Unbelievably good! - Edit
The food here is so delicately beautiful, the caesar salad is the best salad I've ever had in my life. Have been here for both lunch and breakfast. The lunch menu was so incredible, especially the desserts! And for breakfast we had pancakes and a full English. They were so good. The portions are small for the price so it's definitely only a place to visit on special occasions, but you won't regret it.

Raw vegan food - Edit
I'll start by admitting that I'm not the biggest fan of 100% raw food, yet despite this I enjoyed my experience at Nama. My friend had vouchers that meant a three course lunch inclusive of a glass of prosecco came at a bargain price, and she invited me along to try out the food.
Read moreWe shared a cheeseboard starter, I had the classic pomodoro pizza for the main course, and a blueberry cheesecake for dessert. The food was all beautifully presented, and I quite liked the starter and main course, but they were dense and very filling (probably should have gone with a salad starter!). The star of the show was hands down the blueberry cheesecake which was one of the best vegan cheesecakes I've had and I would happily recommend that to anyone. The staff were polite and attentive, and whilst the tables were all quite close together, my friend and I were there when the place was quiet, so that didn't cause us any problems.
Personally I think I prefer my savoury courses NOT raw, but it was an interesting experience and I wouldn't be opposed to returning and sampling some of the other dishes. I'd go back just to try the other desserts or for the blueberry cheesecake any day of the week, haha.
The place is pricey if you don't have the deal we were using, but so are most other places in London.
Pros: the lovely blueberry cheesecake, beautiful presentation , nice atmosphere
Cons: expensive , the main courses were very dense , tables very close together

love this place - Edit
I've tried a nice selection of the food here and I've loved everything I've eaten. Rich, one of the owners is lovely too. He has a real passion for food and wellbeing and has always been helpful with talking me through what im eating and how it helps my body and mind. There's plenty of seating but it gets busy so id definately book in if you're keen. Highly reccommend the "cheese" plate. And the chocolate shake for desert really stood out.

Raw - Edit
I have been to Nama a couple of times. And I have not been blown away on any occasion. The food is beautifully presented, yes, but I find the flavour is often the extreme - too salty or too bland. Last time I was there, the pomodoro courgetti my partner had was just so bland and lacked sauce it was quite incredible, whereas my terrine (I think) was so salty, I could not really stomach it. The starter was quite nice with raw breads and dips. Dips were great. And we shared a dessert which was ok, just very very dense, which is usually the problem with raw desserts.
Read moreFood really is beautiful, but I find the flavours are usually very off.
Pros: raw and vegan, beautiful
Cons: too salty or too bland, expensive, may be lengthy process to get a waiter's attention

Nice raw food restaurant! - Edit
A raw food place anywhere in the world should for me personally always deserve 5 star's, now it's of course not the goal of a review, it should provide some more objective inside for future visitors.
Read moreThe location and interior are very nice, the staff is lovely and the food is amazing.
They propose a lot of raw food lunch, dinner, desserts...
The tiramisu is the best I've ever eaten!
There is also a little shop so you can buy some things to take with you.
Pros: Amazing raw food choice, Great taste
Cons: None

delicious - Edit
I dined here with my partner and he had the no meat pizza, I had the lasagne. We were both blown away by how tasty the food was, we weren't expecting it to be so delicious or filling. We had desserts each too and they were incredible. The staff also brought us some spiced almonds to eat while we were waiting on our mains as it was a little longer than usual, and we really appreciated that
Read morePros: every dish was very tasty

Great food and tea, but pricey - Edit
Great quality tea and food but the portions are small and the prices high. That's what I remember from my visit 4/5 years ago! Had bit of a posh vibe about it. Not the place to go if you want to leave feeling full but great if you're in the area and need somewhere to stop off to recharge with a tea and a light snack.
Read morePros: good quality food
Cons: expensive for the portion size

A must-try!! - Edit
Nama Foods is honestly the best vegan restaurant I have ever tasted! I never expected raw food to taste so good! I had the pesto pizza and the tiramisu. The staff was also very friendly! If I ever go back to London, I'll definitely return to that restaurant.
Read morePros: amazing food!!!, very friendly staff

surprisingly excellent food - Edit
I was nervous about picking this restaurant as all raw did not sound good to me. But I was very pleasantly surprised. The Standard of cooking was very high, very precise and delicious. It is not very cheap but we would highly recommend Nama and plan to go again.

Pleasantly surprised - Edit
I went with mixed expectations of raw food, given I'm not a fan of nuts and the usual raw cake offerings. However I was very pleasantly surprised by the food. Between our group of 4, we had the seaweed salad, the courgette pasta with truffle and two full English Breakfasts. I think we were all pleased with what we had, though I think the cashew egg was received with some suspicion by the omnis in our group. The only slight disappointment was that there was only one nut-free dessert on the menu and they'd run out of it. Pricing seemed reasonable and I liked it so much I would definitely come back to try some more of the menu.
Read morePros: Interesting and different, but tasty food
Cons: Only one nut-free dessert option, Not a lot of atmosphere

good raw food - Edit
Food is great at Nama. Looks can be deceiving, plate of food can look small but you are certainly full when the plate is finished. Only negative is tables are v close together so it's a bit of a tight squeeze and not much privacy.

hmm - Edit
Explored this new eatery with a Time Out offer for three courses and a drink for £23.50. Quite a bargain when you compare the restaurants usual prices! After leaving still hungry after our three courses I can see why.
Read moreWhile the food was enjoyable, it was not remarkable, and the portions left wanting. My companion ordered a 'pizza' which came as two delicate slices, and my tartin was described as a 'sandwich' but was the size of half a slice of bread.
Ambience in the upstairs hall was lacking, with cold white walls and small tables cramped together, much less inviting than I was hoping while showing a new vegan what London had to offer.
Would consider returning to try the 'main' unskrimped menu, but worried it will just be more of the same...

Good food - Edit
The food is really tasty and good quality, but I didn't like the place. We had a table on the ground floor and it was so tiny that it was not enough room for our plates and drinks... And the tables are so close to each other that you almost sit together with strangers. (There are more tables downstairs so maybe it's more spacious there...). The staff was not very friendly and atmosphere not warm and pleasant.

expensive and uncomfortable ambient - Edit
i had the pad thai. It was delicious but very cold like it came out already made from the fridge.The room is tiny for six tiny tables and the acoustics are terrible with everyone trying to have a conversation.The staff does a smile but is fake and they are not polite.A place that tries to be posh but is the wrong business to do it. We vegans like relaxed environments.Very expensive, on top of the bill there is a 12.5 per cent surcharge WHICH was not optional on my bill.
