DO NOT COME TO THIS SHOP!!! The behaviour of the employee (an old man around his 50s) at the front side of the shop was very ill mannered and tried trapping me in their disgusting business technique. I was first told that I could pay by card and was never informed by them that I could only pay by card if my bill was over £10 when my bill was actually under £10, and I was told to pay after I ate so I don’t have any option left but to buy more food to make my bill over £10. They lied to me, were very rude and started verbally abusing me about my ethnical background. I really hope some action is taken in improving customer service instead of deceiving customers, and I absolutely do not recommend anyone to visit this shop.

The food was cold, when I asked to get it heated they said I should just eat it and that it was cooked not too long ago. I asked if the kebab was lamb and he replied by shouting "LAMB!" a dozen times. The lamb kebab had no meat content, very little, mostly onion. Avoid. Nasty place to eat. No hygiene. The waiter was holding my roll with his bare hands.

If you're gonna try their food then only the samosa and chaat are great but more importantly the service is so bad that you would think they are doing you a favour by taking your money and just for that I would not give them my business. Shop is filthy and the equipment clearly needs replacing.

The old, fat man in the glass partitioned counter outside is as insolent as he is filthy. I went there this evening and he totally ignored me and many other customers. He was more interested in have a ridiculously loud yelling competition with some people inside the eatery and totally ignored customers. He also used his bare hands to handle the cooked foods and bag them up - utterly unhygienic and not fit for employment. Other reviewers have also witnessed and highlighted the filthy nature of this man in the reviews below. I, therefore, left without eating anything. You should avoid this eatery if cleanliness and hygiene is important to you. Nasty.

Guy serving is very rude with attitude for absolutely no reason, they pick and chose who they let use the card machine in hopes of avoiding VAT, bro needs to learn some customer service. Far better options like Nagina. On a street with so much competition please be nice to your customers. In today’s day and age cash is barely carried, so just let people pay by card lol.

One of the greatest halal restaurants in London. very fast service and you can get your food in less then 5 mins if you dine. However the atmosphere isn't that comfortable though, In winter you need to eat your food while shivering.So is think taking away is better.They could also improve on their systems. Instead of accepting cash, they could also accept card.

FIRSTLY : Food is NOT FRESH. They buy food from catering companies and serve after warming up in the microwave. Nothing is actually cooked fresh exept except for the Naan bread. All food is either pre-cooked or half-cooked before being brought to the shop. HYGIENE : VERY POOR! The toilet is messy, the staff clothes sometimes stink. The staff sometimes handle food with hands. CUSTOMER SERVICE : staff is often very invasive in the name of friendliness. I personally had an experience that the staff member was starring at me and actually lost in his own world, which was upsetting and off-putting. CASH ONLY!!! you are in for a surprise if you order your food and realise you don't have cash with you. You got to walk a while to get to a cash point and then when you return. You might find that your food had been sold off because think you wouldn't return.

Initially, the customer service was impeccable with caring staff with a positive can do attitude towards customers. We were treated with utmost respect care and a positive attitude which made the atmosphere a comfortable place to be in. Regarding the food, it was simply amazing with a unique taste not in comparison to other shops. The person at the serving place was a young man who made us feel extremely comfortable and as a matter of fact we formed a friendship with him! It was a delight visiting shezan catering. -kanwal.

I had breakfast here today: Halwa, Chana & Puri portion: I was given 4 tablespoons of Chana made from the ready made Chana in tins, in a watery sauce with Haldi in it. It tasted awful ! The Halwa portion was just 3 tablespoons and the consistency was very thin. There was no achar (pickle) served and when you asked for it, they gave me thick sliced onions dipped in something red ! However, the Puri's were great. Hygiene very poor: Toilet and sink was super dirty and purple bin looks like it hasn't been cleaned for years - I wouldn't be surprised if you caught MRSA from here.

One of the number Pakistani restaurants on the high street. Very authentic food. Reasonable prices. Hygiene rating 2 (rated by council Nov 2022), but if you can go past that its all good. Other reviews complaining about customer service are not far away from truth. Its not bad, but its peculiar in its own way. I think it just adds to the authenticity of the place. Overall if you can swallow your pride and not expect ego stroke you will have a good experience there. Food is amazing. Can get busy in the afternoon, also time when customer service starts to slide down, but they're doing their best. They also have chaat corner, how cool is that?!

Keep an eye 👁 on their pricing. They do not write ✍️ the order on paper and later try to take benefit of the doubt in charging few quids extra. They even serve wrong food to what you order.

Bad customer service, rude staff including owners, no fresh food, no card payment. An year ago I had given them 4 stars which had to be changed due to my recent visit. I think now when the shop is running and getting enough business you guys don't take care at all. I hate shops where staff or their owners have a very rude behaviour and exactly same thing happened here. I am not going to write whole story here but just wanted to say most of asian/desi shops lack a good customer service. Also they would not accept Card payment at all, only Cash (This has been observed on many shops to avoid paying accurate tax).
