Grilandia Lebanese Set Menu Buffet style dining and vegan tabbouleh difficult to beat

Outdoor street seating in Mayfair

I am not vegan but the vegan tabbouleh was the best I have ever tasted and a reason to return to Grilandia for sure.

Fine cut parsley, onions, tomato, mint & burgul with fresh lemon juice & olive oil dressing topped with pomegranate seeds.

I love a mezze plate and Grilandia offers mountains of food made with love for a great price right in the heart of Mayfair.

I’d never been before and we decided to try because of the outdoor seating on a warm day and could smell the food inside, it was inviting.

We didn’t order a lot, the vegetarian platter £19.95 which had aubergines, Baba Ghanoj, falafel, hummus, Batata Hara, a sweet potato thingie, everything was really fresh and super delicious. And the mixed dips that came with pita, more hummus, it was good and lovely Tziziki.

The inside restaurant is very spacious and the friendly staff told us they cater a lot of events. It is the perfect style of food for sharing big colourful platters of lots of vegetables.

Don’t get me wrong there’s options for the meat eaters; lamb; chicken kebabs, we didn’t want anything heavy and vegetarian vegan is always cheaper if you are on a budget.

We finished with a pot of fresh mint tea which the staff were happy to replenish with more hot water for an extra cup each.

We didn’t have any other drinks, just water and the bill was about £65 excluding a tip. We added £10 as the staff had been extra warm and welcoming.

A bargain for so much food in Mayfair.

Inside the decor is based on eastern Mediterranean outdoor dining with flower garlands strewn from the ceiling and live music playing which could be heard outside added to the ambience.

There’s another smaller Grilandia off Regent St, 11-12 Hanover st in the west end. And three of four more scattered about. The first one opened in Westbourne Grove in 2018 and the chain has expanded since then.

A great place I’ll definitely be returning to. Even if it’s just for fresh mint tea.
