Akoko London Reviews from The Last Year
Unique & brilliant
Outstanding food, amazing service and one-of-a-kind Akoko drinks pairing. We'll be back and we'll be telling everyone we know about his unique and brilliant experience.
Simply the best
Incredible. Service second to none, incredible setting. Head chef a master and Etienne our waiter the epitome of his profession
Wonderful lunch with fantastic flavours
A tasting menu which provides wonderful and exciting flavours. No disappointments. The kitchen team is at the top of its game. Service is relaxed, friendly and knowledgeable. The food is obviously taken very seriously. You can taste the freshness and work which has gone into every dish. Such clever and balanced spicing. One of the best restaurants in London right now. (I think the wine list could be improved though . It needs some more choice in the mid-price range ). Don’t hesitate. Go.
Absolutely fantastic food and service
Located in Fitzrovia,short walk from Goodge Street or Tottenham court tube stop a modern minimalistic deco in the restaurant with a fantastic chef table Welcoming service staff with wonderful views of the kitchen with ability to interact with the chef, Aji Akokomi. The short lunch menu which was four courses and good value for money the first course a chicken parfait top with truffles on a fried dumpling- beautiful dish with great amalgamation of flavours. The next course was blow Tocrched mackerel with moi moi with a vatapa concentrated sauce- another amazing dish. The main of lamb with Jollof rice was interesting. The rice is a combination of cooked rice with crispy rice and some greens on the top. The lamb was unfortunately a tad bit dry. I had an extra dish to the short menu which was an addition which was the ox tongue skewer with bone marrow sauce, which was again another excellent dish. The dessert of Uda ice cream which is a pod, rather smoky with a coffee mouse and chocolate base was again excellent. The petite four of the sesame seed triangle was amazing. The 15% service was deserving as service was very attentive and interactive and sitting sitting at the chef table made a wonderful experience. The Negroni with a twist, and the highball whiskey were both very good. The interior was very lovely, was quite peaceful with good interaction of the chefs at different stations, creating their courses which is highly entertaining and very insightful to most proving provided. Highly recommended and certainly will be returning and I hear there will be a menu change in March, so perhaps then.
Jaded palate? Look no further! Wow!
Recently I have become rather weary of paying high prices for very nice and pretty but ultimately forgettable food. This place has dragged me out of my doldrums :-) I am almost shocked at the level of delicious novelty in the flavours and presentation. Every dish was exceptional, each a new experience in taste. Mostly on the spicy side but never actually hot. I don't think I can convey much more about the individual dishes except that if they don't wow you with the first bite then the subtlety of the flavours will wow you as you prepare to take the next. My favourite for you to look forward to though was the jollof rice, some sort of inherited and legendary magical powers applied by the chef to create this explosion of savouriness and texture. Service with a smile, absolutely spot on. Definitely deserves a Michelin star, both for food and service. Will be back!
Great experience, brilliant service and food!
We were seated at the chef’s counter where we could see all the magic happen and it was magic indeed. Food was served beautifully, it was tasteful with just the right amount of spices. The wines we were recommended (1 white, 1 red, 1 sweet) went perfectly with the dishes. Service was excellent; shout out to Jordan, our waiter, who was very attentive and lovely throughout the evening. Great experience, 100% recommend.
A world of flavour
A short walk from the tube and a lovely, warm, stylish interior with a nice open kitchen where you can observe the head chef leading his team. Grand food, a ton of interesting flavours and a knowledgeable staff keen to share the stories of the food. Some very bold (the famous ox-tongue and liberal use of scotch bonnet elsewhere) whereas some had a lot more subtlety to it (the ayamase in particular had wonderful notes). Compared to many other restaurants in a similar class+location, the tasting menu still remains at a surprisingly low price point. For some it may sound silly talking about a £120 meal as "good value" but all things considered I think it delivers on that front. Between our group we had all three drinks pairings. Wine was a decent mix, the Akoko pairing had some twists on classic cocktails, some African wines (including a Moroccan), and a Nigerian Guinness (worth trying, strong and smooth). The soft pairing was great fun, particularly the smoked pineapple drink - if you're happy to forgo the booze for a bit I would definitely recommend the soft pairing the most. Honestly, the food I couldn't fault, but there were elements of the service I felt could have been tightened up. The drinks seemed to arrive up to ten minutes before the dish they were supposed to be paired with. I also felt the waiter was more pushy than I'd usually expect when trying to upsell the additional tatale course with the tasting menu (the tatale was decent, but I'd rather have it without the caviar and worked into the main tasting menu). One unfortunate issue is that after discussion it appeared the food had too much gluten in it for my coeliac wife (who can sometimes handle a little bit, but there's nuance). I'm not going to tell the chefs how to cook their cuisine, but being contacted about this to discuss it four days ahead of time, when I had booked about six weeks in advance and mentioned it wasn't great. Again, another fine fine point on the service that I hope they tighten up in future. Overall, I definitely think Akoko has a solid place on the London scene for years to come. The food is must-try and I'm super excited to see what else is going to come out of that kitchen.
A brilliant showcase
Unexpected but anticipated- remarkable!! One of the best dining experiences I have enjoyed. The attention to detail around flavours that are both familiar and new is delightful. The attendant wine pairing was bliss. All served by staff who matched their enthusiasm for what they brought with care for the customers- thank you espoused to Frank!
Incredible dining experience
I went with a friend for lunch but we opted for the full dinner menu. It has to be one of the most enjoyable dining experiences we have both had. Incredible interesting food. Excellent friendly service. I particularly liked the Akoko pairings where it involved not just wine but also had cocktails and beers for some pairings. Cost a fortune but worth every penny. Would go again.
Best African !
WoW Africain cuisine to the next level. Every détails was perfect ! Good service, good ambiance, good wine and amazing wine

Agreed. Ultimately not addressing this month after month is clearly resulting in a drop in certain venue’s rankings & sales.

Need to cancel a bid, not getting a response… how do I do it? |
Click on "Take off the Market Option" in your portfolio
Working on your bid? |
Your bid has been “matched” with a reservation. From the time a reservation has been located, the seller of the reservation must connect with moderator to give transfer information for reservation. If the seller;however, does NOT respond to reservation transfer, then your bid is reprocessed and returns to the first step, which is connecting your request to a reservation.
Process after bid is accepted. |
Hey @EvocativeFold67, welcome to appointmenttrader! Once the reservation is in your portfolio, you definitely own the timeslot, the review team would not have approved the trade if the reservation wasn't confirmed - so you are going :-) Judging from your post you bid today and are going tomorrow - don't worry as long as you initiated the name transfer, you are good - the transfer service has to work with the opening hours of the reservation team of the respective venue. You will likely see the transfer confirmation a couple hours before your reservation time.
Where do the Reservations on AppointmentTrader come from? |
Mostly from people who don't need their reservations or appointments any longer. AT has no relationship with places listed and acts as a platform connecting buyers and sellers making sure that listed reservations are real and that privacy is not compromised when transacting.
What happens if my bid expires unanswered? |
Hey @FluffyStar64, thanks for the question! When you place your bid the amount gets transferred in a deposit account, the second you either cancel your bid or a few minutes after the bid expires the funds are moved back into your main account from where you can refund it to your payment method or use for other transactions.
How to list a Nobu Malibu reservation
Hi, I have a reservation to Nobu Malibu, but since they don't do text or e-mail confirmations I haven't been able to get my reservation posted. I have posted a screen shot of the phone conversation on the listing, but it keeps getting rejected. If anyone has an idea how I can get it approved that would be much appreciated, thanks!

I posted a request for a reservation this Thursday between 6:30 and 8 pm and initially the potential seller said it would be fulfilled by today. Now they changed it that they will only fulfill it by 5pm that same day. Basically I would have an hour and a half to get to the restaurant. Is this allowed?

Give the best answerApp
This app is a catfish and overrun by people programming “bots” and algorithms. It makes it frustrating for someone not well versed in this to have any movement. I thought this would be a fun side hustle, but unfortunately it’s become like any other “side hustle”. Don’t waste your time with this crap. Not a question, just a suggestion. Also don’t pay these fake “gurus” hundreds of dollars to teach you. Might as well sign up for a software class. 😕
