Village Charcoal Grill - (Near Sutton, london)

Jamie Roberts We’ve been driving past ChefCheer for weeks and finally decided to give it a go one Sunday evening. The restaurant was very quiet and its relatively small inside. Decor and music made us feel like we’re back home in Egypt. This Iraqi/Persian food is so so good. Really generous portions and super tasty. We were given a complimentary bowl of lentil soup, which I would 100% go back for! The lamb kozi just melted in your mouth and the mixed grill was delicious. The only disappointment was the okra stew which was a little slimey. There looked like there’s a large table toward the back but otherwise tables are for 2-4 people. If you’re a big group I would recommend booking. We need to give this local restaurant some love! We can’t wait to go back and try some of the other dishes.

Thamilselvi Mohamed ajeeth The food was really nice and very fresh. The prices are good and affordable compared to nearby restaurants. The taste was delicious, especially the biryani – spicy and really tasty. There was a little waiting time, but I’m happy to wait when the food is freshly made and tastes this good. I would 100% recommend this place and definitely suggest trying the different biryanis and the chicken chukka.

Roy Harris Let me tell you this place is amazing atmosphere is good service amazing we were served by Karis amazing young lady looked after us all the way through our meal checking to see if we were happy with the service, etc.. I would definitely come back here. Spoke to the manager and mentioned my birthday and they brought a cake with a candle in for me as well quality Five star restaurant.

David Ashton Really friendly service! Had the avocado and poached egg baguette, tasted soooo nice. Place is very clean and has more of a restaurant feel than a cafe but with a more personal friendly service. Oh yeah and make sure to have some of the cake, Chocolate cake was delicious.

ASFromTheLane (ASfromTheLane) Tried this coffee shop for the first time and was a little disappointed. They have proper, large coffee machine in there but my latte was made using a small pod like the machine I have in the kitchen. Charging a premium for a coffee like that was a little strong in my opinion especially given it just tasted like a cheap pod coffee. If the machine was out of service or something they should have just said. As the shop was newly open I didn’t want to cause them any trouble so just accepted it. Food is good, just a bit put off by the coffee.
