We had the delight in visiting XOXO and it was absolutely amazing. Nicely tucked away and still in the city center, we were greeted immediately upon entering. We head booked a table for our anniversary and so glad we did, as it got busy whilst we were there. We were politely shown to our table, the restaurant was clean, ambience was lovely. Not too loud, lighting was just right. Decor in general was pleasant. We ordered our steak meal, staring with the buffalo wings and a couple of mocktails. The watermelon mojito and strawberry mojito was amazing. They use dry ice which provides great presentation, nice and fresh, very impressive to start with. The starters came out in good time, wings were nice and tender, with delightful seasoning and a layer of buffalo hot sauce. Presentation was good and taste was even better. Fantastic start to the evening. Shortly after our mains came out. T bone steak with chips and a side of peppercorn sauce. I was absolutely taken away, the size of the steak was not just big, but a nice chunk, it looked amazing. The presentation was superb, and the fries were very unique. Our mouthes watering we could not wait to tuck in. We opted for medium, and it was cooked to perfection. Every cut, every bite was delicious and the sauce was beautiful! Great combination with the chips. Half way through I was full, but wanted to keep eating away! Whilst we were deciding on desert at the start, we were so full from the mains we did not order desert, however as it was our anniversary, they very kindly brought out their signature brownie with ice cream accompanied with a sparkler. We were so grateful and completely taken away. It was an anniversary gift from the restaurant. To top it off, the brownie desert was the absolute best brownie we had ever had! XOXO really is one of the best meals we have ever had. Highly recommended!

I am living in Peterborough for sometime now and always looking for delicious dine outs but this place was somehow invisible for me and one of the reason is that it's away from main street location but I finally landed there today and ordered Grill Chicken Burger🍔 with Fries and I can say hand on my heart that it was one of the finest piece of grill chicken with good portion size but for me the highlight was the Fries🍟 and they were crunchy and flavourful. Great experience and will highly recommend this 👍 It looks like a family own and run business and everyone of them was so friendly 👍 ✅Halal Food ✅Budget Friendly ✅Family and Individuals Place

Small place tucked away. Food was absolutely lovely. Chilli sauce was too spicy i could hardly touch it! I know that sounds cliche but it was seriously so hot. The chicken skewers were so good 10/10 with the rice and salad. Service was okay a little slow but friendly.

We decided to go here as it looked quite nice and tucked out the way. We booked in advance although when we arrived we were the only ones there for a while. It soon filled up later on. The staff were really friendly, polite and helpful. I had a cherry daiquiri to drink, and the presentation is great and it tasted nice.. it was just in a slush type form, so it wasn’t quite the “drink” i was expecting.. as I couldn’t drink it - but it was really nice and good either way! We had a tear and share garlic bread for starter, which I’d definitely recommend, it was light and tasty. I then had the XOXO classic house burger with a side of chips. It was really good, presentation was on point, and the stamped brand logo on the bun makes it feel unique! The food was fresh, tasty and really nice. I’d highly recommend a visit.

Food was mediocre which was incredibly disappointing considering the previous recommendations. Steak meat was tough and hard to both cut and chew through, the ribs meat was essentially none existent and there was a lack of sides available for people with sensory issues. Service was however relatively good for the most part. Not a £70 dining experience and wont be visiting again.

Screaming child was the least of my problems. Steak was inedible with how tough it was, pulled rib burger was cold. Nobody bothered to even ask how my meal was.

Recently visited here for dinner and the food was great value and taste. The staff were kind , helpful and accommodating. Environment was nice as well. The only change I would make is - we were brought our burgers on slates which was not ideal, however when we asked for a plate we quickly had one bought over without issue. Would definitely visit again.

My husband and myself ate at XOXO Grill yesterday after a long day in Peterborough and can 100% recommend it. Nice decor, food was amazing, tasty and well presented- their mint tea was lovely, adding a slice of lemon and orange! We had lamb chops and olives as starters and I had the chicken kebab that came with seasoned rice and salad. Hubby had salmon steak with mash and roasted veg. Everything cooked and seasoned to perfection, so no complaints Price was really good too .

Very nice Halal grill place providing plenty of options like steaks, burgers etc. We ordered various items such as pulled meat burgers, which had nice taste however is on the lighter side, so if youre starving and have a big appetite, you can go for two or another bigger burger. Thats what i should have done. Homemade fries are nice curved chips, which were good and sweet potato fries, which were also very nice. Service was excellent. We were very looked after and with kids and a baby where they interacted and gave colours with paper to draw. The atmosphere was also very nice and clean. Definitely recommend booking a table here as the place isnt too big and can get busy. This place does seem a bit overpriced in my opinion but nevertheless a great place to come. Would come here again!

Great food, never a disappointment. This is the first restaurant we ate at when we moved to Peterborough from London. The restaurant itself has a good ambience and the food is prepared fairly quickly. It is advisable to eat in rather than takeaway as the juices from the burger may run through your buns. The meat is good quality and definitely a place to visit. Vegetarian options: There are good vegetarian options available Parking: There are some parking spots on cowgate, but these are few

Who has been paid for these previous reviews! All I have to say is how dreadful our meal was this evening, Last minute choice tonight and jumping on tripadvisor for somewhere new to go this place stood out. Well I have to say how terrible it truly was, served lukewarm drinks in their bottles with a straw poking out that you can barely use! For food I really facied a burger with a difference to be told sorry that ones not available at the moment for two options.. My wife got the steak fajitas which looked, which came out overcooked, (she asked medium rare, it was more on the well done side, I got the chicken sizzler and sweet potato fries numerous things wrong with it, 1. nothing on the plate was sizzling, the bed of onions and peppers (on both Fajita and Sizzler) were a mess which looked like they hadnt seen a frying pan or sizzle ever. Sweet potato fries were put on top of these to make them extra soggy but then they were also undercooked! The chicken on the top was an okay flavour but way overcooked.

I visited here for the first time with my partner and my niece. I was unsure what it would be like as it looks small. I m also a vegetarian so going to a smokehouse I thought I d have minimal choice but I was wrong! I thoroughly enjoyed my meal. The garlic bread was , my partner and niece each had chickens wings which they also enjoyed. For mains I had the halloumi burger, it was very nice indeed! The others had t bone steak and rump. Again, it was thoroughly enjoyable. The biggest part for me though, is customer service. You can eat somewhere, and the service is awful which makes you never want to return. However, the staff here (all of them!) were so friendly and welcoming. They didn t rush you and you felt looked after. The atmosphere was lovely too. I liked the fact it was small, and loved the fact they did not serve alcohol, it seemed to make the ambience that much better. Well, in my opinion anyway. Would I go back? Absolutely. Would I recommend to family, friends, colleagues, meat eaters and vegetarians? Without a doubt. Last, but not at all least. A compliment to the person who always gets left out the chef! The food was perfectly and beautifully cooked. My partner is a chef too and complimented on how great your food was. Thank you again for a lovely night, we will be back again ..soon! Vegetarian options: As I said above, great veggie choices. Dietary restrictions: Catered for allergies. Wheelchair accessibility: Easily accessible for wheelchair users. I was not in a wheelchair but I do have a disability and found it easy to get around

My steak was tasty. Grilled correctly but had two grizzle strips and 40% could not be eaten due to fat. The cold mashed potatoes were very tasty. A very tiny salad was included. The hamburger meat was very good but we ordered with raw onion and did not receive that or any condiments but to pickles. Overall not impressed.

Fantastic food, I can highly recommend the lamb chop starter & the steaks. My colleague loved his Burj Kalifa buger. They have some cool milkshakes as well. The staff are great too. It was so good I booked a table for the following week before I left (as its not a very big place). Parking: Theres a few places to park right outside for free & on the nearby street. Other than that its a paid parking lot nearby.

Good Location, A Bit Small Inside, Service Is Good, Heard So Many Things About The Food, Wasnt Bad But Wasnt Amazing Either, Good Enough For Me, Other Half Wasnt Impressed. Starter Platter Good Value For Money!

Update: my fave steak house in Peterborough. Way better than Middletown s!! Searched for a restaurant serving steak, found this little hideout in Peterborough Centre. Cute space, steak was absolutely cooked to how I wanted; portion was perfect for the steak for 1 person, friendly customer service & staff. No direct parking, find a nearby car park.

Very good, properly done halal steak. Very nice dirty fries. Xoxo burger could be juicier. Overall an excellent place in central Peterborough.

Our waiter Azair was very caring and catered to me and my partner well and even though we were quite indecisive . The lunch menu has amazing value. I d recommend the Angus beef burger but the buffalo wings are the a bit too tangy/salty for my liking 8.5/10 overall! Very happy with my experience

Friendly attentive staff and excellent food. Lamb chop and Hot wing starters followed by the Rump and T Bone steak which were cooked exactly as requested. We went on a Tuesday and it was quiet but that was fine. No alcohol but its all about the food experience with XOXO and the Blind Tiger is next door and we stopped for a pint afterwards. We would definitely go back.

We booked in advance, and im glad we did as its quite a small restaurant with only a few tables. No alcohol on the menu and the soft drinks are expensive! £2.99 for a small bottle of coke and you get that with a straw (no glasses offered). this meant my coke kept fizzing over so I had to remove the straw and drink out of the bottle...nice! There is a large amount to order from the menu. The steak was cooked perfectly and we liked the fact that your side and sauce gets included, other restaurants charge you separately for each item. The peppercorn and mushroom sauce with the steak was really delicious. The food overall was tasty, but its a bit of a wait for the food to come out. The staff was friendly and helpful

Decided to visit here on a trip to Peterborough with the kids and we all had a great meal. The food was absolutely fantastic and the service was brilliant. I had a XOXO classic burger which was full of flavour along with house fries which are nice skin on fries in an interesting shape.

I went here for my birthday in September with my partner and it was amazing! Really good food and fast service. Its a hidden gem down an alleyway within Peterborough and its just so good. Would definitely recommend. Its a quiet place as obviously no one really knows about it, but definitely worth a visit. Just great food all around but be aware that they do not serve alcohol. Featured in my photos is a mocktail that was just as good. I believe this place to be the perfect place for couples and parties to eat at. Highly recommended.

We came to XOXO on Saturday early evening. It was for a special occasion and there was 8 of us altogether. Some of the staff were poorly, so they were short staffed but it didn t show. The chef cooked us all brilliant meals, even when my steak was unfortunately a bad piece they were quick to cook a whole fresh meal for me. Azair was serving us and was so hospitable, eager to check we were okay and enjoying everything and just generally lovely. Would definitely recommend and would love to go back when we re next in Peterborough!

There was couple downside like waiting for booked table almost 30 minutes. Waiting for food was not so bad as was quite big group of us. The hamburgers size are quite small , and I eat on the plate like on some fancy slab. The service was really nice and friendly , nice atmosphere and there no alcohol served which is quite nice.

I notmally do not moan but I ordered several times from Xoxo grill house many times from Just Eat. The restaurant informs me they do not ask for delivery drivers contact number which they should. This is in case the customer rings up however, worst part is i waited over two hours to enjoy my food for party and drivers just. Eat use get lost never follow instructions as they can hardly speak English but the food never turned up but say delivered when it hasnt . I can only email just eat but when asking the restaurant they were rude denying any wrong doing saying it out their control which is understandable but in all fairemess they should keep contact for driver who picks up food in case of emergency. Just eat driver never rang me but it disgraceful as no food but restaurant rude behaviour. Next time i will not order again as this third time this happened. I used other fast food who use just eat, ubereats and hungry house and never had a problem. I writing this as felt xoxo grill would have learnt to improve their services which they have not. I was left with no food a ruined party for special birthday for family who just got back from hospital suffering serious illnesses and was lucky to be alive. If i could a minus rating i would as they told me last time they would improve their delievery services and they not. Sometimes it hard to dine in but xoxo should be responsible for taking contact for delievery drivers as the restaurant could accidentally miss an item what they going to do ring just eat when it closed or wait hour on the phone so they relay communication this disgraceful. The rudeness of the person who answered the phone surprises me how he got the job as he has no people skills at all. Left my family member in tears as i had to go get take-out which was not the same. They had my contact number yet no one rang me.

Food stolen & Terrible customer service. Food was not delivered even though the driver said it was delivered. Made an order for delivery and paid for by card. Had to chase up the delivery and spoke to the restaurant & complained . the person on the phone held no responsibility for the order laying off to the driver. Said that it happens sometimes and to just contact JE for a refund. Said it s not their problem. Also refused to give me his name. Well this is now a problem for them as I will not be a returning customer to this place as it is A SCAM! They have taken my money and I will take my time to leave a bad review as I have been left a bad taste in my mouth even without their food. DO NOT TRUST THIS RESTAURANT SERVICE.

I and some friends had a slightly unpleasant experience at xoxo. When we entered, we were told that a table would become available in about 15 minutes. After waiting 15 minutes outside, it being about 7:15, we were called to take a seat. after we ordered and ate, we were told that our table was reserved by someone at 8 oclock. heres the interesting part... if we had known this from the beginning, maybe we wouldnt have come in to eat. I know thats how money is made, but you still lose customers when you tell them that (you have to leave because its 8 oclock...)

The food was absolutely delicious, beyond expectations. What youre ordering is whatre you getting; if its says spicy, for sure will be, if you want your steak medium, for sure will be. Another aspect what Ive noticed is that they were extremely careful with allergens. Vegetarian options: Extremely careful if you mention about any kind of allergens Dietary restrictions: Extremely careful if you mention about any kind of allergens
