“Arati is an unassuming restaurant on a side road amongst other restaurants which has a traditional charm about it. Decor is traditional, which provides a great atmosphere compared to more modern clinical decors. The staff are friendly and very attentive. The menu has a wide choice to suit everyone and even a section titled "English"! Food is fresh and cooked to perfection. On street parking only, which is possible on the single yellow lines from 7pm.”

“The meat was tender, full of flavour and had that lovely smoky finish, the rice was decent but the Adana kebab was the star of the show. What helped was the massive portion sizes which was well worth.”

“Deraliye offers a refined take on traditional Turkish cuisine in a warm, elegant setting. The food is beautifully prepared, rich in flavor, and clearly rooted in heritage. Attentive service and a relaxed atmosphere make it a truly enjoyable dining experience.”

“First time coming to Marlo’s and it was amazing. Very small , beautiful place. The staff were amazing and very smiley , service was so great , very attentive. The food was really lovely, very clean tasting , I had the vegetarian breakfast I recommend it 100% . The coffee was so nice as well. You should definitely go if you are looking for a nice breakfast date .”

“We had a wonderful meal there with friends. The decor is nice and the food is delightfully different from the usual Indian dishes. The staff and owner were very friendly and the final bill very reasonable. I would highly recommend making a visit”

“First time at this little gem & will definitely become a regular! Service & food was impeccable & couldn’t be faulted even if I tried!. At the end of our meal the chef even came out and greeted each table to ask how everything was which I thought gave such a personal touch & was very appreciated. The atmosphere & vibe was very cozy. We arrived at 6pm and didn’t leave until 9pm (even though we finished eating at about 8pm) simply because we felt so relaxed and comfortable. Thank you The Old Paparazzi - we will be back soon”

“Beautiful pizza, traditionally made in a wood fired oven. My kids love this place above all other pizza.”

“Have eaten in this restaurant a few times always been great. Haven’t been for 4 or 5 years. Visited on Sunday for Sunday set lunch. I didn’t realise they did the traditional roast beef chicken or lamb along with fish dishes. £22.95 for 2 courses. Starters we all had prawn cocktail nicest one almost ever eaten very generous portion size packed with prawns. Roast Beef was delicious potatoes light crispy and fluffy very good horseradish in fact I think it’s the best roast dinner for miles around. Service great. Very impressed why haven’t I come more often I ask myself. Will be back.”

“We ordered the Midas special platter for home delivery via Uber eats. What we actually got the chefs special Platter. The Midas special is the same as the chefs special but comes with Lamb chops, Lamb ribs, cacik and hummus. These we did not get. We made a phonecall to Midas BBQ told them what was missing and that they had actually delivered a Chef Special Platter instead. They was very apologetic and within 20 mins they delivered the missing items. The man who delivered from Midas was also apologetic. He showed great empathy. Thankyou whoever you are! Most restaurants who get it wrong just say get a refund from Uber but Midas BBQ obviously thrive on customer service and it was greatly appreciated. The food was exceptional and great quality. Well done Midas BBQ. We will definitely order again.”

“best Indian cuisine in the Barnet area by some distance, absolutely superb”

“Had to share my feedback on this place. I usually visit on a Friday after my therapy session at Barnet hospital which is around the corner. Every single time I visit this place everyone is ridiculously polite and kind to me. I hope you know how much of a positive impact you make on my mood and day when I come in feeling so vulnerable after therapy. You guys are the best!”

“Fantastic food, lovely friendly staff, clean and a very varied menu. Would highly recommend.”

“Yokoso Japan is one of my favourite restaurants in Barnet - the quality of the food is amazing, and the range is great for such a quaint place. I frequently have dreams about the nasu dengaku ”

“The perfect experience of British food. If you don’t know any British food other than fish&chips then try this place. Very delicious food.”

“Popped into in today and shared a bowl of nachos with my wife, absolutely the best nachos I think I’ve ever had. We opted for pulled pork and guacamole. All the ingredients were fresh and vibrant. Will 100% be back to sample more from this menu. Apologies for not taking a photo before we ate it but I didn’t think it was going to be so good so hopefully the picture still shows how great it was.”

“Had a team dinner there, everyone enjoyed all 3 courses and our waiter Chris was very attentive and helpful with the dietary requests. Food was all lovely and the Christmas menu had some good options”

“Ordered take away recently from Loon Wah for my family and I. The food came just before the ETA that was mentioned on the phone, no complaints here for a Saturday evening. Food came hot and tasty, and wasn't like our past experiences elsewhere. We will definitely continue ordering Chinese from here going forward. I can see some reviewers mentioning about the pricing, to be honest in today's climate, it's money well spent for a takeaway. It's not like it's restaurant prices or anything.”

“I’ve lived around the corner from The Boulevard for 20 years, and that’s exactly how long I’ve been coming here. What first appears like a private club behind frosted glass, actually becomes a mid size restaurant, private dining room and bar recently refurbished. Step inside for a proper Indian menu, not some westernised pretend curry house, many of the dishes you may not have seen before. It’s a great menu, the chefs and staff have been here years and they certainly know what they’re doing. And it’s great for Sky Sports too, what’s not to like?!”

“29/07/2025 The 35 ounce ribeye on the bone was tremendous and my dad loved the escargot so much that he ordered another portion after and our waiter a charming young man Sam provided us with very good service and made us feel more like a friend than a customer keep it up we shall be coming back again much love”

“Great tasting, freshly cooked, good-sized portion dishes. Chefs special of hot and cold starters and main course for 27 squids was delightful! Defo recommend”

“Beautiful cafe with plenty of space, the staff are so attentive and friendly and the food and drinks are well priced. Everything is always spotless, I have been here many times and never had any issues. Highly recommend for any meal of the day whether dining alone or with others!”

“On Saturday, five of us had a lovely meal here and a great time together. The staff were very friendly and attentive. I will definitely come to Mayhek again. Thank you to everyone involved.”

“I absolutely love this cafe. The cappuccino I had was one of the best I’ve ever tasted creamy, hot, and made with care. The space is inviting, with a mix of modern style and homey charm. The breakfast menu includes lots of delicious dishes. The staff are genuinely friendly, not just polite, and make you feel welcome. It’s clear they care about both the coffee and the customers. I’ll be bringing all my friends here from now on.”

“We love The Od Courthouse Cafe. A gem in High Barnet, especially when you have smaller children. The coffee is great (alternative milks available), food has a good variety (GF and Vegan, and dairy free) and there is plenty of space and ride one toys to keep them occupied whilst you can actually enjoy a cup of coffee, great cake and chat. We frequently come, especially during the summer. The community is what helps make a cafe like this so great, everyone is friendly, locals donate preloved ride ons/ sand toys and children have already been friendly and played so well.”

“I would rate this 6 stars if I could! The food was fantastic (best brunch I’ve had in a long time!) and the staff were warm and friendly - couldn’t have been lovelier! We’ll definitely be back”

“Megan and her team did an amazing job of looking after us all for my husband’s family birthday bash. We were a large group and were able to have the restaurant side of the pub exclusively for us. It was such a lovely evening! The food was delicious and staff couldn’t have done more to help us. We will definitely be back to eat again soon. Thanks for having us!”

“Lovely little pub. The service is friendly and we always feel welcome. Highly recommended if you are in New Barnet!”

“Jamie, Megan & co are very friendly and want more people to visit. Its had a revamp, lots on a weekend and during the week. Well worth a visit and the drinks are reasonably priced too. See you again soon.”

“Had a lovely Sunday dinner here (12/10). The chicken skewers were delicious & the portion size was perfect. Our server was very attentive too. Will be back soon!”
