Delicious food, outstanding decoration and lovely staff.
Fantastic and lovely tea and restaurant. Very well decorated and with nice relax atmosphere. The hummus is delicious. The desserts are also great! Traditional food at it best! We tried the ginger, apple, Turkish and jasmin teas
I’ll preface this by admitting a deep love for Middle Eastern cuisines, although this has been my first encounter with Syrian cuisine specifically. As a vegetarian I find the food from these countries tends to have a lot to offer in terms of hearty, bold non-meat dishes.
I work over the road so pop in often for a takeaway box to take to the park, with a variety of different selections from their counter, and every time I’m just blown away by how incredibly delicious they are, especially the mujaddara, which is surely one of the tastiest vegetarian dishes in existence. Indeed many of my colleagues have started going there regularly for lunch as well. Their baba ganoush deserves a mention too, as does the vegetable moussaka and the carrots with spicy tahini, and I’ve tried some of their cakes a few times too, and they’re also absolutely fantastic (especially the basbousa cheesecake). And the Arabic coffee is well worth the wait!
They offer flat bread with the box but I find the filled box more than sufficient myself! The prices are very reasonable; in fact you’d be hard pressed to find a similar sized meal of this quality in the area for the same price.
Staff are always friendly and attentive.
This place is an absolute gem and I’d highly recommend it to anyone, vegetarian or otherwise, if they love Middle Eastern flavours.
