City Sweet Centre - Newham

I visited this restaurant with my family. The seating arrangement was cramped, with tables only set for two people and little space for dishes. The tables were dirty and the man at the till was very rude. They now charge for water instead of providing jugs like before. The chutney was served in small containers instead of bottles on the table, and they were very stingy with it. Despite these issues, the food was delicious. The service was not up to par and the man without a beard was arrogant. The tables were so close together, separated only by flimsy covid shields. I would not recommend this restaurant for families or anyone who values personal space.

City Sweets has been consistently serving up the best sweets and savories for over 35 years. We have been loyal customers for all those years and have never been disappointed. Their high-quality ingredients, consistent flavors, and family-run business make them stand out. Their peras and jalebis with a hint of citrus have a unique and delicious taste that sets them apart as the best in town.

I called today (19/12/21) to inquire about the availability of jalebis and was told they would be ready at 10:30am. I purchased five boxes of jalebis and other snacks. However, I was disappointed to find that the jalebis were cold and unappetizing in appearance. The quality of both the service and jalebis has declined over the years. I have decided not to return to this restaurant.

Can 't really eat in there. Takeaway only really. Our family has been a customer for over 45 years, though less of late. The price hikes have been ridiculous in recent times (certainly not in line with inflation) The quality of food seems to have dwindled over the years. So too, has the customer service. All the staff really. It now ranges in between pretty average to pretty atrocious. All this has meant our regular visits have now been reduced to just a couple of times a year. Diwali and perhaps the odd birthday.......... and that is ONLY for the Jalebis. The JALEBIS are really the star of the show at City Sweet Centre. When they 're fresh, they are crispy and crunchy on the outside, and fragrant and sweet on the inside probably the best in London, but only when they 're freshly made I can 't stress that enough. Mawa (or Khoa) ki barfi and Khoa peray are good too. The savoury items are so ridiculously overpriced, its unreal. Considering most of the ingredients are are fairly basic, readily available and inexpensive, and the items themselves not very labour intensive. Check the price of an extra bottle of the pani in the pani puri and you 'll see. It 's 80% 90% tap water, flavoured with tamarind and spices. Samosas (and their filling) and all types of ghatia are very very average. In fact most savouries are very average and there 's no knowing how fresh (or old) the stuff on the shelves is. We 've resorted to making our own samosa 's, dhokra and other savouries at home and hands down they 're better. But like I said, if you have a sweet tooth and you like Indian sweets, then City Sweet Centre is the place to go. The clue is in the name and the Jalebis are legendary. If it 's Indian savoury food you like, you could probably eat better locally and cheaper elsewhere. It would have been a very generous 3, possibly 4 out of five. City Sweet loses two stars: one for below average customer service and one for it 's daylight robbery prices. But gets one star back for the best fresh jalebis around. An overall generous score of 2 out of 5.
