Fine dining restaurants london in Edgware

“Mmmm shashlik! Tender, spicy but not hot spicy......make your mouth water spicy. Charcoal chicken wings. Not the skinny flappy bit but,the shoulder and bicep. A tiny sprinkle of fresh lemon juice drizzled into the munchable, tender chicken. The starter dip things.... FANTASTIC Turkish naan. Light and fluffy with a good outside crunch, dipped into fresh proper humus. A garlicy yoghurt dip thing. Grilled onion quarters in a pomegranate sauce. A fresh and tangy salad with tomatoes, cos lettuce, cucumber, onion. Often Turkish salads that I've had have just been sprinkled with vinegar which, can make them slightly bland. Not so Charcoal's salad dressing. Imagine a charcoaled meat selection served on a bed of rice with a chips border and a sort of thin, round flatbread covering to keep the aroma and heat contained. Lamb shish in very small,succulent cubes on wooden skewers. The charcoal chicken wings, shashlik, thin strips of doner.thick, tender lamb chunks. Add a glass of Turkish red wine (or three). Maybe some Turkish tea with something sweet for those of us who like the slightest perspiration invoked by overeating. Yes, they do takeaway. Yes they have all sorts of fizzy drinks. But, they are not your usual Turkish takeaway. This place is well worth a sit-down for an hour or so and serious, professional eating. Opposite Lidl so maybe, if you do some shopping in Lidl - you could park there. Personally, I think it's worth taking the Northern line and walking from Edgware statation. A couple of outside tables for those that need a quick cigarette or an afternoon cup of coffee and a baklava. I was introduced by a friend who is Turkish and himself a retired restaurateur. In the 20 plus years I have known him - he has always steered me to places that are good quality and not overpriced. This isn't a place with fancy carpets and bow tie waiters. It's like a mum n dad place who care and concentrate on flavour.”

“Highly recommended this branch of Farsi Restaunrant, Staff nice, food was delicious what I was expecting, reasonable price. Definitely visit them again.”

“This is more like a smart cafe than a formal restaurant with a family friendly ambience. When we were here, there were plenty of people with children around (Saturday 530pm). We got a max platter, which was always going to be more food than we needed for two adults and two children but would be perfect for four adults. The meats were excellent and we went for rice instead of chips which was good as an extra. Definitely very good value for money and the quality of the food is as good as many of the more upmarket Turkish restaurants in nearby areas.”

“We found ourselves in Edgeware an not sure where to go for a meal. So many restraunts which all look good! Then we found Izgara a Turkish restaurant! The place is just beautiful inside and the staff are so attentive. The food is beautifully prepared and is well presented Service was quick, and it's one of the best meals that we have had out this year! If we lived in London this would be our go to place! However next time we are in London we will definitely be back!”

“This place never fails! Top service. Authentic Food. The vibe is just Great here. Perfect for a date night! Definitely would come back:)”

“Fabulous restaurant, the staff are so attentive and welcoming, and the food and drinks are to die for. We had G&T and Cosmopolitan, gnocchi and lamb cutlets and the best tiramisu we've ever had. Would thoroughly recommend and we've already booked to go back tonight.”

“Beautiful food!!! The best starters! And mains! I will not be going anywhere else..the food is sooo fresh, the chicken wings, lamb chops, tandoori chicken wings, makhani daal, maji maji! Honestly fresh food ! When you break open the wing, the white bone is exposed with crystal quite glazing chicken staring right back up at you!! It's a must go!!!!”

“A very vibrant place. I was there on a Saturday evening. They offered me a bigger table as it was quite crowded, with the agreement that I will leave in an hour or so, agreeable given the time I had visited. Even through the crowd the people kept checking in if everything was okay and if I needed anything. Chicken 65 (Saucy) was really good. Although the Chicken Tikka was a bit different from my expectations, but it was good. Personally for me it did not suit. Good music, excellent staff and very good service. Will visit again soon to try out their other dishes. Thank you Flavours.”

“The food is nice. We enjoyed the fish tikka. And the chicken wings. It would be nice to see some soya vegan options. It's becoming a more popular requirement. Waiters were a little slow, not really attitive and it wasn't that busy.”

“I had a fantastic stay at Hilton London Metropole!! The room was clean and comfy and the breakfast was amazing. We also had cocktails at the bar last night and they were great!! Staff was really nice at all times and really helpful with everything. I am looking forward to come back!”

“It was the first time I ordered from this place. All I can say the food was amazing, very nice and tasty. Omg a dream! My friend Jean who unfortunately passed away a few months ago due to Covid always used to order from here and she always praised their food I will definitely order again and again. Thank you so much!”

“Best lovely restaurant for locals Somali community I love the place. It's really amazing place to be chilling around burnt oak. Very nice 2 pool tables”

“I’ve came here so many times with my family and every time, the service and food is outstanding. We are always made to feel so welcome and it’s so lovely when staff remember who you are, as my Grandad is in a wheelchair and requires extra assistance. Little things like this really mean a lot. And nothing is ever an issue and the food is always delicious and so fresh. Thank you so much for another lovely meal! We’ll be back soon!”

“Best oyster omelet I've had since Shilin Night Market in Taipei. Beef Bao was also excellent.”

“So far the most accurate authentic Romanian taste I had in UK. The restaurant looks very neat and welcoming and the staff was very friendly. The food was also served very quickly. Whenever I'm in London again I'll make the detour.”

“Never knew such a gem existed in Queensbury. I cannot handle spicy food, but their food had so much flavour, I did not even notice the spice. The staff are friendly and the service is pretty good. I would definitely would recommend this place.”

“It was an wonderful experience. The food is delicious and waitress are kind and polite. Good price on the menu as well. 100% I'll recommend this little restaurant for someone that would like to enjoy a delicious dinner or a small party with family as I did. Thank you!”

“My local Italian restaurant, the food is always spot on, can't fault it, always tasty and nice portions. Can walk in, but I suggest at busier times it better to book. Never been let down here, the good is consistently good. I always dine in, so can't comment on the takeaway. Plenty of free parking at the Sainsbury just behind, a few minutes walk. Awesome”

“This place is my favorite choice for BBQ platter. It isnt smokey and this will not make you smell. The quality of the meat was superb esp the beef. Japchae was good but not exceptionally good. I tasted better ones than this. Seafood bibimbap was very tasty so as the beef. Not quite sure with the chicken. The desserts are nice. It was worth a try at least once. Over-all, the side presentation was lovely, it has good variety and flavor. It is a bit pricey though but real good! Oh, drinks and costumer service were exceptional!”

“Very pleasant dining experience. Ambiance was good. Not noisy at all. Staff are well presented, attentive but not too pushy. Food was delicious and plentyful. Prices are reasonable. All in all a very pleasant evening out. Highly recommended.”

“Wow!! Struggled to work out what we wanted for dinner take out tonight as fridge I'd empty ahead for weekly supermarket delivery tomorrow and my partner said I would kebab style meal so I said mentioned a place in Edgware but I couldn't get the spelling right for the delivery app and remember you have recently refurbished and opened again so I said how about here and Wow, the chicken/lamb shish kebabs with rice and a little bit of salad was more than enough. Salad wasn't finished and unfortunately we can't touch our 2 pizza sized portions of bread. Definitely order again either take out or dine in. Delivery was on time too. Fab work, Mill Hill Kitchen.”

“Delicious Food, Excellent Customer service, Clean. Chicken Burger is Amazing! Would definitely recommend it!”

“Amazing restaurant with kenyan specialities like Mishkaki, kachumbari, ugali, sukuma wiki and a lot more! You can also buy halua, achari, mabuyu and some other non food items from kenya. Food was delicious as was the passion juice. The desert surprise was absolutely amazing! All in all, a great place and we will be back!”

“My friend was raving about this place. Apparently there is a group on social media rating various eateries. This was one place to check out based on the group. I don't use social media so was curious. We dined during a Saturday evening. No booking but was seated out back , which looks like a big extension which is impressive in many ways. All built around a large oak-tree. Impressive. Front of house was extremely polite and welcoming. The member of staff was super polite and helpful with our menu selections and orders for beverages. Adding help and assistance along the way. I opted for a mocktail which was delicious and my dining guest had a milkshake which looked very nice. We chose starters which including chicken tikka and masala chips. Both were full of flavour and spice. In hindsight we should have shared our mains and naan to follow as the portion sizes for the mains were huge! My main was good. Full of chicken to the brim! I can't remember was my friend had but this looked and smelt amazing. My garlic naan was nice. This is my go to along with chicken tikka masala. We even took sight of chef with a yellow hat, looked the part. All things considered with price, service and quality you need to check this place out. Very recommended. Even the host looks like a magician in his red coat, a class act.”

“Food that tastes real ! I love exploring new cuisines and came across this gem. The management was kind enough to make me a portion consisting a variety of items. I really loved everything. The chicken with cream of mushroom was so tender, the pork & sausage strew had so much texture to it, the cabbage and meat rolls were so fresh and soft. I was loving the food so much that the management made me try small portions of the soups mainly, sour chicken soup, tripe soup, beef soup and vegetable soup. They were all yummy and the ingredients tasted so fresh. I was even made to try the cheese doughnut with cranberry sauce , which also was amazing. I will be visiting often.”

“Very nice atmosphere and delicious food. Service was very good and I would be going there again.”
