I’ve been a few times now and love the food every single time! The decor/aesthetic is lovely, the menu choices are vast and there’s always a good amount of diners without it being too overcrowded. The last time I went they had opened up the outside area for Al fresco dining in good weather - nice touch. Food-wise, I’m yet to get past the Guvec. It’s soooo good! I had the Prawn Guvec the first two times I visited and branched out to the Lamb Guvec for my 3rd visit. With bulgar wheat every time. My other half has had the meat grill and my Dad’s had the prawn and salmon shish - and they’ve loved it all. Good portion sizes too. Maybe one day I will try something else other than the Guvec!

Typically quite consistently good. The food is tasty and will fill you up, the service is decent, and the atmosphere is nice. There are vegetarian and vegan options but these are quite limited. I've been a few times over the years and I don't think their menu has changed at all in this time; that's not necessarily a bad thing but it just means the same limitations are always there for vegetarians & vegans - you'll end up having to order the same things every time, and it'd be nice if there was a bit more variety.

I came for lunch today with a friend. We had the two course lunch menu, starter and main, moussaka as good as any I've had in Greece and Cyprus, better in fact as it was clearly homemade. It would be good if the two courses could be either starter and main or main and dessert. Sometimes you don't want three courses at lunchtime. I'll definitely recommend this restaurant and will definitely be back.

Great local restaurant, nice vibe. The lamb on the grill main dishes was really succulent. Most mains are over £20 but you get a really big portion. If I’m nitpicking, the starters are a bit pricey and basic for what you get e.g. few plain halloumi slices for £7.45. The chips recipe could be improved, felt a little bit supermarket. Overall it’s really good though.

Great location and very aesthetic interior. The waiter serving me was very helpful and opened the sun roof outside for me. He offered to turn the heater on too. The lunch deal is great value with quite large portions. Food was lovely but I was disappointed by the chips which tasted like frozen oven chips. The aperol however was delicious and very generous in size.

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."

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.

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

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.

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.

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).
