The Willow - Kingston upon Thames

Great place to go if they have any kind of food needs or follow like a paleo diet

We booked the table for a Saturday dinner and we were the only table there when we arrived. the service was very good. the children’s menus were a little too adult taste, so children don’t enjoy it. the adult, on the other hand, enjoyed the food and drinks very much. it was a choice for occasions instead of a casual meal.

Soothe yourself to go to a restaurant that guarantees gluten, milk-free eating in a pleasant environment. would definitely recommend.

Amazing eating. healthy and delicious. so good to see restaurants with a healthy approach for food

We booked a table at The Willow for a birthday celebration and it didn 't disappoint. We were initially intrigued by the restaurant 's website and the range of food it offered and we were curious to see if it lived up to its promise. On arrival we were greeted and taken to our table all the tables were beautifully set out and the lighting was soft and ambient. Each table had a lily in a little vase and coupled with the shining glass and silverware and the unobtrusive music in the background, the impression was very positive and welcoming. Excellent first impressions! I ordered brill in a black squid ink batter, pea shoots and sweet potato fries and my wife, a vegan, ordered a Rainbow Salad and Falafel burger with sourdough bun and sweet potato fries. Both meals were of a very high quality: the fish was expertly cooked, fresh and delicious and the batter was remarkable and delectable. It was a revelation to us both to try sweet potato fries a first. They were delicious and very moreish and we will definitely be having them again. My wife was very taken with the Rainbow Salad and asked to see the ingredients for future reference. The Manager willingly showed us the restaurant book where we were able to see colour photos of all the dishes and their ingredients and any allergens and dietary information. For dessert my wife had a B Raw raspberry cheesecake (made with coconut) and on finding out that it was her birthday, the chef wrote 'Happy Birthday ' in dark chocolate sauce across the plate a really lovely touch! I had Almond and Chocolate Dome with raspberry ice cream: delicious too. All in all we had a wonderful, relaxed and enjoyable meal at The Willow. We will definitely be returning to sample more of the dishes on their extensive menu. There is something for everybody at The Willow: meat eaters, fish eaters, vegetarians and vegans are amply catered for and their philosophy of food is encouraging and to be recommended. Thank you very much!
