Food is amazing, staff very friendly, we had a blast. Ordered lots of starters for 4, and then two main and two dessert, we were stuffed at the end of the meal and really happy about it. payed 34£ each but didn't complain because we were really surprised but the attention to details when it come to the tasty treats that we orderd

Found this place, just around the corner from Earl's Court Tube. Food seemed very authentic and was one of best middle-eastern restaurants I have found in London.

Great service. Advice given on portion sizes saved us over ordering. Food was excellent, restaurant very busy, tables not large and with little space between. However this only made the atmosphere more inclusive for the multi-cultural clients. Most enjoyable.

The table wasn't ready when we arrived and the restaurant was packed out, so we went for a drink across the road. We had the set menu. The food was varied and really tasty. Two of the group I went with had never had lebanese food before and really enjoyed.

The good reviews of this place encouraged us to dine here on a Sunday evening. It is a nice little restaurant. The food was ok, but i have eaten much better lebanese food from other establishments, the service was very friendly, a down side was that all the dishes arrived simultaneously and we felt very rushed, finished our meal quickly and left the restaurant - a little disappointed.

A great buzzy restaurant with fabulous Lebanese food of the highest quality. We had a selection of beautifully fresh mezze, all served in generous quantities by friendly, good-humoured staff. The Lebanese wine was excellent and the main courses and desserts were all delicious. We will certainly be back again soon! Thank you Orjowan!

A wonderful experience in Orjowan. The food was delicious and the waiter/owner couldn't have been more helpful. He even gave us some of the gorgeous baklava to take home with us. Will def be back.

We had a really good early evening meal at Orjowan before heading off to a concert. The food was excellent - the manager provided advice on what combination of mezzes would go together which was good. Our only quibble was that the main courses arrived before we had completely finished our starters, so we felt a bit rushed. That was only a minor thing and we would definitely recommend the Orjowan to anyone.

We discovered Orjowan on a recent trip to London, and all I can say is we wish we'd discovered it sooner! We received a friendly welcome, attentive service and well-presented, tasty food at a very reasonable price for Central London. We will definitely be back!

Excellent professional and friendly staff, food and service truly Lebanese, natural like Lebanese home cooked food. We, party of 4, all tried each other's food so I can recommend the lamb and fish sayyediye and kofte. Hommos, taboule all very good. Good to find a Lebanese restaurant in a good district of London. Thank you, we will be back!!

It was a really lovely place, the staff were really quick to seat us. We had a reservation, which I would recommend doing as it looks like it is quite popular (we went on a Friday evening and there often were people queuing throughout the evening). The food was really good and came quickly considering it was very busy. They have a selection of Lebanese wines to choose from and are worth trying. We had a wonderful rosé to go with the food. The staff were really attentive and friendly. It made for a lovely evening. Worth noting that the restaurant is quite small with a lot of tables but not uncomfortably so for myself or the other diner who was with me.

Classy Lebanese restaurant in Earl's Court. Good atmosphere and good service to go with good, classic Lebanese cuisine and wine. All our mezze were excellent, as was the shish taouk.

The restaurant was almost empty at 1.30pm, which raised doubts. However, we were greeted and treated with excellent hospitality, and the mezze were very good. The fresh mint lemonade was particularly delicious. The only disappointment was that we were not given a bowl of fresh, chilled salad vegetables as an aperitif (and to eat with our hummus and moutabel) as is customary in other Lebanese restaurants I go to regularly. But overall we were very pleased with the food and service, and will certainly return.

The food at Orjowan is one of the best Lebanese I have had in London. My daughter and I are vegetarian and always share the mezze. My husband and son also like the non-veg menu. The staff is lovely and like the service too. Location convenient also.

I really enjoyed this very comfortable and cozy restaurant on a side-street off of Earl's Court. The chairs and service were excellent. The food was very good Lebanese style. I had a series of mezzes--hummous with lamb, an okra dish, and a cheeses pastry dish. I enjoyed them all, but the hummus was particularly nice. All in all, I would definitely return here.

Good food, but the tables are way too small. The reservation also did not work, but we luckily got a (very) small table. If you are not too tall or big, a good choice

Excellent food..... but when it came to payment their card machine wouldn't work... which is fine..... but since I had to go and find a cash point and come back to settle the bill I would have though it reasonable to either discount the bill, offer a free drink - or at least waive the service charge!.... shame the customer service didn't match the food.

Staff friendly though a little chaotic. Seemed to be a bit of aggro going on between some of them, meaning a lot of storming out and heated arguments in the street. Food good though could have been warmer. Would return.
