The best restaurants serving African food in Bryanston and Dorset Square City of London, Westminster London

The first time there, 5 minutes from the Marylebone station and it was so convenient. After a long day of fasting , it was a delight to be able to go and sit there to enjoy authentic Egyptian food. The desert was the best! The lentil soup was amazing too. Falafel made of fava beans was a surprise since we’d eastern chickpeas falafel until now. Great service by the lovely family, they gave us a table even though we hadn’t booked. But best to book beforehand as it can get full!

I had some great memories with this restaurant. After 2.5 years, we planned to revisit the place and revive the memories of having the most delicious food and all that in economical prices. We planned to visit it on our son's birthday and it turned into a huge disappointment! Every single thing has been changed. No presentation, not the same taste and service. The quantity has reduced to a child's meal. My husband ordered grilled chicken which was absolutely burnt and was bitter in taste. The prices have hiked so high that there is literally no relevance in the quantity, quality, and it's price. We will never go again at Shishawi!
