Been going here for some years. Always busy giving value and great food. Returned last night after sometime, found the same friendly efficient service; a suitable wine list; and African/Asian dishes that were full of flavour. Continues to be on our list of favourites! More

Always busy, always delicious food, at a decent price. I’ve been here a number of times over the years, but have never written a review. We went on a Thursday night and while we had no reservation, they were able to seat us if we ate at the bar (it seems most of the male/female couples were seated at the... More

We ate a selection of tapas style entrees. Definately recommend the Sousaties, the Tagine with Fig and the fried potatoes. You can BYO and there is a bottle shop across the street. Good delection of wine by the glass or bottle as well. More

Radio Cairo has been around for so long for a reason - the food is really good. They have a good choice of different tastes and the variation means there is always something for everyone on the menu. Highly recommended if you are in the area. More

I went to this place for the first time last night and I have to say the food was sooo good! We had the lamb, which was cooked lovely, and had a tasty marinade and the ribs which were amazing!!! It's a nice change to have African cuisine as you don't see it often. Also, we didn't have a booking... More

Great great food, never had anything I didn't like - good choice of spicy food. Good, friendly and quick service, bussling atmosphere (if slightly noisy) . Good to share a dinner with a partner and a glass of wine or a whole table of friends! Yum yum! More

Always good, always consistent - I just love the African flavour - the lamb has the most amazing spices and whilst I sometimes find spare ribs too messy, at Radio Cairo they are amazing. The restaurant is always crowded so perhaps the trick is to miss the theatre crowd who are heading off to the Orpheus Cinema and come later... More
