Ever since uncle’ kebab opened years ago, I loved it. 😍 It’s delicious and flavourful especially the lamb! It’s a family owned little place that takes pride in service and quality.

I have always loved their fresh jalebis but the food quality seems to have gone down. The jalebis I picked up today seemed like were made 2 weeks ago and had a weird smell

Awesome! The service was very quick, and the chicken shawarma wrap I had was amazing. I also bought some Barbicans, and those were very good as well.

This feels like a local shop in turkey run by your beloved uncle. The food is made with love and it shows. This was the best shawarma I was ever given and I am glad I live in an age where I got to experience this. The prices are cheap and the portions are generous. I would eat here every day if I could.

As someone who has strong gluten intolerance, I love that so much of what they offer is gluten free. LOVE their pakoras, lentil/veggie soup and other offerings. Wonderful family with everything made in house. Great cookies too!

Vegetarian options: Love their options for delicious veggie stew and pakoras. Many other gluten-free options as well.
