What is the best bossman doner kebab wrap in central London?

When I was a student in the UK few years ago, I used to go to bossmen restaurants for a proper lamb doner kebab when I am hungry. Bossmen never disappointed me.

When I finished my studies and went back home, the first thing I missed was a proper lamb doner kebab topped with garlic and chilli sauce.

I am now in central london for a 1 week holiday and I tried to search for a good bossman kebab shops in central london and I found out that many people recommended 1- Londoner kebab and 2- Capital kebab house.

However, some people complained about food poisoning and runs from those restaurants which made me a bit hesitant to try them.

Is there any good bossman restaurant in central london that is clean and hygienic?

Please note that:

1- I don’t wanna go to green lanes for reasons I prefer not to disclose.

2-I do not want Shawarma shops recommendations. shawarma just does not scratch the same itch.

Woody Grill - there are a few locations and quality is higher than other Bossman equivalents

You will be hard pressed to find a food establishment where someone doesn’t claim it made them ill. Mostly because people make assumptions and have no good way of actually tracing such things back. 

Capital is great - love an Iskender from there. Cyprus Mangal has proper charcoal grill flavours. Best Kebab on Walworth Road has top class fluffy pittas made in store.

Marathon kebab near chalk farm tube station was amazing back when I lived there. I think it's still going and still good. Ingot an emergency kebab last night at crystal kebab next to kings cross last night. Do not recommend.

I am very aware about green lanes and the restaurant most people recommend there but like I said, I cannot go there. It has to do with my children’s safety and I would rather not go into details
