Al Basha Restaurant

This restaurant is lovely. Egyptian and middle-eastern in general, it has so many dishes to chose from: I tried two and they were delicious. The service is very very good and the decorations in Egyptian style are impressive. There is TV with arabic music that creates a very nice background. You can end your meal with any kind of tea and sweets . Recommended

One of the best authentic Egyptian food I have ever eaten in London so far! Very nice people, service and great atmosphere! One of the deserts I wanted was only available with honey and when the waiter (Mohammed) knew that I wanted it with Sugar only, he said he will get it for us!! He was very nice and made our day! Of course we will come back and this will not be the last time! Thanks again!

Came here for dinner with some friends on a Tuesday night. We had made a reservation prior and it was a good shout as the restaurant got filled up after 7pm. One of my friends came quite late so the rest of us decided to order the mixed mezze platter to start while waiting for the last one to come. The platter came with hummus, falafels, cheese sambousek, meat kibble, vine leaves and tabbouleh. For the price of £15.95, it was a good portion for the 3 of us to share and the food quality was there. Although it's an Egyptian place, it's definitely more of a fusion menu they have since this platter is Lebanese and they do state that in their menu. Just to say don't expect this place to sell only Egyptian food as they also have Indian dishes on their menu. For mains, I ordered the kofta skewers for myself. It's a massive portion with 3 skewers of minced lamb which was nicely marinated and chargrilled and came with lots of flavours. The rice itself was also cooked with some spices which went really well with the meat. My friends enjoyed their food as well. But overall, I wouldn't say the food quality was outstanding. It's good for what it's worth but not exceptional that makes me want to come back. Service was good, friendly and attentive waiters. They played some Egyptian music on a massive TV in the background which was frankly quite loud and so it made it hard for us to chat and talk comfortably. This is where it lost a star for the atmosphere.

This was a brilliant spot for lunch that we picked randomly but ended up a huge success. ❤️❤️ The food was absolutely amazing. Tbh, it's a little bit overpriced but the taste is worth it 💯. I loooove their stuffed falafel and the pita bread they offer is so fresh and warm. They also served us more bread for no extra cost. We also tried their kofta which was 120/10. It's the original taste that I have been missing for a loooong time. The fries were tasty as well with some sort of spices on them that took the taste to a whole new world. OK, let's now talk about the chicken burger 🍔! I am not a huge fan of burgers in first place, but I has to finish this till the last bite. It is so rare to find a tasty chicken burger where the meat is not that tough, but thisbone was grilled and still juicy. They also serve tea with Na3na3. That was about the food, which is the main reason why we would come back. But the atmosphere and the staff were very nice and friendly, especially the middle aged gentleman who was very attentive and serving us with passion that have not seen in a while in dine in restaurants. There bathroom was clean and enough room. They have an awesome music taste. Guys, just keep it up and I will always come back when in london.

The food was really nice. Had the foul mudamas and hawashy al basha for starters. Nicely spiced and flavoursome. For mains had the Koshary, which was very good. The spicy sauce just elevated it all. The mint lemonade was refreshing. Mohammed Issa our server was so nice and provided excellent service. Would recommend.

Best Arabic food we have ever tasted in the UK and a meal we will never forget. Highly recommend this place, you will not regret it. Every meal we ordered was so tasty and delicious that we continued eating until we completely filled our tummies. Service by all staff was very impressive and we were so looked after by Mohamed. Lovely ambience and music and we felt so comfortable and well nourished. Thank you and we will no doubt return again when back in London.
