    This place never disappoints. Consistently good food and service. In common with other restaurants there are lots of take out orders. For the first time one waiter brought our order with takeout bags in his other hand. It’s sad when takeouts impact dine in experience, and I hope this was a one off as it’s such a great place. Will definitely be back.

    Good service and food. Tables are a bit on the small side but understandable due to the size of the place.

    Food is always great. Service is great. Loved my cocktail, best pornstar martini I have had in a while. All in all a lovely night spent celebrating my daughter’s 13th Birthday.

    Absolutely delicious food. The children loved it too. It’s not cheap, but wonderful food like this rarely is. Service was attentive without being too much. Totally recommend!

    The ongoing delivery pick ups popping in & out isn't ideal but I recognise this might be the only way to action. Its distracting & intermittent cold air but like the food.

    Carpaccio would have been better served before spicy cauliflower.!! Both main dishes beef and chicken seemed to have the same sauce. Nice but a bit of after taste.

    Incredible food - truly one of my favourite meals in London! It isn't overly vibey and ambience could perhaps do with some improving, but the food itself is delicious!

    We visit Barnes every summer and Oka is always one of our favourite places to eat. We usually eat here a couple times a week. However, this summer the service and atmosphere has declined. I say this after five different occasions. The staff were not familiar with their own menu which is not complicated. They were literally running through the very small dining area over and over again by several members of staff. Drinks were hot, food did not come out together. While half the dinner party finished their apitezers the others hadn’t received theirs yet. The food is very good and I have no complaints there. Last summer I felt the staff were managed better and they had a better table side repoire with its guests. It’s a shame. Even my 10 year old said maybe it’s not her favourite Barnes place to eat anymore after trying so many times and always getting poor service…. I hope they get the help they need front of house!
