What diners say

Justyna Hermann

I visited Cardinal several times during my longer stay in London, and it never disappointed. The food was always delicious, and the atmosphere was both classy and welcoming. I highly recommend the Cardinal Burger, the fish & chips and the tiramisu – all were excellent. What made my experience even more memorable was the outstanding service. One of the staff members, Jizz, recognized me immediately every time I walked into the restaurant and always made sure I felt welcome and enjoyed both my meal and my time at Cardinal. That personal touch really made a difference.

Went for dinner at this lovely Gem place. The food, environment, staff and everyone was soo lovely. Special thanks to Saakshi who was very genuine and full of recommendations and Katia was brilliant. They both made sure we were looked after very well and recommended us amazing wines. Loved the drinks and food. Compliments to chef as well. Looking forward to visit again. Marvellous experience. Thank you very much.
