Customer Review Summary
Kebabs draw the most attention, with several reviewers praising the doner and the Hurst Cross Special, a naan piled with doner, chicken tikka, lamb tikka and seekh kebab, along with fried onions and thick cut meat. The chicken curry and pizza also get mentioned favorably, and a few describe the staff as helpful and prices as reasonable. Close behind, though, sits a recurring complaint about inconsistency: multiple reviewers say kebabs they once relied on have tasted bad enough to throw away, one describing curries with uncooked chicken and little spice, another calling a doner dried out with no chilli sauce or salad. A beef burger and a lamb wrap drew separate complaints about quality and too much onion. One reviewer, who noted a food allergy and long term disability, reports finding cross contaminated salad items in an order meant to be plain lettuce only, while praising the delivery driver's speed and the phone staff's manner.
