Vina Kitchen in City of London, Westminster

Freshly-cooked, tasty and very affordable food with all the flavours and textures one could hope for from a Vietnamese eating experience. Quite simply, this is the best Vietnamese food we've found in London. The décor of the restaurant itself is charmingly and idiosyncratically modern and stylish, but they also do takeaway and delivery. Our experience is that their take-away food travels well. Sadly, they don't have an online presence as yet - perhaps it's beyond the capacity of this small, friendly local family business to put together in the short time they've been open. They also do private parties with karaoke. Vina Kitchen is located on the junction of the A10, Lordship Lane, Westbury Avenue and Downhills Way, no more than 5 minutes on any of a number of buses from Turnpike Lane or Wood Green tube stations (get off at the Lordship Lane/Westbury Avenue or Granville Road stops). Pay parking is available outside the Sainsbury's on the corner and in a few other nearby streets, but parking is otherwise limited unless you have a local residents' parking permit. Vina Kitchen describe themselves as 'The Authentic Vietnamese Restaurant and Take Away'; to that strapline we would add 'modern', 'excellent' and 'well worth seeking out'. Enjoy!
