Food and accompanying wines were all great. Service was excellent. Shame we weren’t in the main room but it was still nice in the other one.
Great food and wine. Very kind employees and unique combination of ingredients.
Set menu and wine pairing is incredible! You should go!
Absolutely delicious from start to finish. Interesting wine choices, and as a gluten-free diner I was perfectly catered for (but do let them know in advance). Will certainly be going back, and very Covid-safe so a good option at the moment :)
The food was outstanding and the hospitality was wonderful. We will definitely return soon
Really, really good food. Really REALLY good - probably best value tasting menu I've ever eaten - absolutely loved it.
Covid screens which have been put in are a bit strange and do ruin the environment - they don't actually cover the people sitting down and are quite short so seem a bit redundant as could travel over/around - would be better to better space seating although understand it's a small space so can't be very easy for the restaurant. Didn't feel comfortable in one of the seats so we moved.
Nice quaint restaurant. Lovely staff. The wine pairing was a tad expensive for what it was. Interesting menu but not good for someone who doesn’t eat pork or want vegetarian. The menu does change frequently. So we were caught with having pork which even though was nice... wouldn’t be our usual choice. As the evening got on.. they put music on and the ambiance was nicer as the tables were filling up. Ugne was delightful & very informative.
Casa Fofo was a wonderful trip out for a spectacular dinner.
The food was fantastic and it felt like excellent value.
We both had the wine flight and really enjoyed hearing about each choice from the staff.
Would thoroughly recommend!
Fantastic, inventive food, friendly staff, good music and a cute small space. Absolutely lovely evening at Casa Fofó!
Lovely quiet restaurant with good atmosphere. All the food was really interesting and well made. We particularly enjoyed the starting snack and dessert. Everything was beautifully prepared though maybe lacked the wow factor I had been expecting flavourwise. It was more of a treat for something different and of high quality. We really enjoyed the organic wines. Great service - attentive but relaxed. I would probably come back to see what a new menu was like as I am aware that the menu changes often. Thank you for a really enjoyable evening.
Really good, inventive dishes. The mushroom ice-cream in the dessert was particularly memorable, and surprisingly delicious! We had a 6 course set menu, which was good value. Two of our party couldn't eat gluten, and were very well catered for, with special gluten-free options provided, rather than just the normal dishes with the gluten element left out, as is often the case. The only downside was that the wines were expensive (the cheapest bottle was £39).
Excellent seasonal Menu and a very interesting an unique wine tasting. Fantastic value for money and always worth the experience. Will visit again!
Really good, would recommend!! The food was delicious and the wine pairing was really well paired
Innovative, unpretentious and totally delicious...
Lovely interesting food, love the variable menu and wine choices also good. Waiting staff top notch, informative and knowledgable whilst ensuring we did not feel interrupted constantly. Great pauses between courses to fully enjoy our experience - sometimes feel tasting menus are rushed through to ensure all courses delivered. Will return again without question
Amazing Service, great food, lovely vibe and the wine pairings I would recommend to anyone, will definitely be back!
This is food that brings a smile to your face. There are crazy combinations - a black garlic mousseline in a choux bun with strawberry ice cream! A beef broth with almond ravioli, which I could have eaten for ever. But they work. And it's so good it brings a smile to your face with every mouthful. This isn't just brilliant cooking, it's joyous cooking. Just what we need to lift our spirits in the current gloom .
Really coherent and delicious food, innovative yet familiar spot on and great service lovely and unobtrusive
All around amazing. Best value set menu in the area!
Fantastic food and service, only let down was we were downstairs in the cellar and away from seeing the chefs in action. Suggest you request a table upstairs!
Thoroughly enjoyed the experience, from the starter to the cafe gourmand (although no coffee left at the time) at the end. The chef's creativity was simply amazing - some newish restaurants in Hackney tend to feature Japanese ingredients but sadly they don't seem to have the right 'tongue' to taste, mushing up everything only to confuse customers. Hats off to the chef and the team here - I'm glad that this tiny restaurant is in my neighbourhood:-)
The only (although minor) letdown was the main served to my non-meat-eating friend, substituting the meat dish... if adding another seafood was difficult then the fish that came earlier in the course could have come as the main in a bit bigger portion. Cost performance-wise it didn't look too nice to us customers' eyes while I do understand that the restaurant has its own cost issues to accommodate every customer's needs.
That said, once again both the food and service were excellent and I'm sure I'll come back here again very soon!
Beautiful unique flavours, stunning presentation, can't wait to return! Thank you for a wonderful evening :)
What an incredible place! Casa Fofo is a hidden gem with super service and even more delicious food. Every bite was a unique experience and the environment made it even better. Thank you so much for a wonderful evening! Absolutely amazing.
it was an outstanding experience! lovely hidden with great natural wines and subtly exquisite food. highly recommend!!
Interesting ideas and really tasty food, nice the secret garden too
Amazing food and I will definitely go back again.
Casa Fofo is a lovely tiny restaurant which offers a very well curated menu. Food is delicious and a true palate experience. I would suggest the wine pairing should get more explanations by the waiters, especially for non-experts like myself!
Amazing food, fantastic service. Just great all around.
Outstanding experience as always. The best restaurant in Hackney.
Really delicious food, intimate peaceful ambience. Lovely wines. Really impressed.
Beautiful courtyard.
Attentive service.
Delicious food.
We were taken on chef's wonderful journey with veg, fish and meat. 6 courses melted away in your mouth.
great wine to match the courses.
I can highly recommend to visit, as romantic dinner for two or in a larger group.
try and book the courtyard before it gets too cold.
We will. x
I went for the wine pairing to go alongside the set 7 course tasting menu. The staff were fantastic, going into lots of detail about each wine and why they were paired with each course. The chef presented each dish, which is a nice touch. The food was very good for the cost. The outside area is very nice when it's warm.
Absolutely outstanding! Best restaurant in London
Beautiful food - we had the vegan tasting menu. I've been twice in just a few months. Cant wait to go back already!
Great food. They put a lot of thought into the veggie menu, which isn’t always the case at restaurants. The mains would rival any meat dish! We had 8 courses and were stuffed by the end. Really friendly staff and good atmosphere.
Super nice food and people! I hope I can come back with my friend soon.
Dinner there was a real treat. We did had requested ahead of time for one vegetarian meal and the other went with the regular menu. Both of us thoroughly enjoyed every single bite. Each course had something special about it and looked beautiful. We also did the wine pairing which was great and did not feel “too boozy”. Great selection and glass size. Staff and service was great. We appreciated the info received for each course and wine. The restaurant also felt very clean and safe and we appreciated the steps they took to make us feel “safe” at times like these, such as staff masks and hand sanitizing of guests and serving staff upon our arrival. Overall a great find and we will certainly be back.
I had the most wonderful time at Casa Fofò! Beautiful food, loved the ambience of the place but really well socially distanced as well.
We had a delightful evening at Casa Fofó very attentive service and deliciously inventive dishes. Try the cheese with onion ice cream!!!! Yum
Beautiful food. The cheese course was amazing , never eaten anything like it , so so clever! Thanks guys.
