This place is a magical hole in the wall. I would have bathed in the mushroom toast starter it was that delicious. And the halibut tail? SWOON. The roast chicken with cabbage that tasted of hugs and christmas… um, more please.
Had the mushrooms on sourdough and my boyfriend had the big breakfast. Both incredible, flavours were amazing and tasted like the highest quality foods were used. Prices were very reasonable - will definitely be back!
We love Richard’s. It’s a small venue and fairly unassuming, but the food is incredible. Lots of ever changing modern European meals to choose from cooked to an incredibly high standard at a very reasonable price. I feel welcomed with my baby, as well as when I’ve booked for a large group. Richard is very lovely as are the other staff.
Come here for a brunch after park run. The creamy wild mushroom toast was really good! The chef knows what he is doing. Strongly recommend! Lovely and cosy place to go!

It was my birthday and my wife who was back in my home country called me and suggested I should still treat myself with a nice dinner even when I am living alone and without her company.
I took out my phone, looked at Google Maps, and I decided to give Richard's Kitchen a try.
It took a fair walk of ~30 mins from my home, and the weather was cold after the rain earlier in the day.
Well, it turned out to be well worth it.
Whatever expectations I had before entering the restaurant, Richard and his lovely staff have exceeded them all!
Richard and the rest of the staff greeted me in such a genuinely kind and caring way that I felt at home almost instantly. Maybe it was also because there weren't too many customers at the time so they were not as busy, but still it was a really personal and seriously enjoyable touch, which is really appreciated!
Everything from the starter to the main dish tasted so good. They even kindly made a special dish for me to make my B-day special.
Even the MINT tea was well made with fresh mint leaves. Last but not least, the dessert. I loved it, period.
I never expected to have such a great dining experience in a restaurant which may look absolutely ordinary from outside. Richard and his team really put their heart and soul into running this space, and yes I can feel it, see it, and of course taste it.
They totally deserve more customers than they currently have given the quality of food at a very fair price. I look forward to getting back there regularly as long as I still live somewhere around.
Thanks Richard, we only had a brief talk but you have successfully impressed me as a talented chef, warm-hearted restaurant owner, and a genuinely great human being.
Had a great night at Richards. An interesting menu which changes often, with british produce. Waitress (Chloe) was fun and attentive. Richard at the end of the night came and had a chat with us. Top bloke. Passionate about his food.
Non pretentious, great food, great vibes. Will come back.
What a find!
Great little restaurant. Ordered 3 courses, not intending to, just because the food was so good. Venison was perfectly cooked, and my fiancé's steak and chips were melt in the mouth as well.
Make sure to get the sticky toffee pudding, a classic done beautifully.
The music was great as well. Heard some of my favourite songs, which was a pleasant surprise
I would say the best roast dinner in Tooting - had the beef this time and it was cooked perfectly with a wide range of great accompaniments. It’s not cheap but certainly worth it. We had a cheese board for dessert which was also very good and decent value. I’ve been for brunch before and remember it being excellent but have yet to try the regular dinner menu. Service was also very friendly and quick.
Lovely food, cooked with real heart and quality. Will be returning again and again! It was also relatively priced, both for starter main desert and it came to £30 each for both of us (we went for dinner). Love it
Super service, fab food at a brilliant price. Go here. Yesterday evening we had the feta parcels on a super salad, perfectly cooked sea bass with squid ink cream followed by sorbet(my wife loved her gin n tonic flavour!) and cheese platter. All just 😋.
What a wonderful little restaurant; it's extremely quirky. Four of us ate there yesterday, and everyone enjoyed what they had. Richard, the owner and chef, came to take our drinks order and at the end to apologise for the slow service. We said that we didn't consider the service was slow anyway. If you are in the area, make sure you book here.
Love this place and the Big Breakfast is amazing (hint a a Full English with homemade bubble and steak!)
Definitely a little gem of tooting!! We enjoyed the homely feel and the maps from 1890s! I had the sea bass which was a perfect burst of flavours & my partner had the steak. He said “I’ll be back for this” right after the last bite. Thanks Richard & team !
Casual place, good food at a good value. Nice staff, feels homely with Richard cooking in the small kitchen 😊
We had pâté to start, two roast lunches (one lamb and one beef) and sticky toffee to finish. Everything was very nice!
Every time we visit we have an incredible meal, cooked from scratch with amazing flavor.
Richard is always accommodating for my dietary requirements, so great GF and veggie options. Highly recommend!
I love this place, we had breakfast this morning it was unbelievable. Eggs Benedict were exceptional!! Five stars from me, would recommend to anyone. ❤️
Football has Messi, basketball has Michael Jordan. Cooking has Richard.
This man can do things with an oven that would make Gordon Ramsay question if he’s in the right field of employment. We visited on Sunday for a roast and let me tell you, ol’ Rick knows his way around a piece of beef.
Our generation may have been born too late to discover the world and too early to discover outer space, but we’ve been born at exactly the right moment to enjoy a delicious meal at Richard’s Kitchen.
Really lovely casual restaurant with amazing food, beautifully presented, and super friendly staff. Can’t recommend highly enough!
The best dinner I have ever had from the quaint rustic setting to the thought out delicious dishes everything was perfect!! Would highly recommend, range of different dishes including fish and vegetarian dishes
10/10!!!!! ⭐️
