Ayam Zaman in Hammersmith and Fulham

I invited a group of family all was good and kind customer service, I recommend it:)

I went last night with my friends for the Ramadan buffet. Price is £25, reasonable price but I expected a lot more. The buffet has limited selection and you can tell that there were some measures in place to maximise profit. There were only 2 main course options which were very basic and they were not really authentic Syrian dishes. The starters were good but again for £25 I expect more selection especially mains. There are many other buffets even syrian restaurants that provide much more options. We thought the buffet would provide some sort of dessert or tea however that was not an option and you had to pay additional for the tea. This is something I would expect to be included as complimentary when paying £25. I’d recommend going there for their menu food but not the buffet.

I used to dine at this restaurant regularly a few years ago, as the food was consistently excellent. However, I recently ordered a takeaway, and unfortunately, the experience was disappointing. The portions were small, the quality was subpar, and the flavors were lacking. I ordered the chicken touk, which was bland and seemed to be made with low-quality meat that was simply boiled with no seasoning. Additionally, the potatoes were soggy and appeared to be old and reheated. Given the significant price increase and the decline in quality, I will not be ordering from here again. I gave a second change and ordered again and it was the same expensive very disappointed.

Great middle east food! Went there for iftar during ramadan and they served special buffet menu for £25. Worth it

Really authentic and juicy Syrian food, one of the best Middle Eastern restaurants I’ve tried in London. It has dishes you wouldn’t get at normal ME restaurants. It’s quite well-frequented by Syrians which is always a good sign of authentic food. Plenty of seating space. I recommend the kebab with yoghurt dish.

If I can gibe zero or minus I will terrible customer service, we booked a day in advance for their buffet, they called me midday to confirm the booking, baring in mind I travelled along way, when I got to the restaurant they gave the table away the manager was rude didn't try to resolve the situation and he blamed me for arriving late 10 minutes.

I recently dined at Ayam Zaman and was thoroughly impressed by their all-you-can-eat breakfast buffet, which offers an extensive selection of dishes catering to various tastes. The Maqluba was particularly delightful, showcasing rich flavours and a satisfying blend of ingredients. To complement the meal, I opted for the lemon and mint juice, which was exceptionally refreshing and balanced. The staff were generally attentive and friendly; however, there was some confusion when it came to splitting the bill. To avoid any issues, it’s advisable to keep track of your orders if you plan to divide the payment. Despite this minor hiccup, the overall experience was positive. The restaurant’s atmosphere is warm and inviting, making it a great spot for both casual dining and special occasions. I look forward to returning and exploring more of their diverse menu offerings.

We ordered the Shawerma for takeaway, all 5 were cold, not even toasted, was so tiny too, barely had any filling Got the fries too, was soggy and no salt on it Didn’t give any tissues and dips either Definitely not worth the money I went back though, the person was really polite, went to toast them and gave us sauce, tissues and ketchup But wouldn’t recommend!

Tried this spot recently and was just ok - nothing great to rave about

An absolutely wonderful experience! My family and I drove up from Brighton, and it was well worth the trip. The food was exquisite—every dish was beautifully prepared and bursting with flavor. The service was just as impressive, with the manager, Mahmoud, going above and beyond to make us feel welcome. A truly special place that I highly recommend. We’ll definitely be back!

Nice maqluba rice from Ayam Zaman. The portion is generous.

Brilliant food, incredible service - some of the best Middle Eastern we’ve had in London.

Always very welcoming and really well cooked dishes. Highly recommend if you’re anywhere near Westfield too. Better than most of the food options there!

Very good surprise especially the Kebbe

You wont be disappointed I had the best Bamia (Okra) in middle-eastern restaurant. Always a pleasure to come back here. Kind and polite staff.

I recently ordered a takeaway from Ayam Zaman and unfortunately had a very disappointing experience. I ordered kibbeh and whilst I was looking forward to my meal, I noticed the meat was off, the food was rancid and not fit for human consumption. Which made me question the hygiene practices in the restaurant that they can send people food that is off. This left me feeling concerned about the food quality and safety. I reached out to the restaurant to report the issue but they seemed unconcerned and offered to make new kibbeh but told us we would need to collect it. I was extremely disappointed at this response as they dismissed the fact that they were serving meat that was off and could cause food poisoning. I wanted to share my experience as I do not want anyone else to have the same experience that I have had.

Lovely restaurant, the food is good but not exceptionnal. The staff is globaly nice except the east european girl who is rude. I like the algerian girl always smiling and i miss Fares my best waitress. Last time i ordered samboussek and he brought me rikakat saying and insisting that this is samboussek beleiving that i am stupid !

Super Syrian cuisine. The breakfast is to die for.

One of best places ever carry on guys

We went for the brunch on Sunday. I didn't try everything but they had many options and the ones I had were great. Excellent service and great coffee!!

Nice calm setting. Quality authentic food. We ordered the Makloba which was tasty with hints of cinnamon and tender meat. The frika lamb was super tender with the bulgur wheat having a nice bite to it. Forgot the name of the last dish - stuffed marrow with minced lamb. Was enjoyed but lamb needed more spices and salt to bring the flavour out. Mint and lemon juice is always a go!

One of the best syrian restaurant in London

The food was delicious, very friendly staff

The dishes are excellent and generously portioned. I’ve tried many on various occasions, and they were all delicious.

Amazing food , so friendly staff and amazing taste with best service I try food 2 times and booth was Over rated and nice

Really good food, good value for money, good service. The grills are a good size portion. Fresh juices are nice (could be a bigger size)...overall a nice experience.

Tuvimos una experiencia extremadamente decepcionante en Ayam Zaman en Shepherds Bush. La comida que nos sirvieron estaba fría, y cuando pedimos que se recalentara, se puso en el microondas y tardó absurdamente mucho en volver. Para cuando lo hizo, la comida sabía horrible y completamente poco apetitosa. Para empeorar las cosas, el servicio al cliente fue terrible. No hubo disculpas ni esfuerzo para hacer las cosas bien, y el personal parecía indiferente a nuestra insatisfacción. No volveremos a este restaurante, y no lo recomendaría a nadie que busque buena comida o un servicio decente.

This Syrian restaurant is a hidden gem! The food is absolutely perfect—flavorful, authentic, and beautifully presented. The service is attentive and friendly, making the dining experience even better. Plus, it’s incredibly cost-effective for the quality you get in London. Suitable food for the kids. Highly recommend!

Staff were really friendly and kind. Great place to have Syrian food. It was cooked well and it had lots of flavour. Lamb was very tender. Prices are really good for the portions you receive.

Ayam zaman is the best place to go beacause it's food are crazy good

It was the first time and I'm really happy .Me and my family enjoyed the food , the service and the atmosphere especially my daughter who celebrated her birthday there. We will definitely come again

The food is good, the service is great, and the place is very quiet and elegant. Greetings from Daraa 🙆‍♂️🙆‍♂️

Shawerma and flafel are really good I love this place

The food is amazing and deserves the price! One dish from the menu is enough for two people, its heavy cooking. The service was a little slow for a 5 star restaurant and the waiters sometimes forgot to bring over items we ordered so we had to remind them, but the staff was great treated people with respect and always had a smile.

Food is very authentic and fresh tasting, the Tabbouleh is especially nice. The lamb meat (both braised and grilled) is very tender. The meals are a generous portion

Highly recommended breakfast buffe 😋😋

Been my favourite place for chicken shawrmas in London for years. However, the female waiter that we had should learn to smile, we felt like we might get slapped by her when she was taking our order!

The food here was top tier, and very authentic. Tried Frika for the first time and it was delicious! And the Moutabal was perfect. Get the lemon and mint juice, so refreshing. Service very friendly. Will deffo eat here again

Genuine Syrian food, great quality and friendly staff. It’s so hard to find genuine Syrian food in London so this is a gem, good to support local Syrian business aswell. The adjoining bakery and supermarket are part of the same business.

Food was really tasty clean recommend one of the best place to come also the decor looks amazing definitely five stars

One of the best Syrian restaurants in London, especially in Hammersmith, where the Levantine atmosphere is reflected in the distinctive Syrian table served by the restaurant.

Amazing fresh food. Staff are very good too

Went at lunch time. Good food - everything was tasty.

The best Arabic food to eat in Britain, and they eat it all fresh and hot and very fast in downloading the order The prices are very good, and the meals are large and creamy I advise everyone to do so

Best ever my children surprised me with a birthday party it was great everything went well even the bill was worth it

Everything we ordered was delicious, and the dessert was a perfect finish!

Really nice food and staff are l always welcoming. We were there quite late but didn’t feel rushed when they were closing up. I tried one of the specials and I’m glad I did. It was a lamb kofta in a rich tomato sauce with yogurt.

I just had a lovely breakfast in this amazing place. Hummos with shawarma to die for! Falafel was great. Sfeha was amazingly seasoned and done. Prices are reasonable for the service.

Went here after QPR home game. Enjoyed Hummus, salad and a warm bread; followed by a Halloumi wrap with fries. Thoroughly enjoyed. Great service. Recommend.

Consistentemente bueno hacer un punto de ir cada vez en Londres no importa dónde estoy. Mi hija 15 también ama este lugar. El personal es muy amable

Had a very nice meal there. The staff are friendly and polite, the food is good quality, and the atmosphere was very nice. I went on a Thursday evening and didn’t have to make a reservation.

It feels like I was in Dubai. The food is very traditional and delicious. If you like Middle Eastern food, you shouldn’t miss it.

I ordered lamb chunk with rice . Disappointed as the rice seem to be not fresh and bit dry the meat also was not tender as it should be considering it’s lamb chunk. Also veg side was dry. Sauce not sure what it was brown in color. Did not reply pull a fuss as I say to myself never coming back. May be they used to be good years ago but not sure now. I am not a regular customer.

I do not recommend racism against Gulf people!!

Fantastic dinning experience. From the food to the service everything was great. Will return soon.

Second attempt here. Makloba is very good.

Maybe this is one of the best restaurants in London that I have ever been in 7 years living here. The food, the tea, the dessert, the atmosphere and the service are all 10 stars! I just loved everything in this restaurant.

Necesitábamos algo de comida mientras esperábamos un evento en Bush Hall tan repleto para este lugar. No me ha decepcionado. La comida era genial y el ambiente encantador con muchos hablantes de árabe que indican la calidad de la comida que vendrá. Tuvimos un mezzo, pero allí la gente cercana ha hecho un buen aspecto, tal vez cursos. Y otros vinieron por un sándwich. El babba ganoush estaba un poco demasiado ahumado, pero el resto de la comida era perfecto. No recuerdo cómo se llamaban los platos ya que son la versión marroquí de lo que solemos conocer. Delicioso y lleno. La olla de té de menta fue un gran acompañamiento y la baklava un buen placer para terminar. La factura era sorprendentemente baja, así que volveré cuando sea el siguiente en la zona y lo haría incluso si los precios fueran más altos.

Lovely food and atmosphere. Decent rates on food

Delicious food and reasonable prices.

Ayam Zaman provides an excellent dining experience. The ambience is superb, the food is served promptly and tastes fantastic. I enjoyed the Shawarma, Biryani, and Kebab Hindi the most. The portions are plentiful and the pricing is fair. A must-visit!

Had a lovely meal with friends here last night. Staff were really friendly and attentive, providing a professional but pleasant service. We were provided a starter salad which was perfectly fresh. Food arrived in good time after. It was perfectly presented and tasted great. I had the baby chicken and chips and it was spot on. Finished the meal off with some bakhlava and green tea. Will definitely be returning!

A bad restaurant and I do not recommend it at all. The workers are bad and unpolite with customers

Pretty mediocre to poor food - fairly disappointed. My lamb tajin was lukewarm, lidless and .. meatless. Won’t come back.

Will definitely return, great food

Food was very good but was slightly smaller than expected, but that depended on what was ordered. Service from some staff was great, others seemed to have stern faces and at first were confused with customers. Otherwise, it was a nice place to hold a dinner party as prices were competitive.

The potato in tajin and makmour was smelly, unfriendly staff at first when we came in but then later they got a little better, overall relatively bad experience wouldn’t recommend.

We had dinner here and to be frank, we were very disappointed. As an Arab, I was craving some good food to remind me of home and this restaurant missed the mark. The appetizers were fantastic but both mains we tried were dry and lackluster. We also experienced some stomach pain afterwards which is a good indication that the quality of the food was subpar. The dessert was also very average nothing spectacular. The quality of service was okay nothing worth noting. The atmosphere of the place however and the decor was lovely.

Uhm so l ordered from here on Uber eats and the food was £24 couldn’t believe it but bought it anyways Cause l used to eat here for Eid,it came tye rice was so small they put sauce on it and l said Nothing on the rice my daughter couldn’t eat it cause they put the sauce in it and l tried the call them to make a complain and they hanged up and was so rude Don’t buy from here

One of the best spots in Acton, near Shepherd’s Bush, for authentic Syrian cuisine. The lamb shank is a standout—perfectly marinated, tender, and melts in your mouth, served with delicious rice and steamed vegetables. The restaurant offers a welcoming, family-friendly atmosphere, making it a great place to dine in. I was first invited for dinner by two friends from my gym and thoroughly enjoyed both the food and the ambiance. The staff are friendly and attentive. I was so impressed that I later brought my family along. A must-try place. Highly recommended!

Loved this place. The food tastes very authentic and the staff are incredibly nice. I will definitely going back and suggest you should visit too. There are a range of items, none of which we tried were bad. An excellent restaurant. Grateful to have an establishment like this nearby to me.

The place is closed, it needs to open windows, otherwise the food is beautiful and the service is excellent

The place is amazing, location is easy to access. Food is 10/10. I m a food lover, and the taste was matching the plating too. I do recommend it for everyone who likes Middle Eastern cuisine.

Love the food from home. Like the interior decor which is so warm and homely, too. Been there several times. Highly recommended!

Excellent food and service. Went for lunch and early supper. Good atmosphere and location.

Excellent food and generous portions, extensive menu, pleasant atmosphere.

The waiter greeted me in a rude and unprofessional manner.

This is a lovely restaurant reasonably priced. Lots to choose from on the menu.

One of the best restaurant in West London. Food is great, service is best and always great experience. We have been going there for 10 years and no fault at any time. Always busy and price are affordable. Best choice to go there for best dinning experience.

Nice food Good service Clean Big portions Reasonable prices

The king of hummus! Consistently brilliant and everything from the meat to the Salads is second to none - love it!

Good quality and customer service

Good quality food let down by inept and disinterested staff. Trying to get to attention of waiting staff is the real challenge at this eatery as they just want talk to each other and generally ignore customers, unless they know them personally or are regularly Arab customers. The young waitress that eventually took my order was shockingly poor, very rude and only interested in conversing with her male colleagues. When she served my food she stuck her hand into the side sauces! Shame , as the food was good and I preferred it to other Syrian eateries in the vicinity.

we took 3 sandwiches, each with barely 3 bites of tawouk. The sandwiches were watery and soaked with sauce to the extent that we couldn’t eat them. They are not very practical for delivery, plus the tawouk portion was very small, with only 3 pieces in each sandwich, which is very poor. Additionally, the order came mixed up. We asked for no vegetables, but it came with them instead.

Bad customer service and the wings are raw this is the worst restaurant I have been I an really don’t recommend coming here.

Out shopping on the Uxbridge road found this beautiful restaurant. First experience and was excellent. Very well presented and classy , clean and staff are well dressed. The meal was delicious and as in the menu. Lovely place with excellent bathroom facilities highly recommend will now be my go to when again in the area

Maybe they just had an off day but honestly one of the worst places I’ve been to in a long time. Ordered the shish taouk and fatoush salad. Lettuce was old and compared to fatoush I’ve had previously, the dressing was well off and incredibly sour (I have a pretty high sour tolerance too). The chicken was very dry and I’m pretty sure it was reheated. The rice was definitely microwaved which can be expected so not too mad but the chicken was definitely not fresh. The waiting time was absolutely ridiculous. I expected to have hot and fresh chicken shish due to the waiting time but as I mentioned it was not fresh. The staff were very aloof and did not seem to care much. Interior is really beautiful but such a shame with everything else weighing it down. Really disappointed and definitely won’t be coming back. Oh and I’m pretty sure I got food poisoning because my stomach was doing backflips almost instantly after we left.

There is no taste, no flavour, no aftertaste........the grills on the electric grill...one end is burnt and the other end is not even...and it is all above and clean again....the wings still have feathers on them and are packed ...I mean, you eat with feathers, and if you don't like it and complain, he gives you an excuse worse than sin, that all the wings are like this... Of course, not to mention the prices, which are double the prices of non-restaurants. Food: zero star Service and atmosphere: 1 star Is very dirty, you eat wings with feathers. It is not tasty at all. I do NOT recommend it at all.

Very tasty food. Definitely recommend. I went for their breakfast buffet on the weekend. Very quite environment. The service wasn't very welcoming, though.

This is a gem. Food is amazing. Service so accommodating. Will be back again and again

Very generous portion, love the grilled baby chicken, great service and decoration, affordable

God willing, I have been wanting to buy from you for a long time and it has not been a while. Seriously, I was surprised by the wonderful staff and place. You feel like you are in an Arab country 🌹🌹

Very good experience, clean restaurant friendly staff, delicious food, suitable for families, should go again and enjoy the food 😋

Prices of breakfast buffet has gone up extortionately & the standard of food has gone down considerably . The selection of food is all gone. All 6 of us hardly ate.

Great experience for the whole family. Would definitely visit again.

Fantastic place for tasting Arabic cuisine in London. We enjoyed very much the Sunday breakfast buffet. The food is fresh and tasty, the stuff is very nice and helpful. The restaurant is very easily available by public transport!

It's a shame we always went there because we loved the food and overall the portions were quite large. Yesterday we went to dinner and the service is regrettable, the quantity and not to mention the quality of the food since it has gone down and without forgetting that they didn't even give us bread,

The restaurant is beautiful and the food is delicious, God willing. We tried the Moroccan meat tagine, meat kebab, chicken kabsa, and shawarma, which were delicious. May God bless their livelihood.

I like this place. Lovely food and great service and atmosphere. Reasonable prices..

I came in looking for a middlestern feel, and I really felt it and tasted it. The breakfast is a buffet at the weekend, and it genuinely feels I'm having breakfast in Beirut. Really love the different flavours and about adore there mint tea.
