Halal Reviews for Mangal Clapton

Excellent dining experience where I was treated exceptionally well. I asked for a reccomendation of the best vegetarian food and I certainly received it. After finishing, I was gifted a complimentary tea. Definitely reccomend this place if you're in the area

What a joke of a response to my friend’s review. We are very clear about where we ate and can provide the receipt if needed. The restaurant is on Stoke Newington Road, opposite Samarkand and a few shops away from Istanbul Restaurant. Please do not suggest we are confused or talking about the wrong place. We know exactly what we were charged and who we spoke to. The waiter gave his name as Ali (whether that is his real name cannot be verified). We were charged £9 for small pots of chilli sauce, no complimentary tea, and 5p for 1glass of tap water, which is unheard of in Turkish cuisine. Ali the waiter also confidently told us that all Turkish restaurants will start charging for sauce next year, which only added to the disbelief. 😂 The issue is not just the charges but the attitude towards paying customers, as if we were being lectured on Turkish food or dining. This was disappointing and unnecessary. We are regular customers at Istanbul Restaurant, even before the current owners, and decided to try your restaurant for the first time. Sadly, due to this experience, it will also be the last time.

Highly recommended I just finished eating a Turkish pizza and a lamb kebab that were out of this world, two delicacies at a price you can only dream of in London. I was expecting something good because it had been recommended to me, but what I ate exceeded all expectations. The ingredients were very good, and there can only be two reasons for this: good quality raw materials and skilled hands that know what they are doing. Congratulations, it's worth crossing London to eat here. Every time I come back to this city, you will be a regular stop.

Disappointed with the service. Charged £3 for additional chilli sauce, ended up paying £9 extra for 3 little pots of chilli sauce! they even charged 5p for tap water. Asked for Turkish tea after the meal (which most Turkish places offer for free) and they wanted to charge for that too..!! Staff had an attitude. Wouldn’t recommend. *This was 100% this location — paid via Apple Pay and the statement shows the restaurant name and address.
