L' Amamindine in Richmond upon Thames

On the 17th December, our family had booked online to eat here before an 8pm performance at the nearby Normansfield theatre . We received a booking confirmation number with specific reference to our one vegan diner but when we arrived, despite the lights being on, the place was empty and there was a note stuck to the door saying “we are closed” This may have been due to an emergency and if so we hope all is ok with the owners but we did not receive any notification and had to walk the streets to find another restaurant that could accommodate us in time without a booking.

Perfect place for a dinner with friends on a Friday night. Superb presentation of food, excellent service, proper wine list. Had been here in the past for special occasions, and then a long gap between visits, was so glad to come back. Highly recommended.

Absolutely fab neighbourhood restaurant in St Margarets. On Tuesday and Wednesday they offer free corkage. The food is well done and fairly priced - especially if you get the prix fixe menu. A proper local gem - very pleased to have found it.

Como primer cena en Côte, estaba más que satisfecho. Nuestro camarero Halim era tan atento, divertido y no podría haber cuidado de nosotros mejor. Melanie también fue muy atento y servicial durante toda la duración de nuestra comida. 5 * + para ambos, realmente hicieron mi comida especial.

Great staff- awful food. This is the worst breakfast I have ever eaten. It was that bad me and friends were in floods of tears laughing. We ordered 7 breakfasts. The breakfast comes with a ramekin containing 8 beans (I counted). All the toast was stone cold, most of which was black. My friend ordered a pork toastie and received a burnt crust. I’d guess they ran out of bread? Do not go here for breakfast. It is undoubtedly the worst breakfast in Richmond. In fairness, the staff were lovely. I did say at the end that the food was terrible though and wasn’t probed or asked why. More atmosphere in my downstairs toilet.
