Abu Zaad (Shepherd's Bush)

• This is easily now one of the best generic arab/middle eastern places i've been to
• The inside is really simple but the decor does house many middle eastern influences and features
• What i liked was the service
• I went with my sister and we were immedistely made to feel welcome
• Mains we ordered shish taouk which is chicken shish with salad and rice (you can opt for chips) it also comes with khobbez
• It was mince lamb skewers with roasted aubergne cubes
• The aubergine was cooked to perfection
• It was a Saturday afternoon and there were a few people in there from all cultures
• They also do wraps if you are looking for something more manageable
• A must visit if you are around the area and want somewhere to rest your feet with enjoyable food
• I visited again and thr food was lovely and fresh
• The food at this restaurant was nice enough
• The service was not the best as my friend ordered a drink and had to remind them twice after to bring it leading to him getting annoyed and the waiter answering back
• The atmosphere is very bog standard and isn't the warmest of environments
• Especially since the staff were fasting for Ramadan
• Some of the dishes are not as tasty as the Lebanese equivalents
• The portion sizes are generous and service is good and welcoming
• This branch is markedly better than the one on Edgware Road
• My husband found this restaurant after a shopping trip at Westfield and I was a little negative as the area wasn't impressive
• Lovely simplistic decor with authentic peices from Damascus on the walls
• I almost felt I was back in the city centre
• Waiters are friendly and make you feel you are a true regular every time
• Outstanding food with outstanding service
• The mint tea they gave us at the end was really yum
• I was invited by a family friends to this restaurant I enjoyed it and also the food was delicious service was very quick the staffs were friendly
