One of three place I made reservations at while in London for a few quick days. I was excited to come here and it was by far the best meal we had. Our server was great and the room was rad. I’d definitely go out of my way to come back here.

Food and service both get full stars all round, everyone is so lovely and attentive. Service was very accommodating and the dishes were something else.Why the menu isn’t posted on their website? No idea. Why is a set menu of shared dishes between 2 people £49 each? No clue either. We felt super bamboozled when we arrived because of the price tag, and even more so when the dishes arrived and the portions were TINY. We were sharing every dish between the 2 of us and I was so confused I even asked if it was £49 for 2 people. everything you see in the photos cost us £140 at the end, sooooooooooooo overpriced for this area it’s insane.

Nothing too much trouble for fantastic waiting staff. Don’t expect fine dining - it’s better than that. Borscht back will change your life (& I don’t like vodka). Sea bream, crab, ox heart, Adana, asparagus - all fantastic.

Have been wanting to go to this place for so long! Although it started with a bémol by us having to wait outside beyond our reservation time, the staff quickly made the situation better by saying sorry many times and offering them free drinks.Going inside, we realised quickly that it is not a conventional place. The seating and table set is different and kind of “boho-chic”. There was very loud metal music playing which was bothering us at the beginning but soon after it stopped everything was better.The food was the big shock though. It is a fixed menu, that has a vegetarian option. All dishes were very interesting but what definitely stood out was 3 dishes. First the squid ink flatbread is definitely worth trying with beautiful bread and great “tarama”. Secondly the smoked chicken over rice was my favorite dish. Finally, the deep fried apple pie was out of this world. The extra lamb flatbread was interesting but not something I would re-order.Conclusion, this is a great address with an interesting take on Middle Eastern cuisine, working with ingredients that you wouldn’t find there. Definitely go there on an empty stomach because.

Amazing tasting menu for dinner. Stand out was the squid ink bread with yolk woooooweeee. Super interesting/quirky menu that makes you try stuff you wouldn’t normally on a London menu. Would return!

Great service and a really neat menu. The pork belly and the trifle were definitely winner dishes. Atmosphere is really cosy and welcoming and the staff is just a gem.

I quite liked the rock and roll atmosphere and the general vibe. The price-fixed menu was quite good, although if you come really hungry you might want to order some of the bolt on dishes. We had ox heart on hash browns which was great. The problem for me is the price. A meal for two with a few drinks can reach £150. And to be honest, you can eat better in London for half that. Still had a ball.

F.K.A.B.A.M has been on my bucket list for some time now. So I was glad to get a chance to cross it off my list recently. That week’s set menu began with a nice raw beef starter. Then a spicy rabbit salad, and a flatbread that was out of the world. The main course was a little bit of a let down because it was a tofu milanese. To be fair, it wasn’t bad. But I personally didn’t go to FKABAM to eat tofu. Dessert made up for it by being one of the best tiramisus I have ever tasted.The staff were all incredibly friendly. Just FYI: since the restaurant is deservedly popular and has very few tables, walk-ins might have to wait for some time even on weekday nights.

I came here with my partner for our aniversary, and while it isn’t the cheapest place for a student my god does it deliver on everything. Especially since I only heard about this place because the owner came axe throwing at my work place.I ate the regular menu and my other half ate the veggie menu and both of us had an amazing time. We couldn’t stop smiling at how cool the food looked half the time, and it all tasted amazing too. Our waiter Sam was a legend, there just enough that you never felt like you were waiting, but without bearing over the table. Not to mention we had a couple of laughs with him.The experience is perfect for anyone looking for intimate, friendly fine dining without the pressure traditional fine dining restaurants put on customers to be something they aren’t.It was a perfect anniversary dinner.

Overall: this place is cool. Expect really flavorful food. You'll love this place if you're cool with whatever and down to just go with the flow. If you're not chill and cool. You'll hate this place, but I really enjoyed it.Food: everything was delicious, but there was no cohesive theme to how the menu of the day. One dish could be Mediterranean and the next an asian soup. It's just a bunch of yummy food thrown together.Drinks: only canned beers to my knowledge. My friend ordered a cocktail and she didn't enjoy it all that much.Service: everyone who works here is lovely.
