numnum in Southwark - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Realmente no veo cuál es el gran problema de este lugar desde una perspectiva vegetariana. Anoche comí arroz con jazmín y col rizada y repollo con soja y no fue nada especial. De hecho, tenía hambre cuando me fui. Mi cita tenía el pollo Kung Pao y dijo que estaba bien, pero no me entusiasmó. Sí, es barato y tiene una decoración genial, pero no volvería.

Almuerzo increíble! Fui a probarlo ayer, tuve el tazón de arroz con pollo Kung Pao y mi amigo tenía el tazón de arroz con pollo al curry. La comida fue increible! Sabores increíbles, un gran servicio, un ambiente fenomenal y definitivamente volveré.

Tenía el cerdo Char siu con arroz, que era una porción de gran tamaño para menos de diez centavos, fui a almorzar, pero sería un gran lugar para revolver el estómago antes de ir al encantador bar de vinos Blackfriars al lado. Uno de una cantidad cada vez mayor de restaurantes en los arcos al otro lado de la carretera desde el tubo de Southwark

¡Me encantó este restaurante! El ambiente era genial, la comida era muy sabrosa, tuvimos el Kung Pao Chicken Rice Bowl y el Green Curry Roasted Chicken, los amamos a ambos. Además, excelente ubicación, a solo unos minutos del Museo Tate.

Lovely food at a great price. Great front of house. What a fab place! Highly recommend the C green chicken curry and bone marrow fried rice - their signature dish apparently. Worth the walk off the main drag. Love it!

What can I say great front of house, food fantastic and great value for money. Great local pubs for a beer before and after!

Lovely to have Chinese street food style in the area. It’s a hidden gem and would recommend for lunch. Spacious, child friendly and friendly staff with delicious food. Highly recommend.

Really tasty food for a reasonable price. The smashed cucumber salad is incredible. The bone marrow is amazing. Such good flavours. Staff were friendly. Toilets were clean. Wine was good. We will definitely come back.

Only been open a few months and now deservedly getting quite busy lunchtimes. A great mix of Chinese and Thai foods, extremely tasty and generous portions, this place is spotlessly clean and the management could not be any nicer, so glad to have this on my office doorstep, excellent all round.

Just had the beef noodle soup. Looked like a very small portion and couldn’t see many noodles, but after one forkful... oh my days!!! Actually amazing. Beef was cooked to absolute perfection and there was loads of it too! I was proper surprised. Also, the noodles were al dente and hiding under all the beef. I would’ve preferred different noodles, maybe something a bit thicker - still, couldn’t fault this dish one bit. 10/10. Pork dumplings were also incredible. Decent amount of good sized dumplings that were perfectly formed and cooked to perfection. Delicious! 9/10 Price was very fair at £17 for both (including a beer). Some other great sounding dishes on the menu for a good price too. The lady that served me (girl from Latvia) was very pleasant, helpful and generally a lovely human! Great customer service 10/10. Would highly recommend this place!

numnum - Restaurant Review Cuisine: Contemporary Chinese Style Points: 4/5 Location: Southwark Price: £ Overall: 4/5 Chinese food is one of my favourite cuisines and recently I had the opportunity to try newly opened contemporary Chinese restaurant numnum. Following a successful period as a pop up in London’s iconic Spitalfield’s market, numnum can now be found in the heart of Southwark where it operates out of a funky converted railway arch. The dining area is large and the long white painted ceilings give it a real spacious feel and the gentle rumble of trains passing overhead only add to the cool feel of the place. But of course the proof is in the food so we took our seats whilst the lovely proprietor Tim talked us through the menu. The menu itself isn’t extensive as one would expect from a Chinese restaurant, instead the restaurants has focused on quality over quantity and there is a great selection to choose from including an array of noodles, wok fried and roasted dishes along with soups and dumplings. The menu will also change constantly to use seasonal ingredients and allow the chefs to experiment with new dishes and flavours from their respective region of Southern China. Food? We tried the Wonton Noodle Soup with pork and prawn wontons, bok choi and shitake mushrooms in a rich chicken broth made out of entire chickens and their bones that’s been boiled for eight hours. Alongside this we had Twice Cooked Pork with leak and peppers, and Pan Fried Pork and Chive Dumplings drizzled in chilli oil and garnished with coriander. The noodle soup was a refreshing palette cleanser and chocked full with the flavour of chicken in the broth. The wontons were very tasty and had plentiful amounts of minced pork and prawn. The twice cooked pork was one of my favourite dishes and really put to shame all the twice cooked pork dishes I’ve ordered from my local takeaway over the years! It was super delicious and the leaks and peppers were the perfect crunchy accompaniment to the juicy pork. I actually preferred the chive dumplings to the pork ones, this might be because I still had the twice cooked pork on my mind! Nonetheless both were very nice and the chili oil drizzled on top gave them a nice spicy finish. After these dishes we tried the Kung Pao Chicken which consisted of chicken thigh pieces wok fried with dried chili and cashew nuts, numnum Roasted Corn Fed Chicken, Golden Honey and Spice Roasted Chicken, and Beef Bone Marrow Fried Rice. I love Kung Pao Chicken and this one was particularly delicious with juicy chicken thighs pieces coated in a wonderful sauce made with dried chili. We were excited to try the roasted chicken dishes which came with three pieces each but you can order a half chicken sharing size that consists of six pieces. Tim informed us that the honey and spice was his favourite and I would have to say it was mine too. The numnum version was very nice but that honey glaze was sweet, spicy and tasted divine when biting into the juicy chicken. Along with the twice cooked pork and the honey and spice roasted chicken, the bone marrow fried rice is a must try. A moreish mound of wild rice cooked with peppers and other delicious ingredients is served with a beef bone filled with meaty bone marrow. Tim told us to add the marrow to the rice before eating it on its own was good enough for me as I’ve loved bone marrow ever since I was a little girl and my used to cooked lamb bones for me to suck the marrow out of it. Delicious! Price? The prices at numnum are very reasonable, especially for the portions you receive. The wok fried dishes such as the twice cooked pork and the kung pao chicken were £7.5, the roasted chicken dishes were £7 for three pieces or £10 for six pieces, and the pan fried dumplings were £4.50. The wonton noodle soup was £7 which may seem steep for a broth but you get a huge portion and there was plenty of wontons. You will definitely be able to get a meal for two people for under £20. Overall? I’m delighted that numnum now has a permanent home in London. Given the success of the pop up I’m sure the restaurant will be around for many years to come and I will definitely be going back to sample new dishes as well as some more of that moreish honey and spice roasted chicken. If you like Chinese food as most people do then I recommend you give this place a try.

Had lunch here, food was so, so good, very good value, super clean place, and the owner was incredibly forthcoming and a great host! Will be coming again and strongly recommend it.

INCREDIBLE Food. Just went for lunch. Tasty, fresh, clean and just divine. Will definitely be going back on the reg.

Ssssoooooo good. All the flavours none of the oil .. highly recommend. Had the chicken and seasonal veg. Amazing

We stumbled upon this place on a night out in Southwark, it's hidden in a railway arch in an area that is so up and coming it will definitely do well. Great food and service. Worth a visit.

Best food and service. Clean and neat enviroment, clean facilities. Food very tasty . The dumplings are all home made. Menus well thought of. Honey glazed fat free fried chicken, most juicy. Dan Dan noodles are well made. A must to visit while in area.

Tried kungpao chicken and twice cooked pork, both excellent. Very interesting flavours, really stands out from run of the mill Chinese food, and great value for the quality of food.
