The fish in this place is very small. Yet the price for this fish is very high (Ā£9.50!). When we opened the box at home, I thought for a minute that they may have mistakenly given us a smaller size choice of fish.
There are many other more reputable and well known places (eg. on Welford Road) who a) charge less, b) provide much much better portion sizes, and c) even taste much better! And Iām sure as a result they have much more customers.
Many people have written a similar review, so itās clearly general consensus. So I hope prospective customers will consider this review carefully and stay away from Mohammadās Halal Fish & Chips.
Somebody also wrote a review along the lines of, that they are simply just relying on people who come here for convenience (and charging them extortionately!). I agree with this. I would also add that doing this (ie. taking advantage of customers) shows how unprofessional and cunning the owners of this establishment are.
This unreasonable concept of over charging customers ultimately will cause the owners to lose out in the end. Only that they will never know it. But Iām sure they would have more customers resulting in better and more profits; only if they didnāt rip off the community who has been loyal to them for many many years.
My brother and I have lived in Leicester all our lives. My older brother used to regularly visit Halal as a child in the 80s as my parents used to live nearby. My father still comes here regularly (I will be making a strong recommendation to him about boycotting from now on). I havenāt been here a lot in my lifetime (thankfully!). My wife said itās her first and last time here! I too will never visit here during the rest of my lifetime.
Happy for the owners that they charged me double for what our fishes were worth. In their mind they probably think that earning an extra tenner in profit (from a non returning customer; so a one time sale) is more valuable than sayā¦. continuing to earn the same money (albeit making Ā£2 less profit due to a bigger fish, on a Ā£24 sale for 2 x fish, plus large chips) once a month (for instance) for the next 30 years of my life (and probably the next 80 years of my babyās and her future familyās life).
I think the owners of this shop have been watching too much social media and living in dreamland!!!

Ā Ā Ā Read moreThis place was once a gem. It was our family go to takeout during my childhood and then continued as an adult. Unfortunately, it has gone downhill over the years. The chips which used to be to die for are always gritty and full of tiny stones. In fact the last time I bought chips I threw them away as they were so gritty to the point they were not edible. I did let the staff know at the time and put it down to a one off. Tonight I paid Ā£10 (fair enough) for 2 large portions of chips for the family. When we all sat down to eat, I could not believe the amount of grit/stones in the chips. The whole lot got binned as again, it was not edible. I canāt believe how they think itās acceptable to serve food like this. I am very sure that many customers will have complained about it but they obviously donāt care. I wonāt ever be wasting my money at this...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreThis is one of the best places for food I have ever been to. Usually one Friday each month we go here and get some food, specifically the fat fries and donor, let me tell you it as absolutely amazing! Good Value for money! Also one of the few places in LE2 that I would consider before anything. Not to mention its Halal so it is the perfect place for Muslims like me! Absolutely phenomena. I do wish that they would have more chairs to sit on because they're a bit too high in my opinion, they could've done something like Chaii walla which honestly is about the same price. 1 thing I would like is for that to list their place on Just Eat, or uber eats - I would love if they would consider this because having this food delivered to my doorstep would be a delicious treat rather then going from LE3 to LE2 all the time (for me) I personally Rate...
