Basically food was really bad . e.g steak 🥩 t bone was extremely thin and watery . Gravey was water . onions on top were rather boiled . mushroom sauce was tiniest pot with no flavour . Price £35 . I feel womiting and feelings gutted 😭. Please refund my money if you can . Loaded fries 🍟 I actually returned as beef mince was watery making chips soggy . kids mini chicken burger was deep fried two tiniest pieces of processed local shop strips . I feel sorry for kids . probably lamb shank was oki with mesh

Chicken was really dry and flavourless, coleslaw fine but otherwise not spectacular. Service solid. Also felt a little bit unwell the following day unfortunately.

Probably the worst place I have eaten this year. £20 for 5 skinny lamb chops all over cooked. £9 for a geek salad where the lettuce was brown on the edges. The service was ok, and the waiters were pleasant. However the food is so bad it’s robbery what they are charging.

This was one of tge worst experiences iv had, iv been to the other sahara branchs in leyton and whitchaole and service was always warm and welcoming however this branch was the first time i visited yesterday with my husband and toddler for a small lunch date, the management in the stripy shirt and hazely eyes was rude and inconsiderate, my toddler was looming out of the window on the seat no other customers was there all seats on my right was empty so we allowed him to stare out the window while we eat, the manager then told us " get your son off and keep him by your side the seats are getting dirty" we couldnt eat properly and had to rush and at that point felt like we wanted to walk out, how fo you tell a customer to keep their small active child sat down in one place, do we eat or hold our child in one spot? There was no consideration, these seats can get wiped and cleaned but a happy customer youv lost out on, my child wasnt runing or making any noise he was doing his own thing, i will be tell my friends and family about this branch, maybe some customer service training is needed on how to speak to customers.

Not the Sahara Grill it used to be. Was the go to restaurant 10 years ago but not any more in my opinion. Took the wife and kids there on Sunday. Ordered buffalo wings and dynamite shrimp.. Both over cooked, hard and way too spicy. Kids got the chicken strips and mini chicken burger with curly fries which they demolished. Wife ordered the half chicken with coleslaw and mash and I ordered the lamb steak fillet with chips. My wife's half chicken was covered in masala and spices and was inedible due to the amount of spice on there. When asked, they said we needed to tell them we wanted mild as their chicken comes pre seasoned!? He changed the one piece that was left after struggling to get through the first. As for me, I asked for a medium well steak. They overcooked it and it wasn't medium well but rather, well done and dried out. I didn't complain as I don't like wasting food. The sauce on there was extremely spicy. So I ordered a lychee cocktail. Which was literally a glass of syrup. It was that sweet. I had to keep adding water to the glass to dilute it down. Was really dissapointed. Went to pay and was billed £100. Now I don't mind paying a premium for good food but this was extortion and definitely not worth it. To top it off, my wife and I have been on the toilet seat since Sunday with diarrhoea. Will not be going there again. Spend your hard earned money elsewhere.

We just visited Sahara Grill to celebrate my mum’s birthday for dinner. I was able to reserve a table so easily online without having to call in. We went as a family and was greeted into the restaurant with so much warmth and hospitality. We were looked after by Iqbal who was simply an asset to the restaurant. He gave a 5* service and made our evening so special. He certainly was the highlight of the day and we will certainly visit again for the service and amazing food. The food was delicious and not greasy! We were amazed by the robots that carried all the dishes and it was great touch! I also visited the washrooms and I was pleased to see how clean it was. I would highly recommend visiting Sahara Grill in Gants Hill. You certainly won’t be disappointed. Thanks for making my mum’s special day memorable for her!

Foods pretty much same although this stores steak come in all funny shapes! SERVICE WAS AWFUL, even on a not so busy at all Sunday. Won’t be coming back here. P.s. they are mis-selling water, providing a 1.5l bottle of Spring water instead of Mineral water as stated in the menu (it’s also £5.50 for 1.5l bottle). When asked manger they had no idea what the difference was, he was insisting it’s the same SMH.

Been here after a while. Food was very good. My friend got a beef Riz Frite, looked delicious and I just had a flame grilled chicken. My issue is when I paid, the waiter took the bill and cash and disappeared. I presumed he would be back with my change. if it was a couple of quid it would have been fine. I won't name the waiter, maybe he just got busy with something else, but I couldn't wait around as it was nearing prayer time so had to leave. So maybe be a bit cautious about that.

I have been coming to this restaurant for 12 years now. On our latest visit we ordered steaks, sautes and drinks. Yet the waiter told us off for bringing our own water bottles. Said it was management policy not to allow drinks from outside. I can understand not allowing soft drinks from outside but this is probably the only restaurant in the UK that doesn't allow our own water bottles! They make all this money yet they want more. We decided to skip desserts at this place and will be thinking twice about returning!

I would not recommend Shinwary We ordered from their Afghani menu, but the experience was disappointing. The food was bland and lacked the authentic flavors we expected. Portions were small for the price, and the service was slow. Overall, it fell far short of what we had hoped for.
