Tootoomoo is a north London restaurant chain specialising in pan-Asian cuisine, from the fragrant curries of Thailand to the nutritious donburi rice bowls of Japan. Along with sites in Islington, Crouch End and Highgate is this restaurant in Whetstone, a buzzy neighbourhood eatery where sharing plates, Asian beers and tasty cocktails are perfect for relaxed celebrations with friends. Welcoming groups of up to 150 people, Tootoomoo is a vibrant, authentic and fun venue to hire for your next private dining event.
If you’d like to book an exclusive meal with friends to celebrate an occasion, Tootoomoo offers a number of semi-private dining spaces that can be hired for special events. The Chophouse, for example, is its main private space and can hold up to 30 people for dinner. This room is separate from the main restaurant and looks out onto the open kitchen. While the Skylight Room and bar can be hired for up to 50 guests, and is a better option for more relaxed events where equal emphasis is placed on the food and drink. Equally, for large groups, you can book the entire restaurant for up to 150 guests which includes use of its main dining room, cocktail bar and semi-private room. There is also an outdoor patio with heaters and blankets for up to 40 people, so guests can use it year-round.
The menu is geared towards a sharing style of dining with plenty of vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free options available. Examples of dishes from the please-all menu include crispy miso tofu, BBQ pork bao buns, Szechuan chilli king prawns, duck spring rolls and chicken chow mein. More broadly speaking, the menu encompasses a generous selection of starters and salads, dumplings, bao buns, donburi, curries, noodles and wok dishes.
To drink, sake, spirits and cocktails are the main order of the day, while an uncomplicated wine list guarantees something for everyone. Tootoomoo’s warm and lively atmosphere, variety of spaces and crowd-pleasing menu lends itself perfectly to celebratory private dinners.
