Sarchnar Kebab in City of London, Westminster

The hospitality, the generous portions of complimentary soup, bread and dips is definitely something that you don't see in many restaurants. To top it all the lip-smacking large Mixed Grill that just makes the whole experience heavenly, delicious and delightful. Highly recommend this place, but be prepared to wait as they are quite popular and busy.

Visiting from Canada. Great authentic food.

Nice place with good oriental cuisine but be careful you can only pay in cash and the nearest collection point is a good ten minutes walk away.

Here’s a corrected version of your text: They serve a daal soup upon arrival, accompanied by sides like hummus, salad, and two other Middle Eastern appetizers, along with freshly baked flatbread, which is a warm and welcoming gesture. The food quality is good, though it may not be ideal for those sensitive to oily dishes. I particularly enjoy the Iranian and Iraqi kebabs. At the end of the meal, you’re offered a cup of black tea. Overall, I recommend this place if you’re not concerned about dining in a non-posh restaurant—it’s definitely worth a try. The prices are very reasonable, but note that payment is only accepted in cash or via bank transfer.

Nice food, friendly staff. Often there is a wait on weekends

Incredibly delicious food. Prices are very reasonable according to the food and its size. All the staff are fast and helpful. You should definitely try it. There is just an incredible queue. You have to wait 15-20 minutes every time.

Something fantastic, legendary, and solid. I highly recommend it to you. Terrific and quick treatment. The cleanliness of the place is excellent. Thank you to them, and their prices are very reasonable and excellent❤️❤️

This was one of the few Iraqi restaurants I’ve tried, and I have to say the food was genuinely tasty. The flavors were rich, and you could tell the dishes were made with care. The atmosphere was lovely, with a cozy vibe that made the experience even more enjoyable. That said, while I appreciated the experience, I don’t think I’ll be coming back. It’s not necessarily a criticism of the restaurant itself; it just didn’t leave that lasting impression that would make me crave a second visit. If you’re curious about Iraqi cuisine, it’s worth checking out at least once for the flavors and warm hospitality. It’s just not a spot I see myself returning to anytime soon.

The Kurdish Kebab does absolutely not taste kurdish kebab, l mean it’s mix with garlic 🧄 never be back

Delicious Iraqi Arabic food, in all honesty, at a reasonable price, and the staff’s service is pleasant and they serve you. Thank you 🙏❤️

Excellent restaurant. Clean surroundings. Friendly staff. ❤️

Great food, quick and attentive service and cost-benefit ratio is amazing. Nowhere in Edgware Rd or Central London can you eat so much for a cheap price. By ordering a main dish - be it alone or as a group - you'll get a soup, fresh bread, salad and some dips. Would definitely recommend.

One of the best restaurants in London. I really liked it. They are very generous with the appetizers before eating and the tea after eating. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for the clean and delicious taste😍👌🏻

Amazing food big portions and good price and speedy service Best iraqi restaurant best kabab ever so juicy and flavorful All mezze on the table was complimentary You only have to order main dish and drink Only cash payment

Super value and good food. The weekend dolma is large is enough for two people to share. Unlimited fresh bread with soup, mezze & tea all complimentary. Friendly welcoming service by all. Very popular for good reason.

Food isn't as good as it used to be and the service is TERRIBLE. We had waiters ignore us, rush us 15minutes after recieving our food and we were given the bill whilst still eating. If this is all due to new management it's a huge shame. Will not be returning.

In my humble opinion, Iraqi, Kurdish, and Iranian restaurants deservedly topped the rest of the Arab restaurants in the British capital, London. My experience at Sarganar Restaurant was because I noticed it was always crowded. The meal wins and deserves it. Whatever the order is, it includes lentil soup, eggplant salad, yogurt salad, hummus, and fresh bread. My order was a meat kebab and the taste was very delicious. The staff were very nice and cooperative, and I really enjoyed the experience. The prices are excellent and I recommend visiting it 👌

Very disrespectful and poor service. While my mum and aunt were eating, waiters began to pick up the food and told us customers were waiting, No warning. Very rude staff. Won’t be going back.

Their food is delicious, the service is good, and the hospitality is wonderful

Iraqi Kurdish restaurant Delicious food It has many types of Azaqi food Offers free appetizers There are indoor and outdoor sessions Offers free tea

The restaurant is excellent and the visit will definitely be repeated. The food, service, hospitality and everything was special. I advise you to visit it 👍

Excellent restaurant. Clean surroundings. Friendly staff. Complimentary soup, bread, hummus, and other side dishes. Followed by exceptionally good portions of the mains and very reasonably priced. Highly recommended. Everything in the picture came to £34! Superb value.

Kurdistani restaurant is a restaurant of generosity and high quality It is located at the end of Alajward Road, whoever reaches it, God willing, the restaurant is full of tables and the number of customers is eye-catching. This indicates that there is a secret to this crowding. May God make things easy and we got a place for 5 people. One of the female employees helped us with a smile and great kindness As soon as you sit down, soups are brought out to you according to the number of attendees, hummus, yogurt with cucumber, ashara, and hot bread 🔥. Orders are masgouf, grilled meats, and ghouzi neck, accompanied by okra and moussaka. Quantities are per plate. Any order is sufficient for two. Then gourmet Kurdistani tea The food, no mistake, is delicious 😋 and more luxurious than the other, and the price is simple compared to restaurants in London, especially the Arab world, and they do not have a system for the price of service and extras, and you do not know where they came from. Without exaggeration, this restaurant wins the best restaurant with authentic Arabic food, warm hospitality, and reasonable prices. Note: They prefer to pay in cash, so keep cash with you. I have been visiting London constantly over the years and have eaten in many restaurants, most of which I have visited This restaurant has been certified as the best place the all-star stalwarts have tried

The food is delicious, the service is excellent, and the prices are reasonable Good health and wellness to you in advance

Their food is delicious, and the kibbeh is delicious at times, and they have many kinds of hospitality, and after eating, they give you a special tea afterward.

Ezzatolah and Nabila were so professional and treated me so well. They speak Farsi as well. :)

"Sarchnar Restaurant is a wonderful spot for authentic Kurdish cuisine! The food is flavorful and beautifully presented, with generous portions and a variety of traditional dishes to choose from. The lamb and rice dishes are especially delicious, and the bread is always fresh. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, with a lovely décor that adds to the cultural experience. The staff is friendly and attentive, making you feel right at home. If you’re looking for a place with genuine Kurdish flavors and a cozy vibe, Sarchnar is a fantastic choice!"

Avoid this place , the kebab is so tasteless and the rice is bland , no taste , rude staff

Their food is delicious, their prices are reasonable and they are respectful

I’ve been curious about this place for so long as there is always a crowd whenever I see it. And I finally took up the courage and stepped into this surprisingly good restaurant! The portion of food is absolutely shocking to me as I’ve got used to receiving only a small portion almost anywhere in this city… The appetizers are already very filling for me, the bread smells so good, the salad and veggie cold dishes are rather refreshing! The rice of the main dish is one of the best types of rice I’ve ever had! Staff are very friendly to me!

Amazing service very generous, and the food is delicious not pricey at all. The stuff is more than welcoming thank you.

I don't have words to describe how amazing this place is. The food is just super delicious. You definitely should visit and try for yourself.

I recently visited Sarchnar Restaurant when I was in London. On arrival, you are given complementary bread with dhaal, hummus, and obergeine. We ordered the mixed grill for 2. The assortment of meats was perfectly seasoned and grilled to perfection, offering a delicious smoky flavour. Each bite was juicy and tender, showcasing the restaurant's commitment to quality. The service was another highlight of our visit. The staff was friendly and accommodating, making us feel welcome despite the bustling atmosphere. It’s clear that they manage the high volume of customers with skill and attentiveness. Do keep in mind that Sarchnar is always busy, so be prepared for a lively environment. Also, they only accept cash, which is worth noting before you go. Overall, if you're looking for tasty grilled meats and a warm atmosphere, Sarchnar Restaurant is a great choice!

Authentic, flavorful Iraqi cuisine right in the heart of Edgware Road. Portions are generous. The service is friendly and attentive. The restaurant can get very busy.

Worse than any restaurant I ever been in my life. Worst experience ever, service is horrible the staff are unbelievably rude. No smile, never heard about kindness or customer servicing. Food is very poor quality and not authentic at all. The kebab tastes like grilled on fire not coal. I asked for tap water the answer was no. I asked for sharing dishes with a friend the answer with no. They have a minimum charge which is new to me in London. I asked to pay with card that’s also no and had to go find a cash machine They could have told us or put a sign that no card payment is accepted.

I’ve been dining in this restaurant for years and I felt today I have to give it a justice , the food is delicious and fresh always, you get free complementary 3 kind of small starters and a soup and bread to start with for free , the price of the main is reasonable the bread is free ,the place is small with an army of staff that makes the service very quick all the staff are nice , you get a free tea as well when u finish your food , only downside is the restaurant not a big restaurant always crowded and sometimes it takes like half a hour to get table especially in the summer . This restaurant is my favourite restaurant nothing beat it .

We are such a full meal and the price was worth it! We were surprised by how many side dishes they gave

Food is fresh, tasty and full of flavour especially the complimentary lentil soup. The staff are attentive and the bread never stops!

Food always comes quick and as you can probably tell I’m a fan of the lamb

Great for a minute! Your food was really great. Most amazing foods and tastes, perfect!

You won’t get this type of value for money anywhere else in central London. Free appetisers/soup as well as free tea. The portions were huge and hearty. Definitely recommend for anyone wanting a filling authentic meal, will definitely be back (£19pp including a starter + main)

Absolutely worth visiting this place. The food was so delicious and massive portions with a complementary starters. Prices are amazing.

Excellent restaurant, always busy

An excellent restaurant, delicious food, reasonable prices, and they have many varieties

Delicious food, do have the curry, its different to the usual indian flavour. Super staff, friendly, grreat tips on food choices and great with kids.

Forces one main per person, even if your total meal amount exceeds the minimum cost per person.

It was a rather good experience for Latifov I recommend it For good treatment

Amazing Restaurant in everything their hospitality it is unbelievable all starters comes on the table before ordering!! Service it is top class as they have too many waiting staff. With nice environment we had the best fish ever, my mum had lovely kuzi neck ever ever, I recommend this place to anyone likes nice clean place with very special customer services and best taste.

We were on a weekend break to London and someone highly recommended this restaurant to us. I am so glad we took the recommendation.. From the service and the food and the atmosphere, it was excellent. We ordered 2 meals, veg biryani and lamb. We received naan bread, salad and dips, and soup all free of charge.. this place is so reasonably priced and you get so much food. I would highly recommend this place and this comes from someone who highly recommended to us.

One of my best place in London, still continues the best service,best food and the lovely free starters , homus , aubergine salad ,jajik,rocka salad ,pickle and lentil soup.In the end you will have special Iraqi tea😀 I will go back definitely .

Me and my friend drove over an hour to get here we ordered 2 portions of kebabs with briyani they bought us 1 soup for 2 people we asked for more bread they brought 1 more I wasn’t comfortable I ate my kebab without bread I’ll never go back there again

Too many staff standing on your head ???? I do not know what they are doing , they just keep staring at you when you eating ??just stay away and if someone wants you he will ask u to come

Mr. Wise is very helpful for helping us to choose the right dishes. The food here is extremely delicious and generous amount. Definitely will visit again

Kadijah was very kind and helpful and the food was amazing. I will definitely recommend this restaurant to family and friends and all the staff were polite

Great service and wonderful food at an excellent price. Highly recommended. Please note they only accept cash.

Izatullah served me there this evening , kuzzzzy meat ( my favourite meal) like always very delicious but staff was really professional and helpful, will come again soon ✨✨✨✨✨

Amazing restaurant! I had a seabass fish and it was delicious, cooked perfectly, and kuzi lamb neck with the rice was tasty too and full of flavor. Great service and nice atmosphere, Reasonable prices but keep in mind they only accept cash. Highly recommend!

The best service i have ever seen in London specifically (Mariam) she has amazing ability to run all the place

It is a great place,great food and very good customers service. Amazing started with free appetisers as usual ( aubergine salad,homus ,jajike, green salad and Iraqi pickles) of course with my favourite lentil soup. We were 4 people we had best kuzi neck ever,, very special Dolma flavoured same as home made . I always recommend this place highly for best quality food, best service with a very reasonable price. Recommend dishes Kuzi neck , Dolma and aubergine salad .

A very elegant restaurant. As soon as you sit down, there are various types of appetizers: hummus, jajik, eggplant salad, green salad, and Iraqi tarshi with sweet lentil soup. Iraqi kebab is the best kebab and grilled fish in the original Iraqi way. And quzi is meat that melts in the throat and stews, beans and okra. The service is excellent and wonderful, and the atmosphere is wonderful, with Iraqi folklore songs and Iraqi tea. I recommend it. Visit the restaurant and the prices are very reasonable

The best ‘Middle Eastern’ food you will have in London. I usually got it the restaurant opposite, however as I saw this was busier it packed my interest to try some place new. I wasn’t disappointed. The food was so fresh and huge amounts of it. Incredible value for money. The fresh bread along with a lot of small complementary sides added to the excitement of flavours. For 3 people who had to take a doggy bag came to £50

My favourite restaurant in all London. Everything is delicious 😋 especially the fish, quzi and kofta

The food it’s delicious many times I have been there quality is very good 👍 and same test every time I highly recommend excellent

Is the most delicious food I ever had a mixture of rice kebabs, vegetables grilled and cooked the freshly bread baked at the premises? It’s amazing salads humus lentil soup nice cup tea Iraq tea which is very famous baklava atmosphere Friend staff reasonable prices good location I recommended to family individuals, for events special occasions extra quality of food well done

A very elegant and clean restaurant

What a interesting place , would definitely recommend going there as you sit down some starters are placed down and then the food just keeps coming and the food was very tasty had the lamb shank would highly recommend , be hungry and you will be very happy

Unfortunately, the prices have increased

Great food, friendly staff, we felt very well treated

Sarchnar Restaurant has been consistently great since they opened. The food is always delicious, with tons of options to choose from. The staff is very polite, and the prices are really fair. Best of all, the food tastes amazing every time. Definitely worth a visit!

Excellent Middle Eastern restaurant, the dishes are very generous and very good value for money.

Amazing food and service, very generous portions and the taste is better, my favourite restaurant in London without a doubt

Delicious food, huge portions, very reasonably piced.

"Thank you vey much! The best service i could have asked for! I had dinner with the family last week. The food was absolutely delicious such varied textures and flavours. Free appetisers, tea and sweet. Massive portions full of meat, chicken and fish. I recommend for anyone who's looking for a lovely London dinner, great for the family to enjoy. Service was incredible such lovely staff, great experience!"

Very good fiod good service its very beautiful to dine in very beautiful

Really delicious dishes, even better than they look in the photos! We ordered the mixed meat platter for 2-3 people and also the cold starters platter. We noticed that you get dips and salad with the meat platter anyway and were beginning to think that the cold platter was unnecessary but we were fortunately wrong. The extra salads and dips are a must for the meats and the bread is just perfection. The service is also very good, they were quite friendly and accommodating. Be mindful this place is always busy and they only accept CASH!!

An artist restaurant after all, and brother Abdullah did not fall short and they deserve all the best

A restaurant worth visiting, wonderful in everything, and I thank my brother Abdullah, who is very respectful and tasteful

We went yesterday with my family, starting with free appetizers ending with free tea. "Lovely food, brilliant customer service and a cosy atmosphere". Recommended dishes : Lentil soup,Iraqi kebab, grilled fish, mixed grill ,and quzi.

Nice Traditional food Amazing flavours for such an amazing price The free starters ( Hummus and aubergines salads) it is amazing The services is top quality services.

Seriously love this place! The food is so authentic with such amazing flavours for such an amazing price! I definitely recommend this place to everyone, the service was fantastic and the food is even better!

The food is amazing one of the best lamb shanks I’ve had cooked well and full of flavour

A wonderful restaurant in every way

Best we have ever had. Starting with free appetisers, ending with free Tea. Everything made fresh to order: The service is always friendly, very helpful and amazingly efficient. Very highly recommend. Amazing value and massive portions. Lovely experience and will be coming back.

Amazing food and very good prices

As usual the food and service was awesome.

Great place. Amazing food. Good service. Must try

It is a really amazing restaurant with great taste. The hospitality was very warm and welcoming by the employees.

Very full restaurant and I can see why. We had to wait for 10 minutes and it was worth it. The food is delicious. You get (unlimited) fresh bread, lentil soup, and dips complimentary. The platters were delicious and plenty for a group of 8. The price is reasonable and well worth a visit. Fast service! Little wait time to get food.

Very good Iraqi food in Edgware Road London especially the mutton Kabab…

Food here is great. I loved everything I had and could help but want what I saw on other tables too. The free soup was delicious, the flat breads are fresh.

Great restaurant, great food, great service. Me and 3 of my friends dined in and ordered a big plate of mixed grills with lamb chops. My only complaint is the lack of card payment and frequent crowding of the place.

Food - they offer some complimentary starters, soup, salad and breads. The taste is good. Bread is so filling you end up with no space for mains! Tea - they offer a free small cup of tea at the end of a meal. Service - food is served really quick but it’s CASH ONLY! This is unacceptable in this day and age. They also refuse to provide a receipt despite being asked. Water - they will not serve any tap water - which is completely against the law. I asked for a cup of water to take a pill and was flat out refused! Atmosphere - busy restaurant, very noisy, you need to keep your voice up to be heard by fellow diners. Cleanliness- place is clean and tidy. Floor was slightly sticky but this is due to customer footfall. I probably would not come back.

Food and value are excellent, but unfortunately, they forgot all the starters. I realized this after getting home, which is a 1-hour drive.

Friendly and welcoming place where the food comes before the menu. Char grilled kebabs and kefte, really tender and hot with great flavor and texture. Everything fresh and on point. I felt the love!

A unique restaurant in every way In the complimentary hospitality of soup and appetizers And delicious food And great service And reasonable prices Everything about this restaurant is special Thank you to the restaurant management, its staff and the chef

Kebabs are juicy and flavourful. We enjoyed our food, quite bzy but they managed nicely.
