Customer Review Summary
Reviewers most often return for the lamb, with one regular ordering the Lamb Doner Kebab every visit and another calling the lamb exceptionally good, as good as some top Turkish restaurants. Close behind are generous portions, which several describe as filling, and fresh, well seasoned food cooked perfectly. A platter and a pizza also earn praise from one diner who dined in on two days. Service is called friendly, welcoming and kind, and takeaway orders are described as arriving quickly, hot and well packaged. Value for money comes up repeatedly, along with the counter ordering and booth style seating that one reviewer says works well. The caveats are a delivery complaint and the surroundings. One longtime local customer reports receiving half an order that arrived cold on a scooter, being told the manager only comes in on certain days when asking for a refund, and then being accused over the phone of making a threat. Another reviewer finds the area rundown with little parking nearby. That same delivery reviewer says they will go back to the place across the road.

“We had a takeaway for first time from Golden Grill House. What a flavour explosion!! Especially the lamb. It was exceptionally good, as good as some top Turkish restaurants. Service was also excellent, food arrived quickly. It was still really hot and was well packaged. Keep up the same standards and return customers guaranteed.”

“Only received half the order, asked for a refund, apparently the manager is not there, only comes in Monday and Tuesday, funnily enough today is Wednesday. Absolutely no desire to solve the cold food and half the order missing despite me living around the corner, I have walked around before and got it back hot, you delivered on a scooter and it was cold!! The person on the phone even tried to say that I threatened to knock him out (name withheld on the basis of reporting to the authorities as the call was recorded). Shame, as we have been local customers for years, will now revert back to across the road 👍 and I'll spread the word!”

“Absolutely flawless food every time I go, I always get the Lamb Doner Kebab and nowhere else I have been beats it. It tastes fresh every time with top quality ingredients and plenty of toppings to choose from. Prices are very fair and portions sizes are plenty. Would definitely recommend if your in the mood for a kebab.”

“You order at the counter, pay and sit down. It works well. There is booth style seating and the decor is fresh and clean. The food tastes good and the portion size very generous.”

“My best friend was hyping this place up a lot, and I never had a kebab before, so when we arrived after the gym the turkish spirit CAME inside us. The food was spectacular, the atmosphere was so relaxing and it was great value for money. Even a medium sized meal could fill you up. 100% would come back again.”
