A family owned Syrian cuisine. Absolute gem with friendly service, fresh delicious food and very keen prices and they give you a fresh juice when you order a take away. Sadly no alcohol allowed on premise, but food makes up for it. Have a fresh mint tea instead - delicious.

If you want to venture to the neighbouring Chiswick, La Trompette is a must. Opened in 2001 and has been showered with accolades since the outset; a reflection of the care, dedication and energy invested in the restaurant by the whole team. It serves some of the best food in London but without the formality or prices associated with the capital’s top end establishments.
