Al Zain Restaurant & Lounge - (Near Camden, South East)

SOFIAXND It was my first time trying Persian food, and I absolutely loved it! Coming from a Mediterranean country, Im used to dishes rich in flavour, and this place truly impressed me! The atmosphere was warm and cosy, and the service was excellent. It has definitely set a high standard for Persian cuisine for me. I would highly recommend it!

Dr Afshin The Flat café is fantastic the fresh croissants are absolutely delicious and the atmosphere is great. It’s a perfect spot to sit and get some work done, enjoy a good coffee, or even have a casual meeting.

Tania Martins Fantastic place; huge portions of food; so so so tasty. The best place to eat ,drink and relax as a proper Portuguese restaurante . I advice yo all foodie people to try it .

Frazer Bennett What magical mystery these people weave. The smallest of kitchens gives up the largest of flavours. You may find this restaurant quite bijot in size, but I tell you the food, the welcome, and the atmosphere will not disappoint. Try the cocktails, and definitely have the pickles. As for the main courses, well, we are working our way through the entire menu. Chicken was a winner. As was the squash. Will update you further, dear reader, when we return. My final recommendation? This place gets booked up. I recommend you make TWO reservations, a month apart perhaps, because I guarantee you will want to come back!

Greta Came here for breakfast to introduce my partner to Goan street/ breakfast food. Goa is a small state in India but the flavours pack a bold punch. What makes it unique from mainstream indian food is the use of coconuts, vinegar and the Portuguese influence on the cuisine. If you are in the area, you have to try it. They have an extensive menu that covers Goan street food, thalis, indo Chinese food, seafood, pork and beef dishes. Good service and nice ambience. We had the mix bhaji puri- potatoes and white peas curry and puris that’s typically eaten as a breakfast dish… it takes me back to the little cafes in Goa, ros omelette- a popular street food which consists of an omelette drenched in a curry similar to xacuti (coconut based), chicken lollipops- deliciously crispy chicken served with a schezuan dip, and beef croquets- snack made with minced beef. We also had the chikoo milkshake because you can’t say no to seeing chikoo on the menu!

James Doherty Superb cafe. Great atmosphere and always great value. I’ve become a regular after hospital appointments. It’s a great change of scene for anyone spending time in the hospital, or waiting for other. And it’s got a fantastic local feel too, even though many guests come from Hampstead Heath or the Royal Free. This is rare in London and very very welcome.
