For 32 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).

"A local delight. Super knowledgeable server suggested the best dishes on the menu and he wasn't wrong. Buzzy and upbeat atmosphere added to the feeling that you were anywhere but Tooting High Street. Menu is small and simple so the food comes quickly and you are done before you know it."
