Absolutely loved our dining experience at Diwan Kitchen! The Kabsa Lamb was incredibly flavorful, so tender, aromatic, and truly authentic. My son couldn't stop talking about the Motabaq Cheese, which he said was the best he’s ever had. We also tried the Chicken Mandi and it did not disappoint perfectly spiced and cooked to perfection. To top it all off, the Kunafa was a delightful end to our meal, crispy on the outside and beautifully creamy inside. A big shoutout to Sarah for her excellent customer service, she is very friendly, attentive, and made us feel so welcome. The restaurant itself is clean, spacious, and well-ventilated with air conditioning, which we really appreciated especially on such a hot day. Highly recommend this place if you're looking for authentic Saudi cuisine and a comfortable dining atmosphere. We'll definitely be back!

I ordered the chicken and lamb Mandi dishes from Diwan Kitchen. The chicken was soft, flavourful, and fell off the bone — though the breast portion was a bit dry. The lamb, unfortunately, was too dry and didn’t quite hit the mark. The rice was nicely spiced and aromatic, which helped elevate the meal. Sauces could definitely be improved to better complement the dishes. Overall, decent food with room for improvement.

Before i mention how amazing the food is, I want to thank Elena for her amazing service. She was very attentive and really friendly and helpful (she helped pick out dishes out). The food portion was incredible, we have plenty to take home and it was delicious! will be a returning customer. Atmosphere is very cosy and clean.

There was a shortage of good Middle Eastern cuisine in the capital and a few places opened up which are trying to capture the true essence of Khaleeji cuisine. That was until Diwan kitchen opened up. This place has managed to capture the hospitality of the Bedouin of that region. With two sister hostesses that make you feel like you’re actually at home getting pampered by family with you favourite foods. The two Sisters that manage the place expertly are a joy to talk to very knowledgeable about the food and their description show passion for this new establishment. The food was impeccable and the best Saudi/yemeni cuisine I have had in London and I will be visiting this place often. Highly recommended take all your loved ones here.

Amazing experience at this restaurant. Firstly, the staff were so friendly and helpful. We were lucky to be seated straight away and were given the choice between a table and eating on the floor (the traditional way). We took the floor option which was really nice and the carpet was actually comfortable. Food was really good too. We had Mandi, kabsa, saleeg and mathlotha. We also got the cheesy bread as a side. The food was all really good. The saleeg was very different from what we usually eat so we weren't a big fan of it but everything else was really good. The mango juice was fresh too and tasted like Pakistani mangoes. For dessert we got the areekah special which wasn't too sweet but tasted really good. Also the gave us this meaty tasting soup as a starter which was complimentary. All in all, it was a very hearty meal and enjoyable. One thing I will say is the portion sizes are quite big and I think 1 main can be shared between 2 people. Excellent service, amazing decor and great food!

If your looking for authentic food, then this is the place to go. The food was beyond my expectations. Absolutely fantastic and the service was great too! You can't book a table. So try to get there early, as it does get very busy.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Unforgettable Experience – Proper Khaleeji Vibes MashaaAllah TabarakAllah We had a great evening at Diwan Kitchen with friends, and honestly, it just hit different. There were six of us to start, then two more joined later, but the platter we ordered was massive—more than enough for everyone, and not a single bite disappointed. The food was proper. The chicken especially stood out—juicy, soft, and full of flavour. You could tell it had been marinated well and cooked with care. Even the rice and sauces were on point. And the dessert? Very traditional and just sweet enough. Really rounded off the meal nicely. The floor seating area made a big difference too. It felt warm, homely, and gave the whole evening a nice touch of culture—something you don’t get in most places. Service was excellent. Abdurrahman looked after us really well—calm, welcoming, and always checking in at the right time without being in your face. The brothers running the place deserve credit for how smooth everything felt. The rest of the staff were lovely too—friendly and respectful the whole way through. This place isn’t just about food, it’s about the whole vibe. Authentic, generous, and done properly from start to finish. If you’re looking for proper Saudi-Yemeni food in London, this is the one. Bring your family, your mates—whoever. You won’t regret it. May Allah bless their business and give the brothers success. Ameen.
