Dining in Soho, London: Berenjak’s standout experience
London’s Soho is famed for memorable evenings, and the video from Aziz Family Official zeroes in on one name: Berenjak. Located in the centre of the action, the restaurant sets the tone immediately—inside, diners are met with an atmosphere that feels reminiscent of Tehran, as the group comments while arriving.
While the video focuses on the offer (how you can effectively see a “£100 off” outcome), it also shows why Berenjak makes the trip worthwhile: the food looks beautifully presented, the flavours sound bold and comforting, and the portion variety helps a table share and explore.
What you can order at Berenjak (as seen in the video)
The group shares a spread that highlights the restaurant’s Middle Eastern-inspired menu. Here are the key dishes mentioned and shown:
- Aubergine with whey and caramelised onions — a creamy, savoury starter that drew immediate reactions for both taste and texture.
- Shirazi salad — enjoyed as a fresh, vibrant accompaniment.
- Fried onions, aubergine, and fluffy flatbread — described as something you “can’t go wrong” with.
- Saffron rice — served alongside the shareable plates and mixed in at the table.
- Chicken and lamb — both included in the meal; the group notes the “juice underneath” and calls it “absolutely delicious.”
For a group, the overall idea is clear: order a mix of dips, salads, breads and mains so everyone can taste widely—then enjoy the dining credit effect that the video highlights.
How the “£100 off” saving happened
The savings story in the video is tied to payment and an American Express Platinum dining credit. The video explains that the team’s total bill came to £151, and that figure included a £20 service charge, described as discretionary. The video also states you can get it removed.
After applying the dining credit, the group indicates they ended up paying £51 for the bill—framed as a “£100 off” result.
American Express Platinum dining credits (as described in the video)
According to the video, the American Express Platinum card includes £200 worth of dining credit each year, split into £100 every 6 months. Berenjak—both in Soho and in Borough—is mentioned as one of the restaurants where you can spend that dining credit.
The video concludes that for a group of five people, £51 could be the effective amount paid—called out as “bargain buckets”.
Paying in the restaurant: what the video shows
The video includes a glimpse of how payment is handled at the table. It shows a heavy metal card displaying Berenjak, alongside instructions to scan to pay at table 13. The group shares a delighted reaction to the process and the overall experience.
Why Berenjak in Soho is worth planning around
If you’re looking for a London meal that feels like more than just dinner, Berenjak stands out in the video for three reasons: the vibrant presentation of dishes (from aubergine dips to rice and mains), the inviting, characterful interior, and the possibility—via the dining credit described—to dramatically reduce the bill.
Whether you’re visiting for a special occasion or simply want to make your budget go further, this is the kind of London night you can plan with confidence.
