Best Casual Restaurants in Leytonstone

Really great food - everything we ate was excellent. However, the service was not as good as I had hoped - we had booked for a special occasion, but felt disappointed this was not acknowledged across the evening. We were originally sat at a table right by the door which felt like an odd choice given they knew we were there for a birthday, however we were moved to a nicer area which was appreciated. However, after we moved, we had to flag down waiters to order more drinks and ask for desserts. It felt a bit like they wanted us to leave by the end. Besides the service, the ambience was great and the food really was good. I hope the service would be better on a next visit.

Super delicious. Lovely staff. Great energy. Will be back soon. The nduja lasagna was insane !!

Amazing chateaubriand. Service lovely too. Definitely recommend.

We had the tasting menu with wine pairings and thoroughly enjoyed the night. The overall feel was casual but the level of service made the evening special. The wine pairings in particular were all super interesting choices with interesting tidbits about of the wine makers given with each glass. Would highly reccomend for a special dinner.

Great food, great service. I’ve been in plimsoll before because their burger. I couldn’t come back with some friends to let them try it too. We got 5 burgers but at the end we ordered 3 more with extra cheese and at the end they were even better. My friend was looking for bacon but for me the crunchiness of meat was enough. Very good balance of flavours. I tried many burgers but probably this is the best in London. I was a bit sad realising they removed the green salad with walnuts from the menu cuz it was really good but I understand can be because the seasonal changes etc. Another must to try are the potatoes with aioli. We also got other dishes but I would say these 2 were the best. The pub was full but the service was fast. The kitchen is not big but they are very organised. Same with table service, we had some requests and the blonde girl who served us was really nice and patient haha I forgot to asked her name for the mention Overall a great experience! Thank you guys!
