Chef Restaurant - (Near Tower Hamlets, South East)

5 /5 Marty Smith: Excellent Turkish cuisine, don’t let the understated looking exterior put you off. The food is delicious and generous in portion. I had the mixed grill. All of it was cooked to perfection (not overcooked) and delicious. Great value relative to portion size. Service was fast & efficient.

5 /5 Betul BASBUGAN: Went for dinner on my friends recommendation, so glad we came here, we ordered the chicken wings, the best Ive had in London, it also comes with salad and meze, all were delicious. I also had the baklava and rice pudding with Turkish tea, they were so fresh and delicious. On top of that price is reasonable and the staff are so welcoming. I would definitely recommend this hidden gem and as a neighbour I will be coming here regularly.

4 /5 Guluzar Aydin: I thought this place was a cafe but they had a whole selection of Mediterranean meals and all tastes so good. They were very accommodating. The meals a very good portion and reasonable price. It’s a hidden gem. However, the bathroom could do more cleaning and some heating on. Nevertheless I would definitely go again.

5 /5 Ridvan Seber: We had Mediterranean breakfast and it was very delicious. Highly recommend. I then have their homemade baklava (mum made the night before) was absolute delight. Would love to go there again when around.

5 /5 Moritz Hausmann: This has been the second time I went to the Chef Restaurant. My TLDR rating is: Really tasty kebab, great salad and amazing bread with fair prices and a friendly atmosphere. Now to get a bit more in depth: I ordered the kebab plate (large) for 12£ as well as the Sucuk from the hot starters menu for 6£. What you get with what is marked on the pictures. The Meat on the Kebab plate is awesome. Perfectly seasoned, crispy but not dry at all. The salad is fresh, the blue cabbage was really crunchy and fresh. Everything on the salad plate was lightly seasoned. With the kebab plate I was asked what kind of sauces I want. I can definitely recommend the homemade garlic sauce! Only nitpick with the kebab plate is, that the fries were not or only really lightly salted. Not a big deal as I just grabbed a salt shaker and salted them myself to my liking. I’d say the value for the kebab plate is great. Definitely not holding back on the meat which I really appreciate. Regarding the Sucuk, you get really nice grilled Sucuk with the star of the show here being the homemade flatbread they have. Which is the most tasty thing. Although the value is not half as good as the kebab plate, the bread you get with the Sucuk is definitely is worth it! All in all I’d recommend and also would come again!
