Great food. Majoring staff great. This could have got 5 stars for service if the first staff member didn’t try to imply we could not be seated as we didn’t have a reservation. Thankfully the manager intervened and found a way to be hospitable. Will defo go again if in town.

What a fantastic place to eat. This is a gem for genuine Turkish food lovers. We ate here last night, the portions are huge and utterly delicious. Quality is outstanding and the staff are so friendly and know their stuff!! I felt like I was in a beautiful Turkish village having a fantastic meal. Initially I thought expensive, it was not . It was and is amazing value. And we are back again tonight.

Dropped by Aspendos for a quick meal. Tried falafel starter served with humus and bread and the taste was amazing. Not like the arabic falafel, but still very good. Humus had a great taste too. The best part is that its halal restaurant with a large selection of meat items. Will definitely visit again to try more things. The atmosphere is calming, cleanliness well maintained, ambience is great, service was quick. The staff was very hospitable and welcoming. The restrooms were clean n maintained too.

AWFUL STAFF! If I could leave 0 stars I would. My parents had an awful experience. My mum had a medical emergency which required an ambulance to be called. During the whole ordeal, one of the waitresses was commenting (in Turkish to the other staff which she did not know my dad speaks) that my mum is drunk! My mother has never had a sip of alcohol in her life. She also was frustrated that the ambulance being called would prevent them from closing on time! The worst thing you can do in such a situation. No one needs to hear their wife be spoken badly about whilst trying to support her medically. Also don't operate on wild assumptions that they can't understand you in Turkish. The manager, who only speaks English, was kind and attentive and once he found out what had happened, was apologetic. My mum is okay thanks to the lovely manager who called the ablulance and the amazing paramedics in Ashford! Edit: Your replies makes no sense as I was not the customer that was "refused service to"! The reply to avoid responsibility is ridiculous. You know well that is not true. Rather than training your staff not to talk badly about your customers assuming they wouldn't be able to understand you, you decide to portray a lie. I am sure your CCTV cameras would beg to differ about not seating my parents or about anyone being intoxicated. A fact which the paramedics could also confirm. You should be relieved she was okay! Instead you avoid responsibility, which makes you appear in an even worse light. Great job!

This is where most of our Friday night is spent for our family dinner. We moved around here 2 years ago with our two children. The staff are always so helpful. Their lahmacuns so good we always order if available. Their quality and taste of meat is so good and both rice and bulgar is always perfect. They always give you warm turkish bread with yoghurt sauce and salad. My son wore a turkey tshirt because he chose the best country at school to be 🇹🇷 and the kids really love eating here it reminds them of pur holidays in Turkey. Thank you for always serving us with such kindness and we love your chilli sauces too 😋❤️ We've been to two Aspendos one in Deal and the Ashford one is the best so far! 👌

My husband and I have found a new favorite Turkish restaurant. Our fave go to dish is the Kebab Grills. There's an option for 2-3 people or 5-6. The food is delicious and pretty consistent in terms of taste. We have never dined in usually order take away. Great portion sizes and tasty meals. My husband loves the lamb chops and I the charcoal grilled sea bass.

I recently dined at Aspendos in Ashford, and I must say, it was an absolutely fantastic experience! The food there was incredibly fresh; you could really taste the quality. The Lahmacun was a personal favorite; it had the perfect balance of flavors, and the thin crust was just delightful. As for the lamb cubes and mixed grill, they were nothing short of perfection. The meat was cooked to perfection, and the seasoning was spot on. It was a real treat for my taste buds. The overall atmosphere and service were fantastic as well. The staff made us feel welcome, and the ambiance added to the overall enjoyment of the meal. I'm already looking forward to my next visit to Aspendos for another delightful culinary adventure! And for the lovely Brazilian guy, Muito Obrigado

Visited Aspendos Ashford last night, somewhere we often go for dinner. They have dramatically reduced portion sizes but kept prices the same. The mixed kebab is something we have every time as it’s a great dish for sharing. But the portion size has reduced so much it can only serve one person and is still £21.50, very expensive main meal for one. We also ordered the Cadbury icecream for dessert which is actually whipped cream and not icecream, we sent this back. They didn’t have another item on the menu that we ordered available. Staff were attentive only when you had their attention, other than that they were on their phones at the bar. There were only 2-3 tables occupied at once so it wasn’t busy at all. Overall very disappointed as we have been going here for years but will not be returning, the value for money has dropped and you can get a nice meal elsewhere in Ashford for a lot cheaper.

3* given only because the food is tasty. But the prices have gone up, the meat portion is smaller and the rice/bulgur larger. Overall one receives more food than could eat anyway. Today we had a particular poor service from a young girl who didn't have a clue what she was doing and didn't even know the menu. We didn't receive our drinks and had to ask for them, then only one arrived and had to ask again for the second one. We asked for plenty of ice and we received 1 cube only in one of the 2 glasses (!). She also forgot the chips we ordered so had to ask her senior colleague for them. The yoghurt chicken shish came without pita and the adana kofte without its salad. We gave up asking for these items as clearly there was a problem with the staff. If there was not enough time to train the young girl, I assume she could have at least treated the clients the way she would expect a service to be wherever one eats out: menus- order- drinks- food. I had a friend with me who asked to eat there for the 2nd time as he loved it the first time. This evening he said he would not return as the poor service spoiled his experience. This review does not apply to the other members of stuff who probably work hard there trying to compensate for the ones not doing their job properly.

My wife and I attended this venue as it was one of only a handful of Halal options available to us for our visit to Ashford. We attended and were seated. The place was empty but within half an hour of our arrival it was packed and really vibrant. We ordered a platter for 2 and our initial thoughts were wow this is expensive at £48 but then the food arrived and my goodness, I quickly forgot the price. It was just exquisite. I would firmly argue that it was probably the best Turkish food I have ever had and it was worth every single penny of what I paid for it. This was our first visit to Ashford, and to this venue. Whilst I can't say much about other parts of our visit, Aspendos was most definitely a massive highlight. I would definately recommend.

My wife and a friend of hers plus myself visited this restaurant yesterday, 7th February, and all in all had a very enjoyable meal in a very nice establishment. My wife started with Humus while her friend had the spicey sausage Sucuk. I went for the garlic mushrooms. For the main meal the ladies shared the Aspendos Special. It defeated them but I conquered the lamb casserole. Generous helpings of well cooked food at a reasonable price which, including drinks came to about £25 each. Recommended.

The bread that came with the meal was hard rock which we were unable to eat. portion of £35 meal was only one third of what is usually served in the restaurant. The bread was heated in microwave rather than grilled which are spiced when served in restaurant. Only 1 pot of chilli and garlic sauce was sent for meal of 3 people. Extremely disappointed on the portion size reduction and the quality of the food received today.

I booked Aspendos in Ashford for my step-dads birthday meal on a Saturday evening for a table of 9 of us. The restaurant itself is rather small and I questioned whether there would be room but luckily they had reserved a nice big table tucked away to one side. The food was delicious and our waiter Carlos was absolutely brilliant… can’t say the same for the others though. Carlos was serving almost all the tables and was so lovely and bubbly despite running around taking care of not only the customers but also the staff. Half of the staff members showed clear signs of not wanting to be there which did put a downer on the evening and service.

As soon as we walked into the place we were ignored. We made ourselves known to the waitress asking for a table of two. To our surprise they ignored us and sat down the table of 5 behind us and then another table of two behind us who definitely had not booked a table. No explanation, just completely ignored. Not much to say about the food as we didn’t try it, we walked out.
