About Koha Restaurant & Bar

Koha Restaurant & Bar is a family-run modern European restaurant in London with three decades of experience behind it. An in-house baker makes the breads, and the kitchen produces its desserts fresh each day, including a chocolate delice. The menu opens with scallops as a starter, and the shrimp ravioli comes with a sauce. The kitchen works with local suppliers and takes in ingredients fresh each day. A bar serves cocktails and wine by the bottle. The restaurant sits down a side street just off the main road and accommodates pre-theatre dinners. The team also makes recommendations and suggests amendments to dishes for guests with dietary restrictions or allergies.

Customer Review Summary

Diners most often come for the ravioli, with the shrimp version called the highlight of one evening and another reviewer praising extra sauce added on request. Scallops are close behind, along with the duck, lamb, ribeye, lobster and gnocchi. Desserts draw their own praise, including a chocolate delice and a melting chocolate dessert with a touch of cinnamon, and several mention a crisp white wine, excellent cocktails and one of the best coffees a reviewer had tasted. Service is described as welcoming and attentive, with servers helping with food recommendations and amendments for allergies, and staff timing a pre-theatre dinner so it finished with time to spare. The main criticism comes from one reviewer who found the cheese plate disappointing: too much mediocre cheese with ordinary crackers, served quite cold, with no explanation of each cheese. The same reviewer was let down that a dessert they wanted was missing from the menu. Several reviewers say they plan to return, and one mentions a table making a fuss of an elderly mother.

    “We went for a supper not knowing anything about the restaurant and we just loved it. Everything was perfect, from food, which was truly delicious, to service, which was amazing. Our server was very polite, helpful, friendly yet professional. We'll certainly come again.”
  • Nancy Grossman
    “Good service, excellent cocktails and food. The starters and main were very good. Only real disappointment was the cheese plate - expected much better from this restaurant. Too much mediocre cheese served with ordinary crackers on a dinner plate. Too much cheese for one person. No explanation of what as what and not a distinctive cheese in the bunch. Served quite cold too. That was really too bad. They also didn’t have one dessert on the menu that we really wanted. That was also disappointing. So lovely place but room for improvement with the desserts….”

    “We had the most wonderful lunch at Koha followed but what I think is one of the best coffees I’ve ever had. Drilon, our waiter was superb!”
  • Jenny Foy
    “⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An Exceptional Dining Experience at Koha Restaurant I’ve been here with my husband many times. I had a wonderful dining experience at Koha Restaurant. Every dish was beautifully presented and full of flavor, showing great attention to detail from the kitchen. The scallops were incredibly fresh, tender, and perfectly cooked, paired with a delicate sauce that enhanced their natural sweetness. The shrimp ravioli was the highlight of the evening—fresh, juicy shrimp wrapped in delicate pasta and served with a rich yet well-balanced sauce, complemented by sweet cherry tomatoes and fresh herbs. To finish, the dessert was both stunning and delicious. The combination of fresh seasonal fruits, creamy cheesecake, and smooth ice cream created the perfect ending to the meal. The atmosphere was warm and elegant, making it an ideal spot for a special occasion or a relaxing dinner. The staff were attentive, friendly, and provided excellent service throughout the evening. Overall, Koha Restaurant exceeded my expectations in every way. Outstanding food, beautiful presentation, and exceptional hospitality. I highly recommend it and will definitely be back. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”
