“very poor service not happy at all will not recommend her no one to eat or buy food from”

“This is the best chicken sish you will get in east London. I’ve ordered this almost weekly for about 10 years (lol) the salad is excellent and the yoghurt and salsa is homemade and fresh.”

“The customer service was very poor, I explained my very simple order to the guy and it was like every question frustrated them. The chicken was so dry, and just tasted like salt no real seasoning. The salad was dry and the chips were reheated clearly more than once as it just tasted like oil. I threw the whole meal away”
- Daniel Hemans
“Do not eat here. I went in and saw the staff picking his hands in my food whilst sharing my chips out in the container, then he ate from my food before giving it to me. I also saw the other man picking his hand in my lamb doner and eating a piece of it before serving it to me in my container. It’s just unprofessional and dirty. I don’t know where your hands have been. Do not pick your hands in people foods and eat their food , then serve it to them.”

“I bought a chicken doner from Best Mangal on Chatsworth Road today and had a really bad experience. The person preparing my order took some precooked meat, put it on the griddle, basically fried it, and served it to me like that. The taste was honestly awful, nothing like proper doner at all. For the price, I expected something fresh and decent, but this was really disappointing. I won’t be going back.”

Customer Review Summary
Doner is the item reviewers raise most, and most describe it as a letdown: dry chicken that tasted mainly of salt, dark brown meat that was crispy and hard, a cold kebab with hard lumps, and precooked meat fried on the griddle before serving. One reviewer received lamb doner after ordering chicken. Chips draw similar complaints, called reheated, oily, soft and uncooked in taste, and the salad is described as dry. Service is criticised too, with one reviewer saying staff seemed frustrated by a simple order and another saying they were shouted at over an extra charge for a separate salad box. Two reviewers report seeing staff handle food with their hands and eat from customers' orders. Praise comes from a minority. A customer of about ten years praises the chicken sish, with homemade yoghurt and salsa and an excellent salad, and another credits the grill chef's tasty quarter pounder and good portion size, though the chilli sauce is called a little lumpy. One reviewer ended up throwing the whole meal away.
