Souk Medina's exotic Moorish setting, complete with belly dancers, makes it a popular venue to enjoy North African cuisine in the heart of London. Located in Shorts Gardens, the restaurant is minutes away from Covent Garden and Leicester Square tube stations. 
 
Traditional fare of grilled halloumi cheese, falafel with tahini, stuffed vine leaves and lamb sausage open the meal to be followed by chicken cous cous, tagine kefta, beef with French beans, duck with apple and cinnamon sauce or lamb cutlets. The seafood selection includes grilled sea bass with garlic and herbs as well as mixed fish tagine with tomato and herbs. The restaurant's signature Souk paella consists of saffron rice with chicken, lamb sausage and mixed seafood could be equally satisfying. A 'feast' set menu offers a variety of dishes including tagine of chicken with saffron and herbs and cous cous with root vegetables, finishing with baklava and mint tea.

The drinks list with champagne cocktails, martinis and signature cocktails of thirsty camel, juicy Marrakech and Ali Baba, as well as a good selection of wines and beers, sets the tone for a merry evening.
