Customer Review Summary
The praise is not universal. The same regular says the other menu items are nothing to write home about. One reviewer found the cheesy chips poor, with cheese only on top and not melted, and binned them after microwaving. Another felt the shashlik kebab arrived without tandoori masala sauce, so it seemed like paying extra for a mixed kebab. One reviewer called the food inedible, and another went to the shop on a Monday evening and found it closed despite an online listing suggesting otherwise.

“This food is genuinely, some of the nastiest food I have ever had in my life. Inedable cheap slop. I would rather starve to literal death than ever eat food from this place again.”
- John Paton
“Ordered spicy chicken wings and 12inch ham and pineapple pizza which was pretty good 👍 I've had a lot worse . Open late which was a bonus for us 1am .”
- Yassar Khan (Manchester Tech Guy)
“Their pizzas are always really nice. I've tried a few other items from their menu and they're nothing to write home about. The only thing I can recommend is their pizzas. The quality hasn't degraded and I've been a frequent customer over the past 6 to 8 years.”

“Take away not eat in, ready on time. Good quality. Shame the shashlik kebab has no tandoori masala sauce on it!!...so you're paying extra for a mixed kebab!...will tell them & change review if improved next time!!!”
- Awaise Tahir
“Really nice food for the price. Lot of donner that was nice and soft and chicken tikka had flavour. The cake and custard is also a great price. Well worth a try”
