"Heading to the near Craufurd Arms for a gig and looking for something to eat beforehand we happened across Zouk Lounge quite by accident and as we all enjoy Lebanese food decided to give it a try after first checking that there was plenty of veggie options (which there was) as 2 of our 3 strong party are vegetarian. Gabriella (from Romania) was our charming waitress who seated us and was very informative when it came to enquiring about the various veggie options on offer. She recommended the ‘Lobia’ dish to me (Lebanese spiced whole green beans cooked with fresh tomato sauce) which I then ordered whilst my brother and our friend also choose veggie options and we then decided to share these amongst us all and also decided to add a couple of side dishes. Very impressed with all the food served to us; all freshly cooked, nicely presented, tasted delicious and served to us in a timely fashion. No complaints. After dinner Gabriella enquired if we’d like to relax in their Shisha lounge located at the rear of the restaurant whilst she prepared a shisha pipe and some aperitifs for us. We accepted her offer and retired to the shisha lounge. Once Gabriella had served our aperitifs she enquired as to whether I would like to take control of the music in the lounge over their Bluetooth connection which I gladly excepted and we enjoyed ourselves so much that we decided to stay a little longer for another round of cognac and G T’s before we headed off to the nearby gig; only just arriving before the show started in the end as we’d spent nearly a full 2 hours in Zouk Lounge. All in all, a really enjoyable dinner; fantastic food, a charming and friendly waitress (Gabriella) and a real surprise and extra treat to learn of the shisha bar at the rear of the restaurant after our meal. We will definitely be back for a return visit the next time we are in the area."

"The restaurant staff blatantly lied to my husband and I just to refuse service to us, because we aren't white! I have given star because I can't give a negative one.To give a background, I used to pass by this restaurant many times and noticed it was always empty even though it looked nice. A couple of days ago, I understood exactly why! We walked in here at PM on a Saturday and the restaurant had no customers except a white elderly couple. Since this looks like a fairly casual place (and also because no staff was in sight) we proceeded inside and were just about to help ourselves to a table. Just as we were about to sit, this waiter walked out of the kitchen and very rudely asked what we were doing there "Hi, hello, what do you want Despite him being so rude, we asked if we could have table for two. Now this place has at least tables, each capable of seating at least people, and of these only one table was occupied with one elderly couple. Remember it was also only PM, far for peak hours. The waiter told us that ALL the tables were reserved. When I asked if all the tables were reserved, he said all of them were. When I asked him till what time, he said for all evening. Now this restaurant is open till in the night. I looked around and saw no reserved tags. He was clearly lying.We made our way out. If you believe every human should be respected irrespective of colour, class or creed, avoid this restaurant like the plague!"
