Shinwari - Redbridge

I had a fantastic experience at this restaurant with my family. The service was exceptional, with a very polite and friendly waitress. I loved the chappali kabab, namkeen lamb karahi, and the soft nan. Overall, it was a wonderful dining experience.

The Chapli kebab at this restaurant really stood out to me. The Daal was also incredibly tasty and well-prepared. The customer service was excellent, with the staff being very friendly and accommodating despite any issues that arose.

I inquired with the server if there was a change in ownership, but was told that it was the same owner. I placed an order for kabli pulawo with chapli kebab, naan, and a drink for my wife. When the food arrived, the kabli pulawo was old and the rice was hard, not fresh. The naan seemed to be made from old flour. When I requested tap water, the server initially said they only served bottled water, but later brought me burning hot water when my wife asked a male waiter for tap water. Previously, I had experienced friendly Afghan waiters who understood how to provide good customer service, especially with cultural food. I usually left them generous tips, but this time I even collected my change of one pound and five pence. I believe that the owner needs to improve the quality of the food and service, as customers expect good food and caring customer service for what they pay. Additionally, the restaurant should consider accepting card payments to make it easier for customers and ensure they return. Overall, I hope these comments are taken constructively to help the restaurant improve and retain customers. Thank you.

Me and my girlfriend had heard from a friend that Afghan/Peshwari food is the best in the world so found this place to try it out. It was a Wednesday evening during eat out to help out and it was packed. There were lots of people standing outside to come in, the owner said we could sit inside on some seats which were very comfortable. I liked how it was very traditional with lots of people sitting on the floor and eating. We did have to wait a long time to be seated, we ordered a lot of food and it took a long time to arrive. We were the only white people in there at the time and the owner came over to us many times to explain why the food took so long, he explained that the food is made to order and then went on to explain how its good etc which we thought was a really nice touch. We were given a huge portion of food, rice and bread. It was quite honestly THE BEST tasting food we had had. The lamb dish we had was out of this world, bits of soggy bread within it too. We ate as much as we could and then we were given a container to put our leftovers in which I had for lunch the next day. I cannot wait to go back here.

It was delecious. Never had such a great food. will love to go again with friends . My family was lost in the heavenly taste ..... truely it was mouth watering. Great staff and service .
