About Kenza

From the people who brought you the endlessly-popular Levant and Pasha restaurants comes their latest City addition, Kenza. Dripping with rich fabrics, cushions, carved tables and exotic charm, Kenza fuses the styles of the Middle East and Maghreb, complete with the seductive air of incense and rose petals. The menu is an exercise in contrasts: subtle scents, complex spicing and traditional ingredients used in innovative ways. In the true Middle Eastern way, menus are designed for sharing. Although Kenza is perfect for relaxing by day, at night the restaurant turns into North African carnival, complete with glamorous belly dancers performing every evening.

Sample menu

Signature dish

Slowly-roasted whole lamb shoulder with apricots, figs, dates and prunes served with cinnamon couscous and sultanas.

Kenza (London) was a lovely restaurant to go to. We had the summer feast menu and it was good value for money and tasted amazing. Loved the atmosphere as well, the belly dancers were a good touch!

Kenza, London. This is the 6th time I have been to Kenza. Always excellent food and service, can be expensive, especially if you order alcohol drinks. average price for two people is roughly £60-£70.
