The best restaurants serving Mediterranean food in Barnet London

Great little lunch spot in east finchley, lovely coffees, quick service, eggs how you like them, tasty merguez sausages, good shaksuka and menemen!

Amazing foods, good value, excellent service, I would recommend you try it for yourself, have been coming here for year's never been disappointed.

Absolutely wonderful time celebrating our anniversary. The staff were super attentive and made us feel extra special. Thank you and can't wait to come back!

Really nice atmosphere friendly staff really nice food

I had heard this restaurant was ‘really nice’, I dined here this week with my family and as fellow Greeks we are disappointed with our experience. The food is ok (overcooked to be honest) and it is WAY overpriced! £17 for chicken souvlakia (gyros not on the menu but they don’t mention this until you’re there). It doesn’t come with chips or salad. They claim is comes with salad - you get 1/4 slice tomato, 2 thin rings of onion and 2 slices of cucumber sliced into quarters. We actually asked ‘where is the salad?’ and we were told that was it..I’m sure they knew that’s not a salad, anyone who has been to Greece or Cyprus would know this isn’t how we give salad!! Moving on..if there are 8 people on the table and you serve two tiny portions of pitta bread that is cut in quarters so not even forming a whole pitta - that is. Or enough. You size the portion according to how many people are eating and you certainly don’t charge extra for more bread (they did and Nissi doesn’t do this). Our total bill was over £200 and it was not worth it at all, we only booked here because Nissi is now closed on Tuesdays and thought let’s try somewhere new instead of Deserie - a mistake. It also shouldn’t be £4.50 for a Coke Zero! Service was ok, a tad slow considering we were the only people in their dining. Overall whoever is reading this, don’t bother, I wouldn’t go back. Go to Nissi, they have a much bigger menu, friendlier staff, better atmosphere and much better value for money! Oh and also, they tried to mark my reservation on open table as a ‘no show’ because I left a review…I have my receipt so don’t try that!

Very nice chips 🍟 Staff are very friendly

Fuimos en nuestro viaje a Londres y fue tan agradable, el camarero tan agradable y el desayuno tan delicioso, tienen un menú grande y el precio era bueno, wen i Voy a viajar de nuevo a Londres, volveré

We came here for a weekday lunch, and found it welcoming and helpful. The menu is extensive, offering a wide range of foods to cater for different diets and appetites. We chose a plate of mixed cold mezze and mixed hot mezze, intending to order more when these were finished. The platters arrived, very nicely presented, along with a basket of flatbread, and we started with the hot food. There were two servings of each food, with generous chunks of haloumi, and very tasty falafel and calamari, to identify a few. The cold platter was delicious, with well above average hummus and tarama. We finished both plates and did not feel the need to order more food. As we sat and digested, the host brought us slices of fresh melon, a welcome close to the meal. I would like to go back and try other dishes.

5/5 stars! I had an incredible dining experience last night! The ambiance was warm and inviting, with a cozy atmosphere that made us feel right at home.

Very nice food, never lets down! Great atmosphere too ! will def. go back again and again, my local guilty pleasure as they have some great wines!

Thankfully this dumpster fire of a restaurant has closed, seemingly having the premises repossessed by the landlord, and we can only hope that it's replaced by something half decent.

The food is just great! Quantities are super generous. Music is good and the service is excellent (even the chairs are good…)

This spot is fantastic! The food is great and the service is impeccable:) I was wary of even having lunch down leather lane as it was filled with stalls but after tasting a sample of the falafel, I found myself going inside for lunch. The lady explained everything really clearly letting me know what my options were and the price of each one. Honestly fantastic service!

Changed name to Olea but pretty much the same (tax dodge?) Food nice but found things added on to bill that should have been part if the deal. Not convinced it was an accident.

Lovely restaurant with great service. Food was amazing. Super tasty and generous portions. Brilliant for vegetarians and vegans. Highly recommended….will definitely be back.
