FRESCO - (Near Oxfordshire, london)

Ali G Simply the best. This restaurant has a huge variety of options! Everything from grills to homemade soup of the day, stews, slow cooked traditional dishes, döner kebabs, and so many others I probably haven’t tried yet. Everything I have tried has lived up to my expectations, and I love how your order is grilled in front of you! They are super fast too, once you order and choose any meat from the see through fridge, it is immediately handed to the grill chef and starts cooking! Döner varieties including wraps and döner-on-rice are the best you’ll have in Oxford! Homemade dishes are so good that they run out quickly. A must visit, absolutely worth the price. People who work there are absolute champs they are very kind and always positive despite working loads and being under pressure at all times. (Attached is a takeaway box from Bodrum Restaurant, it has rice and chips underneath the meat, invisible on this angle, salad and sauces are complimentary with every order)

Peter Sloane Stopped for lunch, we arrived late but they still seated us. Food as advertised, elevated pub food, but very elevated. Steak served simply with sauce and fries but exceptional cut and cooked to perfection. Burger wonderful, simple but everything perfectly done. They did pasta for our 5 year old and charged only £7 which is not always the case with restaurants. Would definitely come again.

Mahliqa After a long day moving house in the heat, we were hoping for a hearty meal. We ordered jollof rice, egusi with fufu, and pepper soup. The jollof? Meh - bland and stingy on the portion. The egusi? V.oily but full of flavour - honestly the star of the show. But then came the meat situation. Each dish had one real piece of meat. The rest? .. Unchewable slabs of skin and fat masquerading as food (pictured) - the disrespect. I get that cow skin is a thing but this one clearly missed its softening appointment. Atmosphere-wise, the music was club-level loud. We couldnt hear the staff, and they couldn’t hear us. Cleanliness was questionable (sticky tables), and the vibe among staff was more house party than hospitality. I won’t be back, but shoutout to the egusi for carrying the whole night. 2/5 for that alone.

Arzoo Ahmed This is a beautifully authentic Syrian cafe with wonderful service and a cosy atmosphere. The falafel was super fresh - crispy and delicious, not dry as most falafel tends to be. The cheese spring rolls were perfectly balanced with sesame seeds and herbs. Already looking forward to my next visit - thank you!
