I liked it a lot, nice and cosy, even if it was on a really busy street. I really liked the lady that served us, we had a really good laugh, we didn't stay overly long because it closed quite early, good thing though we might have stayed out night. I enjoyed the shisha, we got apple 👌

Service is a bit curt but the food is absolutely incredible. Mid day there's no wait and if you want hookah you can sit outside.

I thought the food was simple, which made it authentic, but presented well. The Food was spiced well and was mild yet still hit all the right notes. Service was excellent: attentive and quick but I want rushed. I would go back again.

The food was freshly made and tasty! Quiet and cozy place where you can actually hear each other and not shout.
The price was also affordable for the area. The staff that has served us wasn’t the friendliest person, but still not too bad.

The food at zengi is just incredible! You can taste the quality of the meat and the freshness of the ingredients. Staff are attentive and it's all great value for money. A party of twelve ate and we didnt have to wait ages to be served, nor did we feel we were inconveniencing anyone. This place is a gem and I'll be sure to go back again very soon for the lamb kofta and the yalla yalla chicken starter.
Thanks Zengi for a great evening

While visiting London, I stumbled upon Zengi, which a mixture of Turkish and Lebanese cuisine. I am SO happy that I did. Not only was the staff warm and welcoming, the food and ambiance were too! We ordered the Haloumi salad, hummus, lentil soup and Chicken Shish Taouk. It went really well with some Lebanese red wine! I don't even think we had any leftovers. It was also the first time I tried an electronic Sheesha (or hookah) which I didn't think I would like, but we did! Hats off to Ali and his team for a great experience. We will definitely be back!! xox

Absolutely amazing!! Having lived in the Middle East for 7years, Zengi did not disappoint. The mixed grill was succulent and delicious, as was the falafel. Can't wait to go back.

Our team visited this place in May for a work do. The food was delicious. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed the atmosphere and great service. The restaurant catered for our large group, and the food was reliably consistent. We can't wait to go here again. You have to go there, the flavours are just amazing! Thanks Zengi

As far as the Middle East goes, this place was definitely an amazing culinary experience!
Their new starter, Yalla Yalla, was something extraordinary as the meat cubes were very flavoursome. This was complemented by nacho style chips. Next time I'm opting for the mega mezze platter as the cold and hot mezze menu had more variety than the mains.
Harrissa buffalo wings for mains - wings were grilled and had run spicy, flavoursome juices. This dish was served with fragrant Arabic rice and a side salad. Very satiating!
The Moroccan mint tea for afters was very delicate; fresh mint was used and we enjoyed a total of 8 small cups for £4.50 (I think?). Only issue - sugar cubes would've been a nicer touch as opposed to sugar sachets, though this is only a small, insignificant matter.
Decor was very intimate with middle eastern influences permeating throughout - cushions, lamps, wall art and even the access door to the toilets.
Service could be improved just slightly as one of the waitresses lacked service with a smile. Maybe it was an off day, because I will return nonetheless!

Excellent food,
Will come again for sure, this is with pita doubt a five for me. Lovely service from the owner, and just great food that is priced competitively for aldgate.
Flavour over quantity is the key here so if you want portions to fill your stomach and not care about how much for you get then try this place.
This is super underrated and I think you should definitely try this place out once!
I've only been once so I can't comment on if it is consistent with the execution, but I'm hoping it is!
