"This is a wonderful traditional tasting fish chip shop which has a busy take-away service plus a lovely sit-down area. The food is fried the 'old way ' ie in animal fat, so is not really for veggies. Although I 've tried the take-away, the restaurant really comes into it 's own. The shop is owned by two likeable Turkish boys and their emphasis is on freshness. The waitress who is normally there used to own the shop alongside her brother (Christy). She is the epitome of what a great waitress is-she knows both her clientele and warmly greets you whenever you arrive-and she also knows which fish is the best and will make recommendations.They normally give you a free starter-either a few unpeeled cooked prawns with bread or rolls/butter or mackerel pate-both delicious. The portions are gigantic and well cooked. With the fish comes a variety of condiments-all free. Gherkins, mayo, ketchup, plus a small salad on the plate itself alongside the fish. I 've not managed to eat everything a few times-and I LOVE my fish and chips on a Friday. This is a little gem of a place but because of the method of frying would only go once a month. Highly recommended."

Good chips but really soggy fish. Cod was quite slimey too. Charge £3 for tartare sauce which is a joke. Won’t be trying again.

A blast from the past. Not available where we live in Spain. Great portion size. Lovely curry sauce. Not at all expensive. Very nice indeed.

A traditional fish and chip run by a friendly family, they consistently provide excellent cod and chips, at a very fair price, highly recommended. Take away or restaurant.

from here always had good fresh fish and chips. the teig is always crispy and the chips are always beautiful. the portions are also large and they will not be left hungry. can wait especially Saturday night, but it is busy for good reason. if they call and order in advance, it can save them a little time.

the best fishing and chips in galaxy! the price is amazing eating is amazing the personal is amazing. it is perfect for everyone. the pickles are very juicy and the chips perfectly crispy. it is in a great location to see cars and is right next to a park with a basketball court, so they can score some buckets. swish baby!

Ordered through Uber eats and waited over an hour still not arrived, stated it had been delivered the second it had left the shop, reported via Uber eats, called shop and extremely unhelpful man said it was nothing to do with him??? He could see I had ordered but said there was nothing he can do, very unhelpful, will not be using again either Uber eats or Christys

What can I say?Called by a colleague who was passing locally and wanted a chat and sit on Gigg’s Hill Green, nearby.I had forewarned him that a Hinchley Wood old villager friend, had had a ‘poor experience’ several months back from the same establishment. I had perused the food then, but not tasted it.This time I did. I had one ‘piece’ of the Scampi which colleague had ordered. Really bad indeed.The meat pie looked dire.....the chips were woeful.

"Obon: a petit Japanese udon restaurant that supplies a sense of Japan that cannot be found anywhere else in the whole of the Uk. (5 stars) Location: Obon is located close to the heart of Kingston but the road it’s on is considerably quieter. You must make sure to have a basic knowledge of Kingston in order to find an area to park and to also make sure you leave yourself enough time, taking the unpredictability of the traffic into acount. Even on a week day there can be traffic jams which can put a halt to your plans and due to the small amount of customers Obon can take its important that you not only book but make sure that you arrive at the agreed booking time. With this being said the staff are all lovely so if you are running late, a quick call is all that is required to just give Obon a chance to understand your position. The food: The array of exquisitely prepared sashimi will be sure to create the sensation that you are in a top Japanese restaurant in japan and the flavour of the fish does not fail to match expectations, which will be very high after just one glance at your meal. The fish is delicately seasoned and practically melts on your tongue, this causes a lovely sensation and is genuinely the finest sushi I have tasted in the uk and even matches a lot of the top restaurants in japan. On top of just the traditional types of sushi, which to many is maki rolls Obon also offers many other delicious options such as soft shell crab and even Unagi don, which I must highly recommend due to it consistently being the highlight of my meal. For those of you that were interested in the quality of the basic Japanese dishes such as miso soup or edamame they do not fail to leave you in grand anticipation for what is to come for they are, simply speaking, incredibly good. The miso, in my opinion, is truly remarkable and creates a lasting feeling of warmth throughout your entire body, on top of that it is far superior to other miso’s that I have tasted in all other areas of the world. Overall the quality of the food is something you would expect from a world famous Michelin star restaurant and if you want Japanese food it’s the only place I can recommend. The Restaurant: The restaurant itself is small but authentic in nature and because it only has a enough tables to host around 20 people at the most, the service is exceptionally good and your food is always out quickly so you will not be left hungry for very long. The staff are kind and friendly. And it’s always an enjoyable experience being waves goodbye as you leave the restaurant. You’re also able to watch as they prepare the food, which for some could be entertaining. There are Japanese photos scattered around the room and this further creates an authentic feel. The atmosphere is not lively but it is a restaurant and not a bar so is an ideal location if you are wanting high quality food. With this being said it is still a great place to go with friends and I consistently am able to have a great time no matter the occasion. Price: Obviously, the price of the food is always an important topic to come to and despite the cost of the sushi being slightly higher than you may expect from a small restaurant in Kingston, I would have to say that for the quality of the food it is ultimately a bargain. For three people, you would be spending around £100 so it isn’t cheap but you can go for cheaper types of food such as udon, which is still amazing quality and won’t set you back as much money. Overall: Obon is still my favourite restaurant in the whole of the Uk and is perfect for a special occasion but it isn’t the sort of place you’d go for a casual night out. The food is beyond incredible and thus they can cater for both children and adults by meeting every bodies needs. For anybody that enjoys sushi, I would urge you to give it a go, you won’t regret it"
