“ Yummiest beef rib sandwich! Tots are also really nice! Highly recommend these 2 items. We were seated in a very nice booth upstairs and served by Inaaya, she was lovely and regularly checked in to see we were doing ok and our food was as we liked. Very nice atmosphere. There’s also a multi-faith area available for those that need it 3 such a nice addition! ”
“ Tried the Philly cheese steak. It was expensive for the quality and quantity. I mean, it's 10 or something when it's not very large and it's not like it has a lot of meat inside. You can get a sandwich for that price that's full of meat. In terms of taste it's very very good. The place is not very busy but orders take way too long to be ready. It looks relatively new but I get the feeling it won't last. It was practically empty and my order was very late. Can't imagine what will happen if there's five customers in there. Hopefully things turn around because I really liked the Philly. Prices are unacceptable though. ”
“ Brilliant surprise, honestly I didn't expect this quality especially that I walked in around midnight.. first of all, very friendly service. I tried the rib sandwich, which was very unique and tasty, the rib meat was juicy and flavourful, the grilled burger had a nice char, the brioche buttery and toasted, great sandwich overall. The surprise was the skin-on fries as it reminded me McD fries from the early 2000s: hot, fresh, crispy, fluffy and super flavourful. Last but not least the house made fizzy drinks, refreshing and tastes like a luxury mocktail, not just a soda. As a bonus, I got 3 extra dipping sauces, and the drink was free (the have a little spin-the-wheel at the cashier that gave me the free drink). Overall, I'd choose this over shake shack or five guys any day. ”
“ I have been waiting a month since this place opened to try the food here and it did not disappoint! The place was very clean, had 3 floors of seating space and a prayer room big enough for at least 2-3 people. We showed up just before closing and the staff were still very helpful and friendly too. Everything was hot and fresh. The wings were seasoned well and very crispy, even the saucy mango habanero ones which was surprising. The hot dog was just as I expected, however next time I will try the caramelised onions with it. The mac and cheese was delicious and I loved the crispy coating of cheese on top. The fries were nice but the tater tots were my favourite, they tasted like mini hash browns. For the drink we took a couple of shakes, the strawberry cheese cake and the choclatier. Both were true to the name and very nice. I would highly recommend this place. ”
“ Visited this restaurant on a whim before departing London. Impressed by the clean, friendly environment. Naveed was exceptionally helpful and kind. The food was amazing and incredibly fresh! Highly recommend this establishment! ”
“ Food on point , customer service 10/10 the burger was so tasty we ordered bunch of different things and it met our expectations I would highly recommend it . ”
“ Halal reasonable prices good food Good atmosphere and clean environment. Love the theme and interior and great that it's open late. Menu is good and well organised making it easy to pick with a variety of burgers and desserts and drinks. We waited a fair amount of time for the food to come but it all came together one by one so it's always good when we're not just sitting watching the first person eating. They did however forget ALL of our drinks... So we sat there eating without drinks and could hear the staff having to be reminded to make and serve our drinks. The owner himself is a pleasant guy and runs the place well. Food was good and tasty and is something I'd definitely be back for. One thing we all noticed was how big the burgers looked on the menu (looking huge and tall) but when it arrived it looked a bit flat and almost half the size. One of us actually questioned if there were even 2 patties in there which he took apart to see there was a but since the burger looks so flat in comparison to the image on the menu, we weren't sure. Overall food was good and filling, didn't even have space for dessert but definitely something we'll try next time. Milk cake needs to be on the menu for sure. The prices were also decent at a glance (I didn't get too much of a chance to look over the menu of the items and each price). A classic burger, sweet potato fries and a slushy I paid roughly 15. My ideal changes (obviously we don't live in an ideal world) would be -if the total cost for what I was given was slightly cheaper perhaps 12.50... -The drinks were served on time as the food (somehow canned drinks were missed, I understand slushies but canned?) -Burgers actually looked as big as the pictures Otherwise, good place Will be back ”
