Lebanese enlightenment

Beyond expectations
Hidden away from the bustle of Oxford St, Maroush is a smart, fun and lively restaurant perfect for cosy dinners or big groups alike. On my first visit, I had never tried Lebanese food before but there are definitely things that you will recognise - namely falafel (which are soooo much better than supermarket versions), shawarma (chicken or lamb kebabs but with actual meat) and Tabbouleh.
The menu is vast, which is the perfect excuse to keep going back to try everything, you will discover favourites each time (Moutabal, Kibbeh and Baklawa for dessert - mmmm!) Service is friendly and efficient, prices are standard London.
You might even be able to spot a good old D-lister, I once saw Uri Geller eating in here (just after his stint in I'm a Celebrity) and apparently Paris Hilton has been to the Knightsbridge branch! On top of all this, they sometimes also have live entertainment in the form of a singer or a belly dancer...
