This place used to be VERY nice but I don’t know what happened. Became a regular customer and noticed how they did not care about you anymore so I stopped coming to this Shepard’s bush branch. It’s been a good 4 months since I visited so decided to visit one last time thinking they will be good but …
The chicken deluxe is DRY and the burger fillet is SOO thin a bite into the burger all you can taste it the bread. Towards the end of the burger all I was eating was the bread buns 🙃
The owner is stingy. I’m sorry to say this but for £7.50 you would expect the fries portion to be decent, ridiculous amount of fries the way he was putting it inside the box was as if he was counting how many needs to go in each box.
You can’t purchase a kids meal after 5 lol because apparently “this isn’t nandos” and they don’t want adults buying kids meals for themselves. Seriously? This is pathetic! Well there are people who come to the shop without bringing our kids as we are getting takeaway to take it back home to the kids. Lol? Never heard a shop complain about people getting kids meals and even if some adults DO decide to get a kids meal why is that bad? Some people genuinely can not eat that much. Please be a bit more considerate and they are paying for it, it’s not like you’re giving it out for free?
The kids meal portion of fries is same as the normal “adult” meals, what an absolute rip off. Felt mugged off.
The owner and the workers talk in their own language in-front of customers. A huge 🚩! Thankfully I understand what they were saying again talking about the kids and saying this isn’t nandos where adults can eat kids meals 🙄
There are WAY better gourmet places! But if you’re in bush stick to a chicken shop, you’ll be full and...
Read moreSure! Here's a sample review for a smash burger-style restaurant, incorporating the names Mahmud and Salman:
Review: 5/5 ⭐ – Smash Heaven with Mahmud & Salman
If you're a fan of juicy, crispy-edged burgers that pack flavor in every bite, Smash Heaven (or whatever the actual name is) is your new go-to spot. I went with my friends Mahmud and Salman, both certified burger snobs — and let me tell you, even they were seriously impressed.
We ordered the double smash with cheese, caramelized onions, and house sauce. The patties were perfectly seared — thin but still juicy inside — and the cheese was melted into every crevice. The buns? Buttery, soft, and just the right amount of toasted.
Mahmud couldn’t stop talking about the fries — golden, crispy, and seasoned to perfection — while Salman said the spicy burger might be the best he's had outside of L.A.
The vibe is casual but sharp. Fast service, cool music, and an open kitchen where you can watch the burgers hit the grill. Prices are reasonable, portions are generous, and the flavor? Off the charts.
Whether you’re a burger purist or like to stack yours with jalapeños and aioli, Mahmud, Salman, and I all agree — this place smashes it.
Would you like a more casual version or something formatted for...
Read moreStill one of my favourite burger joints in London but I feel as though the standards have dropped a little over time.
Food: The food has been a bit hit and miss recently. On some occasions I visit, the food is just as I always remembered but more recently on two separate occasions the food has not been to the same high standard I am used to when buying food from here
Price: The prices have gone up over time and normally that is acceptable. However sadly with Chicago Grill it also appears as though the portion sizes have diminished over time. The meaty chips for the price is outrageously expensive for what it is
Service: I tend to use the collection service when I visit. I ring 15 minutes in advance so that I am not waiting around once I get to the shop. Sadly, on multiple occasions I have waited around for a further 10 mins or so before my food is ready.
Overall the food is good but I feel as though they are starting to cut corners now which is really detracting from the overall experience. I hope the management reads this review and reflects on how the service used to be and makes an active attempt to improve. It would be such a shame if the service continued to drop.
Right now it just feels like an...
