    What do you really want from a restaurant? Maybe a warm welcome, comfortable and stylish atmosphere, attentive service, talented chef, knowledgeable sommelier, clean toilets? Sounds easy but so often I’m disappointed by places that can’t deliver these basic elements. Clava, in West Byfleet, opened a couple of years ago by Chef Valentino, does all of this with effortless competence. It becomes self-evident when you’re eating food that takes years of training and practice, days of preparation and moments of brilliance to deliver. It doesn’t want or need Michelin praise, it’s so good. I hesitate to share this because I want to be able to get a table before word gets out. Try it while you can.

    This was our second visit to Clava and we will certainly be returning. The staff are welcoming, courteous, professional and very knowledgeable about the wine and food. Our food was excellent and the wine recommendation was delicious. There was a relaxed but sophisticated ambience and a good attention to detail. An extremely enjoyable evening.

    We’re lucky to have Clava on our doorstep. The service is relaxed and friendly and the menu gets better every time we go. Combine that with an interesting and great value selection of wines and you have the perfect place for a celebration, relaxed meal or to pop in and have a drink at the bar.
