West African restaurant · South Bermondsey

@infatuation

"805 is an institution as popular as it is in Nigeria and Ghana’s capital as it is in England's. Nigerian dignitaries and celebrities head down the Old Kent Road to come here at all times of the day and night. It’s a pioneer of British West African fine dining. Smartly dressed waitstaff serve dishes on elegant, polished porcelain plates without a speck of loose sauce. Loud, but not overly raucous, music and conversation set the tone for date night or sensible large occasions. The sprawling menu spans Nigerian dishes like umami-rich edikanikong (a leafy green, pumpkin, and crayfish stew) and efo riro (spinach stew), and juicy, fiery grilled prawns. Our cutlery usually remains spotless, though, as we tear apart house specialty monika—perfectly crispy-skinned, succulent fish with chilli sauce which you can adjust to your heat tolerance. photo credit: Koray Firat photo credit: Koray Firat photo credit: Koray Firat photo credit: Koray Firat" - Riaz Phillips
