We booked for 8.15, it was to be a special birthday treat. Arrived at 8.10 behind a substantial queue of people awaiting takeaways. Every table occupied. At 8.20 two people arrived claiming to have booked for 8.30. By 8.35 they were seated at the first available table which was large enough for 4. No sign of anyone joining them. We continued waiting but still no table by 8.45 despite profuse apologies but no explanation as to why others had been allowed to jump the queue (they were obviously regulars) or why our reservation had not been respected. We left at 8.50 to eat elsewhere. Zaffrani serves good food but not so great that I will miss going back there. For the sake of over-booking they have lost all of my future custom and recommendations.

I'm a regular at Zaffrani and love it. The food is wonderful. When it's full (which I'm always pleased to see as it's great the business is thriving), the noise level is too much. I suggest you install some soft furnishings/fabric lined pictures or noise dampening ceiling tiles. There were just two of us on Saturday evening so hardly a big distance across the table, but we struggled to have a conversation.
