“ 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. ”
“ 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 ”
“ 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 give 5 stars for playing Quran on TV. It melted my heart and I am so glad that I went there just because of this! That really made my day. Food was ok but I really enjoyed listening to Quran there. Thanks for the staff who played it on TV instead of shameless music clips )))) ”
“ 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! ”
“ 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. ”
“ 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! ”
“ The lamb Kofta was juicy and flavorful . The chips were also great. We also ordered the lamb kabsa. Delicious. ”
