    Don't waste your money! Where can I start, went here tonight as I saw the hype on Instagram and was interested to go. Our food took 55mins to come, when it did it was cold and tasteless. The pricing is shocking honestly.. If the food was good then I would happily pay. But this food isn't worth it. You get better at your local kebab shop. We ordered a mix grill, lamb chops were very chewy and hard, chicken was dry, only thing that was OK was the wings. Rest was nasty. Came with bland boiled white rice.. No salad either!!!! Mac and cheese was OK. Dirty chips was terrible, just uncooked chips and store brought toppings including the Chilli sauce. Can you believe there was no chilli and garlic sauce instead we were given a side of shop brought sauces will attach a pic. We ordered bread on the side it was a pitta bread? Just can't see what the point of that. Atmosphere It's very loud, almost club like. Honestly for me it was a no. The lights went out and a man with a mask was cooking with flames.... Then everyone rushed to the front blocking the view... The decor is very nice... That is the main thing, if your going for a pretty place then this is the spot if your going for food then this isn't the place. It felt like I was stuck in a Instagram post, people just taking pictures of over priced food and loud music. I would recommend that they stick to thier mocktails and have appetisers instead as they couldn't cope with the food orders. I saw many people complaining and waiting ages. I personally wouldn't go again!!!

    Absolutely loved eating at My Shish, the staff are kind and friendly, we asked if we could pray and the facilitated our request. The restaurant is big and has parking on site. The decor is fresh with two floors, the upper floor has a balcony and has newly been decorated with summer flowers theme. There is a shisha lounge at the back but we did not visit it on this occasion. The food is of a good quality, it is priced accordingly. You are paying a premium for this. The tomahawk (although its small in comparison to many other places) it is cooked to medium or medium rare is very tasty. The ribs are to die for! Absolutely amazing. The burgers are of a good quality. Be prepared to spend a few pennies if you want high quality food. This was an enjoyable experience and i will be returning with friends and family.

    Decent local halal steak establishment. Has the flamboyant look appeal. Upon arrival, had to wait 10 minutes to be seated even though I had my table booked and the restaurant wasn’t full. Lamb sushi starter was okay, but needed some seasoning as it did taste bland with the avocado. The steak was tender and cooked how I wanted it. The drinks were refreshing. The only gripe I have is the price. Way too expensive considering the inexperienced service staff.

  • 3/5 Halal Food G. 2 years ago on Google
    A spot with a wow factor is a new FULLY HALAL spot located in North East London with a Turkish inspired menu with a great atmosphere. This place is great for the gram, ideal for nights out, theres food cooked with fireshows, food cut at the table, flower walls 😉, cool vibes, modern clean decor and a car park on site which is very convenient (can get filled up, I went on a Tues at 7.30pm) I'm not really one that goes to restaurants for the vibes, but I enjoyed the atmosphere created here. What I tried 👇 Drinks 🍹 Pina colada £8 Caribbean fresh £9 Le petit tequila £5 Appetizers🦐 Shredded Beef tacos £11.49 Dynamite prawns £11.49 My Shish BBQ ribs £18.89 Sweet potato fries £5.49 Mains 🍴 Cheesey Meat Ball £22.95 Special Fillet Mignon 250g with Fire show £42 The drinks I had were excellent, I recommend this place more for "vibes" rather the food, as it has areas of improvement. I was invited, but I have to give you my honest opinion. Every dish (apart from BBQ ribs) had issues. If I was a paying customer, I would of sent back a lot of food to the Kicthen. Dynamite Strimp were very poor, no batter, sauce lacked flavour, even the colours looked wrong. The headline dish was the £42 fillet mignon thats served with the fire show featured in the video. You are paying for the show here which I enjoyed, but the steak was not great, I requested medium rare but most slices were over cooked rendering it tough and chewy. Shredded Beef (tacos) was good, just the taco itself was stale and soft. If you get the beef ribs, it's enough for 2 people to share as you get 2 beef short ribs. These were good. The prices are also expensive for the location, more like Central London prices and from looking around the restaurant, the most popular item ordered was a burger and chips, maybe due to the moderate price of around £15 Service: I was invited, staff were told to give me extra attention. Although some looked inexperienced, staff were friendly and attentive, no major issues. Overall I think the current 3 star rating is fair. The food is average but the decor and atmosphere is good.

    I came here with my family for a birthday. I'll put in the pros and cons for this place. Pros: - The restaurant has a car park which is great - the service was immaculate (shout out to Gideon) - they have a prayer room - no alcohol is served (fully HMC) - they had some entertainment walking around doing card tricks Cons: - the food was mediocre (and food is of course the most important thing for a restaurant). The best thing was the Mac and cheese (but still not great) and the BBQ ribs starter (but that was served with a stale pitta bread) - for the mains we got the lamb shank and the Angus burger. The burger was over done and the lamb shank tasted of nothing. - the mocktails drinks were too sweet.l, just full of sugar - the 2/5 was because the food was not good and it was quite pricey as well (£110 spent roughly), Food takes precedence for the review

    I was pleasantly surprised because I had read some bad reviews, but I did not experience any of those issues. Despite parking spaces being limited and being a sunday before a bank holiday, we managed to find parking although I will also advise to go in earlier incase as the spaces are limited. I found the staff very welcoming and polite, especially Shareef and Zain who were always serving with a smile. The decor in the restaurant was pleasant. And now the main part, the food! We opted for beef sushi as starters. Whilst I really enjoyed the dish being prepped with fire at the table, I found the flavours a bit lacking on that dish. However, we thoroughly enjoyed all of the rest of our dishes such as the special filetmignon, the tomahawk steak, the golden burger, the brownies and the golden baklava to finish. I found the meat to be very soft and delicious and I definitely need the prep recipe for the asparagus! The fireshow and the salt bae gestures was a great touch that added magic to the dish and it enhanced the experience. The mocktails were delicious and definitely instaworthy, albeit I would have preferred it to be a real cocktail. All in all I enjoyed my time there and I will be back with friends.

    First time visit here. Tuesday night so it was quiet, no parking issues. Book online first. You're greeted at the door and directed to your table. This place is big and spacious. It is expensive but worth every penny. You must try the dynamite prawns and wings. The flavours were just right; not overpowering. The signature burger was 10/10 amazing. I took my time, bite after bite enjoyed the cheese, pickles and mostly the meat and grilled onions. You have to try their steak. The flavours and taste was parallel to the steak of the Oblex restaurant at the Shad. Portions are fairly large so go hungry. We are planning to go their again very soon.

    We loved our time here - great food and shisha! Perfect for a special occasion or just a good munch. We went on a Monday and it was really quiet (which worked well for us!) The decor is super nice, both in the restaurant and back. The steaks were seasoned nicely and the shisha was prepped really well. Can't fault the guys on anything. A decent steak will set you back ~£30. Add a drink and side to that and the costs add up. But well worth it!

    First time trying Wagyu steak, it was deliciously juicy. Best steak I had to date! The atmosphere is amazing, plenty of parking and the staff are friendly. Would recommend!!

    They try make this place to be a fine dining venue but food, drinks and customer service is not up to that standard. Felt like the food and drinks we had was poor quality and not worth the price at all. The restaurant decor is beautiful and plenty of car park space. A average restaurant with a overpriced menu for average food with no quality. We was very disappointed! The 2 stars are for the restaurant decor.

    Went here on a Friday night, my friend and I were more than a little hungry. Our stomachs rumbled, and we were keen to unwind and enjoy some tasty food. The venue looks great and has a nice outdoor area where you can dine when the sun is out. And, of course, inside, there is a lovely flower wall perfect for pictures. Upon entering the restaurant, the atmosphere was great. The restaurant was bustling with activity. The music was a tad too loud but enjoyable. However, the volume became slightly annoying as the night wore on, and we attempted to speak to one another. The My Shish staff were polite and helpful in providing details on popular dishes and ingredients. Some of the menu prices had our eyebrows lifting in surprise, but we were still looking forward to ordering. Once our orders were in, we found ourselves waiting longer than expected, the restaurant was having a busy evening. From the menu, we ordered one starter Sushi (flamed at the table) with 'sushi rice, avocado sauce, soy sauce, crispy fries' for £13. My Shish's showmanship when it comes to the restaurant's flaming of food at the table is a nice spectacle. It also makes for a great Snapchat video. The addition of soy sauce and crispy fries certainly improved the taste of beef sushi for me. The beef needed to be slightly thinner. One piece was too large and led to the beef flavour overpowering my senses. For the main course, we ordered what sounded like two very delicious dishes. Char-grilled chicken steak with 'french beans and roasted cherry tomatoes served with rice'. The second dish was 'slow-roasted lamb shank, served with mashed potato and enriched with rich tomato sauce'. Overall the main dishes were exceptionally disappointing. The flavour punch we had hoped for didn't occur. There were no sighs of pleasure as we took a bite of each dish. The lamb was beautifully cooked and fell off the bone, but lacked seasoning and flavour. While the mash was nice and creamy, the tomato sauce did not complement the lamb. The chicken steak looked moorish, but was dry. It desperately needed to be coated in a sauce. I decided against ordering a sauce separately at an additional charge. In other restaurants I have been to, there has been a lovely sauce lightly dripped over the chicken steak. A number of restaurants also have their chicken steak drizzled with a sauce. In addition to another in a small dish (giving the dinner the option of selecting the sauce flavour). I did enjoy the roasted cherry tomatoes and the french beans were well-cooked. Yet the plain rice served, did not add any valuable flavour dimension to the dish. The aesthetics and showmanship at My Shish are great. But, the food did not have us leaning back in our seats with smiles. We left My Shish truly underwhelmed and questioning where the flavour was.

    As someone who's been blessed to travel around the world and someone who dines out every week with family & friends all over London, this place is just too pricey. Although the food was good, it just doesn't make sense at this price point, especially when you compare to other premium establishments such as Elvet, Steak Co, Asado etc. You can't try be like Nusret and just charge a little less and think that's it! Also, I'm sure you do this intentionally because you don't really want kids to come to the place, but not having kid's meals deters families with kids dining here and makes it far too expensive for a dad to pay for the whole family, as main meals will have to be ordered. We were a family of 9 with a bill of £400 split between 2 dads! And four Lamb chops for almost £27 is ridicilous. Dynamite prawns were poor as all the batter falls off and were overcooked. Four prawns for over 12 quid!?...Really? But the Tomahawk was priced fairly reasonably at £52 as 2 people can share that. Seems like most people have the same annoyance with the price. And the fact that they wouldn't serve tap water was another annoyance. I think you've missed a trick here, because when you look at other large restaurants with a large car park, they're always packed with families 7 days a week. Such as Saffron Kitchen, Gokyuzu etc. Also, although the decore was nice and modern, the place looked a bit empty as the tables were bare and laid out oddly. We really wanted to like this place because it's HMC and has a car park. We may re-visit if the menu is re-evaluated.

    We went on a Thursday, resturant was practically empty. Its an instagrammable location which you can see from the photos. Food was not as good considering paying so much. Drinks are not as good as other places. The setting however is very nice. Service was slow only one waitress working at the time. However she did everything she could to make it pleasant

  • 2/5 Nazmul H. 4 months ago on Google
    Visited the restaurant for a Christmas dinner from my workplace. My food was ok, nothing especial. My colleague who sat next to me was finding difficult to chop the steak, it looked like rubber or under cook. Not many customers were there, yet service was below the standard, largely because only 2 waiters were serving such a big restaurant. We had to call repeatedly for missing drink and missing cutleries, missing sauces. The waiting time was very long. The price of the food was unnecessarily higher than similar restaurant in that area. My colleagues told me similar experience, particularly they too didn’t enjoy the food despite spending on average £70 per person. Probably won't come back again.

    Good atmosphere, Food was average and service could be better and they don't serve tab water. Must try Milk cake Pull N Pour & Avocado Salad. Also bit expensive for weekdays as there's no Belly dance or Fire Performance.

    Was an all female group, all family members. We had an excellent time. Food was absolutely delicious, beautifully presented. The atmosphere was so nice, and watching that fire show cooking thing was fantastic! It was a lovely evening

    I adore my shish! The decorations are crazy and the service was brilliant!They wished my dad the best birthday 🎂. Food was delicious I recommend this but it is quite expensive so maybe get it if you want to treat yourself then it’s definitely worth it

    The decorations were amazing but it a long time for them to actually serve the food, the food was delicious 😋 and the pineapple drink was yummy with a bit of pineapple on the edge, the bread dipped in the tomato sauce 🤤 it was nice and hot which was good about it these kind of restaurants are good because of the decorations and colours but the service wasn't too good because there was only a few other people and we were the first to order but it took a long time for them to serve us but that is why I rate it a 3 out of 5.

    Tried the brunch at Myshish and it was okay. Most of the food lacks seasoning as can be seen and it's basically lazy cooking. The waffles weren't crispy but the chicken was exceptional. Food took 45 mins to arrive which was quite long considering there were only about 3 groups in the restaurant. The vibe is very nice and decor is good. Most noteworthy point is probably the pricing. Most of their breakfast items are under £10 which is great. In summary I wouldn't go out of my way to come here but if you want a decent brunch with a nice atmosphere it's a shout.

    It was a great experience. The steak was great but the service was very poor. My friend was served food first and it took them over half an hour to serve my food, purely for that reason I would rate them a little lower. If I was purely rating food then I would give them 4stars. I enjoyed my stake, it was perfectly made.

    I was here Saturday night for a meal. I had great expectations as I have driven past here over the years and it looks so nice from the outside. Where shall I begin. First off I didn't know their drinks were non alcohol. No fault of theirs. Mocktails were ok, manageable but I've had better. I've had Mocktail pina colada elsewhere and it was delicious so more effort should be made made. My friends all said the same in that the Mocktails were too sweet. I had the grilled halloumi to start. They were well portioned so I shared it with my friends. Five of us ordered the lamb shanks with mashed potato and we waited eagerly for it. Nearly an hour later it finally arrived. It looked impressive but it was luke warm. I was so fed up by this point I just ate it. It was ok. Too much rosemary. I didn't finish it. My friend ordered the mushroom spaghetti. She said it was bland and only found 2 very small bits of mushroom in the dish. She didn't finish her meal either. During the whole time we were there there was a cold breeze coming through the vent. Many people sat with their coats on. Staff were not very helpful. They don't offer tap water so you'd have to pay for bottled water. Overall our experience was not good. My friend did speak to management and explained we didn't enjoy our evening. They did take some money off our bill but I wanted a good night out which we didn't get. I did however enjoy the time with my friends. We did a secret santa 🎅 Oh yeah I forgot there was some entertainment when we first arrived so I had such high hopes but alas it wasn't to be. I won't be back!!

    A relaxed, chilled Sunday with my friends. This is a nice place to come for a chilled, relaxed dinner and shisha. The service was good, pleasant atmosphere, classic decor, good/ chilled music. I ordered the Angus steak burger, and it was juicy but could have had more sauce/flavour to it. Fries come with the burger. However, the fries are too thin for my liking. Need to definitely change the fries to STEAK chips? The lamb chops were overly cooked but tasteful, haha. Ordered dynamite prawns, my favourite, never go wrong with dynamite prawns. The restaurant had limited dessert options and would have liked more. Overall, the lounge was relaxing, and had a good evening. 😀
