The food is what we call Middle Eastern in the States.  For starters, we had babaganoush and phylo-wrapped spinach/cheese.  Our main courses were the Lamb Amana, which is minced lamb mixed with spices then formed into a long meatball and cooked on a skewer, and lamb shish kebab. Both were really good.  The chicken was moist and flavorful, while the lamb was spicy and juicy.  The service was prompt and the interior very confortable. I think you will really like it.

Ambiance is good, service cannot say much as the place was empty but I will say this we were seating next to the kitchen, there was a small opening to kitchen, and the waitress was just standing there with her back facing to us talking to the staff inside. I guess she was gabbing. I think it's not right specially when you have a table next to a kitchen. Food is ok but since it's a tourist place prices are on the higher side. Nothing great about the food I won't go again if I am here. Suggestion Shish kebab should be served with better than just white rice and salad.

As a native New Yorker I'm always skeptical of restaurants in tourist spots and generally shy away from them but after a long day of being a tourist in London, I stepped in here for some reprieve from the summer heat. First of all, the ambiance is really nice. High ceilings with tasteful modern decor, cozy booths and tables, plenty of outdoor seating, and a classy looking bar. I loved the fact that they had a kids menu with kid-friendly options. My younger one was thrilled with his chicken nuggets and heaping plate of fries. I ordered the lamb kebab which was excellently seasoned and came with a perfectly portioned side of rice and side salad. My older one ordered the chicken kebabs which were Amazing. Big juicy chunks of white breast meat perfectly seasoned. YUM! They get 10/10. Do yourself a favor and don't pass by this place if you're strolling around the London Eye.

After an overnight flight from the US and a later-than-expected check-in at our hotel, we ventured out around the neighborhood looking for food and ended up at nearby Southbank.  There were enough people already there to suggest to us that this was likely a pretty good restaurant.  We were promptly seated and had great overall service.  The chicken kabobs were tender and had a wonderful blend of spices that we couldn't quite identify.  The burger and fries were also very good.  Even the dressing used on the side salad was very tasty.  Were we just jet-lagged and hungry?  Maybe a little, but even so, i would say the food was very good.  I would definitely come here again next time i'm in the neighborhood.

Our family stumbled upon this place during the Big Ben stop of the hop-on hop-off bus tour. We were very pleased! The food tasted very fresh and was seasoned to perfection! We started with hummus - so good!! I ordered the lamb shish kabobs and they were so so so good!! 

Service was great as well! Absolutely no complaints. Would come back here again!

Respite from the rain .. Yelp directed us to this quiet alleyway lined with eateries just step away from the London Eye. While we were contemplating which restaurant to patron, a kind gentleman "convinced" us to come in. (I don't think he would've taken no for an answer) 

They had a very nice space both inside and outside. We sat inside on the side with an open bar. We ordered fish and chips, Meze sampler (hummus, tabbouleh, tzatziki, falafel, pita), moussaka, chicken kabob. Everything was fresh and good. Service was friendly and attentive.

The name is Troia Southbank. It's located on Belvedere Rd. behind County Hall (not the waterfront side of the building as the maps send you).  We had a reservation and we were sat right away. We started with hummus and tabbouleh with fresh pita bread that was hot and delicious. They offered sliced cucumbers for our GF friend. We ordered the chicken kebabs with rice and salad. One person ordered Adana kebab with rice and salad. Everyone enjoyed their meal. Many gluten free options. At least half the meal was GF. Would I eat here again? Yes!!

Excellent Near Eastern/Middle Eastern food on London's south bank. My large party and I had a variety of dishes that were all stellar. Chicken kabobs were tender and soft, chicken kofte skewers (my favorite) were also super moist and flavorful with a perfect blend of seasoning, and the tabbouleh was right on point. The only thing that I wasn't a massive fan of was the cheese berag - tasted more like deep fried cheese taquitos rather than the soft and flakey morsels with which I'm more familiar. 

Easy to access from all of London's more touristy areas; spacious and comfortable inside. Service was solid but not overly exuberant.

The restaurant is called Troia Southbank!!! Great Turkish food and service. Right around the London Eye, these American foodies were hungry! We started with an appetizer Imam Bayildi with roasted eggplant, chickpeas and bell peppers that was great to dip our pita bread in. Wife ordered Adana Kebab and I ordered the Iskander that is one of my favorites from my time in Turkiye. The Ambiance was great, with country music for some reason, but ok. The decor is pleasant and modern, and the servers are attentive but slightly timid. Overall, I do recommend it for the authenticity of Turkish flavors!
