Fine dining experience in Ilford

“Our Pakistani friend took us to Haweli restaurant in Ilford for dinner. We had lamb and chicken curry, lamb biryani, various kebabs, it was delicious, and our first time having Pakistani food, we all loved it. Sumbul provided excellent service. She was very polite and hospitable.”

“We went on Wednesday evening, we were greeted with a smile and showed to our table. The staff were extremely friendly and polite, and guide you with the menu. The setting is very nice and parking is easy to find. The food was quite tasty. We got the Calamari, Wings and the Prawn Tempura for starters. For the mains we got the lamb chops, wagyu surf and turf, wagyu sirloin and the wagyu t-bone steak.. and we enjoyed our food. Would I go back there again? YES! Our steaks were amazing and full of flavour,the customer service was amazing, and the overall experience was very personal. So yes, gets a 5 outta 5. Good hidden gem.”

All the dishes are so tasty, made in traditional way by kitchen staff. The restaurant decor is like a dream, everything is nice and pristine inside. And the last but not the least, the prices are affordable for any pocket. Many thanks and keep it up :)”

“Had a nice meal here for my Aunts birthday. It was quite busy but not noisy. The fixed price lunch menu was good value. The a la carte looked a bit pricey! I had the ribs my aunt had the salmon. We were served by the delightful Alissa and really enjoyed the food and the ambience. Recommended.”

“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.”

“Evya Turkish Grill & Meze Bar is a fantastic spot for anyone craving authentic Turkish flavors.

The service is outstanding; the staff are attentive, friendly, and quick to make you feel welcome. The decor adds to the experience with a warm, inviting ambiance and tasteful Turkish touches that make the space feel cozy yet stylish. On top of all that, the prices are very reasonable, making it a great value for the quality and service provided. Highly recommend for a delightful dining experience!”

“Came here because we were at the water park down the road and needed somewhere to eat. The restaurant there is closed on Mondays and Tuesdays. Sweet 1ne had the highest ratings in the area, for good reason. Very tasty food, and very friendly staff. Even the gym guy was very friendly (it's inside the gym). Highly recommend!”

“The best grill food ever in Redbridge! I get food from here every week, even though there are loads of other places in Gants Hill. All the brothers who work there are amazing – well-behaved, hardworking, and always smiling. The food is top quality, and the service makes the experience even better. Highly recommended!”

“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.”

“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.”

“Good local Chinese restaurants are on the wane so thank the stars for Mandarin Palace. The food is delicious and the portions are very generous indeed. The service is prompt and courteous. There is parking apparently round the back. The toilets are clean but in need of refurbishment. Celebrating 50 years so 15 per cent off (dining only) up to 31 July 2024! Expensive but worth it. We went to celebrate my daughters 18th. The portions are HUGE so if ordering set menu perhaps order for one less person.”

“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.”

“Alam has served us very nicely in the restaurant. Every time we come here we always get very welcome and my most favorite dish is chicken corma .They always make it nicely with care.”

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

“The shop is very neat and clean customer service is always nice and friendly food is the best .I really appreciate and recommend.”

“We just celebrated my son's 18th Bday here. We been living in this neighbourhood for over a decade and we never visited the pub as it had a bad reputation but since new management took over and the pub been refurbished it looks truly amazing. Great food menu. Great affordable variety of drinks. The service is impeccable and very friendly staff. My husband is a wheelchair user, the pub has wheelchair access but you got to put the foldable ramp down yourself what didn't bother us as we do that daily at home anyway. Overall a 5* pub very clean and tidy... And they do karaoke on Thursdays aswell. A place I highly recommend.”

“Chef Pizza never disappoints. Their pizza is absolutely delicious – the crust is perfectly crispy on the outside and soft inside, just the way I like it. the service is quick and efficient. Great vibes, great food – highly recommended!”
