Berenjak London Reviews
We were craving Persian food and found this restaurant on
We were craving Persian food and found this restaurant on Yelp with great reviews. When we arrived, the host told us there was a 1.5-hour wait but offered us the standing area to order food, which we accepted. We ordered kashke bademjoon, liver, chic
Amazing food and staff
The staff, the food, and the service were absolutely amazing. Before going, I read almost all of the negative comments and I can confidently say that none of them were true. Unfortunately, many of those negative reviews seemed to come from fellow Ira

Can't describe what my taste buds felt when I tried the truffle chicken dip and the unique hummus. To those who don't like this hummus, sorry it's not your heavily processed Trader Joe's hummus. The chicken kebab was tender, juicy
Overhyped
Honestly, we were underwhelmed. This place has been hyped up online so we went with high expectations. Firstly, the seating arrangements have been cynically designed to cram as many customers in as possible. We were sat at the bar (we knew this in
Amazing Restaurant!
Having been to the New York location they had a high bar to reach and they exceeded it! I went yesterday, the service and cuisine was fantastic. I had the Taftoon with the Kask e Bademjoon and Mast o Musir dips, then the Jujeh Kabab Tond with house s
Incredible food, buzzy atmousphere
The food here is sooo amazing! It felt truly authentic and the service was stellar. The hummus speaks for itself, and then we had lots of other apps that were bursting with flavour. Nice buzzy atmousphere, we sat at the bar and there’s an open kitc

Stunning meal! Went in a party of 8 and so we got "the feast". It was a feast, indeed. Came out in 2 big sharing courses. First we had bread and dips and the flavors here were outstanding. It was very hard to stop myself from eating to burs
Fantastic Persian food done very well
We visited for lunch with a booking which is a must - this location is really popular. Having Persian family members, we can honestly say this is excellent Persian food. The flavours are fantastic. Get the Olvieh and koobideh! We want to go back

My friends absolutely love Berenjak, so of course I had to see why they rave so much about it. Definitely make a reservation, because you will not have much luck if you are trying to walk in. Unfortunately, it seems like all the reservations are for
Nothing memorable
I recently visited this restaurant in Soho and was extremely disappointed. At the entrance, a lady with short black hair was shockingly impolite and dismissive. Rather than welcoming guests, she spent her time chatting and laughing with a group of me
Rating: 4.
5 Stars The quality of the food here absolutely blew me away. We visited the Borough location for lunch on a Tuesday afternoon. The space is quite small but beautifully decorated with ornate Persian art and traditional pieces, creating an authentic
Wonderful authentic experience
We loved our visit. Great atmosphere, friendly staff and the most delicious food. You need to book well in advance but it’s worth it!
Unfriendly service
Arrogant unfriendly door staff. Disorganised. Bad experience from start to finish. Food average there are much better options in London with authentic Persian flavours. I will not be going back for sure.

I had dinner at this restaurant after a long wait for reservation Rice was served cold , not so clean environment. I would not go there again
Perfection
Staff were so friendly and professional. We didn’t have a reservation but were seated quickly. Our waitress gave us perfect advice regarding quantities and sizes of meals. Probably one of the best places we’ve eaten in London. Exceptional.
A must!
I greatly enjoyed my lunch. The restaurant had been recommended by several friends. You absolutely must have a reservation. I ordered off the pre-set lunch menu, which had everything I had planned to try, with the exception of a dessert (which
Amazing🤩🤩
We ate here while spending the weekend in London and wow, it was amazing. The food, flavours, ambience were 10/10. It’s very rich and indulgent so not somewhere I would frequently visit but was a great experience and worth the hype. Pricey but goo

Phenomenal would be an understatement.
Make sure you have a reservation or you willl wait a few hours for seating. Quality excellent but you also pay for it!
Removing the Persian bias.
.. this is perhaps a 10/10. If you're reading this, you're probably in the planning stages of a trip out to London. If you haven't already, try to get a reservation ASAP. We were able to get a same-day reservation for lunch after ref
One of the best meals I've had.
I went solo, so was seated quickly as a walk in around lunchtime on a weekday. Sat at the counter and really enjoyed watching the chefs do their thing. The food was as delicious as it looked. I did the set lunch menu and it was a great deal. The taf

if you like to wait three hours despite many open tables in the back just to receive kebab that is drenched in butter, and rice that is swimming in butter, this is the place for you! unlike other Iranian restaurants, the portion is not large. The res

Best Persian food anywhere! Persian food elevated! Divine! They deserve every accolade they've earned. Small space with only a few tables, so please make your reservation way in advance and be careful when selecting which location for your res
Rude hostess
Over hyped, the food and service were okay, but 2nd hostess (the guy by the resturant’s entrance) who attended to us was extremely rude, he thought we didn’t have a booking!! To be fair the first guy greeted us well, but that rude hostess ruined
Great service from Nizar
Loved the food, the chicken was so succulent and soft. Wonderful service from Nizar, he is an asset to the company. Very talkative, friendly and made sure we had everything we needed several times. He went over and above what we expected and just wa
Ok not great
Food is well overpriced for what it is. There are much better Iranian restaurants for half the price however it seems Berenjak have marketed themselves well. The Koobideh traditionally should be two skewers but only one. The barreh kabab is the price
Nizar is the best
I recently dined at Berenjak Soho and had a fantastic experience. The food was delicious, and the atmosphere was lovely. Nizar, our server, was exceptional. He was attentive, friendly, and made great recommendations. We were also impressed by his eff
Berenjak Soho review
The food was great and excellent. Service at the table was also greet. But have to say this-The greeter who seated us at 12 (first people when they opened) was definitely unprofessional and racist. We were visiting from US and made reservations on
Overhyped. Wouldn’t bother.
I’ll start by saying that the service from the staff is impeccable. They were helpful, friendly and efficient. We sat at the counter and enjoyed watching the chefs, however we were jostled and elbowed several times as the restaurant is so small. It
Second time in a year, really good food but nothing special
Second time in a year, really good food but nothing special for a Michelin star restaurant. Had to book a few weeks before, hasn't changed much except for the new dessert that has soft serve included. They could do better with the kitchen staff weari
Food is amazing.
We went with course menus and it was delicious. Service also is great. Highly recommend to book in advance since the place is always busy. Location next to the market makes it very trendy and cool. For sure next trip we visit this restaurant again.
Dirty and rundown restaurant with seats and tables so small you’d think you’re sitting in a playhouse
This place is not living up to its expectations or any expectations for that matter. The restaurant is absolutely falling apart, with an interior older than the average grandma - and not in a good way. I’m surprised they are up and running, as it l
The best in town!
The best Persian restaurant in town! Only downside is of how difficult it can be to get a reservation - but guess that says it all.
My favorite dinner while traveling in London (2023).
We opted for the tasting menu and chose the chicken and lamb kababs and enjoyed all of the different mezze options immensely. Trying the tasting menu let us explore options we might not have otherwise ordered. A meal I'll wish I could relive
I'm Persian and I have to say not good Taste food!!!!!(soooooo far from original perisan food)
I'm Persian(Iranian) and I live in Paris(France), I got Koobideh Kabab and the taste was completely different from original Koobideh!, Absolutely is not original Koobideh and I didn't like the taste, the taste is completly different and so far from o
Great experience lovely meal
We ate here last night and it was great. Our daughters bought us a voucher for Christmas which included a special menu which enabled us to try several different starters and a chicken kebab. The hummus and aubergine dip was my favourite and accompani
Incredible food, atmosphere and service
Incredible service, knowledgeable staff. Food was an absolute 10/10 - the best flavours and the hummus is absolute insane and the atmosphere was great too. A must visit!
Excellent
Absolutely delighted with my dining experience at Berenjak in Soho! The Lebanese cuisine was exquisite, boasting a perfect blend of flavors and authentic dishes. The ambiance was cozy, and the service was top-notch. A must-visit for anyone craving th
Welcoming
Staff were attentive but relaxed which made for a nice atmosphere. Food was good. Maybe the Michelin rating swayed us but it was a good experience not exceptional. Worth a visit but do read the reviews.
Busy, Dark, Fine Kebab
I got a solo table for an hour last Friday. Always interesting how solos are treated. I specifically asked for the counter but got a table instead. It was dark, real dark inside. I had to turn my phone light on to see the menu, eventually I asked the
Best kababs in London
I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 because the place is very uncomfortable and staff are not very professional. Its not a traditional Persian restaurant but the excel in some of their dishes. The grilled kababs are by far the best in London especially th
Overhyped
I read good things about this place and struggled to get a booking so turned up just after 13:00 on a weekday to be told they were fully booked all day and they'd take my number and text me if anything came up. An hour later I returned and although s
Worth every penny!
A wonderful experience - one of my most memorable meals in London. The restaurant is dark and quite noisy but I thought that added to the ambience. The service was excellent. I'd thoroughly recommend the restaurant and hope to return in the future.
Absolutely amazing! I showed up at 5:15 on a Monday night
Absolutely amazing! I showed up at 5:15 on a Monday night and lined up. They opened at 5:30 and they sat folks who had reservations and then I got a seat at the bar which was a great experience seeing all the action. I was immediately packed but orga
I could eat here daily and I'd never get bored.
The hummus!!! I mean all of it's just so so good. The staff are always beyond accommodating with dietary requirements. My husband & I live in New York City but are from England & Egypt and every time we come back to London this is our first s
I really wanted to like this place.
Pricing was kind of ridiculous for the quality. The kebab was not tender & very elastic, and the service was almost nonexistent. They forgot to bring out a few things that we ordered and ended up having to cancel them. Didn't understand the hype

One of my new favorite spots.
The fresh bread was absolutely incredible, as were the various sides. If I were to go back, I would try and get a variety of sides instead of mains, because everything seemed so unique and wonderful. The juicy chicken, the eggplant spread, the crispy
Connect with users posting reservations for Berenjak London
AppointmentTrader is a community-driven platform where users can exchange their reservations or leverage their personal relationships with Berenjak London. Buyers can make informed decisions using automated seller ratings, which reflect past transactions and reliability.
Each posting on AppointmentTrader shows you which user submitted it and along with that provides a trackrecord of that user which indicates how much experience
the user has and how many percent of their transactions resulted in them issuing a refund.
If there is no user posting that fits your schedule, you can bid on your preferred time.
Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to Berenjak London at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the Berenjak London page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* EternalAnt36, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's $200 bid.
* EternalAnt36 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to EternalAnt36 for any questions Peter may have as EternalAnt36 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* EternalAnt36 now uses their connections at Berenjak London to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If EternalAnt36 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, EternalAnt36 receives the $200 reward which is credited to EternalAnt36's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at Berenjak London!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
