Etles Finchley

We went in on a Saturday evening. Restaurant was reasonably busy but we were seated without hesitation. The restaurant was very clean. The staff were attentive and friendly. We ordered a variety of starters and mains. All of them were tasty. The food was all halaal. Some of the dishes were a little bit cold and there was a long wait. The starters (kebabs) arrived after the mains. Otherwise a five star! Will come back again in the future definitely.

I spotted the new branch open up on Finchley Road during my commute to work and decided to check it out with a friend. The restaurant is cosy even when most of the tables are occupied and the staff are extremely friendly and welcoming, and it feels like being invited into a family home more than a restaurant. The food was delicious, with reasonably sized portions and prices. The dumplings, which have the texture of tortellini, were a personal favourite. The hand pulled noodles were also fantastic and the meat on the lamb skewers just melts in your mouth. Highly recommended and will be going again!

I am so glad I found an authentic Uyghur cuisine local to me! The food was extremely fresh and so so tasty! The interior design was also very pretty and seating is very comfortable. The owner is extremely friendly and welcoming! Prices are very good for what is served! Definitely recommend the big plate chicken and also the kawap! The lamb kawap was so juicy and the seasoning was just right. Was also given complimentary homemade onion naan and humous which was also very delicious! Especially dipping the naan in the sauce of big plate chicken! Don’t forget to leave space for the homemade honey cake! It was so so good! I can’t wait to come back again to try out the other items on the menu!
