I’m disappointed. From the outside, the store looks a bit confusing. Not sure if it’s a chippy, American themed or whatever. My curiosity got the better of me so I went in. The service was good. Good customer service and very attentive.What caught me off guard is the price. It’s really expensive for what it’s worth. The chips aren’t great. You can get better from maccies. The chicken was seasoned good but i could have made better at home. The Mac and cheese is what spoilt it for me. It wasn’t great. Not much flavour and not very presentable.The tacos. I have really mixed emotions; when I first took a bite it was actually nice but the more I was eating the more I couldn’t stand it. It was getting chewier and saltier. I wouldn’t come back and it’s a shame because it has so much potential.

Overall guys are really friendly, food was really good could do with some more cheese in the philly to be honest. Also could do with more seating as they have space for some would do great for colder days. Could do with some background music but honestly just for the food, it is amazing so well worth it. Bit pricey but that is worth it once you try the food.

Came here for the first time ever. One thing I never knew someone so young could actually manage an establishment which is better than half of the takeaways that exist right now. All the workers are friendly and can actually smile which you don’t get often and the uniform looks sick.I did have to wait a bit of time but when you’re getting quality food that’s not frozen then what do you expect. I ordered the Philly steak and cheese, birria tacos and the kids deal. They forgot my fries but this was sorted in literally 30 seconds.Everything is made infront of your face and you can even see them seasoning the food. I came from over 10 miles away and I’ll come back any day of the week. For the price it’s worth the taste and the portion size completely.Keep up the good work guys they definitely deserve more recognition than they already have. 1 more thing which is important is the fact they are fully halal when they don’t need to be inshallah they keep going strong.Thank you guys very much amazing food.

Came here for the first time around 5.30pm was served and got tacos and Philly steak fries. Good service and guys serving were polite. Food took around 25 minutes. When food did arrive it was amazing. Tacos were very good ( beef) could’ve done with some more sauce or salad inside but wasn’t offered this. The Philly steak fries were good but once again could’ve done with more sauce/ an option to add other sauces.Overall great service good food and will be back again here.

Went here for food after seeing it reviewed by food review club. Went with my 2 sons, sister and brother in law. Can’t say we were disappointed. The service was excellent. All staff were friendly and talkative. There was a small wait for the food but taking into account how busy they were it was served in a more than reasonable time. When it was served it was well worth the wait. The food was piping hot and the flavours were unreal. My kids even when full didn’t want to stop eating. We ordered a lot of food and not 1 bit could be criticised. The food is absolute spot on

Not worth a 50 minute wait and the £25 bill. Quite a disappointment, was excited to try this place and it didn't live up to expectations. Maybe it was a bad day in the kitchen but the philly steak was average, a bit too much fat in the steak which made it chewy. The fries had a bizarre fish taste which was a complete waste, one of the portions was served with the prawns so I initially thought it was that but when I tried the portion of separate fries it was exactly the same!! Don't know if it is fried together but something isn't right there.I really do hope that the owner can take this on board, you have a box of gloves but they aren't being used by all your staff. The young chap taking payment was eating and drinking whilst also touching his head and then brining the cheese slices from the back onto the small counter which is so unhygienic. The chap on the grill was wiping the surface clean with detergent and then touching the bun rolls without washing his hands. I just can't understand how the owner can allow this to happen in front of his own eyes. You have gloves right there, make the staff wear them!!! The cheese slices should also be refrigerated or at least covered. Please take these points regarding hygiene on board and sort the fries out as its very off-putting.

Me and the misses had a drive down from cannock to scran man. After seeing there tiktok video's of the food. I had a philly cheese steak. To witch i was very disappointed as it looked Notting like the video. No cheese onit and very dry. And the chips had a tiny amount of sauce where the video's are lashed in sauce. Shame really had high hopes of a good feed but couldn't eat it to dry. So anyone driving down don't get your hope's up to much. Sorry about the review mate

Me and my partner went for food a few weeks ago. I had bbq chicken burger meal and she had a Philly cheese steak. Honestly the best food we have ever tasted! Honestly the most fire food man! We did have to wait about 30/40 mins for the food but it was well worth the wait. We were just disappointed that there was going to be such a long wait on the Mac and cheese but other then that it well worth the visit.

Definitely one of the BEST meals I've eaten to date! Highly recommend if you're looking for something bursting with flavour. Before leaving home I told my husband I felt like eating something sweet, salty, spicy and FLAVOURFUL - this had all of it so wonderfully put together. We ordered the Philly Cheese Steak, Louisiana burger, fries, and wings - every single item was spot on with the flavour, presentation, and taste. The only disappointment was on my part for not trying it sooner!
