This place is amazing! It serves real and proper kosher fare just like gran used to make! The portions are huge and there's always been a queue whenever I've been there so they must be doing something right! By far the best salt beef in town!!!

The best kosher restaurant I've ever been to. Excellent food and very friendly and helpful staff. The owners are very pleasant people and always welcome you with a smile.

Fully recommended to everyone :)

A group of 15 of us ate at Reubens recently having not been for ages and we all very much enjoyed the food - the portions were enormous and the service wsa very efficient - we would definitely go back for more (and some of us are quite fussy).

Having read mixed reviews about this restaurant, we thought we would give it a try- and boy did we regret it. What we thought would be a lovely place to celebrate our 25 wedding anniversary turned out to be a nightmare. The orders were all mixed up, the food was disgusting, the service and hospitality of the owner was outrageous. All I can say to those that like the place, either you’re staff of the place or you’ve never been to a restaurant. Utterly revolting place you just lost 12 potential future customers

Our recent visit to Reubins was not the first, and again we found the food and atmosphere excellent. We ate downstairs, as our group preferred the quieter ambience in order to converse. The service was excellent and discrete; the waiter was not pushy, offering plain (tap) water rather than an expensive bottled alternative, which came with lemon, as well as a modestly priced but excellent Israeli wine. He was attentive and some mind-changing during orders did not bother him; nor did he strongly push deserts on our group which had already dined to excess on the generous portions. The bean and barley soup was divine, the meat cooked as ordered and the only lacuna was the unavailability of fish which was apparently on the menu. The bill was appropriate for a Kosher restaurant, while the food was above the usual standard for such places. We will certainly return!

This has to be one of the worst places to have a meal. Rude, expensive and deceiving, not only over priced but also charged extra for portions not received. If Mcdonalds was a kosher restaurant it would be 5 stars compared to this. Will never go there again and will never recommend it to anyone. Don't waste your time and money here.

The chocolate mousse is to die for - which is just as well . . .

I have found the staff remarkably courteous given the rudeness of some of the people I have been in with!

Atmosphere - dark and hostile. Rude staff either ignoring you or shouting on the phone.

Food - sparse portions of not particularly tasty food, Salt beef tasted like cheap corn beef and bread was stale.

Prices - joke! £8 for a tiny sandwich.

Never again!

what the bloggers say

Cheese and Biscuits

Cheese and Biscuits - 7/10

Friday, March 27, 2009 - Reubens has a trick up its sleeve - it claims to be the only kosher restaurant in the West End, its specialities include home salted beef, house chicken soup and Lockshen pudding, and its clientele, judging by my visit yesterday lunchtime, are almost entirely sombrely-dressed Jewish men… It is a very pleasant surprise that after the best part of five years living in London there are still food cultures and traditions that go largely ignored by the rest of the city. Reubens…deserves to be on he list of anyone around these parts who want a tasty, hearty lunch for not much money.
