The Grill Kitchen (TGK) — Local services in Portsmouth

I have been meaning to order from this place for a while now as they keep putting leaflets through my letterbox. I ordered the Lamb Kofta Burger and the Naga Wings.

When first opening the burger, I was a little disappointed to begin with as the patty looked small. But as I bit further, the patty was much larger than expected. (The picture does not do it justice, it is a lot better than that). The patty was thick and extremely juicy, maybe one of the juiciest burgers I have ever had from a budget-burger joint like this. Quite good flavour but was expecting a little more. The sauce did most of the work. Salad was also very fresh.

The wings were quite good but suffered similarly to the burger. Great quality chicken but lacking in flavour. And the Naga sauce was not as spicy as I was expecting. Good value for money and also presented in a plastic reusable container (which is a nice touch).

Considering the good quality of the items, it is good value for money, especially considering some of the garbage for sale from other food vendors in Portsmouth at similar prices (Kens for example). You can tell the passion is there and they really do have some food quality items.

Will definitely visit again and will go for the chicken burgers as they look to be more popular and their specialty.

Worth a visit if you are in the area. Not as good as some of the competitors of similar quality but still a great candidate. The more burgers like this on the street compared to some of the other rubbish out there, the better...

I had been waiting for the opportunity to order from The Grill Kitchen since it opened and boy was I impressed! I ordered the Two's Company platter which included a whole chicken, lamb chops, chicken strips, chicken wings and 2 sides. I chose the sweet potato fries which we cooked to perfection (fluffy on the inside, crispy on the outside) and the salad box which had a lovely mix of lettuce, tomatoes, cucumber and red onion. I also ordered the Beef loaded fries which we nice and cheesy too, and they also came with some fresh whole chillies which gave it a nice kick.

The chicken had a lovely marinade and was tender and juicy. The lamb chops were so tender, meat was falling off the bone and delicious. Such a generous serving of food, 6 of us ate from this selection and we still had leftovers!

My husband and I got some cheeky milkshakes too. We ordered the creme brulee and the biscoff. The creme brulee was yummy however there was no distinct flavour, seemed more like vanilla - still tasty though. The biscoff however was amazing and full of flavour. My husband mentioned that a nice coffee latte/mocha milkshake added to the menu would be brilliant 👀

Overall very pleased with the quality of the food and the service. We ordered for collection which gave a 15 min estimated wait and it was ready only a few mins after the expected time - I could see that they were very busy too. Will definitely order again soon. Looking forward to trying the...

I’m honestly impressed. Considering this place has only started this year I can tell they have a lot of heart and are determined to give out good quality food. For a single cheeseburger as big as my hand I can’t imagine what the other burgers would look like.

The bag and packaging were very well presented, the burger was juicy and flavourful and fries were crispy and even when stale they are actually still edible.

This place has a lot of potential and I believe they will go far. My only criticism would be to serve some napkins in the bag and try to let customers know that their food will take a little longer. For quality like this, you’d expect it to be made at decent restaurants with seating but it’s almost like a takeaway atmosphere where things are expected to be fast. However, I understand that food made basically fresh should have a wait time found at restaurants.

Definitely recommend, will be trying more things on the menu and bring cash if you decide to order up front. Their card readers are still being set up at the time of...
