    Waffle House - Waffle with blueberries and vanilla yogurt

    What a great cafe! I ordered waffles with blueberries, infused vanilla yogurt, and honey. The…read morewaffles were made nice and crispy, and were very filling! I also loved the crispy bacon. We sat in the front by the window which was nice and cozy. They were a bit on the busy side when we entered, but once our order was taken it took about 20 minutes to get our food. It was worth the wait!

    From the looks of previous reviews, Waffle House is a local staple well-known to residents and…read morevisitors alike; yelp is not highly utilised in Norwich yet this business has a higher than average review count. Even without yelp, I'd know how popular this place is because it's in all the guides and is a restaurant I'd initially seen and heard about when starting at the university. It's one of the first breakfasts I had in Norwich and is easy to find in the city centre. As expected, it was busy but we didn't wait too long to be seated. The queue ended up being much longer after we finished. There are multiple floors but we were on the ground level towards the back dining area--just a tad bit of a tight squeeze around our table. We ordered three dishes: a granola and fruit bowl to share, the Mixed Fruit & Nut Waffle, and the Waffle House Breakfast (mine, which included a waffle, free range scrambled eggs, field tomatoes and mushrooms, and bacon rashers). While the savoury bits were okay, I found the namesake waffles, and ultimately the plate itself, to be forgettable...or below average at best. With a spattering of other superior breakfast and lunch eateries in the city, Waffle House is not one I'd return to. I know I'm deviating from the general review consensus, but I wasn't particularly impressed with my dining experience and a relative of mine had an even worse meal another time. However, the service was fine, and my dining companion liked the meal (sweet options) and coffee more than I did.

    The service is superb, warm and welcoming and the food is delightful!…read more Though served as buffet (which I have never really been a fan of) the quality of the food is exceptional and it is clear that the chef takes genuine pride in her cooking! The food ranges from various parts of Africa but predominantly East Africa. I enjoyed EVERYTHING I tried including the Ugali which is perfect with the delicious beef stew. Even the jollof rice which is a famous West African dish was delicious. It's a hidden gem in London and will soon become well known for its down-to-earth atmosphere, great vibe and delicious food. It perfect for birthday meals or nights out with a group of friends. Make sure you book your table soon before there's a waiting list!

    Verdict: It's... Ok. Definitely wouldn't get a reservation or wait longer than 10 minutes to get…read moreseated. I don't think I'll be back, and I wouldn't recommend this unless you were extremely uncultured and didn't know what real Asian food was like. Non-Asian folks may love this place - so take other reviews with a grain of salt (I personally am shocked at how highly rated this place is). The missus rates it lower than me (3/5 from me), so I give this place her rating cuz we were both... very sad about this. Missus and I showed up at 4pm on a Saturday in May. It was hella busy when we arrived, but quickly emptied out after we started getting our food. This place claims its Thai but they only have the spice part down... I doubt this is actually authentic. Maybe it's Southeast Asian inspired?? If anyone else knows please comment. The portion sizes are predictably small, and I don't think we ordered enough for two to be full, even though it was quite pricey (given the portion size). We ordered the rump cap, curry, clay pot, and a lager to drink. Nothing was that memorable - the rump cap was well made but the curry definitely made us question the cultural authenticity of this place. I wouldn't order the curries here - the meat dishes seem decent though. The ambiance in here is definitely loud, since sound carries - any conversation gets amplified and you can hear every word - even the annoying laughs or coughs are at volume 11 (so try to keep your voices down!). There's a background music track but it's faint and you can only barely hear it when anyone is talking. The restaurant layout is very good for communal dining, but really bad for intimate settings. If I were a dating man (I'm not), I wouldn't bring a date here. The service is also extremely slow - from when we ordered to when we got all of our food was roughly 45 min - which, given how hungry we were, and how empty the place was - inexcusable and really disappointing. Note: mandatory 12.5% service charge on top of your meal.

    Food was excellent. Unique flavours and very well priced. Service was also very good, great…read morerecommendations. Lovely vibe in the restaurant.
