Harden's survey result
Summary
“Prepare to be blown away by the flavours at this tiny spot in Spitalfields” – its “absolutely brilliant vegetarian and vegan”, Middle Eastern-inspired dishes “truly sing”, delivering “a taste explosion” such that “carnivores will not miss the meat” (“the charred oyster mushroom skewers are stunning… thinking about the labneh, hummus and laffa bread makes me salivate!”). Having opened it in 2019, Marc Summers launched a 50-cover sibling in Soho in July 2022 on the former site of Vasco & Piero’s Pavilion (see also), complete with open kitchen and counter-style dining. The chef is rising star Helen Graham.
For 32 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).

Bubala Soho Restaurant Diner Reviews
"A charming, friendly and stylish restaurant with some of the most outstanding food I’ve seen in London. Unpretentious, thoughtful and prepared to perfection. "
"Really enjoyed our meal at Bubala. We decided there would be too much food if we went for the tasting menu and therefore ordered a la carte. The recommendations made by our waitress were excellent especially the celeriac."
"Got a last minute table at the bar - perfect lunch"
