10 Arcola Street, Hackney, Greater London
About Mangal Ocakbasi
Mangal was established in 1990 and it is a typical ocakbasi, no menu, a refigerated display of raw kebabs, a steaming, sizzling ocak grill, a hot table laden with simmering stews and braises. Hot pide and sac breads accompany starters of lentil soup or garlicky cacik, and ezme is a winning dish of roasted aubergine mashed with olive oil, fresh tomato, green herbs and hot pepper. Mangal is a true open charcoal grill restaurant (ocakbasi). It is a friendly place, a world away from the average British kebab house. There is no menu, everything is fresh and served daily.

Had to verify from staff that meat was halal, which they said it was. Place has gained a legendary status in this part of Town and it did show by the fact we had to queue and wait for about 30 minutes to get a table and be seated. The portions were abit on the small side, but the taste and quality of the food makes up for it.
