10 Best restaurants for Syrian in London

Imad’s Syrian Kitchen

I had an amazing experience at Imad’s Syrian Kitchen. Every single dish was incredibly delicious — full of flavour and beautifully cooked. The food was genuinely outstanding.
The staff were warm, friendly, and attentive, and the whole place has such a lovely and welcoming atmosphere.
Highly recommended — I’d definitely come back!

Fantastic Syrian culinary experience. Dishes are tasty, flavorful and greatly presented. Portions are fairly balanced. We loved everything we had.
We walked in without reservation and got lucky in finding a table, it was off peak hours. Staff and service were up to standards. Highly recommended, for couples or group of people, we'll definitely go back as soon as possible to try more of their menu.

Wow, what a find! The food was incredibly delicious and fresh. Some of the best falafel and hummus I have ever had. The hostess and my server were so nice and helpful, I wish I had gotten their names (I was there on a Monday night and dined at the window by myself). I also enjoyed a really tasty pomegranate lemonada and Syrian chai. This is a new go-to spot for me in London.

I went during the Christmas break with my cousin, I had wanted to go come here for a long time, the food was AMAZING, my favourite were the beef skewers and the pulled lamb, it was all very good.

I love that they have sharing plates and a great vegetarian selection also. The Hisbiacus tea is also very good and if you close your eyes and eat you might think you are in Damascus…

I will be back.

Best Syrian food in London, right near Oxford Circus on Carnaby Street!

My partner used to bring his colleagues here because it’s such a great central spot with amazing food. They have delicious lunch dishes that come with a few dips like hummus and baba ganoush, and you can choose chicken, lamb, or falafel.

I’ve been here many times with him, and the falafel is an absolute must. We order it every single time. The food is always fresh, tasty, and full of flavour.

Imad’s

Rusto (Shawarma and Grill)

A great place to either eat or grab on the go, very competitively priced. They have seating indoors to seat between 5-10 people but I wouldn’t recommend it as it’s too congested. Staff are also very friendly:).

Highly recommend it.

had the chicken shawarma lunch box meal, and it was very good with a generous portion size. The staff were very polite and provided excellent customer service. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone.

We had an absolutely wonderful experience at Rusto Restaurant in Slough! The food was delicious and authentically Lebanese — full of rich flavours and beautifully presented. What truly made our visit special, though, was the kindness and care shown by the person who prepared our meal. They went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect, taking the time to explain the dishes and ensure we were happy. You could really feel the passion and love that went into the cooking.

It’s rare to come across such genuine hospitality these days — thank you Zain for making our meal so memorable. We’ll definitely be back soon and will recommend Rusto to all our friends and family!

First time visit to get lunch, purchased the Lunch Box for £4.99, Chicken 🐔 Shawarma with Rice 🍚, really enjoyed my meal and value for the money.

My favorite food takeaway is a fantastic spot that never fails to impress me. Despite their often busy hours, the staff always provides excellent service with a smile. They go out of their way to communicate clearly with me, ensuring that my order is accurate, which I truly appreciate as I am profoundly deaf.

Rusto

Abu Zaad Shepherd’s Bush

My wife and I visited this restaurant for dinner around 9 p.m. We were the last customers of the night and ordered Mandi and Makloba. Unfortunately, the Mandi was completely cold when it was served. We politely asked for it to be reheated, which they did.

However, right after bringing the food back, the staff started mopping the restaurant floor with strong-smelling chemicals. The odor was extremely unpleasant, especially while we were trying to eat, and it triggered my wife’s allergies. We immediately requested the bill and some takeaway boxes.

To our disappointment, the bill was presented without any apology or gesture of goodwill, and no one came to our table to ask what had gone wrong. Before leaving, I spoke directly with the manager to explain the situation, but he refused to acknowledge that cleaning with chemicals while customers are still dining is inappropriate—his justification was that “they mop floors in airports while people are there,” which we found quite unreasonable.

It’s truly disappointing to experience such disregard for customer comfort and basic hygiene etiquette.
In one word: a waste of money and a very disappointing experience.

Enjoyable food. The service was slow. The food was lovely their sauces were great and their portions are huge. Oh and lovely fresh juices. Enjoyed the drinks so much that I forgot to take pictures of it but the best lemon and mint drink!

I came back to Abu Zaad after 20 years and the place is as amazing as I remember it from before. The food was fantastic and the ambience great. Decor provides an authentic Middle Eastern feel.  The prices are more favourable than comptetitors on the same road. Thinking that the restaurant may have rested on its laurels after all these years.  I can say I was genuinely not disappointed! Would recommend to others for sure.

Nice quick lunch, really good options and well priced. The hummus sharwama and fattoush salad were excellent. Kibbeh was nice and fresh, but could have done with some more flavour. Restaurant was quiet and service was good. Appreciated the aircon on this really hot day.

Such an amazing experience!

We had the best meal at Abu Zaad, which is located opposite Shepherd’s Bush market station and there is a bus stop right in front of it for easy transportation.

There were many vegan and vegetarian options, good service and reasonable prices.
Once we sat at the table, they offered us complimentary olives and two types of sauces.
All the meals arrived at different times and the portions were big.
At the end they offered us a complimentary dessert which was fresh and matched perfectly with the whole meal.

We will go back again, highly recommended!
Thank you! 🙏🏻
