Black Pepper

Was very disappointed. Expected much more. The Minestrone was like water with some vegetables and the bruschetta was the worst I have ever come across.

lovely food, ambience and great wine. Local to us so were able to walk there. Staff very pleasant and courteous. Service excellent. Great meal on Xmas Day too

Spent the evening with friends at this lovely Restaurant, Food was excellent, great selection of wine, staff very helpful especially Katerina. Well done everyone, we had a great time.

The food was nice but the service was very slow. We waited an hour for our main course and again a long time for our bill.

We enjoyed great food and received a great service. We will certainly be going back again and would happily recommend Black Pepper. Book in advance, it gets busy.

Good food, enjoyed our meal, best thing about this Resturant is that it is open till late we booked for 10.30pm as needed to go after a show. Good service

The host is very friendly, the food excellent, and the restaurant is exceptionally clean. Plus the added thoughtfulness of giving a boxed orchid as a gift for Mother’s Day. A great experience overall.

We were 30 mins late and the woman who greeted us was so rude, she just kept going on about how late we were and that she needed the table by 7:30pm. She put me right off. It was my son's 6th birthday and it spoilt the lovely day we had.

Really nice and cosy place. Staff are very helpful and nice. We had an amazing evening and will definitely go again. A+++++++++ I highly recommend it.

Excellent service from friendly and jovial staff. The Lunch menu was reasonably priced and the portions were generous. We were all happy (3 of us) with what we ordered, Liver for one of us and the Seafood Linguine for the other 2 of us. I thought the Seafood Linguine sauce was a little dry, but that is my own personal taste, otherwise thoroughly enjoyable and tasty meal. Dessert was a Panna Cotta with Plum Compote - it was delicious. All in all a fantastic good value meal for 3. Thank you.

Amazing restaurant with great food and great service. Always a winner! Parking is a little limited but other than that it's one to go back to

Plenty of choice on the set menu and food was delicious Good value and reasonable price. Excellent service all evening Will be visiting again soon

The service was very slow even though the restaurant was not particularly busy. The cocktails were great and the food was good but I would recommend only going if you are not in a rush

I went to Black Pepper with family for my husband birthday celebrations. I loved it the atmosphere was calm, the background music was eclectic but relaxing overall a great experience and evening.

Service was good and fairly quick, food was lovely and hot, restaurant is small but pleasant, and prices are reasonable. Would definitely go there again.

Good food, well presented and pleasant service . A good restaurant for the area. The only disappointment was the lack of decor, not particularly inspiring.

The Food was excellent. Lots of choice on the menu. service was excellent. Friendly staff. Lovely atmosphere. Would recommend for a family meal or night out with friends.

Lovely venue! Staff really helpful and food yummy The atmosphere was really good full of Christmas cheer, and the entertainment was fun. Well definately go again. Thanks

Although 2 out of 3 rack of lamb were tough but overall food and service were good. Portions a bit small for size of plates.

Our meal was delicious - the lobster spaghetti is to be recommended. The staff were pleasant and attentive and let us mix and match the menus. As it was Christmas there were crackers for us all which added to a jolly atmosphere. I haven't been to Black Pepper in a while but I shall be back again soon.

There were four of us girls, we'd all left babies home with partners / babysitters and ended up having a terrible time. Such a shame as other online reviews of this place are good. The main order took such a long time to come out, we had to ask how much longer it was going to take. I ordered the salmon for main and it was over cooked and very dry. On the Friday they had a live singer there and he was just terrible! Out of tune and so loud. We did ask for the volume to be turned down but this was not possible. I'm reluctant to return.

Staff pleasant and attentive to our party of 8, but all main courses were not served hot, but only just warm. Didn't complain, as didn't want to spoil party atmosphere.

EXCELLENT FOOD AND SERVICE AS USUAL. I ALWAYS RECOMMEND BLACK PEPPER TO MY FRIENDS AND I WILL BE HOSTING A CHRISTMAS PARTY THERE IN DECEMBER

Went early on a Monday and had the Evening Menu. Service was quick, food was really tasty and great value for money. Would definitely visit again.

Very pleasant and courteous staff. Food very tasty and served up quickly. It was also nice and hot. Everyone around us seemed to be enjoying their food too.

We had an excellent dinner. The steak medallions were much appreciated by my guest. My dish of calfs liver was delicately flavoured with a delicious light sage flavoured sauce.

Good food, good service and reasonably priced menu. What more is there to say I lunched with three others and we all enjoyed our experience.

9 of us had lunch here and the food was excellent with good portion size. The service was friendly and efficient. We had the 2 course lunch for £12.95 and there was plenty of choice.

The food tasted great, good portion size. The cocktails were nice as well although it did taste like it was a bit light on alcohol. Fantastic value for money and definitely will be visiting the place again.

Food was faultless and portion sizes about right. I was also allowed to swap potatoes for an alternative. The only issue was with the slow service. Servers were attentive when they arrived but too slow.

Great food. Lovely atmosphere. Service there when you wanted it . Probably very quiet as it was a Sunday lunch time. Desserts especially nicely presented.

Lovely, attentive staff, delicious food and wine and fast service. Great place for date night or dining with a group! Highly recommend Black Pepper :)

A brilliant evening, wonderful food and drinks, lovely atmosphere, the staff are so welcoming and the service is outstanding. The visit was for my birthday and was made to feel very special with lovely free drinks and an ice cream with a sparkler. Thank you for a memorable night. Definitely recommended

The meal was excellent and the service was great too. We've been a couple of times in the last month and will definitely be back.

Menu varied, food was superbly cooked, tasty and value for money, service friendly and prompt. Would liked ro have seen more Italuan wines by the glass but we had perfectly mixed cocktails instead.

We hadn't been to Black Pepper for a while and we were pleasantly surprised to be recognised by the always friendly staff and owner Azziz. We will definitely continue to use the best restaurant in Hatch End

The staff were Courteous and friendly starting from the manager to the ladies. The food too is great and the atmosphere is relaxed, very good for evening. Total service delivery is excellent

Great food and marvellous service makes a perfect night out which we had. We would highly recommend this restaurant compared to similar within the same area.

Nice food, decent service! As the restaurant was very quiet on a Monday night, there was a distinct lack of atmosphere. Better when the usual bustle.

We all thought that the service was very good and our meal and the wine that was suggested was lovely. We would recommend to our friends and family

Food was delicious and we were served complimentary olives. As it was busy we were a bit cramped and service was somewhat slow, but friendly.

We haven't visited Black Pepper for several years but I'm very pleased to say the standard of food and service is still as good as ever !

Food was lovely and staff friendly and polite. This restaurant is worth a visit, it is reasonably priced and I have always enjoyed what I had. I really liked the minestrone soup.

Had a lovely round table which was great as there were 5 of us. Food nice and service good Would definitely go again another time

Food very high quality and service excellent, despite a few large parties and a very full restaurant. Prices are below what they could charge so excellent value. Nice personal attention from the manager/owner too. Highly recommended.

We've been recommended this restaurant by friends. Lovely food & cocktails and the service is excellent! Nice to know that such a great restaurant exists in our neighbourhood. Will definitely come again :)

The food was good and tasty. The staff were friendly but the restaurant was not full even though it was a Saturday night and therefore lacked atmosphere.

Excellent lunch from a good set menu. Very reasonably priced and served by their friendly staff. Would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone in the Hatch End area.

Unfortunately, I was very ill after I returned home on the Friday night. I know for certain I was not ill because I consumed too much alcohol - had 2 glasses of red wine at the restaurant. I had motzerell cheese for starters and Fish for main course - Im assuming it was the starter or the main course that I became ill from. All my friends had another dish ( Not Fish ) I usually would rate the Black Pepper but this time I cant unfortunately.

Great local restaurant, handy to have round the corner. Always a warm welcome and a great atmosphere. Food is good and realistically priced. I would recommend this restaurant.
