Excellent and cheap Lebonese food... The owner is very friendly and welcoming. My favourite lunchtime venue in Victoria
Near to everywhere.
Clean and very practical setup.
Excellent place to stay in London. Quiet and yet vibrant. 💯
Very nice restaurant with friendly service and authentic food. I would be very happy to return.
A very pleasant surprise as we didn't expect much when we first looked at it. From outside it doesnt look like much and the place is tired and in need of an overhaul.
But the food was absolutely great. We tried 7 mezze, I'm not sure we got exactly what we ordered, but it was delicious and my only complaint would be that I over ate because of it.
Very speedy service as well, considering the owner was doing everything by himself that day.
Bonus points for managing to make my son happy with the food as he can be really picky.
Amazing food with great service. I left feeling so full up I could hardly move but still wanting to eat more! The homemade dips were the best I've ever eaten, the meat was perfectly cooked, tender and well seasoned, fresh salad and great accompaniments. I really enjoyed the garlic sauce and the owner was happy to tell me how it was made so I can enjoy it at home. I'm not local so I won't be going again in the near future but next time I'm in the area I won't be trying anywhere else. Highly recommended.
Authentic food and owner personally tended.
Extremely friendly home made healthy eating ! Amazing Lebanese restaurant.
First time my mum and i experienced a mini cake with a date inside, very nice and highly recommend.
The mini cakes are scrumptiously tasty and just right sweet.
Had the mixed grilled that is great for sharing. Healthy portion of salad with two types of sauces(cool and spicy) to increase your tasting experience.
A nice variety of food for everyone.
Will definitely come back again.
This place is a really cute Lebanese cafe tucked away on one of the side streets in Victoria, near the train station. The ambience is cozy and nice, and I believe that the owner served us himself. Four of us decided to forego typical entrees en lieu of several appetizers for lunch, and we weren't disappointed! Everything was delicious, and we especially loved the lamb and warm hummus dish. The owner was extremely nice and kept our glasses full of ice cold water, then even gave us a complementary plate of desserts at the end of the meal. He was kind and funny and gave us excellent service.
Definitely have starred this place to come back when I'm in the Victoria area again!
So we’re looking for somewhere to eat after our son did the Royal Parks Half marathon. We wander through the streets around Victoria in the rain....every sweaty pub and anodyne chain restaurant packed to the gunnels. We’re about to give up and just go back to Brighton when we spot an empty Lebanese restaurant ( what’s wrong with this place??), and decide to give it a go as we’re all tired and hungry.
What we found was the most perfect little place. Great food, lovely people. We enjoyed it so much, I just had to write this. It’s just so heartening to know that London still has places left like this- as opposed to the soulless glass and chrome identical ‘cookie-cutter’ rubbish everywhere.
Added to this, the bill was half what we paid when we last went to London- and the food was vastly superior and delicious.
I can’t recommend Cafe Nouf highly enough- but don’t tell everyone or it’ll become too popular!
Visited this place when we were in London for the BBC radio 2 concert in the park back in Sept 2011. Great tasting food, reasonably priced with great service. It was so good we went back twice and also ordered a Lebanese picnic for two for the concert later on the Sunday.
We hope it's still open and hope to return some day. Very fond memories and we wish the owners every success. It'll be the 1st place we go back to eat at!
Had an early dinner here with friends. Was a little sceptical as I arrived as no one else was in the restaurant but that disappeared as soon as I talked to the waiter. Staff were so lovely and welcoming and the food was delicious, clearly very fresh. Decor was interesting and unique, nice change from the metal and mirrors that adorns most restaurants these days.
I visited this lovely Lebanese cuisine for a party of four. Staff were very friendly and owner was attentive to our needs. Me and my collegues had authentic tasteful Lebanese starters and mains followed by the delicious knafeh cheesecake and the must have mint tea! We then finished our visit with shisha which was also a great way to end. It was such an authentic experience with great food, value for money and above all else the service was absolutely fantastic. Would definitely recommend.
We ordered a grill mix and my company ordered grilled chicken. The lamb and the chicken was decent but the minced beef/lamb was cold and dry. Also the rice was burned and super dry.
The waitress was super nice and welcoming.
I cannot recommend this restaurant enough. The food was absolutely delicious and the service some of the best I've ever experienced. I was with my 6 month year old daughter who was showered in attention; nothing was too much trouble. Thank you for such a lovely lunch experience.
Passed this afternoon after a stroll through Hyde park. Food was outstanding! Got a mixed platter and was flavoured to perfection. Wonderful staff took care of us as if we were family! Real Authentic Lebanese food!!
Carmen, I was part of that big party, it was my son’s 21st Birthday celebration, so pleased you also enjoyed your evening.
Big thanks to all the staff for really looking after us and serving up a fantastic meal. Everyone had a wonderful evening and ended a tad merry from the effects of the marvellous Lebanese wine.
Will definitely be back for more…
Thank you
I prefer to sit outside,weather and visitors permitting. Cuisine is fantastic - traditional recipes, expertly prepared. The only place I eat lamb. I just wish they'd do something about the interior, though - it's fine as it is but it can still be ethnic with some modern touches, in my opinion. Staff are friendly and the atmosphere is affable.
