The best restaurants in North Oxford South East

Went for a saturday happy hour and stayed a bit longer! During the happy hour it was very busy but it felt much more nicer after the hours went and the dimmed lights were lovely! Got two cocktails one that was short and one long (tipsy tea) and like them both but felt there were too much ice in both of them. The staff were lovely and the price of the cocktails were very nice!! The only issue was the music was sooo loud that a lot of us had to yell at each other and that was not the best. Also having some snacks would improve it too.

Proper nice! Quaint, quiet, and cool 😎

Jee Saheb is a regular haunt for us on a Friday evening. Always very welcoming and relaxing and brilliant curry. A great way to start the weekend

Our first visit but we will definitely return. A really friendly venue and staff with excellent food. Highly recommend visiting if you enjoy Spanish cuisine.

Enjoyed my dinner here! The katsus were really nice and since my friend and I don’t consume mirin, the restaurant kindly replaced the sushi rice with normal rice. The hojicha tea is great and the black sesame mochi too! Will come back to try the donburis. Service was super quick and warm, all the staffs were helpful and attentive.

This is a really nice pub, comfy and friendly and of course with a great vegetarian/vegan menu. We love to pop in when we're visiting Oxford.

Excellent food and great service by Alex. He deserves recognition for his personal caring wait service. Rib eye was cooked perfectly. Alex even hailed us a cab! Thanks Alex!!

I booked their private room, which is advertised as being able to accommodate 16. We had 15. And though I suggested to inspect the room beforehand, they countered with the suggestion I can see it on the day of the event; and half an hour before guests were due to arrive. I was advised they would coordinate seating arrangements and I provided these arrangements well ahead of time. On the day, I arrived to find no seating arrangements and the table layout completely different to earlier indications. The room was too small to have a holding area for pre-dinner drinks, a fact not clearly communicated. Also, the service fell far short of what I thought I might expect. And though I provided feedback without asking for any compensation, the restaurant - rather than taking it on board - countered suggesting I was mistaken in my perception of their service standards. This is incredibly disappointing for the kind of establishment they suggest they are on their various media sites. I would not recommend their private dining option for any discerning hosts who are keen on making sure their guests are well looked after.

I go here for coffee on my way home from work, even though it takes longer to do so. This is because the staff are so warm and friendly, I always leave feeling happy. Excellent place, and lovely biscuits!

Did not clear 4th setting on 3 person table. Slow service. Food very good. Servers not trained to restaurant standards though nice people. Food best element.

Such an enjoyable lunch, enhanced by excellent service and the most delightful food... of course the superb wine selection available as a glass, large glass, carafe and bottle helped. Fantastic experience which I would recommend to anyone looking for something done differently and extremely well.

This is my favorite Japanese in Oxford with authentic Japanese Dashi taste. The owner is Japanese with very popular with local residents. You have better book a table if you want to dine on Friday or Saturday. I went to Saturday night and a couple of people for walk-ins were unable to get tables.

Great place to sit, if only one could. Takeaway only STILL after the pandemic. Time now to open properly.

We were served by strange, unfriendly, rattled staff who seemed intent on being miserable, athletically removing and replacing cutlery, reprimanding us and serving oddly delicious, yet tough Sunday roast. No matter, our trip to Oxford was thoroughly enjoyable but this place was a big disappointment.

Really great experience on Friday night. Cheerful, attentive service, delicious selection of tasty food. Wine was good but quite expensive. Tiramisu was particularly good but we enjoyed all of the food. Restaurant seemed to thin out relatively early.
