I felt deceived and taken for a ride. Even though the place is set up as a restaurant, plates were not available. My mini snack was put into an environmentally unfriendly fast food box. What makes business owners that they can get away long term with such bad service? They may have got my dollars that day but lost out on future visits.

The wife and I shared "The Feast", $30NZ for two meat skewers and a good variety of colorful extras I can't name except the hummus.

The prices are good and the kebab is hot, fresh, and tasty. They also have a consistent A health grade which is good to see. I would return for the very friendly man who works there alone. He gives off such a good vibe, I just bought a kebab off him but it felt as if I had made a friend. If you want a hot and nutritious meal quickly this is a great establishment. They have a tv on the wall playing Turkish programs which was interesting but I wish it had English subtitles so I could understand the jokes when I wait.

We decided to try this lovely place, i don't think this place has been here long but it seems really busy in terms of takeout. I guess everyone loves a good kebab !! But let's talk about the food, which is what we're here for !! Two things we got, the chicken shish (large) and a little share platter (chicken and beef)- I'm horrible with name so you're going to have to go by my description and photo ! Lols So firstly the chicken shish, the large platter comes with the chicken, rice, hummus, yoghurt with an olive on top. Flavor I will have to say 3/5 it was nice but I felt that it was lacking that kick or punch. Whilst I don't know how real Turkish food taste... I feel like they like their flavors so I feel like the chicken should have a bit more kick in them. The rice was light and fluffy!! The hummus was really nice to have with the chicken and the little green thing on the side (again I AM SORRY !! I am horrible with names!!). Next the platter! It comes with beef and chicken shavings (well that's what I call them cause they gotta shave the meat whilst it goes around and around and around ) The platter comes with Turkish bread, olives, humus and yoghurt like dip and salad. I may have forgotten a few things but that's what's the picture is for !! Lols, overall the platter was like an average platter you would get (i.e. Cheese platter) Overall the place isn't too bad for a kebab stop or for a little Shish or even dessert ! Even though I haven't tried it lols. But with the total bill being nearly 50$ it's a little disappointing! But hey that's my say, I still think y'all should give it a try !! Peace !!

They have all the usuals like fish, hotdogs, spring rolls, hamburgers etc. And when you ask for a potato fritter they usually give you about four! Perfect if you've got hungry teenagers to fill up. I've had their pan fried fish once before, as I find batter a little hard to stomach being allergic to gluten, and it was really nice. However, every other time I've been there they've told me sharply that they're too busy to cook pan-fried. That's understandable but it has made me not want to go there as much unfortunately as I'm never sure if they'll be able to do it. The chips are really good though, so I just chow down on those instead!
