"Having recently been subjected to a number of over priced, snotty, lack lustre restaurants that had left me utterly depressed and frustrated, I was more than relieved to step into Arnika on a sunny week day evening, a modest little Persian restaurant in my local hood of Harlesden. Sitting outside Arnika doesn't afford Parisian style views but it matters not a jot when the manager is most welcoming, polite and entirely happy for you to BYO without a corkage charge. Excellent start. In the mood for a little mezze, four of us chose a range of meat and vegetarian starters that were ludicrously cheap and had me wondering how on earth people could survive in the face of gigantic London rents and rates. Anyway to the food. Prettily presented, I am delighted to say we were in total unison about the delicious, fresh, clean tasting dishes that were put before us. Saffron and garlic chicken wings served with a garlic aioli; crisp pastries encasing succulent chicken with a tangy, fiery tomato salsa; creamy hummus topped with tiny but juicy pieces of lamb; babaganoush which was eagerly scooped up with super thin flat bread; a couple of the house salads which were adorned with feta and walnuts. This sort of food is neither complicated nor requires years of training in a sweaty French kitchen. It is, however, honest, simple fare that involves thought, spankingly fresh ingredients and a cook who knows about flavour combinations. Get this will you? We had no room for mains and so we asked for the bill. It came to a whopping £30. For those of you who are **** at maths, that means you would be £7.50 lighter of pocket. Shut the front door! By the way, I shouted about Arnika on the local Harlesden FB page and since then, I have heard nothing but similar reports from very happy customers. I should cocoa. Well done Arnika; If they don't make it, it will be a sad day for us all."

great eating too cheap trips. the olive and chicken wings are excellent appetizers, while the row of spits of lamb and chicken are extremely good, with generous portions plus rice and salat. byo makes it a particularly attractive offer for those in a tight budget.

This place is fantastic! The bread is my favorite and the hummus was amazing. The food is incredibly fresh, the staff is very friendly, and the prices are surprisingly affordable. Harlesden should have more restaurants like this one, and Arnika deserves to be full every night. View menu

Arnika is a fantastic Persian restaurant located in the bustling area of Harlesden. They serve both lunch and dinner options. The owners are very welcoming and ensure that patrons feel at home. My personal favorites from their menu are the spicy chicken wings, Joujeh chicken, and the delicious fresh bread and dips. I also highly recommend trying their freshly made juices. Additionally, they offer a separate space for private parties or events.

I'd like to start by saying I always rush to write bad reviews when I have a bad experience but never a good review when I have a good experience so I would like to say I always have trouble when it comes to delivery from any restaurant, however I thought I'd try deliveroo, and ordered from this restaurant, after one hour I was told by deliveroo the food is ready and going to be collected however I then had to call for an update as the food did not arrive and they advised me that they have no drivers and food will not be delivered I was not happy, I then decided to contact the restaurant to see what could be done, such amazing customer service and so polite they offered to deliver the food f...
