Exceptional dining experience in Ilford

“The venue was amazing; the food and staff were good. The portion size was a bit small, but everyone enjoyed the food. The ambiance added to the experience, with soft lighting and tasteful decorations that created a warm and inviting atmosphere.”

“We had a wonderful experience during our visit. Teja was our server and she was incredibly friendly, attentive, and welcoming from the moment we walked in. Nayeem, the chef, prepared a fantastic döner kebab – perfectly seasoned, tender, and full of flavor. You can tell a lot of care and skill goes into the food here. Overall, great service, delicious food, and a warm atmosphere. Highly recommended!”

“Best falafel wraps I have had for awhile. Very filling, thin wrap and just right and the fresh filling ingredients. 5* Will definitely be ordering again. Thank you keep the mission going.”

“This charming cafe, nestled within the park, offers a delightful halal breakfast. I have had the pleasure of visiting on several occasions and have consistently been impressed. The staff are highly attentive and unfailingly provide excellent service. It is quickly becoming my preferred spot for breakfast.”

“Great pub with good atmosphere and great friendly staff”

“I had a wonderful dining experience at this establishment. The food was exceptionally delicious, with each dish freshly prepared and full of flavor. We were pleasantly surprised to receive complimentary baklava, which was a delightful touch. The pricing was very reasonable, especially considering the high quality of the food. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, with tasteful decor that added to the overall charm of the restaurant. Additionally, the facilities, including the restroom, were impeccably clean. The staff were extremely friendly and attentive, contributing greatly to our positive experience. I left very satisfied and would not hesitate to recommend this restaurant to friends and family. I look forward to returning in the future.”

“A place I will never stopped getting tired of ordering takeouts in most weekends for many, many years. What great about this place is most of their foods are made fresh and not store brought. Their wings are succulent when straight out of the fryer.”

“We had such a wonderful experience at this restaurant today! The food was absolutely delicious — full of flavor, fresh, and beautifully presented. 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!”

“The jelabis are tasty. We had veg food like samosa, mirchi bajji, aloo bonda. The taste is very good. Good hospitality. Price is reasonable.”

“Here is an average Joe review. The energy if the place is great, you will feel at home being here. Lovely design of the interior and staff are super friendly. Looking at the menu I felt 1 slice of toast wasn't the best for a full English but, when the plate arrived I was more than happy there was just one, the portion was big. You will not walk out of here hungry. A lot of people come through the place to eat in and to take away. Prices are good for the portion if not on the low side. Omelette at £9 and full English £9,50. The only minor downside is the cigarette smoke coming into the restaurant from the people smoking outside, otherwise excellent.”

“Came here for drinks with family and friends later jist before christmas- great drinks and atmosphere, food looked delicious but I never ate anything but my cousin said it was very good pub food. Second time around coming here, will definitely come back when back in town again! Great local spot!”

“Amazing food great hospitality. Everything was top notch.”

“Great food! I often buy their vegetarian items and really enjoy them. However, when I ask if their chicken or mutton is halal, they say it is, but I haven’t seen any halal certification displayed in the shop. It would be reassuring if they could show their halal certification in the future.”

“Been going here since I went to school 25 years ago. Very friendly people and the best chips around. Their chilli sauce is awesome too.”

“Been a customer ever since they opened (five years) and they’ve never disappointed. Their recent fiery burger is genuinely one of the best burgers i’ve had. Their rice is alright, could work on the taste, make it a bit flavourful. Their full chicken is a go-to, extremely flavourful. Also, their staff is always friendly, especially the store manager, she always goes an extra mile to do more than has to be done.”

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

“Great food and great service. The new decor is amazing and inviting. The mixed sheesh grill platter was cooked to perfection. And would also suggest the calamari. Will definitely recommend.”

“Papa John’s pizza is always tasty and fresh. The crust is soft, the cheese is rich, and the garlic sauce adds the perfect flavour. Delivery is usually on time and the staff are friendly. Sometimes the toppings could be spread more evenly, but overall it’s great for a quick pizza night.”

“Someone suggested this restaurant but we came half heartedly but all the dishes were a surprise to us. It was quite delicious and yummy. It's worth its money.”

“First time here with family and we all loved it. We came when it was rather quiet. All the staff were extremely friendly and attentive. All our courses was delicious. The restaurant was clean. Parking available in a nearby carpark free in the evening. Praying facilities also available. Staff also gave free brownie favour to the kids. Will return again.”

“Food and service have improved from before,the new owners have done a good job, the food was delicious . Lovepreet k provided service with a smile. Jeeara chicken and paneer for a starter, bombay potatoes,lamb, and vegetable kofta in spinach for mains with naans and roti. The food was fresh, and the portions were a good size.”

“Very good clean packaging! Great customer service! Good portions and FRESH salads! Not soggy and old salads like most places give. The nihari was amazing, the roti and naan were nice too. Their chicken curry is amazing! All of their curries are really nice, best Pakistani food in the area! The biryani was nice but tasted a bit dry and I only got one small piece of meat which was disappointing. I’ll order again because the food was still really nice!”

“Delicious Pakistani food without the high oil content often found elsewhere. The atmosphere and service was excellent too. Loved our experience and food. Portions are generous so took back some doggy bags.”

“Everything good but faiza the girl work overthere is really rude to customer showing attitude just tell her to be nice and polite to customers as no business can run without customers and staff is there to give good service to peoples not to show them attitude. What will you lose by being nice to customers and we are regular customers we almost come everyday, so just noticed this. Otherwise everything is really good from taste to costumer service from other two girls.”

“This is my third time going in here and I always had good time and vibes, the staff and the manager are very friendly and professional, We went also in group during the football game(England and Spain) and the servings was still good even if the pub was full, I recommend the chips and the chicken, there is also lots of space outside in the "garden" and inside. Recommend to everyone”

“*5/5 Stars* "I recently had the pleasure of dining here and was blown away by the incredible atmosphere! The decor was stylish and inviting, creating a warm and welcoming ambiance. But what truly stole the show was the dessert menu - every bite was a delight! Rich, decadent, and expertly crafted, our treats were the perfect ending to a wonderful meal. The service was also exceptional. Our server was attentive, knowledgeable, and provided top-notch service with a smile. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a great dining experience!"”

“Had to come away for work. Long story short on the back end of a 16 hour day absolutely starving hungry we found this little gem. The food was awesome and the hospitality of the owner was second to none I would seriously advise if in the area give it a go. Really lovely people”

“We went there around 6 pm weekday. We were first to go , all the items were fresh and hot. Chicken tikka, sheekh kebab , fish fry , chicken wings , haleem were hot , spicy , fresh, no bad smell at all. Nalli Nihari was good, lamb karahi was more like Bengali curry but the taste was superb. Chicken biryani was also awesome with some excellent flavours. My family with kids thoroughly enjoyed this delicious food. Compare to Royal nawab , items are less but I can vouch for the taste which is better than Royal nawab. Adult 18 pounds , kids under 10 is 9 pounds.”

“I went in this restaurant many times, the food is good I can recommend the hamburger with chips , also I want to say a big Thank you to Tony Barbu always very kind and smiling, very professional staff, the prices are good, the place is amazing , after lunch or dinner you can also enjoy a walk in the park around the lake”
