Akub Restaurant

The Verdict

Akub, a modern Palestinian restaurant in Notting Hill by chef Fadi Kattan. Dishes feature traditional flavours with progressive touch. While the Mujadara was excellent, the Mansaf was a let down and did not resemble the original dish (photo #10). Casual atmosphere and friendly service.

About this Restaurant

Open for Business

Fadi’s grandmother Emilie’s influence encouraged him to be bold with flavour combinations, inspired by spices and recipes he found from her travels, with accompanying notes on how to blend them with local ingredients available in Palestine. This inherited wisdom is what makes our menu so unique.

Blending Britain’s finest seasonal produce and contemporary culinary techniques with age-old Palestinian recipes, each dish is imaginative and totally delicious. Expect Arak cured monkfish, Labaneh balls rolled in sumac, zaatar, turmeric and Aleppo pepper, Bukjet Mousakhan, and Short rib fatteh.
