Dishoom is a popular place but the dinner line for 3 on a weeknight…read morewasn't too bad (they don't take reservations), I thought the line moved fairly fast and at some point they handed out small sample cups of chai to us which was nice. It's very spacious inside. Although their black bean dish Black House Daal is popular, I don't think it's something I'd reorder because I don't like beans that much in general. As a chicken tikka masala fan, I enjoyed their butter chicken the most. It's the closest thing they have to chicken tikka masala--which they don't have, they only have chicken tikka which is dry and quite spicy, has no creamy sauce. I also liked the okra fried, which is a type of fry I'm not used to seeing! It's got flavor, and I also loved the chutney and sauces on the table! I enjoyed a Dishoom Margarita which was strong in alcohol content and flavor, and a nice addition to the meal. They have an interesting drink menu, where you will find lots of nonalcoholic and rather healthy options! They have a small shelf in the middle of the room where they sell some of their chai and cookbooks amongst other things.

I just do not understand the hype surrounding this restaurant. It's hard to get a reservation and…read morethere's a long queue to get a table without one. I just don't get it. In my opinion, there are 2 main things to know about Dishoom: it's an Indian restaurant that is a chain, with 11 locations worldwide. The food is really good for a chain, bit it doesn't begin to come close to a restaurant that takes care of of its individual customers. Walking in, there's lots of energy. People are having a good time, there's no question. We were seated upstairs where there must have been around 40 tables. All of the staff are walking around in a hurry, cause everything here is in a hurry. The intention is to get you our in less than an hour. They want you in, through, and out. I saw this with multiple tables. Our server Yanko came to our table quite promptly and helped us make selections, both for food and drinks. For the first time in my experience eating in a restaurant, the appetizers arrived minutes before our cocktails. They came so fast that we didn't even think it was our order. And then moments after the drinks arrived, all of the main dishes and sides were placed on the table. With no way to keep anything warm. All of this with 10 minutes of placing the order. I appreciate prompt service, but this takes it to an absurd extreme. Our appetizers included the house Chaat and prawn koliwada. I enjoyed the prawns more but the flavors were facile, not close to what I expect and have enjoyed in excellent Indian restaurants. The main dishes were the Goan monkfish curry and Sali Goan. These were also just OK, absolutely nothing special. The cheese naan was soggy, though the flavor was good. This was an unacceptable texture for a naan. Dessert was Basmati Kheer, flavorful Basmati rice with fruit compote on top. In between and unneeded, was a thin layer of creme brulee. I did enjoy my tea: ginger, lemon and honey and my wife liked her mint tea. I do not know the restaurant scene in Edinburgh, we've been here for 4 days. But this is just not a place I'deven consider returning to. It's really a factory that feeds folks, not a restaurant that cares for its customers. The business model had been optimized to maximize income with lots of throughput. What's been almost completely lost in my opinion, is the heart and soul of the dining experience.

I will give a 5 star for this excellent Lebanese Restaurant Cafe Nouf. It was our last day in…read moreLondon. After having stored our luggages @ Victoria Bus Station we headed for this Halal Lebanese Restaurant in London. The man that greeted us was truly magnificent with his charm, service & warmth. The cafe's ambience was excellent. We were a family of four having lunch. The food we had was very tasteful & filling. We had an excellent time & meal there. It was truly a memorable occasion. After our lunch we had to hurried our way to Heathrow to catch our flight home. The man that served us told us that the Boss of the Cafe gave us a complimentary dessert to bring along for our journey. It was really neat & sweet as we were told to wave to his Boss through the CCTV. We recommend others to try this Lebanese Cafe called Cafe Nouf in the heart of London near Victoria Station. Food were nice & lovely and the price is reasonably affordable.

Nothing to phone home about. I had the pork belly and while it was tender and the portion was…read moregenerous it was not well seasoned and the crust was chewy and inedible for me. I like a crispy crackle on top of my pork belly. The red cabbage was okay but came in a separate dish and I wasn't too sure what I was meant to do with it. The dish was accompanied by a meat gravy which when I tried it overpowered the delicate flavors of the pork. Being quite hungry I also ordered potato gratin but the potatoes were a little hard and undercooked. There also wasn't very much sauce and in some instances was just potato on potato with no sauce in between. If I came here again I'd probably have the steak since it is called steak & co so that's their specialty. Service was as expected, my water cup was kept filled and received the bill when requested. Overall just okay really. Ambiance was typical for a chain restaurant. Not too loud and nothing to complain about.

I'm a big fan of Halal Guys and was stoked to hear London was getting one. Excited to not have to…read morewait for the trips to New York to satisfy the street meat craving! Unfortunately like some other restaurants that made their way to London from abroad, this was also cursed of not being the same in a bad way. What a shame! I usually get the mixed platter and stuck to that. The salad was crisp and nicely chopped, liked it better than the NY version. The lamb was far off, seemed to be lacking in spice. The chicken was closer, but was again not as good. Service was good - the staff were very great and energetic. One of the members of staff was even walking around to give top ups on red + white sauces. Kudos to that! With the disappointing taste, unless I'm not heading to NYC for some time, I shall wait to fill the street meat fix in NYC.

I decided to give halal guys a try after hearing so much hype about this place…read more I opted for the combo platter, which is dry, tasteless, unappealing pieces of discoloured chicken. Dried out, disgusting pieces of unseasoned beef. Poor quality white rice that was turned orange by whatever they use to turn it that colour. A massive portion of lettuce - the only decent thing on the platter, a tiny scattering of something that resembled tomatoes and four pieces of stale pitta bread. Their "World famous" white sauce is offensively bland. As someone who loves hot spicy food, I also tried their hot sauce. Another one of their "World famous" offerings. Hot sauce is not that hot and has no hint of any flavour. When I went to the till to pay for this c r a p, I was presented with a grotesquely ugly, fat, orange haired, insecure, weak, incompetent manager with a vomit inducing narcissistic personality disorder. Due to his inability to communicate effectively in English, I was unable to understand the gibberish nonsense pouring from his revolting gob. A member of staff intervened and communicated effectively on his behalf, which going by his body language left him feeling deeply humiliated. After all the unnecessary confusion, instead of him conducting himself in a professional manner he rudely chucked my change on the counter. I am absolutely disgusted that an employee especially a manager could behave in such an appalling way especially when this shop has recently opened. Halal guys is desperately trying hard to be different but failing on every level. The three old greedy owners and those on a management level are crazy to think the halal guys is not a kebab shop when in fact it is nothing but a glorified kebab shop. This shambolic, pompous kebab shop is over-hyped beyond words and overpriced. The halal guys have zilch to offer in quality, taste, experience and value.

Surprisingly great meal. I have a very, very high bar for steakhouses and was pleasantly surprised…read more Most of the great steakhouses obviously have a great steak, so they can only differentiate themselves with the other dishes. That said, if a steakhouse can't get the temperature of the beef right, it's game over. My ribeye was cooked perfectly, great sear but not over cooked at all. Normally I like my steak served whole, they sliced it here, but it worked. My burrata starter was good, a little light on the tomatoes but with a paste that kept it from being too cheesey. The reason I would come back, however, was the charred cabbage. I never thought I would want to return anywhere for cabbage but it was great. Multiple levels of flavor and the char worked perfectly. The cauliflower with hummus and pomegranates was also fantastic, two sides that make Zelma special. Prices were reasonable for Knightsbridge, and service was very pleasant despite a couple of small hiccups. Looking forward to returning.
