   Good food, well served, nice vibes. But it was early, so it may have been louder later on

   I booked Lussman’s for the first time for my husband’s birthday and it exceeded expectations. The food was fresh and delicious. The four of us each had a different dish and every one was cooked to perfection. The service, too was outstanding. Our waiter was attentive and friendly to the point that he even noticed when our tap water jug was empty and promptly replaced it (3 times!) without having to be asked. When he discovered it was my husband’s birthday, he brought out a bowl of ice cream with a candle as my husband hadn’t ordered desert. That’s service above and beyond, and he’s clearly not a glory hunter as he tried to refuse the extra tip and didn’t give us his name! We eat out a lot and found it extremely good value as well. I can’t recommend it more highly.

   What a lovely lunch with friends! The food was delicious, the service was excellent and the setting was great. How lovely to have a branch of Lussmans in Highgate.

   Delicious food and a menu that changes seasonally to keep things fresh. Great staff too and dog friendly at the front of the restaurant.

   Lussmanns Highgate is a delightful, well appointed and comfortable restaurant, occupying a spacious venue along the village High Street (just across from a main entrance to Waterlow Park) which has housed several successful predecessor restaurants during my 40 years as a local resident. It has a varied and very inviting menu stressing an emphasis on British sourced suppliers. The menu seems to incorporate new offerings and specials every two or so weeks. I have now been to Lussmanns twice for dinners with friends and on each occasion my guests and I have been very happy with the very good quality of the courses/preparation. The staff have always been very welcoming, pleasant and attentive. The ambience is modern and warm in a setting perfectly suited to casual dining - albeit of a high standard (this is no mere cafe!). IMO it also offers alternative space (particularly at the upper level at the rear) which could be configured for private events or perhaps a more formal dining experience. I have actually also visited Lussmanns for a coffee & pastry 'catch-up' with local friends, served at the front of the restaurant which fronts onto the street.....quite delightful. I understand that full English breakfasts are on offer at weekends. Altogether a hi-calibre 'local' restaurant...highly recommended.

   Lovely girls lunch to brighten a winter Monday. Very good food with special call outs for lamb on flatbread and bread and butter pudding. Kevin the waiter was terrific - attentive, helpful and very sweet to the three year-old who was one of our number.

   Booked table for 2pm. Got held up in traffic, so phoned them and spoke to Kevin, who saved the table for us. Everything was excellent as usual.

    High quality ingredients prepared with a bit of love. Relaxed vibes. Decent plonk. Good addition to the high street.
