Wilson's: Reviews & Ratings
My husband and I popped in today after hearing good things and wow this is a really great addition to Lewisham! The service is outstanding (you really don’t get service like that anywhere else!) and the food is innovative and delicious. We went for lunch and the menu, albeit limited, was fantastic. The profiteroles were incredible. I am very keen to come back for dinner to try out more dishes.
Second visit and it was just as good as the first. Martini was so good my wife was mildly upset she hadn't ordered it. Food was explosively good (absolutely get at least one of the 'bites' to start even if you order less from the rest of the menu - they are sublime). Overcommitted and had to skip dessert this time which was our only regret. It isn't cheap but it is absolutely worth it!
Definitely a 5 star meal. What an evening out. Our first time visiting Wilson's and we were not let down. The moment we entered the vibe was set. I felt like I was on holiday. The staff are friendly and brilliant at what they do. The food is seasonal and full of flavour. Every dish we had was utterly delicious. Compliments to the chef and to all the staff. You have created a gem of a place.
Our first time at Wilson’s and we were so impressed, we went back the next night. With breakfast at sister cafe Oscar’s across the road to tide us over. Brown crab rarebit was so special and the cod caponata was one of the best things I’ve eaten in a long time. Background music was carefully curated and the staff are lovely. Thanks for two exceptional meals. We will be back!
Superb good. Lovely ambience. Amazing staff. They even went above and beyond to package up food for us when our babysitter bailed and we had to eat at home! And it was still delicious. Such a gem to have as our local restaurant. Highly recommend!
Wilson's, a great option for a chilled fancy and tasty dinner! With my partner, we decided to finaly try out this new restaurant in Ladywell. We got lucky to get a table while on the waiting list and it was definitely worth the wait. The staff gave us a warm welcome, most of whom we know and love from Oscar cafe and Plenty shop of the same street. The decors and atmosphere are of very good touch, making it a comfy and chilled place for drinks and food. We tried the rhubarb spritz and soda to start off, which were very refreshing, with the Copa charcuterie and breads plate. We shared 3 starters: goats cheese profiteroles, beef shin nuggets and asparagus in filo with dippy egg. They all came very nicely plated, particularly loving the asparagus presentation as well as the tasty horseradish cream coming with the nugggets, also very meaty. We then shared the lamb navarin with potatoes : no need to say that it was deliciously melting in the mouth. The crispy onions were a lovely surprise and tasty addition to the butterhead lettuce side. We were recommended a Cotes du Rhone red wine which was the perfect pairing for the lamb. Oh and we tried the rhubarb millefeuille for dessert which they nailed on the sweetness level, only coming from the rubbard itself. The food delivery was fast but timely, always letting us have plenty of time in between the courses. The bill for both of us came to 125 including the charge, which we thought was reasonable for the food and drink's quality and quantity. We will be back to check some of the other dishes as we have been told the menu is changing partially weekly, depending on seasonal goodies. This is a very welcome addition to Ladywell neirgbourhood, and a place that deserves to be listed on Michelin's Guide.
Stumbled upon this gem as we were walking through Ladywell, the food was delicious, (those goat's cheese profiteroles were unreal!) the staff were very friendly and gave some great recommendations and the playlist was ace too! The menu changes every week, so can't wait for our next visit!
We had such a lovely time here, it was my birthday and the staff were so lovely and wrote me a really sweet card! The food was all 10/10 and the service was amazing - they even altered one of the dishes to make it vegetarian for us. Can’t wait to come back and try a different weeks menu!! 10/10 vibes all around and great music choices too :)
