Turo Turo Tooting

Dishes to enliven your taste buds but provide a comforting hug. The servers were lovely, friendly and helpful. The food really was the star and does a great job highlighting the amazing food from the Philippines.

I had no idea what to expect when it came to Filipino food and after going to this restaurant, I can confidently say that the guys and gals at this place are taking things to a whole...new....level Everything I ate here was delicious! And the sauces they pair with everything compliment each dish so well! I wish I lived a life time growing up with a Filipino grandma who made me all these amazing foods. But until then, do try out this spot for some good eating.

We had an amazing time celebrating my friend’s birthday. The staff were incredibly accommodating, allowing us to play music and dance, which made the night even more fun and festive. My recommendation would be to order the sizzling pork sisig because it was absolutely delicious. Turo Turo is definitely a top spot for celebrations and great Filipino food!

The most delicious, warm, friendly restaurant we didn’t know we needed. The food was amazing! We’d especially recommend the aubergine starter, the beef Kare Kare, and the pork belly. The entire front of house team are beyond lovely, and clearly put love into every table. Chef Rex knows that he’s doing! Welcome to Tooting Turo Turo!

We had amazing meal with very friendly service. Food was so fresh and tasty. We would reorder everything again but definitely you have to try Beef Kare Kare! Great job guys! We will be back and and recommend to everyone we know

We had a really tasty lunch on Saturday! We looked to try lots of things, as we are not that familiar with Filipino food, but what a time we had. The food is fragrant, light and full of flavour! The staff were helpful, the manager Imi a delight and we will be back. Be sure to book a table!

Overall a very good Filipino grill. It’s hard to find better in London. Highlights include the aubergine, inasal and grilled pork. Dessert was just okay.

About the place? Being a lover of Filipino food, and having already tried Turo Turo in Holborn, we had to try it to see what different dishes the restaurant had to offer. What I ordered? Firstly, let me say that the two dishes that I really wanted to try Crispy Beef Kare Kare and Grilled Chicken Inasal were both unavailable. So, we decided to go for Sizzling Pork Sisig, Pork Liempo. Charred Aubergine, Ensaladang Talong, Prawn Pancit Canton, Jasmine Rice and Turon with Ube ice cream (Banana and Tahini ice cream was out of stock.) How was it? Overall, it was a pleasurable experience, delicious food and great service, a few shortages but nothing that was going to ruin our experience, shortages happen you need to roll with it. What I liked? Everything was delicious, but the standout dishes for me were both the Prawn Pancit Canton and Sizzling Pork Sisig. What didn’t I like? If I had to pick one thing it would be the door, it was not closing correctly and therefore it got cold every time someone used it as it needed to be physically closed. But this is a minor issue, as we all know that cold affects wooden doors, and it’s a relatively new venue. Would I go back? Yes of course, to try the dishes I was unable to order due to being out of stock. I would love to see a few additions to the menu, Calamansi both fresh and as a drink, Sinigang, and would love to see Halo Halo. On to the rating? Okay, my rule of thumb is to give a maximum of 4 stars on my first visit, as a five-star rating is mainly for consistency.
