This was perfect for two people for a light lunch. The meat was so flavorful, cooked to perfection. The rice was just right and the cabbage salad was excellent. My husband said he'd return just for that! The gentlemen working behind the counter were friendly and answered our questions. We finished the meal with the baklava - some of the best I've had. Sometimes it is overly sweet but not here at Skewers. We will happily go back for another lunch if our time permits during our stay. Excellent meal!

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!

If you don't like the smell of meat grilling and it getting into your clothes and hair, this isn't the place from you. Everyone here is very helpful and the vibe of the restaurant and staff is lively and upbeat. Everything here is served tapas style, so feel free to share or not. The food is pretty great and worth a visit or two, because I didn't have enough stomach room to try every single dish. We ordered naan, labneh, za'aluk, artichoke, oyster mushroom, cauliflower, and finally lamb. You can watch and smell everything that's being made and it's all tasty. The dishes are so flavorful and fresh - I know these are generalizations, but dining here is worth it.
