“ Please don't be put off by first impressions! Usually you'll only find men of a certain influence frequenting smile grill, but I took my daughter and her two cousins here. We were well looked after by the staff, although to begin with we did have a few odd stares from the group of men sitting at another table. Let's be frank, this is a good outlet selling halal food so it attracts mostly Islamic customers, bit the food is fantastic! Looks like it could do with a deep clean, but I've been several times and I have only ever gotten great food! The chicken is out of this world! Sit down and get some soup and hummus with freshly baked flat breads. Totally yummy! They do take out too! Fairly priced too! ”

“ Assalamo alaicum wa rakhmathullah wa barrakatho hoo , this is a beautiful dining experience- I visited with my brother on one occasion , and I simply had to return the very next day with my wife and daughter. There is much more to this wonderful restaurant than the delicious food, The sparkly glistening spotless environment, the kind courteous caring personnel, and the delightful thoughtful decor and layout. There is more, there is indeed much more. The Chef himself came to visit our table on both occasions, and even offered additional, courtesy delights, just for us to sample and to provide feedback. We would. Be more than happy to give 10 stars if that word to be a viable option, unless it is not, but what we can do is definitely return here time and time again to enjoy this atmosphere, this food, and the delightful personnel. Leaving the nicest attribute to the last, we would have to say that the hijab wearing young lady who served as was nothing short of perfect, and we wish that we see her and people like her on our return visits, which will be frequent and many Inshallah. ”
