Streatham Kitchen — Restaurant in London

what started as a journey back to London to see a friend, turned into a culinary journey that I haven't experienced since visiting South America.

Everything about this restaurant is planned exquisitely, even down to the finest details in the decor.

I started with drinks at the bar before the restaurant got too busy (as it does every day let alone a Friday). Whilst at the bar I was presented with a starter of Spanish ham croquettes which would not be out of place on any of the cities michellin tasting menus. A velvety smooth béchamel encased in a crispy coating, paired with a perfectly balanced aioli and crispy, salty Spanish cured ham.

The second course had to be the Bavette steak. Cooked to a perfect medium rare accompanied by the most authentic chimmichurri I have tasted outside of South America. Just the right amount of rosemary on the chips, perfectly seasoned pico de gallo, a surprising pop of pomegranate in the accompanying salad. All in all, one of the best steaks I have eaten in many years of dining around the world and when paired with 14% cabernet sauvignon, two were like a perfect marriage.

To finish I could not turn down the chocolate brownie which, was that good, i stopped taking notes whilst eating it and was pulled back to cooking at home growing up. Simply one of the brownies I have ever eaten with the only let down being the salt content in the Dulce de leche ice-cream tends to result on a quick melt. I actually found myself have a little emotional moment whilst eating this dessert and I would happily return just for that.

I lived in London for over 30 years and I never knew that such a gem existed. I challenge anyone to find me a 3 course meal of this quality in London for under £40 (drinks excluded) as the 3 courses I had came to £37.74 before drinks and a grand total of £90 with wine, beer, tequila, rum and the 3 course meal and service which as you will see by the photos were worth every penny and I will be returning very soon to sample more of the menu Thank you Ka Hou

The BBQ chicken wings were Delicious with a perfect blend of sweet, spicy and sour. Melt in the mouth tender but not falling apart, was very nicely presented and complimentary which is really nice of the Chef Ka. The barbecue sauce on the wings was not overpowering and very balanced, sesame seeds on top gives it a slightly nutty test. All in all an amazing experience.

Service was exceptional. I had a slightly unpleasant experience with the delivery previously but the chef was very kind to respond immediately to the review and offered to refund but I decided to go in and give them another chance as I didn’t think that the delivery is the best way to determine the taste and quality and experience the food like it’s intended by the chef and I am really glad I decided to go today. Almost all of the meat is halal except the chorizos but do...

I was super excited to come to this restaurant as someone friends recommended it to us before and today we went to a friends birthday. I was extremely disappointed because my expectations were really high specially when the restaurant has 4.9 stars. The staff definitely needs some training as the service we received was shocking. First we were waiting for glasses to drink our sangria for a good ten minutes, then we ordered started and main and we were missing one of the starters we then said that it was fine because the lady that brought the starters to us insinuated it was our fault and stated she only had one in the ticket even thought the other guy who took the order double checked it. Then it was time for the mains everything came out apart for our food which he said was coming in a few minutes, we received our food after 45 minutes not only that but no one came to apologise to us and they didn’t even realised we were missing food. Which makes me think they were only focusing on cleaning and closing instead of taken care of the only customers in the restaurant. When my other friends were eating some people came and at that point we were told not to laugh for no reason. They got their food first so we were definitely forgotten and highlighted it to the guy. He was joking around and we didn’t even get a proper apology. The lady there was really rude and was very clear to all of us that she didn’t want to be there and that was really off putting. I don’t recommend this restaurant at all unless you want to be...
