Izgara in Barnet

Lovely evening catching up with an old friend. Food nice and fresh. Service excellent.

We had a girls late lunch and the restaurant was almost empty when we arrived. The staff were attentive and we opted for the set menu. Well... over the next few hours the atmosphere was buzzing, the staff were on it at all times and the food was absolutely awesome! The cold dishes were great. The hot starter was fab, particularly the calamari which just melted in your mouth. The main was HUGE meaning a few of us took home doggy bags. Topped off with some nice white wine and liquer coffees, it was a lovely few hours. We will be back!

Went to this local restaurant for my birthday with hubby & friend. The food was first class. Wine very tasty and service very friendly and attentive but nit over powering. Very enjoyable evening and will be returning!!

Always very good, attentive staff & lovely atmosphere

Always a beautiful atmosphere, incredible food, friendly staff. The MOST PERFECT evening every time. Thank you

We were very impressed with our visit, we have been to the Izgara Restaurant in Finchley but in future we will go to Whetstone

Delicious food, generous portions, lovely service, excellent value. I've been twice in the last month and will definitely be back! Highly recommended.

Perfect place Perfect taste Perfect service

Fantastic food - excellent hospitality- what more can you ask for!

It was a busy evening so initially service was a bit haphazard but then the staff made up for it and we had a lovely time to celebrate my birthday.

I have been few times to Izgara restaurant, but this time I brought my friend and my landlord. Good food. Good service Good advice on what to order and especially the quantity.. which was good to avoid waste. They both loved it. You never get disappointed. It was bit noisy as its was Christmas season.

Lovely, local restaurant with great food and service

Another phenomenal night at Izgara Whetstone. The food is always superb, not a bad dish. The fish cooked to perfection. The service is great and the atmosphere buzzy.

Great evening, wonderful food. Very welcoming beautiful decor, and will visit again.

Very good food and service. Saturday night it was full and therefore slightly noisy.

We had good time, every thing was great, thank you

Very good good and service. A very enjoyable evening.

Food and service were both excellent. The bottle of wine was expensive for what it was.

Always excellent, always friendly, always a brilliant time out!

lovely meal as always. However lots of new staff, and trying to get a clear order was difficult . There is no kids menu, but they said they the would give a smaller portion size, which is fine, however, they kept getting confused with which meal was a kids meal and which wasnt - and we had to go back and forth with the waiters approx 5 times to confirm/ Other than that, it was a lovely meal. My recommendation would be to get a Kids Menu - it can be the same as the main menu but it will just make it clear to them what people are ordering.

Food always of a good standard However the recent increases in price were concerning! Paying £16.90 plus service (£18.59) for a portion of chicken wings is difficult to accept in a local eaterie especially when they are one of the cheapest items to purchase.

I have been wanting to try this restaurant for a while and I was not disappointed. The restaurant was busy but the staff were friendly and efficient and the food plentiful and very tasty.

We were celebrating my daughter's birthday. The food and the service was excellent. Very polite and friendly staff too.

Lovely and welcoming service! Mix platter was spot on with really tender meat although from the description I was expecting more in quantity and all the starters were delicious. Great experience will be back soon to try more!

My sister recommended we eat lunch at Izgara, I haven't been before but will definitely be going again. The food was so delicious, the service was great and the restaurant itself is beautiful and clean. We had the set menu which is 2 courses for under £16 (bargain!) I'm a vegetarian so I had the Zucchini fritters to start and the Vegetarian Moussaka for my main. Both were delicious and the portions are very generous. I also had a gorgeous pomegranate mojito. My daughter had the chicken shish and as you can see there was barely anything left. Thank you for a wonderful lunch!

We went to this excellent restaurant with my family on Friday night. The food was excellent and the meats were very fresh. Polite and friendly staff with excellent service. We will definitely come back again.

Had a meal here on. Friday night, nice friendly staff, food reasonably priced, good sized portions, great evening would high recommend to others.

Lovely staff tasty food friendly staff thank you 🙏🏻

I was been in izgara for my friend's birthday there was all great and friendly

Excellent Environment friendly service. Great Menu with many choices and very nice food with affordable prices i would Highly recommend this establishment to everyone

Everything was great, I felt where I belonged, thank you 🥰🥰

Service was very good, food very quality, all staff was friendly, I will recommend this place, the food was very tasted.

I been with my family, we ordered mix kebab, unfortunately it didn't come with rice, so we have to order separately rice, meat was raw and cold. Portion was as a family. Waitress with the glasses, when I asked him about the starter with hellimu salad, he just straight away told me they don't have it, until I told him that next table was having it and I wasn't sure what does it call, rather than saying no, he would offer me the menu and explain it. Restaurant is look nice and style.

Fantastic food. Very fresh. The meat dishes are spicy and divine. They are the best in whetstone

Although a quiet lunch time, typical for the area at that time, it still had a nice atmosphere. Excellent and pleasant service. 4 in our party and we all ordered different dishes and everyone was very happy with their meal. Nice food presentation, nicely cooked and ample servings. Recommended for a casual Saturday lunch!

I've never experienced a place where the food was so completely tasteless. It was truly awful. What made it worse was the management's total lack of concern, even when they saw both of us had barely touched our meals and told them the food had no flavour. They simply didn’t seem to care. Hugely disappointing.

Love the good, service good but do find the restaurant quite loud, especially since the extension

Fabulous. Apart from the woman playing her phone loudly. Earbuds are cheap!! So rude

Excellent food. Service was good with one major exception. On both our last two visits the staff tried to serve our main courses before we had finished our starters. Tonight one even hovered over my husband waiting for him to take his final mouthful. The better procedure is surely to serve the starters as soon as possible and then not cook the main dishes until the diners have finished, or nearly finished, eating. It's not as if our table was needed and there was a decent gap between our mains and deserts.

Lovely meal, extremely friendly and professional staff.

Lovely evening catching up with friends. Food wonderful and fresh especially the seabass. Staff helpful and polite.

A more upmarket experience than the regulars in green lanes.

Extremely good food, well served by Carlos. Comfortable with a good atmosphere

Amazing restaurant and service excellent and food is quality. Especially service by Ozzie , lovely time always eating here.

Food and drinks were great , lovely service from Ozzie, appreciate the service 👍🏽

Impeccable food and attentive service. Will come again

This is outstanding!!!!! The portions are so generous, the food is amazing and the service even better!!! Carlos, the brasilian waiter, was very professional, polite and he made sure we had the best experience ever!!! We couldn’t leave happier!!! This restaurant is a gold gem!! Highly recommend!!!!!!!!!⭐️🏆

Awful fatty food, no taste, raw meat, very very expensive. Never go there again.

Muy buen restaurante de barrio de precio medio con buen servicio y comida sabrosa. Siempre consistente y confiable

Such a lovely local restaurant. Great food and service. Nothing is too much trouble, even with fussy eaters. Clean throughout and good value for the size of the meals. Would definitely recommend here.

Lovely food, nice host, well decorated and ambience. Value for money

If you're looking for a restaurant with top-notch customer service, friendly staff and incredible food, look no further! This place has it all. From the moment you walk in, you'll feel welcomed and taken care of. The staff are always happy to help and their attention to detail is impressive. And the food? It's out of this world! Every dish is bursting with flavor and expertly prepared. You won't be disappointed. So if you're ready for a dining experience that's truly exceptional, this is the spot for you. During our dining experience, we were fortunate to have Özgür as our manager. He was extremely friendly and attentive, making sure that our meal was enjoyable from start to finish.

Very busy restaurant. We were a table of 6. Our meal was excellent. I would go there again

He visitado este restaurante en muchas ocasiones con familiares y amigos. La comida siempre ha sido muy buena con un montón de opciones. Nuevo menú de almuerzo es muy buena relación calidad-precio.

As always, great food, great service and a lovely atmosphere. Staff couldn’t have been more helpful.

Portions are generous. Everything I have tried is delicious 😋

Beautiful food & very helpful staff. Never fails to impress me. Thanks

Loved the decor, atmosphere and the staff were attentive. Food was plentiful and tasty. Great value for money. We will definitely return.

Excellent food and service, reasonably priced with large portions. Cop Shish was very tender and succulent and the Ali Nazik was 'casserole like' and full of flavour. Babaganoush and Zucchini Fritters, plus bread and dips were all very tasty. Highly recommend.

great lunchtime deal - delicious food as always. Shame that you cant swap in a side and they were quite rigid, but still very nice in there and would return

Lovely evening celebrating a big Birthday. Was lovely to see a restaurant doing so well. Food and service was brilliant and nothing too much trouble for the Staff, thank you.

Slow and chaotic service - kept forgetting our orders

Great food nice service but all side rice etc have to be paid separately even though you’re paying 20 pound for kebab.

Had a fantastic lunch here….great foods great service and great price. What more could you ask!

Great food , the mixed kebab was excellent. Service and ambiance on the money. Best restaurant in Whetstone. 5star !!

Food was what’s expected of a decent Turkish restaurant but nothing special, a bit over priced, good service. Not really value for money. Not sure if we’d return. We had a Father’s Day meal there and it didn’t really feel special.

Lovely evening, excellent service, efficient but not rushed. Delicious food with generous portion size. Definitely would return.

First visit here with friends, lovely friendly staff. Gorgeous decor. Delicious food.

The menu at IZGARA WHETSTONE is a culinary journey through the Mediterranean, featuring a variety of dishes that cater to both traditional tastes and contemporary palates. For starters, I opted for the Mezze Platter, a generous assortment of hummus, baba ganoush, tzatziki, and dolmas, served with warm, fluffy pita bread. Each dip was rich in flavor, Service at izgara was exceptional. Our server OZGUR, was attentive, knowledgeable about the menu, and made excellent recommendations. The pacing of the meal was just right, allowing us to savor each course without feeling rushed. Overall, whetstone izgara provides a dining experience that is both relaxed and refined. Whether you’re looking for a quick bite or a leisurely meal with friends, this bistro offers something for everyone. I will definitely be returning to explore more of their delicious offerings.

The location is accessible, the menu is extensive and delicious, the staff is very warm and friendly. Even though the location is far from me, I enjoy going there more and more each time. thank you

Been a very long time returning and loyal customer, the place is the best i can say around and about. One of the nicest restaurants and kind staff, absolutely delicious food. Its a genuine 10/10. I really loved their new lunch menu aswell.

Great meal and service. Quality of food was excellent.

We haven’t been to this restaurant before, although we have eaten it in another branch a number of years ago. Beautifully decorated and very comfy seats. The service was excellent and the food was even better. We had a lovely evening and will be back.

Izgara has always been good, tasty food and warm helpful service. Our last meal went up a level. The starters were beautifully presented and delicious and the mains varied and and flavoursome. I had sea bream fillets which were well cooked and a good sized portion, 2 generous fillets. My husband had an interesting chicken dish. Will be back there soon.

Great food in a lively atmosphere and the service is very good too

Tuvimos una comida encantadora en Izgara. Los aperitivos fueron compartidos y estaban deliciosos. Mi Plato principal Elegí la tortita de queso de espinacas. Un elemento de menú inusual para un restaurante persa, pero era muy sabroso. El personal y la decoración eran encantadores y un encanto Lugar para cenar.

I would thoroughly recommend this exceptionally good local restaurant serving delicious food in very pleasant surroundings.

I love IZGARA in Whetstone. Their food and service is consistently of a high standard. It’s become like our second home as we’re always made to feel so welcome! Thank you especially to Ozzie and Ayse for their superb hospitality.

Had to be the best Turkish restaurant in North London.Ozzie ,Ayshe and the team are superb.Friendly and welcome and service at its best.

An excellent place to have a family lunch. Great, fresh and delicious meals. Staff is always super friendly.

Our favorite place in the area tasty food 🪬

Service was perfect and delicious food ❤️🌟

Great food, great service and Ibe only given the noise level a two because there was a birthday party as well as the restaurant being busy so it should be noisy!

Lovely dinner. Great place with amazing food. Recommended.

Amazing food, lovely service, and a great owner. Also, they are great with food allergies and help throughout the meal. I highly recommend going there! It's worth any penny. Limited parking but there is a parking lot around the corner from the restaurant and you do have to pay but it's not expensive.

Lovely food and service always nice to be here 🍷🌹

Absolutely fantastic service Tasty food 👍

Wonderful food as always and very friendly staff - I love going there but it has become soooo expensive. We had a main dish each, a glass of wine, a coke, 2 desserts and 2 mint teas. The bill? £81! So I will go there less often as it has become too expensive

Excellent service, great food and wonderful atmosphere. Staff are lovely

Best Turkish Restaurant in North London, good service and amazing food. Can’t wait to comeback and have an incredible experience again

Fabulous restaurant Great atmosphere lovely staff love all 👌
