Paddington, London

High-end Indian restaurant with contemporary chandeliers and modern art decorating the dining room.

Bombay Palace

Great food as always in this 5 star restaurant. You will never be disappointed. Went for a meal on Diwali and had an amazing time. Lots of ppl were there and the ambience was buzzing yet chilled. It was the right mix. Service was excellent from the minute we stepped in with everyone smiling and politely saying hello or wishing us a Happy Diwali. Melbourn was our waiter and he was pleasant throughout. Attended all our needs with a postive attitude and never rushed us at any moment. He even went above and beyond at the end and took pictures of us at our request as we were leaving. He showed patience as we asked for quite a few! Bless him. Ordered Gol Gappe, Chilli Paneer and Chilli Momos as starters and they were 10/10. For mains we ordered Jeera Pulao, Chilli Naan, Potato Kulcha along with Daal Makhani and Paneer Makhani. Everything was sensational. Beautiful taste and the flavours were spot on. Compliments to the chef!

The food here is delicious and one of the first signs to know that is seeing Indian people eating here.

We trusted the recommendations of our waiter Robert and everything was really delicious, I felt like we are in 🇮🇳

Thank you for the great service and hospitality! It is definitely a place we will be saving for our next trips to London and recommend to friends and family!!

We had buffer lunch at this restaurant for 2 days. Their food was good but the service was not to the mark. The staff were quite rude saying not to go that side and this side. Their gulab Jamun was amazing. And the ice cream alongside was best. I asked for little sugar which they refused saying its not on our menu. I wish they speak with their guests a bit more politely.

We ordered a lot of stuff and loved the food. Would highly recommend dahi bhalla papri chat, afghani momos, butter chicken, pao bhaji and mango lassi.

All of this was heaven! You can order without a second thought. Authentic Indian taste!

We also had vada pao and vegetarian grill which was okay and would not recommend.

Old school and somewhat on the pricey side.

Attention to detail is a little sloppy, as in the table being set in a haphazard way upon arrival. Overlapping staff, taking orders in a way that makes for avoidable mistakes.

Entree recommendations were good and the curries that followed were very well made. Nice selection of bread and rice, while the beer selection was poor as expected.

Butter chicken and the King Prawn Bhuna stood out in a very positive way.

Overall a nice dining experience, lacking the edge to make it more than a one-off visit.

Ayllu

I had such a wonderful experience at Ayllu Restaurant. From the moment we walked in, the decor was stunning, warm, stylish and inviting, creating the perfect atmosphere for a special evening. The service was excellent throughout; our waiter was attentive, friendly and made us feel truly welcome without ever being intrusive.

The food was absolutely incredible. Every dish was full of flavour, beautifully presented and a real celebration of fresh ingredients and creativity. Each course felt thoughtfully prepared and exceeded our expectations.

Altogether it was a fantastic dining experience with amazing food, outstanding service and a beautiful setting. I cannot wait to return and would highly recommend Ayllu to anyone looking for a memorable meal.

We came here for the 8 course tasting menu from Virgin experience. The restaurant is beautiful inside but as the weather was good everyone was sitting outside.
We got directed to our table, waited around 15 min for the waiter to come. Nobody passed him information that we have a voucher so that was a first sign of the poor communication. He told us he will check what we have included. For the next 30 min we didn’t hear from him which was very frustrating. We didn’t know if our voucher is sorted, or if they forgot about us. After this time we got our first course. All the food was delicious but it would so much nicer experience and less stressful if there would be any communication from the staff.

I would recommend the experience but their customer service needs to improve.

Excellent food and service. Busy even at 6pm on a Monday.

Between the two of us we ordered the Chicken Karaage, Chicken Bao, Aubergine Bao, Black Cod, Peruvian Fries and Yucas!

Chicken Karaage and the chicken Bao were delicious. The Aubergine was somewhat of a disappointment.

I personally liked the black cod but the taste was too much for my partner.

The fries were normal but the Yucas was nice. Very strong flavours.

Booked on a very short notice for a Sunday lunch with my wife. It’s a little bit hidden in a basement. Service was quick and good was good. Not overwhelming but good. Only brunch menu available, which was bottomless. Restaurant had a live DJ and was playing good tunes, for my liking a notch to loud.
Not sure why we had some samba dancers out for 5 min and doing as show, but that’s quite entertaining. Lucky they did not ask me to join in dancing, as they did to other guests.

My partner and I went to dinner. We wanted to have a good time, but the place was very noisy. The music was quite loud. I think it was too early to have the music so loud. It was barely 8:00. We couldn't talk, we were yelling. I understand if it's 10:00 and the music is loud. It's fun because you can enjoy it and dance, but not when it's in the middle of dinner. I think the DJ was excited. The service was friendly, and the food was okay.

Most of our fish, vegetarian and chicken dishes are Halal. Please let your waiter know so we can make sure there is no cross-contamination when preparing the order.

Masgouf - مطعم مسكوف

The best Arabic food ever, delicious food, friendly staff, cosy place 🤍🤍

My buddy and I tried this place when we stayed nearby in London. I have had Middle Eastern food many times, but Masgouf specialized in Iraqi-style preparations. I never had that, but I loved it.

We were welcomed like family and treated like tru guests. I always appreciate that. The hummus was expertly prepared, and lamb mains were just as good. I'll come back.

We visited Masgouf for lunch, and it was great. We were the only ones in at that time, so we managed to get a good table by the doors. The staff are great and we got served very quickly. We went for a mix of starters: hoummos with meat, which was amazing, rich lentil soup, and a fresh beetroot salad with lemon juice. The mains were brilliant, I went for Kouzi with fall off the bone meat and soft puffy saffron rice. My better half went for Masgouf, which was a grilled seabass that tasted great. We also received a Mohalabiah on the house, which was sweet and fresh. Overall, a nice filling lunch for two for under £100, highly recommended!

Impeccable service by Ramy and his team! Every single visit has been mind blowing. They all treat you so well and with so much respect. The food itself is tasteful, atmosphere is amazing. Everyone is so welcoming, the team is so warm and always in good spirits.

Definitely recommend.

The best Iraqi 🇮🇶 restaurant in the UK I have tried a lot but it still the best.
They are pioneer in the grilled meat , kebab , ribs & chicken family dish beside the bread, rice , Iraqi dolma ,salads and hummus.
Rami , Rabea , Khalid & Muhammad always give the best service and hospitality. Thanks to you all guys.

BKC - Biryani Kebab Chai - Marble Arch

Excellent food and service!  We were in London for a few days and wanted a change of pace for dinner. We are so happy we chose BKC. From the moment we arrived until the moment we left, we enjoyed our experience. The staff asked thoughtful questions and made great suggestions to satisfy all our palates. Everything was delicious and fresh. You know a restaurant is good when there are plants of locals enjoying meals. I know this will be a stop on our next trip to London!

We recently visited BKC and were thoroughly impressed! The chai is absolutely amazing. Manpreet served us and provided an outstanding customer experience—friendly, attentive, and professional. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for great chai and excellent service.

I was more than impressed visiting @bkc.restaurant. Honestly my impressions were that it's a casual restaurant but I was quite wrong.

Prices are on the higher end but oh my the food was top notch.

The biryani was decent but in my opinion you can pass on that and go for the "kebabs" /grills instead.

All the ones I tried - wow. The quality of the chicken, the marination and flavours made me think this is a top Indian restaurant. The galouti kebab (lamb) which I know as a tunde kebab just broke apart so easily. This is rare to find and just melts in your mouth. Generally all the grilled meats were fantastic.

For curries I tried the lamb bhuna which was on the sweeter side but I really enjoyed the murgh makhni - perfect.

Desserts held up to the mains as well. Falooda was great but my pick would be the gajar ka halwa because it was actually done properly. But even that gulab jaman was lovely.

Quality food and I highly recommend.

Taste was very good but extremely overpriced!!!! 3 small pieces of kebab for £16-17!!! One pot of biryani £17. For one time it’s good but definitely i won’t go back (for the price!!).

Also, the employees were very attentive (may be a bit too much because one employee almost snatched the glass from a table when the customer was still not finished. Probably they wanted to take the dishes to kitchen asap which looked very weird).

Waited for ~20-30 mins which was still understandable because there were other guests before us waiting.

We walked in and got a table straight away.

I recently visited BKC Restaurant and found the overall food taste acceptable.
I ordered the Bombay Biryani, expecting the typical flavours of Mumbai. Instead, it was predominantly an Awadhi-style biryani, with key ingredients missing. For example, raisins were used instead of prunes, which changed the flavour noticeably. The description did not match how it looked. On a positive note, the thecha served on the side had a good kick and added a nice burst of flavour.
The Pepper Chicken also didn’t match its name. It had more of an Indo-Chinese taste, rather than the bold, peppery flavour you'd expect from a South Indian dish.
Interestingly, when I gave feedback to the manager, the response was more defensive than open. Rather than accepting it, they seemed to justify the choices, which was disappointing.
Additionally, prices are higher than other nearby restaurants, but the food and experience don’t offer much more in return. If you're not familiar with Indian regional dishes, you might not notice. But for those who are, the lack of authenticity is clear.

Patogh

What started as a simple moment of following an irresistible aroma turned into one of the best dining experiences I’ve had in a long time. Highly recommended for anyone who loves authentic Persian cuisine—or anyone who trusts their nose to lead them to something delicious. The food was exceptional but I also want to appreciate the owner, who was incredibly gentle and welcoming. Their kindness added a personal touch to the entire experience and made the visit feel even more special.

This restaurant was absolutely fabulous. Small and not pricey. Freshly prepared food which was delicious and generous in portions. Complementary bread and dip. The staff were very friendly and helpful. I would recommend anyone to go and eat there . Worth the trip. Helena

I liked the rustic interior and the place has a charm to it. Service was very friendly. The food was kind of mediocre. Big portion but the kebab tasted I dunno, a bit undercooked and not the tastiest. I regret not having the bread instead of rice but the salad was fresh enough. Cost £15 which was fine.

Authentic Persian/Iranian food. Great taste. Freshly made food. Tried their lamb kebabs. Restaurant is very small. Extra seating upstairs. Been going to this restaurant for many years. The interior needs some attention to improve the ambiance of the place.

I visited this Iranian restaurant last week with one of my European friends — it was her very first time trying Persian food, and she completely fell in love with it! We ordered kabab koobideh, and the flavour was just perfect — tender, juicy, and beautifully seasoned. She couldn’t stop talking about how delicious it was and how it reminded her of home-cooked comfort food, even though it was her first Iranian meal ever!

Although the restaurant wasn’t busy at all, it surprisingly took around 30 minutes for the food to arrive. Still, once it did, the taste made it absolutely worth the wait. The cosy atmosphere, traditional Persian tableware, and nostalgic interior design made the experience even more enjoyable. I’ll definitely be coming back again — it’s a lovely place to introduce friends to real Iranian cuisine! 🇮🇷🍢✨

We made the mistake of ordering the corn and the coleslaw. The corn was so old and brown. The coleslaw was a salad. I ordered a pop that tasted funny and was so flate. I should've looked at the ratings first before ordering.  Chips were very few and cold. There is usually more coating on the chicken didn't get a picture.

This one is a very busy spot, with a lot of foot traffic. Easy to order via their kiosks and just wait.

It was already closing when I ordered so the sit in wasn’t an option but the food was good as expected even as a to go order.

I’d come back here again to try their other menu items.

The wings were disgusting (sorry). Chicken hair, most of it was fatty skin and it was bland. Most KFC wings roughly taste similar to me, you know because they are presumably using the same recipe. But these wings did not taste nor look like KFC wings. Staff were kind but the wings were horrific and the tables weren’t clean, other meals were just left there. The worst KFC I’ve ever had.

Walked in, disgusting smell, tables covered in mess, door handle on the way out greasy ugh, this was on only a handful of times going to a KFC as I have only once liked anything from them but this time was only because I had been in the hospital and wanted to sit down and the Mackie Deez is taken away only on the same street... Went to Frankie & Benny's
instead, but on leaving KFC I gel washed my hands as you see in the picture.

This was at 15:30 by the way so I don't think things could get THAT dirty and greasy after one lunchtime.

Last used a UK kfc three years ago, For what it is, it was fine… only a few mins to wait for our meal for three people, restaurant fairly clean, although tables could be wiped better and staff polite enough when handing over the order.
Male toilets not fantastic, toilet seat blocks flush buttons and was a bit messy.
Food was acceptable, kfc gravy seems very thin these days, Jolibee is much better for that.

HFA has certified KFC's products in these stores, and the store environments, as halal. KFC has also ensured that the halal certified chicken would also meet the rigorous animal welfare standards employed in the UK, and has consulted leading animal welfare groups about this. KFC insists that all poultry is stunned before slaughter. HFA allows the use of a technique called 'stun-to-stun' - a pain free process that makes the animal insensible to pain and suffering. A verse is also recited from the Quran at the point of slaughter by an appropriate person and the poultry will not come into contact with non-halal meat at any point in the supply chain. KFC only buys high quality, Grade A, farm-assured chicken from trustworthy suppliers, and this will not change.

Al-Dar Lebanese Restaurant

We had a lovely evening at Al-dar. We were served by Ali. He was amazing, so professional, friendly and very attentive. 10/10 service and food was fabulous. I’ll definitely be returning here again with my family! Thank you Ali for the service

The server was great with my youngest child. The juices were fresh and cold, and all the food was fantastic. The only minor downside was the server did forget our water but he was very busy. Overall a great lunch out with the kids

Great food really- I came after ten years and it is still one of the best on edgeware road
service so quick and efficient and caring and delicious food. Sohail was one of the servers and he was gracious and so kind. We went to one of the chain ones the day before and the difference is striking . Thanks again

A simple ambiance with good quality food.. loved their platter for 4 … with chops , kofta , lamb shawarma , chicken shawarma and sheesh taouk ….

This was exactly what I was looking for in London! The food was incredible, and the service was attentive and friendly, creating a welcoming atmosphere. My meal was prepared quickly, and the apparent owner even treated me to a delicious piece of Baklava on the house! I look forward to returning!

The owners of this restaurant are Muslim and have confirmed its halal status.

Malaysian cuisine in a modern, scarlet-walled room with hibiscus stencils and teardrop lamps.

Satay House Malaysian Restaurant

Satay House Restaurant is such a nice spot and definitely a must-visit if you’re craving Malaysian food in London. It’s the oldest Malaysian restaurant in town and you can really taste the authenticity in their dishes.

The chicken satay was the highlight of our meal, so, so good! Honestly the best satay I’ve had in London. I had the bee hoon sup, which was the perfect warm and comforting bowl, while my boyfriend had the nasi goreng kampung. The flavours really hit the spot, though we both wished it still came with kangkung instead of peas. His parents ordered the Nasi Campur, and both the kari ayam and kari kambing were absolutely delicious.

Highly recommend this restaurant. They even have a menu that works really well for big groups. Authentic, tasty, and worth the visit!

We have tried Kari Laksa and Ayam Lemak Cili Api , both are finger licking good and very tasty. The portion sizes are decent too and the only thing would be cost of Roti bread is 9 GBP which i felt is too high just for a roti bread but its very good though . But otherwise its must visit and must try for this little cozy Malaysian food place

Nice place to enjoy some Malaysian Cuisine especially if you need some Sambal Belacan(note: not spicy enough for our SEA tastebuds).

Must must Book in advance!!

Fried Banana ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Kway Teow Goreng
Satay!!
Mee Sup

This is my favourite Malay restaurant in London. I discovered it 10+ years ago thanks to a Malay friend and I always come back when visiting London. I particularly recommend their Kari Laksa, Nasi Lemak and Roti Chanai with fish curry sauce.

One appetiser, two mains, and two drinks came to £63 at lunch time.

The fried tofu with stuffed vegetables/beansprouts (tahu sumbat) for appetiser is not recommended.   It was fairly flavourless even with the sauce. However I enjoyed my bee hoon goreng a lot. The portion was big and the spice level was great. I would have this again.

I also liked the hot teh tarik. It was sweet just like how I had it in KL. It could possibly be the best teh tarik I’ve had so far in London.

There were plenty of seatings at 12:30 on a Saturday but I would recommend a reservation if you go in the evening.

Satay House

Melur London

My mom saw this restaurant while taking the public bus & wanted to try it & it did not disappoint! I ordered the Char Kuey Teow “Fav”, & the flavour was rich & authentic. They also have an all-you-can-eat buffet, which looks really worth trying next time. The owner Pak Awie, is such a friendly & welcoming old man. Greeted us, which made the visit even more enjoyable. Recommend this place if you’re craving real Malaysian & Indonesian flavours! 🇲🇾🍽️

Hidden gem tucked away on Edgware Road. Lots of Malaysian people about which says it all!

Food: I recommend the Nasi Goreng Kampung (more authentic than their USA Nasi Goreng) - I licked the plate clean. It comes with crunchy salty anchovies (you can see on bottom left of photo) and an egg on top. If you fancy noodles I recommend their Kuey Teow Goreng. Lychee juice was some of the best I had! These were the stars of the show. Desserts were alright but nothing special (banana desserts: Pisang Goreng & Pengat Pisang).

Atmosphere: restaurant is downstairs so no natural light, not particularly modern but feels authentic and atmosphere is created by the happy chatty air of other customers. Not too busy, not too empty.

Service: was fast when more empty but as soon as there were 3/4 more tables it was noticeably slower. Friendly servers with recommendations and knowledgeable of allergens.

Price: well priced. not a bargain but not expensive. £14.20 for our mains, with mains going up to £16.

Veggie/vegan friendly (coconut milk more prevalent in cuisine rather than milk). Halal. Servers helpful with allergens.

Alhamdulillah, masya-Allah, tabarakallah.. had a lovely iftar experience at Melur Restaurant last March!
It was my first time visiting, and I found the place quite unique, the dining area is located in the basement, which adds a cozy and intimate vibe. We arrived early, knowing how hungry everyone gets after a long day of fasting during Ramadan 😄.

We ordered Nasi Kandar Ayam, Nasi Kandar Daging and Nasi Kandar Ikan with drinks including Teh Tarik, Teh O Ais and Nescafe O. Alhamdulillah, the portions were generous, the flavours were absolutely delicious, just like back home! The curry reminded me so much of the ones from Penang, truly authentic Malaysian taste.

The staff were very friendly and welcoming, providing warm and pleasant service. The atmosphere was comfortable and filled with charming antique decor, suitable for all group sizes. Another great plus Melur also provides a prayer room, making it convenient for Muslim diners to pray.

For me, this is one of the best places to enjoy Malaysian food in London. And it was heartening to see not only Malaysians dining here, but also people from all backgrounds enjoying our cuisine.

A big thank you to the team and especially the chef for preparing such amazing food.
May Allah bless your business with continued success, insya-Allah. Barakallahu fiikum!

Had a lovely work lunch today and an amazing Curry Laksa. It really reminded me of the ones I’ve had when I visited Malaysia many years ago. The staff were amazing and super helpful as they recommended things to my friends who haven’t had Malaysian food before. Really hope to go back again.

We came here for Saturday lunch and the highlight is definitely their nasi kandar which comes with either 1, 2 or 3 side dishes (fried chicken, chilli lamb, sambal sotong, beef and fish curry).

We also tried the keropok lekor, nasi goreng USA (don't ask me why it's called that!), kangkung belacan and fish assam pedas (fish in a spicy tamarind-y curry).

Everything was polished off so safe to say, we enjoyed everything and will probably be back again! Potentially for a buffet which they do every once in a while!

In terms of service, it was probably just average mainly because it looked like there was only one waiter despite having quite a few tables so it was all a bit slow. That said, he tried his best! Food service wasn't the speediest either but luckily worth the wait!

Queen of Sheba (Malekat Saba') specialises in Yemeni food

Queen of Sheba London

We were looked after by Ali who was a wonderful host (and I believe one of the owners too) he was attentive and helpful. The rest of the waiting staff unfortunately let him down by repeatedly getting our drinks order incorrect and not being very helpful.

The starters were absolutely delicious 🤤, but the mains lacked a lot and failed to follow up the great start.

The restaurant was buzzing and lively and portions quite large. Nice place but nothing special.

Its a Halal yemani restaurant. The ambiance is of a typical yemani vibe with plenty of seating options inside aswell as outside. The server was phenomenal and very friendly.
We ordered fish with roti, chicken mandi and orange juice. The fish alone itself with good but the sauce that was given did not go with the fish. The roti on its own was also very good but it did not pair with fish (my own fault for choosing roti with fish over rice with fish). The chicken mandi was average but the tomato sauce given with it was good. I have had better mandi and my expectations were very high considering it was yemani mandi. The orange juice and salad were fresh. The complimentary lamb soup that was given was quite refreshing and appetizing.

Food
The fahsa here is incredible, lots of flavour and the meat is tender. There is a generous amount of fenugreek added on top. The chicken mandi here is delicious. I don’t recommend the shafout here as a starter as it is mostly just yogurt with shredded bread but does taste nice with rice.

Service / atmosphere
You are provided with a complementary hot soup when you arrive which is delicious. They provide barriers to allow muslim sisters to eat comfortably and the seating is comfortable and food is served pretty quickly.

Absolutely delicious foul and the meze platter for takeaway. I was a bit surprised at the price point for both but they’re SO worth it. The foul arrived bubbling and steaming pot and the portion is substantial. Incredibly tasty with rich spices and herbs but not too spicy. Also, the dish comes with a huge serving of bread. And I mean HUGE. Like half my body size. The meze is a wonderful mix of dolma, hummus, babaganoush and tabbouleh. Again, a huge portion size. Sustained me for two dinners. Garlicky, creamy and just incredibly tasty.

This has been my go to for well over 10 years, I absolutely love the food and atmosphere here.
Everything is packed full of flavour, very authentic and super soft juicy meat with lots of vegetarian options.

Really enjoyed family events here too, they always treat us so well.

Can't wait for my next visit.

Halal Asian cuisine. Formerly Bonda Kitchen

Bonda by Duck & Noodle

Halal Malaysian restaurant. Not sure about other dish but the duck here is very good. Order their duck rice. Duck is super juicy. You won’t regret it.  Ask for chili oil. Pro tip, request for breast rather than leg for more meaty juicier experience.
Plus point, toilet is clean with bidet. Prayer room as well.

Will not return: decent duck but no alcohol.

We’ve
- Ma Po tofu 麻婆豆腐
- Duck noodle

Both are flavorful but slightly sweet, especially the tofu. The noodles are al dente.

This homey Malaysian restaurant is three minutes away from our hotel. After a long day of travel, the soup hits the spot.

The bonna brand porcelain hand-painted tableware from Turkey is quite attractive.

We came here after seeing the great reviews and were not disappointed. The waitress was so kind and welcoming and very helpful in making suggestions. We wanted dumplings and were very happy with the ones we got. They were very reasonably priced. They were delicious. I will definitely come back.

Food and service was exceptional. Abul Talib and his colleague gave us really outstbaidng service on Monday bank holiday. The food was fresh and piping hot. The food was served very quickly. Facilities were outstanding. Prayer room with wudu area and separate clean toilets. Highly recommended. Great place for halal duck and halal dumplings in London.

This is a new branch just 6 days old of the original restaurant Bonda Kitchen round the corner (currently under renovation due for re-opening Sept). We came on a busy lunchtime Easter Monday so the service was somewhat slower than expected but understandable for new staff & kitchen to find their feet. I expect they will improve efficiency over time. The halal Malaysian hawker and Chinese food menu is quite ambitious - there is Peking Duck, Chilli Crab with mantou, lobster and steamed seabass thru to dim sum and classic Malaysian comfort foods like laksa, mamak mee, nasi lemak & wat tan hor egg noodles. Sadly no char kuey teow but as this is usually a pork-based dish so not a surprise.
We tried the hawker foods and they were authentic - recommend the mamak mee, laksa & nasi lemak. The kangkong belacan was surprisingly quite spicy but the rest were mild. Will return once they are more settled to try the Chinese dishes with rice & dim sum. We did meet the owners who explained their concept and passion to deliver good Malaysian food locally. As fellow Malaysians, we wish them every success to bring the best of our cuisine to London (& to homesick Malaysians who miss it!).

Colbeh Restaurant

I like how there is no reservation. You just wait in the queue and first in first to served. The food is delicious as expected price is kind of acceptable. The service is superb nothing to complain about the billing is handwriting so it could be misleading at first, but if you review the menu first and compare the prices, you’ll find it about accurate. lovely place overall I suggest it.

One of the best Parisian restaurants in London. The food is fresh and delicious. They backed fresh hot Iranian bread. I recommend the kofta with rice.

أكيد! إليك الDelicious Persian food, but billing needs more clarity 🍽️🤝

Apr 2025 • Group of Friends

We had lunch at Colbeh Restaurant – a group of six friends – and overall, the food was very tasty!

Good Points:
•	We ordered one Ghozi and four Iranian kebabs with pomegranate rice – the taste was excellent and portions were generous 🥩🍚
•	Service was friendly, and the staff were doing their best despite the crowd 😊
•	The restaurant is small but cozy, and very popular – expect it to be a bit crowded 🪑👥

Note:
The final bill was handwritten, and we weren’t allowed to take a copy. This raised some concerns about price transparency. Hopefully, they improve this soon to make the experience more comfortable for future guests.

Overall:
Great food and atmosphere – just wish the billing process was more clear and open.

I had the pleasure of dining at Colbeh, and I must say, it exceeded all my expectations! From the moment we walked in, the service was impeccable. The staff was warm and welcoming, making us feel right at home. Despite the bustling atmosphere, our waitress was attentive and efficient, ensuring our experience was top-notch.

What truly stood out was how quickly our food arrived after ordering. It's so refreshing to see a restaurant that not only promises quick service but actually delivers on it effortlessly. And when the food did arrive, oh my! Each dish was a blend of exquisite flavors that spoke volumes of the quality ingredients used. The dishes were not only tasty but were reminiscent of authentic Persian cuisine that's hard to find.

I highly recommend Colbeh for anyone looking for a memorable dining experience in London. The combination of delicious, high-quality food, swift service, and the cozy ambiance makes this a spot not to be missed. Hats off to the chef and the team at Colbeh! I'm already looking forward to my next visit.

A good spot for authentic Persian cuisine! The food is of high quality, rich in flavor, and beautifully presented. Every dish feels truly traditional, from the perfectly seasoned kebabs to the fragrant saffron rice. The service is also commendable friendly, attentive, and efficient.

The only downside is the space; the restaurant is quite small, and seating can feel a bit limited, especially during peak hours. However, it’s a great place for tasty Persian food with good service.
