Mi primera visita a este café restaurante, para probar algo de comida eritrea. Buena elección de comida estándar de Londres o algo del continente africano. Amplio espacio aireado, buen servicio y muy “Caledonian Road”. Un corto viaje en autobús de Kings Cross a Story Street parada de autobús en 17 , 91 o 259 autobuses. Si te gusta encontrar gemas escondidas por Londres, prueba Sophe

This Nando’s was great, but you never know the portion size your going to get. I ordered the family sharing meal and both times the chips was a small chips. The first time I went to this nandos the chips size was great now they cut the chips down Garlic bread was not a large, so I had to order another chips separate from the family platter. Only then you could see it was a large chips. The guy in the think he’s acting manager followers his waiters , he will also come up to you and his waiter and listen to the customers then answers the customers question when the customers never approached him in the first place kinda rude. He’s always in the red shirt, kinda unhygienic. He doesn’t even smile at customers. Rest of the customers service is great but the kitchen are confused on portion size. I actually feel I’m wasting money in nandos and can get better value on the high road.

Myself and my two friends had such a wonderful time here. As usual we don't joke with my Nigerian food, and I must say we was very pleased . The experience, food and drinks were 10/10. Every one should try the lambchops and Asun !! The staffs are really helpful and friendly. Would highly recommend checking out this place.

I’ll start with positives, the food was really good. We ordered a selection of the small plates and they were all delicious. Unfortunately, great food isn’t the whole picture when running a successful restaurant. Ambience, appropriate pricing and service are of huge importance - if you just wanted tasty food you can do that at home or the many other eateries of SE19. Beginning with ambience, it was a quiet Saturday afternoon with a handful of customers, all of whom had been packed into one corner despite the place being empty. That didn’t feel very premium. With regards to service i’m afraid it was atrocious. When we walked in the manager was sitting at the bar on a laptop. When turning around to ‘greet’ us it was if they were doing us huge, begrudging, favour by condescending to allow us through the doors. Rude doesn’t do the exchange justice. It was surly beyond comprehension. The young staff they had waiting were very sweet, but inexperienced, painfully slow and mostly absent. With regard to cost it was disproportionately expensive for somewhere with zero atmosphere and awful service. As we left I still said a cherry and enthusiastic thank you, which the manager responded to by ignoring and turning their back to us. For the sake of clarity our party of 3 were all super polite, so i’m not sure what we did to incur the manager’s undisguised contempt. As far as cost is concerned it was woefully overpriced given the above. My feeling is that they are trading on the reputation of their predecessor, and expecting to succeed with zero passion or charm. Given Joanna’s couldn’t make it work after 30 years of being a superb, destination restaurant I can’t see it lasting far in to 2025. I know terrible service is pretty much the norm these days, but you have to at least show your customers a little respect.

made the mistake of following the guardian's review of this african restaurant. i always follow their culinary reviews of london's restaurants. nowhere else, to me london is the whole country (been here 20 years). i am sad to announce that the meal was a disaster! to hope that in the middle of knighsbridge a restaurant this poor could survive longer than months is a pious dream. and it has, i believe they opened in 2022. i firstly booked via opentable. only availability was at 2pm. i later called and moved it to 1pm. go figure. when we got there, us two, place was deserted. nobody, no tables taken. a nigerian waitress welcomed us in tentative english and took our coats. a harbinger of the quality of the restaurant was that she hunged the two coats behind the till's chair! i mean, if this is their cloak room then we could have simply kept them behind our own chairs. we were shown to a table and noticed straight away there were no africans in sight, all staff but one were asians. another bad sign. a nigerian restaurant served by asians?? again, we noticed that most table were prepared with the cutlery wrongly set, very often seen in african settings where staff simply has no clue on how to set it. they have no idea forks go on the left and knivs on the right! none. we then ordered: fried yam ayamase ofada stew butterfly grill seabass acqua panna btl nigerian fanta a plate with two "puff puff" came as appetisers. admittedly very good. ayamase, we asked with white rice. yes of course, they said. it came with brown rice. seabass was ok, but please remember seabass does not exist in nigerian cuisine! drinks were hard to get it wrong, nigerian fanta is not proper fanta. a totally different drink and taste but it's ok, wife tells me west africans love different sodas. all in all a disaster. we spent £70. let me finish by saying that in this postcode, where patrons are used to an extremely high level of service and quality a place like this hopefully will NOT survive and it makes you wonder how could they, no patrons on a tuesday's lunch?? no, something is very wrong here.

Nice enough place and loved the music but as bottomless brunches go it wasn't so great. Food was ok when it came, drink certainly wasn't free flowing, and they forgot to bring our desserts. Some staff were a bit sniffy but there was a good crowd in, which made the atmosphere.
