Le Parisien in Waltham Forest

I came here for lunch and as it was a nice day I sat outside. After eight minutes, I still had not received any recognition that I was actually there or a menu, I left. It took me another two minutes to get my coat and my handbag ready, then the waitress turned up as I was literally walking off the premises. She asked if she could help me, I said you should’ve done that 10 minutes ago. Her face then took on the ‘ I’ve just sucked a lemon’

Came here on our way to a party and sadly wasn't impressed. Maki rolls online were £3 and website said £5 but in the restaurant were £7 - I've never seen maki this expensive! Didnt have any sushi due to price. I had the vegetable fried noodles which tasted vinegary (bottled sauce) and 3 bits of broccoli. Pretty basic. My friend had spicey chicken rice which was nice. Wouldn't recommend.

(I have just corrected a typo, so my review is not brand new.) Noticed this place a while ago, next door to our famous Leytonestone gas station with Alfred Hitchcock's blue plaque. Saw it going from a mix-and-match basic setup to what is now a very nice looking restaurant, especially considering the local standard. Today we dropped by with my partner, realizing they had a lunch buffet, and it was very much worth it. The people were friendly and the food excellent. Never had Ugandan food before, but it ticked all the boxes for me. Yummy. The place has a quiet and relaxing atmosphere, with the right kind of background music. We will certainly return.

My friend and I attended there today, for a quick got chocolate really good customer service by a young guy called Joe. Made us feel very welcome. This place is a must.

Lukas the server is amazing. Friendly, attentive, overall brilliant. It's not the best Caribbean food I've ever eaten, but the drinks are absolutely stellar, and happy hour deals are the best. We will be returning.
