PAPA L's KITCHEN Reviews Summary

Food Quality

Pros:

• "Spicy but not overwhelming for our tropical buds at all."
• "Fantastic West African cuisine, the dishes all had a great and different taste to them."
• "The food tasted incredible and the variety in the menu meant there was something for everyone."
• "The food was divine. We had salmon and stone bass for main and it was cooked prefectly."
• "Great food (we had a three course meal because each course was better than the last)."
• "The flavor in all the dishes were amazing and well worth the price."
• "Papa L's gave me the most delicious food I've ever tasted."
• "Even the desserts were faultless. Lamp cutlets, lamb sausages, tiger prawns, chicken mains and beef ribs were the highlights."

Cons:

• "The cassava fries were not my favourite, I think the rocoto sauce that comes with the fries is not to my taste."
• "The dessert wasn’t the best but the BBQ lamb was amazing."
• "Food was good but a curry without rice and you have to order sides on top at £5+ each makes it on the low value for money scale."
• "The food was just ok, both our fish and meat were massively overcooked."
• "My main of Salmon was soaked in sauce that was too salty and too sweet, I literally took one bite and left the rest."
• "Service was disorganised. My friend asked to take some food away as she couldn’t eat it since we lost our appetite by the time the food arrived and we were offered to put in tin foil."
• "Portions were small and the mains needed side dishes ordered to make it worthwhile."
• "The "Coco Bread" looked - and tasted - like a slightly dry, misshapen bap."

Cons:

• "We waited a while (30 mins) for our second round of cocktails but they were so good."
• "Good food (though overpriced), but bad service. Our waiter confused the cocktails."
• "Really really bad service by our waitress upstairs for dinner."
• "Service is extremely slow having one chef only at the kitchen."
• "The service was super slow and disorganised. The restaurant is totally lacking in any atmosphere."
• "Tbh I had the worst experience here... myself and my friend were left waiting for our food for almost 2 hours."

• "Would not recommend you give this establishment your money, much better businesses in the local area."
