    Its our 'Go To' local restaurant. Any celebration or just a meal out - some time just a cocktail. Not a large menu which I prefer, everything cooked beautifully, Angel and the staff are so lovely.

    Good food, good atmosphere and excellent service - definitely worth a try ! We were definitely made to feel at home by the staff, who also offered us some limoncello at the end of our meal!

    While looking for a place to pre-game, before the Arsenal home opener, I discovered Alcedo. What a find! Reviews stated how friendly the staff was and we found this to be abundantly true. They could not do enough to ensure our comfort and were more than accommodating. The food and drinks were exceptional, but the friendly welcome and service are what sets this lovely restaurant above their competitors. Stop in and relish a lovely dining experience. You won't be disappointed!

    Unfortunately we went on a very busy day. I had been told on telephone that morning that we had the table from 3.30pm - 5.30pm. On arrival the team could not have been more welcoming. They took our drinks and food order and we were set to have a happy lunch. They were clearly busy but that added to the buzz of the place. It all went wrong when at 4.53 I asked if we could order our desserts and coffee (we had been sitting having had our main course plates cleared for some 30 minutes) the waiter said that it was too late to order a dessert as he needed the table at 3pm but we could have coffees. He then disappeared without taking an order and we were basically ignored. This really soured our day. Eventually at about 3.10pm we asked another waiter for our bill which was brought and we departed feeling very let down. What a shame.

    We booked a table to eat before a concert at Emirates. It was really busy as you can imagine. We arrived early for our table and were able to sit right away. The food and service were excellent. Would def recommend.

    Great restaurant. Each dish was beautifully prepared and had nice little touches like the warmed Gorgonzola on top of my risotto. Very well run. They did a fantastic job serving a full restaurant. Would definitely recommend.

    This is not fine dining, but it is hearty honest fare at really good prices. Pork belly was very nice, crackling was mostly for show, but the gravy and balsamic garnish added depth and class. Excellent value.

    We love this place, it’s local to where we live and a real favourite of ours. This was our first meal since lockdown lifted and the food and service were as excellent as always. Angel is an absolutely fabulous host and we were so pleased to see his business had survived the pandemic and was able to re-open.

    Alcedo Bistro & BarOwner

    Gail, very happy to see you again. Glad to hear that you have enjoyed very much. Looking forward to seeing you soon. Angel

    Food well-prepared with some flair and generous portions. Limited, reasonably priced wine list. Very friendly, family-run. Simple but attractive decor. Exactly what you would hope for in a neighbourhood restaurant.
