Boga Steakhouse in Barnet

I always wanted to dine here but every time I visit to have a look inside I’m made to feel like I’ve walked into the wrong place. It’s not warm or welcoming, staff stare at you like you’re an alien. Nice decor just a shame customer service needs a lot of work. It’s easy to open a restaurant but you need to be able to make people feel welcome, that’s who brings in your money after all

I had the crispy liver from Bang Bang and have been looking forward to having it again but to say I was disappointed is an understatement. It was dry, overcooked and very very under seasoned! Really really DISAPPOINTED!

We visited this place twice. The first time was fine, the second time was not, which makes me think that the quality is declining. We ordered one filet steak and one portion beef ribs. The filet steak was meant to be medium but was quite rare. Pretty much the opposite with the ribs, which we ordered medium rare but turned out quite overcooked. Sides were bland, dessert (cheese cake) was disappointing. They were out of many things. Waitress was not very friendly (they do have a more senior guy who is nice but their more junior staff less so, so they probably have a problem finding staff). We won’t be back.

Loved it nice people was there when we wanted we had no problems there food was ver nice

I ordered the Mix Platter for Two from this restaurant on Uber Eats on August 12th, around 4 PM. While the steak was nicely cooked and flavorful, the chicken wings and chicken shish were inedible. They had an unpleasant odor, which my boyfriend initially attributed to the chicken being stored with lamb, known for its strong flavor. However, I was concerned that the chicken meat had gone bad, given its off-putting smell. I only ate some steak and vegetables, but my boyfriend tried a bit of everything. Shortly after, around 5:30PM, he began feeling very sick and even vomited once. He has been experiencing stomach pain since then. I’ve been giving him herbal teas, but they haven’t provided much relief. If his condition worsens, we will head to the hospital and provide an update. This experience raises serious concerns about food safety at this establishment, and I urge others to be cautious when ordering from here.

Unfortunately the coke was out of date

delivery guy isn't aware of polite manners.

Went on a week day for lunch, so it was quiet. Service was very good and pleasant. Food was amazing, the chicken was delicious (chicken steak). The only gripe is that the chicken wings were dry and on the hard side.

On initial looks this restaurant looked the part, with the steaks on display and nice decor I had high hopes especially given the high ratings on Google M, unfortunately the experience wasn’t great at all. When we arrived we were seated swiftly and were served by 2 employees, one who seemed to be more senior was really friendly and helpful, the other one was moody and little passive aggressive. They took our order and to be fair it came out quickly. Whilst we were waiting a few members of the family decided to visit the restaurant room, none of them except the doable toilet had locks on the door, the women’s toilet led in to the men’s which was a little strange. When asked we were told there was a flood so they had to remove all of the locks, to be honest it didn’t make much sense, but I’m not a builder. We ordered the humus with the meat, garlic bread with cheese, calamari, and other bits for starters. The meat in the Hummus was so chewy I wasn’t exactly sure what it was. The garlic bread with cheese was literally a slice of toast with cheese on top and the calamari was so chewy it was not edible. Thought I’d give it the benefit of the doubt and would wait till the main courses arrived unfortunately it didn’t get much better. We ordered three Tomahawk steaks medium, the inconsistency in the cook was shocking as it varied between well done to medium. Well I understand the whole steak won’t be consistent throughout but this was just unacceptable. Also seem to be cheap and not good quality. We also ordered a chicken Caesar salad and the chicken was extremely overcooked so much so that it was actually not edible. I have to say, I’m slightly confused by the high reviews. I’m not sure if we came on a bad day however this is not a real steak restaurant. Table next to us returned their food and the chef seem to be very annoyed with staff and customers as he was shouting from the kitchen . Would not recommend this place at all and definitely won’t be coming back

Toilets has no locks Food was cold Potatoes were raw Chicken ceaser salad was chewy and hard Calamari was chewy Expensive for what it was Staff were friendly and helpful

Ribeye steak medium rare with fries and additional sweet potatoes fries was lovely. Portions size good value for money I would say fair price maybe on the expensive side a little. Service was excellent.

My burger came with some of the fillings missing (turkey rashers and caramelised onion) felt very cheated. Once I informed the waiter it was only then I was informed some of the ingredients were yet to be delivered. Wouldn’t recommend

Excellent customer service, excellent meal options, excellent food, great location. Highly recommended

The meat taste amazing as well as side and salad. Staff were friendly but had a lack understanding and communication.

Highlight: a fabulous steak dine place! Enjoyed what we had tried, the sharing platter mix meat. Undoubtedly a recommendation for steak and meat flavours. A gap we had experience in customer service, we had inconvenience chasing for service as we had to leave our table to search for a staff and request assistance. Also, the ambiance of the place is shade of dark, might a little lighter or brighter shade can benefit to a supreme dining experience. Nevertheless, the food was deffo great. We visited on Tuesday around 17:30H and it was not crowded, most of the tables were empty.

Food is excellent, but the portion size of the chicken shish was very small considering the price.

I came with my family to celebrate my 🎂 🥳 Very good food and service. We spend very nice time. For sure we come back.

Came for my birthday! Great service! Lovely food! I’ve been a few times prior and have never had any complaints.

I had a really lovely time food and ambience and aesthetic

Lovely restaurant, good quality meat and classy decor but staff literally have no idea, such a shame as I probably wouldn't return or recommend even though I enjoyed my meal. If the restaurant wants to be successful, staff need to be trained in hospitality, to make a customer feel valued, it's a pricey restaurant, was fairly empty and had quite a few staff on duty so no excuses for lacking in customer service!

Noriya was absolutely lovely, so helpful! this is gorgeous restaurant menu has changed from before and prices are reasonable defo going back thank you Liver starter was nice

I’ve been here too many times but always experienced issues with the parking. I came here with my family last week only for me to see that parking has been made available for people between 8am- 6:30pm and free after 6:30pm. This is so much of a relief. I guess I can dine in peace without having and fear or anxiety of getting a parking ticket 😊 . You guys have to try the food here. It’s incredibly amazing and the portions you get for the prices are unbelievable. Try the cocktails and I promise you‘d stay hooked 🍸🥰. Above all, the service is pretty amazing and that is one thing that makes the experience wholesome…. I will always recommend this restaurant as it has my 5star rating ⭐️

The potatoes were missing from the meal.

Exceeded all expectations. Not forgetting the complimentary chicken soup which was out of this world! Super yummy! Will be back for sure. Just to add, it wasn’t overly priced like other reviews have stated. Prices are fair considering the big portion given. The customer service was exceptional. Attentive staff made the experience better! Highly recommend this place.

They lied about there being parking by the restaurant even on double yellow lines. I was reassured that it’s fine even if there arent signs up.Left with a £100 charge. If you have to go to this restaurant, find parking by yourself. Don’t ask for where you can park. They lie about having some agreement with parking, don’t tell you you’re parking “at risk” and don’t care about the risk you take. If I knew I was parking “at risk”, I would have parked somewhere else. The food wasn’t worth the bill I’m left with.

Nice steak, decent environment and considerate service, definitely recommended 👍

Our experience at Boga Steakhouse was nothing short of spectacular! From the moment we walked in, the ambiance was inviting and the staff were incredibly welcoming. We started with their tacos which were bursting with flavour and set the tone for the rest of our meal. The rib eye steak was cooked to perfection, juicy and tender. However, what truly stood out was the impeccable service we received throughout our dining experience. The staff were attentive, friendly, and went above and beyond to ensure that every aspect of our meal was exceptional. I cannot recommend Boga Steakhouse enough for anyone looking for a memorable dining experience. We'll definitely be returning soon for another delightful meal!

Customer service was great. Loved the food. Service was excellent. Ali was an amazing server he handled us well.

Customer service was excellent. Ali provided us with wonderful comfort and made sure we had a great time. Not to mention the food was a 10/10

Visited with my family staff was extremely friendly and nice. Very nice and friendly atmosphere food was well cooked and presented.

The food was amazing, Ali was a great server and the service was great

Service was amazing, went there for iftar got given dates and soup to brake our fast. Reasonable prices, lots of parking on the road free after 18:30

Food was bland. Got the platter for 2. Very underwhelming. Was meant to be a fire show but there wasn’t. Drinks were the only nice thing. Service was bad, waiter didn’t understand english, hard to communicate. We were overlooked in terms of service. Everyone was offered complimentary dates and bread, except us… I clearly said we’re fasting and would appreciate to break our fast with something. Overall 4/10, wouldn’t go back. Bill came to around 125£ for 2 people. Would not recommend the platter.

Really dishonest restaurant. We called up to confirm that there was parking available before we made a booking for a birthday celebration. We made it clear we were concerned about parking and we were assured parking was not an issue at all. On the day itself, staff at the restaurant advised us to park in front of the restaurant on double yellow lines. In their words "we have an agreement with the parking officers". We questioned this several times and were reassured and so we parked there and had dinner. A few days later a parking noticed turned up! Upon calling the restaurant, they have taken no responsibility or accepted any culpability. That is just beyond unethical. They lied about parking knowing they would get a dining booking out of it. Dinner bill has just had an extra £100 added that we cannot afford. Cannot recommend this restaurant at all. What a pity, the food was not too bad and service inside the restaurant was lovely but this dishonesty and lack of responsibility has left such a sour taste.

The food was not up to expectations, the plates were broken, the waitress who served us was not polite, she could not answer the questions addressed. The drinks were good in stead and the atmosphere quite pleasant.

Nice place what does not do shisha no more

The steak was great. The tacos were even better. Excellent all around.

It was great!!! The staff was perfect and the boss Servet was just great!

Disappointing. The food was not good.

Food was good, but service was shockingly bad Lets start with the positive food good only exception was sauces very sweet and not meant for for a steak. Now to the negatives booked for valentines dinner and 1 starter came while I had to wait 15 minutes for my starter, as I finished my starter the mains came to the table no consideration from the staff to ask if they could bring the mains or if we done with the starters. We were never asked if we were okay the time we ate our mains even after I did tell the staff that the sauce was sweet. Waited 30 minutes for our dessert order to be taken, and another 30 minutes to get the desserts which was cheesecake and a creme brulee both of which were taken from a fridge and brought to the table. Valentines menu was the items from there normal menu with nothing different or special that was strange as if I ordered the items individually it would have been cheaper that their valentines menu I would have understood if something extra was added like a pallet cleanser or a glass of champagne but nothing just a £5 mark up from their normal menu. Was told they not doing their normal menu but one server offered me the normal menu to order my desserts very confusing for me as a customer. The highlight was when I asked for Baklava and was told they out of stock as they share the desserts with the cafe next door which is fine by me but when the Cafe next door has no customers not sure how they don't have stock of the item unless they person in charge of ordering messing things up.

Impressive location and outstanding custom service! Very delicious food and overall great experience! Highly recommend it! Thank you team.

What a pity this restaurant was built beautifully fitted, the service was excellent, but unfortunately the food, especially the starters was one of the worse that we ever had. Starter Fish was rubbery oily horrible tasteless, The chicken poppers were over fried hard pebbles like . The rice was more looking like pudding than rice. My wife and I had three lunchtime specials unfortunately all three starters were horrible. The waiter was professional and very courteous And attentive. Although the food was horrible, we still gave him 10% tips. Owner get a new Experience, knowledgeable Customer caring chef. If it stays like this, you will not be able to make any money to pay the rent.

A bit overpriced for thin steaks which don't have much marbling so tastes a bit dry. Rib eye should be juicy even if you have it well done, which unfortunately it wasn't. And they don't have any char on them, just grill marks. Basically they look boiled. They also charged full price for the 'golden burger' even though my friend got it without the gold, because he preferred the ingredients of the gold one. Parking is aweful in the area.

Now this steakhouse is extremely overpriced especially for Colindale area. I'll be honest you can find the same quality or better at a cheaper price point elsewhere. The atmosphere is nice but I'm not sure why they are charging at that price point. Now to the food. The quality of the steaks and all the sides we ordered were good. Only let down was both the flat iron steak, it was slightly overcooked and the quality of meat was nowhere near the steaks. Now I would highly recommend the beef ribs which can probably feed 4 people everyone enjoyed it. Both me and my brother agreed it's the best beef ribs we tried. Desserts was ok, it's not the best Crème Brulé we tried but it's edible. Turkish tea is not complimentary like most restaurants and it was ok. We found the service extremely good. All the staff were lovely. Parking is abysmal. Even the side roads within the flat complex have restrictions living around the area, I honestly recommend you do not park anywhere on the side roads within the restaurants complex, unless you're happy to pay a hefty fine. You're better off finding a side road off the main road which will have free parking. There is one that I use all the time and it's literally a 5 minutes walk from the restaurant.

Visited Boga on Boxing day for lunch. Beautiful restaurant and the service was lovely. All food ordered was fantastic and I'd especially recommend the Lamb cutlets. Will definitely visit again.

It was my first time here. Great atmosphere and service. The Rib eye was delicious. Food and drinks were presented nicely. Would definitely recommend.

Je vous conseil ce restaurant halal pas très loin du centre de Londres , leur carte est très clair et le service est impeccable. PS: mention spéciale à la serveuse bonike qui est très professionnel et à l’écoute de nos besoin

Tasty and well prepared food. Very attentive service.

The food is awesome, great portions, but the price is high! Take care

Really nice place. Great steak, starters were tasty, staff was nice, and vibes of the restaurant was excellent. Great to see good halal steakhouses available.

Had ribeye steak medium-rare which was cooked to perfection and the signature Boga sauce was incredible. The tacos were so tasty and definitely the best I’ve ever had. Great vibe and attentive, friendly service!

Nice decor. Great customer service and good price. The meal and drinks presentation is good. Food is flavourful and waiting time is decent.

Delicious food, good portions, reasonable prices. Will definitely come back. Highly recommended.

Great food and atmosphere will come again soon

The food is amazing, fresh and tasty The staff were really friendly, accommodating and attentive. Made our dining out experience a real pleasure. Will definitely come again. Chicken wings and lamb chops spot on.

Amazing place. We were celebrating my husband's birthday and everything was great: food, wine and service. I will definitely be back.

You must go when you come to London. Tomahawk steak will be the best steak you've ever had. Hamburgers are also very tasty. Excellent food excellent place!
