Even after two decades, they’re “constantly looking for ways to improve the menu” at this “good-value” staple – an attractive Continental brasserie in Jericho. The “eclectic” cooking tips its hat to the Mediterranean and “never disappoints” (“bring anyone and they will enjoy the meal”). Further joys include a “great deli” and expanded outdoor seating; as we went to press, they were finally due to open five long-awaited bedrooms, rounding out the package.

“You really feel like you’re in a continental bistro” at this “good-value and ever-reliable venue” in Jericho which has been popular for two decades. There is extra outdoor seating nowadays, which adds further to the Mediterranean atmosphere, and this year will see the opening of five bedrooms.

A “Jericho gem” for almost two decades, with “imaginative menus, excellent service and good outdoor space, including a recently expanded garden area”. “Italian-inspired cooking and a relaxed atmosphere make this a great location for families, with lunchtimes as good as evenings for ambience”“my son far prefers the pizzas here to any you might get from a chain”.

A Jericho stalwart for more than 15 years – this “local Italian is always buzzing and reliable” for light lunches as well as more substantial meals. It now has a deli next door, and a garden terrace for al fresco summer dining.

For 33 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).
