I was confused when I got to the place because it was called shisha king cafe on google, but when we got there there the place was called La Mill. Google maps may have registered 2 different names.

Upon the first look of the place, it has a very non-welcoming entrance. A small wooden door divides the restaurant into indoor and outdoor seating.

The Outdoor seating can get cold (also I visited this place during the winter). We made sure to sit right under the heater.

We ordered Lady killer sheesha, mixed grill, hummus, labneh and shawarma meal.

Hummus was pretty average. I have had better. The Mixed grill and Shawarma were very good and delicious. Their French fries were really good… crispy. I believe they are the Costco fries.

Overall a decent place.

I had high expectations from this place. At first my experience was very bad so I gave it another try and it was little better.I even gave it a third try but my thoughts about it hasn't change. I guess now is the perfect time to review this place.

First visit : We ordered Veg korma and Paratha. It was perfect because they took our order quickly and boom we get our order after 45mins but they promised it would be ready in 20. I still wanted to give this place another try since they were short staffed and service was not great.

Second visit : We ordered Mysore Dosa, Mysore Masala dosa, Masala Dosa, Plain Dosa and Fish fry.
I have to give it to them that the food was good and tasty. But what was familiar was the wait time. It took a long time to get our food.

Third visit : We got everything above, as well as chicken curry, fish fry and this time we said we will come after 45mins. The owner said come after 1hr 30mins. I agreed but asked to make sure it will be done by then. Any guesses when did we got our food? 2 hours!

This time they were fully staffed and had no reason for the wait.

The owner said we make everything fresh. Does that justify 2 hours wait time? NO.

I am giving them 3 star purely on food taste. Every time I ordered, the food was good, but the experience of ordering and waiting wasn't.

Even people dining in were mad and some of them walked out.

All I can suggest is to please make sure you guys have enough staff and if you are giving a certain time, abide by it.

Starting off, the decision to switch from one of their competitors was absolutely worthwhile. This establishment stands out for its cleanliness, reliability, and reasonable pricing.

A special shoutout to Sydney – she's not only knowledgeable and efficient but also goes the extra mile to find deals for customers.

I wholeheartedly recommend this place to anyone.
