Authentic tastes in Ilford

“The food here was absolutely top notch everything was full of flavour. My favourite was the Lahmacun & Adana Kofte soft, juicy and meaty just the way it should be. The Lahmacun was thin and filled with toppings. Everything here was really enjoyable and it’s the perfect spot if you need a Turkish and wanna go with the family.”

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Had a great experience at Sahara Grill and wanted to give special mention to Abdur Rahman, who served us. He was very professional and, for a trainee, did an excellent job. He was attentive in a calm, subtle way, checking in on us during the meal and making sure we were comfortable without interrupting the experience. Little thoughtful touches showed his awareness and good service, which really helped us feel relaxed. Food-wise, everything was enjoyable, but the Angus short rib was a standout – absolutely a hit and easily the highlight of the meal. Overall, a very positive experience. Credit to Abdur Rahman and the team.”

“This Caribbean shop has become my go-to, especially in the winter. I usually order from them on Uber and the food just tastes so homey and comforting. I honestly buy their soup every couple of days because it’s that good and it’s the kind of meal that warms you right up. I’ve never had an issue with the quantity either. They’re always generous with the dumplings, potatoes, carrots, sweetcorn, and chicken. The flavours are amazing every single time. I’ve nearly tried nearly all of the food items by now”

“Andra chilli chicken is very tasty.. definitely recommended.”

“Nasir was one of the most exceptional customer service experiences I've had in recent years. Welcoming and cheerful. The food was great, it could have been hotter, but it's flavour and texture can't be faulted.”

“We had a great experience. Great Turkish food and insane value.”

“It's a big store and very well kept. Very close to the train station ( Ilford station)”

“I had the pleasure of meeting Kas and getting my hair and make up done by her. Kas was amazing. She listened to everything I said about how I wanted my hair and make up done. She did an amazing job and I was very very happy with the end result. On top of being talented Kas was very warm and welcoming which makes it all even better ❤️”

“We ordered biryani for my son's birthday, and it tasted absolutely delicious. It was mildly spiced, making it perfect for kids. The tandoori chicken was tender and perfectly cooked.”

“Extremely disappointed with this place. I chose this place based on the good reviews, but everything arrived stone cold. The chips were stale and tasted as if they’d been fried in old oil. The shawarma wraps were also a huge let down, the sauces were so tangy and overpowering that they completely ruined the flavour. Honestly the worst shawarma I’ve ever had. I spent £41 and couldn’t enjoy any part of the meal. Definitely won’t be ordering again. Save your £ don't bother.”

“Heard good things and it didn't disappoint. Pizza made fresh in front of us and tasted lovely! Would definitely recommend if you're in the area”

Food is delicious and nothing is too much trouble if you want something a little different like paneer chicken.Staff are so friendly and helpful . Delivery is excellent with the food still lovely and hot. If you eat in the service is first class”

“Single-handedly the best Chinese restaurant I've had the pleasure of ordering from. The service, food, and delivery times are a exemplary. My partner and I haven't been able to even contemplate ordering elsewhere since our first oder (and we're quite a few orders deep now!). Compliments to the staff across the board, we have, and shall continue to sing your praises and recommend you to our friends.”

The service was impressively fast, and everything was spotless with great hygiene. A special mention to Veronica, who served us ,she was incredibly friendly, full of laughter, and made us feel so comfortable throughout our visit. Her warm personality really added to the whole dining experience. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for great food, excellent service, and a welcoming atmosphere!”

“Amazing service, environment, quality and quantity of food.everything was topnotch. I am now really fan of Their chicken corn soup. Trust me this place is a hidden jem.i live in gants hill so typically tried more or less all the restaurants near by.i went bahubali to try south indian dosa which i never tried but they don't serve any more their versatile menu amazed me & my wife.only bit downside was fried rice but its not noticeable which i already mentioned to chef.Their cutleries service style is really good. Only suggestion i can give during operation time close the door and turn on ac and air freshener will be really helpful also if there is wet wipes option available will be extra poit for noticeable. As a comnercialcatering company executive i would like to say if you doing same quality and quantity in business bahubali will rise soon. I forgot to ask the guy and his colleague who served us,they are very helpful and professional. Authorities give them a rise for excellent service. Lots of love and best of luck for the team.”

“Very impressed! Came with friends, we were not sure where to go that evening midweek, booked a table. The place was pretty empty on a Tuesday evening so we wondered how the food would be. However, the food was amazing. Lovely menu, not the usual boring Indian dishes. Fancy names for everything including drinks! It’s a fine dining place after all. We ordered a different starters that were spicy and nice on the taste palette. Main dishes were very delicious too and we were too full otherwise would have tried desserts too. It is well decorated and you can take loads of instagrammable photos there! I definitely recommend this place, whether for a date or just to have a night out with friends!”

“Love there battered sausage and chips. Really can't stay away from this fish shop for to long. I really enjoy battered sausage and chips and I will next time try something new it wouldn't shock me if the fish and chicken and pie are just as beautiful. The staff are quick at dealing with orders and always friendly got great communication skills the chef is blatantly working hard cooking up peoples orders it's in a great location as well.”

“Very good Quality and service. Food very very tasty. Dosha must try. Highly recommend”

“It's not the biggest restaurant but the atmosphere is good and the customer service is excellent. The food tastes great and the portion size is reasonable. If you are into spicy food I would recommend ordering the vindaloo or Madras (chicken or lamb) available”
