gefüllten Weinblätter waren gut. Dazu hatte ich Couscous mit Gemüse. Im Gericht waren Rosinen, das war nicht ganz nach meinem Geschmack aber das Gericht war dennoch sehr gut. Dazu ein Glas Rosé und das Mittagessen ist komplett. Auch der Service bei Eli‘s war super. Freundlich und zuvorkommend. Ein tolles Erlebnis.

yummy food, friendly staff, great service.

We visited Eli’s today for the first time and we already decided that it will be our couscous place in London from now on, extraordinarily delicious, we’ll be coming back! On top of this, the owner is very lovely, cozy place and fair price. V and M

Ridiculous waiting time for food.

Very good food, the owners are great hosts. Highly recommend.

Popped in to inquire about a table and was greeted by an incredibly rude waiter who aggressively said they had no room. I was disappointed as my family and I love Mediterranean cuisine and had heard good things. Perhaps some people skills or customer service training would help as due to this I don't think I'll be back any time soon. Appalled.

Booked a table, but it was closed when we arrived. Spent our time for nothing

Supermysig liten restaurang, jättegod mat. Vi kan verkligen rekommendera den!

A lovely evening in a warm and inviting location. Dinner was excellent. Wishing the owners all my best for continued success. Highly recommend when visiting in South Kensington.

A beautiful place. We went there as a group of 7 people. Friendly staff, very fast and nice service. I liked all the starters specifically the chicken liver. My main was half a chicken! Liked it but was a bit dry

The food was excellent, the service was even better. The ambiance was very comfortable. Felt like a home cooked meal. The chicken and gravy is the best we’ve had, the mashed potatoes and salads are wonderful too.

אוכל ים תיכוני מצויין! קוסקוס אלג'יראי אליפות, אוכל ביתי טרי וטעים. ממש בית הרחק מהבית. הבעלים מקסימים והמסעדה הקטנה רגועה ושלווה עם עיצוב קסום ומוזיקה רגועה. אם אתם באיזור South Kensington, או במוזיאונים, עשו לעצמכם טובה ורוצו לאכול ארוחה טריה, טעימה וביתית ❤️

Great find within a stones through of the museums where we had been all day, plus close to the open car park which wasn't expensive either considering where you are.

This restaurant is a gem. Superb service from the owner delicious food cooked and presented beautifully by Mrs Eli. We were a small group and were so well looked after. Very handy for the V&A. This restaurant is a delight.

Popped in for early dinner for the poussin. Didn't have that for us, however, the start of hummous, filled vines etc and half chicken main with gravy was delicious. We were greeted and seated immediately and were treated very well. Lovely place.

A small restaurant with an original menu & quieter than usual music. I loved it all, especially being able to hear my friends, which is a rare pleasure these days

Atmosphere, incredible delicate authentic french chicken dishes and great service. Update: Save us a table. We are coming back to London May 21, 2023. 🙂

Stumbled upon Eli’s during a recent stay in South Kensington and loved the food. The chicken livers were the best I’ve ever had - my favorite food - so that is saying a lot. Service was friendly and the food was delicious. Would definitely recommend.

Gorgeous small local restaurant, delicious hearty food and friendly and professional staff (I think they were a family). Thank you for accommodating us (family of 3 including a 2 yo) on a Saturday night and despite not having booked a table in advance! We thoroughly enjoyed our experience with you. My top fave dish was the chicken liver with freshly baked pita bread. Wine choices were also fab.

Refreshing and delicious and definitely not your typical restaurant. The rotisserie chicken was soft and moist and the gravy was delicious. A very good light meal!

Très bon restaurant, un des meilleur qui nous ayons fait à Londres dans le quartier très sympa de South Kensington. Mention spécial pour le couscous et le demi poulet avec sa succulant sauce. Le rapport qualité prix est vraiment excellent !

Excelente comida súper casera y previo muy razonable para Londres. Pollo al apuesto súper delicioso y abundante. Promedio con bebida 15 libras por persona. Vale la pena conocerlo y volver

Excellent food served with excellent hospitality. Highly recommend this restaurant as one of the best if not the best in South Ken, all the dishes we had were delicious - great flavours, top quality, great portions and presentation. The rotisserie chicken was well cooked and juicy, the royal couscous a medley of delicious flavours and textures. The restaurant itself is impeccably clean, tastefully decorated and has lovely ambience. Finally the price of the food and drinks are all very reasonable and value for money especially for the neighbourhood. Wishing the owners all the very best, we will be back for sure! L
