Customer reviews
Review summary
Updated on July 2026- Flavour: The koftas were well received for their Middle Eastern seasoning, and the herby dressing and salad were also enjoyed.
- Suggestions: Some found the lean beef mince produced dry koftas, so consider adding a little extra moisture to the mixture. A few customers also suggested doubling the dill and parsley mayonnaise for a more generous drizzle.
- Portions: Several customers felt the meal benefited from adding a carbohydrate on the side, such as pita bread or wraps.
