Quick info
About City Best Mangal
City Best Mangal is a Mediterranean restaurant on Pitfield St in London, run as a counter-serve kitchen that keeps late hours. The special mixed grill is sized for two, so it suits a pair or a small group sharing a plate. Kebab wraps come with lamb doner or lamb shish, and the chicken doner and chicken kebab arrive with chips, pita and salad. Garlic and spicy sauces come on the side. Falafel and burgers round out the menu for anyone who wants something other than grilled meat. The large seating area covers a sit-down lunch as well as grab-and-go orders.

Customer Review Summary
Reviewers come mainly for the big kebab wraps and plates, with the lamb doner and chunkier lamb shish singled out for tender, well-spiced meat, and the chicken wrap and chicken doner with chips, pita and salad also getting praise. Close behind is the size of the portions, with one diner calling the special mixed grill huge even for two, and several saying the food is generous for the money. A few mention the garlic and spicy sauces, and one reviewer suggests mixing the two. Staff are described as nice, efficient and helpful, and one reviewer notes the big seating area is rare for a London kebab shop. Late-night visitors call it a life saver after a night out. The criticisms are small but specific. One reviewer found the chicken a little oily and light on flavour, another disliked the awkward rectangular serving plate, and one says they were charged twice on a Saturday night after being told the first transaction was void. One reviewer also mentions getting a free can of drink with their chicken kebab.

“Delicious kebab but you charged me twice, on Saturday night. You said the first transaction was void and asked me to pass my card again. Anyway I'm not going to fight for £9.50 and waste my time.”
