"We wanted to try out Lebanese food and Balila was close enough to not go. We also noticed all the good reviews and decided to visit for a late lunch. We didn't make a mistake! This family run restaurant and take away joint is a small gem. The owners welcomed us to their restaurant and it was clear that they are proud to cook for us. The quality as well as the quality of the food is very good. All dishes were presented well and seemed freshly cooked. The lamb shank is a must try. The meat on the bone was super soft and the tangy sauce on top made the overall taste go up another notch. The open plate of shwarma weigh lamb looked great and tasted great too. I've again the meat was well cooked and the combination of pickle, chips, and salad and the lemony taste that tickles your taste buds. Yum! We also took vegetarian Makbeh (veritable stew) for our vegetarian family member. The verdict was that the dish was good, but the tomato base of the stew was too strong and overpowered the whole dish, which made it taste more like passata. Maybe something needs to change. An additional cold item was the Okra dish, which we all enjoyed. I never thought that I could enjoy a cold okra dish. And here we are. We liked the Lebanese bread, which we tried with almost all dishes. The trick is to fill the meat, pickles, chips and sauce on the bread to eat it as a roll. Loved it! Balila is great, and we'll definitely return."
