The quality of food was really good and the service by Tara was excellent. We do eat out alot and know quite a few Turkish restaurants in the area, but do recommend this place for sure. We will start coming here more often. Slightly salty for our taste but Heads up to the chef.

My son and I walked in for an early dinner. We were greeted by lovely Adeena who very kindly offered us a table close to a heater as we had walked in from the freezing cold. She and her colleagues gave wonderful service. Food arrived quickly. The bread and sauces came promptly- delicious warm tasty bread . I am not a fan of the Turkish pepper sauce but this one was rather good. We had tasty borek. Both of us love aubergine and were slightly disappointed with the portion size but no complaints about the taste. Son asked regarding portion size of sea bass and was delighted that it was more than adequate. The request to swap mash for bulgar was accommodated too. My mixed shish was tender and flavourful. We also took home Adana kofte for husband who couldn’t join us unfortunately. I must say even though it was an hour later that he ate it, the dish was fabulous! And I have to say the table lights were great: no flickering led candles here! Overall a great meal out.

We came last night, at 8 pm. My daughter and son-in-law, who live locally, recommended it. They were not wrong! Brilliant pizzas, pasta and meat dishes. The service was low key and extremely friendly(young Polish guy). My daughter ordered a sorbet, I think it was blood orange, out-of-this-world tasty!! The atmosphere was like a large family gathering, not quiet, but no too loud to have a decent conversation. Highly recommended!!!!

My favourite Italian by far. A hidden gem or maybe not as it is supper popular. Amazing food, pizzas are the best in London, I have not found anywhere better except when in Rome. The Restaurant is cozy, relaxed and a good atmosphere. As for the service, the staff are brilliant and in particular Alina!!! Thank you for always taking care of us and providing a great experience!

A quaint and lovely restaurant with amazing service and quality food. Bring your own wine or beer meant we could indulge more and explore the amazing menu. It is a small restaurant and as long as you are prepared for that you will have no problems. The size doesn't take away from how lovely the staff are and how amazing the food is. I will reccomend this restaurant to anyone who visits East Finchley - or indeed London!

This is a fantastic local family friendly, family run easy going affordable but still high standard Pizzeria and Italian Restaurant. Staff and great, food is great. No alcohol licence because of the their local restrictions but they will happily allow you to bring your own booze and there is a corner shop 30 yards away if you forget to bring from home.

Exceptional cake and breakfast options. Its halal. (verbally confirmed) Really liked every breakfast option on the menu. I'd recommend going here for a casual breakfast and getting a dessert or bread after.

I have been a customer at La Gourmandise for about three years. For me, it is objectively one of the best places to have a good breakfast or lunch. The food is excellent and fresh (preference for eggs royal and for the chocolate fondant). The environment is comfortable and cosy and the staff is always very friendly and polite.

I popped into La Gourmandise Cafe on Boxing Day as it was one of the very few patisseries open during the Christmas holiday. And what a treat. I managed to pick up some fresh pastries and everyone coming by was in good holiday spirits. It actually felt quite special and certainly made for a nice start to the day.

What a delightful lunch!! The kind of meal that makes you feel healthy and invigorated after eating it. The staff were friendly and welcoming and the coffee is lovely. I would definitely recommend trying some of their sweet treats, they’re so beautiful to look at and even better to taste! A local gem.

My experience with emergency electricians and plumbers was brilliant. Between my initial call and fixing my problem, it took less than 3 hours. They were friendly and helpful throughout and I wouldn't hesitate to ask for their help again should I need it. Thanks to the team for their support - I recommend this company to anyone!

My family and I always enjoy eating here on special occasions! This time, I went with my family and grandparents and we thoroughly enjoyed it! Not only are the staff very hospitable and kind, but the food is incredibly rich and delicious. And, very authentic Turkish cuisine. Regarding the menu, I would recommend the lamb chops. Fantastic experience!!

Sonar the the Meze and Shish owner/manager is so kind, and service oriented. My wife and I would bring our American visitors to Meze and Shish several times and were never disappointed. We always order the grilled meat platter and a cold salad platter, the puffy bread, so wonderful. It was the place to go for sit down group dinners during our months of living in London. Our waiter was usually Sonar himself or Sumitt. They are both GREAT service oriented. We recently moved back to America and will miss Meze and Shish, and the great food so much. Thank you Meze & Shish, Sonar and Sumitt for so many wonderful memories and food over the past few months.

Food - incredible, I felt like I’m going to heaven while I was eating, the coffee was amazing also, we really regret we didn’t find this place sooner Staff - the nicest people I probably met in whole London, they are fast with delivering your order to your table The place is a little small which i don’t like generally but here I don’t really mind it’s a really nice and comfortable and safe place.

Lovely place in North Finchley with a such impressive service (super quick and friendly) also the food was amazing! The place is not massive, but there is a quick turnover of clients, so the wait is not very long when there aren't seats. I def recommend it 👌

We were around in North Finchley for a play at arts depot when came across this gem of a place for brunch. Their salad bowls tempted me to go inside but the menu had a lot of my favourite breakfast dishes so I ended up ordering Shakshouka that tasted quite similar to how I cook this dish at home. Do try it! The baguettes were delicious too. Staff here were super attentive and friendly with great sense of humour. It was good to see them all enjoy their work and try to put a smile on everyone’s faces and maintain great vibes. Highly recommend visiting here. Although it’s out of the way and we don’t normally go to Finchley but we might go again just to enjoy some breakfast here.

Come here if you have a hankering for sandwiches. My husband ordered the crispy chicken sandwich, which he enjoyed. My sausage and egg bagel was tasty and rich, with a high quality egg that was perfectly oozy. The sandwich was quite substantial for me, though. I imagine there was a good amount of fat in it, since I was barely hungry for dinner later that evening. The cafe isn’t very large, but go to the back for more seating if you don’t see any free tables near the counter. There is also a toilet available there.

I have been living in East Finchley for a number of years ... Casa Pepe is one of my favourite places to sit down and have a coffee or a meal ... Staff like Emma and Christina always serving with a ready smile and the rest of the staff hard working and friendly ... Things get done quickly for such a busy little place and I've never had a complaint about the the quality of the food nor the service ... I tend to recommend it to my friends as the ''meet and munch'' spot in East Finchley ...

I can’t recommend Durum Finchley Central enough! From the moment we walked in, the warm and inviting atmosphere made us feel right at home. The staff was incredibly friendly and attentive, making sure every detail of our experience was perfect. The food was absolutely incredible—everything was bursting with authentic Turkish flavors. We started with the fresh bread and salad, which was a delightful mix of fresh hummus, For the main course, the lamb and chicken kebabs were tender and seasoned to perfection, while the vegetarian options were equally delicious. The highlight of the meal was the baklava—crispy, sweet, and paired with a lovely cup of Turkish tea. It was the perfect way to end such a wonderful dining experience. If you’re looking for an authentic Turkish culinary experience, Durum is a must-visit.

I love Durum. I’ve been coming here for about 17 years. The standards never drop. The food is superb and beautifully presented by a very professional team. My particular favourite is the Aubergine Kebab but I’ve tasted everything on the menu and it’s all superb. It’s one of the most consistently excellent places I’ve been to and I’ll be coming back again and again for many years to come. Book a table now and enjoy every minute!!!
