    Excellent Lebanese food - best ingredients, I would guess, and nicely presented (and generously served). Good undemonstrative service. Only went for lunch, but it I suspect it would be as good in the evening.

    We really enjoyed our meal and the food was varied and tasty. The menu can be quite overwhelming so advice was welcome but we still over-ordered on the mains. For 5 people, order 5 mezze and 2 or 3 mains to share (the grilled skewers work well for this). Mezze were very slow arriving and they and the mains came out more or less together, which we weren't expecting, and it was awkward having it all on the table. The Lebanese wine was excellent. Service was very friendly and attentive. Overall a very good evening in a convenient location. 5 mezze, 5 mains and 2 bottles of wine came to £164.

    The food is good, I ordered the mix grill, which is delicious and valued. It's a quiet large size of dishes, my friend and I even can not finish it. They also offer fresh vegetables for starter. However, the serivce is just ok, it is included cover fee for 2 pounds for each person.

    A curious lunch - lovely restaurant with good food but rather spoiled by poor service. I arrived and it was quiet yet I was directed to my table rather than shown to it. My companion arrived and we ordered 5 dishes from the Mezze menu yet only four arrived. They all were, I should add, excellent and of a generous size. At one point these for were nearly joined by two others and, despite explaining we'd a) they were for us and b) we had one of them already, she was quite insistent. Eventually she took them away before delivering them, via the kitchen, to the rather bemused looking people on the next table. The bill arrived promptly but the amount was keyed in to the card machine so promptly I has to ask for it to be cancelled so I could leave a tip. This was all on a quiet lunchtime so I'd hate to think what they'd be like on a busy evening. It's rather a shame that my memories of Randa are of for the good food or excellent value but the chaotic, almost comedic service.
