Pepos in Enfield

Lovely restaurant with great tasting food in a lovely and friendly atmosphere! Staff are very attentive and give good recommendations when you are not sure about what to choose from a great variety of food. Every time I go, it never disappoints!

Had a lovely meal with my wife, all round great service, Special mention to the young lady Mia who just started, seems like a great addition to an already great team!

This is a little gem in Cockfosters. The Staff is so friendly, the food has been amazing. The Carpaccio , steak, fries, bruschetta. At my first visit the staff overheard me wanting spaghetti carbonara which was not on the Menu and they offered to make it for me. Oh boy that did not disappoint. Will def will be back soon. Thank you!

Mia was amazing! Great service. Good food will definitely be back .

Such a great atmosphere, with delicious food and great service from Azad!! Would definitely recommend

We had a lovely meal at Pepos. The service and food were excellent. I will definitely be returning with family/friends.

Friendly, Attentive and Efficient all round service with a nice varied menu. Was made to feel very welcome and appreciated by our smiling waiter Josh on our arrival despite not having a booking. Can highly recommend The Arabiatta, A good atmosphere with a Authentic Italian themed decor and helpful staff.

Amazing restaurant, wood fired oven and family run. Real gem ❤️

We were a table of 9 and spent over £400. The service wasn't great. Initially only 5 out of the 9 of us were asked for drinks. We then had to ask for the rest of the drinks order to be taken. We ordered a white wine and were given a red. My husband wasn’t asked for his drink order at all. Starters came out at different intervals. 2 meatballs were very different in appearance and quantity of sauce. Got sent a calamari which we didn’t order but 1 of the 2 meatballs came at least 5 mins after the 1st. Main courses - aubergine parmagiana was burnt and inedible and I was told it would take at least 15 mins to make another so I changed for a different pasta dish which seemed rushed - thin creamy sauce and very al dente (almost undercooked) pasta. We asked for the chicken to come with chips instead of mash. It came with mash and they apologised and said they forgot so the chips were on the side. My nephew doesn’t like mash so therefore ate very little of the chicken as it was sat on the mash. The veal came and was served with nothing else on the plate and we were then asked who ordered a side of mash - it was part of the veal dish. The salad and the aubergine were served at least 5 mins after everything else but I couldn’t eat the aubergine as it was burnt. The 2nd drinks order came out as 3 drinks and then a coke was forgotten and had to be reminded again. We also only ordered 4 puddings - 2 came out together and then 2 sorbets came to the table after the first 2 puddings had been eaten. Why does it take an extra 10 mins to serve a scoop of sorbet?? The food (apart from the aubergine) was tasty but the service generally wasn’t great and for a meal that cost over £400 I would expect better.

We recently ate here to celebrate a family birthday. The waiting and kitchen staff were attentive, polite and very knowledgeable about their menu. They all went above and beyond to cater for my gluten free needs which was so appreciated. The food is amazing and decent portions are served. Would recommend to anyone looking for great food with a lovely atmosphere.

Lovely restaurant with great service. The waiting staff were very attentive and friendly. The food was great and so we're the cocktails. I can't wait to return and try something else from the menu.

Fantastic food and reasonable price considering the quality and location. The fish was outstanding, as was the veal carpaccio

Wonderful food and wine and service! Thanks to Azad for looking after us and we will be back again

Really good food had the tomato pasta with chicken was delicious!

delicious food and great service!

Wow wow wow! We hosted our wedding lunch there for 60 people and the service and food was incredible. Our original restaurant cancelled at relatively short notice 6 weeks before we wed and Pepos accommodated us and went above and beyond to make the whole occasion so special and run smoothly. Guests can’t stop talking about how yummy the food was and how lovely the staff were. There was nothing too much for them to help with, guests were looked after, dietary requirements accommodated for and food was good sizes and portions. The cheesecake was to die for!! We all plan to go back and make it a regular!

Amazing Neapolitan pizza, a real surprise. Great soft 24 hour dough, tasteful ingredients, wood fired oven. A lot of attention to detail here and not just another high street Italian.

First time here - amazing food, probably the best pizza and pasta I have had in London. Very reasonably priced, lovely service. Will come back and recommend to friends!

Amazing food, large portions of American Italian goodness. Not traditional Italian but I’m here for that. THE BEST PIZZA IN NORTH LONDON. And that’s proper Neapolitan style. Friendly service and cool interior and bar. A MUST FOR THE AREA

Really really delicious Italian….both the pizza and pasta were amazing. This would be good if you had it in soho but the fact it’s a local neighbourhood spot is even better. Will be coming here a lot from now on

We went to Pepos for lunch today. The woodfired pizzas were great, and the Calamari was outstanding. The staff were friendly and looked after us very well. We'd highly recommend Pepos.

Really tasty food and great portions. Lovely glamorous atmosphere

Been here a couple of times and the food has always been great and the service is also brilliant. I would definitely go again. Recommended the place for our work Christmas do and my colleagues also loved it!

Really good quality food and service. Fine touches like the table being cleaned between courses, being asked how the food is each course, and any issues being resolved politely.

Excellent food, great service, lovely place. Well worth the visit. Will definitely be back.

Went for a meal with a friend and the staff were extremely nice and helpful. The atmosphere was cosy and elegant. I highly recommend this to everyone and the food is the best Italian food I've had in London!

Truly Amazing Restaurant. Staff were very welcoming and helpful the service was A1. Food was delicious, and as described by the helpful staff in regards to portion sizes which were generous. Evry plate was cooked well and extremely tasted. Restaurant decor was classy and environment was very cosy. Atmosphere was great nice feeling overall. 10/10 experoence. Planning on returning.

We came here as a group of friends and had a lovely round table. The restaurant itself is very large, so you don’t feel too close to other diners We had the porn star martinis which were excellent. The food was so tasty. Esp the burrata and the breseola. Leave room for the fruit flavoured cheesecake dessert. Wow! Our waiters were just brilliant, anticipating our needs and being very attentive.

We visited Pepos restaurant and had a fantastic experience. Ella, our waiter, was friendly and attentive, offering great recommendations. The food was delicious and authentic. The manager, Josh, checked in to ensure we were satisfied, adding a nice personal touch. He clearly cares about the place and keeps everything running smoothly. Highly recommended! See you soon!.

We had fantastic family meal with fantastic service. We find this every time we come to Pepos 🫶

Lovely food and fantastic service from the team and chef. Very personable and friendly, feel very welcome. Had a lovely evening with few work friends. This was 2nd visit and definitely plan to return again in future. Highly recommended for quality food, lots of choice.

I have dined here a couple of times now and each time the food, service and atmosphere have been excellent. A nice variety of dishes, portion sizes good (not nouvelle cuisine tiny or overwhelmingly huge) and served by friendly and attentive staff. Would definitely recommend.

We always have a wonderful experience here, the Manager is exceptionally friendly and always ensures excellent service and the food is as good as the best Italian restaurants in the West End

Nice place, great music, okay service. But when it comes to the food, I wasn't satisfied. My soup was tasteless, like water with vegetables. The risotto had too much butter and the liver was swimming in butter. My daughter's lamb shank was inedible. Nice manager who removed the dish from the bill. I don't know if this place is worth recommending

Went to Pepos for a family birthday. Service from Cerkan & Helen was fantastic. Really made us feel welcome & special. Food was all freshly prepared and the meals were all excellent. We will be back soon!!

Went for special occasion on a Monday night. Pizzas were great which is surprisiny hard to find good pizza around Barnet/Enfield… and had a nice selection of wine. Can’t complain at all, with great service for the evening.

Our first time dining at this wonderful restaurant, overall a great experience and would definitely recommend. Service and food excellent. All the staff very friendly and professional. Looking forward to our next visit.

Had dinner here last Saturday food and service was excellent and the portions of the food and large to say the least will be returning

Great service, food was delicious. Becoming a firm favourite

An amazing Italian restaurant that offers a fresh, vibrant and researched type of cuisine in North East London. A true gem that combines the many years of experience from Head Chef Claudio with an outstanding service provided throughout the evening. Highly recommended, we will definitely be back. Thank you!

On Sunday I ordered a cocktail drink and I found an ant in my drink. I had to ask if they can remake to the drink. The food was nice and tasty.

Fantastic food selection and really great service. Restaurant is large and spacious with nice decor and well laid out.

Lovely Italian spot with amazing service

Had a wonderful dining experience at Pepos, food and service was amazing, and the cheese cake and tiramisu was to die for, staff were extremely polite and friendly, restaurant was clean and atmosphere was calm and relaxed. Highly recommend

Amazing place, best restaurant in the area. Josh, the manager, is one in a million and has a very special way to make you feel at home. 100/10 !

This is the best Italian restaurant I have been to in the UK. Beautifully stylish and classy restaurant, interesting, fresh and delicious menu, the staff are so friendly and passionate. Absolutely amazing in every way, would highly recommend for dates, group dinners, lunches.

This restaurant is definitely a vibe. DEFINITELY try their margarita pizza and i strongly reccomend a glass of Prosecco champagne. Staff was also pretty friendly.

We went to Pepos for dinner with friends, the place is charming and I can say as an Italian that the food is really good, the flavors and smells are authentic. We ordered octopus, eggplant parmigiana, zucchini flowers, and gorgonzola ravioli as starters, and for the main course, pizza and cacio e pepe pasta. I must thank Chef Claudio for this culinary experience and Josh and his waiters for the meticulous service, attentive to details and always ready to help when needed.

Honestly one of the best Italian restaurant in London, Josh as a manager was very welcome, the chef personally came to say hello. The food was delicious! Definitely will be back soon!

Great service! Everything was delicious and really good portions.

Great food, portions were good. Lovely pizza and dessert!

I had lunch with my family . We order few things , everything was really good . Pizza very good , pasta as well . I definitely recommend the leaver in the Marsala wine it was spot on , not over and really soft . Fast and polite service also . Prices were good for the quality of the food , the portions and the environment.Definitely recommend. I’m going back .

We had a lovely evening at Pepos. The food was delicious, full of flavour and large portions. I don’t usually go for Italian or pasta dishes when eating out but I’d definitely come back to try other options on the menu. I had seafood pasta with linguine instead of the pasta on the menu, which our waiter recommended. Service was excellent and decor of the restaurant gave a lovely ambiance. Thank you!!

Absolutely great experience. visited on 18th august 2024 with a group of 14, adults and kids. Staff had nice big table all set up. The atmosphere and look of the restaurant is fantastic. Very inviting with a great view of the wood fire pizza oven. Staff were very friendly and accommodating for slight changes to the menu. Cocktails and drinks were very well made and presented. Food was fantastic with a good selection of meat and vegetarian option. Everything was fresh, tasty and well presented. we had a mix of starters and mains and all was fantastic.

The quality of the food is very good, you can feel the Greek / Turkish cuisine and tavern culture in the starters with a nice cocktail starter. The atmosphere is wonderful, it has been newly renovated and offers a beautiful environment. The guys at the service were very responsive and helpful, they easily charged my phone and were diligent to ensure we had a good experience. Compared to beautiful areas by London standards, it is very good in terms of price and quality balance. Instead of paying 100 pounds for two people, you will pay 70 pounds.

Good food and service but quality is not consistent. Ambiance and sitting area is great.

Delicious pizza and lasagna, good service. Nice location good atmosphere

my mum and i strolled here one evening and were completely blown away by the food. so tasty and the restaurant was so lively and nice. the menu is both innovative and has classics and with the tables outside, it felt like dining on holiday (although on cockfosters road 😭). 100% taking friends and family back!!!

Good food and service but is it necessary to have thumping music even if it wasn't too loud. Spoils ability to have a conversation!

We have just had a wonderful evening at Pepos. The food was gorgeous and the staff so friendly and welcoming. Lovely restaurant and stylish decor, we will definitely come again. Thank you for making it a lovely evening.

Great food, and a lovely welcome by Josh the manager. He and his staff are very attentive. Definitely worth a visit - not too pricey either.

We love Pepos. We love the owners, the staff, the food. My partner is a chef himself so we love finding places that are amazing to dine at and this is one of them! It’s become one of our new favourites and we’re so looking forward to coming back!

Tasty food ,clean, nice atmosphere, great stuff ( especially Memi or Mimi I don't remember exactly the name) . He was very friendly professional and helpful. Thank you

A really high end restaurant but without the high prices!! The decor is great and the food delicious and unusual, generous portion sizes too!! The dishes are brought pretty quickly, lots of attentive staff.

First time here recommend by a family member, I’m Italian myself so I understand Italian cuisine, absolutely amazing! starters, main course and dessert was absolutely delicious. The service was amazing, decoration and bar look really nice if your passing by definitely come and see their specialties.

Lovely looking restaurant and nice atmosphere - good music, decor and lighting, sort of a holiday vibe. Service was pretty good too although did have to call the waiter over several times - would be nice if they came over to check occasionally but generally was fine. What was a bit disappointing was the food - The calamari wasn't particularly fresh tasting, the burrata was just a ball of mozzarella and didn't have the creamy unctuousness you want and they didn't have the stuffed courgette flowers as detailed on the menu. Also the beef ragu lacked depth and I've had better at home/friends houses. On a more positive note the pizzas were very, very good.

Came here on a whim after our original plans hit a snag. So glad we did! This place is a gem and we’ll definitely be back. Incredible service

Very nice place to eat, the food was overall lovely, I can honestly say the carbonara was the best I’ve ever had, the octopus was cooked perfectly, the pizza was really nice and fluffy… the service was ok, was a bit slow as in we had to ask for certain things twice as the waiters would forget, but I guess it can happen… the restaurant was also a tad too dark I guess they’re trying to create an ambiance… could also be preference I guess, but yeah overall decent 😊

The most amazing lasagne that I ever had !!!!. Very friendly and polite staff. Very nice and fashion interior

Yummy and tasty pasta dishes..will come again for the pizza. Friendly service

We been for dinner on fatherday table for 4 , we order drink cocktail that arrive with chopped glass on and waiter dropped a bit drink on table, I ask for replacemet where i was waiting other 20min , if i wouldn't ask again i assuming they forgot about my proseco , also we order desert ( sorbet( ice-cream) & panacota that we been wait over 30min for it, regarding price a bit expensive for the quality they have and service charge that they charge !!

I recently dined at Pepos Italian Restaurant, and it was an amazing experience from start to finish. The food was absolutely delicious, with so many amazing options on the menu, it was hard to choose! My pepos pizza was so delicious and the portion sizes were perfectly big! Emin, our waiter/host, made our visit unforgettable. He was not only brilliant at his job but also brought a fun and lively energy to the table. His friendly demeanor and attention to detail made our dining experience truly special. I highly recommend Pepos for anyone looking to enjoy fantastic Italian cuisine with top-notch service!

The ambience here is so lovely and the food is just so delicious! Everything about this restaurant is perfect- if you want 5 star Italian food you definitely must come here!

Food is amazing!! Come here for authentic Italian. Service is also top tier

Beautiful food especially the rigatoni pasta, the staff are so friendly. Definitely the best Italian In Cockfosters!!

I recently had the pleasure of dining at this Italian restaurant, and I must say, it was an outstanding experience. The Italian cuisine is nothing short of spectacular, with each dish crafted to perfection. The flavors were authentic, and the ingredients were fresh and high-quality, making for an unforgettable meal. The staff added to the exceptional dining experience, being both attentive and friendly. I must give special mention to the manager, Josh, and our waitress, Ella, whose hospitality went above and beyond. Their professionalism and warmth made us feel incredibly welcome and ensured that every aspect of our visit was perfect. If you're looking for an exquisite Italian dining experience, this restaurant is a must-visit. With superb food and an incredible team, it truly stands out!!

Really enjoyed our meal. All the food was great. Starters were a decent size which was nice to see. Waiting staff were friendly, attentive and were patient and accommodating of the picky vegetarians in our group.

The quality of the food was not good at all and the service as well... They charge us extra 48£ for the service..!

The best italian restaurant in Cockfosters the food is always amazing fresh tasty and you could tell it’s top quality products they are using.The service is always amazing too love Pepos and always go and will carry on to support and go as it’s an amazing resturant!!

Although the internal decor is spot on, unfortunately the food is not great and the plates are heavily chipped. However the staff were lovely and nothing was too much trouble.

Was there Friday 10/05.The attention from staff was marvellous.The food was marvellous.The service was marvellous....in fact everything was marvellous!

What an amazing experience! The food was delicious and a waitress named Era was so helpful and sweet, definitely returning to Pepos.

Was our first time trying pepos and we had a fabulous time. Emin was very attentive and knew the menu well. Was truely service with class. Looking around everyone working genuinely looked happy to be there which isn’t always the case in hospitality. The food was incredible, recommend the octopus (some of the best I’ve had in the uk) and the tiramisu was amazing. If your thinking about making the trip I would say it’s worth it

Beautiful restaurant, such a lovely ambience and the staff are wonderful and welcoming. Super informative, they have an updated menu as of three days ago. Authentic Italian cuisine and the prices are fair for the quality of food. The music is really nice too. They gave us free home-made Italian ice cream with caramel sauce and we watched the cook make and roll pasta from scratch. I can only imagine how beautiful it looks at night with the backlit accents!😍They have so many gluten free options, so inclusive.

We went there today to celebrate my sister's wedding with a meal. So what can I say, we were a small group of 15 people including two children, my sister found this restaurant at the last minute and what can I say just wow. We had a set menu with starters and then a main to decide on. Drinks excluded. Then the amazing Roman chef introduced himself and made us feel welcome (we were special customers as 95% of us only ate halal meat and he got us the meat specifically so that we wouldn't have problems choosing. We had starters of many types including pizza, fried courgettes, tricolor salad etc. very good portions in the end we had homemade ice cream ❤️ all delicious very good light pizza. I can only say everything was wonderful. all the staff were very courteous and our Bulgarian waiter (sorry I don't remember her name) super good, super kind and impeccably helpful. The blonde lady with the tail who arrived at the end around 5pm was super kind (I had to breastfeed my baby and she found me a comfortable place where I could breastfeed without prying eyes, thank you). a thousand. I was only sorry not to have been able to say goodbye to the waiter and the lady in the jacket who welcomed us and served us during the service. Thank you very much for your impeccable service. Especially to the Bulgarian boy who looked after us through and through. I have worked in many well-known restaurants both in the kitchen and in the dining room, I am in the profession so I can give you a review that is worthy of your service and your very, very good food and I wanted to let you know. I highly recommend this place as they make families with children feel welcomed and above all welcome. Very nice clean environment and excellent service. Very good alcohol free cocktails. We love good food and will definitely return. Thanks everyone again. ❤️

Highlights were the blood orange cheesecake, ravioli ricotta past and the garlic bread.

Nice food, lovely service (Patrice who welcomed us in and Helen- so so nice) and great ambiance. This is our first time and we’ll be back. My son wants to write something :- It was very nice, lovely service and people, food was amazing we are definitely coming back if my mum and dad will take me.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at this gem of an Italian restaurant in North London, and it was an absolute delight! From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with such warmth and friendliness from the staff, making me feel right at home. Let me tell you about the food – it was simply phenomenal! The pizza, the olive bread, and the parmigiana were all delicious, truly a taste of Italy right here in London. What really impressed me was how clean the restaurant was and how quick the service was, without sacrificing any quality. It's clear that they take pride in what they do and in providing an exceptional dining experience for their guests. Needless to say, I'll definitely be returning! If you're in the mood for some authentic Italian cuisine served with a smile, this is the place to go.

I really had high hopes for this place but unfortunately it was very disappointing steak was returned twice as it was not medium rare even after them recooking it twice by which time the meat was very poor, they did remove from bill though . I knew the prices beforehand and was willing to pay but unfortunately for £49 ribeye I expected something very very tasty and I can honestly say I’ve had better in the pub for half the price also the quality of the salumi starter was poor If you’re gonna do Italian restaurant then expect Italian clients that expect quality Italian food not cheap quality salamis , I will definitely not be back in a rush However the staff wine and the deserts were outstanding and that’s why I will give 3 stars and not 1

Four of us had an exceptional meal at Pepos yesterday evening. We were given an excellent table by the window and our order was taken quickly and efficiently. The food was delicious and hot and was served quickly in a very caring and attentive way. The Italian wine made it even better and the price was very reasonable. We will definitely return again soon

Was invited back by the owner after a bad experience when they first opened. What a complete different experience the food was fantastic the veal schnitzel one of the best I’ve had . Staff couldn’t do enough well done completely changed our mind about the place See you again Grant

I love this new restaurant. Service and food was amazing. Will definitely return. The meat ball starter is delicious!

New restaurant in cockfosters, nice atmosphere. We ordered the pizzas, but compared to other places they were lacking. Not bad flavour wise, but pretty basic. There was more crust than actual pizza toppings and was doughey. Not worth the high prices for what was given. High service charge was added to the bill automatically.

I took family who were visiting to this brilliant new restaurant in Cockfosters on a Sunday afternoon and they were all raving about how amazing the whole experience was. The decor and feel of the place is one of a relaxed classy vibe, with beautiful decor and a lovely ambience. The food was absolutely incredible, quite possibly the best Pizza in North London, the desserts (especially the cheesecake and Tiramishu) are the best I've had at any restaurant in years, even the wine suggestions were so good that some of our party had to ask the waiter the name of the wine so they knew to order it again next time. Lastly the attentiveness of the staff was nothing short of exceptional. I'd like to give a special mention to Natalya and to Dosh for making all of us feel so welcome and so well looked after during our visit - this really was a lovely personal touch. If you're looking for a brilliant Italian restaurant in North London, look no further than Pepos. 5 Stars

great food with great service. Love pizzas.

Excellent customer services and nice atmosphere!! The place is very stylish....we'll be back soon :-)

Amazing location for quality pasta, pizza and food. Thank you Josh for being so kind to explain the wine and menu.

Food was brilliant, lovely chic decor and staff really welcoming and helpful! Definitely will be back!

Excellent Italian food. As a four we ordered spaghetti alle vongole, sea bass, risotto and pizza. I tried everything and they all tasted delicious.

Average Italian cuisine and taste have been once and won't go back , and it could be a lot better for the prices charged . I'll stick to my other local favourites.
