When I walked inside I was welcomed with a warm smile by the guy behind the counter and I felt instantly that this would be good. I ordered the small lamb shawarma with some extra chilli sauce - me like it spicy and juicy ;-) What I like about E. Mono is that while this is a fast-food place, it's clean, people are friendly and the food is of high quality...plus the taste is superior to other döner shops. Furthermore, I like that they serve their döner as a wrap and not in a pita bread; that just makes the whole thing more manageable and appetizing to me. My döner was ready and wrapped up in no time and so I was on my way again...fed, happy and on-time for my next appointment.

A throwback to the royal luxuries of the Mughal empire, this converted pump house has been turned…read moreinto a stunning space. I would honestly come here just to marvel at the opulence. With sky high-ceilings held up by towering blue columns and chandeliers suspending curtains of heavy fabrics, the venue is actually quite breath-taking. With shades of dark blue and gold detailing on the magnificent staircase, it is truly beautiful. Now on to the food. We came here on a weekday for the buffet which was large in quantity. It was rather what you would expect of an Indian buffet - quantity over quality. The food was very much average, something that you would expect out of a TV Indian dinner. A lot of the food was not heated continuously so it being cold took a lot away from the flavor as well. A lot of the dishes I wanted to try which were on the website were missing. To be fair, they did say the dishes rotate and that they won't have everything on. The desserts were all cream, jello, and fruit based and nothing I had ever seen/heard of. The beautiful ice cream selection shown on their website was completely missing as well. However, we got half price off the buffet so the whole dining experience (with drinks) was around 8 quid each! Still a steal for a night out. FYI: The place is dry as it's hallal. The drinks were quite overpriced - not even the mocktails but a simple soda. They have a food wastage surcharge of 5 quid which is not a bad idea as it means they save their food. However, they should really make this more obvious to a diner as its only listed at the bottom of the menu in small letters. I definitely think this place has potential for catering or a group party where they can showcase less of their dishes at a higher level of quality. However, the bathrooms are pretty appalling.

The meat is HMC Halal, and there are the usual Asian dishes on offer, as well as fusion Asian/Chinese dishes.

The drinks service was slow.

I know it's a chain, but the food is actually good, even for a vegetarian. My favorites are the grilled corn on the cob and the haloumi and portabello mushroom wrap, which sounds a bit like something from one of those nasty wrap places that used to be popular in the 90s, but it is really quite nice. Don't be confused, though when you see the hours on the door. The sign painter seems to have switched midnight with noon.

Our appetizers were fresh, very tasty and the two rice dishes included in our meal were excellent, as well. Service was very pleasant, though communications were a little challenging--just enough so to make it fun. The prices charged were quite reasonable. Two drinks (one yoghurt shake, one San Pellegrini), lamb chops entree, lamb aubergine stew, three dishes served as appetizers and tea and semolina cake. Oh, generous portion of fresh. Alex bread, as well. £27.00+optional service charge. Outstanding!

I feel a little harsh by giving this a 2 star, but I think it's worthy for the food we got today…read more We ordered a couple of starters to share, the prawns and halloumi which the cheeses could of been grilled a little more so that it's more crispy on the outside and soft and gooey on the inside. Next up I choose the cheeseburger and my friend had the T bone steak.. I must say I was jealous of their meal as my burger was a tad over cook and the fries wasnt as crispy as I expected. The coleslaw was good, but it was an good portion that I just couldn't finish. However the dessert display look really appetising and I went for the chocolate fondant and the apple tart. I must say give me dessert any day! The decor of the place is lovely and the vibes are very East London hipster style, but I don't think I will be rushing back in a hurry..
