Any restaurant gems in SW London?
Discussion
ttest place to live in the whole of Christendom!!!! 
Chez Bruce (Wandsworth)
La Trompette (Chiswick)
The Glasshouse (Kew)
Trinity (Clapham Old Town)
All are one Michelin starred. The first three are Bruce Poole; Trinity is Adam Byatt. Food at all of them, is as you'd expect, excellent. And not bank breaking either (not cheapy cheap either, but I'm always pleasantly surprised at the prices).

The French Table (Surbiton)
Great food, fantastic service. Easy to reach by train from Waterloo if it stretches your definition of SW London.
Just don't tell everyone about it ... booking is essential already.

If you like Italian (mostly Pizza) Bravi Ragazzi in Streatham,

The short answer: Yes, lots.
The longer answer is going to need more context. I've been eating out in and around SW London for over a decade, so may be able to help. The four Michelin-starred places mentioned are always going to give you a consistently high level of food and experience, if not with a slightly predictable feel. If you're looking for something off the beaten track, or a bit street-foody, or just plain unusual, there are LOTS of options - depending on where "SW" actually means to you...

I am open to all options, from Michelin to Street Food, I live in Putney, work in Wimbledon and regularly go to Clapham and I willing to travel, so basically more flexible than a drunk Russian gymnast The longer answer is going to need more context.

- The Georgian in Balham: Great, and authentic Georgian food at pretty reasonable prices
- Plot, Sea Garden and Hi-Ki Robata in Tooting market: Exceptionally high quality and well-presented food, in 'street food' surroundings
- Daddy Bao, Tooting: Epic bao, great Taiwanese menu
- Barsito, Clapham Common: Lovely, relaxed tapas
More to come if they fit the bill.
That was going to be my next recommendation after noting you worked in Wimbledon. croyde said:
Only discovered this after 20 years of living in the area.
L'Auberge, Wandsworth.
Little French place run by a French couple. Nice food. She waits the tables and chats to the customers whilst he is the chef.
I'm sad to say that has now closed as the chef Pascal passed away L'Auberge, Wandsworth.

That's awful. I only ate there a few weeks ago. Met him and seemed a pretty healthy fit guy and not old. Edited to add that it seems still open according to website.

Are you thinking of Le Petit Normand?
