VALUE: 8.5/10



SERVICE AND AMBIANCE: 4.6/10

(Clear Menu)
Now, it is with a heavy heart that I have to give Raja’s such a poor score for service and ambiance, as it is my local burger place that has been a staple within my friendship group for many years. The service though, is nothing short of terrible. I recently went back after a long time to do this review and even phoned in advance with my order so that it would be snappy. The man of few words over the phone said that the food would be 15-20 minutes. Okay perfect, ill watch 20 minutes of YouTube then head down (I’m round the corner). Upon arriving, there was no one in front of me at the counter, only a few boys already sat with their food. The people working there pretty much completely ignored me as they were preparing the kitchen, except from one guy who I made awkward eye contact with about 4 times, still no communication. Eventually my presence was acknowledged and after another 5 or 10 minutes I was finally given my food. The ambiance of Raja’s is fine. Nothing standing out in positive or negative ways but the service has really affected the chicken shops rating.

 


TASTE : 7/10

I ordered the jumbo chicken fillet burger meal- Two fried chicken fillets, Lettuce, mayo and cheese. Very simple, but overall, very nice. The chicken is really crispy but certain parts were slightly chewier than others which is a sign of inconsistency, but the burger overall was great for what is was. I wouldn’t say id be rushing to go back because I know that there are higher quality chicken burgers out there but it was acceptable to say the least.  

 

VALUE  8.5/10

The value would be marked a 10/10 if the quality of the food was better because when it comes to the amount of food you can get for the price, there are very few cheaper. My jumbo burger meal was £8 which also included 2 wings and a portion of fries. As you can see from the photo the burger is massive and I wasn’t even able to finish it so where Raja’s lacks for in other departments, an argument could be made that the value brings it back.

Popeyes Louisiana Chicken Sauchiehall Street

RATINGS SERVICE AND AMBIANCE: 6.7/10 TASTE: 7.5/10 VALUE: 9/10 Service and ambience (Popeyes, Sauchiehall Street) The restaurant has an energetic feel, stepping in you are immediately blinded by its excessive uses of luminous orange and bright baby blue. It's all very cliched 'American South', but it works. It's simple, in your face and extremely family- friendly. There are plenty seats, booths and regular tables but unfortunatley, due to the sheer amount of customers or lack of staff, they are often dirty, ridden with the reminants of the last eaters' breadcrumbs. The self- service is perfect however, allowing us customers to efficiently order our food, with very little wait time.  SERVICE AND AMBIANCE OVERALL: 6.7/10 Taste I ordered the 'Hot Honey Box Meal', a hand- breaded chicken breast in hot honey sauce, topped with smoked cheese and pickles on a brioche bun followed by two chicken tenders and a regular drink, priced all-together at £10.99. We will sol...

Chilos, West End

  RATINGS SERVICE AND AMBIENCE: 8.8 TASTE: 8.5/10 VALUE: 9.2/10 SERVICE AND AMBIANCE: 8.8/10 The restaurant more or less ticks all the boxes needed for a fast food restaurant. The interior is predominantly black and white with stylish, but simple, décor striking a balance between trendy and welcoming. When I went it was a around 9pm so there was lots of seats available and the service was immediate and very friendly. The woman behind the counter explained the ordering process and there was even a guide on the wall to make it even clearer. I can imagine at busier times the service wouldn’t be as good, as there is no self-service machines, which could result in increased wait times for customers, but my experience was very positive. TASTE: 8.5/10 After a thorough analysis of the menu I was drawn to the ‘Double Stack Burger’. It consisted of two beef patty’s, Chilos secret seasoning, Chilos sauce, melted cheddar cheese, mayo, red onions, gherkins and lettuce. As you can see, this ...
