Al Enam - Ealing

Food 2 out of ten, over-spiced over cooked, and very far from Middle Eastern taste and presentation is very poor. Service, 0 out of ten, the waiter didn’t give me the detailed bill saying that he deleted after charging me, very dodgy, no water in toilets to wash , 2 pm on Sunday they shut down oven nothing from bakery section and no shawarma aswell that’s nearly half the menu that wasn’t available. Terrible experience and will never visit again, there are much better Lebanese and Syrian restaurants available, way much better

I had breakfast, cost me £120 and I have to pay service charge another 10%. I don’t know why I have to pay services charge?????????????

Well I have to say when I got home and read some of the previous reviews I was pretty stunned. Yes it is in a business park, but dangerous? Seriously!?? The service from the moment I stepped in the door couldn't have been more helpful and charming, yes even the lady on the till. I am no expert on Middle Eastern food and don't eat meat, so the waiter helped me pick items and every single thing was delicious. Everything on the menu is priced. In fact the waiter made sure I didn't over order as I got the fish with rice, beautifully cooked and you get a delicious soup to start. I will 100% be coming back. BTW there is a shop next door, I think connected which has the most gorgeous sweets/desserts so had to take some home too..and yes they were yummy.

Do not give your money to those horrible rude impolite barbaric owners; the woman and her husband. I discovered the 5 stars rating , the place is getting was written by family members and friends. You just need to go there once to understand what I mean. We are in the process now of getting the health authorities involved to get this place shut. The food standard fluctuates very much. The catering team is fine. The major problem is the lady owner and her husband who probably forgot they have to treat customers with dignity and curtesy. They shout at customers and never accept any criticizing. They have the attitude as if they are doing the customer a fever. The place is not nice to spend a break or dine out , food overpriced and the parking is impossible . It is in the middle of some industrial states. There other much nicer middle eastern restaurants like Bait al zaytoon and Pachi where they treat you with respect and honour.

Such a good breakfast here this morning! I had the breakfast platter halloumi, lebneh zaatar and my husband and friend had the sharing mixed grill lamb kebab, chicken ta’ouq, lamb shish, lamb shawarma. None of us have had Iraqi food before and came here when staying nearby on a recommendation from a builder when we desperately needed a good breakfast after too much wine last night! All of the food was incredible and the staff are the epitome of hospitable so friendly! Loved every bit of the meal here, definitely drop in if you’re in the area
