Al-dar 1 - City of London,Westminster

I was looking forward to going to Al-Dar after many years since I was here. I used to be a regular diner here with my friends when we visited Edgware Road. Unfortunately the restaurant has lost its charm. The food is average at best and the level of cleanliness questionable with grubby tables and menus. The service was very poor and we struggled to get the attention of the waiter. Pricing is quite expensive for the quality of food served. We won’t be returning.

Excellent food and service! Been here few times friends and business associates. The grill platter is just fantastic, along with all the food we’ve had there on the last few occasions. I rarely write reviews but the food and especially the service by Magdi hope i spelt that correctly) deserves to commended and mentioned. The waiter Magdi who served us the last few times was just simply excellent. We were greeted very politely with a big smile and attention to detail by Magdi was just excellent. He made sure we were happy with everything, recommended dishes we hadn’t tried before, explained the ingredients. An extremely polite man, knows his job and does it excellently. I will definitely be visiting more often in the future. Daniel

Very friendly staff , parking directly outside. We had a selection of starters which were all delicious and plentiful. The main course was lamb shish with rice and salad, also delicious. We had lemonade with mint so refreshing. We paid £65.00 for the entire meal which we thought was amazing value. Highly recommended and we will be back

I am a frequent patron of this restaurant and absolutely adore it. The food is delightful and reasonably priced, and the staff are always friendly. I truly believe it is one of the best Lebanese restaurants I have ever experienced, and it is worth every penny. I have visited about 4 times and have never been disappointed. The platter is definitely worth trying, especially if you are in a group. Today, my friend and I ordered the platter for two, and it was more than enough for both of us, as well as an extra person.

Went for a shisha with friends and has been charged 48£ for 4 pots of tea, be aware tea made out of gold. Never again, total rip off.
