Really good food, there's a nice range of authentic turkish dishes. Good portion sizes and came quickly. Staff are lovely and keep the tea coming too.

This is hands down the best Turkish food I’ve had outside of Turkey. The staff were incredibly friendly, and the service was spot on—exactly how it should be. Just a quick tip: make sure to mention if you prefer your food less spicy. We tried the Hünkar beğendi, Adana kebabı, and mantı, and everything was delicious. Highly recommended!

Extremely disappointed with my experience. The portions were shockingly small—the mains were more like starters. There was more salad than meat, and the so-called sheesh kebab consisted of tiny, lukewarm lamb pieces. We spent £70 on three small starters, two portions of chips, and drinks, which felt like a complete waste. While the food had some flavour, it certainly wasn’t enough to make up for the portion sizes and lack of warmth. I wouldn’t recommend this place and will definitely not be returning. One star for flavour, but that's all.

Lamb Shank superb, tender & falling off the bone, nice rice & bread to accompany. Interior vibe is slightly odd, and was fairly quiet for a Saturday night - not the cheapest, but the food was fab!

The menu looked great but we chose to have six small dishes, the look of the food was disappointing and got worse, the halloumi was Luke warm and unpleasant to taste, the calamari was over cooked and some pieces still cold when eating, the hummus was not home made and clearly from a supermarket although the lamb on the top was tasty, and the spicy beef sausage was unappetising to look at and over cooke, the goats cheese was barely cooked and was just placed onto a plate with a very small amount of honey over it but because the cheese was not warm enough it just sat on the top. There was very little food for £35 it was so bad we couldn’t eat it and complained something we never do. We have eaten Turkish food a lot and love it but this was so disappointing, my husband also had a bad stomach the next day and I was sick in the night after getting stomach cramps after eating just a small amount of the food.

Terrible portion sizes, so tiny compared to every other Turkish restaurant I’ve been to. When we left we had to go and collect a takeaway when we got home a hour later as it was so awful. The Menu stated salad and rice with all main meals - salad was pitiful and there was bulgar wheat instead of rice. Waiter stated this is what we call rice - yeah right of course - everyone knows what rice looks like. This is my third time at a Turkish restaurant and the other 2 were delicious but this one was truly terrible and none of us will be returning. The restaurant itself was lovely and clean with fresh flowers on each table. I searched Google for the best Turkish restaurant and have to say that Google failed on this occasion.

We stumbled accross this little Gem. Originally we went in just for a drink however the food smelt and looked amazing. The staff were friendly service was very slightly slow however it was very busy and they were rushed off their feet. Food was amazing we even ordered more mid way through our mains. Price was average 30-40£ for the 2 of us.

I’m incredibly fussy when it comes to Turkish food however this place is easily the best Turkish food I’ve ever had. It’s even more difficult as a vegetarian, however this place delivers with every dish!! We have even visited the city of capadokya and the food there didn’t compare to this restaurant.The owner of the restaurant is also really accommodating and couldn’t do enough for us.

We were visiting a watch repair hop and decided to pop in and get some lunch. Parking is a nightmare, The restaurant was empty lunchtime, the staff were very polite, the food took some time, it was nice, but small portions and the soft drinks very expensive. Would I go back?

Absolutely deserted inside. Food was bland and chewy, lamb was burned to a crisp and rice tasted like it was from a packet. The bread was nice. Sent two dishes back and was a nightmare. Manager didn’t want to come out, had to ask for him twice. After going back and forth for 5 minutes he stormed off as a toddler would and said he will pay it out of his own money (we offered to pay for what we ate and drank).

We had hummus with flat bread and honey goats cheese for starters and the mixed kebab plate for the main - which we shared. The portions were good sizes, and the kebab plate came with rice and salad. The service is friendly and fast. I didn't look at the veggie options because I was having meat kebabs, but I do know they have fish and seafood if you are a pescatarian. The wine was quite expensive at £9.90 for a large glass, but there is a good selection of alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks on offer. The toilets were clean. The atmosphere is friendly and the restaurant is very clean. I would definitely visit this restaurant again!

I booked this restaurant for me and my boyfriend because I love Turkey and Turkish food. When we walked in there was a few other couples eating. We shared a starter which was delicious mushrooms and garlik in a tomatoes sauce with amazing Turkish bread we literally could not get enough wished we had orders one each. For our main we ordered the wings and lamb chops that came with rice and saled the food was all lovely down to the salad dressing was amazing. Service was impeccable could not find no faults and we will be coming back. My boyfriend is the most fussiest of eaters and he enjoyed all is food. Happy customers 😊

Absolutely disgusting food when we visited..Calamari was like eating elastic bands!! The sautéed king prawns in tomato sauce was a joke..they were ready cooked prawns in a tomato sauce that tasted of nothing..the rice they served was clearly off as soon as our dishes went served you could smell it..when this was pointed out..the "chef said we put butter in our rice your probably not use to that" The pictures that are displayed on Google and the restaurant web page together are a false representation of what the restaurant now looks like.. This restaurant is an embarrassment to authentic Turkish restaurants.

I was extremely disappointed with the service we received from the boss of this restaurant. It was our first time eating in this place, and we would never go back again. We booked a table for 10 to spend a lovely evening together with friends. We bought our own celebration cake to be cut and served after our meal. The boss himself brought out the cake to our table in an aggressive manner. He had no eye contact with anyone on the table. He literally slammed the cake on the table with the cutting knife and walked straight back into the kitchen. We all jumped as we saw him do this. His colleagues had to apologise to us saying I'm sorry about the behaviour of my boss. His manner was revolting. We decided to leave the restaurant and spend the rest of the evening in a nearby cafe.

Having lived in Turkey for many years, we had heard good things about this restaurant when we returned to Birmingham. We were not disappointed. The manager Mohammed welcomed us into his charming restaurant. There was a good selection of drinks and a picked a Turkish Yakut red, which was perfect. The food was authentically Turkish and delicious. We thought it was much better than most restaurants in Istanbul. We will be going back as often as we can now that we have found it.

I was craving Turkish food so we decided to go here for a treat and all I can say is, there was no treat involved. The food was bland, over cooked and heavily over priced. We were the only ones in the restaurant (apart from a kid on his iPad at the table who must have been the owners son) the place had a weird smell like must and it was just awkward and the food was basic in fact I’m no chef and I’ve made Turkish food at home better myself. Don’t get me wrong the food wasn’t bad but it in no way shape or form was good and certainly wasn’t worth the hefty price tag. I wouldn’t return to this restaurant . Very disappointing

My dish was prawn in a tomato sauce £20 dish. I couldn't taste a thing so asked someone else to try it just incase it was my taste buds. No one could taste any flavour to this dish. There was also £56 plate of food ordered that was meant to feed 3/4 people, more like 2 people. Restaurant was dead though, now I know why. However, the bread they served with dip was nice and tasty. Unfortunately I will not be returning here, the food us extremely overpriced and the chef should be embarrassed serving such tasteless food. An insult to traditional Turkish cuisine.

We visited after getting our engagement ring in the wonderful Jewellery Quarter. We fanicied something different and this is next to the Chamberlain Clock expected top quality Turkish food and excellent service. How wrong could we be. At 2pm on a Saturday it was pretty empty, the couple who followed us in left after only 10 minutes. The decor is old and tired and the tables are not welcoming. We asked for drinks only to be told there was no draught beer so opted for a 330ml lager at nearly £5 and a glass of wine. The wine was poor and clearly came from a bottle that had been open for a while. The menu looks good and we opted for a mixed hot starter of 3 from the hot menu. Very average, no great taste and barely enough for 2 people considering it was over £15. The bread however, was lovely. For mains we chose the minced chicken and the chicken Shish kebab. Very ordinary and I doubt the minced chicken is home made. Again very bland in flavour. The waitress was fine, nothing more. £85 for a shared starter, 2 mains, 3 x330ml beers and 1 glass of Merlot. We love to search for different foods, flavours and experiences. Sadly, this visit was not one we wish to remember.

We arrived Christmas eve, we were greeted and seated. The food was served within a reasonable time and was tasty. However, we found hair in one of our dishes and a fly in our water. When we raised the issues with the waitress, she contacted the manager who told her to take £5 of our bill. We were not happy with that and asked the waitress to contact the manager again. The chef came out and again told us that £5 will be deducted from our bill. Once again we expressed how unhappy we were. What happened next was shocking. The chef was extremely rude, told us she will pay our bill, kicked us out of the restaurant and told us not to return. We paid for our drinks and tipped the waitress as she had an ounce of some customer service. In all my life I have never been kicked out of restaurant. Based on the end result of the evening I wouldn't recommend visiting this restaurant simply because if you are unhappy with anything you will be dealt with in an unprofessional manner.

Average at best. We were a large group (25) and they clearly couldn't cope - the waitress worked her socks off though so well done to her. Looked like only one other person working - probably the chef? Starters were quite tasty, but the mains were disappointing. 4 small chunks of chicken and lamb (which were nice) accompanied by loads of red onion, shredded beetroot from a jar and shredded carrot. Also a mound of cheap rice mixed with tinned sweetcorn?!?!? Would have had 3 stars, but ridiculously overpriced for what it is.

This is not a negative review. It was my first time coming to this restaurant after it caught my eye, discovering it on Google. It didn’t disappoint really. The decor was really pretty inside. We ordered hummus for starters. That certainly didn’t disappoint! It was so so nice, especially the flat bread that came with😍! I think it was my most favourite part of my meal lol. I would of happily snacked on hummus and flat bread all night. Me and my boyfriend ordered 1 lamb and 1 chicken kebabs each, which was decent. For the price we paid which was more than £17 each, the portion size was very small and the could of done with more flavour but again, the kebabs was nice. Almost tasted quite healthy lol which was good in a way. Other than that, the Resturant is very nice. This is just feed back not a bad review and I will return again some day. Thank you very much Cappadocia Resturant

Same experience as the one star review below. No atmosphere, deserted on a Saturday night, poor food quality - dry chicken and small chewy pieces of lamb and barely a portion for one adult for double the price in competitor Turkish restaurants in Birmingham. Even food that you couldn’t go wrong with such as the olives, which were so sour that we could not eat them and the rice was so bland and flavourless. When asked for the manager to provide some feedback, we were told the manager is never on site…explains it all really. No goodwill gesture and no dessert menu except for Balaclava. A very disappointing experience. Would not recommend.

The food is mediocre at best and the price doesn't help, so it seems worse then is. Any Turkish restaurant in London is better. Nice decor and presentation doesn't make up for the taste. I really do not understand the hype. I don't normally write reviews unless I really enjoy the place but if you feel the same regards to flavour as me, try another Turkish. There was sweetcorn in the rice and no bulgar so don't know if the food here is from a different region from your standard Turkish eatery's. But that ain't usually what you get right.

I am pretty sure all the good reviews on here are fake because there is just no way anyone would give this place anything more than a 1 star. This is the worst place you could ever eat!!! The service is APPALLING!. I went here with 4 colleagues on a Friday evening. We all ordered our meals and approx. half an hour later they brought 3 plates of food out for my colleagues and the waitress goes to me, "what did you order again?". I told her what I had ordered and it turns out she had forgotten to put the order through so they had not made my food!!!! The chef then comes out and asked me to choose something as on the menu as what I had originally ordered would take too long to cook. I then chose something he he picked (was the quickest to cook, took about 7 mins). never tasted anything so bland, could have done better job at cooking myself!!!. That's not even the worst part. The still charged me for that horrendous meal!!! I think its safe to say I will never set foot in this place again. And I will be telling everyone I know to avoid!!!!

If I could leave 0 I would. One of the worst experiences I’ve had at a restaurant. We told them on the phone we were fasting and would want to eat at 8.30 and left ample time to order. The waitresses came over four times unnecessarily to verify our order and then the last time decided to rewrite the entire thing. The food took over an hour and was missing a meal. When I went to ask if there was a manger about the girl didn’t even get up from her seat carried on scrolling on her phone and said there’s no one here for you to tell. Eventually the chef came out and decided to start shouting at us because I said we are leaving and going elsewhere. The rudeness of the staff and the complete inaccuracy of the pictures of the food and what is actually being sold is ridiculous. Don’t bother wasting your money to come here!! Pisspoor service and horrible nasty and inattentive toward the customers both from waitresses and chef.

I recommended the restaurant as had been here a few times a few years ago and highly rated it Today in April I sit here and tell you : - Xmas decs still up - Beyti missing from my dinner - Partners dinner looked and tasted like it was covered in cream of tomatoe soup - waitress didn’t want to be here ; she is sat down with her chin in her hand looking m wistfully out of the window - didn’t have two of the wines on the wine list - no check back to the table - other tables dirty - wallpaper pictures dirty - mismatched chairs - complimentary entre of lavash bread turned up one minute before mains - almost felt like it was forgotten Really disappointed and won’t be coming back

We ate here pre-pandemic and were impressed enough to come back with a friend who we were introducing to Turkish cuisine. Unfortunately the occasion was disappointing in almost every way. The two young waitresses lacked the confidence to make us feel comfortable, and hadn't even been trained in serving raki. The standard of food was OK for a takeaway, but we expect more from a restaurant. Very sad to see, but we won't be back.

We visited Cappadocia three years ago and enjoyed it so much and wanted to go back. We went there again last night, and we couldn't believe how the restaurant changed for the worse. The food was hardly mediocre. Tasteless, not cooked well, and the wating staff had no idea about what they were serving. We ordered hot and cold mezes to share. The sucuk were dried out, the sigara boregi were tasteless, the vine leave stuffing were the worst I ever had, the rice inside them was hard like stone. The lamb shish was tender but again tasteless, the rice served with the meat was bland. But most importantly, we ordered Yeni Raki by double serving, the raki was served OK, my husband asked where the water was and the waitress said you didn’t order water. She then served water with lemon slices. If you know about raki, that is a no no. Clearly the waitresses had no clue about how to serve raki at a Turkish restaurant!!! Not going back and not recommending it to anyone. Sorry to see the decline. Two stars for the sake of the first visit.

I am not sure if the good reviews are genuine to be honest! I usually don't leave one star review but with this place unfortunately I have to. when you go in the atmosphere is not really welcoming. (however the waitress was nice) but the owner (I believe) was so unfriendly even though he was trying but he maid the atmosphere so uncomfortable. while ordering the food the guy was so unhappy as one of our friends was only ordering a few starter as she was pregnant and couldn't eat much and also any meat. we asked regarding the yogurt drink and if they serve it with mint, again he was so defensive and upset why we did ask such question and mentioned a few time and Turkish people never put mint in this drink! (so what, can anyone else not do that? is it against the humanity? ) when the food arrived, it tasted worse than the street food with the price of high quality restaurant, you could smell and taste the excessive fat that had used to make the food look good!! while eating we were constantly were watched and observed! the environment was enjoyable at all and we didn't even wait any longer just to leave and skipped the dessert part. Definitely would not recommend the place as there are so many much much better restaurant in Birmingham which you can enjoy your food and time.

Very clean restaurant with a great vibe and decor inside. We went around 3pm for a afternoon early dinner and the food was fantastic. Staff are very attentive and polite. We had 2 young women that was serving us on the day, I presume it was the daughters of the owner, they did a really good job. Portion sizes are decent and the food quality was 10/10. Not bad prices either. Overall good experience. Would come here again. Thank you.

Food is delicious particularly the starters, we enjoyed a night out in the day with a night lunch. Could do with a bit more atmospheric lighting though to make more inviting

Food was OK. Shop was cold, empty and a bit lifeless. Staff were very forgetful. Well overpriced. This could be a 5 star restaurant but you get out what you put in!

Amazing food! The bread and sauces are also very flavourful and ambiance is definitely Cappadocia style! Will definitely come back and recommend

A lovely resturant, friendly helpful staff. Decor was really nice & resturant nice and clean. We ordered mezze & mains and it was amazing food, the bread was so good. Meat was succulent and cooked to perfection. I give Cappadocia 5 stars & will return in the future, it's one of the best Turkish restaurants we've eaten in. Thank you for your hospitality.

Very much enjoyed our meal. The cold starters were tasty and fresh. From the mains the Lamb Shish was very tender and perfectly spiced. The baklava was ok, but overpriced for its quality. Our waitress was attentive and friendly. What dissappointed us was that we...

We booked a table for 2 people for Friday 3rd December for the first time. On entering the restaurant it seemed quite cold & the lights very bright, although half of the bulbs were missing from the 2 large chandeliers. We should have realised when...

Cappadocia were fantastic from start to finish! We booked a table for 15 with short notice for a gender reveal. The food was delicious and everything came out as ordered (can be difficult with large groups). Definitely recommended - friendly staff and yummy meat!

Night out with friends - Birmingham was very busy and we found this little gem! Food was amazing, we all had different dishes. The food and drinks were good value for money.

I visited the restaurant on Saturday night, just 4 table were occupied at 8pm. We ordered a glass of Sauvignon blanc that was foamy, the meza platter that was not a good value for money as it was supposed to be for 2 people but...

Food is lovely, the closest to authentic Turkish found so far in Birmingham and given that we’ve come from “little turkey” in London, that’s high praise! I personally would give the belly dancer a miss but this depends on if it’s the same person each week. Owner is very friendly and makes you feel very welcome!

My family and I had a wonderful evening at Byzantinium. The food, atmosphere, decor and waiters were great. Special thanks to the hospitality and kindness to the owner who made our evening 😊❤️

Yeah, no. I know Spanish food and tapas, and this was just disappointing. We were a party of six and we ordered two tapas each to share, so we tried a fair amount of the menu. Most of the food was average, while some items were just bad - particularly the albondigas, tomato montadito and the gambas. The only decent dishes were the buñuelos and the pork montadito. I left hungry but not keen to order anything else. Really overpriced for the quality of the food as well.
