FANTASTIC restaurantEnoteca Turi is a fantastic restaurant that I can highly recommend. The wine list is suberb, the atmosphere lovely, and the food is brilliant. The service has always been great whenever my wife and I have eaten there.

Putney isn't exactly a hot-bed of fine dining, though there are some great restaurants. But Enoteca rises to the top of my list when I think of top-quality restaurants in Putney. Always a fabulous dining experience.]]> Fri, 23 May 2008 16:36:39 +0000 /review/uk/london/restaurant/1p2us7/enoteca-turi855764327 jedc romantic expensive 51.465273 -0.214495 Emile's http://trustedplaces.com/review/uk/london/restaurant/1q52l6z/emile-s

Backstreets gemThis great little place is a bit hidden on the back streets of Putney. That said, walking by virtually any evening and the place is busy for a reason!

Solid menu, great service, relaxed environment with prices that are a good value for what you get.

The decor is a bit anonymous, but it never really bothered me.

Great food every time I've been there... absolutely recommended!]]> Fri, 23 May 2008 15:19:33 +0000 /review/uk/london/restaurant/1q52l6z/emile-s112381802 jedc italian seafood international family & home feel business good value brasserie 51.465999 -0.219796 Black & Blue http://trustedplaces.com/review/uk/london/restaurant/1503w8b/black-and-blue

Great steak and seafoodI've always enjoyed the King Prawns, myself. Spectacular!

The ambiance is very nice, with lots of space for customers, high ceilings, and a general openness. Black & Blue also has the best hamburgers I've ever been able to find in the entire city of London.

Heartily recommended as a great steak and seafood restaurant!]]> Tue, 11 Sep 2007 16:20:45 +0000 /review/uk/london/restaurant/1503w8b/black-and-blue1743234199 jedc Good value Business 51.516008281354 -0.15234193773672 Gordon's Wine Bar http://trustedplaces.com/review/uk/london/bar-pub/1p75e7/gordon-s-wine-bar

London's worst-kept secretGordon's is an absolute treasure of an establishment. Unfortunately, it's the worst-kept secret in town, and it seems that every time I've managed to get there recently it's been absolutely jam-packed.

If it's summertime, the small outdoor area is a beautiful place to share some bottles of wine with friends. If you're looking for a cozier time, try to get one of the tables inside that seems to have been only recently dug out of the ground. (Very cave-like, and VERY low ceilings.)

As for the wine menu, it's fantastic. Lots of variety, and good value for money.

This is one of the more unique central London establishments I've been to, and heartily recommend it.]]> Tue, 11 Sep 2007 16:12:53 +0000 /review/uk/london/bar-pub/1p75e7/gordon-s-wine-bar215451623 jedc Romantic Good value Crowded 51.507462751492 -0.12386668469602 Maze http://trustedplaces.com/review/uk/london/restaurant/150387c/maze

Top-notchMaze is a fantastic restaurant and is well-deserving of it's current one-star Michelin rating.

I chose the Chef's menu on my last visit since I wanted a well-coordinated range of tastes, and I was not disappointed. All seven courses were absolutely stupendous, and the sommelier chose an excellent "flight" of three wines to accompany the menu. My wife chose from the standard menu and was also nicely surprised by the power and subtlety of tastes in each dish.

If you can get a reservation, this restaurant is a must-taste!]]> Tue, 11 Sep 2007 14:16:21 +0000 /review/uk/london/restaurant/150387c/maze649022368 jedc 51.512058 -0.151637 Hudson's http://trustedplaces.com/review/uk/london/restaurant/1q72r6f/hudson-s

Fantastic restaurantHudson's is simply a fantastic restaurant. Located on Lower Richmond Road in Putney, it is close to the river and convenient to public transportation.

The food is simply consistently great. I live nearby and the food is always good, usually great. The service is very friendly and professional, and it keeps the aura of an outstanding local neighborhood restaurant. Many of the chairs have been reclaimed from church sales, so there's just a bit of fun quirkiness to the ambiance. They have seating outside, in a conservatory, and other cozy spaces.

The menu has items to suit every taste, from burgers to pastas to comfort food and more. You will always find something you like here, and it will always be good.]]> Tue, 11 Sep 2007 14:04:55 +0000 /review/uk/london/restaurant/1q72r6f/hudson-s269252446 jedc 51.467625069331 -0.22196733153154
