  • "The food portions were enough and food seemed nice, however seemed to give me food poisoning the next day."

  • "The food is not fresh and poorly cooked/microwaved!"

Cons:

  • "Would have given 5 stars if we weren't asked to move from our table (before actually paying) just to give the table to another group who had just arrived looking for a table."
  • "The owner was hostile and rude."
  • "One of the staff seemed annoyed when I asked if I could alter my starter slightly."

  • "The servers were really friendly, but pressured to leave a review and confronted me when not happy about the review."

Atmosphere

  • "The atmosphere was awesome, people are happy."

  • "Restaurant also had a quiet, awkward atmosphere."
  • "When asked if they do Halal food the waiter was very sarcastic and patronising!!"
  • "The toilets need looking at and need to be cleaned at regular intervals."
  • "Avoid!!!"
  • "I don’t know whether this food just doesn’t travel well (we ordered on Deliveroo) but everything was overcooked and bland."

Pricing

Pros:

  • "Great pricing, excellent performance and service."
  • "The prices are extremely reasonable."
  • "Great value for money, the potions are filling and the food is tasty."
  • "Very reasonably priced for both portion size and for London."
  • "The lunch option is perfect portion size and very good value for money."

  • "We came here for a lunch and spent just under ten pounds for two courses (including a soft drink). Unbelievable value for food of this quality."

Cons:

  • "Well food was ok, price was NOT way too expensive."
  • "Not sure it would have been worth it without the big discount, though. It was nice, but it wasn't special."
  • "I mean If you don't want to do the full discount why you show it on the fork?"
  • "It cost a little bit extra but worth it."
