Good service, good food! They only have brunch set on weekends but they are flexible to change some options. We changed the raw tuna to cauliflower as we don’t eat raw meat. We also changed one main dish to lamb rib. We love all the food!

Flatbread for the hummus dip is really nice but wish there was more of the tomato dip. We also had scallops, squid, lamb and beef cheeks. The best was the lamb - really flavourful and beef cheeks were super soft. The couscous under the beef cheeks was a bit underwhelming. Dessert was perfect and not too sweet. It was a bit like a bakclava.

It’s an amazing restaurant for friends and family. They serve delicious Mediterranean food with rich flavours and textures. The portions were just right for sharing. We shared 7 dishes among three of us. Each of them was beautifully presented and introduced by staff members when being served. There is a good balance of meat and vegetables on the menu. We were surprised by the vegetarian dishes, like smoked carrots with almond cream. The spring chicken was delicious too, very tender and juicy. Knafeh was a beautiful dessert to complete the meal. Thank you chef and all the staff members for a wonderful evening!

Perfect lunch!!! The stone baked frena and hummus are amazing~ Nicely seasoned and very smooth~ Roasted cauliflower is very tasty also, great that there’s chopped salad and lentil rice, it’s a well balanced meal in terms of nutrition 👍🏻 Milk pudding is a good ending, the candied kumquat add good amount of sweetness and flavour to it. Pistachio coffee is interesting, feel lucky I didn’t add the whole thing (pistachio syrup) into my coffee 🤣 The place is nice and comfy Staffs are all very friendly 💖

Very special and yummy middle east restaurant in Soho area. We tried the lamb ,wagyu beef cheek and scallops all very yummy with tender meat and special sauces . The dessert is brilliant , it is lemon yogurt ice cream with the pistachio, bird nest crunchy thingy and cheese inside!! And they match each other!!

We had high expectations going in and we were satisfied. Not one single bad dish. None. For appetisers, we had the hummus, the eggplant, the cauliflower and the calamari. The hummus is smooth and bright with just the right kick with the added spices. I am not a big fan of calamari in general, but this one also made me tried more than a few bites. The ink sauce was a nice touch but the chewiness of the calamari goes with the sauce is just like it was dancing on your tongue. The sour cream with the cauliflower is just out of this world, and the fried cauliflower is so crisp it’s just hits me hard and soft at the same time. But the star of the appetiser is the eggplant with the braised pepper. I dont even know how you can braise pepper to such a soft and tender texture that it carries the whole dish. For main we did the chicken and the beef skewer, and it looks just how it taste, juicy inside but crispy on the outside, and the sauces are just phenomenal. I was surprised at the fact that the beef isn’t too dry or stringy and coupled with the sauces and picked vegetables it just really rock my tastebuds. Finally the pistachio dessert is one to go for, no need for me to introduce. Fried with these noodle-like coating on the outside, the bread inside is soft and full, ready to soak in all the cream on top. One bite and you’ve got hot, cold, crisp, pillowy, sweet, savoury, and everything else. Absolutely phenomenal. The restaurant is nice for talking and a group of friends catching up, and we adore the servers there too. We stayed until a bit too late but they were nice enough and never bothered us. Will definitely go again.

The skewer set is a great deal. We were able to have a lot of the mezzes with the pita breads. The Knafeh dessert was amazing!

The tasting menu was so worth it ~ Every dish was well-presented and was so flavorful. The service was excellent, the staffs were very attentive and helpful. The soft lighting created a relaxed and intimate setting, while the gentle background music added just the right touch to make the space feel inviting. Would definitely come back again!! :)

I would not called it North African food. It is closer to middle eastern or Israeli cuisine. I must say it was one of the better middle eaters restaurants I have tried. Food was delicious although it was a little pricey, and the service was excellent. Please do give it a try. Now I understand why it is highly rated.
