Saffron

Been to many good Lebanese cafes in London, and that's one of them.

This place is amazing. Mostly this down to Mamood (the owner) and his excellent customer service. In the 3 years I have been going here I have never been disappointed. The wraps are great, the mezze amazing and the free baklava that he throws in are always good.

My favourite eatery in Holborn, just a shame it's so filling that I can't manage it everyday

Brilliant lebanese lunch on the run. Falafel, homous. taboulli wrap for £4. Fresh and tasty, felt like I was back in Australia.

I eat here quite a bit and haven't been let down yet. The food is always fresh and the staff friendly. The falafel, houmos, tabouli and fresh orange juice are all great and they always have something new and interesting on the go: had a great kofta and potato wrap a few days ago. They make an effort in decor but this isn't the Ritz. During the summer you can get a seat outside if you're lucky otherwise the seats downstairs have a certain charm, even if they are low to the ground and a little hard. I would normal spend £6 for a filling falafel and salad sandwich and fresh orange juice. Probably the best place to get a lunch time bite in the area.

I went for a small falafel sandwich and a bottle of water and they charged me 5, 80!!! This place is definitely a rip off!

The best Lebanese food that I have eaten in London and that includes all the restaurants on Edgeware Road!!!

Lovely atmosphere and the staff are really friendly.

It is really busy at lunchtime but I find that all the good food places are busy at that time.

My friends and I ordered a mixture of dishes so that we could try just different things because we couldn't decide what to order! Everything was very nice - lots of flavour in the food and very good value for money as they fetch you a lot of it!!!

Definately recommed it to anyone

I went to this restaurant with 5 other work colleagues for lunch. On arrival the palce seemed small, i booked a table downstairs which is smaller than i thought it would be with long low tables.

I wasn't sure what to have so the waiter said he would make something special, so I just went along with that. Ended up with a plate full of different things including oil drenched salad which was mostly onions, one large falafal which was far too stodgy, rice and lentils, spicy potatoes and roasted veg. I couldn't eat most of it, i picked at the spicy potatoes and then decided to give up.

I enjoy turkish and leabanese food but have had much better elsewhere.
