Unforgettable experience in Edgware

“Not local to me so took a chance. First class service and cut all at a very reasonable price. If I'm in the area again will definitely visit again.”

“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.”

“Great pub, great staff and incredibly friendly locals!!!!!! Came here for a Friday night pint and will be back soon I think!”

“Awesome experience as usual Service was good and food was even better! I look forward to the continued growth and seeing more slam burgers open up. Very good to know that all their stores are halaal. The new store is so well kitted out. The branding is great, the store is very clean and they even have a little kids play area. I would highly recommend and will go back.”

“The value for money is just perfect! Food is absolutely delicious and staff is super friendly and welcoming! I wish the tables were a bit wider but it's still getting 5/5 as the food and staff are brilliant!”

“It was a great hotel. I don't know why people complaining about this hotel. It was really easy to check in and your free to go and comeback with a password. The rooms are small but perfect. Only thing of service. When people stay longer cann you make the rooms clean after maybe 3 days or something. It's a small tip!! Maybe see you next time.”

“I regularly book treatments with Kads, and she's incredible. Her facials always extract all the dirt and leave my face glowing and her massage works out all my knots leaving me feeling relaxed with all the tension removed. I highly recommend Kads Beauty for anyone needing beauty treatments.”

“Rich is a natural at what he does, entertaining both the children AND the adults in the room with his sense of humour at everyones level! Everyone was engaged in the performance and tricks and I would very highly recommend him for any kids party!”

“Very helpful staff , created the perfect package for our family, at the most reasonable price available. I was able to get help at every stage of my journey at any time . I will be recommending this travel agency to all my friends and family”

“I have used several car services and UK London Private Hire Ltd is by far the best. The drivers were on time, friendly and responsive. They communicated every step of the way and even tracked our flight delay. Highly recommended!”

“I have to say, I enjoyed every single bite of the pizza in Pizza Di Loro. I had a pizza of the house, with a couple of "ichnuso" beers. Considering the quality, the price is reasonable. Ideal for those who want a romantic night out. There was also plenty of room for bigger groups.”

“Everyone is so nice and helpful, I got my nails done and I’m so happy for the way they turned out. I asked about the other services as well and they happily told me and showed me around! I love my nails, thank you Oana! Beautiful salon!”

“I usually eat at Patiala Xpress, however wanted to try some food from yaki ya, boy o boy was i amazed and blown away with the taste and the freshness of the food. I was speachless and the perfection of the food. Amazing katsu curry, bento boxes were out of this world Everyone should go and tey the food here Staff is amazing, very friendly and the experience was more than wow.”

“Super service... friendly staff and most delicious food & savoury”

“Exceptional food and customer service, the best Lebanese food I've had on Edgeware Road, and I've tried almost all of them. Give them a try, it was incredible”

“Best in the area reasonable prices for shisha amazing staff! Must try!!”

“Five stars for sure. Great place. Just had dinner there: starters/mix kebab/burger/chicken shish -- the food is amazing. So tasty. Lovely staff also. If you are in the area I recommend you drop in for a bite. You won't be disappointed!”

“Really delicious Kenyan food. Grilled lamp chops, grilled chicken wings and the fried mogo (aka cassava in sauce) were particularly good.”

“Recently refurbished and looks great! Shisha is very good and smokes for a while. Variety of flavours. Staff are extremely friendly & even remembered us from years ago! Great service. Karak tea is top notch and they put a candle underneath to keep it warm. Small heaters available on those very cold nights which is always a plus!! Great vibe & insta pic ready!!”

“My family have been coming to this place for 20-odd years. Every single time, the food is fantastic. The flavours are brilliant, and the variety of choice is something we love. It is genuinely hard to go wrong with anything off this menu, and they are even willing to make vegetarian version of starters/mains that otherwise have meat in them upon request (personal favourite is the mushroom chaat puri they make instead of the chicken version).”

“Lovely Bar with a really nice atmosphere. Good selection of drinks, a diverse and welcoming crowd. Edit- still the best”

“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!”

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

“Food is tasty and well presented. I wonder why there is no kids' pizza menu option, as the place is very popular with families with children!”

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

“Really authentic, delicious food. The hot coals make a real difference to the flavour (I ordered the lamb kofte) and the seasonings are really good. Fairly priced, and you get free tahini, hummus and tzatziki”

“The 8 tourist individuals supplier (Mercedes Vito) was really large. We had lots of luggage together with hand baggage nevertheless this was all carried away completely leaving all of us with lots of leg space in the cars and truck. Our trip to Gatwick was smooth as well as an unwinded and an excellent begin to our holiday. Containers of water were offered in the auto for everyone. Overall a terrific experience, however. I would say a truly reliable taxi service. Lovely employees, as well as vehicle drivers. Would certainly suggest to anybody Thanks again Beeline Airport Transfers.”

“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!”

“I’m a regular customer and food is always good! Their bread is just the best! It’s also so cheap compared to other similar restaurants.”
