"A hearty and comforting lentil soup, rich with savory spices and fresh herbs."

"Open late! Never fails me for a great end-of-the-night kebab. Have not ventured much beyond this and the hummus/other dips/tabouleh/halloumi which is all standard fare for this chain, but of those things none are ever a let down and the portions are extremely generous. Great juice as well, always friendly staff and wickedly tangy garlic sauce. The menu is actually quite substantial and they have a number of dishes which you don't see in every Lebanese establishment. Have yet to try, but they sound tempting."

"The order is showing as delivered but it has not been. I have spoken to the restaurant and they said your driver collected it and they have CC TV to prove this. I tried to speak to your customer service team but got put on hold and then cut off. I am therefore requesting a refund. I have been using Just Eat since 2020 and have never experienced this before."

"Booked Esca on chance as it was near Glasgow Green and Barrowlands Ballroom. I was not disappointed, as we were shown quickly to our table and had prompt service. We were both able to order easily from the choices on the pre-theatre menu and I was impressed by the vegetarian 'meatballs ' with spaghetti. The bill was very reasonable for the food and wine we enjoyed and I would return!"

"After hearing great reviews and being a fan of Middle Eastern cuisine, I decided to give this restaurant a try. I was disappointed with the slow service, as the waitress took 5 minutes to come and take my order even though the restaurant was empty. The starter I had ordered did not arrive as requested, and a different starter appeared with the bread that was supposed to come with my main course. To make matters worse, my main course arrived before I had even touched my starter, and my drink was never served. When I pointed out the mistakes to the waitress, she brought the wrong item and did not seem to understand the issues. The person who I assumed was the manager also did not address the problems effectively. Despite the decent quality of the food, the overall experience was disappointing and marred by poor service. Additionally, I was charged for the incorrect starter that was brought to me twice."

"My husband and I were disappointed to find out that our favorite Pasta Restaurant had closed, so we were in search of a new dining spot for our Theatre Visits to the Park Theatre. Since we enjoy Lebanese food, we decided to try out My Cottage Restaurant. We arrived a bit early due to lighter-than-expected traffic and were greeted somewhat indifferently. The restaurant was narrow and deep, with slightly worn furniture and fittings. The table was sticky and the cutlery and crockery had water stains. We ordered apple juice with mint and a bottle of sparkling water, which turned out to be a small 330ml bottle of Perrier Water. For starters, we had Potato Harra and Makdous, followed by Qormeh Sabzi and Lahm Mashwi. To our surprise, the main courses arrived before the starters. The Potato Harra was flavorful, but the Qormeh Sabzi was disappointing and lacked seasoning. The Aubergine and Lamb were also underwhelming. The baklawa for dessert was tasty and well-baked. When we asked for the bill, we were informed that their card machine was not working, so we had to pay with cash. Overall, the restaurant was quirky and tired, with mediocre food and service. We felt like we were an inconvenience to the staff. While the meal was not cheap at £85, it did not meet the standards of other Lebanese restaurants in London. It is unlikely that we will be returning to this restaurant."

"My wife and I had dinner here using a Groupon voucher £49 for three courses each and a glass of either Prosecco or Aperol Spritz). It was a set menu but still plenty to choose from. Some higher-end dishes attracted a surcharge but this wasn’t excessive. The restaurant itself is pleasant enough. Standard hotel restaurant decor. The staff were extremely welcoming and provided excellent service. The food wasn’t much to write home about though sadly. Lovely hot bread was served with our Prosecco which was in a beautiful glass it must be said). Starters were the best course. I had salt and pepper squid with a chilli jam which was very good and my wife had cauliflower and keens cheddar soup which was served with a big cheesy croutons which she loved. I opted to pay a surcharge for the rib eye steak for main course which I asked for rare. Now I expect rare to be hot and seared on the outside whilst still **** in the middle. What I got was a just about lukewarm grey piece of meat which, the fat of which had not been rendered so was still like jelly. Inside the meat was dry and on the blue side of rare. It wasn’t particularly tasty I don’t think it has been seasoned before cooking) and certainly wasn’t ****. I regularly cook steak at home and sear and seal it on a hot griddle pan so that it has a nice char but it is still juicy inside. It’s easily done. For pudding I had the lemon tart with clotted cream which was average. My wife had date pudding essentially sticky toffee pudding) which was dry but sitting on a pool of sickeningly sweet sauce. Again, average. It was an enjoyable experience in general for the money paid but not somewhere I’d return to in a hurry or pay full price for."

"This was our first time visiting this restaurant. It was very busy for a Sunday, which is always a good sign. We were warmly greeted by the staff who allowed us to choose our preferred seating. The menu was presented nicely and we appreciated being able to see the dishes before ordering. We decided on the mixed grill, which featured a variety of kebabs. Our favorites were the lamb and chicken wings, all of which tasted delicious. We had so much food that we ended up taking home two large containers. The prices were very reasonable for the generous portions. I would be surprised if anyone left this place feeling hungry! We will definitely be visiting one of their other locations in the future."

"The distinctive exterior gives an impression of authenticity and ambition. I never eat out these days as I’m invariably disappointed but thought I’d take a punt, just on that exterior. I can handle an alcohol free dining experience but what was on offer, drink-wise was uninspiring. I went to ‘lemon juice’ and my partner went for ‘carrot juice’. Surely it couldn’t just be lemon juice, carrot juice but it was; no frills, bog standard glassware. I imagine they prepare all their dishes in plastic takeaway tubs. A portion of meat, some veg and then rice. This makes them easy to store and reheat with portion control sorted. But to reheat it and present it on a plate still in the shape of an upturned takeaway tub wasn’t visually the most inspirational approach. Too much rice, too little flavour, too little value."

"We ate here early on a Saturday evening. It's relaxed and friendly, when we arrived there were a couple of families with small kids, it's nice. Decor is quirky and the food was superb. We chose 5 mezze between two of us and that was abour right for our appetites. I would especially recommend the foul medames, but hey, it was all good. If you like middle eastern food this is the place for you. When we ate it was cash only."

"Stumbled upon a fun Lebanese restaurant in Earl’s Court. Dinner was delicious, hosts were most welcoming and kind. Had three mezze: stuffed grape leaves; spicy potatoes; and makdous—baby aubergines stuffed with red peppers, walnuts and crushed garlic, pickled in extra virgin olive oil. Our mains were lamb shawarma and marinated king prawns. Chef’s complimentary baklava to end on a sweet note. A lot of great food (we ended up taking some home) at very reasonable prices."

"the best libanese I tried. it has become my kryptonite at the evenings that I do not want obbr/>cook. The huh shawarma is slightly dry, so I recommend the baby huh with rice, the rice is amazing, like the brot, and the halloumi brot, and the flafel, and the garlic sauce. it's all amazing (and it's not too hard on her wallet.) In the did. that write about it made me hungry, something tells me that it's Lebanese tonight."

"Eaten here a few times and it just seems to even better. Seen a review saying this could be the best Middle Eastern restaurant in South Manchester and I wouldn’t disagree. The food is exemplary, staff are nice and depending when you go it varies from chilled quieter in the week to busy at weekends. It’s BYO drinks so if you’ve arrived not realising you can nip round the corner to Sainsbury’s local which is a few metres away. Food pics may not do it justice but it’s a classic meze choice of starters from humous dips, breads, baba ghanoush etc, mains are a great selection and desserts are classic Middle Eastern home cooked, the baklava is highly recommended. Vegetarian options: Plenty to choose from fully vegan to traditional vegetarian dishes. It’s a great choice for mixed groups. Parking: The paid parking at Village Square and Meadway are both less than a 100m away with loads of spaces and app parking (Ringo app) or coins, and only about 30p an hour. Don’t risk parking in unpaid spots or businesses as it upsets locals and you risk a fine as PCN are highly active with bramhall being a relatively compact village centre. Kid-friendliness: Very family friendly place albeit kids obviously need to like Middle Eastern food or be open minded. That said chicken skewers and rice is universally popular."

"We brought my father here for his 75th birthday and he had a wonderful time. The food was delicious and the service was excellent. Our waiter, Season, was attentive and took great care of us. We ordered a variety of mezze dishes, which was the perfect way to try a little bit of everything. We will definitely be returning to this restaurant. Highly recommended."

"Last week, I was invited to dinner at a new restaurant called Aline in Mayfair by PocketHighStreet, and it was without a doubt, the most food I’ve ever eaten in one sitting (and I grew up in Cyprus! I thought I was going to explode on the way home, but it was an incredibly satisfied feeling. As many of you may know, I love a sandwich (I seem to have written quite a few sandwich related posts recently! so when PocketHighStreet told me that Aline specialises in ‘gourmet sandwiches,’ I couldn’t have been more excited."

"Excellent food, freshly prepared by the owner chef of this independent little gem set amidst many restaurants and bars. Clean place, friendly service and great food at a good price. We had the 3 course meal for 2 including a bottle of wine for £50 so enjoyed many new tastes and finished with delicious Turkish tea and a chat with some of the regulars. Unfamiliar with the area we had walked up and down Old Christchurch Road for 30 minutes trying to decide which of the many restaurants we should dine in; Trip Advisor reviews, FSA ratings and the menus on display were helpful. We picked Saray for all those reasons plus seeing seemingly Turkish diners eating there which seemed a good advert for authentic, traditional cuisine. We were delighted with our decision, enjoying friendly, personal service from the waitress plus the owner chef who’s been running it for 14 years. Don’t be put off by the basic decor the room and company were warm and welcoming. We had a great evening and felt happy to have supported a local business. We would 100% recommend Saray."

"amazing!. we went here last night and were completely blown away by the food. we ordered the dalila mezze and main at £42, and it was absolutely delicious. the hommos beiruty was perfect, not too much tahini and a great resistance. the flesh was delicious. we have always tried only falafel, which is quite dry, but this was crispy on the outside and moist on the inside, and was a new experience. the owner tony and his personal did everything to make us feel at home and made sure we didn't want anything. baklava came at the end of the meal and again was exactly right, as it was not too sweet what it is often. we will definitely come back, and again, and again!. we could not read more"

"I really enjoyed the 30-course meze, but next time I think I'll choose something from the main menu instead, as the dishes looked delicious."
