Best Authentic Restaurants in London

A lovely tapas bar right in the middle of Soho, staff are great, warm friendly welcome. Food good - my one issue was the music, it’s unbelievably bad 😂 literally Black Sabbath- in a tapas bar in Soho ?! It doesn’t make any sense! Then U2 Sunday Bloody Sunday - I actually like that song but it’s just totally out of kilter with the place! Apart from that all really good!

Today was my dad's 85th birthday, and one guest had travelled from Swansea just to join us for lunch. Having tried three times previously to dine here and always being turned away at 12pm, I was delighted that they had introduced a booking system. We ordered 2 small plates and 4 main meals which was too much for us. But we really enjoyed eating everything and it was almost like being back in Singapore. My parents didn't have anything negative to say. We have Nasi Lemak in other places so this seemed slightly above average. But the Char Kway Teo and Bak Chor Mee were much better than other places and we've not found anywhere else that has Bak Chor Mee which is one of my dad's favourites. The wonton mee was probably the least popular but our English friend seemed to really enjoy it so it was a success too. The waitress that served us was very friendly and very obliging taking photos a few times. I believe the manager also came over to speak to my parents and they joked saying he should open the door early when it's cold outside, even if they don't actually start serving so maybe we'll see that in December as we have a good friend arriving from Singapore to spend December in London and he is aware of this restaurant via The Straits Times.

We have eaten here several times over the years. The experience is always very good - excellent service, buzzy atmosphere and wonderful food.

We had a group of 14, and the staff did a fabulous job! We filled the entire restaurant with the best service, and the food and drinks were fresh, homemade, and delicious! I'd recommend Bocconcino to anyone who enjoys seafood and Italian!

Amazing service and cute staffs. The signature duck is definitely worth to try. Good place to celebrate birthday
