Reviews
"Meticulously executed cross between fine dining and home cooking. Authentic Algerian with a 21st century twist served in lovely Arab platters and bowls. Atmospheric interior with colourful rugs and carpets. Soft North African background music. Very friendly owners. BYOB"
"It’s clearly the best Algerian restaurant I’ve been to. An Authentic Algerian food revisited and made with love by a passionate chef. I highly recommend this place. the dishes were extremely tasty served by a very welcoming and friendly staff within a unique atmosphere."
"This is one of those restaurants that I just know the food was done at its very best. And I say it to only a few restaurants. The salmon main with couscous was amazing. I can taste the good olive oil from the fluffy couscous. Salmon was crispy on the outside, with the ginger added slight spiciness, the sauce and the chickpeas .. all the flavors matched perfectly together, I can never get enough of it. You need to try the rice pudding dessert as well. So unique and tasty. I love rice pudding and this is the best I’ve had. The owner Jay is very a highly talented chef. He learned cooking from his mother, and the dishes are tradition with his personal twist. I just love their food so much. Thank you so much for the incredible experience."
"The best North African food we’ve found in London! The host was so lovely and welcoming, and the food was absolutely delicious. We will be booking our next holiday to Algeria soon! I can’t recommend Khamsa highly enough"
