Halal Reviews for Berenjak Soho

Beautiful food, great atmosphere and amazing staff! If you’re looking for good proper Iranian food, you HAVE to come here. I know home cooked Persian food and this hits the spot. Aesthetic is on point, small and bustling, make sure you book in advance as this place fills up quick, and for good reason.

Small space, not an ideal dining spot or restaurant but more like an eatery or takeaway. Interesting interior design and decoration. Friendly staff, the food is passable, it's more Persian inspired than authentic Persian food. I guess Berenjak is more of a concept than actual Persian cuisine experience. Somethings taste good and nice and other things feel like made by non-persian chefs. Prices are high for what is offered in my opinion. The plates are very small in size and not generous but somehow the food is actually well enough and plenty (Optical illusion caused by small but deep plates making you think there is little food). There was a disturbing raw meat/ kitchen smell in the bathroom area downstairs. I would have given a better rating if the space was better managed and seating areas were not very tight and jammed into one another. Would visit again only if I'm in the area and out of other options really.

Charring seems to be a common theme here so best to tell the servers explicitly when you order that you don’t want this done to your dish. After removing the burnt bits from our grilled chicken dish the food was delicious and very filling. Starters were really fresh and the flavours were just incredible.

Definitely worth another visit! Small and intimate place with great service. The food was exceptional and the experience of sitting at the bar and seeing it all being prepared makes it more unique. The hummus is one of the best I've had

Fantastic food. The £20 lunch menu is a bargain for Soho. The amount of food provided meets great value for money and is also delicious. Service provided is top notch. Sit on the counter to watch the cooks at work while you chat and eat.
