KEBAB FATHER ( Authentic Turkish Cuisine) — Restaurant in Christchurch

UPD: the Chef Ali that was making great meals and making us feel great is not there anymore. Now it is just another kebab place. Nothing special.

Oh man oh man. This place is just fantastic. The lamb marinated in spices and tasted amazing. I bought a meal and was not disappointed. Salad was rich in flavour, full of tomatoes and spiced up just right. Meat was placed on top of the bread and it completely gave bread a nice marinated flavour at the end. Rice was very well cooked, not mushy with great texture. Price wise it is a little more expensive than others, BUT IT IS WORTH every penny as you get more food. More meat was offered, salad isn't just cabbage with sauce, BUT ACTUAL salad. Marinated cabbage was great too, adding more flavour to the whole meal.

My partner went for a chicken kebab souvlaki. It was wrapped in a way so it is eatable with nothing coming out. Meat is very nicely cooked with salad and sauces and was very rich in flavour. Tzatziki sauce was a fantastic addition to kebab. It was very nice and juicy. She loved every bite of it.

As we came in we were very warmly greeted and offered best deals.

We decided to dine in and were looked after like VIP clients. Definitely will be coming back as from now on this is my favourite kebab shop in the whole Christchurch. Believe me I've tried many.

Thank you team that made...

Worst doner kebab in Christchurch. Ordered the rice meal with lamb and paid extra for eggplant as the second option. Didn't get the eggplant, they kept the money! The meal took at least 20 minutes and I ate it in store and it was cold. How is this possible? The meat... oh man.. the meat.. disgusting, I don't even think it is real meat. While eating it, I'm sure it had rocks in it as I would get crunches in my teeth.

Also, the worst part of all. I ordered this meal as it showed that it came with fries... when I got it it had NONE.

Horrible experience and I would recommend anyone considering this place to avoid at all costs. It is OVER PRICED. Disappointing, now I know why they...

Arrived at 6pm Friday night. Ordered food. The 1 person working then talked on her phone and made a hot drink for herself. Requested a refund after 5 minutes of her talking on her phone not even starting the order. She then told us she was waiting for the hot plate and deep fryer to heat up as she'd just opened (at 6pm, website says opening is 11am)

We were not told we would have to wait when we ordered and as the only guests on site we assumed it would be fast as we were time restricted.

She said she could not do a refund as she didn't have any money and didn't know how to do it on the eftpos machine.

Dead empty on a Friday at 6pm should of been...
