Customer Review Summary
Steak sizzlers on hot plates are the main draw, with reviewers praising the sirloin steak sizzler for its flavor and noting the food stays hot to the end. Close behind, several describe friendly staff, a manager who looks after guests, and a group iftar that ran smoothly. Even one critical diner called the lamb chop starter tasty. Others report the opposite experience with the same sizzlers. Complaints center on small portions of meat padded out with rice, veg, noodles and chips, cheap frozen-tasting chips, and a burnt, carelessly presented plate. One diner found the T bone steak chewy and rubbery, and the replacement arrived with white fat on the edges, so the meal was left unfinished. Service criticism includes missing items, food arriving without cutlery, a lamb shank served on mashed potato, tables packed close together despite empty ones elsewhere, and a flat cola. A couple mention smoke from the plates, weekend crowds and a slightly expensive feel. In one account, the manager replaced the steak only after the diner insisted he try a piece and see how hard it was to cut.

“The food here is amazing with plenty of options to choose ranging from kids meal to multiple meat combinations served on sizzling plates. They do have free car parking (just ask staff of manager for the parking direction). The staff here is friendly and manager (Sarfaraz) takes care of each customers requirements. I can suggest that this restaurant is among the top restaurants in Bolton locale with good food and hospitality.”

“Best place for sizzling steak dishes. The food remains hot to the end due to hot plate. May be a little on the expensive side. Very busy at the weekend and there may be long wait. There is no option of booking a table in advance”

“Had another fantastic experience at Sizzling Palate and I just have to give a special shoutout to Sarfraz, the manager. He truly goes above and beyond every single time. From the moment you walk in, you’re greeted with a warm smile that instantly makes you feel welcome. Nothing is ever too much trouble for him—he’s attentive, friendly and genuinely cares about making sure every guest has a great experience. It’s rare to come across someone so consistently dedicated and positive. Great food is one thing, but service like this is what keeps people coming back. Thank you, Sarfraz, for always making our visits so enjoyable!”

“Gone to sizzling palette after ages. Food was nice. We paid but stayed sitting at the table for around 15 mins. When we left and wa saying bye to friends, the olde guy came running out asking if we have paid and we said we had. We then crossed the road and he’s come out shouting saying we not paid. Couple of us went back and he said they couldn’t find the receipt but then one of the workers found the receipt and told him. It was really rude the way he did it and embarrassed us.”
