The food was really interesting, the waitress that looked after us was lovely but the drinks were quite slow to arrive. We were an early seating so the atmosphere was non existent when we arrived but it got better. It was also quite drafts next to the window where we were sat and the furniture seemed a little odd. I’ve only heard good things about it here and we had a nice time, but it didn’t quite live up to our expectations.
Gorgeous in one word. First pic is the duck breast which I’ve had cooked just right after ages. Second is the squid starter, very very pretty. Last is their version of pulled pork can’t remember the name.
The restaurant is small and simply furnished.
Portions are small. Probably as we’re meant to eat and not pig out. Menu is on their website. No it’s not cheap but neither is it remotely near chain restaurant food.
Loved the food and drinks. We had somethings Peruvian to drink, forgot now but it was good. We’ll be back.
Best restaurant ever in England!!!!
Came from Switzerland with my best friend just to eat all the dishes and the delicious cocktails 🌞 And the wine card…Unique!
The bad point was to choose because everything was amazing!… I would have liked to have more than just one belly to eat more! 🤩
So I choose all the desserts to take away 🎉😂
Thank you to the staff for this perfect service! We were like Peruvian Queens ❤️🦙
A Hidden Gem. Took Dad out for fathers day and this restaurant didn't disappoint. Started with cocktails and I recommend the Alpaca Punch. Complimentary beer given to my dad for fathers day. My mom had the braised octopus and she finished first which is unusual. Hand dived Scallop for me which was devine and the mixed seafood ceviche for my dad which had a nice kick. Then for the mains, 1 lamb and 2 beef short rib with a bottle of red wine between the 3 of us. Cooked to perfection and full of flavour. My mom normally has some form of criticism but not on this occasion. All going to plan so far. My Dad and I had dessert which were sublime. Banana creme brulee for me. Fantastic. Mon had an expresso martini which completed her day. One more cocktail and we were done. Our waitress was fantastic and so friendly. Then came a complimentary dessert for fathers day which mom gave dad a helping hand. What a lovely day at Chakana. Would recommend this restaurant to anybody.
Lovely place to eat, food amazing. Our waitress explained what each dish was and what ingredients was in it. Great for a date night.
My wife took me out for my Birthday and we had the tasting menu. We were greeted immediately when we walked in. Our booking was for 6pm so it was not busy yet. The food was great and would definitely recommend the tasting menu, it will fill you up. The staff were great and explained what each dish was when it came out. Cocktails were really good and I also tried the Peruvian beer (dark version) which was surprisingly good, think Guinness but not as bitter, would have been nicer if it was colder, so if you order this make sure it is chilled well. We are definitely going back to try the menu, 100% recommend!!!!
Had a ball of a time here! With goodness knows how many vivid if not bordering on garish plates of delicate fish and succulent meats, Chakana really knows how to wow. The vegetarian options are a bit less wonderful, but otherwise the menu is brimming with rich, sumptuous and visually dazzling choices. My friends and I quickly found ourselves ordering more and more food despite clearly having enough, including a whole second round of desserts because they were just that good. The atmosphere was warm and bustling, yet pleasant and not too loud, and the staff were both friendly and knowledgeable. It's not the cheapest restaurant, but totally worth a visit - just try not to get as carried away as we did!
Fantastic food! Full of flavours and colour. A good selection of dishes and the staff is very helpful and friendly! The cocktails are creative and fancy looking. The restaurant is very different from what you’ll find in UK in general and even the food combinations are different from what I’ve seen in other restaurants. Absolutely would recommend!
Everything about this restaurant was not only delicious but gorgeous too. The staff were friendly and helpful. The atmosphere and decor were perfect. And the food, the food is so good I'm hungry just thinking about it. Vegetarian options were also amazing. And the cocktails too! 100% recommend, I'm already planning when I can go again.
I would safely say this is one of the best restaurants I’ve ever been to.
The taster menu was a great experience - each dish seemed so unique with ingredients and combinations I’ve never heard of before (tigers milk was delicious). The staff really put effort into talking through each dish and the intention of the different flavours.
I think the pricing is very reasonable, and with that taken into account it further justifies my claim that this one of the best restaurants I’ve been to
