Mekong

We have been loads of times, whenever we are staying nearby. It is somewhere we always look forward to eating at - used as we are to endless 'chain-restaurants' where we live, this is a great example of an individual and quirky little London restaurant. The food is tasty, possibly a bit on the salty side, but has great flavours and is served with charm and efficiency. Many of the tables are obviously taken by regular patrons.

The decoration is simple but atmospheric as it is usually pretty full, even on a Sunday night. The room temperature was a little on the cold side and the service was a little strange although that seems to be part of the character of the place. The food was good and served quickly.

The only reason I can think of to ward people away from this restaurant is because I want a table! Every time I've been people (without bookings) have had to be turned away through lack of space... you may have to wait a few minutes, but usually not too long, if you arrive at a busy time without a booking (not sure if they take bookings tho!)

Food is good, not amazing, service is very good. The best thing about the place is the value, you can have a good meal for relatively little.

Cosy Vietnamese restaurant. Excellent food (I had prawn toast with plum sauce, followed by Saigon style noodles - both delicious and served extremely hot), accompanied by Halida, Vietnamese beer. Very fast service, and good value (£30 for 2 people, relatively cheap for this part of town).

The great thing about this place is the informal setting. This is a regular haunt for my friends and I - we usually indulge over the saigon feast, a four course meal at the bargain price of £15, while we catch up and gossip. Don't be afraid to get your hands dirty, and dig into the wrap and rolls! The owners are a super friendly couple too, who make an effort to get to know their regular customers.
