I understand that things go wrong but how you rectify mistakes means a lot. Sorry but you have lost our custom. I have been a regular customer of Aspendos even before they opened the restaurant in Deal, often visiting the Dover and Folkestone restaurants. The service and food has always been outstanding which included Deal. This was until we had an issue with a takeaway a few months ago. We had ordered a large meal as a birthday celebration, it arrived over an hour late (which was fine if they needed more time due to it being a larger order) however items were missing and food was cold. We called and advised of the issue which they were apologetic and wanted to resolve. We advised we couldn’t wait another 90 minutes but were assured by the Manager that it would be cooked fresh and personally delivered by him as a form of apology, just give them 20 minutes. The service had always been good so had no reason to doubt them on either front. An hour went by and still no food, so called Aspendos Deal again. The male manager we had spoken to on the phone previously was unavailable to come to the phone, so I was passed to a female manager who told me the food would be there shortly. I advised it was too late, now nearing 3 hours since we ordered, we’d had to cook food for the children and had basically lost faith in receiving the food warm and in a reasonable time. We simply wanted them to not send the food and issue a refund. We were told the restaurant doesn’t manage the online orders (even though we had ordered with them directly and not a third party delivery service) and we would have to use the contact form on their website to request a refund and she hung up the phone. Shocked at this level of service and after no response from multiple contact attempts in the past 3 months, I’m now in the process of claiming back the £90 via my credit card company. I’ve even visited the restaurant and have been turned away by management saying they can’t credit for online orders at the restaurant and that someone will come back to my online contact form as soon as they can. Update: five months on and still no reply to our submissions via their contact form. Seems they have no intention of attempting to rectify the situation or even a simple apology. Disappointed.

Fantastic Turkish restaurant right in front of the pier! Went in for an early dinner at 1715, the restaurant was quite but well staffed. The staff on site were fantastic, very attentive and had a great attitude. We were seated on one of the bigger tables, the seats were very comfortable and the table tops were clean and set out. Ordered the family platter, the bread and starter sauces were all fantastic, well spiced and freshly cooked. The grill came shortly after which was a great size and easily did us a family of four adults and two children. The meats were nicely flavoured and cooked well. All in all the food was a 5/5, the total stars would have also reflected this but lost one on the cleanliness of the floor under the table, it was covered in bits of rice and other foods from the previous customer, easily something missed by the cleaner but something that needs attention. Worth the visit if you fancy Turkish food at a great location.

Opposite the pier this welcoming Turkish restaurant provided an ample and delicious lunch. we started with Tarama and Cacik both served with warm flatbread to dip. Then large mixed kebabs and lamb shishwith sauce and yoghurt. which was accompanied by very tasty rice and salad. The portions were large so we didnt have room for baklava but will try it next time. The young waiter was friendly and helpful as was the waitress. 10/10 for food and service

We had the pleasure of dining at Aspendos Deal today, and it was a wonderful new experience. The staff were incredibly helpful and kind, answering all our questions and offering great recommendations. The food was excellent, with generous portion sizes and top-notch quality. We opted for the two-course lunch menu, and we couldn't even finish our main course! Absolutely delicious, and all for just £10? It's an amazing deal! A special mention to the lovely woman who served us; she offered me a sample of salgam (turnip water) to try, explaining that it has a strong flavor that people either love or don't. Her thoughtful gesture added a personal touch to our dining experience. Overall, Aspendos Deal exceeded our expectations. We highly recommend it for anyone looking for a fantastic meal with excellent service.

What happened? Decided to order a takeaway (we've done so from here on a number of occassions). Never had any issues with portion sizes or price but now they're just a total rip off and have halved the portion we received. Also we ordered 3 seperate meals and they only sent 2 small sauce pots with 1 of them. Unfortunately after numerous orders we won't be ordering again. Another food establishment in Deal getting unnecessarily greedy with their prices.

First of all, ignore the bad reviews! Then, this is one of my favourite restaurants in the UK and as always, it did not disappoint. I own a hiking business and often turn up last minute with a large group, usually around 20 and they always accommodate. Went back this time with 8 people and as always, SO TASTY! My partner is Turkish and I travel to Turkey a lot and get the best of its food but until then, I had rarely found such a good quality of Turkish food in the UK. Definitely cannot wait to be back with another group in a couple of weeks, every time I bring my customers, they are blown away by the savours and the service. Special Shout out to the young guy who took our order, very nice, fun and professional. I would not have been anything like this at his age, maybe 16 or 17. The only thing I don’t agree with him is that Salgam ( Turnip juice) is great 😂 he does not seem to like it as he asked me if I was sure about my order… the young lady was also delightful. The location is also great, on the sea wall and a couple of minutes from the train station. Cok tessekur ediyorum, elinize saglik!

This restaurant is not "probably the best Turkey restaurant in Deal", the boss should remove "probably", it is just the best Turkey restaurant in Deal, or probably the best in UK. The barbecue and shish kebab are just great. The chef controlled the heat very well, chicken breast is usually very hard to barbecue coz it easy got very dry, this restaurant however do it very well, the meet is juicy and very flavoured, the meet also has very good smelling of charcoal, I just can't wait to revisit but sadly they don't have branch at Cambridge. 10/10 experience for me, the food, the service is just amazing, highly recommend.

Taste is lovely. Portions - very generous. May be next time we’d order more starters and then just share the mains (one dish could safely be for at least two people). The pre-starter was some bread with yoghurt mixed with chopped cucumber dip (Cacik). On the house. Then we each had different starters which were all delicious!! The Halloumi, the Sigara Boregi (parsley, cheese rolled in seasoned pastry, fried), Sucuk (Turkish spicy sausage served on hummus). Followed by mains of Chicken shish kebab served with yoghurt, bbq Lamb ribs (which my friend said was the best he’d ever tasted, he literally nibbled them all down to the bone!!). Fresh salad if cucumbers, tomatoes & beetroot was also generously provided.

NOT COELIAC FRIENDLY!!! NOT GF!!! I have Coeliac Disease and whilst at a friends house a few of us ordered there biggest share platter and a few extras, I was a bit dubious because I have to be really careful not to eat gluten so I don’t normally order takeaways although my friend explained to them on the phone and they reassured us that all there meat and rice is completely gluten free and that they are always extra careful for ‘allergy’s’ they said the only thing out of what we’d ordered with gluten was there couscous so they would package that completely individually so everyone else could still have that… When it arrived the couscous and rice was in the same box! This made my friends feel awful but i explained to them it was fine as I’d just have the meat with some salad instead which was packed separately and seemed fine after they’re assured us on the phone it was completely gluten free!! That was a big mistake as I’m now on day 4 of being in bed sick to my stomach, a few hours after eating the meat and salad my mouth blistered and my head started pounding then from the next morning until now I’ve been sick and in agony. I’m not one to complain so I’ve put this off but it’s been confirmed today by my doctors that I’ve been ‘Glutened’ and I’d hate this to happen to anyone else… And my message to the restaurant is please Do Not Assure people your food is Gluten Free because it is definitely not and this is more important than you clearly think it is!!!

Visited again since the new team have taken over. The food is amazing. Tasty and fresh. They make their own chilli sauce that was very nice. The portions are huge. The lunch menu is amazing value. The staff are very friendly and it’s nice and warm on the cold day we visited. I’d only comment on 2 things. 1. A staff member used their phone on speaker most of the time we were in there. This spoilt the atmosphere for me. 2. The management team don’t give the staff the tips they earn if you pay by a card.This practice has to stop. They deserve every penny they are tipped. Luckily we had some cash. Next time I will check again and if it’s not changed I will sadly vote with my feet. It’s expensive living in the Deal so pay up managers. All in all a very nice lunch.

Had an absolute terrible experience with Aspendos Deal this evening, and feel like this needs to be shared. Ordered online at 6:15, was told 25 minutes. An hour later it still hasn't arrived. Called twice to chase. Food finally arrived an hour and a half after we ordered. Food was cold and inedible so we called straight away to report this; was told to keep the cold order (which we binned most of considering it included sea food, meat and rice) and that they'd resend a fresh order. We were told an additional 40 minutes for this which we declined and asked for a full refund at this stage. The call was then passed to someone who said they were the manager, who was apologetic and said they'd personally deliver the food within 15 minutes. 40 minutes later and still no sign of the food so we call again and request a full refund which was again refused. We told them we'd be turning away the order when it arrived which we duly did. Still on the phone to someone who said they were the restaurant manager (who said that the previous manager wasn't available to speak to), they continue refusing a full refund even though we'd received inedible food. They then hung up on us saying that they were too busy and it was our fault for declining the food they had sent out. We then drove down to the restaurant to try to resolve this in person to be surrounded by 4 or 5 staff members and still refused a full refund. We were told that they were confident in the food leaving the kitchen (agree the food has always been amazing) and but told us that their food is completely safe to eat cold. When we advised cold food was not what we expected or received in the past from them, and based on the restaurant prices charged it was not acceptable - their justification was "our take away prices are cheaper". The service was shocking and we are gutted that they haven't given us a refund despite giving them multiple chances to resolve, but after after two and a half hours and still refusing to refund us fully (we did eat the bread which we were happy to pay for) we were forced to leave with nothing and will be doing a chargeback via my credit card. It's really sad as we've always spoken highly of Aspendos and recommended it, but the service we received tonight was shocking and I've lost trust in what was prior a really good restaurant. Please Aspendos review the customer service of your "management" (the front of house staff member we initially saw couldn't have been more helpful and professional. Shame that didn't continue) - if there was an influx in orders manage expectations, don't lie to your customers and certainly don't hang up the phone... Think we were more then reasonable giving them 3x the amount of time stated both times and then requesting a full refund when they failed.

The staff were amazing they were so attentive and friendly, nothing was to much trouble, they made us feel welcome and were so accomodating. they made the whole dining experience a pleasure. The food was lovely, there was so much of it, we were all to full to finish our meals. we were offered the option to take a 'doggy bag' home (my dog loved his treat as well). thank you Aspendos for the lovely service you gave, we will most definatly be back.

The food was cooked amazing but that was the only great thing some of the staff were very attentive but the manager (the one wearing the hijab) was very rude to some if not all of her staff that she doesnt like and was very lazy as she was just sat on her phone and she was very abrupt to me and my friend whilst and after we had eaten our food and as a result I would never go back to deal and I will not recommend it to a friend, which is what she asked us to do, as long as she is in charge of that place. The only nice and attentive members of staff were Oliver, Leon, Lucy and Grace all the rest I think they were new or brought in from a different restaurant as part of the new management that they say is making it better but it isn't they were not attentive at all and they were also very rude and as I said the only nice, kind, friendly courteous and attentive staff were the four names that I mentioned but the rest were very rude, that doesn't include the bar man as we didn't speak to him

Restaurant unexpectedly cancelled order - which had been made twice before. After phoning, the restaurant claimed a change in terms. This was not what was advertised. Very disappointing.

We ordered £30.30 worth of food. Went food arrived the chilli sauce had leaked all out over the food. My partner open his lamb shish and found hair in his food. Plus the lamb shish was suppose to be large yet only got 6 pieces of lamb. The chips where soggy and cold. So I contacted the shop direct and they sent out another lamb shish and a full refund.

Highly recommend. Food is totally authentic and perfectly cooked. Moist and tender Chicken Shish, well seasoned and with generous helpings of sides and salad. Lamb chops were the most tender and melt in the mouth tasty that I have had in many a year. Service was attentive without being intrusive.

On our last visit, the service was terrible. They mostly had very young people serving who clearly had no idea. We waited ages for our drinks and then were told our order had not been put on the system. We reordered and even then they got my husbands order wrong. To round the evening off, my husband found a piece or wire in his kofte kebab. We will not be going back to this restaurant, which is a shame as we had been there before.

Some of the meat was good, some was average. The rice wasn't great neither. Owner or manager was unable to show certificate of halal meat (keeps it at home). The service was just ok: we had to ask 3 times for some water which had a bad taste. We needed to ask twice to have some salt on the table. The positive is that portions were very generous.

On holiday in Deal and visited Aspendos last night. We ordered the sharing platter for two people. The food was delicious and the portions were enormous! Such great value for money. The staff were lovely- friendly and efficient. This restaurant was a great find and we’ll be back,

Having been recommended this restaurant by a few friends, we thought it was time to give it a go. Wish we hadnt. I was very disappointed with my mixed kebab meal. The chicken was actually quite nicely cooked, but really lacked any kind of Turkish...

Nice food. Ordered 4 appetizers which was a lot so I cancelled my main dish. Husband did have mains but ate only half. Price quality rate is good.

We arrived in Deal after an 8.5hr drive from N.Devon. Exhausted and so hungry but also knowing it was not long before closing time. We were delighted to find a Turkish restaurant and we had a fabulous meal! Great wine too. The service was excellent and such generous portions. Next time we will make sure we have plenty of time to savour their delicious food . A place to revisit!

Das vegetarische Gericht heute war riesig, sehr schmackhaft und das zu warme Bier wurde ohne Murren gegen ein kaltes getauscht. Ganz toller Laden mit extrem nettem Personal. Ich kann es zu 150 Prozent empfehlen!

Excellent food and service. Lovely bread and olives to start. Both starters tasty. Both had mixed kebab, ridiculously big portions and superb value for money! Meat was succulent. Thanks for a wonderful evening! Highly recommended! 👍

I ate here 2 years ago. The good was Ok but the lady that served us was very rude and unpleasant. Spokit our experience and left a bad taste in my mouth. Hopefully it has improved now.

Nice food but not everything is homemade. The meet is good and some starters too (didn’t try all). The bread is fantastic! The service was kind. The very good and appreciated aspects were the quantities and the price! And also the nice view and location! We went there for lunch.

After trying a few kebab places in Deal, and them all being "meh" at best, my partner remembered she used to have Danieos when living with her parents. So we thought we would try it, and I can say they did not disappoint! The kebabs are huge and actually tasty, payment over the phone is so smooth and easy as the (what I can assume) young lady is so friendly. And I'm pretty sure delivery is only like 1.50 if you spend over a tenner. We have decided we will now be using Danieos as our regular kebab place! Well done all.

Nice Italian restaurant by the port. We tried their Filetto Di Salmone, Risotto Pollo Pesto & Asparagi and a Chicken Fillet with mushrooms. They were all good. There is a lot of seating. The staff were very friendly.

Like so many restaurants in Deal, they put their prices up by 30% and now they add a delivery charge too so in total it's a 50% increase and to top it off their food quality has down hill big time. Really disappointing. I've seen so many other pizza places around Kent that offer bigger pizzas for cheaper that have been the same quality so why can't they? I wouldn't mind so much if the food was better, but at least my money is better in my pocket than theirs.
