The restaurant was clean inside, and they do have indoor seating, which made it easy to sit down and enjoy the meal. The food was actually pretty good. I got the lamb with herbs, I think it was called Shish, and I really enjoyed it. The meat wasn't dry, and they definitely didn't skimp on the veggies. The cooks were also really nice, which made the experience even better. Overall, this is a great spot if you're looking for something simple, tasty, and a little more balanced for lunch.

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!

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.
