Number 22 - Southwark

Delicious food and a great selection.Very friendly staff who go out of their way to be helpful and explain the menu.Great atmosphere. Best restaurant in Dulwich and Herne Hill area.

Excellent top quality tapas style dinner. Every dish we had was delicious but try the pork cheek. Good quality wine and sherry too. JV

Having previously (pre flood) visited and thoroughly enjoyed the tapas I was so disappointed by Number 22 (post flood). We were literally squeezed into horrible seating where the bar jutted out to the extent that it almost touched our collarbones, this is despite asking to be moved (half the restaurant was empty). At the end of a pretty mediocre meal- a heritage tomato salad (over 5 pounds) ended up being one beef tomato and 4 cherry tomatoes, barely salted and hardly oiled, I mentioned to the manager how uncomfortable the seating was. He agreed, admitting to have spotted this issue when he had first arrived at the restaurant, but a run on bookings meant the table was utilised. I was to be reassured that snagging would be complete in January and the bar redesigned. Very poor and cynical customer service.

Delicious and inventive tapas, the kind of quality you would expect from a West End establishment at local prices. I will be going again!

I have visited this small buzzy tapas restaurant a number of times and the food and service are always excellent. Number 22 is definitely the best restaurant in Herne Hill.
