Black Pepper - Buckingham

I have always been polite and courteous during the 4-5 months I frequented this restaurant, so it’s absolutely shocking to see how I went from being their most loyal customer to someone who is now treated with such disregard and served unacceptable food. It seems there may be some emotional issues at play among the young staff, leading them to create an alternate reality where customers are treated differently based on their nationality. Having visited Turkish restaurants for over 25 years, I’ve never encountered overpriced food of such low quality as in this establishment. I initially thought it was a hidden gem, like many others, due to its high-quality meats and vegetables. However, they’ve made far too many mistakes, including: a) serving spoiled vegetables, b) forgetting side orders, c) treating customers with indifference unless they fit a certain appearance, and d) seeming upset when they realize I’m single and not interested in dating any of their staff.

Iv eaten mixed grills and meat platters up and down the country , the amount of meat you receive is absolutely shocking in a £20 mixed grill i received literally 1 cube of chicken, 1 cube of lamb, 1 small kofta,, and what they called a lamb chop but it was the size of a dice with no meat just fat , i genuinely thought they made a mistake because usually from any other restaurants you receive 1 full skewer of each meat etc so i contacted the shop who told me thats how they come and didnt compensate in anyway way shape or form Food: 2 Service: 1 Atmosphere: 2
