"I discovered this venue quite by chance, more because it was in a quieter part of Westfield, away from the crazy fast-food frenzy of the food court which is menacingly dominated by now ubiquitous giants of McDonalds, KFC and Burger King. For my part I have never even heard of Simone Remoli, although I am reliably informed, according to this restaurant 's signage, that he trained in the kitchens of the finest restaurants in Rome, then decided to travel to London to 'extend his knowledge '. That strikes me as a somewhat random choice, given that he was disappointed by what he found. Apparently, that was what prompted him to open his own restaurant, which is how the company came to be. A commendable, if very unoriginal aspiration, I 'm sure. Intrigued by the 'mix match ' concept of the place, I decided to give it a try. I liked that you are able to choose your pasta and your sauce separately, and everything is neatly categorized on a set of menu boards (see pictures). In the event, to save having to make a series of choices, it was easier to order one of the special 'signature dishes ', in this case the spaghetti aglio, olio e pepperoncino (spaghetti in garlic with olive oil and chilli). I also ordered some olives and bread on the side. The bread was a selection of focaccia with an olive oil and balsamic vinegar dip (see picture), coming in at an extra £3.90. The olives were all very firm and green (see picture). also at £3.90. They were nice, but not worth the price tag. The spaghetti came with optional clams, adding another £4.90 to the £11.60 for the main dish, meaning the spaghetti alone cost £16.50! I was surprised at how quickly the pasta arrived, not having considered pasta as fast food before, but I guess it could be. To be fair the pasta was perfectly cooked (no less than I would expect) although it was only lukewarm. But it was good (see picture). The venue itself is actually quite an awkward shape, shoehorned as it is into the side of the thoroughfare, and on a kind of corner, and because of its position by the entrance it is a little drafty. Theoretically, it should be a pleasant vantage point from which to watch the passers-by, but in reality you are simply disturbed throughout your meal by an endless succession of groups of lairy and excitable youths. The chairs are all metal as well, so it isn 't an ideal venue to spend a lot of time in. With drinks, the entire bill came to £30.40 in the end. That is a lot for lunch. It is overpriced, and the portions are not overly generous, but I like the concept, so probably would return. Pass on the side dishes and extras and it would be far more palatable."

"the first American diner opened in 1872, originally as prefabricated almost food restaurant, which developed over the decades to become slimmer and retro. with his development over the years, she revolutionized the American food culture. in the 1950s it became a symbol of optimism and a substantial part of American city culture. in the non-half market arena popularity for American diner restaurants in london has seen a considerable growth, but for Muslim consumers authentic American diner restaurants with halal meat are still rarely found. big moe has met around a decade ago the halal scene with her Beckton bronch, which includes the driving concept synonymously with american diners and finally provides halal food adventurers, the nostalgic and authentic 1950s American diner experience that we longed. big Moe’s has finally opened its second filiale in aldgate, which captures the spirit of the US diner culture with an elegant classic 1950s interior, equipped with a counterpiece, hockey, mini jukebox, 1950s old memory piece and a show-stopping real 1950s chevrolet Bel-Air takes center piece. a team of 13-country workers was involved in bringing their vision to life. the anesthetic of the 1950s-diner era is so well captured that they would forgive if they really felt as if they had resigned in the time. Counter and HockerReal 50 chevrolet Bel-AirJuke Box.Booth seat. for beginners we ordered the family release plate consisting of bbq chicken wings, cheesy garlic bread, stuffed potato skins, mozzarella sticks and wobble rings. the chicken wings were well seasoned, slightly sticky with a delicious grill glaze. the wings were the superlative component of this Sharing plate, with the other elements either up to average or moderate. we found the teig on the thorn rings too crispy for our lust and the potato skins did not seem seasonal. according to our opinion, a chop meat that sleeps on the potato skins to replace the chewing mushrooms, the potato skins would really turn into something more attractive to the taste buds. Nevertheless, the Sharing plate is a copacetic acid option if you want to eat in a group and taste a few dishes. the Diner-mite burger, consisted of two reefed beef patents, smoked chicken sprouts, cajun tweeper rings, smokey barbeque sauce, grated red tweebel, sun ripe tomato, fresh salate and covered with melted ripe Cheddar cheese. that is personally my favourite of big Moe’s. the patty was exceptionally well spiced, with a hauch of spicing through. the patty was beautiful and fleshy, but it was well cooked, so not as succulent as I would have preferred. the smokey skin rashes were divine, with the addition of the caramelized tweezers and grill sauce, which added more taste depth. the wobble rings, slightly reduced my Burger friend, as the teig was a bit too thick for my lust, plus the wobble rings missing season. the sweet potato friars were good, but a touch more would have made them a magnificent one. the tiger prawns were coated in a delicious spicy marinat with a perfect balance of Indian flavors with a hauch of chili, so that the garnelen a kick without exaggerating the fat taste of the marinat. we found the garnels to overcook, maybe for Asian customers who actually cook in the like their garnels to not back. on the other hand, as our garnels juicy and juicy, what would have been achieved if they had been cooked for a few seconds. Although the garnels were overcooked, the taste was prominent and addictive and was juicy, then they would have been sensational. the BBQ clips of big moe; fire grilled and glazed with big moe grill sauce and served with cajun wobble rings and big moe hand cut chips. the ribs, in the middle of the rack, were salacically succultivated, tender, sticky, smokey and sweet; truly divine. However, since it is bark ribs, there was plenty of fat, that was unpalatable. also the edges of the ribs were carburized and the bark was dry and burned. personally, even if I enjoyed the ribs (where there was only meat) a lamb rib option might be a more pleasant alternative. the hand-cut skin on the chips was rustic and gourmet in taste and exceptional appetit. the signature slider of big moe consist of a trio of their best burger – classic beef, diner-center and texan chicken strip, all in freshly baked mini-brown backs. a great option if you can not decide which burger to order. if it came to the taste test, the mini Diner-mite burger would be the right winner for us. the patty was well seasoned with adding the BBQ sauce enough. the classic rindburger was not really to our pleasure, simply because we prefer additional aromas and textures that combine well together to give a truly gastronomic burger experience. this is a burger who would turn to those who prefer simple aromen. for drinks we ordered the oreo milkshake and freshly pressed lemonade. the oreo milkshake was of a very thick consistency that it initially felt like the drawing of thick vanilla ice cream that remained unavoidably stuck in the rough. but as the meal progressed, the milkshake had time to melt and once it was of a lighter consistency, the oreo aroma was prominent and was a pleasant milkshake. we have all 3 aromes of big moes freshly pressed limonade – original, earthberry and lime. the lime was our favorite, followed by the strawberry, with the original, not entirely to our joy. both beverages were refreshing, with the lime and earthy taste passing through. that were great, purer after so hearty eating. for dessert we ordered the hot chocolate fudge sundae, a combination of chocolate and vanilla ice cream, with whipped cream, cadburys flocke, a selection of wafers and served with a special side of hot chocolate fudge sauce to pour. that was a delightful and excellent dessert. the velvety gelato ice coated the palate with smooth chocolate joy, the bright and airy cream was perfect with the rich hot chocolate wing sauce, which was sensational gastronomic. we also ordered the strawberry chocolate waffel – freshly made waffel, generously lined with Nutella chocolate, then covered with fresh strawberry slices with chocolate flakes and served with vanilla ice cream. the waffel was light and airy and in the did generously lubricated in Nutella sauce, with the strawberry, which added fresh to the rich nutella. with only another half American diner franchise in london, we believe that big moes is a step above his rival to bring a hauch from American diner culture to the British halal market. the authentic American diner concept of the 1950s is brought to life exceptionally well in the Aldgate industry of big moe, which is left behind with nostalgia feelings and transported back to a bygone time. No matter whether it is classy American or not, big Moe’s is certainly a place that would appeal families with children. Although some dishes are better done than others, the portions are hearty and there is a little something for everyone. follow big Moe’s 1950s halal food journey. *We were invited to review."

"Avoid! Avoid! Avoid! I don't generally like writing bad comments about places but I felt the need to as I wouldn't want anyone else to experience such bad service as I did. I went just before 8pm and was told to oder online instead. I was told that the food would be ready within 15 mins even though the email said 25 mins. It gets to 8.30pm and I get told by the receptionist that they haven't started on my food yet as they are busy and that it would be another 10 mins. It gets to 8.45pm and she said oh they haven't started on your food yet. As anyone can imagine waiting nearly an hour is unacceptable especially when you have gone into order and collect! I decided by 9pm I had enough and wanted my refund, which then took another 30 mins to sort out. Absolutely shocking and unbelievable! A few other points to also mention: 1- The receptionists have 0 customer service experience and are very rude. 2- Another customer who had ordered online, called over the phone at least 3x times just to find out where their order was. They lied and said it was on the way when the order was just making its way out of the kitchen. Saddest part is that they were laughing about the customer in a very rude manner 3- Another customer came in and ordered 10 mins AFTER me and got his food within 15 mins or ordering! When I challenged them about it, they made up a pathetic excuse trying to say it was something else which didn't make sense. 4- Not even an apology. Poor customer service, and I would even go as far as to question the legality of their employees there, but that is a matter for the correct authorities to investigate. I would honestly Avoid this place and would not recommend it. Don't waste your time or money. There are lots of other honest, decent places."

"Disappointing Experience at GBK Restaurant I recently dined at GBK Restaurant and unfortunately, it was a highly disappointing experience. From start to finish, there were several issues that severely impacted my enjoyment of the meal. Firstly, the service was incredibly slow. It took an unacceptably long time for our orders to be taken and even longer for our food to arrive. Additionally, getting drinks was a nightmare as it seemed the staff were more focused on other tasks rather than attending to customers' needs promptly. Furthermore, the customer service was lacking. Not once did any staff member inquire about our dining experience or if we needed anything. It felt as though we were invisible to them. The cleanliness of the restaurant was also subpar. Tables were left dirty, and it was evident that they hadn't been properly cleaned between customers. This lack of attention to cleanliness is unacceptable, especially considering the current hygiene concerns. To make matters worse, there was no one available to address our concerns or doubts. It seemed like everyone was in a rush, with no staff members willing to take the time to assist customers or address any issues they may have had. Overall, my experience at GBK Restaurant was extremely disappointing. The slow service, poor customer service, lack of cleanliness, and absence of staff availability made for a frustrating dining experience. I would not recommend this restaurant to others and am unlikely to return in the future."
