Koyla - Barnet

This restaurant offers good value for money, but the quality of the food can be inconsistent since the original owner sold the place. Some dishes may not always be fresh or may be a bit off, but it is worth noting that the restaurant is fully halal.

When I got home, the kebab was completely soggy and melted at the bottom, making it difficult to eat without making a mess. This issue may have been avoided if I had eaten at the restaurant instead of getting takeaway. Despite this, the kebab was decent overall. The salesperson talked up their 'special chili sauce' a lot, but it turned out to be standard for a kebab shop. In the end, it's your typical 4am kebab option after a night of drinking. It's nothing extraordinary, but it gets the job done in a pinch.

I went out for a family meal with my teenage son and daughter at a restaurant that serves North Indian cuisine, including various curries and kebabs. My go-to dish is always the lamb biryani, which they make exceptionally well. The atmosphere is more reminiscent of a casual cafe or diner, with affordable prices. Despite the humble surroundings, the food is incredibly authentic and delicious.
