About Grill House by Sibilya
Charcoal is at the centre of the kitchen at Grill House by Sibilya, a Romanian restaurant on Newland Ave in Hull, where the shaorma comes off the grill as the signature order. Meat is cooked over charcoal across the menu, which stays with Romanian cooking and includes grilled pork neck with mashed potatoes and traditional pork ciorbă, while the shaorma is also served as a plate rather than wrapped. The dining room runs on table service, and seats are taken as walk-ins rather than by reservation. Romanian music plays through the room, and the team greets customers in Romanian. For anyone eating at home, orders go through Just Eat for delivery. The restaurant opens Tuesday to Sunday and closes on Mondays.

Customer Review Summary
Shawarma is the draw reviewers raise most, called tasty and generous for the price, with one diner saying it matches the shaorma from their home country and another buying two very large ones. Close behind is the pork neck with mashed potatoes, described as juicy with perfect charcoal flavor and creamy mash, while another reviewer praises the traditional pork soup. Reviewers repeatedly mention huge portions, modest prices and friendly staff, and several describe an authentic Romanian feel from the music and hospitality. One delivery customer received the food very well packed and extremely hot. The single negative review describes shouting, bright lights and a loud man whose face is printed throughout as overstimulating. Another reviewer calls the place very clean, and a lunchtime visitor says the staff could not do more to help.

“The quality of the service was exceptional and I was made to feel welcome and comfortable throughout my full time there. The shawarma was also unparalleled and I personally feel the portion was extremely generous given the price. I recommend Sibilya to anyone who is living or visiting Hull!”

“I have ordered food through JustEat but I really wanted to leave this review here as it’s the second time I’ve ordered through JustEat and I’m telling you guys it didn’t disappoint me at all. I’ve seen few reviews of people trying to be nasty saying that the owner is not serious and the food is not proper cooked or the delivery’s absolutely terrible. Well let me tell you that you’re wrong! I’ve ordered food and in less than 45 mins it was with me, very well packed and extremely hot. You could tell straight away the food was freshly cooked. I am looking forward to the day I’ll be free to go and enjoy the food at the restaurant but til then, the food deserves 10 stars and so the owner for putting a lot effort into it. Multumesc frumos! A fost delicios!”

“This restaurant, as soon as you step in, you feel like you're in Romania. With the music, the hospitality and most importantly... the food! I had the pork neck and mashed potatoes, and I don't want to say goodbye to this place, but I have to go at some point! The meat was sooooooo juicy and the charcoal was PERFECT, the mashed potatoes were really creamy too! Very friendly staff, modest prices and huge portions. Thank you! Or as they say in Romanian, mulțumesc! From Rhys.”
