A south London takeaway is “thrilled” to be shortlisted by Deliveroo for its “prestigious” restaurant awards.

Maki and Bowl, situated in Richmond, has been nominated for best poke restaurant in Greater London.

The spot has said that it offers healthy and sustainable bowls and that last year, customers created almost 200,000 different combinations using its build-your-own-bowl service.

Director and Co-founder of Maki and Bowl, Sasine Makhoul, has said that the nomination is a testament to the team’s hard work to give customers an “exceptional” experience.

He said: “We are thrilled that Maki and Bowl has been nominated for the prestigious Deliveroo 2024 Restaurant Awards in the Best Poké category in London for a second time.
