Berenjak Restaurant

This place does in fact live to the hype. We arrived exactly as the doors opened for lunch on a Tuesday so we got lucky without a reservation. We opted for the set menu, and boy was this value for money. Both in flavour and portions and taste. The bread was hot and fresh, the dips were all unique in their own way. I would highly recommend the labne dishes and the hummus. The lamb and chicken with the rice and fresh cucumber salad balanced out the spices wonderfully.

Went in trying to manage my expectations with this place as it has so much hype around it and that can often lead to disappointments. This place however was absolutely fab, very much deserves the bib gourmand. Delicious hummus and Aubergine dip, warm soft bread to go with it that was divine. The kebabs are soft, juicy, succulent and just so nicely charred and flavorful. Sides (rice and salad) were a great balance and addition. Service was quick and unproblematic. Very reasonable lunch menu price, we’d defintiely come again - if we can get a reservation, that is.

Faultless dinner. There was a wait although it was managed with an ease and sense of service. Dinner was perfect with all of the chefs speaking to us and giving us their recommendations. And some life stories. Portions are big. Although who cares try everything !

What a beautiful restaurant! The food was excellent and well-portioned. The price point is fair. The cocktails were wonderful! No notes about Berenjak. Oh, and definitely order the baklava sundae for dessert!!

A wonderful addition to the London dining scene, bringing upmarket Persian street food to Soho. Book well in advance unless you’re happy to wait in line for two hours without a promise of a table. At lunch time they have a great deal that gives you breads, sides and a main. Order two between two and it’s more than enough food. The breads and hummus are spectacular. There is a mushroom and halloumi skewer that’s off menu but well worth ordering. The rice as a side is also great.
