Giggling Squid - Kingston upon Thames

Apr 29th, 2023

We visited Giggling Squid for the first time today and absolutely loved it! The restaurant's atmosphere on a Sunday lunch was really nice (restaurant was buzzing but not chaotic, so we still had a nice, relaxing meal). The restaurant is spotless clean and the botanical dcor throughout is so vibrant and calming at the same time. Clearly a lot of time, care and attention to details has gone into the making of this restaurant, as everything is carefully curated (I might have to ask where I can find the same sets of plates and coffee cups next time!). The service, from all members of staff we interacted with, was fantastic from the moment we walked in to the moment we left - polite, attentive and genuinely friendly. The food, no matter what you order, will be delicious and beautifully presented! We had some prawn crackers with our drinks, followed by the Two Giggling Squids sharing starter (highly recommended!) and a Chicken Red Curry and Pad Kee Mao as our mains. We clearly ordered with eyes bigger than our stomachs and weren't able to finish our mains, but one of the staff members looking after us kindly offered to pack it all up to take home (great, as I hate food wastage!). Despite not being able to finish our mains, the dessert menu caught our eyes and we managed to squeeze in a delicious hot caramelised mango cake to share and a coffee (also really good). Overall, I'm really happy we finally went for a meal at Giggling Squid and I can't wait to be back and share this gem with family and friends!
