Best Fine Dining Restaurants in Carshalton

Incredible food at a beautiful restaurant in the heart of Clapham old town down. The lunch menu was super value at £90 for 4 courses. The wine list is extensive with so much variety, not many bottles on the cheaper side but expected at a Michelin restaurant. The honey soufflé made from locally sourced Clapham bees was a lovely touch. Can’t wait to go again!

The food and drinks at this restaurant are delicious. You are going to pay accordingly, but expect to have a solid meal and very good drinks. The atmosphere is beautiful — the restaurant is well decorated. It’s not too loud and not too crowded, which makes it feel pretty posh. However, we had a very odd experience with our server Nelson. He didn’t even say hello or good evening when we arrived and he just raised his eyebrows and said “yes please” when he took his notebook out to order. While I am all for efficiencies (I used to be a server and a bartender for 3 years), part of the hospitality business is…hospitality. This man expressed no smile, no emotion, and no sense of humanness. It was so weird. One of the ladies who appeared to be a manager came over to take our dessert order and she was very friendly, but we couldn’t understand why Nelson was so extremely cold. It appeared that this was his demeanor towards other tables as well. We arrived 5 mins early, didn’t take long to order drinks and food, and didn’t linger. What was his issue? We will never know. We will definitely be back to the Ivy, but will request to not have him as a server.

My first time at Tamarind and it was amazing. Fabulous location, great atmosphere, first class service and delicious food. I’ll definitely be visiting Tamarind again!

Well I’ve wondered for a few years why this was my fiancés favourite restaurant and we finally got to experience it together. Food fantastic. Service excellent. Venue delightful. Don’t debate, go to daphnes for delicious Italian food.

Scott's is a must-visit for any seafood lover! I highly recommend experiencing their impeccably prepared fish. The food is incredibly delicious, showcasing how truly fresh and well-handled seafood should taste. Beyond the fantastic cuisine, the restaurant boasts a lovely ambiance, making it the perfect spot for a special meal.
