Oranos Grill & Karahi

"We had our anniversary dinner here on 10.03.2023. The atmosphere was fantastic, the service from the staff was spot on and the food was sensational! This was our first time dining here and the first time anywhere can be shadowed in skepticism unless said place is a recommendation from friends, family, or someone you trust. However, from our first steps inside the building, we were made to feel comfortable and relaxed within moments by the staff, who greeted us with smiles and guided us to our table. The service was fairly quick and fast; drinks were out in good time and the main meal too. However, we were only the second party in at that particular moment and they were open just over half an hour from when we came in. Coming on to what we ate, we had the Oranos' Platters for 4, which were so, so scrumptious! All of the items were cooked well and kept warm to the point that they could be eaten and appreciated without burning our tongues or being overloaded with chillies—not at all, just perfection! However, I knocked 1 star off and that was only because, when we got home, we were looking to do this review and were looking through the menu and the pictures we had taken and then realised that we were missing two items from the platter meal... Which is the only disappointment that these were missed. Edit: Since the above notes, we have spoken to the manager, Ali and he has assured us that next time we are in, we can have any dish as a compensation."

"I had a brilliant time today with my 2 brothers at Oranos and especially would like to say special thanks to Shahed who served us and made us very welcome. She was very attentive and recommended us the Tawa for 4. I will be back soon with the family. I would recommend they put some red meat starters on the Tawa instead of some of the chicken items as it was chicken wings, chicken tikka, chicken seekh kebab other than that I would say it's really good, if they could heat the Tawa before serving that also would be a nice touch and put a pair of tongs on it too."

"Really surprised by the food, didn't expect much but well spiced. We had the tawa for 2 and platter for 2 with the Mantoos which were like dumpling with nice lentils on them and there were around 10 of them so plenty of food. Great service and would recommend the Afghani ice cream at the end"

"Restuarent itself is clean and tidy. Food is fine, typical and standard. Nothing remarkable and unique. Portion is standard. Staff are friendly and nice, but the service need to be more improved. They not offered us any water, I mean atleast some tap water. We have to ask for it, at the end of the meal. Price is too much or over priced. Eg, we ordered a Sprite for a drink, they given us a standard tin Sprite with the glass for a Price of £1.95. We were atleast expecting a bottle or something for the price. And we ordered a portion of dynamite prawns for the price around £12.95 or something. Received only three prawns and too much chips and some cheaper version of salad without any source. It's not a great standard for these kind of restuarent."

"Great service and amazing food. Really impressed with the quality of the food and portion sizes. We ordered the tawa for 4 people and the platter for 2 and that was enough for our group. The owner/manager was extremely accommodating and waitress were polite and attentive."
