Driving down Roundhay Road there would have to be something distinctive to stand out from all the…read moreother Take-away places contributing to light pollution on such a scale it would rival the Blackpool lights! Out steps Shai Nan Kebab! I have been coming here for Kebabs and take aways for at least 6 years and have never been dissapointed. Sadly, last year it was closed for a spell after a fire destroyed most of the inside yet the new place is bigger and better than ever. Most of the skewered kebabs are kept in the chiller fridge for you to salivate over, as well as a great selection of Pakoras/samosa/bahji's. There is nothing done to any of this food in secret- the kitchen is all open plan as well as the prep area so you can see the cleanliness of the food/utensils/staff/prep areas. The skewered kebabs are cooked fresh to order in the tandor so there is a bit of waiting for your order but hey, who doesn't appreciate a wait when you can get to see the life-cycle of the food you are going to eat. The chapatis/rotis/naans are all freshly rolled and cooked to order so again, no 'kept' food. The menu is quite accomodating for most tastes- kebabs/curries/chicken/burgers/fish/chicken portions and then a new selection of desserts and ice cream shakes. Personally, we usually go for the 'Shai Nan Special kebab' which @ £7.50 offers chicken, lamb,shish.donner and masses of salad all wrapped in a freshly griddled naan with lashings of chilli and yoghurt sauce! Definitely one to open the top button of the jeans for! The Mr and i popped by here Sunday eve and got a Lamb tikka naan and I just had a craving for the donner meat and chips- absolutely spot on for both. Even after a 20 min wait we were still happy. Like i said, there are a lot of Take away shops on this shopping parade yet I've never considered trying any of the others as Shai Nan has never let me down and with the regular staff, open-plan kitchen & prep area and a great reputation I can quite justify driving out of my way to go here as I'm guarenteed to get exactly what I want-without fail!

I called the establishment and asked for fresh and they refused and said that the driver was too busy. This is not acceptable sending out badly cooked and low grade food of this standard and it's a shame because the pizza was lovely. I have to say though, this is not the first time that we have had very bad customer service from this establishment.

Admittedly, it's been a while since I last availed myself of their fast foodly offerings, but it…read morewas a visit of note given that it's one of the few spots serving up swift late night bites of a non-awful variety. They do pizzas, chicken, burgers, and all the usual suspects, but the noticeable difference is they they do them rather well. The service was friendly and fast, and I seem to recall (in my late night state) that they even serve up tins of lager for those wishing for a night cap. That's pretty unique in itself. It's in a good location, given that the bus home is a mere moment's walk away, and whilst it's not in the best area of town, it is on a well lit and fairly busy street -no need to panic. Call in for a range of stomach fillers, post boozes, and you'll not be left wanting, not be disappointed, and not be given a rough stomach the day after. Winner. Need cash? There's a co-op hole in the wall just up the road. Done.

From the outside, Kebabish Original looks like any other greasy late-night takeaway. And to be…read morehonest, it looks a bit like that on the inside too. Head past the massive flame grill, however, and you'll find a neat little restaurant section towards the back, decked out in a surprisingly classy style. The food here is fantastically varied, from meaty mixed grills and sirloin steaks to curries, burgers and chips, making Kebabish a good stop if you've got a party with mixed tastes, although they may look at you strangely when you first lead them through the unpromising front door. With cheap prices - just two quid for a burger and around a fiver for a main course - they often get busy, so get here early to get a table, or stop by after the pub for a takeaway that's a cut above the usual greasy kebab.

My experience of Kebabish began pretty much in the same way as Aneila's, twas recommended by a…read morePakistani mate who suggested we should all go one afternoon, as she thought the food was really good, she and her sister visited, and they really liked it, and on that premise, we should like it too. Six of us rolled up one lazy Thursday afternoon, and upon reaching the front door, there was an exchange of glances and looking at our dear friend as if she was loco. Stepping through the doors didn't instil any further confidences, but when we were shown our table towards the back of the restaurant, a collective sigh was exhaled. Nice and clean, laid out, smart but not too fancy, we could finally relax and let the smell of the grill hit us. With a mixture of kebabs, curries, salads and sundries on our table it was nice to see what we were glad to have ordered and what we were jealous we hadn't. I had the tandoori, which was lovely, not too dry and really nice in the flavour dept, not too overpowering without being dry and dull. I faired better than some of my eat buddies, as one found her curry to be too greasy, and used a large portion of her naan soaking it up as to detract from the taste. Whilst everything was nice, and there was nothing hideously wrong with the food, it was just nice. Nothing outstanding, but a place I wouldn't object to returning to. I was disappointed at my friend for bigging it up so much, as I said, nice, but not worthy of going out of your way when there are plenty of Indian food eateries in and around the city centre.

She only eats chips & cheese so anywhere suits her but I have to have kebab! Being as we had to trek to the station to get a taxi we passed Mill Hill. Now I'd usually ask the taxi to take a detour past my very regular kebab shop but seeing as there was no Q and the place was clean and it actually smelled appetising we popped in! Kebab meat and salad on chips and cheese is usually something ppl get wrong (there is a specific science to it!!!) but they got it right- with a very short wait. It didn't last long- tasty enough to demolish every last scrap! The downfalls here are- It gets MEGA busy and due to this is gets food remnants and packaging left on tables so doesn't look inviting They never seem to have enough staff so sometimes you have to wait AGES!(or what feels like ages when you're drunk!) They also cook food to order so there is a wait (also a plus I'd say!) All in all it's a reliable stop off point for a late night feed (just don't go past in the daylight!)

Just chipping in as a counterweight to the bad reviews Mill Hill Kebabs have got. It's obviously…read morenot a place for fine dining, but it does exactly what it says on the tin: decent kebabs, chicken and chips with no frills at a perfect post-pub price. If we're being honest, there are much more refined kebabs you can find, but it's just not that sort of place. The guys are the counter are always friendly - especially when you consider how much abuse they have to take from drunken idiots. Cheap and cheerful, which is how it should be.

Venus is basically a Turkish Supermarket, selling most of the things you would expect from a…read moresupermarket, plus lots of Turkish specialities such as baklava, which were delicious. It's bakery provides the pide for the cafe. The main attraction for my family though is the attached cafe, It is definitely a cafe rather than a restaurant, wherein lies Tim M's disappointment. It does say restaurant above the door, it has similar seating to Akbar's but the giveaways are the high steel counter and the illuminated takeaway style menu hanging from the ceiling. The kebabs are the most expensive thing on the menu at £5.50 each; for that you get a surprising quantity of lean, spicy meat in a Turkish pide, which is much more substantial than the bog standard pittas, three sorts of fresh salad and fries. I have to admit that they are fries not chips and obviously the American cut frozen style but this is a takeaway so that's hardly unusual. We always have the kebabs, lamb for the beloved and I, chicken for the youth. At some point I will have a pide, which seems to be a sort of Turkish pizza, with meat or cheese on pide dough. The coffee is from a bean to cup filter machine; I haven't checked if they do espresso ..... yet. There are a variety of cold drinks in a fridge; I tried a mint yogurt drink but didn't spot straight away that it was carbonated. Let's say it was interesting; sharp and mildly minty but I'd have been happier without the bubbles. The seating and tables are a cut above your average cafe, high backed, padded chairs and substantial black tables. The glass lights are very pretty too, I like it when people make an effort. The service isn't fast but very pleasant. Bear in mind that they are cooking the food as needed rather than serving precooked food or boil in the bag (like Bibis) and I like a leisurely lunch. oh and it is halal.
