Huiling Zhang This is a great place to catch up with a friend, or just to enjoy some food and company. Excellent food. Will definitely try again! We ordered the signature pork shank and the confit Guinea fowl; both were very satisfying. Not too oily; not too salty; everything was just right. The sweet cabbage was also cooked expertly. For dessert we tried the hot dumpling, which is basically a warm bun with sweet jam fillings. Needless to say this idea of dumpling is quite novel to me as a Chinese, but it tastes good. I cannot wait to come back and try more items on the menu! Service: nice but chill. Perhaps because we are close to Christmas there weren’t too many customers around. Many chose to stay and chat for a while after the meal. We did so and was not pushed out (never!) and instead received very nice hospitality.

J Palmero Lunch on a sunday. Loved the calamari, curry and their veggie wok rice. The fallen pornstar drink was very tasty!

Kaua Mendes I have to say, this is easily one of the best-tasting chicken spots in Oxford. The quality and flavour are consistently excellent, and everything is prepared to a very high standard. What really sets this place apart, however, is the welcoming and friendly staff. The team are professional, attentive, and make you feel genuinely valued as a customer from the moment you walk in. If you haven’t tried it yet, I highly recommend paying a visit. A well-deserved 10/10 experience.

Hannah Davies Khairos food was absolutely delicious!! Im so happy to have discovered this place. I would recommend to anyone and will definitely be going back. I had the veggie samosa and some delicious grilled chicken and rice. Shakir and the team stayed open late for an event wed organised at the Cowley workers social club. The team were so friendly, food and service all brilliant.

Lindsey Park I could tell this place is very authentic, it has great prices and the portion sizes are huge. The chai was tasty as well, and the service was kind. I would recommend getting takeaway as the space inside is limited though.
