Who doesn't love a lamb chop! There's beauts are from @kahanilondon. I really different spice flavour to them which makes them taste different. These were little cooked over for my preference, but till really nice.

@halalfoodguy's review of Kahani Belgravia on Instagram

Kahani Restaurant

Birthday dinner at Kahani, a modern Indian restaurant in Knightsbridge serving bold flavours and beautifully presented dishes.

We started with the Pani Puri, a generous portion of six pieces, crisp and full of spice. The Konkani Soft-Shell Crab was incredible: perfectly fried, full of flavour, and one of those dishes you immediately want to order again. The Samosa Platter (lamb, potato, and chicken) was golden, comforting, and well seasoned.

The Swordfish & Octopus Curry was a standout, rich, fragrant, and layered with flavour, and a surprise to find it made with coconut milk, which worked beautifully. The swordfish was incredibly soft and tender, almost melting into the sauce. Paired perfectly with naan and tandoori roti fresh from the oven.

Drinks were nicely presented. We had the ‘K’ Star Martini and the New Fashioned from the seasonal menu. Both were well balanced, though they could have been a touch stronger given they were house specials.

Beautiful setting, attentive service, and refined cooking that still feels warm and comforting. Definitely worth a visit for a special occasion.

Tried the tasting menu at Kahani and had an absolutely wonderful experience. The kebabs and mains were delicious — special favourites were the mushroom gilauti, the chaat, and the incredibly comforting butter chicken in the mains.

The desserts were creative with interesting flavour combinations that rounded off the meal beautifully.

Chef Peter Joseph and his team cooked and served an absolute treat. Warm hospitality, fantastic flavours, and a memorable evening overall. Highly recommend!

Had a lovely bottomless brunch with my partner ahead of her birthday! The staff were great and very attentive, especially Sharoq!! The food was amazing and we got to try so many different tasty dishes ranging from veggie dishes to meat dishes! 10/10 would recommend and will deffo come back!! We absolutely loved this experience!! ☺️

We enjoyed our anniversary lunch at Kahani using a Virgin Express voucher.  The food was full of flavour, completely vegetarian, and really interesting combinations and creations. Expect small portion sizes, a stream of flavours over six or seven courses, all beautifully decorated in a lovely central London location. Good decor and great service.  They adjusted some of the menu items for my wife as she cannot eat mushrooms!!

My husband gifted me a voucher for my 30th birthday for a tasting menu at Kahani and it did not disappoint. From the moment we walked in I knew the service would be impeccable and the food was simply delicious. There wasn’t a single dish we didn’t enjoy. So so worth the money. The best dinner we’ve had in a long time and such a perfect way to end my birthday celebrations. All that’s left to say is, thank you!

High-end Italian restaurant inside The Wellesley (Marriott)

Oval Restaurant

Celebrated my Birthday with my fiance, I'm going to start from the beginning. The decor is absolutely beautiful, very very pretty and comfortable. They have two places to eat. One was a show room and the other a comfortable fine dine. When we got there, we were seated in the beautiful restaurant, their decor was just to perfection I was very mesmerised. I however did not like the way the staff kept staring and kept walking around the table. I felt like every move I made they had an eye on and it made me extremely uncomfortable. All we wanted was some privacy but I felt like we were being watched on every move that we did. I appreciate the fact that they wanted to make sure that we received 100% satisfaction with the service but it made very uncomfortable. As vegetarians,The food was lovely, we had the 5 course tasting menu with a glass of champagne but we had a mocktail as a replacement as we don't drink. We were very disappointed with the last course as it tasted like hospital or even worse food. I didn't expect the last course to turn out so bad, It sort of made me sick. In the middle of our meal, we were told that There is a show starting at the other side and if we wanted to move there and we were very happy with that. The show was absolutely beautiful I think that was the best highlight of the night. We enjoyed it a lot and it was definitely a beautiful place to dine in but I feel like they need to give more privacy and they need to really improvise on the main/hot course for vegetarians.

The service and food were of the highest standard. The restaurant is quite small and is located on the ground floor of the Wellesley hotel. The décor follows an art deco style and is very tastefully done. We pre-booked the 5-course taster menu which included a glass of champagne or non-alcoholic cocktail (if preferred). For the fourth course there was an option between cod and lamb, otherwise all other courses where fixed. Food not only tasted great but was beautifully presented, none of the courses disappointed. The dessert was also followed with petit fours in the form of dainty biscuits. I would highly recommend the whole experience.

Food was really good, interesting menu (we took the pre made menu) great atmosphere and good service, but the prices were to high. For 3 menus it costed about 320 pounds.

Everything was perfect! Mark at the oval restaurant was very accomodatingand professional, we will definitely be coming back

I visited this restuarant recently and thoroughly enjoyed my meal, which was great value for money with the OpenTable offers.
I understand that The Oval Restaurant gets its name due to shape of the restaurant room, the entrances of hotel, restuarant,  bar and tea room were what was a tube station entrance, and it has been beautifully decorated in an art deco styles. The oval size of resturant lends itself to being a small and intimate setting, allowing you to linger over every mouthful, enjoying the flavours, the conversation and the company. The menu plays tribute to the finest traditions of Italian cuisine. Simple ingredients beautifully prepared, authentic dishes, fine presentation and impeccable service make this a dining experience to savour. I look foward to dining again here soon!!

Select dishes are halal. Pork and alcohol present.

Food: Some of the desserts at Elan are actually to die for. We ordered the Rasberry and White Choc Chip Brownie, Millionaire Shortbread, Mix Fruit Tart and Rasberry and Vanilla Mousse. It’s safe to say that the two rasberry desserts were our favourites, especially the Mousse, which had a hard rasberry flavoured shell on the outside and light and fluffy vanilla mousse inside. The fruits on the Tart were fresh and sweet, but we felt like the tough tart case did not compliment the softness of the fruit. The Shortbread was also very firm and hard to break into. The Tea-Mojito wasn’t great guys, although you might enjoy it if you’re a fan of Green Tea. We both loved the Red Velvet Latte! 😍

EL&N London - Lowndes St

A Stunning Experience at EL&N Knightsbridge!

From the moment I walked in, EL&N Knightsbridge completely exceeded my expectations. The interior is absolutely gorgeous — every corner is designed to perfection with pink florals, neon signs, and chic details that make it feel like a dream. It’s the perfect spot for a special brunch or a stylish coffee break.

I ordered chicken burgers eas so tasty 5 stars The coffee was smooth and full of flavor,
The cake is out of this world so delicious
The staff were friendly, welcoming, and efficient even though the café was busy. You can tell they take pride in the service and experience.
Specially Denize the manager
I highly recommend every one to come to EL&N London

Came here on a sunny afternoon on Friday and it was so relaxing and calm, the place wasn’t too packed that I even got some work done.

I got the club sandwich and peach iced for the first time and it was really delicious! Will definitely try the other food items soon :)

I absolutely love the tiramisu here so I’ll definitely order it every time I visit EL&N 🤤

The digital tablet for ordering and payment was very easy to use and even when an item wasn’t on the tablet menu the staff added it to my tab effortlessly.

The vibes were so chill and the staff were also super kind, I really enjoyed my time here 🙂‍↕️

Beautiful café with breathtaking pink rose decorations ,definitely one of the most Instagrammable spots in London! I had a cappuccino and a pistachio cake. Both were delicious, especially the cake — moist with a lovely pistachio flavor. Worth the visit for both ambiance and taste!

Go-to spot for breakfast/brunch (and their breakfast menu is available all day). The pistachio Spanish latte is such a treat! All the food is amazing, from the savory dishes to the various sweets in the dessert case. They have limited indoor seating but plenty of tables outside.

Really good atmosphere, the place is really nice, now it looks much more refined and cared, that’s the reason why we never reviewed before, all the tables were really tidy and cared continuously, the service was really warm and friendly, fantastic smile are accompanied our stay till the and, even being all the time so busy, we’re all felt sorry for that bold guy because was working completely alone, he really gave the impression of being exploited by the company cause nobody was helping him.

Elan Cafe

Having been to Nusret in dubai and turkey, it’s only right for me to visit the London branch. I’ve always been a fan of his burgers when I had them in dubai and the only reason I’ll only come to Nusret is for burgers. They are probably the best high end burger in London.
.
I am only comparing this burger with the best two high end burger I rate highly, one from cut45 and other one from Gordon Ramsey burger bar. It’s fair to say Nusret overtakes the both.
.
Pictured above are:-
🔳 Nusret Burger with Chips (£50)
🔳 Sliced Wagyu Tenderloin (£85)
🔳 Short Rib Taco Burger (£25)
🔳 Flower Onion (£18)
🔳 Baklava (£25)
.
With the controversial steaks and prices. So if your ordering gold steaks expect to pay them ridiculous prices. My one was £85 which was tender and buttery. All the cuts are Wagyu, also some of these massive steaks with big price tags are for sharing.
.
What I don’t like at Nusret. The flower onion is tasteless. I only had this previously at Stax diner and it banged. However this was overly oily and bland. Also the short ribs when I had them in dubai, was soft however bland and super bland lol with regards to the tacos I had here, it was actually enjoyable, probably because the guacamole and other condiments kinda helped out, but nothing really mind blowing.
.
The burger is easily the best burger you’ll have. A very pricey burger however it’s just a super super super juicy burger. So juicy the juices never stop. The meat is soft and buttery.
.
The baklava personally for me is decent. Didn’t have the wow factor like the ones in turkey and dubai. Tasted like the ordinary ones we all have in any Turkish places.
.
All in all I love his burgers. My total came £250 which is standard central London high end spots. It’s an occasional spot I guess. I know many wouldn’t agree or don’t like the Nusret brand itself. But each to their own
.
What’s your opinion or experience at Nusret?

@halalhunt's review of Nusr-Et Steakhouse Knightsbridge on Instagram

With so many of you still going Turkiye I thought I'd post my review of my most favorite restaurant @nusr_et and why I rate it so highly. Seeing myself in a coat in the snow is a vast contrast to the current weather but better late than never - still on YouTube! You guys been yet?

Amazing experience! The food was delicious, the atmosphere was lovely, and the service really made the difference. Berk was our server and he was so nice, attentive, and welcoming — he made us feel really comfortable and taken care of. Definitely coming back and highly recommend!

I recently visited this restaurant and had a great experience! The food was delicious and the atmosphere was really pleasant. A special mention to Berk, who was extremely nice and attentive throughout the meal. He made sure everything was perfect and his friendly attitude really stood out. Definitely recommend visiting — great service and tasty food!

Lovely food and amazing service from Lidia she was very attentive and kind. We had the lunch menu and its incredible value for money at £39pp for 3 courses. Complementary Turkish tea/coffee with desserts too. Can’t fault it would definitely come back!

Hi Carlo! Thank you for being the point of reference in a place of luxury.
We had meat sushi, tartare, steaks, sides AND baklava. I have been in love with Nusret's baklava since 2017 when I first tried it in Abu Dhabi. This experience was filled with nostalgia and good memories.
Also a thank-you mention to Manuel, and for the pen.
May your future be bright.

Isabela was an incredible host. Thank you for making us feel so welcomed, especially with a nine month old child. Her energy and warmth was fantastic! I also, had lunch earlier there this week and was served by Lidia - also a fantastic host. The food is incredible too - highly recommended!

Most of our meat is Halal. Three dishes contain non-Halal meat. Please ask a member of staff for details or call in advance to request Halal.

Tortilla and burrito joint that charges extra for guacamole!

Tortilla Victoria Place

It’s hard to give an honest review for this place when you’re used to truly really good Mexican food in Arizona.
That being said, they definitely try, slightly London twist I guess with the paprika rice or the cumin rice.

In the end, I would not come back but for those who are not sure what Mexican food really taste like this might work for you.

Not what used to be, as you can see in the photo table is messy, trying to enjoy my burrito looking at that. Guy from the till was chatting, didn't care about the mess. The girl who served talked to me like a robot. Quality food not the same. I used to like this place, not anymore

Overpriced, undertrained staff, wouldn’t scan my code and smallest burrito I’ve ever received from tortilla. Usually a massive fan of tortilla but won’t be returning

I have to say that all the servers were going way too fast. They were rushing so much that I didn’t even have the chance to ask for extra avocado, and the person I was with couldn’t ask for extra peppers either. They were going way too fast, even though there was no one in the line. The cashier didn’t say hello; she immediately asked if we wanted a drink and made us pay right away—no “have a nice day,” no “please,” nothing. In the end, I paid for a burrito that wasn’t even what I wanted, and I felt pressured while ordering. One star cause i can’t put 0

Awful, every single time i order from this branch through Uber Eats, its disgusting. I paid £26 for a naked salad bowl and a bag of nachos and guacamole. Salad had 3 lettuce, soggy and it came with black beans which the dish did not include. I am allergic to beans so you can understand how impressed i was when i received my order and could not eat a £26 salad. Rip off and not worth your money.

Tortilla

Sensational, Michelin-starred restaurant in the heart of London

The Lanesborough Grill

I really wish I could say we had an amazing meal here, but unfortunately, we did not. I am a cook and I was really looking forward to this meal as this place has great reviews. I booked this for my birthday. The venue is absolutely stunning. The atmosphere and jazz band were amazing. Their wine list is extensive and expensive. We ordered a bottle of Morgon beaujolais, which is one of my favourite wines.
However, the food was a massive letdown. I had the scallop to start. Absolutely tasteless! Hubby had the tuna, which was nice but nothing special. We ordered a side of tomato salad, which was nice, but there was absolutely no seasoning on it. This is sacrilege. Tomatoes must have salt!
We shared the beef wellington. I prefer my own, I have to say. Not much beef inside, way more mushroom to beef ratio. The sides were cold on the plate, and the truffle mash was ice cold.  The red wine jus had split. When the waiter poured the sauce all over the plate, he really should have noticed that the sauce had split, but he was oblivious. When I mentioned the ice cold mash potato and veg, a manager came over and made a huge deal of bringing us more mash potatoes.
I am attaching photos. If you zoom into the beef wellington, you will see the split red wine sauce all over my plate. This put me off ordering desert as I couldn't take any more disappointment. Our bill was £300 including a £31 service charge.
Don't get me wrong, we enjoyed the environment, the music, the service, the wine. But the thing I was looking forward to most was the food, and I was so underwhelmed.

Had the pleasure of eating with a friend at The Lanesborough Grilll. We choosed the Festive Menu and were very happy with it, all the flavours were balanced and some surprising (definitely suggest to take the Hazelnut Brioche with the Chicken Terrine.)
We also took the Tomato Salad and Hash brown from the à la carte Menu which were both delicious.

The Service was attentive yet not too much and the live music definitely added some extra to the ambiance.

Will come back!

Every dish was made with great care and creativity — beautifully presented and full of flavor. The service was excellent and friendly, and the restaurant itself was stunning, with elegant lights and a warm, comfortable atmosphere. It was a dining experience I’ll always remember.

5 star service. A lovely dinner experience in a warm, relaxing down to earth atmosphere. Impressive blue/white Wedgwood decorations in the restaurant. Formally known as Celeste. Now English cuisine instead of French Cuisine. Very good quality.
We love to come back for a fifth time experience.

I celebrated my birthday at The Lanesborough Grill and had a truly wonderful experience. The food was exceptional – every dish was beautifully presented and full of flavor. The restaurant’s decor is elegant and luxurious, making it a perfect place for a special occasion.

The service was outstanding from start to finish. All the staff were professional, attentive, and warm. I’d like to especially thank Mike, who stood out with his friendliness and genuine service mind – he made our evening even more memorable.

We will definitely be coming back again. Highly recommended!

All our products in our main kitchen (different kitchen from Celeste restaurant) are Halal, therefore there is no worry of cross-contamination. In our Celeste kitchen, at the moment we do not have any Halal offering. This is because we have approached game season (which we have in our menu). When Celeste does offer Halal options, then there is no cross-contamination. All our non-Halal products are stored separate from the Halal ones.

Céleste

Parker's Jumeirah Lowndes Hotel, London

Unfortunately, the experience was quite disappointing. The food was extremely sub-par:
•	Spanish latte - lacked condensed milk, which made it taste flat.
•	Croque monsieur – fries were the only good part. The turkey sandwich was very dry turkey, and the bread was hard, making it unenjoyable.
•	Pressed simit – took a long time to arrive, and while it tasted slightly better (thanks to all the sauces), the brioche bun itself had a stale taste.

Service also left much to be desired. It was slow. A group at the table next to us was celebrating a birthday and had asked for a candle with their dessert, but when the dessert came, the request hadn’t been passed on. The friend had to ask again, and it was clear the staff weren’t communicating properly.

Overall, between the slow service, disappointing food, and lack of attention to detail, it wasn’t a great experience. Went Friday morning and was quite quiet. Mostly people from the hotel eating a quick continental breakfast.

At 10am on a midweek it wasn’t crowded. I was ushered to a table by the staff after being asked if I was a guest in the hotel (I wasn’t). I ordered their karak chai (£6). It was served in the Turkish tea type of bardak-tea glass. 120mL max. The Egg florentine was good though I wished the poached eggs were runny as I requested (it was overcooked). Overall I am still pleased to have breakfast here. Hope to be able to try their lunch/dinner items someday when it is not fullhouse. Note: they do not accept AMEX credit cards

Parker’s London has nice seating and a pleasant atmosphere, although the space feels a bit narrow. The service was noticeably slow, which took away slightly from the experience. That said, the burger was really good and nice to try. With faster service, this place could be much better.

We had an amazing experience at Parker’s in London! Phoebe and Priscilla were our servers, and they were absolutely fantastic, super friendly, energetic, and made us feel right at home. Their service really stood out and added something special to the evening. The food was also incredible,  every dish was full of flavour and beautifully presented. Highly recommend if you’re looking for great vibes, great people, and even better food!

Had a lovely lunch at Parker’s in Knightsbridge with my sister. The manager, Zakir, truly made the experience stand out he greeted us warmly, ensured we were comfortable, and was so attentive throughout. He helped us with menu suggestions and was quick with the service, making us feel really taken care of.

We started with two mojitos, a passion fruit and a strawberry both super refreshing. For starters, we ordered the Spicy Toffee Shrimp and Crispy Calamari, which were flavorful and perfectly cooked. For mains, we had Steak and Fries, Lime Hot Sauce Pasta, and Lemon Chicken, along with street fries on the side. Every dish was well-presented and delicious.

To finish, we shared two desserts: the Matilda Cake and the Pull Me sponge cake with ice cream, both were absolutely indulgent. Overall, the food, the ambiance, and especially Zakir’s excellent service made it a memorable meal. Highly recommend!

Buns From Home

I’ve been here quite a few times now and I’ve tried almost all of their flavors!!! Their buns are similar to cinnamon rolls. The way everything is displayed is super inviting; It’s one of those places you need to experience yourself to understand why people keep going back. Highly recommended.

We absolutely love everything about this place!
They always offer a great variety and my personal favorite is the cheesecake flavored buns. Absolutely delicious! I sometimes buy them for our dogsitter and she keeps saying it's the best dessert she’s ever had in her life.

They also have a nice selection of savory options, so there’s something for everyone.
Highly recommended!

The bun was under-proved and undercooked, so half the bun was completely inedible. The double baked buns are considerably smaller than the classics, so there wasn’t much to eat. Very disappointing since they used to be great.

Buns! From home??? They're more like giant vol au vents filled to the brim with sweet deliciousness. We went for the mixed fruit crumble and the chocolate custard and they're both solid choices.
The buns are actually more substantial than you'd think and well worth the £££s.

Highly recommend this branch of buns from home with their fast and prompt service. The weekend special for this weekend was great with the fresh clotted cream and strawberries, not overly sweet and had a creamy texture complemented by the fresh strawberries. Really enjoyed the dubai chocolate bun and think that it was great value for money considering the size and portion of the cinnamon rolls.

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.
