I ordered the Roma Tagliatelle and it had no chicken in it….didnt get my money’s worth. Not ordering from there again
NOTE: THIS IS A REVIEW FROM A FORMER EMPLOYEE.Staff are amazing, food is still as excellent as it was when I stopped working here and the owners themselves are amazing too!Pick up a kebab if you're nearby, best you can get in the country.
This is a typical fast food outlet. Good service and multiple dishes. All halal. Approx 25$ / head. Which is average now for nz.
Good food, reasonable price, good range of different foods pizza burgers chips pasta wraps dine In or take away
Had the most amazing time at Café Eminem! From the delicious food to the cozy ambiance, everything was just perfect. Huge shoutout to the chefs for their culinary masterpieces and the staff for their exceptional service. Can't wait to visit again! Highly recommend to everyone looking for a delightful dining experience. 😊👌 #CafeEminem #GreatFood #WonderfulService #CozyAmbiance
Warm welcome from the workers, they have great customer service. We weren’t waiting very long for our food and it came out hot and steamy. Great food and will highly recommend for couples, friends and families!! 🙂 we will definitely come back next time we are in Palmerston.
We are locals who recently returned home from an extended overseas trip and the first place we wanted to eat at was Cafe Eminem.Food is always great with good portions; the meat is tender and flavourful and the salads are fresh. The food is served quickly! Relaxed atmosphere to wind down, and the owners/employees are lovely - service is impeccable.Highly recommend this place for a good feed for a good price and quality service 😊 we will be back (again) for sure!
First time visitor to Cafe Eminem and we were a large group. Everyone's meals looked great and by all accounts were lovley. I was just unlucky I guess. I chose a chef's special, beef musakka, which maybe isn't ordered that often. Food was reasonably priced and quickly delivered. Staff were friendly. I would order their more regular staples in the future.
Food and Service was amazingSuch an awesome atmosphere tooA real hide gem 💎Will definitely be back again 🤤Thanks guys
Love this place ..always a great feed and staff are helpful and pleasant 😀
Would have to say I'm not mad just disappointed. Seems this place is going down hill . Started going there over 10 years ago, but in the last year , well words can't describe it. The large kebab I got this evening was the smallest I've ever had . I thought it was a kids meal but at adult size price. It's a shame . Hardly any filling in there or even the sauces I asked for , Maybe this will not be my local anymore untill they sort this out .
I've been going here for years. Like 5 years ago it was awesome but now it's kind of slack.If you order any shish or mixed grill meal likely they're basically gonna give you an iskender on chips for more price.. Afghan dabaar is alot better for atmosphere and price picture below was supposed to be mixed grill with shish meat
Normally order to go for me and the work mates but can say that the food ( Mostly get Kebabs Range ) is Top tier!! Service is AMAZING as well and food is cooked right in front of you so you know its always Fresh and ready to go 🙂
All the Food are Delicious and Halal..I ordered Iskender Beef & Lamb.The Place is cozy..I came here on April 2023 on my birthday, then they gave me a complimentary kebab (the bread) & hummus. Thank you
Absolutely love this place. I visit weekly and love the pizzas, pasta and service. Well priced and we can always get a seat which is amazing to me because it seems like an unknown gem in Palmy.
I have to say that never ever have I had a beautiful tasting kebab till I entered cafe Eminem. I enjoyed the kebab so much I went back and got another. Presentation is awesome and the people are extra friendly with absolute amazing customer service. I highly recommend that if anyone is looking for a great place to go for great tasting food cafe Eminem is definitely the place to go.
Always friendly,good tasty food and a fair price given the current climate/food costs.Most of the time service is quick and so if they are busy we do not mind the extra wait.Suggest to give the restroom area a good spring clean,otherwise hang tough and keep on doing your best.Good Luck.
Amazing food even 11 years after my last visit, the calzone and the specialty dish is amazing.The service was decent but they should listen to the customers properly, my mum tried to ask a question only for the staff member to interrupt her multiple times incorrectly assuming she was going to ask for extra sauces when she was actually trying to find out if the dishes sauce contained something she allergic to.Even though the service was not perfect this time I hope to return here next time I'm in town as it is still the best calzone iv ever had.
Love the yummy Lamb & Beef & chicken burgers & wraps here. They also have deserts too. Their Tiramusu cake & cheesecake are divine. 80 seater capacity with Turkish & Italian food. Service was fast. They also have a kids menu. Plenty of street parking. And in the heart of the city on Broadway. Friendly helpful customer service. Great place for lunch or dinner. Quiet atmosphere. Lovely place for family or groups.
