Really enjoyed our meal at this fun neighbourhood place. From the outside it looks nice enough but inside its really lovely, plenty of space but also not too big. The food is really fantastic, we had baked mushrooms, Greek salad, lasagnati, sage and butter ravioli, and cheesecake for dessert. The wine, especially the dessert wine, was great. Can't fault the service either, really friendly. Great little place.
Friends of Flavours is a charming Italian restaurant in Penge. We had such tasty food this evening: goats cheese salad with raspberry dressing and walnuts and baked mushrooms in Gorgonzola sauce served with garlic bread to start. Our mains were incredible - the Lasagnati (with beef Bolognese cream, Mozzarella & Parmigiano) and Ravioli spinach and ricotta in butter, Parmesan and sage sauce - were really beautiful plates of food. Dessert - the Bruno cheesecake - was so creamy and delicious and the dessert wine sublime. Service was very professional and charming and I really enjoyed the music too - a great evening.
Really lovely and helpful people and the food was absolutely delicious. It was our first time here and will definitely not be our last. So nice to have such a lovely restaurant in our area.
My friendly recently moved in the area and we decided to try this restaurant which was a short walk. We all agreed it was beautifully decorated and is a cute lunch or date location. The staff were nice and were quite happy with our meals. Especially the tiramisu which we shared since we were so full. I would highly recommend.
Cute restaurant off main Penge High Street. My Milanese chicken was great - huge piece of chicken in a crispy batter. Delicious. But I wasn’t so keen on the linguini with cherry tomatoes as the tomato skins remained in the sauce. Hub enjoyed the pollo cacciatore which was again huge. For big eaters.
A second visit to this restaurant. Enjoyed both times. The italian dishes are very good. Service was good, although they gave my friend the wrong prawn dish for starters, but it was changed quite quickly. My linguine main course was quite substantial.
The wine list is good and we enjoyed two bottles of the falanghina, which was very drinkable. The cost was just over £150 for 3, including service.
What an amazing evening. The staff were wonderful. The food is delicious and the wine is very affordable and Delicious. It was our first time this evening but we might have to go back in time days when the Fiano wine comes over from Italy. What a find.
Lovely cosy family restaurant with great flavours, good portions and super cooking. Warm and friendly. Highly recommended.
Had a great meal this evening, great food, fresh fish and lovely service. Will be back!
Absolutely fabulous meal last night with friends. The carbonara was incredible. Served but jolly happy waiters. Thank you!
Food is presented very nicely, great menu and fantastic service, extremely accommodating and friendly. Really inviting restaurant - from what we could see highly popular with families and easy to see why. From personal taste ideally they would serve at least 1 alternative lager to Peroni (maybe bottles of Moretti as an option!?) and perhaps make the lighting a little more subdued later on to add to the atmosphere. Regardless; it's a lovely little place with varied and unusual Italian flavours, all very fresh ingredients with authenticity and cooking to match. Highly recommend.
Superb restaurant. Excellent food. Great service. Will definitely visit again.

Really lovely local restaurant in Penge. I've been a few times with a friend, and I've never had a bad meal. The pasta is always fantastic. Good starters and dessert as well. Very friendly staff. Would recommend if you're in the area.
Very good restaurant with authentic italian food, good service and reasonable prices!
