“In Syrian culture, we can’t make any journey without first planning the food. If you decide to go to the cinema, you plan what you’ll eat. If you plan to visit your mother, you know that you’re going to eat. There’s no going out without eating something.”-Imad AlarnabImad Alarnab was a successful restaurateur in Damascus with three restaurants, plus several juice bars and cafes. In the war, Imad's restaurants were destroyed and he was forced to flee the country in search of safety for his family. Making his way from Lebanon through Europe, Imad shared his skills cooking for other refugees, up to 400 at a time, and found even in the most challenging times, his passion for food and bringing people together to celebrate life was strong.

    Outstanding Italian restaurant in the heart of Soho. Three of us shared a starter of Calamari and Zucchini, with a huge bowl of green olives. We then had mains of the chicken risotto, pappardelle with beef and a Margherita pizza. The portions were way bigger than we were anticipating leaving no room for desserts. Every item we tried was cooked to perfection and beautifully presented. Service was exceptional. The final bill which included a glass of wine and two bottles of fizzy water came to £120 (including service). Highly recommended but just make sure you bring a big appetite!

    One of many restaurants, several of which are Italian, on this street. We both had pizzas, which were large and tasty, washed down with a bottle of the house wine. My wife had a tiramisu which she said was very good and I just had a coffee. At the end we were offered glasses of limoncello which was a nice touch. The service was friendly and efficient. Well worth a visit.

    Absolutely delicious food and delightful service. Can thoroughly recommend for a great night out or even in our case a pre theatre dinner. Tonight there was also a great vibe and atmosphere l guess due to the fact it’s nearly Christmas.
