"Awful and beyond disappointing. Pay attention to the vast number of negative Google reviews. I was there with two family members, lured by Time Out’s glowing review. However, I should have started asking questions from when I noticed how empty the place was. The food is tasty, but the experience is completely ruined by the shocking service. Staff are not just unkind – I don’t care for extra smiles or ceremony – they are plain rude, aggressive and resentful if you ask any questions or clarifications about the menu. Queries and mild complaints are greeted with denial, accusations that you are a stressful customer, insults and shouts. Also expect to wait at least 45 minutes for your food to start arriving and to be served at least 20 minutes apart – we were watching each other finishing our meals, before the next person was served. No hope to eat together there, unless you share your dishes as they are brought to the table. Also no explanation on the menu about spiciness. Time Out make light of the waiting times, or the abruptness of the service. However, there is no charm in rudeness. Eating out cannot be just about the food in your plate. It’s an experience you pay for, going from the surroundings to the social interactions with people around you. To waive all this, is taking away from all those restaurateurs who put their heart and soul into making their customers enjoy what they pay for. When we left the restaurant, we felt sick with disappointment. Dilara deserve's 1st place on Time Out's Worst Restaurants in London, if there is such a thing."

We loved our meal here. We had the chicken plate and it was glorious. Enough for two people or even three. Homemade noodles, a deep rich broth that could sustain you going up and down a mountain. We will come back !

Maybe the experience, service and food quality is all part of the Uyghur tradition, in which case I'd raise this to 4 stars. Either way, service was annoying and slow meat quality was terrible. I can see why people go there, but I would never go back based on what I experienced.

Food is delicious and I strongly recommend the rice dish with carrot and lamb. The restaurant is nicely decorated, clean and toilet is very clean as well. The service received was friendly and helpful. It will probably be better to go in a large group and try the bigger plate dishes. I will definitely visit again. View menu

I wouldn't give a single star cause they don't deserve it!!! The woman who was behind the counter, her customer service skills were very terrible and upsetting ...!!! I strongly recommend avoiding this Dilar Uyghur restaurant in order not to experience such a disgusting behavior...!!! Besides, the prices are rip off, I'm not surprised why there were not any customers...!!!

You could easily walk past this place on Blackstock Rd. Looks very much like a generic Turkish place with stainless pots of stew in the front window, but the Chinese? characters on the menus items is the giveaway. Staff are super friendly and welcoming. Food was great. It's kind of familiar, but with a twist. Starter dumplings were great, and Uygur herbal tea was delish. Will definitely go again.
