Not only the Best in name, but also in nature! Oh yes…read morebrothers and sisters, I have never tasted anything like it. I wait in anticipation for the 10 minutes it takes to cook my lamb shish. When it's ready it is placed into a freshly made that morning, soft baby loaf, which is unlike any pitta that one usually gets. This one is delicate, almost goowey in texture and tastes as you would imagine a bread cloud to taste! The lamb is covered in chilly sauce and a dash of garlic mayo at my request, and then a mound of salad is wedged in. I must highlight the cabbage - thinly sliced and tossed in olive oil and lemon juice. If you have no other salad have this - mmmmm! For £4.50 my pleasure sensor are set ablaze for the next 20 sometime 23 minutes - feeding my pie hole with tender chunks and manner from heaven! If you don't want to takeaway they have a seated area where you'll be served rice as well as all of the above. This is not just food, this is The Best Kebab food!

I look back where Safestay's location is . . . 3/4ths of a block away=Cool! I enter the restaurant~Heavenly, wafting aroma of roasted lamb . . . like Meg Ryan exclaiming, "Yes, yes, yes!!!!!" I quickly order the lamb chops with a Greek salad, grab a Coke from the cool Chefs, and wait for my dinner.

I enjoyed their dips (I can live on hummus and eggplant dip) and also a couple of their köfte's - my favorite was the lamb. Would happily visit for dine-in next time.

Highly recommend!

The restaurant is basically located in a converted railway tunnel which adds to the charm. I selected the lunch menu. Despite the items being extrmely hard to pronounce I managed to order a starter and a main. The starter was a calamari rings in batter with a sweet chilli dressing followed by an adequate main of 4 chicken patties with bulgerwheat and salad. Very tasty, good portion and quality. This is definitely one to try again. The lamb shank looked good from what others ordered and I'll be trying that.

It's self-service with all mezze dishes on display behind a massive glass counter. I can't remember exactly how much they charged for a selection of four salad items, but the portions were very generous and good value. Mind you I wasn't as impressed as I have been at TAS proper (they belong to the same group). The tzatziki and grilled aubergines were rather bland. I was impressed by the freshness of the parsley salad though and felt I was eating healthy food. EV is located under some railway arches and has the ambience of a generic self-service buffet restaurant - the type you get at National Trust properties. It somewhat lacks in atmosphere, even though the turquoise chandeliers add a touch of class. In summary: more of a quick lunch fix than a destination for a good night out.

The complimentary bread went so well with the baba ganoush, and the chicken in the Tavuk Izgara was probably the most tender chicken I've ever had in my life.
