Anatolian Palace Gloucester in Gloucester

What a joy to eat here. Like being in Istanbul. Really simple restaurant serving great food quality, service and hospitality. Full house aswell .

Great food and excellent service 😄

Absolutely brilliant! Scrumptious food, excellent service. We celebrated our friend's birthday; and the staff organised a lovely little ceremony for him at the end of our meal, greatly appreciated. We will definitely come back. Special thanks to lovely Mehmet who helped us throughout the evening!

OMG. The food was amazing. I had a feta salad. I know it was only a salad but the ingredients were so fresh. The salad dressing was plenty of olive oil mmm yummy and something else. The feta there was a very generous helping. My daughter had wraps of course I tasted the dish again delicious. My son in law had the big dish of food it looked amazing. I had to take my salad home as it was so much. Excellent value for money. They were so busy bit there was not a long wait for food. Definitely worth a visit.

Fabulous food, great service but be prepared for things to get very loud and wild if it's someone's birthday. Great fun.

We regularly come here for the lamb chops, halloumi, and hummus. The lamb is the absolute best, and the staff is always so welcoming and accommodating. Love it here!

Myself and my partner dined here on Sunday 9th March and were blown away from the minute we walked in having received a very warm welcome. The menu offered a great selection of Turkish dishes, we were spoilt for choice. The food came promptly and the staff were attentive throughout. Our complimentary bread and dip starter set the tone for what was an absolutely delicious and tasty authentic meal. We could not fault anything and will definitely be visiting again. Would highly recommend, you will not be disappointed.

The food here is top notch you really get what you pay for. Everything from the presentation to the quality, to the temperature cannot be faltered. I’ve been here a few times now and it’s very consistent. Service is excellent and also rather funny sometimes, p.s. if it’s someone your dining withs birthday, make sure you let them know… And of course the atmosphere is nothing short of energetic and alive. Anatolian Palace really is a great place to dine

Excellent Turkish food and beer good value large portions

Really friendly staff and good quality food

Had the 2 course lunch deal today and was blown away. The fresh bread was amazing. The calamari and chicken a la créme were so tasty. Impeccable service as well. Will definitely be visiting again :)

10 out of 10 on the food, 100% recommend going with friends or family for a meal, good vibes, good people, shout out to Shafiq good and friendly waiter

Came here on 27th Feb for my Mums birthday. So glad we did, Shafiq our waiter took such great care of us. He was so attentive to us and made sure we were having a very positive experience. The food was incredible and authentic, the restaurant was beautifully done out and most of all the staff really make your night. Singing and dancing to 'free from desire' with the restaurant joining in made my Mums evening. Thank you shafiq and the rest of the team. We WILL be back!

Had a lovely family meal for my birthday, the food and service was excellent as usual and our waiter Shafiq was amazing nothing was too much trouble and we had a fabulous time. Thanks so much Shafiq.

Visiting Gloucester for a couple of days. Passed by this place on the first night and it was very busy so we booked for the following night. So glad we did. Great food and a wonderful atmosphere. Sisi made us feel very welcome and was very helpful with our menu choices. Would highly recommend.

Very good food, I recommend the menu (assortment of cold starters and grilled meats), which is very good, but very plentiful! In the end, £40 per person. The place is lively with quite a few birthday songs, the staff is very attentive and helpful.

Best meal and service I've had anywhere in a long time!

Charlie is the best. We will definately call again

Zain was out server and had great service. Would recommend and will come again.

We were given a gift voucher as a present and used it to pay for a wonderful lunch. All the food was delicious and the service excellent.

Food was really good, really good service from a waiter called zain. Lovely guy and took care of our table at all times thank youu

Zain thanks so much for your wonderful service. Kind and a happy person.You made us feel warm and welcome.The food was 10/10

Best restaurant in Gloucester, very good service thanks to Zain

My first time eating here. Our server was Zain, a very polite and attentive young man. He was very helpful and we will definitely come again.

Lovely food and staff are super lovely. Zain was really friendly and welcoming and helped with anything we needed. Big time

They resolved my concern we went back and enjoyed it and had great time

Overall we loved it today we celebrate our 1st wedding anniversary and they made our day ❤️🌸 whole staff is amazing and lovely 🌹

Excellent service. Spotlessly clean .food was of a hign standard . good value for money 💰 will be returning

Had an amazing meal here 15/02/2025 with some friends, the restaurant was busy but we had a great time. The music was loud and in theme but even louder when singing for people's birthdays which was so much fun. We were served fresh hot bread and dips for the table which tasted delicious, we all nearly ordered more! The food came out quick and again was so flavourful and delicious. I had the Lamb Beyti and I can't fault it. The staff were also great! They were welcoming and friendly, very understanding and accommodating when we couldn't hear them due to the birthday music. Cannot wait to plan another meal here!

Food wasn’t cooked properly and service was poor.

Food is always very tasty & served by friendly staff. Best place in the area

Delicious food, generous portions, attentive staff and an atmosphere i’ve never experienced before - amazing experience!!

Brilliant lively restaurant. Food and service is excellent. Boy do they know how to have fun . Highly recommended.

Amazing food and drinks! Turgut thank you for the friendly service as always! Would highly recommend

Brilliant food and service by Mehmet

I had an amazing meal at this restaurant! The food was incredibly fresh and packed with flavor, making each bite a delight. The staff were excellent, providing attentive and friendly service throughout our visit. The atmosphere was fantastic, creating a welcoming and enjoyable dining experience. I highly recommend booking in advance, as it’s a really busy restaurant.

Perfect night whit my family amazing food Highly recommended Delicious house specials 10/10 Great staff 👍

Best turkish food ever. Good service frendly staff. Definitely we come back. Highy recommended 10/10

I had an amazing experience at Anatolian restaurant. That's a wonderful place for all halal food . The food is delicious and the staff is friendly. Spontaneous service. I would love to visit it again. 10/10.

Really dissapointed as we have been on two occasions and have waited longer than 40 mins for our food, not particularly busy time we visited and we only had pide, Lahmachmum.

Already my second visit and definitely not the last one . Fresh food , fantastic friendly service and lovely atmosphere.

Excellent meal at Turkish restaurant in Gloucester Quays. Hot meze did not disappoint followed by Lamb shish with rice and salad. Service was first rate and Mehmet was very welcoming Recommended

Amazing food, amazing service. Great restaurant and decoŕ. Highly recommend

Very great experience, food was amazing

I don’t know who made the bread and lahmacun , but this is one of the best lahmacun and bread I have ever had in my life also the cocktails are phenomenal. I am pretty sure the bar man is doing a great job. Definitely recommending Anatolian Palace Gloucestershire

Popped in with daughter , lovely place 😄 lovely staff 😉😁we will be back , especially for the mint tea !

Good service, enjoyed the meal and drinks. ,turgut so welcoming and we will be back again

I loved the hospitality offered here.Nice staff and sweet food.

For them sujuk is normal sausage and sarma is cut tortilla. Not sure if the blinking lightbulbs are effect or defect. Tuesday was a busy night - they kept adding more and more tables until you can barely move. Grossly overrated.

Well, what a pleasant surprise! My first visit to this restaurant and it brought back happy memories of the many times I've visited Turkey. The restaurant was extremely busy which, I think, is a testament of thier popularity. We had a short wait for our pre-booked table but we were able to get a drink at the bar easily enough. The bar staff, although busy, had a smile for everyone. We were seated soon after. We found the table a little small for all 7 of us but it wasn't too bad. A short wait before our orders were taken but we had lots to talk about. The food arrived all together and was actually delicious and plenty of it. The atmosphere continued with several birthday celebrations and some singing and a little dance around. I found this typical of the Turkish nights I'd experienced many times. All the staff were very welcoming and couldn't do enough for you. The ladies toilets were lovely and clean. They did run out of toilet roll but that was soon rectified once they were informed. All in all, the whole place was spotless, cheerful, friendly and a pleasure to visit.

Was really disappointed although the food was so good the manager ( guy that wears a black top ) was so so rude to me, at the end of the meal I asked for a receipt and the guy says "it's receipt not receipts if you want one" extremely rude, there was absolutely no need for it, I was extremely polite as I work with the public myself so I always go the extra steps to be nice. Such a shame because I'll never go back now because of this awful rude service.

Yasin was very helpful with the food choices and made our stay at the restaurant unforgettable. Food was delicious, amazing atmosphere!

Came shopping for the day and was ready to eat late afternoon although it was empty when we arrived but read reviews and came in to lovely welcoming staff. The food was absolutely delicious 10/10 So fresh freshly cooked and a taste sensation. Would strongly recommend and we will definitely be back (from Birmingham)

It was my 1st time here and the food and service was 1st class

Impeccable service, a great atmosphere and one of the tastiest turkish food I've had in a long time.

This place was great, the only thing that stopped it being an 'excellent' review is that the food came too quickly, the starters were there almost immediately after ordering and the mains arrived just as my wife was finishing her last mouthful of starter. This was maybe because we went on a cold January Tuesday and the place was not very busy. The staff were nice, especially our waitress Christina (Christiana) who was smiley and helpful and with whom we had a nice chat after we had finished eating. Food was all good, nice big helpings, too big for my wife so she had a doggy bag, which I ate the following day. We had the mixed hot starter to share, with complimentary bread (made in house) and dips. For mains we had a lamb and a chicken Yogurtlu with chips. that is a kebab with yoghurt and tomato sauce. We also had a very nice bottle of the red Turkish house wine (recommended by Christiana) We didn't have room for any Baklava which was a shame because it looked nice. Did mange to squeeze in a bit of Turkish delight when paying the reasonable bill. Would i go back, definitely.

First visit, but certainly not the last. Food and service was exceptional. Our party of four people had the lunch menu which was full of delightful flavours. We had plenty to eat, and it was all served by the very knowledgable and caring staff. The quiet atmosphere was broken when the staff arrived in traditional dress to sing to a diner celebrating her birthday. It was wonderful and we thank you all for everything. We will be back.

We went here for a Christmas Work night out and it was amazing! 16 people and all our food came out at the same time, brilliant waiters, good fun, very reasonably priced!

The service is more than fantastic, the staff are so friendly and patient, the food is the best ,I never felt that way on my birthday before,thanks so much

Great service. Fantastic food. Friendly staff

First and last time. They charged me for extra bread unlike most of Turkish restaurants. Which I thought it’s complimentery because of the food delay..they Took ages to bring the main to the table. And very weirdly charged us for chilli sauce !!!! ,After all. The food was very ordinary.service is very poor. Never again.

We have spent a great Christmas Eve night . We have enjoyed a very delicious food as usual, amazing atmosphere and a brilliant service by a smiled , very kind and always happy to answer all our desires and needs Sevdelina Vodenicharova. We are thankful for the last night and any other before and definetely recommend that place .

Last night was perfect for me and my family and friends to celebrate New Year at Anatolian Palace, amazing food and atmosphere and friendly staff Thanks - SISSY see you soon🍀♥️🥂🎊

Amazing New Years Eve the atmosphere was wonderful delicious food and big thanks to our waitress Sissy will back again soon

The food was very delicious, Sisi served us, I am fascinated by her. We will visit the restaurant again.

We had a family lunch and the food and service were brilliant. Our server Sisi was excellent, a great asset to the restaurant.

Turkish food is easy.. keep things simple and make everything fresh. This is what Anatolian place gets right. Service is also very good and the staff is very attentive. Bread is fresh off the oven, but perhaps not enough for the sharer platter.

The food here is simply amazing! Each dish we sampled was full of flavor and expertly prepared. I highly suggest trying the kıymalı pide and house special.

Gorgeous place, fantastic food and extremely friendly staff. What else do you need! We have tried cover (liver) and kanat (chicken wings) and both were delicious.

Very happy, food was great. We will be back again soon. Sisi was great 👍👍

Highly recommended, excellent food great staff and our waitress Sisi was fantastic, we’ll be back again soon!

Incredibly delicious food, Sevdalinka serves, top!

Excellent place and great service from Sisi, we came here last year for our work party and again this year. Highly recommended.

This place was electric. Visiting in December around Xmas time and it was packed to the brim. Great buzz as there are random break outs of anthems every now and again. Service was great, very attentive. Food was epic, we went for the house grill which was loaded wings, kebab, chops, shish really succulent meat. Top marks guys, well done.

This the best turkish restaurant in uk . Staff is very helpful , friendly and food taste amazing . Definitely I will be back again

Admittedly I didn't realise what this restaurant was about ...and had I known I would never have set foot in the place. The food was good and the staff polite and friendly...and that's where the positives end for me unfortunately. Every 15 mins deafening blasting music is put on...to the extent the table vibrates and your ears hurt...everyone gets up to dance and sing...its so loud it's unbelievable. And if its someone's birthday...more ear drum splitting music is put on and the birthday person then prances around the restaurant in a cloak. Then brace yourself for "Sweet Caroline" enough to actually burst your eardrums. If you are into all this...this is the place for you...I only wish I had known as it definitely wasn't the place for me....horses for courses and all that but I didn't have a clue of the noise levels here. My idea of hell and my ears were still ringing when I got home....if you are thinking of booking this restaurant please advise all in your group what it's like....no one told me and had I known I wouldn't have gone. You can't really have any conversation please bear that in mind...my idea of pure hell to be totally honest.

Everything was great, many thanks to all the staff, especially Mr. Yasin,

Absolutely loved the atmosphere and food ! Staff were kind and friendly ! Food was fresh and very good quality! Highly recommended !

One of the best Turkish restaurants we've been to. The staff were super friendly, always checked up on us and took care of us. Food was brilliant!! I was very impressed with the salads when usually they are bland in most places. It was super fresh and tasty! Will definitely be coming back here again.

Nothing to nitpick about here - an absolute 5 star! Very busy place but full of friendly and happy staff. Huge portions of food with very reasonable prices. My lamb shank tasted tender and fresh! It just took 15mins ish for the food to arrive. They got one of our food wrong but dealt with it well, and it didn’t take too long for the right one to arrive. Free bread and after meal sweets.

We visited Anatolian Palace for our wedding anniversary and had an absolutely wonderful experience from start to finish. The staff were incredibly welcoming and attentive. When we arrived with our little one, they quickly provided a high chair, and when that one wasn't quite right, they immediately brought another one with proper safety belts. Throughout our meal, every staff member who passed by checked on us, making sure we were comfortable and happy with our food. They were also very friendly and cheerful to our boy - played with him, spoke to him and made him feel really excited. The food was exceptional. We started with calamari, ciger (livers), and garlic mushrooms. The calamari was so delicious that my husband wished we'd ordered a second portion! They served fresh bread with dips before the meal, which was perfectly soft inside with a lovely chewy texture. For main courses, we had Lamb ribs (Kaburga), it was perfectly cooked, tender, and a very generous portion and the Chicken a la crème - very delicious and creamy. For our boy, we ordered chicken nuggets which he enjoyed; as he didn’t spit this out. These came with fries, peas and ketchup. The portions were generous, and everything was cooked just right. The rice and salad that came with our meals were fresh and flavorful. We also tried their mocktails - I had fuzzy peach something (can’t remember what the name) which had the perfect balance of sweet and sour, while my husband had a virgin piña colada. What made the evening even more special was watching how they celebrated other guests' birthdays with traditional Turkish singing and clapping. The atmosphere was so warm and festive. The entire experience was perfect - from the food to the service to the atmosphere. I can't find a single fault with our visit. This has become my new favorite restaurant, and I'm already planning to return for future celebrations. If you're looking for delicious food and exceptional service in Gloucester, I couldn't recommend this place more highly. A genuine 5/5 experience! Thanks guys

Came here with friends last night who'd been several times before, i found it to have a great atmosphere and really friendly staff, the food was good quality as well, will definitely come back in the new year.

Excellent service and attention from Mehmet and the team. Beyti was superb as was the lamb!

What a great place. Came for a birthday celebration. My husband and I shared the platter and it was plentiful, hot, tasty and fresh. Really recommend coming here if you are hungry and like nice food

It's amazing beautiful presentation clean environment very culture based the thoughts that goes into entertainment is off the scale e would promote an invite others top notch

We took our granddaughters for lunch and we all loved it! Food is excellent and Sisi is the best!! Can’t wait to go back! Highly recommend

Fabulous lunch today. 😊 Food amazing and great service. Our waitress was lovely and very attentive but not overpowering. Would definitely recommend.

This was a lovely super friendly restaurant. The staff were all very professional and welcoming, they were very attentive even when the restaurant was busy. The food was absolutely amazing and huge portions. Strongly recommend. Our hostess was Sisi and she was so professional and welcoming.

Went in for our daughters 10th birthday, not knowing what the food or service would be like. Absolutely the best service from all but especially Sisi, she kept checking on us, making a fuss of my daughter, just all round a nice person. Food was amazing! Daughters came out before outs which was lovely that she didn't have to sit waiting! Will definitely visit again!
