I have been twice with my family and the restaurant is ideal if you have children as there's a warm atmosphere and a suitable selection of food options for them. Always love the aubergine fatoush!

Ishbilia Restaurant Address: 8-9 William Street, London SW1X 9HL If you’re craving authentic Lebanese and Mediterranean cuisine, Ishbilia Restaurant is an absolute gem. My family and I visited this restaurant for dinner recently, and it exceeded our expectations in every way. From the moment we walked in, the warm and cozy atmosphere, paired with the elegant décor, made us feel right at home. The food is simply outstanding—every dish on the menu is fresh, flavorful, and impeccably prepared. Whether it’s the mezze, grilled meats, or traditional dishes, you can tell they use high-quality ingredients and authentic recipes that truly showcase the essence of Lebanese cuisine. The service was another highlight of our evening. The staff are incredibly friendly, attentive, and welcoming, making the dining experience even more enjoyable. Their genuine hospitality adds a personal touch that’s hard to find elsewhere. Ishbilia has become a favorite for my brothers, relatives, and friends alike, and it’s easy to see why. It’s the kind of place you want to revisit time and time again. If you’re in London and looking for a restaurant that offers a perfect blend of delicious food, excellent service, and a cozy atmosphere, I wholeheartedly recommend Ishbilia. It’s a 10/10 dining experience, and I can’t wait to go back. Do yourself a favor and visit Ishbilia—you won’t be disappointed!

We a family of four when we enter restaurant one of the waiter he asked us whether we are having booking we said no then he told us to wait we waited then within 4 minutes he gave us table for 4 anyway 1 girl came and took our order and we ordered 2 mixed grilled beer drinks 1 more item with bread. But then manager came to our table and he gave another menu and he told us that each of us have to order 45 pounds each he wants to make sure he gets 180 pounds per table. I don’t mind paying him 200 pounds but he acts stupid with us we’re hungry for food but we didn’t beg for free. I’m not a big person but I feel for my kids cause they have choose your restaurant please ask your manager to obey for small business or big business manager should be good and provide great service. So please attach your menu saying that 45 pounds each person so that customer will think twice to enter your restaurant thanks

They gave fresh vegetables and olives as soon as we sat at the table. Then we had Fattoush, houmus, zaatar manakish and batata Harra, all of which we enjoyed. Then I had the lamb chops for the mains which came with bread and grilled vegetables. Very good food and probably the best Arabic food I’ve had in London, look forward to visiting again. Only 4 stars as food is pricey but not like you visit every day

Although the place has big windows it's got very poor lighting so it's hard to read the menu! The waitress didn't seem all that interested in my needs and I didn't feel particularly welcome! They also had these little side plates with these green shoots that sting so much when you eat them you have to stop eating them! In general it was grey and dismal experience!

The worst restaurant that can serve grape leaves, very bad. This is a picture of grape leaves. It is clear that the paper is of very poor quality, and the filling is unfortunately worse, and the grain is very large?? Unfortunately, some restaurants distort the image of Lebanese food?? I wonder if you can remove grape leaves from the menu, it is better than offering a failed product, and the fattoush is fine

I was anxious to try Ishbilia and it didn't disappoint. I started with Hummous. It was so fresh and good. I then had their Fatoush salad. It may be the best Fatoush salad I have ever had. It was so fresh and perfectly cut into the right sizes. The pomegranate vinaigrette is perfect. Not too light or too much on the salad. Then I had their Bamia. Hearty and healthy lamb okra stew. Very fresh and flavorful. Overall, the food is great. Zack assisted and recommended the different dishes. He was very knowledgeable and professional. Very friendly and engaging. While sitting at the outside dining area, I noticed how the staff was very professional and did a great job of welcoming the guests, with or without a reservation. I recommend making a reservation so you can get seated at the time you desire. I look forward to coming back.
