I eat here quite often. Cannot fault the food, the service and the value for money

Beautiful restaurant in the district of Bloomsbury. Very welcoming staff and excellent food. We recommend this address

I have been to Barcelona restaurant near Aldgate for dinner several times now and always had a great meal. Good value and good quality.

I love this restaurant. You can see the chef cooking. It's very vibrant atmosphere and lots of birthday parties take place there!.

We were a very happy party of 5 at the end of the evening. Delicious food and lovely and informative service. The menu is not enormous but everyone was very happy with their selections. Excellent wine too.

Yayaka might be Ealing’s best kept secret! We made a same day booking for dinner, we’re welcomed and seen to our table immediately, and had drinks and our starters within 10 minutes. We loved every dish, but we will be dreaming about the braised lamb until our next visit. Day or night, this little Greek gem is worth a visit!

Can’t fault the food & service -

Fine tapas served in a lovely location. Good staff Was greeted on arrival by who I think was the owner. Very friendly Lovely server whose Spanish was a lot better than mine. There was a singer with a guitar who was very enjoyable

I had yet another fabulous meal here. Matthew's Kitchen is one of my absolute favourites and my first choice if I want a guaranteed good dining experience. With a warm and welcoming atmosphere and excellent service, the quality and selection of food are always on point. I have repeatedly recommended this restaurant to friends and family and am always thanked afterwards!

Just what Ealing needed. Lovely food with a unique touch. I had the kolouri thessalonikis (salmon/egg bagel) and it was delicious. The staff are so lovely and child friendly. Will be back for sure!

A really delicious meal with amazing service. everything was fresh tasting and the advice on the menu was on point. even better, dog friendly.

Had a fantastic evening at Matthew’s Kitchen on Tuesday! I enjoyed the unlimited mussels with three different sauces—each one delicious, and the mussels were fresh and meaty. Such a great offer! My wife had the set menu, and both courses were fantastic. Highly recommend Matthews Kitchen for amazing seafood and a great dining experience!

We visited Matthews Kitchen on Saturday evening and had an amazing experience! The restaurant was packed, creating a lively and welcoming atmosphere. The service here is truly fantastic, allowing you to fully enjoy every part of the dining experience—from the expertly crafted drinks to the delicious starters, fresh and flavorful main courses, and finally, a perfect coffee to end the meal. The fish display is a great touch, showcasing the incredible freshness of the seafood. The cocktails were also excellent! I highly recommend Matthews Kitchen to anyone looking for top-quality seafood, outstanding service, and a memorable evening. Thank you

We visited Matthews Kitchen on Friday evening, and the restaurant was busy with a great atmosphere. This was my third visit this month, and once again, I thoroughly enjoyed everything! The food was fantastic, the service was exceptional, and the décor added to the overall experience. A big thank you to the staff for making every visit so enjoyable. I’ll definitely be back again!

Great sea food, fresh and tasty. Excellent service and lovely atmosphere

Had been meaning to try this restaurant for a long time. Was not disappointed. Food was excellent. Will definitely be going again. It was a Saturday night and it was VERY busy - service was a little slow but not a problem. Staff were absolutely lovely. Lovely decor and great ambiance. Highly recommend it!

Very tasty food. The chef(s) is clearly very talented. I'm not familiar with Greek cuisine so i found the flavours unique. If you like to try something different, away from the "typical" foods, certainly worth trying. My only criticism is value for money. As a rare or one off experience, I will return to Yayaka. I like my food (I certainly have capacity for it), so if you have an appetite it's likely you will need a starter and a main. I had the scallops which is just under £20 and the excellent lamb just under £25. Lamb was totally worth it. As tasty as the scallops were, they were quite anemic. Instantly cheapend the experience. I went for all three courses for dinner and had 2 beers which came to around £70+. With other great places like Polka and Remoli around the corner, not sure the price would justify frequent visits... maybe for the cocktail ;-)

Just love Matthews - great food, friendly staff, a good ambience and the decor is great. The menu has both fish and veggie options which for us, was great. We cannot recommend Matthews enough - TRY IT!!!
