  “I had a very disappointing experience at Rekdi Panipuri in Wembley. The pricing was completely inconsistent. I asked one staff member about the price of a Coke and was told it was £1, but when I paid, another staff member charged me £1.50. The same thing happened with the food. The menu board clearly displayed £5.50 for the Vada Pav, but I was charged £6 without any explanation. The staff seemed confused, and no one could give me a clear or consistent answer about the prices. The food was equally disappointing. I ordered a Cheese Vada Pav, but I was initially given a normal Vada Pav. When I pointed out the mistake, they took it back and simply sprinkled cheese on top instead of making it properly. A Cheese Vada Pav is supposed to have the cheese inside, not just thrown on top. It looked unappetising and tasted terrible. I also ordered Gujarati snacks as a takeaway, but by the time I got home they were soggy and tasted very poor. Overall, the service was disorganised, the pricing was inconsistent, and the food quality did not meet expectations. I would rather recommend spending your money at a better restaurant than eating here. Unfortunately, I won't be coming back.”

  “Went to outside window to order and no one wad there so after waiting ages I went to the window inside only for the woman to rudely say that I need to order from the outside window. Eventually a woman appeared at the outside window, I had to re-queue and fortunately was only one person. No clear signage of where you should go to order. Impolite service at inner window. Let's hope the much hyped dhokala (£5) is good.... Will update review thereafter.”

  “Very poor quality food. They are serving leftovers. We ordered Pav Bhaji, and the curry was rotten and had a bad smell. I went to ask the staff if they were serving leftovers, and surprisingly, she replied, "Yes, sorry, we didn't check." She simply offered a refund. What if we had eaten it and suffered food poisoning? They didn't seem concerned about that at all. This was our first visit, and we are new customers. I honestly don't understand how this place became so famous. Extremely disappointing experience. I would not recommend it.”

  “This used to be a decent place for a quick snack- nothing too fancy, just a quick 5 minute stop for some chat patta food. However, the quality of food has gone down, and the prices have gone up, to the point that for some of the dishes, you're paying restaurant prices- when in actual fact, you're eating with disposable cutlery, sitting on a half broken chair, or having to stand at busy times. The masala chips were over priced for what they were- which is a small portion of chips with some salt and chilli powder- £5!!! The service also isn't great.”

  “We have got food from Rekdi Paani Puri many times whilst shopping at Ealing Road and it’s always been the best, tastiest food full of flavour. We had a family gathering at home and enquired with them for catering. We spoke to Jitubhai about our requirements, choice of menu and dietary preferences. Jitubhai was very friendly right from the initial first phone call. He gathered all the information of our needs, arranged for a food taste and meeting and ensured that we chose the best items for the occasion and each detail was taken into consideration. He answered every question with a positive outcome and full of care! The food arrived exactly on time as promised, packaging was very impressive and the food was so delicious that all our guests kept asking where we had ordered from. All the items were very tasty, full of flavour and mouth watering. We would highly recommend catering services from Jitubhai at Rekdi Paani Puri for the best food for any occasion! To add a finishing touch - the dessert was so sweet and perfect too! Thank you so much for the excellent service and we will be back for sure.”

  “They sell bad quality products. Bought some coconuts for home and they gave us rotten ones. Never buying again. Go to the next shop for better quality coconuts.”

  “I often visit this Gujarati spot for snacks, and the food is genuinely excellent. It delivers authentic Indian flavours at surprisingly cheap prices for London, which is rare. The service is good and consistent. However, the indoor seating area seriously lacks hygiene, which takes away from the overall experience. Despite this issue, it’s still a place I end up visiting repeatedly for the food alone.”

  “The pani puri here is great and the dhai puri is even better. The jalebi was also some of the best I’ve had. There isn’t much space inside to sit and the service is not good but honestly the food more than makes up for it.”

  “I tried pani puri here and it was really nice! The flavours were fresh, the puris were crispy, and the spicy water had a good kick. Definitely worth trying if you're craving street-style Indian snacks.”
