Been there #22 Tas

15/20

Tas
33 The Cut, Waterloo, London, SE1 8LF

Tas is one of these places that you hear from word of mouth and rightly so because a friend of mine took us there last Wednesday.

The evening was quite warm and thunderstorms were coming our way. The restaurant located not far away from Waterloo and minutes away from the famous Old Vic theater, was almost packed with people inside and outside on the terrace.

The place looked very lively and you could feel a strong team spirit behind the operations. Open kitchen, many waiters and nice food coming in and out around you. The food takes its origin from Turkey. Starters vary from Humus, Aubergine Puree, Smoked Salmon with Parsley (Tutsulu Samon) and more. I took for a main course a delicious steak of lamb with hot couscous. The lamb was cooked to perfection and the meat was really tender and nicely flavored with oregano. For drinks, we experienced a new world Malbec wine from Argentina priced at £25 a bottle. The staff is quick and very helpful when you ask questions regarding the menu. After two hours, our party of four was very satisfied with a bill of £25 per head. Definitely a restaurant to try if you are around Waterloo.

It's the Old Vic not Vicar!

There have been a number of resturants on this site over the last fifteen years - none seem to last. As an alternative try North Bank at the north end of the wobbly bridge by Tate Modern - very quiet at weekends and fantastic food.
