No pude comerlo. Muy grasienta, masticable patatas fritas y no tenía pitta con los kebabs. Desperdicio de dinero cuando se fue a la papelera. Solo fuimos aquí porque no teníamos dinero para la furgoneta. No volveré a cometer ese error.

One of the best kebab shops I’ve eaten from. Prices vary but you can buy a mixed meat selection for the kebab. Portions are fair, salad is fresh and the shop itself is clean. Nice atmosphere and the servers are most polite. I’d suggest the hummus, it’s the best I’ve tried to date.

I'm regularly customer for 10 years. Today wasn't the tasty meal neither service. Not asked if in or take away as i was usually asked, I sat down with my son after placing the order. Young man was preparing it and packing into take away boxes and wrapping it in paper . After 5 min when everything was ready , he called me only to find out that we were eating in. So they have started moving food in to the plates . My kebab meat wasn't hot and juicy as usually . My son's was mixed with salad which has happened during the transition of it from take away box to platez. Came with soggy chips. What happened Istambul Mangal. Wasn't there the boss on a shift today and you got more lazy? Today it was the £21.30 worth disappointment especially that I let myself to spend money for buy to eat very rarely .

I come here as we haven’t been for a while and every time I come here the food was nice unfortunately this time I have to say it was terrible. My mrs and son had doner meat and chips and I had a mixed kebab. Hardly any doner meat on all meals which was very greasy and stringy and the chicken was the same. It was that greasy the pitta bread turned back in to dough and was literally falling apart. I hope they can turn this around as the staff are always friendly and the restaurant is always clean.

Simply outstanding. Popped in because I was in the area and heard recommendations. Had a sit in lamb doner and was surprised to find it served on a plate, immaculately presented with a pitta on the side. Superb house chili sauce, non greasy, delicious meat, clean and dry plate at the end. I had forgotten a doner could be this good, I would travel to come back. No idea what are people complaining about in the feedback...... Just try this place, it's clean, plenty of seating and friendly staff. Terrific.

We hadn't been for a while so we thought let's go out for dinner with our two little ones. We got two mix donner meat and chips, wings for the kids and couple of drinks. The chips tasted like they were left out and put back in the oil to reheat them. My son who loves chips like all kids, didn't like them at all which was a first. We bought 5 wings and were shocked on the size and quality of them. They were tiny and charged £6 for it!! We took the remains with us out of politeness as we didn't want to be rude but ended up throwing them away which I normally don't like to do. They weren't great at all and had a horrible smell. On top of that, they offered if we want chilli sauce and had the cheek to charge for it which I was astounded as I have never ever paid for sauce in a restaurant/take away. When I brought to the workers attention about the chips, he said they were made fresh and it was just an "odd bag" and sometimes it happens. Another odd response - blaming the bag of chips 🤦 Had to go back and feed the kids dinner at home which was disappointing as they did not enjoy it at all so sorry but not going back again.

We went there yesterday 9/4/22 me and my partner haven't had one from hear for a while so we thought we treat ourselves especially as last time we had one it was lovely. Well it turned out to be a big mistake when we got home we noticed they plastered chilli sauce all over the donner kebab and put the wrong salad on it okay it dont sound that bad but my partner is allergic too tomatoes and he don't have sauce, so back in the car we go he takes it back they did apologise and gave him a new one well lets put it this way it wasn't very warm and in the mean time mine was getting cold as we had to go back to intanbul to change his kebab. i had a chicken shish it was okay but not the best we wont be going back hear again thats for sure.

I haven't eaten out for two years, so haven't posted any reviews during that time. And I can't recall every having had a takeaway! But this afternoon my visitor rang around various places in Tilehurst and this appeared to be the only one that was open. Despite having lived here for 47 years, I couldn't place exactly where it was and advised my friend to park in Armour Road - meaning a walk up School Road. (Still, I was able to point out to her the various amenities.) The guy serving us was very pleasant, though I was a little surprised that it was "cash only". Back home, my friend pointed out to me the various ingredients, which I enjoyed. They were tasty and well-presented. And there's enough left-overs for two more lunches!

Having recently moving to Tilehurst and being partial to a kebab I thought I would give Istanbul mangal ago having heard a lot of good comments on the food and wow it’s sure didn’t let me down BY FAR THE BEST KEBAB I HAVE EVER HAD!!!! The price was a little more expensive than a typical kebab van but the value for money is exceptional baring in mind you get real tasty non processed meat compared to the kebab vans brought processed lamb donner. The staff were very welcoming and friendly the premises were very clean and display cabinets were very Enticing. Honestly couldn’t recommend this place enough you’d be foolish not to give this place ago and as for kebab vans they no longer have my custom.

I had a wonderful chat with the guy that served me. It's spotlessly clean, there is the option to eat in at no extra cost and if you do, they provide plates and cutlery. This joint is just a few minutes walk from my house and I'll certainly be back.

Muy decepcionado con la comida y el servicio al cliente en Harbour Kebab Hace poco pedí una comida de Harbour Kebab, y tanto mi acompañante como yo la encontramos insoportablemente salada, hasta el punto de que sabía como si estuviéramos comiendo un bloque de sal cruda. No fue solo la salchicha, como sugirió el personal: fue toda la comida. Llamé para informar del problema, y la persona en el teléfono dijo que nadie más se había quejado, lo que implica que el problema estaba conmigo. Me ofrecieron un reemplazo, pero cuando le expliqué que la comida completa era el problema, el funcionario me colgó abruptamente. Me sorprendió la falta de profesionalidad y el mal servicio al cliente. Muy decepcionante experiencia. No voy a volver.
