1. Roz ana
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 454 reviews
Roz ana specialises in regional Indian cuisine. Prepared by world-class chefs from all over India and some of the best West End restaurants. Only the highest quality ingredients and spices are used to create dishes (many are gluten free) the way they are made across the many regions of India; but lighter and hence, healthier. Delicious food; complimented by hand picked wines, cocktails, cool music, friendly service, all in a smart comfortable setting. This makes the Roz ana experience. Located at the bottom of Kingston Hill, near Kingston Hospital, Richmond Park, and Norbiton Railway Station; 0.5 miles from the town centre; just 10 minutes drive from Teddington, Richmond, Surbiton, Wimbledon and Putney.

Don't be fooled - this is no standard curry house, this is proper regional Indian food cooked by a group of chefs who know exactly what they're doing. We come here about once a month to take advantage of the changing specials menu in which...MoreYou are very kind. Thank you for your recommendation.
2. Cappadocia
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 716 reviews
We started out in Kingston in 2001 and opened our Walton restaurant in June 2014. Our owner, executive chef, and many of our staff are Turkish and they have proudly drawn on their heritage to create a little corner of Turkey in the UK. Our food is cooked by chefs who were brought up with traditional Turkish cooking and who have been trained to the highest standards in Istanbul. We want you to enjoy the true taste of Turkey so the interiors of both restaurants are designed with Turkish decor. And all food is served in authentic Turkish cooking utensils such as clay pots. THE ORIGINS OF OUR NAME According to ancient history, Cappadocia was the birthplace of St George. It means "the land of beautiful horses and was an extensive inland district of Asia Minor, which is now modern Turkey. The first settlers built their homes into stone cliffs and burrowed their cities underground. Today tourists are drawn to Cappadocia by its unusual scenery, and of course to stay in a cave hotel.

What a pity, but I guess they are the victim of their own success. Because the food is awesome (as far as a kebab restaurant in concerned) the service has gone down hill. It's not a terrible service, but Turkish restaurants are famed for their service and Cappadocia used to be like that.
On this occasion , we struggled to get the attention of the waiters and despite telling them that we are celebrating 50th Birthday when we booked, they completely forgot about it when we arrived. They usually play happy birthday and bring a small dessert with candle, my wife said that we should mention, but the moment was ruined, so we left dissappointed.
The waiters were more interested at the end to pick up the tip we left for the only girl that was hard working and nice to us.
Otherwise, the food is lovely but don't have high expectations of great service.

We had the upstairs as a Private Dining on Saturday 4th March. Celebrating Auntie Sylvia's 80th Birthday. The whole event was amazing from beginning to end. Food was wonderful. Everyone had very tasty dishes . The food was scrumptious. The young lady who served us, I'm sorry I can no longer recall your name was absolutely fabulous. Attentive and very friendly. A real credit to the restaurant.
I will definitely return again and will recommend your delightful restaurant to everyone . Thank you

Positano is an Italian Restaurant in the heart of Surbiton, and we hope we’ll be your home away from home. Whether you’re coming in with friends for a comforting bowl of pasta, a big beautiful hand made pizza, and a glass of red, or celebrating your birthday with cake and limoncello, we’d love to welcome you in.

What a great find this restaurant was!
We went on Saturday night for my daughter-in-law's birthday.
They have recently moved into the area and we were looking for somewhere local and I found Positano. I am so glad I did.
We booked in advance (which I am sure is advisable as they were busy). When we arrived we were so warmly welcomed, it was as if we were regulars, not first time customers!
The menu is quite extensive with a good mix of dishes, and there is a daily specials board.
The food is delicious - as good as any meal I have had in Italy, and the hot dishes are served HOT! Not just slightly hot but very hot - a real bonus as so often things are kept warm and aren't really hot when served.
Between the 6 of us we had a selection of starters, mains and desserts and we all thought they were amazing.
We could not fault any of the staff who were friendly, but not pushy. We were not rushed, and spent a very pleasant evening chatting together in a very nice restaurant.
(I would like to point out that they never tried to get anyone to drink alcohol as stated by one rather grumpy reviewer. In fact they respected our wishes on our drink choices. My daughter-in-law is pregnant and they never tried to get her to drink anything alcoholic.)
Thank you to all at Positano for making our Saturday night out so enjoyable. We will be back, as I am sure will my son and daughter-in-law. You are so friendly and made us feel so welcome.

Family run Italian restaurant since 2005. Serving pizza, pasta as well as ever changing daily fish & meat specials.
Reviewed By Sierra165 - London
Booked a table for 2 on a busy Saturday evening. It was our first visit, and we were encouraged by the positive reviews.
The first thing that strikes you as you enter is how cramped the place is. They really have chosen quantity over quality in terms of floor space usage. The second thing you notice is how noisy it is. This is partly due to the number of tables crammed in, and the general acoustics of the building. The combination of these two factors plus the fact that you’ll be sitting inches away from fellow diners rules out any possibility of a romantic dinner, or being able to have a decent conversation over your meal.
The food was average. Mussels as a starter were bland and rather undersized. Seafood risotto as a main needed seasoning and presentation was rather poor.
Staff were pleasant, and competent.
Won’t be returning, mostly due to the utter lack of any charm, ambiance or character about this place. It could be vastly improved by getting rid of a few tables and reorganising the floor space, and allowing diners to relax and enjoy their meal in comfort and relative privacy. Right now it seems it’s all about cramming as many bums on seats as possible.

This is my third time visiting Al Forno New Malden and every visit has been a pleasure. This time I took my family for a Sunday lunch meal, and they were very impressed.
The staff are always pleasant and happy to help, and the manager/owner(?) always greets you personally. Orders were taken quickly, and the staff are happy to help answer any menu queries or food requests.
We had to ask again for the olives we ordered as an entree, but the place was packed so it wasn't an issue that they had forgotten them.
I can recommend the carbonara, and my very fussy father absolutely loved his customised pizza.
The prices aren't dear, and you definitely get a high standard of food and service.

My whole family especially my little one love this place! She is always cheering whenever we are heading there. Consistently tasty food with reasonable price. Very friendly service on top of all that. Having been to many Japanese restaurants in London, Osaka is still on my favourite list. Highly recommended.

Discerning diners of Surbiton will once again have a brasserie style restaurant & wine bar at the heart of their community, serving freshly prepared food in a relaxed yet sophisticated atmosphere, with a menu that will entice and cater for all palettes. The entire building has been renovated; original features have been sympathetically restored and contemporary elements introduced, moulding together to deliver a charming and relaxed ambience.

We eat here all the time and are never disappointed. The menu changes regularly and the dishes are always thoughtfully put together.
Service is always good and the food is amazing. The only comment that a couple of our friends made was that the steaks they ordered as one of the specials were a little small. Luckily I ordered rabbit and there was loads of it so I wasn’t bothered!!

popped in before and after our Christmas lunch celebration at the French Table next door. It was the perfect complement to a great celebration lunch. The in-house micro brewery certainly makes lovely ales, we enjoyed a few of them and will be back for more!
