The service is so bad, even though the food was passable we were left with a bad taste in our mouth. Not once were we asked if our meal was ok, the waiter was miserable and the manager was rude when we mentioned to him that we had to send one of the diners back because the chicken was not... More

I have eaten here a few times and each time have thoroughly enjoyed the evening, a lovely place for that special occasion whether it be couple, family or friends without feeling uncomfortable. Food has always been of a high standard and reasonably priced for the quality. Highly recommended!!!

Went a few weeks ago on a Saturday night for a friends birthday, she did need to book about 3 months in advance, but it was worth it. Absolutely loved it. The place looks amazing and the food is delish!!! A few reviews mention that it is over priced. Mains are approx £16 which is about average for a meal... More

The fod here is overrated and very below par. I called Colin to ask him some questions about his meat suppliers. He told me to mind my own business and put the phone down. Honestly do not go here its over priced for Turkish food. Go to Wood Oven in South Woodford, better food, better service and 1000% a better... More

When Sheesh first opened the atmosphere was great. Even though you only have the table for two hours it was ok as the service and food were good. Unfortunately the service and food has deteriorated. The waiter did not smile once, the food is just ok and the atmosphere is bad. Staff are miserable, which indicates management may not be... More

Driving through electronic gates in to the secure carpark was impressive I must say. As we walked from the car it was like being in another world. Orange people......Had we arrived at the right place or was it a rest home for people that had been tangoed? We were welcomed by front of hoise staff, very polite and our waiter... More

This was my first time at Sheesh and I was most impressed. The food was tasty, with very large portions, but not hot! I ordered (fish) which was just warm when served-i was a little disappointed with that. However, the excellent service, and the personal touch from the waiter made up for the temperature of the food. I will recommend... More

The food is average Turkish quisine dressed up to look nice. The waiter was very unhelpfull and stood tapping his pen while we viewed the menu, and the drinks took for ever to turn up. But the worst part of the evening was the wrinkly old man in charge, he would be more suited running a sandwich bar than what... More

I have been to Sheesh many times, celebrating my 50th birthday with my family, with several couples, clients and on this occasion with three other female friends.The food is ok, and even though overpriced the surroundings make up for it. In the past we have been happy with the service, however on this occasion the service was appalling, the waiter... More

Good basic food, however it is over priced. Too busy and loud, full of fake tan and attitude. Second visit and found lunch time tone more civilised. There are so many better places to go for your money .
