Abu Zaad
I ate here a couple of weeks ago. It is a friendly, bustling place serving delicious freshly cooked food. The menus are in Arabic and English and the waiters are happy to explain any dishes for those that need a little help.
It's a Syrian restaurant, owned, I believe, by the same people that run the excellent Damas Gate foodstore just up the road. Syrian and Lebanese food are very similar, so if you like one, you will almost certainly like the other.
Portions are large and vegetarians (which I'm not) also have a wide choice.
I should also add - no alcohol is served.
The fresh fruit juices are excellent and I can particularly recommend the Lemon and mint.
Its not expensive, the bill for six of us came to £75.00.
