We were recommended this restaurant by an Afghan friend, it had to be good! It’s run by a family and it’s BYOB (already winning). We ordered Mantu (dumplings) for starters. For mains we had the platter, lamb shank korma and chicken karahi curries. This is the the Afghan restaurant I’ve been ro in London. My last experience in another establishment wasn’t great but I’m glad I got to try it again. Will come again. (Sorry for the poor photos)

Great great food and service, we’ve been there twice in 2 weeks we liked it so much. I prefer not spicy and you can ask to reduce spice, original way of presenting naan bread and delicious daal and mango lassi. Can get busy in the weekend but we fortunately didnt have any problems with booking

Great authentic Afghan food! You have to order the lamp dumplings (Mantu dumplings), they were such a lovely treat to share. Highly recommend coming here, portions were generous. And no corkage charge so we brought over a bottle of wine to enjoy with dinner as well.

A fantastic dining experience! The naan bread was perfect, and every dish we tried—bharta, aushak, gulpea (cauliflower curry), and Kabuli Pulao—was aromatic, savory, and beautifully presented. Highly recommend this restaurant for authentic Afghani cuisine. 🇦🇫

Had an amazing meal at Mihan! The bread was insanely good—soft, fresh, and perfect for scooping up the delicious palak paneer I ordered. My friend got the chicken tikka, and wow, it was cooked perfectly—super tender and packed with flavor. Huge thanks to our waiter, KD, who totally nailed the recommendations. He even hooked me up with some of their chutney to take home, and let me tell you, it’s so good. I’m really hoping they start selling it because I’d buy it in a heartbeat. If you haven’t been to Mihan yet, go! Great food, great vibes—can’t wait to go back.

Couldn’t recommend more highly. We needed an EICR for a property we were buying; George was able to attend and provide the report the same day, and even returned to the property to double-check an issue we raised at no extra cost. Very trustworthy, and great service.

George came and performed an EICR certification and repaired a ceiling light. He was respectful and friendly, and explained everything he did to us which was very helpful. The repair was done efficiently and thoroughly, and George came out the day after we contacted him. Would highly recommend!

Patrick provided me with amazing service! I had an emergency outage in my flat, he came out that night instead of going home. He helped me get partial power back on, then returned to diagnose and resolve the issue. He was extremely professional, thorough, and gave exceptional service! I wouldn't go anywhere else for electrical work.

Patrick has been great. What should have been a simple extractor fan replacement turned into a saga due to size restrictions, replacement availability and delivery issues. But, Patrick was patient, supportive, responsive and flexible throughout the entire process. I can’t recommend him highly enough.

Wow wow wow, went here with my sister for our birthday. Got the 10 course tasting menu and it was just a dream. You could tell every dish was so well thought out and the flavour combinations were just incredible. We had a couple of cocktails as well and they were quite imaginative. Would highly recommend.

Top notch food alongside top notch service. The food was truly exquisite and you can taste the hard work that’s been poured into each dish. Genuinely a great value tasting menu in my opinion! The service was friendly, kind and knowledgeable! Highly recommend! Also made my partners birthday very special!

Delicious food prepared incredibly well, with a lovely atmosphere - very comforting, not pretentious at all, and with very helpful and passionate staff. I was honestly very impressed - Josh (one of the founders) worked the floor as our waiter when one of his staff was off sick, and he was just so excited about cooking he’d tell you all about the dishes if you asked! The menu is also based on what good quality ingredients are available, and I really support that. The price was also cheaper than other food of this quality that we’ve had in the past, plus with the lovely service, we increased our service charge. We will be back!

We had an early sitting (6:30) in early January, and it was full. Ans I know why. The food, wines, service and atmosphere was very very good. It is an expensive meal, and when having the 13 dish menu, there is no choice, but I would highly recommend it. Plus get the wine pairing too. We even had a miss understanding on the us ordering the Wagyu steak, as it never came, but the meal was still very special. Trying to pick out the flavours and ingredients in this beautifully constructed dishes was too hard, so we just sat back and enjoyed it. My only regret was that I did not get a lift of the pairing wines we had. The red was especially delicious, but I don't know what it was. I asked and the owner promised to share the names, but as we were finishing the customers for the next service started arriving so it got busy!

Fantastic 13 course dinner, delightful flavours and couldnt fault it. I think £68 is great value considering what you might pay for something similar in London. Service was impecabble, explaining all the dishes as they came out. Cocktails were sharp and well balanced for the meal. Sucker for a steak so was easily upsold the A5 wagyu with real wasabi, even my girlfriend who doesnt eat red meat gave it a go and went back for a second bite. The pasta dish, we both agreed was one of the best we've ever had. Cant wait to try out the al a carte restaurant being opened in Shoreditch.

John recently came round to replace an old extractor fan in our kitchen. The work was completed skilfully and quickly, and John was friendly and professional throughout. He even contacted us a few days later to check it was working satisfactorily and gave us some useful advice. I would definitely recommend his services!

I would thoroughly recommend Michael. He’s clearly great at what he does and had our bathroom and bedroom lights sorted in double quick time. But more importantly he’s a great communicator - both in the lead up to the appointment to get this arranged and also while he was here; patiently explaining what needed to be done and why. As newcomers to the area with an extensive list of home improvements ahead of us, we’ll definitely be looking to use Michael’s services again.

I recently had N1 Electrical work on my clinic, and I’m really impressed with the job they did. I needed to make a lower ground floor space brighter and more open, and they totally nailed it with the lights installed. From the start, the team was super professional and easy to work with. They came up with a solid plan to improve the lighting, and the difference is amazing. The work was done quickly and with great attention to detail. I highly recommend N1 Electrical. If you need a skilled and reliable team of electricians , these are the people to call!

Bobo at N1 Electrical is another-level! He took my full home renovation vision and turned it into reality, exceeding expectations at every turn by bringing his wealth of knowledge and experience in advising what was right and wrong. From my initial dealings with him on, what I can only call a massive project to the smaller follow-up jobs, Bobo delivers exceptional service. It's clear he cares about building relationships, not just making a quick pound. This personal touch is why I keep coming back and confidently recommend N1 Electrical, specifically Bobo for both residential and commercial electrical needs. Quality, reliability, and a genuine approach? Look no further!

Apart from the nicest decaf coffee I have managed to find in London, great pastries and a lovely atmosphere/interior, whoever's doing the hiring for this place needs another 5 stars. The staff is always so nice, calm and welcoming even at the busiest sunny London weekends at peak times. Plus, their dog-friendly policy is not for show, they genuinely seem to enjoy the dogs that come through their doors.

Wow I love it here! Excellent coffee, we had a flat white which was chocolatey, smooth and easy to drink! As for the filter, it was naturally processed, and tasted quite fruity, light and sweet! An absolute treat to go down! We also managed to sneak in a pain au suisse! We’ve never heard of it before and it looked divine; it was sweet, chocolatey and crisp on the outside while moist on the inside! There are about 4 tables to sit inside and it’s a such a cute space! The baristas are also so so nice and friendly! Would recommend for sure!

Profile has easily become one of my top three coffee spots in London. It has a really nice atmosphere, the coffees are fantastic and smooth and the food is lovely. We stumbled upon it by chance and decided to give it a go, ordering a Oat milk Matcha, Oat Flat White and a banana loaf to share. All went down a treat, and now I'm looking forward to the next time we're in the area so we can pop in.

In London, it's often a choice between coffee or food, but rarely both. On this occasion, I opted for coffee (the batch brew was excellent!), but I was pleasantly surprised by the delectable desserts. P.S. Gluten free friendly!

A perfect flat white. The flavour of the coffee was so good - slightly nutty and fruity, a bit sweet without any sugar just milk. Good looking cakes, didn’t try them yet!
