    Very delicious meal with generous portion. Great service. The only downside is the food can take a little long so don’t come too hungry. Bring some friends for some catch-up and to enjoy a delightful meal together.

    Great food and service. The hummus was really delicious. My friend is vegetarian so we only tried vegetarian items and they were all prefect. The atmosphere was great. There was only one staff so service was a little slow but worth the wait. And she was very friendly too.

    Went here for the first time last night 26/09/2023 with our grandson and they serve authentic Moroccan/Algerian cuisine including baba ghanoush, couscous, meat and fish tagines. Very nice and we ate too much!

    I really enjoyed the food here, charming North African vibe with the decor and softly playing music. The reason I didn’t give it four stars is simply the stacked chairs at the entrance and the hot soft drinks. Also they didn’t know what beers were in stock and there was a lot of food handling with bare hands- lime wedges stuck in our drinks with hands that had just picked up other diners’ plates etc...no thanks! It’s unfortunate as the food was fantastic but the bar and table service was a bit below par.

    I took my wife here for our anniversary dinner, this was a week day due to childcare and the restaurant still had a lovely atmosphere, enough people to give a feeling of being in your own little bubble. We had a mixed platter to share to start, it was fantastic a very good size with a lovely selection. We both had a Tagine for our mains, I had the meatball with egg and the wife had lamb shank, they both came out extremely hot and the smell was amazing, neither dishes disappointed they were both beautiful. I also a had a pear and almond tart that I would highly recommend, a great finish to a lovely meal certainly worth a try. Staff were great very attentive without being intrusive. Also gave us a desert for free as it was our anniversary very nice touch, thank you.

    The meal was fine, nothing special There's a minimal wine list so I was surprised and disappointed that there was just one glass of the Malbec left.

    We had a great late Valentine's Day evening meal at Numidie. It's a lovely little restaurant (and bar downstairs), very intimate and romantic. The food was excellent throughout: we had a mixed meze platter followed by a lamb tagine with prunes and chicken tagine. All beautifully cooked. Thanks for a lovely evening!

    This restaurant has to be the best in Crystal Palace very reasonable price aswell but service was very slow because they’re understaffed. Mark the waitress was extremely busy bless him he was literally only him taken orders but he did an excellent job he stayed calm. We were very happy with our orders the food was very delicious . High recommend

    Excellent food, I had a vegetarian tagine, it was really delicious. Also enjoyed the babaganoush. Cozy atmosphere, good place to wind down and relax.

    Just came from a late dinner and I’m so happy i stumbled across this lovely restaurant! I had such an attentive server and the food came so quickly. I enjoyed my calamari, the duck confit tagine was to die for, and the chocolate tart was a perfect, not too sweet end to the meal. I’m absolutely stuffed right now, and going to sleep very easily 🤣💗

    This is an amazing place, i tried the lamb shank couscous and the grilled merguez as was trying to recreate my favourite Moroccan dish from Paris, and at the moment dishes arrived i was in heaven, the parfumes and flavours were incredibly delicate yet rich and powerful! I cannot recommend this place enough!

    Fantastic, flavoursome vegetarian dishes. Really enjoyed the rich vegetable tagine and chefs special butternut squash dish. Friendly, attentive service and lovely ambiance. Great value for money. Do go!

    Good service. Reasonable prices. Very tasty food. I had a family diner with kids. But also seems popular with young groups and couples. Good atmosphere. Congratulations.

    I went last night and had a great time . The food is good and even met the chef. The portions are good and reasonable priced. We had a mixed grill platter. Compliments to the chef and I will be back for another experience.

    Food, service and atmosphere were all excellent at this local restaurant in Crystal Palace. I've found a new local favourite!

  • 4/5 Tracey R. 1 year ago on Google
    The vibe was nice and relaxed and the food was nice. They have a great lounge/cocktail bar downstairs which was a lovely end to the night

    1st visit to this resturant and I must say I had a great time. Food and service was brilliant. It was recommended by my cousin and it did not disappoint. Very nice flavoursom place to eat and will definitely visit Numidie resturant again for something different from the norm. Keep up the great work.

    Had a lovely meal here. Lots of choice on the menu. Food was great and a lovely waitress. Lacked a bit of atmosphere as only one other diner. Would definitely recommend this restaurant.

  • 5/5 Joseph N. 1 year ago on Google
    Food and service amazing plus a nice touch on the table for my partner’s birthday. Highly recommend

  • 5/5 Sarah W. 1 year ago on Google
    Numidie was a great dining experience. From the brilliant service, the interesting, fresh, delicious food through to the great environment, it's was just a lovely evening.

  • 2/5 Dario R. 1 year ago on Google
    We got a tajine and a cous cous. Not definitely the real thing. Those were both out of the same stew pot and the chicken was some grilled chicken breast tossed in. Also they brought a small bowl of actual cous cous grains... I was looking forward proper maroccan food and got very disappointed. Also prices exclude vat? Is this the US...?Giving 2 stars because it's clean and the service is also so and so.

    Took my mum here for mother's day dinner and she said it was the best mother's day ever. Absolutely delicious food, veggie and vegan options, great portion size, friendly staff. Banging.

    Celebrated my daughter’s birthday at the wonderful Numidie last night. We had a table for 10 people and the service we received was exemplary despite the restaurant being full. Food was amazing and very tasty and the atmosphere very intimate and cosy. Thank you to the team at Numidie for being so amazing and attentive, you all really made the evening special.

    We have the lamb shoulder, grill fish, soup, and pan cake dessert. All are fantastic!!

  • 5/5 Robina P. 2 years ago on Google
    Had the most wonderful meal here, the food was delicious and a really nice relaxed atmosphere. If I'm honest it was nicer than the tagine I had in Marrakech! Local gem.

  • 5/5 David M. 2 years ago on Google
    Brilliant food and friendly service. The merguez sausages were really tasty but the star of the show was the lamb shoulder tagine which was absolutely delicious and very tender. Will definitely go there again.

  • 5/5 Ben L. 2 years ago on Google
    Wonderful experience, great service and so friendly! Food was delicious and we felt really looked after. The mezze platter was excellent great recommendations! A big thank you to our waiters Jodie, Jeff and Manu

  • 5/5 Abbie G. 2 years ago on Google
    Everything was delicious and the service was great even though they were short staffed. Top marks! We’ll be back…

  • 4/5 Shaun H. 2 years ago on Google
    The food and atmosphere was great, busy for a Tuesday night too. Merguez to start and two tagines, my Lamb shank tagine was very good. We found the service to be slightly on the slow side and a little simple but we all have off days! Can't give 5* as the wine was expensive for a house wine that's only 175ml and the tagine didn't come with artichoke as stated. But all in all will definitely go back

  • 5/5 CeChiper 2 years ago on Google
    Imagine my mom finding out that the food from here is better than hers, don't tell no one. Just the perfect place to eat if you wanna have a perfect meal.

    Lovely little place to eat the food is divine, staff very polite and friendly, music just right and also they have a bar downstairs to for those that just want to relax and chill. Its one of my favourite resturants. I've introduce and brought friends and family and they just love eating at Numidie also. 1can see by some of there reviews.
