“akshay he is very good customer adviser! top class service, highly recommended restaurant”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Absolutely phenomenal! I ordered the beef chow mein and chicken balls from Greedy Panda — and honestly, they were the best I’ve ever had. The beef was tender, packed with flavour, and the noodles were perfectly cooked — not greasy, just full of rich, savoury goodness. And the chicken balls? Crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, with a golden batter that was spot on. You can tell they use quality ingredients and care about what they’re serving. This place is a hidden gem — I’ll definitely be ordering again. Highly recommend!”

“Lovely atmosphere created by the one and only Neil. He genuinely brings light to the place. Thank you so much!!”

“So good, i took the brunch set for £9.50 (there are even cheaper options) and i was full, the food was tasty i recommend you this place and the lady was really nice :))”

““Fantastic lunch spot! The food portions were generous, flavours spot-on, and the shisha was smooth and well-prepared. Staff were friendly and attentive. Definitely coming back.” I really love it”

“Ordered online and the app said my first payment didn’t go through when I went and ordered a second time gentleman called to ask if I meant to do that which I said no, then promptly cancelled my first order and got a refund. Pizza was also good.”

“I ordered through Uber, the food was immaculate! We ordered the buy one get one free ‘hot one burger’ with American fries and cheesy jalapeño, came to around £22. I love spicy food and the burger was just perfect! My burger looked like the picture they have on the menu. Fully satisfied with the flavours, worth every single penny. If I could eat burgers all day this would be the place I would order from.”

“Always the best friendly service and delicious coffee!”

“Great food and friendly staff. Even when I asked for take away they topped up my Greek salad. If I’m ever in barking again will pop in.”

“A real taste of the Swahili Coast in East London. Perfectly grilled mishkaki (skewered meats). Prices are reasonable given the quality. Overall, this Halal food restaurant is a must visit for adventurous food lovers or anyone craving an authentic experience.”

“One of the BestTurkish kebabs I have eaten the guy named Osman is really helpful and really honest man if you live in East time don't go anywhere else come here”

“It is the best GDK branch I’ve ever been to. Very professional and polite staff especially Ambreen who took my order, she is very kind and knows how to deal with customers. Food was well cooked as well.”

“It was my first time dining at Restaurant Albina, I loved how authentic the restaurant was inside and how cosy it felt. I was greeted by the waitress who was very friendly and helped me with the menu as I couldn’t decide from all the tasty options! I ended up having the chicken/pasta soup with a warm bread bun. The soup was delicious, a clear broth with lots of flavour - and I loved how light but filling it was. The bun was the perfect add on. For dessert I had the cherry dumplings - I will definitely be coming back for those! Overall I had a really great meal, the food and atmosphere is very comforting and gives a lovely family/friendly vibe. Thank you Albina for a wonderful meal! I will definitely be returning!”

“I recently visited and was absolutely blown away! From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was warm and inviting, with beautiful decor and a cozy vibe. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, making sure we had everything we needed. The food? Simply divine! Every dish was cooked to perfection, bursting with flavor, and beautifully presented. I’ll definitely be coming back!”

“I’m from Tanzania but loved the authentic African ambiance. Felt right at home. The food was delicious and the service from uncle and auntie was homely. There was a group of people next to us and I loved their energy. Afrobeats was playing in the background ✨ had a lovely time!”

“From the receptionist taken of order to the delivery of the meals in relatively hot conditions considering the distance travelled were first class services. The shredded chicken chow mein,the BBQ spare, and the king prawn fried rice were full of aroma and tasted so delicious. This restaurant is our newfound first to ring when it comes to the Chinese restaurant option. I must say that the delivery person was such a lovely aged man, full of friendly face patient,energetic,and a gentle voice. Respect. Thanks to the chef. Keep the cooking arts vibrant.”

“Honestly the best cafe in London! Star quality food, the chef is simply amazing! The staff here are truly the best, every time I come here with my family they always make me feel so welcome I can’t recommend enough.”

“Just had lunch and wow — the food was so good! The mix grill was perfectly cooked, super juicy, and full of flavor. You could tell it was fresh off the grill with that perfect smoky taste. The Charsi Chicken Karahi was another standout — spicy, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. The chicken was melt-in-your-mouth tender, and the sauce was so delicious that we couldn’t resist dipping the naan into every last bit. The service was warm and welcoming. I’ll definitely be coming back— highly recommended!”

“There are pubs and then there's this chain of beautiful east london pubs, the Boleyn Tavern and the Leyton Engineer plus others I wish to find. All the decor has been reconditioned to the style of its original condition more than a hundred years ago.”

“£5 for three filling omelette with chips and beans is a good price. Swift nice service and overall good place for good meal, for not so London's price. Definitely recommended to visit and try.”

“Wow wow wow .. went into this place for a bacon roll and noticed some chicken on the griddle that looked amazing and straight away changed my mind and went for daily special . It was amazing and the size of the meal was crazy large . The chicken was perfectly seasoned the rice was cooked to perfection and the salad had a great dressing .. all I can say was this meal was delicious and perfect. Definitely see you again and thank you”

“Amazing traditional Pakistani food. The service is excellent, the owner (We know him as uncle) has the best hospitality and manners. When uncles not there, his boys, Muazzam, Mukarram and Azam make sure the guests are looked after. 10 out of 10 for me!!”

“I ordered a Dourada that almost made me cry. I can not wait to go back again. UPDATE. Lamb smells to urine, and portions don't look so big as before, when I ordered meat.”

“Great restaurant serving South-East Asian cuisine - predominantly Vietnamese, but also some Thai options, Singaporean, and others. Really satisfying, homely meals. Good service and extensive menu. I would love to visit again. This restaurant earns an extra star from me as the portion-sizes are quite substantial.”

“The food is so good that it reminded me of my homeland. I ordered creamy chicken and it was something else, and it comes with bread and butter. The butter is another story, it was the one that reminded me of my homeland. The final one, the desert that we ordered, Trilige, was soft and juicy, incredible!”

“Another great meal at the Galleon Cafe. It’s was so much food I had to climb over it. Delicious”

“Fresh food. Fairly priced. Friendly staff. Great variety of food. Just what I needed.”
