Mr Todiwala's Petiscos - Buckhurst Hill

I and woman have just returned from a beautiful evening in this fabulous restaurant. the ambiente was loved for a Saturday night, eating was simply incredible together with the wein too. attentive staff and the owner steve was a joy when they happen to follow in the buckhurst hill area they do not follow the crowd, they make this aim I guarantee that they will not be disappointed. I and my wife can't wait to visit again.

Simply the best. If I had to only eat one thing for the rest of my life, it would be Mr Todiwala's prawn dumplings, but everything my partner and I've eaten there over half a dozen or so visits has been truly delicious. Looking at the other reviews, I'm surprised to see some people complaining about the size and relative price of the dishes. Petiscos are Portuguese tapas style dishes, so you are meant to share several plates among the table. Personally I think the prices are very reasonable, but I will happily pay for great quality anyway. We always order the dumplings and the seafood rice, and the meatballs and cod fritters are also favourites. The service is so friendly; Steve the manager gets to know all his customers and remembers us every time, and the Portuguese wines are delicious. There are so many wonderful restaurants in the area and we eat out frequently! but Mr Todiwala's is our favourite by a mile.

The place is amazing! Cosy and well decorated! Muito simpático! The staff is very nice, Steve knows Portugal very well and has a fabulous taste and knowledge on Portuguese wines. The fusion between Portuguese food and Goan is wonderful! Being from Portugal and having family from Goa, I have the authority to say it 's like eating at my cuisine 's, and there 's nothing better then food that takes back home. Petiscos is a Portuguese word for small plates, but I assure you that you will feel satisfied. Dine like if you were from Portugal! Appetizer plate with Portuguese wine or Super Bock (best Portuguese beer) dessert coffee (expresso) cheirinho Madeira wine or Oporto wine.

Dishes are either exceptionally nice or just ordinary. A shame as it's food is intriguingly different to other restaurants Service: Dine in Meal type: Dinner Price per person: £40–50 Food: 4 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
