Sheba Brick Lane

My Brother and myself visited this restaurant again as the food was very reasonable on our first visit back last year.

Unfortunately, the food this time around was no where near what we were expecting.

My Brother had a King Prawn butterfly for starter which did not appear to have any prawn in it at all (some type of substitute fish appeared to be used, although the tail appeared to be from a prawn!). I had a Fish Kebab for starter which was ok but not exactly spicy and lacked seasoning.

For the main course, my Brother had a King Prawn Shashlik Bhuna which had some flavour but was swimming in oil/ghee.

My main course was Chicken Hyderabadi Bhuna which had very little flavour:- the chicken was flavour-less and the sauce had no detectable seasoning, spice or chilli.

All-in-all, the only part of the meal we were both satisfied with was the drinks (they didn't have to prepare the Cobra beer!).

Hopefully you will think twice before going to this Restaurant as I felt very short-changed when spending over £50 for two people and the low quality of food that we received in exchange.
