Very enjoyable evening. Nice cosy restaurant with a great atmosphere. Food was great from starters to desserts not forgetting the red wine. Staff were knowledgeable and attentive. Always good to find good local restaurants like this.

It's like stepping into the set of 'Alo 'Alo. Absolutely charming French Bistro with a fab menu to choose from. Great if you are looking for something different to all the other very samey restaurant menus out there. Food was delicious and the service perfect and ambience authentic. I had baked goats cheese and beetroot salad for starters and it was to die for. My husband loved his beef bourguignon. Can't wait to go back there. I can't believe this little gem has been on my doorstep for so many years and I've never tried it before.

Had the most amazing experience at Chez Tonton. The place is very authentic, with warm and welcoming atmosphere, lovely and attentive staff. The food was exceptional, best confit du canard I've ever had. A little piece of France in London. Can't wait to visit again.

Would thoroughly recommend Chez Tonton - delicious cuisine and a very varied menu in traditional French surroundings. The service is friendly and efficient. We appreciated the gratin dauphinois and vegetables, which accompany all main courses.

Charming, authentically French restaurant. Excellent house wine, delicious salmon. The tarte tatin, which I chose for dessert, could have been more caramelised. Will definitely go back.

Starters, mains and deserts for my party of 6 were all magnificent. The wine of the month was also very good (we had 2 bottles) and the host and staff were their usual warm and accommodating selves.

Nice meal. Nice ambience when it filled up. They had no knowledge of our inline reservation but still let us stay. They ran out of a steak we wanted. The bread could have been more appetising and a little bit more. Everything else nice.

I just love this restaurant and have been going to Chez Tonton for years. The food is always delicious and the staff so friendly and accommodating. I recently requested a special dish for my Mum who was visiting from overseas and had tried a monkfish chowder here years ago, which she never stopped talking about. The chef and staff at Chez Tonton made this dish again specially for her latest visit and treated us so warmly on our special occasion. My mum was surprised and thrilled and I can’t thank them enough for their attention towards us. Chez Tonton never disappoints and is a true gem in Barnet.
