5 /5 Jake Tilson: So glad to see Nandine open again on Vestry Road - best Kurdish food in town! Everything was absolutely delicious. We had: PAQLA Pan-seared tava beans in pomegranate molasses with chilli butter, paprika and mint SHEPHERDS SALAD Cucumber, tomato, parsley, red onion, pomegaranate and molasses AUBERGINE PLATTER Three way aubergine; Aubergine strip salad. Smoked baba ganoush Aubergine, chickpea, tomato qawarma. Served with zaatar flatbread LAMB SHANK QOZI Seared Lamb shank and the slow-cooked for 4 hours, with tomato, onion garlic, green pepper and potato. topped with fried rosemary, Only comment is that the small text for V, GF and prices on the menu is almost invisible! Might be my age.

5 /5 Carlos de Coro: I had a fantastic experience here! The place is spotless and feels very cozy thanks to the lighting and design. The service was admirable—the waitresses were incredibly kind and attentive. The food was delicious and beautifully presented, offering excellent value for money. Definitely a hidden gem that you dont want to miss!

5 /5 Zara Jay: Great food. Loved the lamb burger and the mezze platter, so many fantastic colours and spices, very well presented. The chips with the pomegranate and mint were amazing. The customer service was on point. The waiter was very knowledgeable about the food and the menu. Will definitely come back again.

5 /5 Mehak: What a hidden gem. My favourite place of 2023 so far! We ordered - ✨Shifta Burger with fries- Burger comes with 2 shifta patties which are full of flavours so you could have a juicy bite of beef in every bite. Loved the Beharat fries as well. They were seasoned with some mild spice mix & a sauce which was sooo good. ✨Mezze Dips- It comes with a selection of dips and a Za’atar bread. Their Red pepper dip is to die for. So yumm! The dips are good enough for 2 breads. Veggie Mezze- Kubba dumplings were so tasty that I might order a separate plate of kubba dumplings when I visit next. 7 spice chicken and rice- The chicken was so tender yet juicy and flavourful. So so good! All the dishes were amazing but my fav was the shifta burger with fries. Highly recommend this place for good Kurdish food.

5 /5 Libby Wales: Would highly recommend for breakkie or lunch. The breakfast platter was delicious and we shared baklava for a sweet treat. The boreks also looked amazing which I would get if passing! Only downfall was my oat milk latte which was possibly the strongest coffee I’ve ever had… almost undrinkably so!
