The food is genuinely good, flavourfull but you are going to make a mess so wash your hands and get tissues out! Atmosphere is elevated, kind of like a very fancy kebab shop. Cocktails are good but the % of alcohol is negligible so a better use of your money is choosing their house lemonades. They are delicious and cheaper. The only downside are the portions, they are small. If you are hungry, you won’t be full just with 1 plate. We asked and we were told portions are good size. We had to order more as soon as we saw the mains.😂 they don’t have many vegetarian options but the ones they have are delicious.

The food at Maison bab was so delicious. Everything we had was really flavoursome and there were lots of veggie options to choose from as well as meat. We went with a chicken and a paneer kebab. They were jam packed and had the option to come with chips on the side. I would opt out of chips if you also want to try the dirty fries as it’s a hell of a portion. We also had a mezze mix and the absolute star of the show was the meaty naan. It won the whole meal for us, so tasty! The staff were super friendly and we had a huge meal, with 2 cocktails each for £90. Beyond impressed!

This place is so good, I'm writing this review while still in the restaurant. The people, food, location, & atmosphere are all on point. Great experience. Don't miss the "Korean" fried chicken or the chicken kebabs. They also have a happy hour with discounted drinks.

Have been here more than once, for a good reason ... the food is wonderful, and is served very quickly, but is all freshly prepared. Middle Eastern food with the wow factor. By the way, the name comes from 'keBAB' in case it's not obvious, but there's much more to this place than kebabs. The staff are lovely, and the atmosphere is busy and lively. It's a great option for food around Covent Garden. Try it!

Nice restaurant in covent garden, Ldn 🇬🇧 We stopped to have a brunch, we had some cocktails and some food, the hummus was delicious although the meat inside a little bit too raw and hard to masticate in my opninion. And I thought the nan portion was going to be a bit bigger. Asides from this the staff is very nice, the terrace as well since it’s hidden in a calm street.

Great food and very attentive service! We tried the “famous hummus” which does live up to its name and also the special duck starter which bursts with flavours. The mains are great as well.

Visited here on a Friday evening, was very busy. The atmosphere is lovely, it’s a stylish restaurant but casual at the same time. Staff were kind and attentive too. The food was delicious, no faults there. Only downside was the cocktails, not very authentic but for the price it makes sense. The menu is quite small so I think it’s a nice destination for lunch or quick dinner.

Ordered a chicken kebab (fun trivia: in the US, we'd call this a pita wrap, or a gyro if it had lamb). Service was a bit slow, but the food came out very quickly. If you're seated inside, the toilets are down the stairs, so dig in with your hands as the menu says and you'll have a good time.

A stunning mix of meat, bread, sauce and pickles. Portions are too big to eat the mains with any sort of decency, but I'm not complaining about that. Turkish Korean fried chicken to start. Wasn't sure what to expect, but it was delicious. Staff were absolutely lovely and attentive, and we enjoyed sitting at the bar for a front-row seat to the action in the kitchen.

Service very good but then they did add a 12.5% tip on the bill automatically which I don't like unless it's a table of 6+ but happy to pay due to high standard of service. Restaurant cool with good atmosphere and music and a lot of effort has gone into the design off the restaurant and the loo’s downstairs really trendy. Food very tasty and decent portion sizes presented to a high standard defiantly the poshest kebab I've ever had. Price perhaps a higher end for a kebab lunch but considering it is nicely located in centre of town actually good value. Drinks expensive for the smallest 200ml coke I've ever had.

Wonderful dining experience and will definitely be returning. In recent memory, I would say the nicest, friendliest staff we have experienced in a London restaurant who provided excellent service and delicious food. Thanks to all at the restaurant for a great evening. I would highly recommend this restaurant.
