The best restaurants in Lewisham London

Used to love this place and considered it a hidden gem and would pick up or order takeaways every few weeks. One time I was put off all their pizzas because the 2 I ordered both came covered in a bitter oily substance - likely a rancid oil, and one of them tasted suspiciously fishy even though it wasn’t meant to have any fish on it. Then I kept ordering only their risottos which I still enjoyed, but the last time I ordered the dish which cost over £10 came all oily and disgusting too, so I had to abandon this place altogether. Not sure how the quality of the food dropped so dramatically but it was very disappointing.

Outstanding food and service, great choice of menu and the customer service could not be faulted. I would highly recommend this restaurant for a great evening out.

We were in London for the Peter Kay gig and staying at the Hilton. We needed a bite before heading to the O2 and this place had good reviews. The greeting was lovely and friendly but at first we were disappointed that there wasn’t many pasta dishes to choose from. We were going to leave but the wonderful waitress convinced us that the Pizza was delicious and boy was she right!! We had bruschetta and burrata as our starters and pizza for main washed down with pecorino wine. Everything was superb. This restaurant deserves all the great reviews it has received. The place is neat and tidy with a lovely atmosphere and great staff. Well done.

I have been to a fair few restaurants in my time but I was utterly blown away by this place. The food. The atmosphere and the service you could not fault. My girlfriend and I went all out and got the grande set menu and we didn’t regret it. Some people have mentioned the price is steep but when you can BYOB and get as many refills as you want AND take what you can’t finish home it really is very well priced for such great quality food. What can normally fall short where there is great food…is the service and atmosphere. From the moment we arrived, we felt relaxed, well informed and the whole experience allowed us to engage with the staff like we had known them for ages. The mighty duo were the wonderful Cassidy and Alanah. They were attentive, they made us hungry, they made us laugh they simply were the best front of house staff I have ever experienced in a restaurant. The whole experience was so special I went back a week later with my brother and sister who also could not stop praising the wonderful experience they had. So it’s proof that this was not a one off experience. So if you haven’t been. Go! NOTE. Try and save space for the Mango Sorbet and their own Amrutha Tea to wash it all down with. A massive thank you to everyone at Amrutha Honor Oak including the chefs outback making such tasty dishes!

After walking past Sim's several times, we finally 'took the plunge' and went in - we are so happy we did. Amazing steaks, great value - even if the decor is a little dated, it's still a great meal and saves you having to go intro central London and pay double

This really is an excellent place for brunch or lunch in Deptford. Although you may have to wait for a table it’s worth it. The staff are charming and helpful. My one small gripe would be that the food could have been hotter- the consequence of trying to do a lot of covers from a small kitchen I think. None the less a standout place.

I really wish you didn’t close down! I miss your food. This place had the best vegan burgers in London by far, the service was great too.

Sonia’s food is the best! She catered for 20 people (there was enough for 30 plus!) and it was exquisite. She’s a gorgeous human who makes incredible food.

Lovely food, reasonable prices, great staff and good cocktails! We had a brilliant evening and will definitely be back. The sea bass was unreal!

Love to visit this cafe when I’m in the area visiting my family. Great food and drink at very reasonable prices in a relaxed atmosphere and lovely staff who always make a fuss of my grandaughter. A real community gem.

Pretensious, food fine for dining in the restaurant, so long as 1 you have a smart phone for QR code, and hope it works 2 get used to wine decanted and no labels! 3 use fingers to eat steak as wooden fork not feasible 4 you can pay by card but each time everything that is served (frustrating) no table tab

Nunca doy un 5 por un asado ya que siempre los encuentro para que no duren como los alimentos caseros. . . . ¡hasta hoy! Pub encantador, gente encantadora y el personal amable y el asado era delicioso - tuve asado de nuez y fácilmente el mejor que he probado! No vamos a las papas jajaja, a todas nos encantan las papas asadas caseras y esto es lo que obtuve. Yum Yum ? Sólo negativo. . . . bueno no hay un jajaja El menú se ve bien con muchas opciones para comedores de carne, vegetarianos y veganos. Estoy deseando que llegue mi próxima visita!

This is a top shawarma meal. Had spicey rice all the trimmings. Everything tasted great and with a drink it was a top meal for less than a tenner. They have good fiver lunch deals here and the guy running it does a good job. Great food, service and price. That’ll do.

Every so often you stumble upon excellence. This italian resturant is mystery. This chef has it all the culinary skills matched with exceptional customer service. As you sit down you are transported to Italy! The pasta is fresh and every dish is seasoned to perfection. I was there on Thursday and had to go again for Fathers day. I jave not eaten at the same restaurant twice in one week in 10 years. This restaurant is mouthwatering...

Este salón de té se encuentra dentro del clubhouse financiado por la lotería Newish para Lewisham Tigers JFC pero, ubicado en la esquina de un espacio verde vallado con jardín comunitario, este es un lugar encantador para venir en cualquier momento con los niños. Hay una gran variedad de comidas y bebidas, y el servicio es personal y amable. ¿Que es no gustar?
