East 17 Kebabish

"This place is probably under rated. But I tell you the food is nice! I love the sheik kebabs and the little snacks like pakora's and samosas Spicy ! Very good value"

"so so disappointing. i ordered for my family because i usually have their kebab rolls which are good. i ordered their chicken tikka biryani & samosas. oh my god, it was THE greasiest thing ever. the oil was literally bursting at the lid so before i even opened the lid, there was oil running throughout the whole thing. the samosas were also very thin & smelt off but again they were greasy as well so the paper bag it came in was oily to the touch. usually love a but of greasy food but there is a LIMIT! with oil prices these days, im surprised this restaurant manages to use an extreme amount. I took about 2/3 bites of the chicken tikka biryani and my mouth was filled with oil. i felt so sick. i’ve had birynani on multiple occasions & never has it tasted this bad. if you want to gain about 2000 calories from a few bites alone, then only would it make sense to get this meal. The Kofta in the Samosa smelt off & tasted like it had been reheated. We left the biryani, super confused on what to do with it since no one wants to eat it. The samosa has also been left with one bite taken out of it. The kebab roll is the only delectable thing if not a bit dry. We’ve lost our appetite however and I feel like i’m goikg to wake up with food poisoning. Genuinely think I won’t be ordering from here ever again even for the kebab rolls. Terrible."

"I ordered the Chicken Tikka Masala which was described as a mild, sweet sauce but it was actually rather oily and definitely not something I would describe as mild or sweet. The Naan was covered in large garlic chunks which gave it the overpowering taste of burnt garlic, this might be to some people's taste but it was not what I was hoping for when I ordered."

"Read some of the reviews, generally positive, a few negative, but decided to give the place a go. Ordered the Chana Masala and was the worst curry I've ever eaten. Disgusting colour, bland flavour, a vat of oil and unpleasant tasting paste (you can see the vast amounts of oil separating from the curry). Could feel it doing bits on my stomach whilst I was eating it. Threw most of it away, absolute waste of money. Avoid this place at all costs, your stomach doesn't deserve this."

"The food was flavoursome, fresh and really tasty. Excellent customer service. I will definitely come here again when I next come to London."
