Good food, hygiene's had some notes. Probably fine.

The food's genuinely great and the hygiene issues are "Improvement Necessary" — not catastrophic. Worth a punt if you're not a germaphobe.

Kurdish food is great, hygiene is great, just wait.

SHKAR Restaurant LTD is like stepping into a culinary minefield—five-star hygiene but a few bad reviews that make you wonder if the food is worth the risk. Mohammed Mohammed had a lovely experience, praising the kebabs and attentive staff. Meanwhile, there’s N, who also found good service and affordable prices. But let's not sugarcoat it; a couple of diners have had issues with portion sizes and meat freshness.

The vibe seems to swing from excellent to a bit concerning. You can enjoy an authentic Kurdish meal, but be prepared for a potential waiting game, and don’t be surprised if the staff look like they’ve just finished a marathon when you finally get your food. Better keep your expectations in check. 🥙
