Behesht London - Avoid!
I went to this place for my Dad's birthday and it was a disaster. Yes, the food is good, but the service is very poor - slow, don't answer questions, have to be asked twice...
We asked for some tap water for the table and the first time was ignored, the second time we were brought a bottle of mineral water. We queried this and said that we only want tap water (i.e we don't want to pay for mineral water), and was REFUSED! I have NEVER had that in any cafe or restaurant EVER! When we asked why, we had a few different responses from different waiters but basically their excuse was: "we don't have a licence from the counil to serve tap water" - "the tap water is un-hygenic"! it's SHOCKING! Obviously it was total rubbish and simply a way for their tight, money grabbing owner to get more money from people. I had to resort to drinking a glass of ice cubes! (we asked about the ice cubes by the way, and they make them from the tap water!). It was laughable. I'm pretty sure that it is ILLEGAL to not serve tap water to guests if they request it anyway.
When we refused to pay the service charge we were then intimidated and insulted by about 3 waiters who all stood over us. All in all - I would avoid this place completely, there are far better food places on Edgware Rd.
