Best Place To Have Kebabs

Raddison is a renowned name and I recently went there for lunch at The Great Kebab Factory. When it comes to buffet our choice is fixed that is The Great Kebab Factory!! All the non veg lovers this is the place which satisfy your craving for galoutis and kebab, adding fish and prawns will be cherry on the cake!!

It’s a roof top restaurant and has exquisite turquoise and blue themed decor which looks elegant as well as immaculate.

The service here is swift and prompt. The staff was well bred and respectful and were just a call away. All the items were served on table one by one.

What I had :
1) Mutton Galouti Kebab with raw papaya chapati: this was there signature dish and the kebabs completely melted in my mouth. The papaya chapati complemented well.

2) Atishi Chooza : Chicken marinated in secret spices was was delicious.

3) Gosht Tawa Boti Kebab : juicy and tender mutton boti Kebab.

4) Zafrani Murg Tikka : Chicken Tikka cooked to perfection. Was good.

5) Mahi Pudina Seekh: fish seekh Kebab, which was juicy and moist.

Maincourse : tried their dal makhani, dal tadka, kadhai paneer, chicken curry and mutton biryani - all the main course items were exceptionally delicious and tasty.

Desserts : Gulab jamun, pan ice cream, sewaiya kheer, moong daal halwa and tinka kulfi. - the desserts for me were the ⭐ of the show. These guys completely nailed it with all the desserts specially the gulab jamun.

It was an amazing and enticing experience.

On special note and last but not the least the service and hospitality by there staff is very nice and good!

They will make your food journey special and would always be there for you any kind of need or special demand!!

hotel radisson is like your 'fabled hotel California' story of Eagles.

Usually they run some special deals for  dining/liqour  online. and i am sure if this is still open.
thye hv one popular 45 minutes of unlimited spirits and a plate of startes. Otherwise be prepared to lose your wallet in style.

this is  a place you would like to square off with office foes or uptight arrogant bosses or other dysfunctional teams players after a bad day in he office (hard days night).
Hotel  is quite isolated as this is on a narrow stretch of road that leads to Chennai's downtown( mount road/ anna salai) and  you see all kinds of shops and businesses set up. airway ticketing agents, colleges, schoolsgovt offices.  And at night this pace is very lonely dark outside and if you are depending on public transport then u r looking for adventure.

They have the best kebabs in the city. Their galouti kebab in particular is to die for! Went there today to celebrate my wife's birthday and Chef Ghanim and team ensured that we had the most delectable fare. The service was exemplary - the chief steward Jimi and the rest of the team was very friendly as well and made the experience memorable.

It's a pretty quiet place, not very crowded. The galouti kabab is one my favorites here, it literally melts in your mouth. Never have I have I ever described anything else as "exquisite". The other stuff is pretty good too. The main course could use a lot more variety though, very limited options to choose from. It's a bit pricey, but you should definitely give it a try.

The Galouti kabab was just absolute bliss. Very well prepared. It literally melts in your mouth. I didn't prefer the small paratha they served with it. Savour the kabab on it's own, it's much better.
The tangdi kababs were also delicious and so were the chicken malai kababs. Very soft and creamy. Recommended.
I didn't like the fried fish, forgot the name they used. It wasn't really flavourful or soft.
The seekh kababs were okay.

I had a plan to meet my age old college friend over a luxury dinner. So I chose to meet up at Raddison Blu The Great Kebab Factory.

This place is near Ethiraj College . I booked the table for 4 in Zomato , and we arrived in the restaurant on time.

The waiters greeted us graciously and offered water to drink .

We chose to relish the Kebabs , so I chose the Veg Option, my other friends chose the Non Veg option.

The Kebabs were served on the table , and each and evey dish was explained on which condiment one need to choose .

The Subz Galuti was tasting good , infact I ordered it twice . Others were served regularly.

We had a time to chat among us and the meal that was served filled our appetite.

The Veg Biryani was tasting good , with lot of fired onions inside it.

Finally we were served with desserts , Chandrakala , rasagulla , Kala Jamun , bottle gurd halwa.

All of them tasted really good.

As it is a 5 Star restaurant , the price for the ambiance and the food that was served I felt it is OK.I will recommend this place for cozy meetup with family and friends.

We have been to various outlets from the time this chain was launched and this one is as pretty as the other. They have maintained their standards to a large extent. The food has been kept at the high standard. The staff those days explained in detail about each kabab and which sauce went with what. These days effort is more on serving quickly and less on the details. Galauti kabab remains my favourite and I consistently go for my second serving. Keep the concept going! A lot of chains have cropped up with trying to copy and better The Great Kabab Factory. Yours is the original and you still trump the others. Thanks!

The kebab factory word is enough to know what does it means

We were two of us ordered vegetarian buffet. They had 6 varities of kebab. Like galuti kebab with saffron bread tasted amazing . Hara bara kebab was the best. When I said I don’t want one kebab they provided me one extra broccoli kebab. The chutneys were nice and the way the served us with each and every detail the name with with chutney to eat with was really nice.

After that v had main course with 4 side dishes in which dhal makani was t best followed by mix vegetable. They have varieties of option for breads but v ordered roomali roti the texture was very soft . Pundina paratha was well cooked and toasted.

Last but not the least the desserts were they served moong dhal halwa, gulab jamun, mango kesar bati , choco mithai, paan kulfi , malai kulfi , v asked ice creams they offered us vanilla and chocolate.

Ambience wise very calm and service wise it was superb.

Ensure that you go with a good appetite. The food is amazing here. We were stuffed with only the starters, so it came as a shocker when they mentioned that we had 2 more courses left.

The service was very poor though. The waiters were slow and sloppy and most times we had to give them instructions about table arrangements.

Ambience : thumbs up
Staff and Service: Warm and efficient
Value For Money: Low. Set meal cost is higher given that it's concept is actually similar to a grill restaurant but variety here is low
Food: they have three set courses. But there is no soup, sadly. The welcome drink of saffron milk and buttermilk they served along starters were good. The starters were of high quality and tasted really well. I especially loved the lamb galouti kebab. But after starters things go downhill. The range of main course is limited and food is also half decent as compared to starters. My suggestion is to fill in on starters rather than expecting much in mains. Desserts totally disappoint. Again very limited options, and while kulfi and potato halwa were delicious, there is nothing novel for taste buds to rave about. You expect a great experience when you pay big. That is a big miss for me despite them ticking all the boxes.

A premium fine dine which is better known for its Galouti kebabs .
The place, food, and the service is at its best.
As in case of most of the premium buffet places , the starters are served at your table .
Galouti kebab that you get here is definitely the best in the city
The spread is not wide , however it's good that you can try every item
It's definitely a place that is worth the money for a good food and experience

Kababs or Kebabs are supposed to be Turkish/Middle Eastern in origin going back to antiquity. Possibly it was a no-brainer for soldiers to skewer the meat over a fire using their swords and the idea probably caught on.

Closer home the old texts refer to large quantities of meat roasted over large open fires. Today's kebabs took shape in Mughal kitchens c. mid 16th century onward.

Regardless of origin kababs are a meal on their own and the GKF ensures that.

Lunch or dinner is a table d'hôte or a set menu meal. Before entering the restaurant the menu is displayed and I thought it was a very clever display - see pics.

The restaurant interior is tastefully done up with subdued lighting adding to the comfort factor.

The service crew are solicitous and friendly. We were in Manoj's hands from reserving the table to settling the bill.

We started with a thandai or cold milk sweetened with sugar and smelling divine of saffron.

We were given a quick introduction to the meal format - being vegetarian i recount those options here. There would be four types of kababs, a vegetable biriyani, two types of daal, a paneer or cottage cheese dish, five types of dessert and coffee or tea. You can ask for more helpings.

The galouti or yam kebab which melts in the mouth is eaten with a thin paratha or Indian flat bread as a wrap. Four types of chutney that enhance the experience are placed on the table.

We were served paneer or cottage cheese tikka, seekh kabab, potato patties with the service crew telling us which chutney to apply over which kabab.

Meat kababs are served by a different waiter minimising the chances of a mix up.

I probably set a world record wolfing all kababs under two minutes which explains the lack of pictures 😀

We were offered second helpings and I took one of each plus a pineapple kabab.

The vegetable biryani and Indian breads - roti, naan are served with yellow daal, black daal in butter, cottage cheese in a garlicky, tomato flavoured gravy and a raita or small cut vegetables in yoghurt.

All the dishes except the raita,of course, were served hot. The aroma of the biriyani is hard to miss and the freshness of preparation is obvious.

The place where they make the breads is glass cased so you can see them being made.

There were other things to eat and drink during the course of the meal - the papad, onion salad, sprouts, Indian street food item of dahi bhalla and salted buttermilk.

Desserts - all Indian - hot Carrot halwa, Coconut barfi, Rosogolla, kheer and kulfi came and went in 30 seconds 😀

Last on the meal is filter coffee or tea. I am glad I chose filter coffee because my mobility was impaired after such a large and filling value for money meal 😋

And, as all good things have to come to an end so did this meal but I am definitely going back for more - food, staff and atmosphere.

Thank you Manoj and the team for a memorable dining experience 🙏🏼

A wonderful place to celebrate great food for special occasions. Right beside the swimming pool at the Radison Blu, the great kebab factory offers a unique Arabian buffet. The food is served and not placed on the buffets. The servers explain the food and recommend the way of consumption.

Ambience wise, nothing new, nothing extra ordinary. Brick walls, clay knick knacks, done up in orange with a touch of blue. Two words - boring and forgettable. The service on the other hand was excellent. The crew was well versed with the menu. The service was prompt and smooth..

Non-veg Kebabs:

Galouti Kabab & Mini Paratha

- Signature item of TGKF. It is minced lamb served with mini paratha.. It was way too delicious and went repeating this one over and over again..

This place even has a good ambience and I rate it 4.5/5.

Went for Lunch to the place which is known in itself as a brand for good Indian food.... Went for buffet option as it was much more appealing and convenient to choose from wide option...started with welcome drink, chilled saffron milk... Very good to go as u come from hot sun out.... Then we got some sprouts salad, fruit salad as a apart of buffet...
Started off with the Non veg platter consisting of Mutton Seek, Tandoori Tangri, Mutton Galaouti, chicken Tikka...wjat to say all were one above the other Galaouti was served with big size ulta Tawa Parathe which is easy to consume, all these served served with 4 types of chutneys in shot glass which was eye appealing . Post starters some Mixture of them pure sad served along with Chaat papdi which allowed us to digest our starters and get ready for main course. I got another glass of welcoming drink as it was so gud along with evry food.
Started main course with some Mutton Rogan,palak chicken and some yellow dal Tadka, order for Roomali roti as can see fresh Roomali been made live... It was an amazing experience to try out Rogan Josh with freshly made Roomali. Also got some chicken Biryani which was flavourful . We were also been served with some buttermilk inbetween the meal which was a nice gesture.
Tried Gulab Jamun and Some Moong Dal Halwa which is worth treing.
Also have to mention about the staff who were perfectly placed at their position and very explanatory and Courticious.
On the whole an experience worth trying.

This review is based on the visit on Saturday late night. We got the table reserved over the phone thinking the place would be full since it was Saturday. But to our surprise the place was almost empty.

Since it is is a star hotel lets talk about the ambience. The decors and place was really good. But the annoying thing was that the restaurant was vibrating so bad because of the music that was played in pulse (bar). The loud music was played even after the permissible hours which they could do nothing even after complaining.

Coming to food. We had vegetarian that day. (Sorry non veggies. This review is not for you). Do you want to taste the best Gelouti kebab and paneer kebab?
This is the place. It was so very delicious that you can't stop with one. Veg kebab and roasted potatoes were also tasty.

Going to main course. You have a variety of Indian breads to choose from. Not have to say that the breads are tandoored perfectly. The best Dal Makhani (black dal) is from this place. Dal fry and paneer butter masala was not up to the mark. The main course includes biryani as well which we didn't taste that night..

Desserts include pan kulfi, malai kulfi, gulab jamun, moong dhal halwa and dates laddoo.. Malai kulfi was so very creamy n melts in your mouth. Gulab Jamun is just about perfect.

The service needs a bit of improvement. We had to ask multiple times to get tissue papers at first. They did not allow us to finish our first bread before that they started serving biryani even after saying to bring it a bit later. We were not sure whether they were in a hurry to close the restaurant. But apart from these couple of incidents the peopl were courteous and service was very fast.

Because of loud music and couple of service errors my rating is 4. Else it would been a straight 5.

After fighting through the heavy Monday night traffic, the silent ambience of this place was refreshing. A low traditional tune sets the tune for great Indian food that is served here.
Evident from the name, appetizers here have a variety of kebabs. My pick of the lot would be the Galoutis, both vegetarian and non vegetarian variety. These are offered along with sheermal and soft Indian breads. Talking about kebabs, the pumpkin kebab was something new.
Other types of kebabs included seekh and a chicken kebab filled with mint. Also you can enjoy boneless chicken, friend fish and one of the best prwans you can get in Chennai.
Moving on to main course, you have dal makhni, yellow lentil daal. For non vegetarian dishes you have lamb korma. These dishes can be enjoyed with either.butter naan or garlic naan. For people who prefer rice dishes you can have chicken biryani or vegetarian pulao.
Coming to my favorite part of the meal, the desserts. They have a nice variety which includes chocolate barfi, traditional kulfi or a pan flavour based on your preference. A pleasant surprise was shahi tukda. Being from Lucknow, this is a dessert close to my heart, and it can certainly be a hit or miss for many. Rest assured you will find it tasty.
Apart from the food, service was prompt with attentive staff. They took care to announce the dishes to us each time it was served so that food does not get mixed up for different people.Arvind Puthige Shivam Saxena Paresh Dashore

Went here for dinner on a Wednesday night .
Great staff ,super fast service .
My favourite were the galouti kebab -a total melt in the mouth ,the fish and the pan ice cream .
The fish was prepared in a unusual marination from the regular tandoor so it tasted very different and great .
The pan ice cream tasted just like Beeda .it was amazing .
The biryani anyhow was bland to my liking .
Couldn't try the breads and subzi as I was too full .will try them on my next visit and update !

Went here with a bunch of friends for New Year's Eve dinner. The ambience is simply breathtaking as you enter the restaurant, the servers are polite and helpful. I had to book a table ahead of time to avoid the rush on New Year's Eve. They were nice enough to give us a private place as requested. Although that room was poorly lit, the food more than made up for it! The nonveg buffet consisted of a variety of kebabs for starters-the standout being the galouti kebab. The shrimp, fish and chicken were also delicious accompanied by the spicy green chutney. The main course was varieties of naan and a lip smacking mutton biryani. My personal favourite was the biryani with the chicken gravy. If you're not much of a rice person I suggest you fill yourself up on the scrumptious starters!! We ordered a few mocktails which all tasted amazing. Finished off the meal with a small but delicious spread of Indian sweets- strawberry jigarthanda, moong dhal halwa( personal favourite) and besan burfi. The Kulfis were the best though with 2 options of malai and paan kulfi. Do try the paan kulfi! The entire meal was served by them at our table so that gave us more time to catch up and spend time with each other.The cost was not bad for the quality and taste of the food! Will definitely go back for their galouti kebab, biryani and paan kulfi!! Must visit if you're ever looking for a fancy place for dinner or lunch with friends or family!

I would rate a 5 for this place and that 5 includes for everything about great kabab factory! Went here for the birthday lunch with my friend. And I had prebooked a private table with candle light I must definitely say this.. they nailed it. By the time we had reached there were no one in the restaurant but the staffs. They made sure that the table was set perfectly just like I wished for. The table was candle lite and it had rose petals! The ambience was a 5/5. Coming to the food... since I looovveeeee kababs i feel this is one such place in the city that serves the best. So first they brought galouti kabab which is served with a roti kinda and mint chutney...! Trust me the kabab literally melts down the mouth and we had three rounds of just this. Next we got sheek kabab again this is something that is a must try. Since we didn't prefer fish we didn't taste it. Later there was naan and dhal makhani and gosht biriyani and the deserts which had Gulab jamun and different flavours of kulfi. Since it was a surprise for my friend as told in the last they served us a complimentary cake. The pricing is nominal. The staffs were too courteous and responsive and friendly. That's exactly why I would give a 5/5 about everything with this restaurant. All foodies out there if u get a chance to go to this place don't think twice just give it a shot I'm sure u'll love it just as I did.

I would like to start off by pointing out some really nice positives about this place. The place was serene , dimly lit and suited our moods when we arrived after a nice Thai massage. Saffron milk did not do much for me nor my boy friend . Being proper foodies, we were eager to start off with starters .the famous veg gauloti kabbab was brilliant followed by paneer. Vegetarian starters were limiter but tasted really good.. the buttered broccoli and Panner were mention worthy. Main course was sensible in my opinion. Two subsizs, two daals and biriyani . The taste of subsizs could have been better. Daal factory was really good. Dessert was very mediocre and did not have a good variety, so I ended up eating chocolate ice cream. Overall, it was pretty good but slightly expensive for 1100 which I paid through Groupon

Galouti Kebabs, enough said. This restaurant serves the best Galouti Kebab in Chennai. The saffron based roti when rolled with the Kebab just tastes amazing. It costs around Rs.1000/- per person to eat here without counting any extra drinks, etc. But I can see myself just living off these Galouti Kebabs for a lifetime. The main course is quite good too. But I was so blown away by the Galouti Kebab that I don't really remember much about all the other dishes they served. The waiters tend not to serve the Kebab often, but I just kept making them bring it all the time.

Highly recommend visiting this restaurant at least once. Guaranteed not to leave disappointed.

Went to this place in Egmore with a gang of 6 hardcore eaters..
Welcome Drink was totally crap.
So,It all started with the Signature Kabab of the restaurant named GALOUTI KABAB.
It WA alike minced lamb kabab with some paratha..
It was so awesome to eat with Mint Chutney..
Then,served was the RAAN E MURG,legs of chicken with saffron cooked in tandoor.
It was only one dish there in the restaurant for seafood lovers..it was ACHARI MACCHI TIKKA.it is nothing but pickled cubes of fish cooked in tandoor.
Then another boneless preparation of chicken was served..it was a quite usual bite..
Then,the last starter of the day comes the MURG SHEEK KABAB.It was little rubbery and some grains were seen inside it.. It want like the usual Sheek kabab we used to it..
There was like only one Gravy part of the Main Course and it was chicken..
And the other Mains were BRIYANI,Garlic Naan,Butter Naan and other Indian Breads..
Then,we ordered all the mocktails part of the menu..
1)Dark Surprise- It was some Ginger with Coke
2)Blushing Berries- Cranberry Drink
3)Blue Topaz- It's a mint drink
and not familiar with the other drink which was made of Litchie..
At last,coming to the dessert.. We were served with Gulab Jamun,Malgova,PAN Kulfi and Malai Kulfi..

Perhaps the best kababs place in town. This is all u can eat joint with great starters and greater desserts.

If u don't plan you have to miss the main course and will not about their great dal and rice dishes.

Little pricey but u will get tempted and bound to add calories

My Radio Control racing team wanted to meet up here, not a fan of expensive lunch buffet but this place tempted me for one reason only. The awesome Galouti kebab.. I am soo addicted to it. Those on diet, Easy weight gainers, stay away!!!!!, this will be too sinful for you all. I hogged about 7 of this before I forced myself to try other dishes, every thing on the menu is covered on the per head cost. Literally whole menu is a buffet the good side is less wastage of food, good thinking by the management.. Mouth watering already while I'm typing this review thinking about the Galouti.. Will be heading back again with foodies..

+ves - The Dishes Oh my God !!! - Mouth Watering sauces - Epic starters - One of the best Biriyanis ever - The Kulfi 😊 - Courteous staff - Amazing ambience

- ves - Had to wait nearly an hour for the cocktails we ordered 😡 and apart from the Kulfi , the deserts were just ok . But not complaining since I had a good experience overall

Overall - Must try !! Best kebabs in town

I visited the place for the celebration of Wedding day.
Great place I've ever visited for food. Thanks for the excellent service, I've never experienced such an excellent service with clear explanation of each food during the service & Served at our table by staff who tell to us, which chutney to dip each starter.

They love what they do, They enjoy what they do and they want us to be the part of it. 

You can actually swim on the food here. The starters are the best part of this place. 

They have worked even on the small details of the chairs it's very comfortable to move back and forth without any resistance.

They totally worth it.

I had been there with friends and had a good time. The food is good specially Mutton, Fish and Prawn kebab. Avoid the nan and gravies there are better items to have. The biryani is good, go for the mutton biryani. The desserts are excellent and you should have every type. Kulfi also is a must try.

Should go in a big group to enjoy all the items.

Have to say...very impressed.
The services although a bit time consuming is worth the wait. The card magician at the food table was incredible. Food taste is different and awesome. The slush and litchi gola won our hearts. The only come was thatbthey didn't have much options. Otherwise , this place is a must visit. And thank u for the discount too.

Visited a GKF after almost 5 years. Great service and ambience as usual . But the taste of food has gone down a bit compared to the earlier times. The galouti , chicken ball kabab, lamb & prawn kabab were excellent. The biryani and the mutton kurma served with it were superb. The dals, fish kabab & Faluknama chooza were not up to the mark. The desserts were ok. The PAN kulfi was a stand out among the desserts.

A one stop shop for kebabs! Not to miss this place @ Radisson Blu. Much recommended for veg and non-veg, pre-selected unlimited kabab buffet - a unique experience for bbq fanatics. Will visit again! Special Thanks to Chef Ghamin for elevating this gastronomical experience, and waiter Gopinath for his constant recommendations so that we don't derail the "nawabi" experience. Thank you! 🙏

Had a wonderful experience at The Great Kebab Factory at my second visit after 4 years. Was pleasantly surprised that their standard hasn't deteriorated. The restaurant chain celebrates their 25th anniversary during this period and had some special desserts on the menu. The food was ample and filling with just the right amount of flavoring. It's better to visit on a day when you have not been having many snacks before going so g that you could go through the entire course of meals.

The food was brilliant, we'd seen a few reviews with lower ratings and didn't have much expectations however, the food from the beginning, starting from a simple bread and soup to the curry was delicious. The chef Syed Muhammad Ghanim checked in with us thrice and gave a complementary fox nut with sweetened vermicelli dessert. Truly a wonderful experience and a delectable dinner.

Wonderful lunch at the GKF lots of varieties and the service was also good. Our server Miss Mami was attentive and served the food at a leisurely pace but made sure take feedback and adjust the pace to our liking. Master chef Ghanim Bin Hairat was split between the kitchen and the dining room make sure all the dishes come out piping hot and that it was all to the guests liking. Overall an excellent experience would definitely recommend:

Had lunch at the Great Kabab Factory at the Radisson Blu Egmore today. Must have to say one of the best food I have eaten. You can choose either non-veg or veg option. We were a party of 5 and we went with the non-veg option. It's a buffet but they serve it to you - so no need to get up and grab your food and run into others. Starters were bean sprouts which i enjoyed. Soup was an interesting one - tasted a bit of tomato soup/rasam mix - spicy but very well made. The kababs then kept coming in one by one - galouti, sheesh, tikka, prawn and also mutton and fish. Think there was one other i forget as they were all good except possibly the fish which was okay. Had only a couple of spoons of the biriyani which was good but did not attempt nans, dals etc as we were all too full to continue. There were about 5 desserts, from which we took only bite size samples, just to taste it. They were all fine. Overall, the best and softest kababs i have eaten. Service is fantastic - Gopinath served patiently and explained each item well, manager Biswajeet did check on us frequently. Kudos to chef Ghanim for the excellent food. Keep up the good work. Will definitely return.

Wonderful dinner with gud variety. Menu was Shorba, Hariyali aloo, subz galoti kebab, bhatti da paneer tikka, bharvan shimla mirch, rava kumbh kurkure, chatkara pahl, saufiana murgh tikka, kasturi jianga and few more non veg starters. Garlic naan and patiala paneer with dal tadka and dal makani was great in taste. Biriyani was safron flavour and had unique taste. Desserts are also great. Carrot halwa and ras malai was super tasty. But they and include even few starters for the price we pay.

Chef Ghanim, thank you for your excellent food course and warm hospitality. Divya's service is exceptional in serving food with a happy and friendly nature. Her positive attitude made our son's birthday happier and she was very much a part of the celebration. All in all, a great experience with all the personnel there.

Had got the recommendation to try this place from my IIM Bangalore Alumni group. Since we were staying in Radisson this time, tried this place for the first time and we were blown away by the food and the personal attention from Chef Ghanim Bin. Definitely a must try for foodies in Chennai.

Was a wonderful experience. After a long time we enjoyed the mutton galouti and veg galouti. All the kebabs were good. The service was a little slow... But that worked to our advantage... We could eat more. The chicken biryani which we barely tasted was also good. The desserts were nothing much to write about. The paan kulfi was great.

We have visited The Great Kabab Factory (TGKF) 3 times in the past 6 months and this has been our go-to place for our family get-togethers! Chef Ghanim has always made us feel at home and never for once gave us a chance to complain! He would ensure we savour his delicacies non-stop, without a break! I would definitely recommend this restaurant for the utterly delicious food, complete warmth and hospitality shown by Chef Ghanim and his staff! Thank you very much and keep up the excellent work! Eagerly looking forward to our next visit to TGKF!
