This place has undergone a mild facelift and has tables outside on the pavement. we did not book and although there were no available tables for the evening we could spend 40 minutes there just for a drink. Friendly and personable service with food now being served. It has been rejuvenated due to lockdown!
I had travelled down from Manchester for football and was staying at the Premier Inn in Canning Town. Usually when in London I seek out a pie and mash shop but I was too late for the local one so opted for this restaurant only a few minutes walk from my hotel.Rather like my team ( Manchester City) bringing on Kevin De Bruyne in the game in question--- this was a more than acceptable substitute.
The decor is the first thing that struck me -- it appears to be traditional Ukrainian-- indeed I heard a member of staff say that this was their stated aim.
First off -- order a beer. A bottle of Ukrainian beer duly arrived together with an earthenware mug for its consumption. An excellent start- if that is typically Ukrainian then I'm all for it.
For food I opted for Ukrainian borscht-- apparently a national dish-and an endangered part of Ukrainian heritage according to UNESCO !!!. It is still very much alive and kicking in this part of the East End. It was delicious and contained far more ingredients than I expected ( I was expecting little more than beetroot) It was a meal in itself -served as a very generous portion in a large earthenware bowl
Next course was pork dumplings. I wasn't sure whether these would be large like those I had eaten in the Czech Republic or more akin to Polish pierogi. They turned out to be like the latter but better than any pierogi I had eaten with a very tasty filling.
The meal was rounded off by a conversation with the lovely lady who was running the place with a male assistant.I could have stayed much longer chatting but had to leave to get to Tottenham
Thank you to all for such a fabulous meal and your superb hospitality.
I read afterwards that some of their profits were being donated to support their Ukrainians back home during the war. Even more reason to visit
Was pleasantly surprised at how lovely it was inside the restaurant, staff were helpful with dietary needs, i’d say that the food was delicious, meat was tender and superbly cooked. We enjoyed a very lovely evening with friends and family. Really glad we’ve a restaurant so close by that is such a lovely experience
Vengo varias veces a la semana - gran café, increíble selección de pasteles, tartas y galletas. Ensaladas, quiche y tostadas. La granola de fruta y yogur es particularmente buena para el desayuno. El personal es encantador y amable. Ambiente acogedor y gran lugar para reunirse con amigos o trabajar a distancia (tiene WiFi)

Un buen hallazgo, agradable restaurante en Camberwell, servicio rápido por personal agradable, y comida sabrosa, tuvimos el pollo y cordero principales que eran suficientes para los dos. Ocupado pero no demasiado ocupado
Vi las críticas así que decidí probar este lugar. Los muebles bastante básicos no proporcionaban mucho ambiente. Los curry eran bastante baratos y bien, pero extra para arroz y roti. 55 cada uno para un agua con gas y una Coca-Cola (un vaso de una botella grande abajo? ) nos sentimos demasiado caros para lo que se sentía un poco como una toma - lejos con las mesas. No hay alcohol disponible, pero puede BYO sujeto a descorche (ni idea de cuánto).
Been eating at Sundarban over the years. Never fails to produce good food and lovely friendly and efficient staff. Thought we'd try their Elvis night. We arrived early as didn't want to eat late and it worked well. As for Elvis.... Don't expect anything but a good laugh and songs you know.
Gran lugar para sándwiches. Menú limitado pero reduce el tiempo dedicado a decidir qué tener, así que es algo bueno. Gran café. Personal amable. Buena comida.
Here for a Monday business lunch. Friendly space, genuine Uyghurs running it, good food (noodles even excellent), nice milk tea. Very modern and clean feel, less folkloristic than Uyghur joints usually are - non-stuffy. Fast service, and very reasonably priced. Great venue for the Halal-and-related clientele as it's not the usual fare. Great location very near the British museum front entrance.
