I recently had the displeasure of dining at Breeze Restaurant in Chingford and feel compelled to share my experience. Please don’t be fooled by the building’s external appearance as the food and team do not reflect this. It was quite shocking to be treated in such a rude manner. This was all because I was not happy with the over cooked fish and luke warm food that was being presented to me. They also got my order wrong and when I asked if it could be changed, I was made to wait over 20 minutes before they brought the order over. By then, everyone else had eaten. I asked to speak to the manager who was extremely rude, lacked professionalism and needs a lesson in how to deal with customers appropriately. The manager demanded I pay for my meal even though I did not eat it and I should not have had to pay anything but was made to. Not only was the manager rude, but one of the waiters was also downright rude and grabbed my plate away with such force it was astonishing that an establishment such as this employed such under trained staff. Moreover, the food was far from satisfactory. It was not only unappetising, lacked flavour, but also poorly prepared and presented. I had high hopes when I came in, but the terrible food completely ruined the experience and my evening. It's a real shame that the lack of professionalism within the team overshadowed what could have been a pleasant meal. I hope this review serves as constructive feedback for management to make necessary improvements to the food and to the waiting staff. The manager needs to lead by example, I’ve not met a manager such as this in a very long time in all my years eating out. Based on my experience, I would advise others not to waste their money at this restaurant. There are undoubtedly better restaurants in Chingford to spend your hard-earned money with. Thank you for taking the time to read my honest review.

Fabulous as always, my partner was away with kids and grandchildren on Sunday So papers, G&T and a bottle of Picpoul de pinet The best Homemade Humous, and as a chef for many years,the finest chicken livers, I have to say you will not be disappointed here in north Chingford or there Highams Park restaurant, I’ve been to both many times, always fabulous, brilliant for couples or large groups I’ve done both. What else can I say, staff, food and ambiance excellent Thank you again, see you all soon Richie X

Beautifully decorated, friendly staff. Disappointed that the brunch menu isn’t available on a Saturday. I have a small appetite so the portions were big enough for me, but they aren’t generous. we shared a meze, had a main and one drink each which came in at £30 a head. Everyone enjoyed their choices and the food was tasty, and well presented.

I went with a group of friends and the food and cocktails were good. Our waiter, Celal, was very attentive and at the right times. Not bugging us or rushing us.

The 1st visit was with golfing friends on a regular weekly night out. The meal was poor with the fish overcooked, with Macdonald style chips and mixed stir fried vegetables which were obviously re-cooked once or twice from earlier. I am dairy allergic which obviously...

Warm friendly service and I was impressed by a temperature check on arrival. We visited for breakfast but the brunch menu tempted us to a chicken quesadilla and a chicken club sandwich and both were excellent. The staff were attentive and helpful. I will certainly...

Thoroughly enjoyed my visit at this restaurant. The food was amazing, I highly recommend the lamb ribs. I had prawns for starters and they were to die for! They give you complimentary bread and salad which is common for most Turkish restaurants, it tasted so...

A very disappointed evening. We visited this restaurant with my family. The waiters clearly have an attitude problem. They are very sour faced and need to start getting used to smiling more. There was one eldery couple who kindly asked to be seated at the...
