I was hugely looking forward to visiting this restaurant because as a Libyan living in England we aren’t treated to many Libyan restaurants outside of London. We travelled as a party of 10(6 kids and 4 adults) for two hours as the food was touted as being legendary. When we arrived, aside from my sister, the rest of us were treated coldly and were mostly ignored by the servers. The seating area is a little small too and our party did end up occupying the major part of the end of the restaurant. The food was actually very tasty- the Libyan dishes mostly didn’t disappoint. We ordered Rishda, fasoolia, Imbatin, Libyan soup (shorba) which all came with salad on the side. I did ask for yogurt dip but this request was ignored. The Rishda was very flavourful and the meat was cooked to perfection but the Imbatin which is a mincemeat filled potato fried with an egg wash was bland and fell apart as soon as I picked it up. The soup was very hearty too and reminded me strongly of Libya. All in all, if you’re looking for lovely Libyan food this is the place to go. If you’re looking for warm welcomes and service with a smile, avoid like the plague. The lack of hospitality was very off putting and whilst the food was tasty it’s unlikely I’ll be travelling almost 100 miles in a rush again to be treated with the ignorance that we were...
Read moreEvery time I order whether in store or over the phone for delivery they always get my order wrong I don’t understand how difficult it could be to get a customer order wrong.

Read moreThis is by far the best Libyan cuisine there is. So many places try to perfect it but these guys have made a perfect example of authentic traditional Libyan food. I am here everyday twice a day because it is so healthy and so tasty. Today I had the Libyan couscous and soup ( Sharba) which are only two of the many dishes they serve here. If you want to eat out but think this is unhealthy then you are wrong because it's healthier than home food. They also make you dishes that aren't on the menu if you give them a couple hours heads up. Thank you so much for having such an amazing restaurant in my...
