Turo Turo Tooting

We've been hearing so much about Turo-Turo for quite a while and it did not disappoint. I've been to a few Filipino restaurants in London but this place hits different. The moment you step in, you're greeted with such a warm and friendly welcome, something quite elusive these days. The food was amazing, the place was relaxing and homey, and the service was absolutely impeccable! Our server, Justin was lovely and friendly and went out of his way to explain things to us, and made our stay so pleasant and comfortable. But everyone in the restaurant was so friendly. It was also lovely to have a quick chat with the owner and Chef who was so hands-on in the kitchen. We had the Beef Kare-Kare, Inasal Chicken, Ensaladang Talong, and Turon for dessert! All superb! This place's story is inspiring, and it makes so much sense to have their own space now. Will definitely be back, and looking forward to having a boodle feast next time around. Highly recommend!

Having been to Turo Turo when they first opened, I knew I wanted to have my birthday party there, so I hired out the restaurant for a Sunday afternoon party. The communication with Rex and his team was excellent, and they answered all my questions so I felt safe that the day would go smoothly. We had to pre-order from a set menu, which was good, as everyone knew what to expect. The food was amazing, and the staff attentive. Front of house, Justin, ensured that the day went without hiccup. The barman created some off menu mocktails which were delicious! And of course we had karaoke to top it off! My family and friends had a great time and we will definitely be coming back.

We went for lunch! Very nice food - compliments to the chefs! Great service - Went the extra mile for our family! We truly appreciated it! Will come back again!

Came here especially because I had been going to the pop up in Holborn and am so pleased they now have a permanent spot. The food is amazing, every dish we had was excellent. We were served by Imi who was a delight and was great with his recommendations of what to order. We will definitely be back!

We came for the bottomless brunch thinking both food and drinks were unlimited — turns out it was just the drinks. The promo title was really misleading, and we only found out when we asked for more food. That aside, the food was genuinely great — tasty and full of flavour. Ambience was lovely too, with good Filipino music playing in the background. Service was a bit slow, maybe because it was quite busy. Good thing we got a discount, otherwise the full price wouldn’t have felt worth it given the confusion. Still, a nice vibe overall. Reply to Rex: Hi Rex, Thank you for taking the time to reply. I appreciate the passion and effort you clearly put into your concept and food, which I did enjoy, and made sure to highlight in my review. That said, I think it’s important to acknowledge the perspective of a first-time guest who genuinely felt misled. While I now understand that “bottomless brunch” typically refers to unlimited drinks in London, not everyone may interpret it that way, especially when the title doesn’t explicitly clarify that food is not included as part of the “bottomless” offering. Clearer wording in the promotional material could help avoid this kind of confusion going forward. As for the pricing and value, I didn’t dispute that I had a good amount of drinks, and yes, the food was delicious. But my review wasn’t about quantity; it was about expectation versus reality, and how that affects the overall experience. Regardless of discount, transparent communication sets the tone for guest satisfaction. I wish you all the best, and again, I do commend the creativity of the Boodle Fight and the good food. Hopefully, this feedback can be taken constructively.

The food was amazing! We had the ginger bagoong wings which were absolutely dreamy delicious. Salmon kinilaw, chicken inasal, sisig, chicken bicol express and turon. Everything was yummy! The calamansi mojitos were great too. I loved the very friendly, casual and quick service. The manager Imi was very fun and attentive. If we lived close, we'd be regulars there. Definitely recommend this place.

Me and my partner heard about Turo Turo through positive reviews on social media so thought we would make the one hour journey by car to come and see for ourselves by having dinner at the restaurant. The car journey was worth it as all the food we ordered was delicious. The taste, spice levels and presentation of the food were excellent. The authenticity makes you feel as if you are in the Philippines. A hidden gem of a restaurant in South London. Highly recommended for Filipino food enthusiasts. P.S. I am Kalbo by nickname and by nature 😅

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.
