Patrons rave about the massive portions—one meal often leaves diners satisfied and full without feeling guilty about the cost, making it an excellent value for budget-conscious individuals.
The fish and chips stand out, being crispy and flavorful, with each bite exuding a sense of home-cooked goodness.
The casual and welcoming atmosphere invites patrons to linger longer, creating an enjoyable setting for both conversation and companionship.
Additionally, the engaging staff enrich the experience, often sharing cheerful greetings or even teaching visitors a bit of Turkish, adding a personal touch to the meal.
Most Disliked
During peak hours, seating can become scarce, especially on Saturday evenings, which may require a wait for a table or your meal.
Some diners find the extensive menu a bit overwhelming, but many argue that offers a plate for every craving.
Occasional reports mention that certain dishes can take longer during rush hours due to high demand, which may frustrate those in a hurry. Overall, these inconveniences are minor compared to the delightful experience Good Chef offers.

If you're hungry and in Leicester - you absolutely need to come here! 😍 🌯 This review is long overdue, been many times during the pandemic and every time I've come its been no less than 5 stars. ⭐️ What's to say? The food is great, the staff too and the interior and atmosphere is so tranquil. 🕊 Its the only place in Leicester that makes you feel like you're back at home/ abroad being served food from a loved one. 🥰 Come here if you want to feel what it's like eating on holiday again... 🌴 They make every dish here; if you want Turkish food come here! If you want kebab food come here! If you want just a coffee or a tea come here!☕️ The staff have been even teaching me some Turkish phrases. Good Chef, Teşekkűrler
