"We stumbled upon this restaurant by chance while walking around, and it turned out to be a hidden gem. Despite not having a reservation, we were promptly seated. Anna assisted us in choosing our dishes and provided excellent recommendations. The Baba Ganouj appetizer was superb, and my lamb kofte burger was equally delicious. The portions were generous and the food was served at the perfect temperature. Finally, Michael, who assisted us at the end of our meal, was extremely welcoming and even spoke to us in Spanish (the language spoken at our table). We would definitely return to this restaurant."

"Kambi’s was such an authentic experience. Most of the common eateries in the UK carry a taste palate to suit the locals however sometimes you are looking for that authentic experience where the taste is able to transport you to that place in ur head. Kambi’s is one such place. Being a vegetarian I got a plethora of options to choose from. Vegetarian Shawarma rolls, falafels and there was a dish with pita bread infused with halloumi inside which was heavenly. 5/5 on food; just a thing though that I felt that salt was a lil high for me. Usually I don’t expect much from service these days as its usually temporary staffing whose not much aware of the dishes and the culinary experience however here the service was great but could improve an inch. Overall, Recommended for sure!"

"This is the best Mediterranean food I have ever tasted. The dishes were incredibly fresh and packed with flavor. The chef was warm and welcoming, treating us like family. The dessert we took to go was absolutely amazing. We are only in town for a short visit but we definitely plan on returning to this restaurant!"

"We are not adventurous eaters and our waitress was very pleasant and patient with us explaining what was in the dishes, how they were cooked etc. We sat in a booth, nice and private so we could have a conversation. An appetizer was brought out for us to nibble on, flatbread, dip and carrot and celery sticks, while waiting for our food which came in a timely manner. We both chose avocado and prawns as a starter, followed by two different lamb dishes, both came piping hot and nicely presented. The portions are large! It was my wife's birthday and the staff placed a lit candle in her piece of cheesecake and sang Happy Birthday, what a lovely touch."

"The quality of food was good. Everything tastes fresh and homemade. The price is on average and the furniture is all right. The service was fine, just a bit of lack of ambient positivity in the atmosphere. We had 5 starters, 2 mains, 2 bottles of sparkly water for ~70£. The portions were enough for 3 persons."

"I went there with a group of 6 people as we were craving Lebanese food. The mezze was fine but the main dishes took more than an hour. We asked the guy to cancel the order because we had to go catch the coach but they refused and said that the food was coming so we had to wait 5 more minutes and I wish we didn’t! The food was so bad, the Shawarma was so dry and almost burnt and the rest of it was so tasteless. In the end I had to pay for that bad food, miss my coach and pay for another ticket... That was my first and last time I go there."

"We have been regulars to the mevan since it opened in Leighton and when lockdown happened we missed our favourite Turkish restaurant, as we had many family parties there and we were always treated like royalty by the owners.Then we see that if was being refurbished and found out it was under new ownership we couldn’t wait to see and see if the food was still amazing and hoping to see if the old staff had been retained.We were not disappointed, great refurb and as we walked in there was a new greeter and then the old manager came and gave us a big hug and the best barman in town was still there.We were sat down and it was like we were at home with complimentary shot and nothing was a problem.It was was great to see the restaurant packed and atmosphere great and being treated the same by the new and old staff. The menu had changed slightly and prices had been increased, but this would be expected but the service and food was still amazing if not better.Fully recommend the new look food and restaurant And Alex is the best shot maker and the staff are awesome.See you soon guys and ladies."

"Unfortunately, this 1-star review is based on the fact that we didn't actually get to try the food. Booked online for lunch time and received confirmation email. Turned up a bit before booking time but after restaurant was supposed to be open. It wasn't. Door was closed and locked (there was a confused looking delivery driver waiting outside too who eventually gave up and left). While waiting, several apparent staff members turned up and had to bang on a side door to be let in, all pointedly not acknowledging our presence waiting outside the main door. Booking time arrived. Still closed and locked (and looking through window they didn't look like they were close to opening). Tried knocking. No answer. Tried phoning. No answer. Not even to apologise for running late. Booking time came and went. We gave up and left. If the website allows a time to be booked, and I book a specific time then I expect the restaurant to BE OPEN AND READY BY THAT TIME. And since this cost a long train ride into London, its not something I will risk again."

"We stumbled upon a unique gem in Durham called Shaheen's. Despite a power outage in the area, Shaheen's remained open and welcoming on a cold and rainy night. Adam, the son of founder Bob, greeted us warmly, giving the restaurant a family-run feel. The food showed a genuine passion for family recipes, with well-managed spice levels and flavorful dishes. We tried starters like the fried onion, mushrooms and garlic, and a lamb kabob, with the kabob standing out as a favorite. The black dal was a pleasant surprise. For mains, we enjoyed the Chicken tikka, which was both mild and spicy, paired with brown basmati rice and garlic naan. Overall, Shaheen's is a homestyle restaurant where you feel cared for. We will definitely be back for more. Cheers, Shaheen's!"

"When you don't know what or where to eat... follow your nose. That's how we finally have known this place. We didn't know which place to choose in the street plenty of restaurants and cafes, so, we select this one for the simple smell that was on the road. We weren't disappointed. What a delicious surprise of tastes and ingredients! From the first bite to the last one you will enjoy different meals so far from the classic pizza or burger. If you want to eat something else, and something really good, come and eat! I recommend it to you so much that it could be a part of a tourist guide."

"Less pleasing experience than previously: very noisy and overcrowded. Difficult to navigate to get to the loo etc. Fine evening so asked to sit outside at the back. Was told that no longer exists! Why? Food fine, if unmemorable. Wine expensive for a pub. Saving grace was our waiter, Nicolas. Cheerful, efficient, informative, good eye contact. Brought food quickly considering how busy he was and what he had to contend with. We came here because of previous pleasant experiences but are in no hurry to return. Could do better QH&A!"

"chelsea kitchen has changed pretty much in the last decades. I remember being given as a child, but still remember that it is with fantastic eating and a busy atmosphere. in its new position, the overall quality of food has gone a bit down. I had lasagne, a parmesan salad and ice for dessert, while my friend had chicken parmesan and ice for dessert. my food came all together (the dessert that was ordered later) the lasagne was more of a meat pot that tasted good, but really was not what was expected. the chicken parmesan looked good, although he wasn't too big, after my friend. it also seemed to be a local drunkenness during the meal. surprise others have good things to say about this place."
"Being honest, I usually avoid places like this due to my own personal beliefs in regards to halal. However, I am extremely pleased I took up a friends recommendation, have ordered take out from here practically two nights in a row! Myself and Mrs are that impressed, meat is flavourful, fish is stunning, impressive portions of halloumi, the only negative I have so far found across 5 different main courses ordered is that the veg is overcooked and has very little flavour to it, but that may just be because it’s steamed further after being sent out on delivery! Worth noting that the delivery guys have been the most polite I’ve encountered, our order this evening was even handed over with an apology for being literally 2 minutes past the delivery time stated! Thoroughly impressed! Fantastic food! Filling but not bloating in any way! Will be returning as a regular! Cant understand the bad reviews based on my current experiences!"

"The food is incredible! I had been to Turkey before, and I can confidently say that this is the best I’ve ever had! The meat is well-marinated, incredibly tender, and juicy. The sauce is outstanding! The waiter was very friendly, and the chef even came out to greet us with warm smiles. I will definitely be back in the near future. Thank you so much for the amazing food!"

"My partner and I tried this restaurant for the first time on Friday night. We were blown away by how wonderful it was. Jane, our server, was delightful. The food was simply amazing. I ordered the lamb with sweet potatoes, while my partner had the stuffed peppers. We were not disappointed at all - the food was incredibly tasty and bursting with flavor. The portion sizes were generous as well. We are looking forward to coming back and trying more dishes from the menu. Thank you, Jane, for a lovely evening."

"Having lived in London 33 years, I knew this restaurant existed, always wanted to visit, now I regret not coming sooner. There are thousands of trendy, go to places in this city, most are all style over substance. This place gives a you a warm Cypriot/Greek hug, rarely found these days. No frills or fanciness, they know what they are doing and do it well. It is like stepping back in time but that is not a bad thing.It makes you feel like and old friend you met in a taverna in Ayia Napa. The food is as Greek/Cypriot as you can get. Generous, well cooked and delicious. The Dolmades are divine but the Kleftiko is the star, a very slow cooked large piece of lamb cooked till it completely falls off the bone.Rice is cooked in stock with tiny slivers of pasta. To be honest it is all of a very high standard.The prices are extremely reasonable. This is not art on a plate. You will need a hefty appetite, leaving full, satisfied with a warm glow, The music will stay in your head and adds to the atmosphere. I brought a friend for his birthday on Thursday lunch, decided to return yesterday with another friend, both loved it.The staff are welcoming, lovely and a joy. This place is just what it says on the tin. If any one criticizes they have never eaten great food in a Greek/Cypriot restaurant before.."
