Found this little gem on the way home from a car show in Headingham. Family run business with very warm and friendly owners and staff. Service was excellent and food very good!! The complimentary cake was so tasty, Highly recommend The Shish Turkish Restaurant. If we ever up this way again, will revisit. 👍

I normally have a takeaway but it is my favourite by far! Excellent meat, rice, bread and salad plus 2 x sauces. Feedback - never lose sight of the salad, a good salad makes a Turkish meal. 💪💪💪💪

We went to Shish last night for my birthday. I was so impressed with the service and food was outstanding. Rose was absolutely sweet as ever, along with her other supporting staff. They all made my bday evening extra special by being full of love, light and happiness. We will most definitely be visiting more often.

Friendly staff and great food. We arrived about 8.20 on Sunday evening (having been let down by another restaurant where we had a reservation because they had run out of food!) The lady serving couldn't have made us more welcome, nothing was too much trouble, she was just lovely. The menu choice is good and the food was delicious. Even though they we supposed to close at 9, we were given dessert and coffee and nothing was too much trouble. The Shish turned what could gave been a really disappointing evening into a really fun one. Thank you The Shish.

Found this gem by chance. Now our go to place of choice. Rose, the most excellent hostess; welcoming, friendly, putting the customer at the core at all times. Most knowledgible and informative made us feel like vips. Nothing was too much trouble. Professional from start to finish. Food freshly cooked, generous portions, delicious beyond belief. It was great value for money and impeccable. The turkish wine stands out as better than most other well known brands. We cant wait to return again as we know the standard is 5 star on every level. Thank you.

Five stars all the way for Shish Bar and Grill in Halstead! This friendly, family-run establishment has truly won me over with its warm atmosphere and impeccable service. And let's talk about the food – absolutely phenomenal! From succulent shish kebabs to mouthwatering grilled specialties, every dish is a culinary delight. But what truly adds magic to the experience is the talented magician they have on board – engaging, entertaining, and just downright impressive (and yes, I might be a tad biased as it's me!). So, if you're looking for a memorable dining experience filled with delicious food and a sprinkle of enchantment, look no further than Shish Bar and Grill. Highly recommended!"

In all honesty, we haven’t actually eaten here (yet!) but wanted to leave a review based on our experience tonight. We walked past this evening with our two children whilst trick or treating. A kind woman (sorry, didn’t catch any names!) beckoned us in from the window and gave our children lollipops and sweets. They were incredibly sweet, interacted with them both and seemed genuinely kind and generous. The atmosphere within the restaurant was lovely and warm- will 100% return as customers!

The food here is amazing! The staff are nice. The service is good. The decor is a bit stiff & formal. It would be more fun if it had a better playlist & some more fun injected into the decor through colour & pattern. The prices are a bit on the steep side & there is not enough choice of Turkish inspired desserts. It’s a pity because I love this place & wish I could visit more often but it’s just too expensive. I’ve been a few times as I live close by but I don’t ever remember seeing any specials that are a great deal. A tasting menu would be a great idea!

Nice design of restaurant and comfortable to sit in. Chicken was ok. Meat in the moussaka was plain, dry and flavourless. Rushed out at the end of the night just before closing time. Told dessert wasn't an option and told to come in earlier next time. Yep, can u believe it? No discussion of this when we entered the restaurant at 10pm. Spent £150 in that short period of time and felt rushed. No need for this -especially as a private restautant. Its not like its a big chain restarant. Was expecting more of a homely, personal touch. Not a great way to ensure your customers return.
