The lamb Kofta was juicy and flavorful 🤩. The chips were also great. We also ordered the lamb kabsa. Delicious.

Delicious food. Generous helping. Nice plating. Served with love. We had our Shwarma and Hummus. Possibly the best that I have had across many places.
I have been going to Al Kababgi quite often recently, stumbled upon this place when I first ordered the shawerma wrap from there takeaway menu. The shawerma was amazing juicy, the meat well done and the sauces on point.
I then tried today there lamb kabsa, overall the food was good the kabsa was given without sauce and felt drier, but the owner came over and brought the chilli sauce. Full marks for service, as he was very attentive and probably realised my struggle.
Fattoush was good too, right amount of tanginess.
I would definitely recommend the place for there shawerma, the lamb kabsa while good is not the best that I have tried.
Moss became an instant friend to our group of 14 from Florida Gateway College in Lake City,Fl. The food was beyond words!! Moss even came and helped sing HAPPY BIRTHDAY to one of the Professors. If we come back to London we'll be sure to stop by. Double Trouble
The food is just superb. I have been craving arabian food for months and I couldn't wait to get to London to start eating all the Arab food I can get. I had the kabsa then I had their mixed grill. Also their baklava is amazing!
My wife and I stopped by Al Kababgi on Queensway this evening and had a great dining experience. The restaurant was fairly empty as we arrived early in the evening. She ordered a lemonade with mint and I just had a Coke Zero (they brought a can). She said the lemonade was excellent, and ordered another before dinner was over. The waiter even gave her the recipe so she can make them at home.
We ordered hummus and tzatziki as appetizers, and they brought a basket of thin pita bread that was warm and perfect for dipping. All was delicious! I ordered lamb shish and my wife ordered chicken shish for our main. It was fresh, hot and delicious. It came with basmati rice cooked perfectly, along with sort of salad on the plate... red onions, shredded lettuce, and pickles. As a side note, we're from the US and have been surprised at the pickles here. They are a completely different taste than pickles in the US. We're used to pickles with an overwhelming vinegar taste, while these don't have a vinegar taste at all! Much better in my opinion.
The service was very good. They brought our drinks and food, and then left us alone unless we signalled to them that we needed something. They also gave us an excellent piece if baklava on the way out as a gift.
All in all, the food was great, the service was great, and it's worth another trip!
So perfectly balanced in terms of spices, excellent value for money in terms of the meal deals. The place has the sweetest staff, the owner is wonderful, the staff is wonderfully kind and keep taking regular feedback. Furthermore,the hygiene is excellent too.
Definitely recommend if you are around Queensway / Bayswater.
Will visit again.
Food was lovely, well presented, and delishious. Phooto after we started 😊
Amazing food !! (The Halloumi is especially recommendable)
Wonderful staff (they were always smiling and so polite. They also gave us Hummus & Baklava on the house!!)
We enjoyed our meal a lot!
And the food is made traditionally (we‘re Lebanese)
Highly recommend!! :)

I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a top-notch dining experience with delicious food and exceptional service. It's a gem that deserves all the praise!
I have been staying in the area and frequently walk past this place, so thought I’d stop by for lunch. So glad I did! Staff are friendly, the service is good and the food is excellent! The bread was fantastic, fresh, warm and delicious. I had the Tikka Chicken which was extremely well portioned, too much for me to finish and I’m a big guy. Flavours were great and authentic. Would highly recommend a visit
I was impressed with the food here. The staff are very nice. The portions are humongous and we were all hungry haha. Only thing negative is my kofta could of been cooked more on the grill. But overall very good :). Also, free dessert.
Excellent food and great service. The food is so fresh and tasty. One of the best meals I've had in a long time. Very friendly and jovial host too who we had a laugh with. I highly recommend this place
Attentive service. Walked in and felt the good vibe. The decor, the staff were very welcome and then music was played to accompany the mellow setting perfectly.
Food was quick and tasty. Kefta which was tasty. Well accompanied with salad, veg and chips. Followed by the authentic mint tea. Overall 5/5 no hesitation. Food can be taken away I believe also.
