The Med Kitchen in Croydon

The food was great, however the attitude of the staff was a bit disappointing. This was our second time there but the staff weren’t very attentive to our order: 1. We ordered a virgin mojito and they gave an alcoholic drink. There was no apology for the mistake. 2. They tried to give a fish dish to us but got the wrong table and we are vegetarian, which I mentioned when booking the table."

Food was absolutely delicious especially the chicken liver and the mixed seafood stew will definitely be going back

Perfect, we loved it here. Something for everyone. Cant wait to go back

I love this place ! It was absolutely packed last night but the service and food was as fantastic as ever ! Great atmosphere!

Great little Turkish spot. Well presented resturant with very rustic and cool interior decor. The food was great from cold starters to main dish. Starters we shared hummus, king prawns, fried calamari rings and falafel which was not that great so would order the falafel again. I Had the chicken kofta beyti which is grilled minced chicken kabab cooked slow over Smokey charcoal and then wrapped In tortilla covered with yogurt and drizzled with little chili oil. My other friends had the mix grill which they said was great and a decent size portion too. The baklava with ice cream was ok to finish off the evening meal. Gives a little fine dining experience which was great. Was a bit far out for me from where I live but friends live closer and had decided to go eat out there but was worth the trip and would go again. Good local resturant in wallington village south east London.

Have eaten at Med Kitchen many times and it never fails to be consistently good. Took 4 friends here recently and they loved it. It’s a very comfortable place with great decor and atmosphere. We shared some dips and bread to start, but be careful not to eat too much as the mains are very generous! Everything was delicious, hot and well presented. They also offered us to try a couple of wines we were unsure of, before selecting. The service is always excellent, and we have never been rushed to leave our table. Med Kitchen thoroughly deserves its good reputation, you will not be disappointed here.

Masha allah this food is proper. Thank you 🙏🏼🤲👌🏼

My first trip to The Med Kitchen and it did not disappoint. Beautiful food, enormous portions. Attentive and friendly staff. Well catered for special dietary requirements. Lovely atmosphere, we will definitely be back.

Lovely evening celebrating New Years Eve here at the Med Kitchen. Fantastic food as always with fabulous service. Thank you !

Absolutely wonderful meal! Brought a large group for my Dad’s 60th, staff were super attentive and friendly, the atmosphere was lovely - nice and busy, especially for New Years Day. The portions were huge and everything we tried was delicious :) Thanks team for surprising my dad with a birthday dessert too!! Will definitely be back, brilliant options for gluten free and vegetarian requirements!

We loved the outlook of the restaurant , ratings, interior and the food but felt that the lamb was bit off but delicious anyway so ate it. Everything was 8/10 but as soon as we left the restaurant we both got ill ( vomit / Diarrhoea ) and still recovering 3 days after . So don't be going there again . Such a shame

Great quality food and portion size. The hummus, baba ghanoush for starter with bread was tasty. The adana with yogurt was extremely tender lamb and flavoursome. The bulgar was really good too. Definitely recommend this place.

Amazing experience and the staff are wonderful.

Very friendly and fast service, the food amazing, I love it! Highly recommend.

Our favorit occasion eat out. Simply best of all with super friendly staff.

Great place for get-together. Delucious food.Friendly atmosphere. It was slightly expensive.

Always have lunch in this place and always have a lovely time.

Everything I ordered was good, it wasnt very busy (4pm, Saturday) and food came fast

Been there quite a few times over the last 4 years. Very nice food and excellent service every time.

Had the two-course lunch a a glass of Turkish wine. The food was delicious. They were very busy, always a good sign. Would definitely go back again.

Lovely food at very reasonable prices

Absolutely fantastic food and brilliant service

We visited for my father's 92nd birthday. The food was delicious, the service prompt and friendly. Our only slight problem was that as three older people with hearing problems the volume was quite overpowering. Altogether though I would highly recommend this restaurant.

My friends and I recently went to this restaurant having booked for 6.30pm on a Saturday. It turns out that the restaurant has two sittings. As we had booked for the first sitting , we had to vacate the restaurant by 8pm. This gives us only 90 mins. Unfortunately we all felt rushed with our meal. The waiters kept hovering around our table at every stage. When we got our starters served, we felt that the waiters were keeping an eye on our table as to when they can take the plates away for the main course. Same happened with the main course. We felt under pressure to finish the meal and go. Not a good feeling. At 8pm there were plenty tables empty so it does not feel that they were busy. I hope that whoever decides to visit this restaurant does not book for the early sitting.

The four of us had a selection of main meals, all great with well presented sides. Our two friends come here often and sometimes get takeaways. The staff were very attentive. We went to an early eve sitting and although the place had plenty of tables full, you could hear yourself speak and chat nicely.

Lovely venue for a birthday celebration. Friendly staff and good grub

Lovely food, great atmosphere and excellent service 😀

Had a lunch visit at The Medicine Kitchen today—service was stellar and lightning quick. The food? Perfectly cooked, juicy, and tender. Couldn’t have asked for a better meal! If you’re in the area, it’s a must-try spot.

Lovely restaurant with huge portions that you can take home if you can't eat it all but waiters could do with using some Deodorant:-) so sorry but it's true

I am disabled in an electric wheelchair and this was my first time at this restaurant. It was easy to get into the restaurant and there was plenty of room at and around the table. Sometimes I feel as if I am in the way but not here. The food was excellent, service was great and the portion sizes were amazing. Thank you, we will be back!

Amazing food, so delicious you won't want to leave without being full! A great choice for friends and family

Great food, plenty for money spend Nice staff and nice place

Med Kitchen in Sanderstead has a menu which features a range of classic dishes like hummus, falafel, kebabs, and grilled vegetables, often paired with flavorful herbs and spices. The ambiance is casual yet inviting, perfect for a relaxed meal and the portions are generous. While some may find the pricing a bit high for casual dining, the quality of the food makes it worthwhile. Overall, it’s a great spot for those craving authentic Mediterranean cuisine. Only thing disappointing was we felt we were being rushed while still eating our starters and I had ordered normal hot water with my meal which I was charged for. Other than that everything was amazing and would highly recommend for all to go there.

Have visited enough times to know it is reliably extremely good, takeaway included. Great atmosphere inside, perfect for almost any social occasion be it a dinner for two or a catch up with friends. The staff are attentive and present and the food is sublime.

Always love this place. The food is brilliant, portions are large and the staff are kind. My wife and I got a starter and main each and cost us £60. It's become one of our regular places to eat. Being able to book the table online is useful too.

The choice of food was extensive and delicious. The staff were attentive and so accommodating. The waiter engaged and chatted with my 4 year old grandson which I thought was nice. The decor was welcoming and cozy. The bathroom facilities were spotless. Definitely go to the Med Kitchen if you are in the area.

Very nice, friendly staff, doing great days... food delicious. Highly recommended

We've recently moved into the area and are totally in love with this place. Staff are great and it's right in the village so easy to get to, food is super yummy.

The food was outstanding , the staff were friendly , the ambience was a sight to behold , kudos to Jay, Ali and Lena. The food was so good that my husband finished his food this time . I had Adana kebab while my hubby had burger wheat with salmon. And the cocktail Pina colada was just perfect. We plan going again and again. No regrets .

We visited for our 10 year wedding anniversary and had a wonderful time. The food was incredible and the service was excellent. Cannot recommend enough.

Nice food and good service, dog friendly outside only, it was a nice summers evening so our luck was in. Good vegan options.

Cozy atmosphere, nice food and very good portion sizes.

Great food, definitely would recommend the mix grill

Always excellent ! Fantastic food, service, atmosphere and lovely staff. I love every visit and it never fails to impress.

I’ve dined at The Med Kitchen several times, and each visit has been nothing short of delightful. The quality of the food is consistently outstanding, with authentic Mediterranean flavours that never fail to impress. The portions are generous, ensuring each meal is both satisfying and delicious. The service is another aspect that truly shines. The waitstaff are always attentive and professional, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere. I would like to particularly commend Neco, Memo, and Ali, who have gone above and beyond to provide exceptional service every time I've visited. Their dedication and friendliness are remarkable, making each dining experience at The Med Kitchen truly enjoyable. I will certainly continue to return.

Superb food and very friendly staff. They happily catered for a party of 10. Highly recommended!

The food was very nice it was worth the money. Would go again.

absolutely brilliant ! from starters to desserts we enjoyed having dinner here. the ambience is really pleasant, especially since the interior is immaculately gorgeous🤩 the menu also has many many choices, therefore i struggled to pick just one haha!! however the salmon i ordered is so delicious, i would recommend it to anyone. and i must mention the staff as they are highly attentive & caring, constantly offering great service - thank you very much for making our visit highly enjoyable x

What a fab place to celebrate a birthday, we had a great table to enjoy the evening sunshine. Very attentive service and lush food. Thank you to all the team I had a lovely birthday.

Good quality food at decent prices. Had the lunch menu.

1st time .... little gem of a restaurant. Will defo go again with my family.. Staff are very welcoming and attentive... Like the way they make sure your are enjoying your food, ensuring your time with them is a good 1

Very tasty food. We had a sharing platter for 2 but easily fed 4. The staff were very attentive and good for a laugh. Would definitely recommend this place

Lovely meal with my family to celebrate my daughter’s birthday. Food great, lunch menu good value and impeccable service by Jay. Thoroughly recommend!

Friendly staff. The food is fresh and nice. Tapas are quite filling.

We love the food and staff at Med Kitchen. Special thanks to Jay who always looks after us so brilliantly. So lucky to have Med and the Med team as our local restaurant. It is and they are the best!

We visited The Med Kitchen last night with our family to celebrate our eldest daughters birthday. We are currently visiting from Australia & the restaurant was highly recommended to us. Straight away the restaurant was inviting. We were welcomed by the staff like we were old friends. We had a variety of starters (bread, hummus, garlic Mushrooms & haloumi) which were all delicious (& very moreish!). We chose different mains so that we could try a few dishes because it was hard to choose what to order. The servings were generous so sharing was easy. The kids menu not only covered the usual nugget & chips, but also turkish options just in a smaller serving size. Perfect for kids that enjoy trying new foods. Towards the end of our night the restaurant erupted into singing Happy Birthday to our daughter - with Jay bringing out an amazing dessert especially for her complete with candles. We had hoped for a nice birthday dinner & The Med Kitchen went so far beyond our expectations. Incredible food, amazing customer service. We will definitely be back to the restaurant (hopefully on this trip! But definitely next time we travel over).

First visit and very impressed by warm welcome, nice decor and pleasant ambience. Service efficient and friendly, nice food - both meat and fish cooked well - and a choice of chips aswell as rice! Efes 50cl always enjoyable. Went Saturday night, and seemed to be two sittings, 6pm (totally full) and 8.15pm, so no chance of a long stay over coffee ! Highly recommended.

Lovely as always, host extended our table booking and waiting staff were very attentive.

Visited last night for our anniversary meal. Jay and the team provided excellent service. The food was great, exactly as explained in the menu. It can get a bit noisy but that adds to the atmosphere in my opinion. Will be back, this is my new favourite restaurant.

Really enjoyed our visit here! The staff are very welcoming and friendly, kept checking in on us throughout our meal which was really lovely. The food and cocktails were delicious and reasonably priced, I recommend the King Prawn Garlic Butter to anyone who likes prawns, absolute delicious and I found myself ordering it again the next day (for takeaway though, because I was a bit embarassed lol). The cocktails were so tasty, we ended up spending around £35 per person for starters, mains and cocktails so really reasonable! Definitely recommend!

Always the best place to have food . Every dish is outstanding. Excellent customer service . They go an extra mile to ensure your comfort and experience

I love this place... food is delicious 😋 although I would like to see creme brulee on the desert menu. Friendly, attentive staff & a lovely atmosphere. Would recommend 👌

We enjoyed our dinner, delicious food and drinks. Will come back again soon.

Low score is for the extremely poor service at this restaurant. Food is lovely though. Every time I have been here could have sat all day waiting for service. Almost like the waiters here are doing you a favour by taking your order. Not made to feel welcome

Went there to have lunch and to sit outside (was a nice afternoon) but they wouldn't seat me outside because I would have been too near someone seated inside near the window. Why bother with the outside seating area!?

Good choice of Mediterranean dishes, food is always plentifu

Yummy food and generous portions! First visit but surely won't be last. Prawns dishes r brill

Consistently good food, reasonably priced.

We love Med Kitchen! The food is delicious, the portions are huge, the staff are attentive and friendly. Nothing is too much for them. The restaurant itself has a lovely ambience. They made an effort for my birthday too with a candle, etc.

have dined here on multiple occasions and the food is always super delish! always a nice ambience and the staff are very welcoming. service from ali today was great, he was so kind and attentive. thank you :)

This is my favourite restaurant. The food is out of this World, no matter what you order. The menu is full of delicious, fresh, healthy choices. The waiters greet you like a long lost friend and you are made to feel very welcome. Even the free olives are delicious!!

Good food , brilliant flavour. And kind staff , would recommend . Had the mixed grill .

We were very welcomed to the restaurant as a family. the service was great. the food was excellent taste and presentation.

Brilliant place in Sanderstead. The environment was very good, only to be topped up by the excellent food. Ali was great with his service as well. Well recommended.

Excellent food and service . Ali was excellent and took great care of us .. Definitely a must go !!!

Atmosphere really depends on the time of day. I have tried three different times just to see if the food would come out at the same high standards. Service has been 10/10 so far. Talking from someone who extremely fussy and a fully qualified chef. Clean, very friendly and on point!! (Ali ) and the rest of the MED staff have managed to look after myself, friends and family this week celebrating birthdays. Food cooked to perfection . There was no need to add extra seasoning due to the different flavours….thank you @MED

Wonderful food, wonderful service, wonderful atmosphere. Love this place!

The most relaxed meal I've had! Didn't feel rushed (quiet Monday lunctime) and it was really pleasant; Staff were also relaxed and friendly. Lentil soup was delicious!

The food was amazing. The service was Very good and waiter's was all ways around to service you

WOW WOW WOW These guys know there way around flavours, everything i ordered tickled my stomach in a very pleasant way, I ordered sword fish with chips and salad which was amazing 👏 my friend ordered the chicken which was wry succulent, the olive 🫒 were the best ever, mushrooms were the best ever, customer service was very good. Thank you for the beautiful experience guys.

Amazing food, staff are fantastic If I could rate more than 5 🌟 I would have given it. I keep going back ❤️❤️❤️

Great food, super big portions, good service, nice atmosphere

Had a lovely evening with my sisters. We were warmly welcomed and our server, Ali, was friendly and attentive. The food was hot and delicious (the choice amazing) and the ambience buzzing!. Already looking forward to a return visit!! Highly recommend !!

Food is excellent and portions are very big, take a very good appetite.

We've been to this place for several occasions. Birthdays mainly but have always rec'd 5* service. Highly recommend

It's a very nice place, I recommend you to try it.

"I recently dined at The Med and was thoroughly impressed by both the food and the staff. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with warmth and professionalism. The atmosphere was inviting and set the perfect tone for the evening. Thank you.

The restaurant felt vibrant and lively and was decorated stylishly. All the staff were friendly and courteous and the meal was absolutely delicious. It was a great experience!"

The food is delicious, Great service all the staff so lovely especially our waiter Jay ! Would definitely recommend !

Very good food I got lamb cutlets, cooked to perfection soft and juicy. Servers very kind would 100 percent come back

Great evening lovely food and service thanks guys

Never had a bad meal here and last night was no exception, quality food, lovely staff and good value. Pete and Amanda

Fantastic service cosy environment Wonderful food

The lunch menu is excellent. Great choice, good value and cooked to perfection.

Great food and good service. Varied menu of traditional Turkish food. Very reasonable prices too. Nice and clean and very friendly staff

The lamb cutlets are fantastic.

I was there for a birthday party with friends. The food was fabulous and the service was amazing! They served my birthday cake with candles and music! Special shoutout to our fantastic waiter Jay who was a great server for us!

Fantastic night at Med Kitchen celebrating the New Year ! Fabulous food and great service ! Belly dancer and singer Gemma Dee got the party started ! My friends and I loved it ! Happy 2024 !

This restaurant is consistently outstanding in the execution of its food and I know that if I want a good meal, then coming here will always ensure this. I recently came here with my friend and tried their new garlic butter prawn dish which was beautiful - my new favourite. My friend always enjoys her food here and loved her prawn and salmon kebab skewers. The portions are ample here - so much so that I’ve yet to try their desserts….hopefully one day.. I also noticed that they’ve added a few new dishes to their menu and it made a nice change. I will definitely come back.
