Shahs Halal Food Soho

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
One of the best halal food places I’ve tried in Central London near the BT Tower! The taste is unmatched, portions are generous, and the prices are very reasonable. The staff are friendly and supportive, making the whole experience even better. They also have a convenient self-checkout system for ordering food, which is quick and easy. Highly recommend this spot for anyone looking for top-quality halal food in London.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ (Okay, but could be better)**

The food was decent, but the experience didn’t quite live up to expectations. The service was slow—we waited in a long queue just to get our portion, and the cramped seating made it hard to enjoy the meal comfortably. The chicken had an oddly artificial texture, which was disappointing for the price.

If you’re looking for a quick, reliable bite in the area, you might find better value elsewhere. Hopefully, they can improve on speed and quality control!

Chicken on salad was delicious, and an amazing value. White sauce tasted kinda like ranch. Green sauce is minty. Red sauce has a nice kick.

£10.5 with extra protein.

Absolutely amazing experience at Shah’s Halal Food in Soho. The food was fresh, packed with flavor, and perfectly cooked — I had the [insert dish, e.g. chicken over rice], and it was honestly one of the best halal meals I’ve had in London.

The service was 10/10 — super friendly, fast, and welcoming. You can tell the team really cares about their food and their customers.

Highly recommend if you’re in Soho and craving something delicious, filling, and halal. Will definitely be coming back!

"Had a great experience at Shah Halal's! The food taste was superb, served in a super neat and clean environment. Loved the vibes and the location is perfect too!"

Spacious restaurant set over 2 floors serving Cantonese and Pekinese cuisine with dim sum lunches.

Golden Dragon (Chinatown)

Golden Dragon is everything you want from a Chinatown restaurant. Fast, attentive service, great food, and a buzzing atmosphere. From the moment we walked in, the table we had booked was ready for us straight away, and despite the restaurant being fast-paced and busy, we never once felt rushed. There were so many staff on hand that we never had to wait for anything—credit to the team for running such a slick operation.

We ordered the Oriental Set Menu, and the restaurant was more than happy to accommodate a swap from beef to chicken for one of our party, which meant everyone could enjoy the full menu together. A thoughtful touch that really stood out, and one they were within their right to not need to accommodate.

The meal began with a comforting chicken and corn soup, before the array of mains arrived. The standout for me was the Sweet and Sour Pork which was perfectly balanced, crispy, and packed with flavour. My friends raved about the Stir-Fried Diced Chicken with Cashew Nuts and the Spicy Szechuan Prawns, both cooked to perfection. The duck dish was also excellent, rich and tender, and rounded off the meal beautifully.

Overall, Golden Dragon delivered a brilliant Chinatown dining experience being efficient yet friendly service, excellent food across the board, and a lively atmosphere. Highly recommended, and I’ll definitely be returning.

A faultless dining experience today...came here on a Thursday as part of a trip. We regularly dine in Chinatown but so far hadn't experienced this restaurant. Filled with lots of Chinese (always a good sign..no offence meant) . We ordered a large array of dim sum and 2 a la carte dishes. Food arrived super quick and was really good one of my favourite char su pork I have ever eaten. Staff were friendly attentive and helpful. Definitely recommend this venue for both seasoned and novice dim sum eaters.

Golden Dragon in Chinatown is a lively spot known for its authentic Cantonese and dim sum offerings. The average main course is reasonably priced, usually around £12–£18, making it good value for both casual meals and special outings. Drinks are varied, with a mix of traditional teas, soft drinks, and a decent selection of wines and beers to pair with your meal. The atmosphere is bustling, especially at peak times, and the staff keep things running smoothly despite the crowds.

The food stands out for its freshness, with dishes arriving hot and well-prepared, especially the seafood and dumplings which are customer favourites. Golden Dragon also caters for accessibility, offering disabled facilities that make it easier for all guests to enjoy their dining experience.

I love my Chinese foods , and Golden Dragon didnt disappoint ..

Stopped in after the theater for something to eat. Large menu offering a great variety of food was good, not great. Was clear the staff wanted to go home even though there was still quite a crowd inside eating.

Authentic Cantonese cuisine in quite large portions. We had fish & tofu stew and shredded duck vermicelli soup, both were tasty and comforting
Edit: we came back for dim sum, and everything was wonderful. The egg pudding is a must try!

Smart modern Korean restaurant with large menu of classic kimchi cabbage and banchan side dishes.

Arang Restaurant

We recently visited this restaurant and had such an incredible experience from start to finish! The atmosphere was warm, lively, and welcoming, perfect for enjoying a hearty Korean meal. We also had an amazing server SJ, who served the three of us and was attentive the whole time.

Recommendation Dishes:
Jajangmyeon with beef, Kimchi pancakes, tteokbokki with cheese, beef bimbibap.

For any Muslims coming here, there's plenty of halal dishes and you can substitute the pork with alternatives like beef, seafood or chicken.

The food was absolutely delicious. The tteokbokki had just the right amount of spice and sweetness, with chewy rice cakes that were cooked perfectly. The kimchi pancake was crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, packed with flavour and easily one of the best we’ve tried. The jajangmyeon with beef was rich and savoury, with a delicious flavour that paired so well with the noodles. The sides from the kitchen were also fantastic, everything from the kimchi to the pickled radish and other small dishes tasted fresh, well-seasoned, and perfectly complemented the mains. You can really tell that care and attention go into every dish.

We also tried the miso soup, which had a gentle umami flavour and a great palate cleanser between dishes. Personally, I found it a little mild for my taste, but my friends really enjoyed it, describing it as wonderfully soothing and comforting. It's like the kind of warm soup you’d crave when you’re feeling under the weather.

We ordered a few other dishes too, including the japchae, bibimbap, and mandu. The japchae had a good texture, the glass noodles were slightly bouncy but it wasn’t as flavourful as the other dishes we tried, so it felt a little dry and underwhelming in comparison. The bibimbap was enjoyable and nicely presented, though since we ordered quite a variety, it was naturally a bit overshadowed by the stronger flavours of the tteokbokki and jajangmyeon. The mandu was good, though it wasn’t particularly standout compared to the other dishes on the table.

But what truly made the evening special was the outstanding service from SJ. He was friendly, professional, and incredibly attentive throughout our meal. He checked in at just the right moments, made thoughtful recommendations, and went out of his way to make sure we were comfortable and happy. His positive energy and genuine hospitality really stood out and made our dining experience unforgettable.

We’ll definitely be coming back, not only for the amazing food but also because SJ made us feel so welcome. Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for great Korean food and top-tier service!

This restaurant was such a discovery! We ate so well today. The portions are big, the food is super tasty and the girl working was very nice. They play Kpop and the prices are totally ok for the center of London (actually cheaper than many other restaurants we saw).

Food was so good! I had Bulgogi set menu with my friend and could try so many different things. After the meal, they even served fruit! I definitely want to go again :)

Arang has a proper authentic Korean feel, and it’s super easy to get to, just a few minutes’ walk from Piccadilly. The menu’s got loads of choice and the service was really attentive. We went for the BBQ, which came with all the sides (even though that’s not totally clear on the menu), plus a few other dishes. Everything was really tasty.

We had a lovely meal here and were especially impressed by the warm service. The food was cleanly presented and well-prepared across the board.

We ordered samgyeopsal (grilled pork belly), and while the meat was fresh and nicely grilled, do note that you need to order lettuce (sangchu) and green onion salad (pa-jeori) separately if you want the full Korean BBQ experience.

The seolleongtang (ox bone soup) came with plenty of noodles and egg, offering a comforting, mild flavor. The haemul-pajeon (seafood pancake) was crisp and flavorful, packed with seafood. The dolsot-bibimbap (stone pot bibimbap) was deliciously well-balanced, with a perfect mix of textures and flavors.

One particularly touching gesture was when the staff kindly offered roasted seaweed and fruit for the children — a warm and thoughtful touch that made us feel truly welcome.

Highly recommended for anyone craving authentic Korean food with exceptional hospitality.

Not your average curry house. This Central London institution elevates indian cuisine with techniques that would make grandmothers proud and food critics weep. With ratings this high, it's no wonder locals keep coming...

Kricket Soho

Absolutely love this busy but tasty Indian in soho.  Don’t miss out on their rotating list of curries, mains, starters and sides.  Each bite was better than the one before.  Had the venison curry which was absolutely remarkable. I want to go back immediately.

It was a lovely dinner, we had a great time. The mix of flavours and textures was incredible. It wasn't our first time eating Indian food, but these dishes were delicious.

Husband and I had a wonderful experience here sitting at the Chef’s Counter. The server assisted with the number of dishes to ensure we didn’t over order. Had amazing , krispy,  deliciously seasoned Kerlan Fried Chicken and a tender, flavorful Venison Lal Maas. We added cucumber Raita and it was the perfect bite to accompany the venison. Leek and potato Paratha was the best bread to eat with the venison and raita. Wonderful meal!

Kricket Soho is a must-visit for anyone craving authentic and delicious Indian food. The restaurant takes a small, tapas-style approach, which is fantastic for sharing and trying a variety of dishes. The menu changes frequently, so there's always something new to discover, though a few of their main dishes remain as constants.
While some of the newer dishes may not always hit the mark—I didn't find the recent Pani Puri as good as the previous rasam version—the highlights here are truly exceptional. The Keralan fried chicken, chicken gassi, and especially the tadka dal are all incredible. The tadka dal, in particular, tastes so close to what you'd find in a typical Indian home that it feels like a genuine tribute to the cuisine. Hats off to the chef!

Family of four (2 adults and 2 kids). We stopped here for linner  and were seated right away. I was worried that with the social media buzz it would be crowded.

I’ve never heard of a thali before and am so happy to have tried it here. There was so much food that we were able to share and still feel so full. Everything was so well seasoned and the spice level was perfect. The staff were welcoming and really attentive.

Lavish, colourful frescoes adorn this vibrant restaurant for classic Turkish and Mediterranean fare.

Antalya

Antalya Restaurant was a fantastic find in the heart of London. We sat outdoors on a warm summer evening, and the setting was perfect, relaxed and inviting. The food was full of authentic Turkish flavour, beautifully presented, and made with fresh ingredients. From the grilled meats to the baklava, everything was delicious. The staff were friendly and attentive, making the whole experience even better. Highly recommended for anyone looking for great Turkish food, especially in the summer. Thank you again for the amazing food and service! We will definitely come back again ☺️🙏

Stumbled above this restaurant on the way from the train station to our hotel and what a wonderful find it was!! Lunch was beyond a bargain. The chicken wrap was delicious and as for the Rosè… stunning. Our waiter Fatih was so friendly and welcoming. Such a gorgeous start to our holiday in London.

Tried the lunch deal and opted for the mezze meal option, definitely not worth almost £20 for the quantity given. Food was average, I was expecting a lot more considering the high reviews. The other dish in the picture is the lamb iskander, which was also alright, again not worth nearly £25. I'd probably skip this and get better value for money + better tasting food elsewhere.

My husband and I dined at Antalya last month when we visited London for two days. It was near the hotel we were staying in so we decided to try it. What a culinary delight! We were greeted immediately and made to feel welcome. Our phenomenal server was Fatih. He was attentive, friendly and a joy to talk with! He made our experience extra special!!

The food was delicious and fresh. I love lamb and had the lamb lokkum the first time we visited. I also had the Antalya heal, which was amazing!!

We went back for the second time on our last night. Much to our delight, we got Fatih again!! It was like seeing an old friend!

If we are ever in London again, we will for sure dine at Antalya!! It was a very special place for us and we have fond memories of the food and Fatih!

I would highly, highly recommend this classy and authentic Turkish restaurant. A bonus is that it is near the British museum!!

I’ve been there several times. The food is delicious, the staff is welcoming and kind. When I go to London, this is the first restaurant I choose. Service is fast and menu has variety of options.

Korean fusion, unique cocktails, art & curated tunes in a hopping locale with a popular brunch.

Korean Dinner Party

Gorgeous dining experience! 🫶🏽 I came here with 7 friends to celebrate a birthday and we had the loveliest time. The food was excellent and the atmosphere and service were lovely. We were very lucky to be served by Marina, who went above and beyond to take care of our table, and even took some Polaroids of us to take home as a birthday present. So wholesome 🥰 would definitely recommend to a friend!

Note that this review is specifically for the Taco Tuesday bottomless tacos. I thought the quality of the meats was perfectly fine - the beef was tender and fatty, and the chicken was not dry and had a satisfying crunch. However for a Korean fusion restaurant, these tacos severely lacked any Korean influence. The only element that tasted remotely Korean was the small pot of ssamjang sauce served alongside the tacos. They could’ve done much more with the flavouring to really emphasise that this was Korean fusion cuisine.

I did like the slaw though - it was crunchy, slightly bitter, and complemented the tacos well. On the other hand, we were perplexed by the aubergine and mushroom filling. The menu listed fried cauliflower, which would’ve made a bit more sense, since a crunchy fried filling would’ve been a nice contrast to the soft flour taco. This filling however, felt completely out of place and didn’t belong in a taco. It was too soft and saucy, the flavours leaned more Mediterranean than Korean, and it didn’t hold up well in a soft flour tortilla - it would’ve been better served over rice. If not fried cauliflower, fried enoki mushrooms would’ve worked well too?

Service was good, but nothing exceptional. It wasn’t really an issue to ask for more rounds after finishing the tray.

I think with some adjustments, this deal could be worth going for.

Had a lovely lunch - the stone pot veggie and bibimbap special were good! The peppers with cheese as well but the other options felt a bit more exciting and flavorful

Stopped by for dinner before going to the theatre, it's on the third floor of kingly court but there are lifts, we got there at 5pm on a Saturday and got sat straight away but it did get a little busy from 6pm onwards. There was a great choice on the menu, everything was so tasty. The fried chicken was so crispy and delicious. I also really loved the cheesey peppers, it wasn't too spicy and still had loads of flavour, and the wedge salad was (surprisingly) my favourite dish!! Id recommend getting 4-5 dishes between 2, we also got 2 corn dogs and I think that was too much. Reasonable prices for the portion and quality. The staff were also really friendly and helpful, they made a mistake with one of our dishes but we're very quick to rectify it, id definitely recommend a visit here!

Overall, we found the food to be just ok, nothing special. Our experience was tainted by the unexpected service charge.

We did the tasting menu that had a lot of food but most of it tasted mediocre. The best thing was the kimchi stone pot stew and the slaw that comes with the tacos. Everything else - fried chicken, bacon mochi, cheese stuffed peppers, al pastor chicken, ice cream - all tasted pretty mediocre. The amount of mayo on fried chicken overwhelms anything else; the al pastor chicken tastes only of sweetness and it was served cold, not hot; the ice cream was super boring. Flavors were not on point, every dish felt like it was missing something. I wanted to like this restaurant in the name of Korean fusion food but unfortunately it missed the mark completely.

We paid at the end and after paying realized they had added a 12.5% service charge for our table of 2 persons. This was not mentioned when seated or ordering. So, on top of the mediocre food, this unexpected charge soured our experience. I doubt we’ll return.

Spice levels that'll make your taste buds dance and your nose run. This Central London gem serves up indian that's been perfected over generations. With ratings this high, it's no wonder locals keep coming back for mo...

Maharaja of India

⭐ 5

Absolutely incredible experience! This Indian restaurant exceeded all my expectations. The butter chicken,Shashlik Roshila,Garlic Chilly Chicken was rich and flavorful, and the garlic naan was perfectly crisp and soft at the same time.Tandoori Chicken was nicely cooked and juicy.Everything tasted fresh and was beautifully presented.

The staff were warm, welcoming, and happy to make recommendations (which were spot-on). The service was quick but never rushed. The ambiance is cozy and inviting, with traditional decor that adds to the overall experience.

There are tons of vegetarian options too, which is a big plus. Pricing is very reasonable for the quality you get.

Definitely one of the best Indian meals I’ve had—will be back soon and recommending it to everyone.

I visited this restaurant after seeing many great reviews, but my experience didn’t really match the expectations. I arrived at 1:30 PM and the place was nearly empty, yet it took around 35 minutes for our food to arrive, even though we only ordered two curries.

Many reviews mentioned friendly service, but we were served by a different staff member who was just average, not particularly warm or attentive. The butter chicken was a little bland and average, and the other curry tasted just average or even a lil below. Quite overpriced as well considering the portion.

Nayem was an excellent host!! (More than a waiter) he was a teacher of indian cuisine!! Im traveling from Mexico and people told me i MUST try indian food in london, specifically CHICKEN BIRYANI. Nayem even gave me a special yoghurt sauce for my biryani! Gave me a great indian beer!! MAHA RAJA is your best option! A few steps from Trafalgar Square!!

Excellent food! We got served right away, and received our food incredibly fast. Most of us ordered butter chicken with garlic naan, and it was delicious as is visible with the picture below☺️. We had Nayem as our waiter, and were extremely pleased with the serviced we received. His professionalism along with his humour made our visit extra special and memorable!!! Would definitely visit again😊😊

Nayem (our server) was amazing from start to finish and really made our overall experience that much better! He was so polite and helpful with our questions and really made us feel welcome! The food was phenomenal - I totally recommend the chicken 95 and the butter chicken and chicken dansak were out of this world! This is a must when you visit London!

Compact restaurant serving traditional Korean cuisine & BBQ specialties in relaxed surrounds.

YORI Piccadilly Circus Korean BBQ

Wonderful place for Korean food in London ! We didn’t try the BBQ but standards plates, all delightful ! The tteokbokki and the pajeon were so good, as well as the soy garlic chicken bites. We tried different bibimbap and the tofu and sea food stew, so tasty and not too spicy, which was great for us ! Plates are really affordable in my opinion. And the service is great ! I highly recommend this place !

It was very easy to make reservation on Google Maps. We were craving for some Korean barbecue and we ordered the beef selection.

Some of the smaller pieces come with very nice marble however the quantity wasn’t that much there is a piece of bigger steak, and some other that are marinated.

When we first put the meat on the grill, the grill wasn’t completely heated up so the steak wasn’t the best and no staff told us when the grill  would be ready.

On top of that we ordered a Seaford pancake, mushroom fried glass noodle and a soup with rice.

The rice wine in a bowl is a must to order. It is very delicious and with low alcohol percentage.

We had a very nice time there drinking rice wine and eating. Three of us and we had a full tummy.

It was £120 for 3, not bad for London price, especially we had alcohol.

Took my daughter here for a celebration meal We went for the set barbecue (chicken) we also got beef, 2 rices and some kimchi glass of coke and a big water total £82 lovely atmosphere, great customer service.My only downfall is if 2 people are going the tables aren't big enough apart from that I lovely experience

Popped in for a quick pre-theatre meal without a reservation, and the staff couldn’t have been more accommodating - managed to seat us promptly and made it all feel easy. The service throughout was excellent.

We ordered the bibimbap and doenjang jjigae - both comforting, well-seasoned, and full of flavour. The drinks deserve a mention too: the strawberry and lychee Yori highballs were refreshing and not overly sweet.

Great spot if you’re in the area! Efficient, friendly, and reliably good food. Would definitely come back.

We came here because it was kid friendly. They had a lovely kids meal. It was rice with vegetables and egg on top, and served with a side of dumplings. Our chicken and beef dishes were delicious. We even ordered an extra bowl of kimchi because it was so good. Highly recommend, we will be back.

From Beijing's finest to London's tables - authentic Chinese cuisine with modern flair. Located in the heart of London, this is where London's food scene comes alive.

Imperial Treasure Fine Chinese Cuisine

Dined at this restaurant twice. First time was lunch dim sum which was amazing. Would easily say it's the best dim sum in London and that inspired me to go back for dinner, which was very good but not amazing.  Definitely recommend going there for dim sum.  Excellent service, something you would expect in a Michelin star restaurant. The atmosphere feels like a very luxury fine dining restaurant, very relaxed and calm but very attentive.
I've also had dim sum in their Guangzhou restaurant (Tianhui) and I would say the dim sum is better at London restaurant.

This is the best fine dining Chinese restaurant I've ever experienced. We tried the Peking duck, which we'd reserved in advance, accompanied by Burgundy red wine. The dumplings that came with it were also very good. I can't wait to come back.

We had the Imperial Treasure tasting menu and the food was exceptional! All of the dishes were outstanding! Our top three were the peking duck, black truffle lobster and the steak with garlic chips!
Our waiter Stephen was soo attentive and gave us some good tips on how to enhance our soup! We had such a wonderful time and we will be coming back

One of the best Chinese dining experiences in London! The signature Snow Mountain BBQ Pork Buns were absolutely outstanding – perfectly crispy on the outside and soft inside, with rich, flavorful char siu. The Seafood Tofu Soup was also excellent, full of fresh ingredients and very comforting.
Special thanks to our waiter Johnny, who was incredibly attentive and friendly. His professional recommendations made the meal even more enjoyable. Definitely a place I’d love to revisit and highly recommend to anyone looking for authentic, high-quality Chinese cuisine!

The dining experience at Imperial Treasure Fine Chinese Cuisine was amazing! Authentic Cantonese dishes, fresh ingredients, and refined presentation. The staff were attentive and polite. A must-try restaurant in London for anyone who loves high-quality Chinese food!
