One of my favourite meals I’ve had this month!! I’m so happy we found this place. The atmosphere is incredibly relaxing and intimate. The staff are wonderfully helpful and attentive. But the food…!!!! Every dish we ordered was so well-balanced and moreish. We didn’t order any meat dishes this time but I’m very excited to come back and try them!
Palmyra felt like being invited and cared by a friend, the hostess first said wouldn't be possible without reservation, but said if we were fast we could get the table inside. Lovely people working in Palmyra that just serves you flavorful Arabic food with some memories of home. Felt is a cozy place and dishes were well served, just wished the quibeh would come more. Really delicious!!!
Great experience at this restaurant! The staff is very friendly and helpful, and the food is absolutely wonderful!
I also had the chance to taste my first turkish style coffee here, and the staff was really kind to take the time to explain me the difference with regular coffee as I was curious! Loved the experience, will probably go back there when I can!
This is genuinely the best Lebanese of the area! The food is excellent and the staff extremely kind and attentive. First time I experienced Palmyra’s it was delivered, it was so great that I had to come to dine in. If you are a fan of eastern Mediterranean cuisine your expectations will be exceeded here.
I will definitely come back here! ♥️
Food very tasty! Customer service, amazing!! Totally recommend for people who never tried Lebanese or Syrian food!!
Amazing food and very professional and friendly service. We had a selection of Lebanese starters selected by the owner and grilled chicken with rice and it was so delicious we would have come back the next day if we had been staying the area longer! Great value Lebanese wine as well. Will definitely come back again!
One of the best restaurants in Finsbury (and probably London)! Been here a couple times and is amazing everytime. The best lamb I have tasted in a long time. Super affordable too - £7.50 for a lamb wrap is insane. Will be back!!!
A cute shop very close to the Finsbury Park tube station. Friendly staff and food smells really good upon entry, where the kitchen’s at.
I bought a lamb wrap recommended by the staff, and it was the most delicious wrap I’ve had in a while. Very tender meat, flavourful sauces and I’ve never expected the wrapping would surprise me but it did. It was all crispy and charcoal flavoured from the grill, compliments the filling so well.
Would definitely come back for more!
Fantastic!!!!
The food is fantastic, the service is fantastic, the atmosphere is fantastic.
I cannot reccomend this place enough. Go and try for yourself.
Lovely restaurant and very accessible from Park Theater and the station. Had the lamb shank and the traditional tea (Matteh) today & both were amazing! The meat was tender, falling from the bone and the tea came with extra hot water to refill, as well as sugar to sweeten according to personal preference. Note: If you want lots of vegetables better order a vegetarian meal. Service was attentive, professional and quick. Bill came with sweets. Overall very good value for money and highly recommended. Will go again if I'm in the area!
Fabulous food with great service. Not sure about authentic breads though.
Absolutely delicious! My partners mum found this restaurant and we enjoyed a meal here before heading to a film. Everything was so tasty and of very high quality. Will go again!
So impressed! Incredible food, wonderful atmosphere, would absolutely recommend. Really catered for dietary requirements too. Stumbled across coincidentally and have come back regularly ever since. My meat eating friends said the lamb was to die for , great when a place does both so well!
Possibly the best falafel wrap I have had in London. Indisputably better than the place a stone's throw away glowingly reviewed by Giles Coren. You can taste the charcoal on the bread, which is proper Middle Eastern flatbread, and the freshness of sumac. The falafel is also delightfully crispy and well seasoned. Would travel for a wrap this good. And even better it's great value at less than £7.
Cozy restaurant with very cordial, attentive, unobtrusive service. One of the first things that caught my attention as I entered was their huge grill, and a slight fragrance of smoke seasoning - both good signs! I had the shawarma wrap, the meat was tender, juicy and popping with flavour! The wrap was made in a thin flat bread that was pleasantly crisp from a light grilling. A dollop of sour cream and a dusting of sumac, with picked vegetables for crunch rounded it off well. I also had and enjoyed the baklava. The pistachio mastic ice cream had great texture but didn't have a depth of flavour, I will stick with the baklava when I come back, which will be soon.

Great vibe, friendly staff, lovely background music. Saturday 6pm was quite a busy time with many bookings but we managed to get a walk-in table after waiting.
Food:
Mixed grill with chips - chicken & lamb were flavourful & succulent. Please try the mayonnaise, it's your typical Arabic garlic mayo, so fresh and full of flavour, you'd even want to take some home for your next sandwich 🥪 lol
Hummus - just like my homemade hummus, puts all other shop-bought hummus to complete and utter shame. I don't think you'd enjoy regular hummus after this lol.
House red wine (Lebanese) - I was not expecting much but I really enjoyed this, could easily get a 3.8 star rating, which is actually outstanding for a house wine. Dry, medium bodied with a long finish. On the palate: red Plum, liquorice, develops into peppery, Grape skin tannins.
On the nose: quite simple and not much on the nose, possibly because I'd been cycling in the cold.
In summary, I'd highly recommend this place 💯 and will be back here soon.
Been twice and will continue to travel from zone 5 south to Finsbury Park for this restaurant. The food is ALWAYS immaculate the waiters are amazing the atmosphere is like no other. Very intimate very nice 10/10
I cannot recommend Palmyra's Kitchen enough! My partner and I chose Palmyra's to celebrate our 5 year anniversary while we were in London and it was absolutely perfect. We ordered:
Apps
-Chilli Moutabal Baba Ghanouj
-Labneh
-Mouhammarah
-Jawaneh
-Fatayer B’sabanekh
Main
-Lahem Meshwi
Everything was delicious and it feels impossible to choose a favorite... but I have to say the Jawaneh, Baba Ghanouj, and Mouhammarah are must-orders! Both my partner and I were surprised at how tender and flavorful the chicken wings were. On top of the impeccable flavors, the service was amazing. We felt very taken care of and the staff really creates a warm, welcoming atmosphere. Palmyra's would be an excellent option for vegetarians/vegans and meat-eaters alike, there are so many options for everyone. AND it's all very reasonably-priced! I'll definitely be returning to Palmyra's whenever I'm in London next!
