Have tried it 3 times (to give benefit of any doubt) but after 3 attempts at getting a decent meal, it's safe to say this place is utterly disgusting.
Everything I've ever ordered has either been swimming in grease, or cold, or both. I won't go through all of the food I tried but it covered all the usual stuff. I'll include a some key things and what I found out after complaining:
Ordered a mixed kebab of 2 types of chicken and a kofte with salad. Kebab came cold, the naan so cold it had rigor mortis, and stuffed to the brim with donner meat, a chicken that had strange bitty texture, and another meat I simply could not identify, but it definitely wasn't chicken, nor was it kofte. Whatever it was, it was scorched, tough and chewy. Almost the entire thing went in the bin.
The salt and pepper chicken (which I ordered 2 times) was rock hard. The first order the chicken was so rubbery it was hard to actually chew through it. The chicken just bounced back like a dogs toy. The vegetables in the dish were paltry, perhaps a few tiny bits of pepper and onion. Nothing compared to salt and pepper chicken from a Chinese.
The second order of salt and pepper chicken was rock hard. I rang up and told them - the guy said that they accidentally gave me chicken which was cooked 3 times rather than twice. I asked what he meant and he said - the chicken is pre-cooked and is re-fried when someone orders it - I accidentally got some that had been pre-cooked then re-cooked then cooked again! Thanks! I'm so glad my thrice-cooked chicken was an accident and I was only supposed to get twice-cooked chicken. I don't think he meant to say that to me.
Salt and pepper chips swimming in oil. Ribs - don't even go there unless you enjoy greasy bones. Cheeseburger was actually ok.
I said to the guy I can't order from you anymore I'll go to one on South Road - to which hew told me: the same people own Henry's and Gourmet on South Road - so the food is the same whichever...
