  • The food is epic, the barbecue is just authentic, I cannot think of a place in london with such tasty live charcoal barbecue, we should all give it a go, highly recommended ... afghan pastry called mantoo is to nice, just eating that and barbecue alone is worth the trick... the food is continental, worth a try... 5*

  • Wow!!! Honestly, such a lovely fusion taste in every bite!! This restaurant is a warm welcome in a neighborhood of greasy halal chicken burger joints and poorly made pizzas! If you haven't tried Afghan food before- try it today!

  • I tried Masa because the good reviews. I went there during lunch hours on a Saturday and it was very quiet, no booking required. There was a big TV on. The place is not for special occassions or romantic meals. The food is OK but they don't accept cards so it's not very convenient.

  • when I was invited to a birthday partyh there, I was shocked at how far I had to travel as a North Londener, but by the time we'd finished our lunch, we agreed on one thing: it was definitely worth it and we will be back! unbelievably fresh and tasty dishes, friendly atmosphere and service.

  • The food is good but it has become ridiculously over priced over the last year or so. we have stopped going there because of that.

  • This is without a doubt the best restaurant in London! Ok the sevice may at times seem a bit slack, but despite that this place puts so many others to shame! The Kabil pillow is just out of the world and the chops are in a league of their own. The wings are massive and I cant praise the place enough... Just go n njoy! Good times...!

  • Masa is the greatest foreign cuisine restaurant so far we have tried in London, with reasonable price and good service, except slightly slow in deliver dishes. Every dish, from drinks, starter to main courses, really tasty!! However, dessert is just fair, most are British style, like chocolate fudge cake, ice cream, only few are Afghan style, so, we didn't try it. For drink, we tried mango lassi, like mango yugort, not too sweet, fresh mango taste, love it. Starters are pea mash (hummus) and grill aubergine with Afghan yogurt sauce, served with naan, really much delicious than I expected!! The main courses are mixed grill meat, succulent lambs and chicken (both breast and wings) and mantu (dumpling) with minced lamb sauce served with Afghan rice, can't believe there is dumpling dish in Afghan, extremely yummy!! Masa Restaurant is thoroughly recommended!

  • Just made the great trek to NW London for lunch and was not disappointed by the huge amount of tasty, very reasonably priced food. Service was slightly slow, but friendly, and not a problem as we weren't in a rush. I just wish this place was closer to home.

  • i been to masa 2 times the first time the food was good and the service was poor,as the starter appeared with the main course slightlly after a minute and we had a on the house Turkish delights (baghlava)the second time went again for this thought that this time the service might have improved but another disappointment that we had our meal cold and the service was worster than last time,will not recommend to anyone unless u want to spend for nothing, and this time will try the new Kabul city restaurant in Edgware highly recommended by too many families

  • Looking at the location of this restaurant, its easy to just dismiss unless you're a local. I must admit, as a Londoner who doesn't hold a drivers licence, I only agreed to go when being driven by my parents. The result was extremely pleasant, so much so that I'd be willing to do a ridiculously complicated commute to go again. This is some of the best quality Central Asian food I've ever had. The lamb kebabs are an absolute delight, as is their freshly baked naan. Afghan restaurants are also a massive rarity in the centre of London and the cuisine itself provides a wonderful meshing of Middle Eastern and Indian food cultures. Not only was the food of excellent quality, the restaurant was spotlessly clean (in particularly the plates) which is a rarity amongst suburban London restaurants offering Asian cuisine. Alongside efficient and polite service, this makes for a wonderful place to have an evening meal with family or friends. If someone is offering you a lift though, take it.
