Authentic Basque flavors in Tooting
Tokova is a hidden gem in Tooting that serves up genuine Basque flavors in a warm, welcoming atmosphere. The contemporary tapas menu is designed for sharing, and you'll love diving into dishes like their famous black rice and mushroom preparations. The staff are clearly passionate about the food and will happily explain each dish, making you feel right at home.
The intimate setting makes it perfect for a date night or catching up with friends over several small plates. While it's not the flashiest spot in London, what it lacks in pretension it makes up for in authenticity and heart. The Spanish omelettes are a recent addition that's already become a favorite among regulars.
