Most Disliked
Some diners mention the cash-only payment policy can be inconvenient, especially in a digital age where many prefer card payments. This can present a challenge for those unfamiliar with this quirk. Additionally, during peak times, a longer wait can occur. Customers often express hope for more efficient service during these busy hours, especially on Thursday and Friday evenings.
On occasion, the sound level in the restaurant can rise due to high traffic, which some might find distracting when trying to enjoy their meal. Although the atmosphere is lively and energetic, a few diners have mentioned it can feel overcrowded during peak dining hours, impacting their overall experience.

The food was simply AMAZING … the best kebab platter I have ever had … and the hospitality shown by the owner Zozy was wonderful .. she was super friendly and provided us with wonderful service. Would most def go here again as the food was just too good… it was packed with flavour and absolutely food coma worthy … the meat platter is drool worthy and the fries are the best I’ve probably wver had. ( crunchy salty and just amazing )
