Mandaloun

I had been to the one in Westfield once before and was disappointed by their service and food, however, I thought it best to give this location a try. The restaurant was quiet on this Monday night which worked in our favour as the service was very good, we were very well looked after. Their fattoush is very good here, the dressing is amazing. The cheese rolls and spinach fatayer I have had better however it was ok, the food came a tad cold. Their falafel is very filling as well! With just a few starter selections between two of us we got full pretty quickly! So the portions are very good and generous! Their freshly squeezed orange and carrot juice mix was very good. We were so full, I did not try their dessert menu on this occasion. Although I won’t be running back to this location either as it is not one of the best Lebanese restaurants I have tried in London. However it is definitely way better than the Westfield one so this one gets a thumbs up for that. I would also recommend going on a quiet day to ensure the service is good/​better than usual! As they say in Lebanese (Sahteen!) which basically means cheers/​Bön appetit

Nice and cosy Lebanese restaurant, with good prices for its location. They have a few tables in terrace particularly pleasant in the summer to watch the evening crowd going from bar to bar. Great mezzes to share with a friend over the meanders of a never ending chat, and to finish off with a shisa and mint tea.
