Istanbul Shawarma, Redcar in Redcar and Cleveland

Shawarma wraps x2 mixed with chips in 8 quid can't go wrong absolutely delicious the owner is so nice and friendly always asks after the wife and kids highly recommended

I have been to this shop and they charged me more than what was on menu, when I asked for clarification then the guy with beaded and masked face told me take a set and don’t talk, and he warranted me saying that “ dare to see me after 6pm so I can show myself to you” it was so scary and I don’t know what kind of people has been licensed to run a business in the center of the town, honestly I didnt felt safe😨. He taped on my back to leave the shop now and come later if you want to find who I am!! I hope local authorities will do something in order to protect the community.

Food is unreal good Service, always polite it’s my regular place 🤣🔥😋👌

Absolutely terrible service , food ratings 1 🌟, just a simple google search will tell you why! Owner is rude and aggressive if you question anything. Don’t fall for the cheap price, you get what you pay for . Avoid avoid..

Really horrible and rude behaviour of the owner ordered grilled chicken and pizza when they both came after 30 min I tried my first byte of chicken which was tasteless and dry I asked him to check the chicken to my horror he starts abusing we paid and left rather than getting into verbal argument but he was really aggressive and loud for no reason horrible .

Great place. 2 chicken wraps and drinks were £8. Great quality and value. Inside is kind of cheap and cheerful but busy and packed which has to be a good sign. Staff are very friendly and hard working. Naans are cooked right there behind the counter in the oven.

So last night tried this place first time, I was impressed, then went to collect my food, he called me back and said he undercharged me, which I kinda knew he hadn’t, but my phone had died to check my banking app, got home and he over charged me 5.50 which is nothing to some but to me it was way too much for what we got, unfortunately with that level of trust I won’t return. Please honestly check his prices as it seems he’s done it before :( I’m not happy.

Good food but big mouth on bossman. Learn how to talk to customers

Amazing food, very cheap (only £3.50 for a shawarma!) but extremely hot restaurant if eating in. be careful when eating shawarma as it could spill from the bottom. Brilliant food however - do recommend

What a lovely find definitely go back

Very rude staff and boss...worst service.

Rude workers, who don't understand English and therefore can barely understand orders. Treated us terribly to the point we left because the guy was so loud and rude. He then started screaming that he's not rude, I could see they were rush off their feet but does not make it acceptable to scream at customers as soon as they come into the shop.

It is delicious nice and lovely.

Really good cheap food, staff are friendly

I ordered 4 portions of chips as I didn’t get the chance to make a side for my dinner. The portions absolutely shocked me comparing to other takeaway shops this was the smallest amount of chips I have ever seen. Definitely not worth the price. The size of the garlic dips was twice as ridiculous.

The food was okay but he had not much left , the customer service was good , the place very old fashioned and needs a good clean .

Top notch food. Only a fiver for a big shawarma. I started getting them for lunch once a week and now all the lads at work are getting involved too!

Used this place for the first time yesterday and super impressed with it.. Lovely food, great prices and very helpful staff... Would happily recommend and will revisit again soon 😊👍

Ate in. Nice and clean, staff very helpful and cheerful. The food was excellent, service was great. Extremely good value for money. Also, the 'Istanbul' sauce was great ! Recommended. 👍👍

Bad service and takes a long time

Great food and friendly service 👌 They can't do enough for you Spot on

The food was delicious and it was my first time trying a chicken shawarma and the service was amazing

One of our favourite places to eat. We make up excuses to go into Redcar to call in at lunchtime. Shawarma wrap is super tasty and huge value for money. The owner is friendly and even when the whole team are busy he takes time to greet you and check if everything is ok. Make sure you have the Istanbul sauce!! From "mommy and bossman"

Chicken burger wasn't good. Service also poor.

I went there 3 times on my first visit everything was alright when I went there 2nd times with my colleague we had shawarma and Nan. The Nan was cold and the guy who's in front looks old age he gives me sauce on top of shawarma but my colleague asked for little bit extra sauce on top of the shawarma he charged him 60p extra. I again went there today and had shawarma wrap with top of garlic sauce he charged me 1 pound extra. I asked him why you charging 1 pound extra he said we didn't provide food with sauce if you want top of your shawarma you have to pay. I told him I already had before but you never charged me and also you provide sauce bottle for your regular customers but you didn't charged them. He refused and lied to me. This old age guy provide good services who are regular British people he doesn't care about new client. I will never go over there.

Don't bother with a doner kebab, it comes as meat and salad in a box with a very small and cold 'bulk buy' pitta bread on top of the box, so you have to make your own. Meat is bland, salad seemed fresh but not much of it, pitta was poor. Not recommended.

Best thing to open in redcar in years. The shawarma is first class - proper fresh cooked bread wraps and it’s delicious, the people are nice and friendly and it’s good value. Top rated

Worst experience ever had, menu in the shop displays one price and they charged me 3 times of it , no proper response from them when asked about price. They are not even bothered to wear a gloves I have seen them using same hand towel (the cloth was soo disgusting and dirty ) for wiping there hands instead of washing .

love this place, really friendly owner and staff, absolutely banging food at a great price, always go whenever I'm in redcar

Lovely affordable place to eat. The people who run it are lovely and really helpful. If you get chance definitely give them a visit!!

Excellent Food Excellent Value Excellent Service

Very friendly & good service I tried the take out for the second time last week & the food was as good as the first time

Pizza was dry and called up about a lost charger I lost there and was rude

Lovely quality food, friendly staff many thanks 👍

Absolutely loved the experience here today. So welcoming and accommodating. Tried the wrap, the chicken and lamb shawarma and the fataya really nice. Their home made sauces were really lovely too. The chilli sauce had a really earthy kick!

Great value for money and staff are always friendly and welcoming.

Great restaurant, love the shawarma, proper friendly service aswell

Great place for fresh wraps. Excellent food and service. You can watch them putting the fresh doe in the ovens whilst you wait.

One of the best kebabs I’ve ever eaten. Brilliant staff too 🥙🥙

Best place to have fatayer and shawarma and excellent customer service!!

Definitely best kebab place in whole north east.

Great food great customer service

Great food, great service and excellent value.

First time trying here and the food was very nice and I was shocked how cheap it is.

First time I visited - sadly no lamb on the menu - but the chicken sandwich I ordered (was served as wrap) but Sandwich bread came after. The food however - We had to have the chicken but I can't complain the Half Chicken was cooked very nice - the Shawarma soft and well marinated- they just need to remember not to serve the meat cold as they did the Shawarma. Staff and management very pleasant and friendly - I gave five stars because apart from them minor issues I would definitely go back.

Nice food, friendly staff, came in with the missus and the kids and they all loved the food.

Great food and very reasonable price. Would definitely recommend the chicken wrap x

Got a chicken n lamb shawarma wrap with chips garlic sauce n salad itcwas so fresh the ingredients the taste was amazing the price, was good and the staff were so helpful if you are in Redcar anytime you must try this deffo returning was lovely as.

Very affordable and absolutely delicious. One of the best takeaways i get!

Always a great welcome at this most hospitable venue. the shawarma kebab is loaded with lamb or chicken & brightly coloured salad that makes the meal so deliciously appetising, friendly service, excellent pricing ‘Istanbul Shawarma’ is always on our list of go to places, thank you and all the best to management & staff for such a valuable service to Redcar community😊

Best shawarma kebab in the North East

This is by far the best shawarma/pizza takeaway I have been to, really friendly staff and great tasking food. I most definitely be going back I highly recommend this takeaway

Best food ever, best customer service ever ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

I feel welcomed anytime I go there. The old man is really nice and their dough is always freshly made. Anytime I am in Redcar, I make sure I visit.

We stopped here after a cold day walking our dog on the beach. Only intended to get food to take away, but we ended up sitting in. The food was amazing, we had pizza and a chicken kebab in naan bread with salad. The food was so fresh and colourful, and the chicken kebab was to die for!! What really made it though was the staff. The manager was so kind, welcoming and friendly....he must have previously worked in a restaurant as customer service was top notch. It felt like we were in a restaurant not a small cafe/snack bar, because he treat us so well. Really nice guy (sorry we didn't catch your name), we were on holiday but he treat all the locals who obviously really likes him... exactly the same. lReally good price and generous portions...we will definitely be back if we visit the area again!!

Absolutely delicious food and very very friendly staff. Walked 3 miles to get here, as my truck is parked up for tonight. Now for my 3 miles return walk.

Very tasty shawarma. Incredible prices. Super friendly bunch of guys who work here.

Pleasant staff always happy to help great value for money all bread buns and sauces made fresh every day and naan cooked as you ask for a shawarma.. 100% recommend.. I'm not keen on chilli but I like theirs 10/10 food

This is the best place in Redcar and Cleveland for a shawarma or a pizza, the burgers are really nice aswell, the staff are friendly and even put the chairs outside for us to eat as it was near closing time, can't fault the place at all

Shawarma comes to Redcar and it's done brilliantly! Fresh Shawarma, Fresh Salad, Fresh Nan's, Tasty Sauces what else could you want! Oh yeah £3 BARGAIN😍😍

Amazing value for money, we got a large and normal 2 drinks and a free wrap for £10, the guys are so polite and welcoming as well make you feel like a family member

Great food and cheap Go most times I'm in Redcar Good service 👍

Excellent shwarma with the most delicious little naan breads, can't recommend it highly enough. Staff are very friendly.

Amazing place! Great staff that bend over backwards to please, excellent prices, we now go very regularly! Definitely recommend, though if you want a shawarma on the way home from the pub check they are still open as one time they were closed when we thought they'd be open. Well worth a visit! Love love love this place and the staff
