• "This place used to be so good but now it is ridiculously priced and just average food."
• "As a regular customer, I’m very disappointed with my recent visits. While the food and customer service were both exceptional as usual, the prices have increased significantly in recent times."
• "I wouldn't go again and neither do I recommend. Food is good though. When I asked for a can of drink was told cans are for takeaway only and we have to order a bottle. Clearly money making scheme only."
• "Pricing is absolutely diabolical, 2 young girls that served us were lovely, Manager - Ibrahim, not very helpful in the slightest, kept going round in circles when it came to asking for water and pricing… Food was OK…. not really worth it for the money, especially in PRESTON… Wouldn’t recommend to others"
• "They have increased their prices extorionatingly high. The food is nice but not worth the price they are charging. 2 person end up spending £70 easily."
• "Visited the restaurant for the first and last time today. The restaurant is deceitful and chooses to essentially steal from their customers. The price that is listed on the menu is not the price they charge, the restaurant charges an additional 20% 'food tax'."
• "A group of 11 people went for iftari (breaking. Fast) and were charged an extortionate amount of £3.40 a water bottle. I asked the manager to have at least a jug of water complimentary as 90% of the attendees were there to break their fast during the month of Ramadan. Only to be told that he hadn’t made the rules. After spending best part of £320 (no choice as we were already there) safe to say won’t be going back there again."
