A well-established favourite for west Londoners, the Osterley branch of the Memories of India group is a charming, informal restaurant decorated with hand-carved wooden panels and leafy potted plants.

The spacious main dining room leads into a bright relaxing conservatory, filled with a local chatty crowd who relish the menu of spicy Indian cuisine featuring Bangladeshi and tandoori specialities. Their tandoori pomfret and salmon ajwani tikka are definitely worth a try. There are many choices for vegetarians too.

If you're looking to relax over a fine meal in a restaurant where the ambience is laidback and casual, and yet the food is prepared with utmost care, then you might want to take a look at an Auberge restaurant. For over twelve years, they have been providing French inspired cuisine to their patrons and their popularity continues to be undiminished. Hunger demands can be met with their express menu with its sandwiches, burgers and salads.

Dinner options are also excellent, with typical starters such as tiger prawns with garlic, chilli, butter, parsley followed by herb crusted roasted lamb rump, gratin Dauphinois, French beans and rosemary jus. Sample the profiteroles filled with cream and covered with chocolate sauce for a light and delectable dessert and make sure you choose something from their selection of crisp Belgian beers or maybe a glass of wine from the eclectic list that spans both the old and the New World.

Virsa offers guests authentic flavours of Pakistan in a comfortable, warm and welcoming setting. The dining area has a touch of sophistication and style with mellow lighting and traditional wooden and leather furniture. The menu offers delectable dishes such as sizzling tandooris, festive biryanis, enchanting masalas, aromatic curries and a range of seafood and vegetarian specialities.

A chicken tikka boti, pieces of chicken breast marinated in Virsa spices and cooked on charcoal, shami kebab, mince meat and lentil cutlet, make for a good start to an exciting meal. Main course of lamb keema karahi, minced lamb cooked with onion, garlic, ginger and tomatoes garnished with fresh coriander may follow, or perhaps chana masala, white chickpeas cooked with tomatoes, garlic and mixture of spices along with rogani naan or Lahori kulcha. As a last indulgence before you sink into pleasant contemplation you can order vegetable biryani cooked with onion, garlic, cardamom, cinnamon and spices, and served with curry sauce.

Here's a simple but lively family run restaurant, located in the heart of Uxbridge, serving delicious and innovative Italian cuisine. For 35 years, Nonna Rosa has been providing its loyal patrons with freshly cooked fare and exciting wines from their home village in Northern Italy. The recently improved interiors add a level of comfort to the old world charm in their decor and guests can now relax with even more ease as they spend an evening with friends or family.

Their à la carte menu is extensive featuring a wide variety of options and could typically begin with fresh grilled sardines or mussels provenzale with tomato and garlic. There are numerous options for pizzas and pastas and choosing one amongst such a tantalising list of many can prove to be a difficult task. However, if you are fond of fish, then the grilled trout in garlic butter or mushroom and cream can be a suitable choice. Homemade desserts are enticing and the range of wines is excellent.
