Wonderful place for a delicious, authentic, friendly, and all around great dining experience! My…read morefriends and I visited this surprisingly underrated restaurant for dinner after literally searching "ethnic food" into Google Maps and were not disappointed. The decorations and general ambiance were very North African, and we watched the owner make the food right in front of us! It felt incredibly intimate, authentic, and homemade. We ordered a sampler of all the dips (listed on the menu as salads) and split three of the mains. It was probably more food than we needed, but everything was flavorful and beautiful. The prices were also surprisingly reasonable by London standards. We had made reservations for dinner but it wasn't very busy, so I wouldn't worry too much about booking ahead. This place definitely deserves more recognition!

Why choose between the seven delicious sounding appetizers when you can get the sampler and get to try them all? From the vegetarian tajine to the chicken cous cous to the lamb meatballs, each dish was unique in flavor and really delicious.

We sat at the bar to start and my husband had a delicious cocktail, an easy speak, which featured an artichoke amaro, FEW rye and sugar. I opted for two veg dishes, the burrata with peaches, which I can never resist and an interesting roasted aubergine tossed with black lime and toasted coconut flakes. My husband has lamb kofti.
