KFC London - Queensway

bad, steer clear. little salad and dressing. chicken was dry. ordered loaded fries, got ordinary. tasted old oil on the potato. thumbs down

Tried to walk into the store today. Blocked from entering due to Male collapsed on the floor and had thrown up. Another member of the public was asking staff to help but was ignored. That member of the public asked if staff would get help or if he needed to call.
Decided to leave as apparently Members of the Public are expected to call 999 to help a collapsed Male in the store. If that is the standards set by staff, no thank you.
Kudos to that member of the public.
Real shame from staff.

Started eating my chicken only to realise it’s got fly eggs/maggots on it. Absolutely disgusting.

I wouldn't bother writing this review if not for the fact that I just had fries made of rotten potatoes. You read that right. The part of the food was rotten.

On this occasion, I will say a word about the hygiene standards. I fail to understand how this place received a rating of 5.

The guy making food left the kitchen and went outside to talk on the phone. He came back and went back to work. Washing hands? Who cares.

We waited for our order for over 25 minutes, and by the time it was complete, the food was partially cold.

The only positive thing about our visit was the girl behind the counter, Lucky, so kudos to her for sharing a smile and being overall friendly.

I will never eat KFC again.

Rude staff with literally zero customer service skills.

The wings were disgusting and had random lumps of fried breading stuck to them

In our KFC Halal restaurants we do not handle any pork ingredients, and all the food and drink items served in these restaurants are approved by the Halal Food Authority. This ensures the very best Halal food standards but does mean that certain menu items and limited time offers may not be available.

Another key consideration for us was that we were able to ensure that the halal certified chicken would also meet the rigorous animal welfare standards we employ in the UK, and we consulted leading animal welfare groups about this.

There is no compromise to our welfare standards. We continue to insist that our poultry is stunned before slaughter, using a technique called 'stun-to-stun'. We only buy high quality, Grade A, farm-assured chicken from trustworthy suppliers, who are contractually required to meet or exceed all relevant UK and EU legislation and this will not change.

Authentic, traditional Malaysian Restaurant

Normah's

We were super glad to find out this place lived up to hype, especially in a city where good Malaysian food is far and few!

The roti was all flakes no bread, piping hot and the best dish of all. We particularly enjoyed the beef rendang (effortlessly pulled meat) and fried chicken (crispy outside, juicy inside).

Do expect the service to be slower as it’s a one man band—but where Asian food is often fast and furious, it was a nice to appreciate a slower change of pace. (It definitely didn’t hold back on spice either and surprised us too!)

We’d love to come back even just for the roti!

If I could give higher than 5 stars I would. Normah’s by far exceeds expectations when it comes to Malaysian food. It has a small menu (which is always a good sign in my opinion, focus on quality vs quantity) with well known Malaysian dishes I.e. laksa, nasi goreng. We have been twice and have tried the beef rendang, the dhaal, prawn laksa (the prawns are fresh), fried chicken and nasi goreng. All have been 10/10. As a Muslim, I love to see other Muslim/immigrant owned businesses doing so well at bringing bits of their culture and heritage to the UK. Sometimes it is tricky to get a table but if you plan ahead it’s not impossible.

Came on a few occasions with a reservation, each time I came I saw people being rejected due to not having booked. I don't think it's worth coming in case there's space. Booking opens once a month and is fully booked very quickly. On the other hand for those who manage to make a booking, it's just great.

The place is tiny and tables are also quite tiny, located in a very curious Queensway market (follow left to find the place with which the restaurant shares the toilets, not a huge amount of them). For drinks is recommend their lemonade, really nice and refreshing. I tried beef rendang with roti (probably best I've tried in London, both rendang and the incredibly crispy roti), nasi lemak with fried chicken (really nicely crispy, also highly recommended) and mee goreng with King prawn (which came really close to the one I tried and fell in love with in Australia). All the dishes really paired well with the Malaysian salad in starter section. I really cannot fault the cooking, it is incredible. I'd though perhaps suggest to serve more variety of starters (other than salad that works great with mains and fried chicken).

I'll continue coming regularly and setting up alarm for the booking opening date/time. Probably the best Malaysian in London, would strongly recommend. I also found their prices to be quite reasonable. Yet to pay more than £50 for 2. The booking system suggests it's cash only but they're quite happy to get a quick bank transfer as well.

Amazing and most delicious experience at Normah's. Hands down, THE BEST Malaysian food I ever had, not that I'm an expert. But it was delicious, so that all that counts. The portion sizes are generous just like at home. Mine and my friend's eyes couldn't decide what to get everything sounded so good on the menu. We've been wishing and dreaming of tasting Normah's cooking for ages now and we did not get disappointed. The service is extra welcoming and special, thank you. Even though you have to try your best to book and reservations close fast, I definitely recommend trying. We will be coming back for sure. Thank you so much for your cooking and hospitality 🙏🙏

Roti King at Queensway Market  London’s Finest Malaysian, If You Can Secure a Table

Securing a reservation at this hidden gem is essential walk-ins are routinely turned away, and bookings (released monthly) vanish within minutes. Plan ahead and set a reminder; spontaneous visits are rarely rewarded. Tucked inside the eclectic Queensway Market (follow signs to the left; shared restrooms are limited), the dining room is intimate, with compact tables that suit small groups. Despite the modest setting, the food is nothing short of exceptional. Standout dishes include:

Roti with beef rendang arguably the best in London: roti impossibly crisp and flaky, paired with deeply flavorful, slow-cooked rendang.

Nasi lemak with crispy chicken – fragrant coconut rice, sambal, and chicken with shatteringly crisp skin.

Asam pedas seabass – bold, tangy, and perfectly balanced; mind the bones.

The teh tarik is a must frothy, refreshing, and expertly pulled. Cooking is consistently outstanding; every element harmonizes. Prices are fair for central London, though a cash-only policy (with bank transfer accepted on request) slightly complicates things. A minor quibble in an otherwise flawless experience. Verdict: Quite possibly London’s top Malaysian restaurant. Tiny, fiercely popular, and worth every effort to book. I’ll keep setting monthly alarms this is destination dining. Strongly recommended for anyone who loves authentic, soulful Southeast Asian flavors. The improvement it should make is more capacity and more bookings because it feels like buying a concert ticket.

Buns from Home

We ordered the 3x10 lb combo to go pistachio, blueberry, and cinnamon. I honestly can’t pick a favorite because they were all absolutely delicious! The service was incredibly friendly and helpful.

Emu helped me! Such a doll, she explained all of the different buns and gave me her own recommendation. i got two of the hazelnut chocolate and it made an amazing breakfast for my mother and i. will be returning!

This is my second time eating buns from home. My first experience was amazing I got it from the one in King’s Cross. But this one is horrible it’s so oily and not tasty at all. I took the almond and pistachio flavor but oh my Lord it was so oily and it’s burned from the bottom I couldn’t even eat it. Unfortunately, after this second horrible experience I’ll never eat it again.

I used to be borderline obsessed with bunsfromhome — back in 2021 I’d get three buns every few days like it was my summer diet. But since they turned into a chain, the quality’s gone steadily downhill, while prices have gone up. The buns are often burnt, dry, and the fillings feel like an afterthought. I got the dulce de leche bun today, hoping it was just a bad run - but again was disappointed - the bun was so burnt it was like chewing charcoaled cardboard. What a shame.

I go to Buns from Home weekly to get the weekend special and once a month for their amazing focaccia bread but someone I pop in just to get my bun fix. My absolute favourite place for baked goods. Everything they do it delicious.

The only two buns flavours on our permanent menu that aren’t vegetarian are our ham and cheese bun and our tiramisu bun (pork gelatine). We are currently trying to switch over to fish gelatine but it’s proving harder than we expected. None of the permanent flavours contain alcohol. Occasionally, weekend specials will contain one or both of these ingredients, in which case we will be sure to mention this on the instagram announcement.

Excellent burger (with five guys vibes). Fresh crispy fries. Fast delivery. What else could you want. Recommended

Our second time coming here and the staff have consistently been kind and attentive. Fahad has looked after us both times which makes the experience even better. The burgers are very good as is the rest of the menu.

the shop wasn’t busy at all (assuming because i went quite late) which meant our food came out very quickly. ordered the mango habanero wings which were seasoned perfectly and the chicken was succulent and easy to chew.

Excellent customer service. FAHAD is a very nice well mannered customer service assistant. He resolved a small issue with my order. The burgers are super tasty. Definitely ordering again .

The store name describes the food!

It’s a great burger but nowhere close to healthy!

We went quite late at night and the store was clean, service was quick and there was security making sure no one was too rowdy.

I would highly recommend plus the food is halal!

Akub Restaurant

An extraordinary experience - the food and the atmosphere were incredible.

I came with my fiancée to celebrate her birthday and everything was exceptional. We ordered the Akub pickles, Grilled Nabulsi Cheese, Sandweeshat Akub, Qalayet Bandora, Arabic Coffee French Toast and then were given a complimentary birthday dessert - not sure what it was called but it was spongey, covered in pistachios and drowning in a cardamom and fenugreek soak.

An incredible culinary experience - we will be back. 🇵🇸

Two for two with my restaurant guide book and I may have been converted to a brunch person. Got very lucky with a walk-in table, also, apologies, next time I go I will take better pictures of the interior. It is warm and elegant, with smart simplicity. Clean colors, beautiful pottery, dishes engraved with tiny flowers.

There wasn’t a thing on the menu that didn’t sound good but eventually we settled on a  spread of smaller savory plates to share. I’m picky about pickles and all about details and these I would absolutely call an essential order. And the focaccia. My god the focaccia. We also got the Arabic bread which, don’t, it was tough and dry and didn’t bring much to the table- so definitely skip that for this because THIS. Was one of the best breads of my life. and I love bread, so I’ve had a lot of it. It was plush and soft and spiced to perfection, great by itself but an excellent companion for the other things we got: zaatar labaneh (on the thicker side, might get hummus next time), the maftool and batikh salads (100000/10 no notes perfection. Watermelon and mint, I don’t know if we’ve managed to top that) and the grilled nabulsi cheese- I don’t know exactly what the black spice rub on top was but we mopped it off that plate. That with the bread and the watermelon, a perfect meal, I’d be damn happy to have it everyday. So brunch is a must, but I’m very excited to come back for dinner. They have a cheesecake that’s gonna be sorry it met me.

Tasty food, a helpful waiter and a lovely red to wash it down with. Highly recommend the baked cheese, prawns, coriander dip and the lamb neck. Prices were a bit steep, but overall a good experience. The benches could also use a few cushions for vertically challenged folks. :)

Wow. Just wow. I can’t recommend Akub highly enough! Everything on the menu looked delicious.

Thanks to suggestions from the very helpful staff, we chose the sea bass (finely sliced, cured in arak and beautifully spiced with sumac) and a selection of vegetable dishes. All were expertly prepared and presented. To finish, even though we were full, we had to try a dessert. Again, flawless! A cross between a chocolate mousse and ganache, with crushed biscuit and ice cream on the side.

This is a true local gem, tucked away on a little Notting Hill side street.

Lovely little spot with a wonderful selection of food. We opted for brunch (it’s sharing style here) I’d recommend getting one main dish (we all got an egg variant) and then a few things like the hummus and bread. The focaccia is delightful and the rest of the food is flavourful too. Would highly recommend a visit. Be mindful of booking in advance

Akub

Cottons Notting Hill

The restaurant offers a warm and inviting atmosphere with a great vibe. The dishes were flavorful and well-prepared, with the jerk pork ribs standing out as a real highlight. They also have a happy hour for select cocktails between 5-7 pm, which is a nice bonus. The service was friendly. Overall, a great spot for a relaxed evening with good food and drinks.

We personally had a great experience and received great customer service. The restaurant itself is nicely decorated and the seating arrangements were good. We enjoyed sitting outside because the weather was nice and we had a little one with us who wanted to be in the heat!

The food was delicious, but we thought it was a little too expensive (mind you, it is Notting Hill so it’s to be expected…).

Feedback: I think the shared platter in the starter section could be improved. It’s way too pricey for two spring rolls, 4 dried plantain, 2 fritters and 4 tiny wings…

The mocktails were good!

I ordered the lamb chops and they were divine. It comes with yam mash which was super creamy and soft. My partner got the mutton curry and he enjoyed it very much.

I had an exceptional experience at this restaurant! From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere was warm, welcoming, and beautifully set. The food was absolutely outstanding—each dish was full of flavor, perfectly prepared, and presented with care.

A special shoutout to Tina, who truly made the visit unforgettable. She was incredibly friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable about the menu. Her genuine kindness and professionalism elevated the entire experience. It’s rare to find someone who makes you feel so valued as a guest, and Tina did exactly that.

If you’re looking for amazing food paired with top-tier service, this is the place to go. Highly recommended, and I will definitely be returning!

This 5-star review is for SAF (from Birmingham) she is an absolute delight!! Our family of 10 arrived at the restaurant and was greeted by the friendly Saf who gave us great information on cocktail and food choices. The food was well presented, with great flavours and portion sizes. Saf really made our experience enjoyable.

What an absolutely phenomenal experience at Cottons Notting Hill! The service was outstanding; every single member of the staff went above and beyond to make us feel like cherished guests. A special shout-out to the bartender, who mixed some of the most incredible drinks we tasted in all of London. They were a true highlight.
We know exactly where we're heading on our next visit to the city!!

Eat Tokyo (Notting Hill Gate)

Everything we tried was tasty. We had Crispy Wagyu roll, prawn tempura, spicy squid legs, and some other dishes I don’t even remember. Everything freshly made, delivered fast. Service accommodating. It’s not a cheap place but it isn’t expensive either. We are planning to return before leaving London.

Popped into Eat Tokyo in Notting Hill Gate for dinner, curious about its Japanese roots. It was a solid meal, worth a try. We ordered Sushi A, udon noodles, Tempura Ebi (shrimp), and some draught beers. The Sushi A was fresh and well-prepared, definitely decent for London. The udon noodles came with a warm, tasty broth, and the Tempura Ebi was crispy and light.

The menu’s massive, packed with options, which is great if you’re into variety, though it can take a minute to sift through. The staff were friendly and kept things running smoothly, and the place had a chill, laid-back vibe that made it easy to relax. The draught beers were cold and paired nicely with the food.

Overall, it was a good spot for a Japanese meal, and the prices felt fair for what we got. I’d swing by again if I’m in Notting Hill and craving sushi or tempura.

As an Eat Tokyo enjoyer, I know exactly what I’m signing up for when I go to their branch.

The staff is polite, the service is quick and the food is always amazing, although overall I prefer the restaurant from Hammersmith.

The only thing I’d recommend is that the restaurant would be heated up a bit more, especially during the cold season. We were there last week and it was so cold I couldn’t take my jacket off.

A bit of a warmer room temperature would positively contribute towards the general experience, besides that everything is good!

Very authentic, tasty and great service. Portions were big and affordable. Less than £56 for everything including multiple alcoholic drinks and hot sake!

Delicious food!! Really really good.

The value for money is a winner here. Amazing prices for the great quality you get.

The service is great, yes. But, if you’re served by the Japanese staff.

Our chicken is Halal and we do not use alcohol in the preparation of our sushi rice.

Eat Tokyo

Cinquecento

This is such a lovely restaurant! The food was delicious, especially the vegan pizza. I‘ve been vegan for fifteen years and during that time I‘ve had some decent pizza but this one was absolutely the best one. The service was kind and the next time I‘m in town I‘ll be sure to eat here again. Thanks for the good food!

Tried their Tartufata pizza and it was not bad. the dough on the side spongy and chewy but the inner dough a bit soggy prob due to soaked with the cheese/burata oil? They were generous with the toppings incl wild mushroom and courgette.

Pity that their coffee machine broke down that morning so could only order cold drinks. The waiter was friendly and polite. Ambience and decor very European and homely.

note that they only accept card payment

What a fabulous pand authentic italian restaurant! It’s a cozy place, with very nice decoration and atmosphere. The food was phenomenal. We had the gorgonzala and noci bruschetta, which was the only dish that was a bit of a disappointment for me (my husband loved it, though admitted the fig wasn’t ripe enough). But the burrata pizza and the lasagna were absolutely outstanding. We also had a very nice Nero D’avola wine, but the passion fruit Aperol was very meh. Special mention to the desserts, we had the pistachio pastry and the tiramisù…hard to choose which was better as they were both phenomenal. We left feeling extremely satisfied with our meal and happy to have discovered this place. It will surely become a fixed stop every time we’ll visit London.

Fantastic pizza !!! Alcohol-free luscious Tiramisù (love it). You Must Try. Lovely place. Great SOUNDTRACK !!! As an ex radio host and a performer, I love to listen to quality music while eating. Will repeat. Close to Notting Hill Gate tube/bus station.

The food and ambience were so delicious and amazing. My waiter Abu has been so professional and Amazing.The pizza chef Francesco has been so friendly with us I like this place so much with the plates attached to the walls.

Food: N ordered the Tower Burger and I ordered the Dirty Cheeseburger. The chef was very generous with the chicken in both burgers 😍. They weren’t dry at all and the sauces in the burger complimented the chicken excellently. The Mac’n’Cheese Sticks were deep-fried sticks of goodness 👅 and the fries were as good as (if not better) than Mcdonalds! We can’t wait to come back for more!
Service: the staff made sure we had everything we needed and that we were enjoying our food 👍🏽

@twopeasfoodies's review of Meat Liqour Bayswater on Instagram

Now that's what you call a tower burger. Epic chicken burger from @meatgram. Hard to get a good picture, the place is so dark. Had to use a light. 
I think it's the best place to go for a chicken burger. You can taste the different earthy herbs and spices in this crispy chicken burger.

Only the chicken is confirmed as halal.

Tag a mate that could take this down.

@halalfoodguy's review of Meat Liqour Bayswater on Instagram

MEATliquor Restaurant Queensway - Hyde Park

Everything we ordered hit the spot and left everyone happily full. Highlights:  Chilli cheese fries (both the plain version and the fully loaded one) were spot-on: generous portions, perfectly seasoned chilli with a gentle kick, and gloriously stringy melted cheese.
The chilli dog surprised in the best way: instead of a standard frankfurter, it came with a chunky, beautifully spiced beef sausage packed with flavour gone in under two minutes.
The kids’ cheeseburger was declared “very good” by my sister (high praise from a picky eater).
Deep-fried mac & cheese bites were the unexpected star: crispy outside, creamy inside, and utterly addictive. Highly recommend one portion per person would be perfect.
BBQ chicken wings delivered crisp skin and balanced sauce without being overwhelmingly sticky.

Portions are generous, prices feel fair, and every dish was executed with care. A proper family-pleaser.

I made a reservation at this restaurant in advance for our trip to London. Unfortunately, upon arrival, we were told there was no booking. The waitress took quite a while to come over, and when she finally did, she barely glanced at the screen instead of properly checking for my name. We were initially given the worst table in the room. When I showed her my confirmation and asked if we could have a better one, she quickly changed it and seated us somewhere more decent. The service overall was disappointing, there was no warmth or friendliness at all. Once seated, no one came to take our drink order, so we had to go and order ourselves. On a positive note, the food was absolutely lovely, though a bit pricey. The hot dog was delicious and actually arrived faster than it took the staff to seat us in the first place! Overall, I’d happily go back to MEATliquor for the food, but not to this particular location because the service really let it down. To top it off, my tray with mayo was taken away before we’d even finished our fries which was not great, since I like having the sauce with them.

“The food was absolutely delicious and full of flavour. The service was outstanding — Amisha Rai took great care of us and made the experience even better. Friendly, attentive, and professional. Highly recommend Meat Liquor, and huge thanks to Amisha for the excellent service!”

Bowling Arena/Skating rink feel with 70s style rock music in the speakers.
Only visit if you don't mind the noise from the music and bowling alley etc.
Tried the cheeseburger w. hot fries, and it was really great!

Wonderful en colourful place to get something to eat. We just arrived for a small holliday in London. Checked into the room (5:30 PM) and was able to get a reservation for 6:15 PM. When we arrived we were greeted and presented an available table. After ordering it was within a short time that we got to order our food. The burger we got (photo of 'Dead hippy burger') was very tasty and freshly made. We also ordered fries with the burger and those were the perfect amount of crisp and soft from the inside.

The only feedback I can give is that the volume of the music that was played was very loud. We weren't able to talk normally to each other without the occasional 'huh?!' after someone said something.

But overall a good experience.

All of our chicken is Halal. Pork is on the menu and alcohol is served.

Granger and Co. Notting Hill

I am from America. My wife and I ate here three mornings in a row during our last holiday to London. The quality and the creative twist on the food was terrific. The service was first class. Zen was our waiter he was so kind and gave us great suggestions for new places to visit across London.

Queue moved quickly and great service.

Nice cocktails and lattes. Unfortunately we'd just missed the brunch menu. Ordered the avocado with poached egg on toast which was really well made but simple.

We had an amazing breakfast at Granger & Co.! Everything was absolutely delicious — from the fluffy ricotta hotcakes to the perfectly made coffees and the rest of the dishes we ordered. The service was exceptional, and a special shout-out to Faton, who made our experience even better with his warm and attentive service. Can’t wait to come back! ☀️🥞✨

I had a wonderful breakfast experience at this lovely restaurant. The service was so warm and welcoming ♥️ it truly made my morning. The poached egg was absolutely the most delicious I’ve ever had, perfectly cooked and full of flavor. The pancakes were something special too, so unique and unlike any I’ve tried before. A perfect spot to start the day with a smile ♥️

We stopped by Granger & Co around 3pm for an afternoon snack and coffee. There was no wait, though the restaurant was lively and buzzing. We ordered a pot of fresh mint tea, a latte, and their famous hotcake. The ricotta hotcakes were incredible—super fluffy, not too sweet or greasy, and perfectly paired with caramelized bananas. Latte was fantastic as well. Service was excellent, with attentive and kind staff. Looking forward to coming back to try more of their dishes!

All of our chicken is Halal. This includes our chicken schnitzel and the roast chicken salad.

Uzbek Corner

We had an amazing experience at Uzbek Corner in London! The hospitality was absolutely outstanding – we felt so warmly welcomed from the moment we walked in. The only small challenge was finding the place at first, but we were determined, and it was absolutely worth it!
The food was incredible. Truly authentic Uzbek cuisine that blew our minds – every dish was incredibly delicious, full of rich flavors and prepared with great care. It felt like a warm, heartfelt, and genuine dining experience in every way.
Everything was just perfect. Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for delicious food and a soulful atmosphere. We’re definitely coming back!

Amazing plov and salads. The service is outstanding - the world would be a happier place if other British places had service like Uzbek Corner. As a frequent visitor I can say the food quality has stayed consistently great over time. Highly recommended!

Outstanding! Plov blew our minds! This is truly a hidden gem if you’re looking for home-like authentic Uzbek cuisine. A definite highlight for our trip. The place is tucked inside a little mall so make sure to get inside and ask directions if you still can’t find it 🙂

Amazing hole-in-the wall gem with wonderful staff—they treat you like family. Very kindly accomodated our group of two families, made excellent menu suggestions, and provided lots of commentary on the foods, as it was all of our first time enjoying Uzbek cuisine. The food was amazing! We will definitely return.

Such an unassuming place when you walk in, but we were kindly greeted and given a table. This was our first introduction to Uzbek cuisine and it was absolutely incredible. Exactly what I love about food, simple, pure ingredients, freshly prepared.

After an awful 11 hour travel day this place felt like a welcome home. Whenever I will be in London again, save a table for me!

Mawi Cafe

My sister and I went here twice during our 5 day trip to London. The banana bread and lemon bread are UNBELIEVABLE, as well as the Chai latte. This cafe is a great place to sit and read or take your coffee to go and stroll through Kensington Park which is right across the street. We loved this place!!!

The staff was very friendly and welcoming. The iced coffee was fine, but the lox bagel felt a bit too simple for the price. Maybe I’m just used to NY–style bagels, but for me it seemed a little overpriced. 11.94💷

Love this place – good coffee, really nice and cozy atmosphere, friendly staff, great place to work with WiFi! A good escape from a busy street.

I love this cafe so much. I come here very often. It’s such a chill and cozy cafe. I usually get a coffee and a sweet treat, but trying out their Caesar sandwich revolutionised my world hahaha. I can’t recommend this place enough, wifi is also free

This cafe is a haven! From the moment you walk in, you're greeted by the warm aroma of fresh-baked goods and the inviting hum of conversation. The music creates a perfect ambiance for relaxing, catching up with friends, or even getting some work done.

They offer a surprisingly wide selection of food for a cafe, and the quality is top-notch. I had the toasted bagel with eggs and avocado, and it was delicious. The omelette was perfectly cooked, and the crispy bagel added a great textural contrast. My flat white was excellent – you could really taste the coffee (no burnt beans here!).

My partner, who has a sweet tooth, loved the blueberry bread but with salted butter (got it at home).

Beyond the delicious food and drinks, the staff truly shines. They're friendly and welcoming, and it seems they know many regulars by name and their preferences. It creates a warm and familiar atmosphere.

I'll definitely be back, and I highly recommend this cafe!

Pro tip: If you visit in the morning, they have a special offer on coffee and treats for takeaways!

Beluga Restaurant & Bar

Had a great evening at Beluga Restaurant & Bar! Everything was outstanding from start to finish.

The food was absolutely delicious: perfectly grilled kebabs (the lamb chops and chenjeh were melt-in-the-mouth tender), fragrant rice, flavour-packed stews, and the most beautiful selection of fresh mezze. The saffron ice cream with pistachio to finish was pure heaven. Every dish felt authentic, generous, and made with real love and skill.
Service was warm, attentive and genuinely welcoming, thank you for such a great night!

What a grand restaurant with truly lavish interior design that creates a wonderful atmosphere. The food was absolutely amazing, packed with flavors that delight the palate. The generous portions are a pleasant surprise, offering excellent value. It's a truly memorable dining experience. If you are looking  for an elegant restaurant for a special celebration, this venue is a strong contender. The ambiance is refined, creating a sophisticated atmosphere of Middle East.
The service is attentive and professional, ensuring a seamless and memorable occasion. It is indeed a remarkable choice for those desiring a touch of luxury and distinction.

From the moment I walked in, the service at the restaurant was exceptional. The staff were incredibly welcoming, attentive, and professional — especially Arazoo, whose service was truly impressive. She made the entire experience feel personal, smooth, and extremely comfortable.

The food was excellent; every dish was flavorful, beautifully presented, and exceeded my expectations. For a first visit, I was genuinely impressed by the quality of the food and the overall atmosphere.

Everything was perfect — but the prices are quite high. Still, the quality and the service made the visit worthwhile.

I can confidently say this will not be my last time here. I’m definitely coming back regularly.
Highly recommended to anyone looking for great service, delicious food, and a warm dining experience.

Many thanks to my friend who recommended this place for dinner in the windy cold London evening.

High class interiors reminds you of the great palaces of Persia  Food is authentic, delicious and makes you feel at home. Friendly staff and customers 👏🏻👏🏻 which is a difficult combination for find.

When you want to enjoy your evening after a stroll at Holland park this is where you should go to

The food is decent and the portions are generous. Their pomegranate red wine was also delicious. However, it’s quite strange that the prices don’t include VAT!!! many people may not notice the small print at the bottom of the menu that states “ they will add 20% VAT to the price of the food”. Prices definitely on a higher side.
Service is average, and the staff aren’t very attentive. They also asked us, as well as other customers, to pay in cash so they could deduct some of the VAT, which felt unprofessional and inappropriate.
