Had visited painshhill park on the 3/8/2024. After our visit. Me my nephew and his girlfriend wanted to get something to eat afterwards. So we walked down the high street to find somewhere. So we popped into Ali's Grill around 3.30pm .My nephew asked for a Chicken Shish and asked to upgrade to a meal deal ..Sorry no chicken. Not a good start so he said no. I asked for a dona kebab and chips. The chips were refried same as the kebab meat... Didn't even turn on the gas to heat the meat up...Piss poor portion. Ok it was only £8.50 but that's besides the point. All those that say it's the best kebab they've had must have no taste buds or it's the only kebab shop for miles.. Me personally thought it was the worst kebab I've ever had..Bland and dry at the edges. Sorry but where I live I have a choice of at least 20 kebab shops within a five mile radius and the quality is far superior this place..I give 85% of them 5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐+ This place...Minus 5⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐...And not surprising it's only got a 3 ⭐⭐⭐Rating...

Not quite sure what I've done to annoy/offend the guy behind the counter. He didn't really seem like he wanted to be there but who knows...everyone has bad days. First off, I used to go here all the time and really enjoyed the food. Asked the guy if they were taking card payments now as they hadn't for a while and he seemed to get annoyed by that...unsure why? Ordered my food and it was like I was putting him out by asking. I then said "actually ill leave it" and the response was "even better we don't need your custom". Absolutely baffled by this to be honest. As somebody who works face to face with customers everyday that's no way to operate a business. At least start with a smile and appreciate the custom that's walked through the door. The whole point of offering a service like this is to be professional and get repeat custom. If that's not for you then probably don't open a shop where almost all of the job is face to face interactions Looking at the other reviews now it allmakes a lot of sense. Big shame as these lads used to be bang on.

But I can't lie I do love the food here and everyone else that has served me has been brilliant and are lovely genuine people it's a shame how one person can let there business and family reputation down so much, with there rudeness and poor service etiquette!

Where do I begin? Imagine being there waiting for your takeaway lunch when a man in good spirits comes in and asks to the employees, "Where can I find a good burger around here?" Rather than being welcomed by the staff, they talk to him in a demeaning way and say things like. "We were talking the other day about people who ask stupid questions!. Man: It is just a joke. Staff: Oh, you are a comedian! Man: Relax, it was honestly just a joke. Staff: Get the F%*& out of here, go away, get out! Man: honestly, relax Staff just kept on going telling him to get out and this goes no for several minutes as I stand there with my young son while i want for his food. When the man behind the counter made eye contact with me to ask what my son wanted on his burger, I made the mistake of getting involved. Me: I do believe he is just trying to be friendly and meant no disrespect. Man: Why do you have to get involved? This is not your business Me: You are right, I should have not gotten involved. Man: Why do you get involved. Me: I already answered. I apologize I did. He threw away my son's food and told me to also get out. I ended up eating from Dominos next door. One thing is for sure. Never will I ever go back to Ali's Grill nor will my two boys who used to go there often. We all have bad days but this was unacceptable. I regret witnessing this. So much unnecessary hatred from one person to another.

Always great food! Whole family enjoy an “Ali’s” - a treat we look forward to especially in these financially tighter days. Meat is always spot on, salads are fresh and always makes food exactly to order. Delicious. Hubby loves the lamb here but I personally think the chicken is the best! As I suffer from word blindness, sadly I never know the right names for things! (My apologies for this) The food is always delicious. Top takeaway - highly recommend.

The kebabs and burgers are usually always very nice. The chips can be hit and miss, sometimes soggy / not crispy enough but acceptable. For the area the prices are OK. The service is usually pretty good, depends what person is in there. I wouldn't say I love this place but happy to eat it for a weekend takeaway if someone else in the family fancies it.

Was around the area for work purpose and stopped by to grab some munch, noticed it was quite busy so it must explain that the business is doing somthing right, food was good, and the fact that they’re doing their best shows a lot, some of the reviews seem little too much, as I have got awful service from McDonald’s/KFC half of the time but I don’t bother posting reviews but we are quite harsh if we don’t get offered a free dip, lol Will surely be back if I’m in town Manny

As a local family we gave Ali Grills a go a few times. Each time we has been very dissatisfied. First time they forgot my son kebab and 7up which I had to drive back for. And found them very rude. We ordered again after a couple of months and yet again we were unsatisfied, The meat was hard and crunchy it seemed of been fried. The salad was definitely not fresh. I phoned up to complain also told them I will never order from them again. Now we use a local place called “Surrey Grill” and I have to say I have never had a problem with them and the food 10x nicer then Ali Grills.

Our family are big fans of Ali's Grill - we remember when it opened and have loved it for years. The food is yummy, there are plenty of fresh vegetables in the salad and the staff there are really friendly and respectful. They always make an effort to ensure we have the food we want and apologise if they have run out of something. I really recommend them. I also really recommend reading their responses to their negative reviews if you want a laugh - we wondered why there were any negative reviews because we've never had a bad experience with them, but reading their responses, it sounds like others haven't had a bad experience with Ali's Grill, but with their own attitude. Peace and love to you guys - you're the best!

The meat was sliced off the skewer, then reheated in a frying pan, then covered in cold gloopy chili sauce. There was far too much chicken, making it impossible to eat by without it all falling out of the pitta bread. It tasted awful. Cash paymentss only !!! I wouldn't recommend this place.

Fully agree with the other terrible review on here regarding the man with the glasses! More than just bad customer service actually fully confrontational. I ordered from Deliveroo which they just marked as delivered even though it never left the shop, I gave them the benefit of the doubt and still to the shop instead. The picture became clearer regarding my Deliveroo order as they had already cleaned up (Im assuming they clean at the end, maybe not) and were leaving an hour earlier than they advertised so obviously couldn’t be bothered to make my order. When I arrived there instead of any kind of apology the guy with the glasses just laughed at me and said ‘it’s your problem’. With the blatant disregard for their customers I’m happy that I didn’t get any food from there as I can only assume the sod the customer attitude extends to their food too. I have to wait 10 days to get my money back and also got laughed so not a great experience. I won’t be going there and I definitely do not recommend it.

Possibly the worst shawarma I’ve ever had the misfortune of tasting, took off the spit, then re heated on the grill til it was inedible & covered in the grossest chilli sauce ever. Avoid.

Came here with a friend for a quick bite to eat after work. Huge selection of salads and other vegan & veggie options which is great for a kebab shop. I got a veggie wrap which was large and cost £5. The only thing it took a long time to make when there seemed to be stuff standing around not really doing anything but of course I could be wrong. Could also do with some napkins!

I was a regular here until I moved out of area. I have now returned back to the area and visited quite a few times. The worker with glasses was extremely rude each and every time. On my final visit he tried to argue with me about pricing whilst I was trying to point out an error as his colleague stated a lower price. He continued in a raised voice that all I have ever done is complain about the food which I have never done that I can buy a packet of cigarettes yet can’t spend a pound extra for a meal deal. Had this worker been polite and courteous I would have been more than willing to pay. The shop had men sitting and eating and this worker completely embarrassed me in my home town in front of them and told me not to return and to take the meal for free and to get out of his shop. I was so disgusted by the behaviour I threw the box over the counter. To belittle a woman who was a regular and local family members who were too I find it disgraceful. Instead of attempting to communicate and provide good customer service he would rather not have your custom.

You're starving and want something 'on the hoof' The Ali's Grill is the only destination. They prepare the best in/take out wrap and the place is spotless and the staff very accommodating. If you are not looking for fine dining but something to kill that starvation then just head over to Ali's Grill

No complaints at all about the fish and chips at £9.95. It was superb, 5*. But the tortilla with salad arrived without the dressed carrot and cole slaw mix, had to be sent back. No forks so had to use a tiny picnic one use with a proper knife. Courteous and helpful start.

Ordered a pepperoni passion a week ago today, the result was shocking I returned it complaining it didn’t have double pepperoni or double cheese and was told it did, the burnt patches were apparently cheese Upon eating it I realised I had been lied to, the burnt patches weren’t cheese and the pizza really did have very little pepperoni on it I requested a new pizza and was told it may not be any better than what I’d already been given. Disgusted I left the shop with my moody pizza, and declined the frustrating offer of a free drink Complained via twitter and was given a link to a form to complain, no response within a full calendar week, further compounding my frustration SOMEONE CUT THIS PIZZA AND THOUGHT, YEAH, THAT’LL DO…. Shocking pizza and shocking customer service.

Went here based on a recommendation in a paper. Sadly it did not live up to expectations. Welcome was functional not especially friendly. Where we were sat was crafty and I kept my jacket on for most of the meal. Sunday roast was average. Slightly dry and lacking seasoning chicken and soggy roast potatoes. The Yorkshire puddings however were excellent.
