Ayam Zaman

"A spacious Syrian restaurant on Uxbridge Road, with a name that translates to ‘the old days’ and a rustic, exposed brick dining room to match, Ayam Zaman is an excellent spot for Middle Eastern classics. The £25 Ramadan buffet changes daily, with things like kebbeh labanieh and maklouba." - rianne shlebak

"A spacious Syrian restaurant on Uxbridge Road, with a name that translates to ‘the old days’ and a rustic, exposed brick dining room to match, this is an excellent spot for Middle Eastern classics. Come here for some of the best mezze in the area in a lively setting where you won’t be told to keep it down. It’s more of a sit-down, starters and mains type of situation so come here if you’ve got an hour or so to kill before heading to the Empire." - rianne shlebak

And if you happen to visit on a weekend, don’t miss the excellent manakeesh that they get from Damascene Bakery down the road. Our favourite is the meat and cheese number. " - heidi lauth beasley, david paw, rianne shlebak
