In a very diverse London neighborhood of Golders Green, where a huge portion of service…read moreestablishments are closed for business on any given Saturday - for religious observances, this Mediterranean breakfast/lunch cafe was a welcome respite after a night of travel. Concise menu of all-sorts egg dishes, salads, coffees, desserts, wines, etc. They were willing to customize my dish - big plus. Friendly service with a smile. Eggs were perfectly cooked, and sides were well seasoned. Uncomplicated plating. Place was relatively clean. What irked me was the second hand smoke: the cigarette smoke wafting in from the side walk seating area through the open door... (cough cough) And just another note (because I'm an uptight auditory hypersensitive person): the chairs need foot pads!!! Breakfast for two: £18.50 ($22.50)

Where to start? As I walked in, most of the tables had dirty…read moredishes and half-eaten food still on them. It took me a minute to find one that seemed clean. It looks like the staff doesn't bother cleaning the tables after customers leave, even when they had nothing else to do. The staff was rude, the food arrived late, and when it did, it was the wrong dish - I'd asked for the Aubergine Shakshuka, which comes with feta cheese, and got the plain Shakshuka. Upon mentioning it the waitress didn't look bothered, and simply asked if she should bring me aubergine on the side. I chose to keep the one I've already gotten, only to find that it's bland and watery. Overall, not a great experience.

The eggs tasted as if they had been mixed with something odd, had been pre-done and sitting there for a few hours under a heater - just not fresh. We were not served any bread, the espresso was bitter, the white-looking substance that was cheese (I think), I didn't even touch. But on the flip side, the salmon was good. Breakfast for two: £25

Two of us had the lamb gyro and one had chicken shwarma, and one had the falafel lunch special. The service was very friendly, and the food came out in good order. I just wish I had ordered the chicken since the lamb was nor very tender. It wasn't bad, just a little bit too tough for my taste. I think I had in my mind that the gyro would be life the American style, sliced off that big hunk of rotating meat on a spit, while this was actual lamb. The bread served with the meal was excellent as was the plate of pickles, olives and turnips. The restaurant was clean and the service was friendly as well. Just stay away from the lamb if you want tender meat.

After a long day of walking around London, we found our way back to Camden Town and were starved…read more And it was 10 p.m. A bag of crisps wasn't gonna cut it. Enter Istanbul. Kebabs? Sure! But let me tell you...this is SO much more than just another kebab shop! I wish I could tell you what we ordered, but I can't. Mine was a stewed lamb atop hot bits of pita and slathered in their house sauce (like sour cream.) Oh good lawd IT WAS SO GOOD! Also equally delish was the hummus and pita. Service was super, food was amazing. Do yourself a favor and visit! I wish we were locals so we could eat our way through the entire menu. P.S. They do Uber Eats/new delivery if that's more convenient for you!

OMG! So much food…read more Between the 2 of us, we ordered 1 main course (iskander kebab) and 3 starters (sausages, imam bayildi - stuffed aubergine and falafel). The food was all super tasty, but we had so much leftover! Both of us had skipped lunch and were having early dinner, but we barely put a dent on the amount of food that arrived. As soon as we ordered, we were brought Turkish style bread lovingly buttered and 4 different dips (hummus, minty yoghurt, cheese and a tomato one). This itself would have been a sufficient meal for us both. The falafel came settled on a bowl of hummus. The side salad with the main arrived in a plate of its own. Service was very fast and the lady serving us was lovely as were the line of chefs we passed by on our way in and out. When you peep through he window, it looks like a tiny kebab place, but they have really comfortable seating at the back. Some of the other places we wanted to eat at in Camden on a Friday night were completely full, so we entered this place on a whim, but left completely dated and satisfied.

A friend of mine had raved about Ottolenghi when she heard I was coming to London, so this…read morerestaurant was at the top of my must-try list. Maybe my friend over-sold it and got my expectations up too high, because I was pretty disappointed in this dinner. We were asked if we wanted still or sparkling water. We said still and were brought out a £4.50 bottle. I know it's common to charge for water in Europe, so I didn't think much about it until I noticed that everyone else around us had refillable glass bottles -- free tap water that we were never even told was an option. We were seated downstairs at a large communal table. I don't necessarily mind that, but it was so loud that having a conversation was very difficult. My cocktail was delicious, but so tiny. The wine list was decent -- a good mix of options at various price points. As for the food, it was very hit or miss. The mushroom starter and the pork main dish were delicious. Unfortunately, the two most expensive dishes were disappointing. The prawns had great flavor, but a strangely soft, mushy texture. For me, the flavor made the weird texture okay, but my husband couldn't get over the mushiness of the shrimp and hated this dish. The sea bream was very bland and dry -- highly disappointing for the most expensive item on the menu. We ended on a high note with the affogato dessert (Yum!), but for such an expensive meal, there were just a few too many misses for us.
