I almost feel like I shouldn't be writing a review of Numidie because I want to keep it for myself and my pals in Crystal Palace but I feel like doing a good deed today so here we go...

The wine bar downstairs at Numidie provides a welcome break from the pubs and restaurants in the area which can get very busy particularly at the weekend. However, Numidie is never empty and is always a favourite with a regular bunch of friendly people and those who have just stumbled upon the place much to their delight.

The wine menu is great, the staff are friendly and upstairs in the restaurant the food is particularly delicious. We went for New Year's Eve. Our group of 10 had a table in the corner in between the tiny outdoor courtyard which is perfect for the smokers in the group and the bar which got pretty packed up in the run-up to midnight.

I would definitely recommend a glass of wine here before dining upstairs or anywhere else in the triangle. I love the place.]]> Tue, 08 Jan 2008 12:48:20 +0000 /review/uk/london/restaurant/1o02p8k/numidie/1j86471597183951 helenlauralewis 51.419545895261 -0.081444250784304 http://trustedplaces.com/review/uk/london/restaurant/1o02p8k/numidie/1r32h8

The term 'best kept secret' is used far too liberally these days, but I am pleased to say that in the case of Numidie, it is absolutely accurate. In fact, I wasn't going to review it, after all, there are plenty of brownie points to be earned when taking friends to somewhere they've never heard of. But I'm a nice guy. And Numidie is special.

The decor could be described as 'laid back with a French feel', it's quite dark inside but that makes it feel intimate. The food is excellent, Mediterranean with a heavy leaning on North African, so expect Lamb with Couscous, Beef in Truffle Jus and Bream with Fennel, amongst others. This all comes together with flair, and the friendliness of the staff means that it's a place I go back to again and again.]]> Fri, 25 May 2007 09:28:22 +0000 /review/uk/london/restaurant/1o02p8k/numidie/1r32h81286901709 ONscotland 51.419545895261 -0.081444250784304
