Willesden Charcoal Grill - Brent

In the past 2 month I me and my friend visited Lezzeiz restaurant, and both time there was bad quaintly meat and both of us had stomach pain and even vomiting. I would never go back .. very bad

I have been going to this grill since it was the small takeaway shop at least 8/10 years ago and I still would challenge anyone to find me better Turkish food anywhere. Whether it was a quick takeaway after work or a drunken 4am stumble I couldn't fault the food.... And then they purchased the bigger plot and made a restaurant... I have no words. I have travelled ALOT... And I still compare grilled and traditional dishes to this place. Its immense and the decor inside is so beautiful. The grilled wings, the fresh bread and the salads are just to die for. I actually have moved away from the area but travel back just to go there. This place is not to be misjudged by the area it is in... You could put it in Covent garden and it would outdo alot of the fancy overpriced restaurants with the quality, authenticity and flavours it puts on a plate. The platters are just the best by the way.... If you can't tell already I LOVE this place and I'm contemplating heading down there right now just to get my fix... I'm 3 hours away.

I came to this resturant twice in January and February. The food was good but the service was very bad. Today, we decided to go here again and before we even got the opportunity to sit down and look at the menu we were really put off by the waitress’s manners. It was very warm in the resturant and we asked her if the a/c is on and she said yes then we asked her if she can increase the coolness as it was very hot but she just shrugged her shoulders and unbothered said this is how it is. We said we would leave then and she didn’t even wait for us to get up from the table before she started to take the menus away from us (it’s important to tell you that the resturant was not busy at this time at all). The manager saw everything but didn’t even bother himself to come forward and see if everything is alright. I only shared this, so that you know if you go here do not expect any kind of service either from the manager nor the waitresses. For me personally, if I don’t trust the service and manager then I certainly won’t trust the food.

First time in a Turkish restaurant and we are surprised with everything. Huge plates, good seasoning, polite staff and food comes quickly. Very nice atmosphere. Really recommended.

Food quality in my opinion is not horrendous but just not good. The falafel I ordered was cold on the inside. There is a lot of free complimentary food served too including salad, tzazitski and alot of bread. This is probably the reason why this place is swarming with people as there is alot of food served at a cheap price. The waiting staff are also quite zombified and it was difficult to get their attention. If you want to visit this place, best to go during the week as it will be quieter. You will get no decent service at the weekend. We waited 30 mins to get some water.
