Customer Review Summary
However, several reviewers describe a different experience: burnt doner and Adana kebabs that tasted salty from burning, a lamb doner called dry and flavourless, and one diner who ordered a chicken doner but was handed lamb instead, then told rudely by staff that photos weren't allowed. Another reviewer describes collecting an order in silence, handed a bag without a word from staff.
