Tong (From the streets of Dhaka) - (Near Lewisham, london)

4 /5 mahmuda aleya: My first visit to Tong was nice. So the person who was taking order was very polite and good came quite quickly. We have ordered beef sheek kebab, chicken reshmi kebab, luchi and tea. Their signature dish is beef chaap which was unavailable so we have ordered the beef sheek kebab. This was best beef sheek kebab we had in London. Me and husband we are foodies and try dishes from different places to compare and I highly recommend their food. Only downside was beef sheek kebab was almost burnt and reshmi kebab had less spice but the person who served us he has given us the replacement of beef sheek kebab immediately for free. I give 5 star for the service for Shawon. And cha was good as well.

5 /5 Mahzabin Badhon: Authentic Bangladeshi vibe and taste , specially the Beef Shik Kabab & Chaap . Please keep maintaining the dedication and authenticity of original Bangladeshi taste . Will come back every week if the food quality remains the same .

5 /5 Alam MD Wahidul (Dipu): If youre looking for a taste of nostalgic Dhaka street food, Tong Restaurant is a must-visit. Their grilled chicken is perfectly charred and smoky, striking the right balance of spice and tenderness. The atmosphere adds to the experience with a street-style charm that feels both authentic and unpretentious. Its a fantastic spot for anyone wanting to relive the flavors of home or experience Dhaka’s street food culture right in the heart of London.

5 /5 Ashiq Imtiaz: The sheekh kebab here is absolutely outstanding—juicy, smoky, and seasoned to perfection. Each bite is packed with the rich flavors of fresh herbs, green chilies, and warm spices, all grilled to give that perfect char without drying out the meat. The texture is tender and melt-in-your-mouth, exactly how a great Bangladeshi-style seekh kebab should be. Served hot with lemon, onions, and mint chutney, it’s a dish that instantly steals the spotlight. A must-try for any kebab lover!

4 /5 D Shares: Despite reading some low-star reviews, I still wanted to give this place a try since it’s new in town. Unfortunately, the negative reviews weren’t wrong. Many people have called this spot “a taste of Dhaka” or “a taste of Bangladesh,” but let’s be real it’s not. But it’s also not the kind of food you’d easily find in London either, which gives it some uniqueness from the regular Indian or Pakistani kabab or grills. The food tastes decent, but it’s far from authentic Dhakaiya style. Anyone familiar with the real taste of kabab, chaap, tandoori, or Dhaka-style grilled items will understand the difference. Customer service definitely needs improvement. There was only one person working on the floor, and he seemed overwhelmed — mixing up orders between tables and forgetting items. At least two people should be managing the floor. About 40% of the menu was unavailable when we visited around 9 PM. Even the tea was finished by then. The space is also quite small, so be prepared to wait for a seat.
