Ariana Afghan Persian

Mixed bag hereSome mediocre food and some really good food but nothing my husband and I would go out of our way for again.

I really enjoyed the food at Ariana Kabobs were delicious and tenderStaff were very friendly and the bread was hot and fresh.

Food is good but definitely could be better, the meat is sometimes quite flavourless and dry. The Qabuli Pilao however is decent. Outdoor seating is nice, the shisha isn’t great. Ver carta

The most beautiful and authentic Afghani food was very tasty and tasty best restaurant I've ever been to the Qabeli-Palaw was so amazing my favorite meat so tender. The atmosphere was so beautiful, very good service and freendly and warm place calming I would recommend 100 percent. Tashakor All lazar. I will definitely come back.

Friendly staff. Good service. Went there tonight with work colleagues (18 people) the restaurant was able to accommodate us in one section of the restaurant. The starters were nice with freshly made Afghan flat bread. I had the mixed grill platter and Kabuli rice lamb shank. The mixed grill was meh. Nothing amazing. Only the chicken kebab was nice and juicy. The Kabuli rice was also meh. The price was relatively high per head. I probably wouldn’t go there again.

Used to my my go to spot because of how authentic and quiet it used to be here, staff were all family based and so welcoming and kept really good relations with their frequent customers. I really honestly miss that family I believe they must’ve cooked the authentic food too. After lockdown I took my friend and it was disappointing, i noticed different staff to what I was used to but i wasn’t fussed as I had been craving this place’s food. food just seemed bland and less Persian/more Asian spices used as everything had same flavour dna. Completely different to what the place used to offer. Ver carta

I was very curious to try this restaurant for the mixed review and unfortunately, this restaurant didn't reach my expectations. We wanted to try a mix of starters so we ordered that, the waitress said that the mix was for 4 people and it was a ‘selection of the chef’ as described on the menu an the price was 23£. We were expecting a many different starters with a great variation of them but instead, we received a plate of 4 dips with a lot of bread. I was so disappointed. Food was average. Nothing special that blow my mind, but the price was just unjustified for such a portion. So don't order mix staters you'll be disappointed. Try something else instead.

Totally rude staff! Stay away if you are looking for good service. Initially wanted a takeaway then decided we will actually grab a table and eat. After a lot of huffing and puffing from who seemed to be manager and saying it’s more expensive to eat in he decided we can sit down. Please bare in mind eating in and takeaway is same prices. I then asked for the menu and there was even more huffing and puffing. All I can say the staff are super rude. Dined in last week food was mediocre but the service was a good 3/10. They really are not bothered about service. Honestly if you are looking for a decent dining service stay away. Not amazing food and bad service I would never be coming back.

a true local gem! we have come here almost a decade and eating was always consistently fantastic, and well in portions. I'd say it's one of my favorite restaurants in london. there is no possibility that some of the negative reviews here are real! We moved away from the opposite in 2018 and therefore only occasionally picked up picking up when in the opposite and recently, when I dived to gather, I met the owner briefly and it was so frightening to know he remembered us and our favourite dish was gloomy. recommended: qabuli palouw (bodied with rice cooked with roast carrots, russines, mangles and pistachios) and shirin palouw (rause with orange peel, mangles, pistachios and grated carrots. w...
