Chez Tonton

excellent food, excellent service, this restaurant never ceases to maintain the level of to which we have become used , Its one of the few places that, having praised it highly, you can take a friends or business people knowing you won't have egg on your face, ( yes I know they don't serve eggs ) . The only problem is that they then become regular customers making it harder to get a booking.

Food very disappointing, service ok the best thing was the owner who was lovely my friends terrine starter was more fat than meat and my liver had far too much butter it was a shame as it's a nice place

The atmosphere was excellent. The welcome was warm. The food was good even if as a non meat eater ( nor shell fish) there was not as much choice for me as my friends, but the portions were large. Overall a lovely evening out and we will go there again.

We always feel we could be in a bistro in France when we go to Chez Ton Ton. Excellent service from Eric and team,delicious food.

Accident in the kitchen meant that our main course was forgotten (when we went to enquire where it was we were asked if we wanted the bill!). However manager very apologetic, didn't charge for the drinks and starters we had had, and gave us a voucher for a free meal in the future. We have used the restaurant a number of times before and have always had a lovely meal.

Staff are Very friendly and nice atmosphere but Very slow service and a , limited menu. The good was ok though my veal fish was very cheewy and had too much salt

Good choice of food with interesting specials. Very good veal rump steak which was cooked to perfection. Only a minor grumble but the service was quite slow to begin with

Brilliant food, excellent service. The only downside is the Parking.....otherwise superb restaurant that hasn't changed in decor or ambience for years and years ! A real little piece of France in East Barnet...unpretentious and French !

We had a very pleasant evening at Chez Tonton. Food was excellent. Service good. If I were to be negative about anything, it would only be that it took a little while to manage to get the bill and pay at the end our visit, but this was a very minor problem and did not in any way detract from our overall experience.

Attentive staff, tasty fondue with bread and potatoes. Would have given full marks had there been some crudités. Also potatoes had a pre cooked taste which I'm not keen on. The proprietor kept checking the fondue, the included wine was delicious. We'll return!

Just love this authentic French Bistro. It has a delightful retro feel and Eric the owner is very relaxed and friendly. Food is delicious and service excellent.

What a wonderful night, great service and fantastic food. Thank you so much for making our night very remember-able evening. Looking forward to going again soon.

Delightful even after a gap of too many years. The champagne cocktail was delicious and will be served to my household guests on Boxing Day

Great food, great service. Great value! Thank you so much. I had the liver and can easily say it was the best I have ever had.

Chez Ton Ton is always an enjoyable experience, good food and wine , a nice friendly ambience and excellent service from Eric and Claudine. The food is consistently good with interesting specials.

Lovely anniversary meal. Would highly recommend. A special restaurant perfect for a special occasion. Chez tonton is our favourite local restaurant. Well worth a visit.

A lovely meal in a lovely atmosphere. We don't go there often as it is a long journey but when we do it's really special so we make the effort for special occasions.

A cosy family run french restaurant with friendly staff making you feel that you are special. Excellent food from a not too extensive but particularly french reasonably priced menu . Throughly recommend.

Excellent throughout, service, atmosphere, staff and especially the food. Le beuf bourguignon was delicious, the crème brûlée the best I had this side of the Channel. Would definitely go again

A lovely evening, good food and pleasant staff. A favourite place of ours. Lovely fish and black forest gateau. Parking can be tricky, but shouldn't deter!

Perfectly adequate. Reasonably well cooked main items. Heavy handed with the flavours, not especially well balanced and sauces tending to overwhelm the main items. e.g. sauce for the duck breast too sharp to be able to taste the duck, that sort of thing.

A very enjoyable meal as always. All four of us had the most delicious onion soup to start followed by three magret of duck breast and one lamb. We were seated upstairs which became rather noisy with a party of 10 at an adjacent table, but when requested, we went downstairs for desert and coffee. Perhaps we're just getting old!!

It was a great night, the service was excellent! We were welcomed on arrival. The food was delicious! I found it so hard to choose from the menu as I wanted to eat it all! We will definitely be returning!

Incredible! That was the best christmas lunch I have ever had. Highly reccomend this local, privately owned restaurant. A bit of France in Barnet - what could be better.

Great atmosphere & authentic French restaurant. Service friendly & good selection of wine. Food was served promptly & was tasty. We went for Beaujolais evening & had a great time.

It was calm and cute atmosphere. It's best for family. In addition, the price is very good. I could enjoy the lovely time with my family.

Fantastic food and service. I had the snails for starters which were some of the best I have ever had. Main course was rabbit which didn't disappoint. Service was very good. Thank you for a very nice evening.

We were looking forward to our evening, having visited the restaurant previously and enjoyed the experience. Unfortunately, we found the food and wine unexceptional and overpriced. We would not return or recommend.

Great food and lovely atmosphere. Found it hard to communicate with lady while trying to rearrange my booking time. Fortunately there was still a table available when we arrived.

Always good to go back to this family run restaurant. Food really tasty, service friendly, a little bit noisy but otherwise as good as usual. We must go more often!

Great food, great service and well priced for the overall experience. The tables perhaps a little close together but cosy none the less. Would return.

Lovely food beautifully cooked. They make the best garlic bread and wonderful salad dressing Proper French food and staff all French. Like being in France. Everyone very helpful and friendly

Ambiance was nice, food was superb and service was very courteous. Hope to go back soon and try other dishes and drinks on the menu.

Excellent food and service as always. While there is always the interesting a la carte menu, you will be tempted by the specials board, offering value for money and seasonal inspirations.

Incredible little gem of a restaurant. Food was very special and waiters are lovely. You really feel like you are in France which I love.

The restaurant was decorated in such a way that it reminded me of many happy holidays in France. The Staff were very welcoming,, the menu comprehensive and the food we ordered was delicious with generous portions. We will definitely be going back. Angela Harell

Great atmosphere and food.Staff efficient and not o.t.t. Definitely down for regular visits in future!Not overly expensive and house wine very acceptable.Tastecard accepted,which is a great bonus.

Great well cooked food. A daily menu plus a la carte so a good variety to choose from. Good service. Quite hot upstairs on the evening we went but they opened windows. A good atmosphere with a full restaurant. We will definitely be going back.

A little piece of France. Food and reception were absolutely fabulous! Loved the French onion soup in particular! Will definitely be back in the near future.

We had a lovely evening with exceptional food and great service from the owners. A real jewel of a restaurant in North London. Highly recommended.
