Dunya Restaurant Turkish Cuisine in Plymouth

Chicken shish was half raw and they didn’t offer new portion, they put meat from my plate back to grill for another few minutes. No sorry. Salad not like from Turkish restaurant. Bread like from the supermarket and they are charging for this few pieces almost 5 pounds. Ridiculous

Great restaurant, service and food. Really enjoyable and will definitely be back! Thank you!

Delicious food, impeccable service and great atmosphere. Dunya were fantastic in accommodating our group at short notice. The extensive menu has something for everyone with good portions sizes. The only difficulty was choosing what to eat!

Came here, for my wife's birthday treat, didn't book, but was a great meal, reasonably priced, quick service not rushed, really tasty food, can't wait to go again

We aren't from Plymouth but if I were, I would be a frequent visitor of this fantastic restaurant. This is probably the best Turkisk restaurant I've ever been to and I've been to Turkey a few times. The food was delicious and the hosts were friendly and provided excellent service. We were eating out for anniversary, so thank you for a lovely dining experience. Top tip - try the marinated lamb chops

Top quality food and service. The quantity and quality of food is sensational.

I had my second visit to Dunya this week and it was equally amazing as my first visit . The food is authentic, tasty and beautifully presented and the Service is faultless. What is not to love! Portions are plentiful and there are some fabulous special touches. Im not revealing them.... go and find out for yourself! Couples or a group of friends, the vibe is great and you will have the best time.

Came here in a hurry before a show in pavilion. Food was fantastic tasting. Service was quick and efficient. Thanks for a great experience

Very rude!! Refused a pregnant lady to use the toilet and very bad manners.wont be going there again!

Well worth the money plenty of good very tasty

Nice afternoon meal, food was faultless, cheerful staff, an all round enjoyable experience.

Our recent experience at Dunya was disappointing due to the poor service we received. The server barely acknowledged us for the first 5 minutes of our wait. The staff were very unprofessional and unfriendly. Their attitude and facial expressions was (disgusting) moreover speaking their language after we asked for a wrong drink was very uncomfortable. The food itself was good, but the poor service significantly detracted from the overall experience. We hope that the restaurant will take these concerns into account and work to improve its service. The restaurant could benefit from having more staff trained on customer service.Paying the bill was also a drama, nevertheless this is probably not entirely the fault of the restaurant.

First time in my life I was almost kicked out by staff who have nothing in common in terms of knowledge and restaurant culture. I have been working as a hotel manager for 36 years and I visit this restaurant because the cuisine is close to my culture and religion, but unfortunately I can only say may Allah help the owners.

Danya Turkish Restaurant – A Star Before the Show Step into Danya and you’re instantly transported from Plymouth to the heart of Istanbul. Perfectly placed just steps from the Grand Theatre, it’s as if the evening’s performance begins here. The menu is a feast worthy of a sultan – bursting with authentic Turkish and Middle Eastern flavours. I tried the lunch special: two generous courses for just £12.50 – an absolute delight and amazing value. The falafel was golden, crisp, and aromatic; the lamb kofta so tender it practically performed a disappearing act on the tongue. And the Turkish white wine? A crisp, elegant encore in a glass. With warm hospitality, rich flavours, and a setting that feels just a little bit magical, Danya sets the stage for a perfect matinee performance of Kinky Boots The Musical

It’s very clear how much attention has been paid to the smallest details. The reception was elegant and polite, the staff were very professional and their welcoming smiles made a great impression, and the food tasted truly amazing.

It serves very delicious food. I highly recommend trying it. The way it is served is wonderful and gives a wonderful view to start eating. The staff are nice and joking. It is a wonderful restaurant.keep up 🔥

What a fantastic meal in beautiful surroundings and great service

Amazing food, felt very authentic. Some of the best Turkish food I have ate.

Lovely staff, delicious food and desserts. Great selection of drinks. Highly recommend.

Will recommend! Good, clean environment and friendly waiter.

Great food, great service. Have been before and will definitely go again.

Another lovely dinner at Dunya. Everytime I have been here, it has been consistently good. Well worth a visit.

this is the cleanest restaurant i’ve ever been in, all the staff are constantly wiping and cleaning everything, the toilets were immaculate. the starters were amazing and the mains were good too. all the staff are friendly and knowledgeable, really enjoyed it here 😁😁

Went for lunch today but this is my favourite and only the Turkish restaurant in Plymouth food was freshly cooked and tasted so good, just like living in Turkey again. I also received amazing service by lovely Young lady and friendly Lunch time specials reasonable prices and fab place This is better than turkish restaurant I went to in London so much better 100% recommended 👌

Everything was perfect the food and the service, especially Shaima she’s so kind

I recently had the pleasure of dining at this amazing restaurant, and I have to say, it was an unforgettable experience! From the moment I walked in, the service was exceptional. A special shoutout to Shaimaa, who was incredibly warm, helpful, and attentive throughout our meal. She truly made the experience even more enjoyable. The food was absolutely delicious every dish was cooked to perfection and bursting with flavor. I could tell the chefs put a lot of care into their creations. Overall, I loved every moment and will definitely be coming back. Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for great food and fantastic service!

The food was so good. We were served by Shaimaa; she was so kind and lovely, with a stunning smile. Since we were fasting, we received some starters and dessert on the house, which I think is very generous of them. The atmosphere was nice and welcoming. I would definitely recommend it.👌🏻

The food was absolutely delicious, full of flavor, and beautifully presented. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, making the whole experience even better. A special shoutout to Shaimaa, who was so lovely and attentive—she made our visit extra special. We’ll definitely be coming back!

I absolutely loved my experience in Dunya. The atmosphere, the music, the service, the food were amazing! Truly, the best restaurant in Plymouth. We had Lamb chops and chicken breast, the portions were big and the food was delicious! We had Kunefe for desert, it was something we never tried before and it was very sweet and delicious! The staff were really friendly, welcoming and helpful. Will definitely come back!

I had Alinazik with aubergine and lamb meat. Food was very fatty, lamb was not very well marinated and it had very intense lamb flavour.

Food was fantastic, staff were extremely helpful. Would highly recommend it.

Amazing food. Amazing service. Amazing atmosphere. Highly recommend

A fine venue with great staff, fabulous Turkish food in a lovely clean environment. Highly recommended!

Fabulous food outstanding service Could not fault anything

I booked a table for 10 last Friday. The ambiance was great as soon as we walked in. The service and food were excellent. I would like to thank the staff for making our evening special. Will definitely return

I had my birthday dinner here, I was treated sooo well by the staffs. They made me so happy. Played a birthday song for me and really made the night special. They treated i and my friends with somuch love and respect. All staffs were so warm and welcoming. They all had a huge smile on their faces and made light jokes and compliments to make us feel comfortable. The food was soooo good, the beef and lamb well cooked and spiced! This is one of the best meal I have had yet. It reminded me somuch of home. The platter for four people should actually be for 10 persons as it was sooo huge that we couldn’t easily finish it even when we were 7 persons. The cocktails are soooo good, actually one of the best I have had in Plymouth. Their food prices was also quite affordable. If you are looking for a place closer to home. Then Dunya should be your pick!! I rate and recommend this restaurant a 1,000 time. Thank you somuch Dunya for making my 30th birthday the best!!!

I would like to say best restaurant in Plymouth I have recommend everyone try to DUNYA restaurant

If you are in Plymouth, be sure to visit this restaurant - 100% satisfaction

10/10. Great food and friendly service. Can't fault it. ❤️🎈

Upon arrival, we were warmly welcomed by a courteous young lady who graciously offered us a choice of seating. The restaurant exuded a pleasant ambiance, with a few diners already enjoying their meals, accompanied by soothing Turkish music playing in the background. The team demonstrated exceptional efficiency and professionalism throughout our visit. For those who appreciate high-quality meat dishes, this restaurant is an excellent choice. The dish in the accompanying image speaks for itself beautifully presented and absolutely delicious. I would like to offer a suggestion for the management’s consideration: it may be beneficial for staff members to wear disposable gloves when clearing tables after use to uphold the highest hygiene standards. This is purely a recommendation and not a criticism. Overall, I had a fantastic experience and genuinely look forward to returning. A heartfelt thank you to Dunya Restaurant and its dedicated staff for their outstanding service.

Great food but not 10/10 to be honest, the price and quality might not be matched. For example, we ordered some bread and that was £4.60 we could get 5-6 breads to that price. To make your costumers happy either the bread should be free or let’s say £0.50.

Good food and price, lamb shish kebab was tasty and the meat very lean and good quality. Comfortable place to sit in and relax with various sized sitting areas (alone, 2 persons or more)

The food was great and service also. The atmosphere was OK but the price not so much. 22 quid a plate for most items for what amounts to pretty basic grub. Nothing bad about the quality but just thought the price was a bit high for what was served. It'll probably be a while before I revisit

I am here a regular visitor and no doubt one of the best restaurants in Plymouth 10 out of 10

Excellent pre Theatre meal with great service.

Went here for New Years Eve food was fantastic, service was excellent, staff were very friendly. Well done to them for a Excellent service. Very clean all round. Big thank you!

Excellent meal and exceptional service. We got stuck in rush hour traffic making us 25 minutes late for our reservation, they held the table and managed to still get us fed in time for the Theatre. We will definitely be back.

Really nice food , very professional service . Highly recommend

Visited here several times, the food is always amazing I've enjoyed getting various dishes ofter with advice from the staff, highly recommend a visit.

After walking by this place many times, we decided to go there on a Saturday evening for dinner. The greeting was friendly and they found us a table. The place was busy but order was taken quickly and the food arrived quickly. We were really disappointed with the awful food and found it to be amongst the worst we've ever had. The hummus was bland and didn't taste like it was home made, the halloumi and peppers were grilled too little which left the peppers raw and the halloumi cold and uncooked. The main mixed grill dish had lamb ribs with very little meat, chicken wings undercooked, two cubes of chicken shish and a lamb kofte that was not great. The chips tasted like they were cooked in old oil and the rice was too salty. For two drinks, one starter each, one main each reached a price tag of nearly £90. I wouldn't eat here again, the food really was awful. Having lived in Azerbaijan and Turkey and eaten in authentic Turkish restaurants many many times, I can honestly say that this isn't a patch on the real thing. Expensive and very much over rated.

We had a lovely meal for NYE, the food was excellent, the staff were very polite & the service was great, we will definitely be back again 😋.

Me, My family and friends went there last night and the food was amazing. The staff was friendly and made you feel welcome. We are definitely going again.😊

Today was my sister's birthday and everything was ready and the waiters were very nice and the food is the same every time very delicious thank you Dunya . 🫶🏻🥹

Delicious, great food and service.

Came for a birthday meal and Dillan was a wonderful host. Made the meal special for our party and will definitely be coming back!

Dillin was an amazing host and made sure the everyone came out in high standards and in time. Enjoyed it

Good food, clean and pleasant good service, not cheap.

The food is delicious and very tasty, with so many choices, great service and the staff is incredibly polite and always there for you. The prices are a bit high, however, it’s worth it for the lovely atmosphere and the good vibes. Would highly recommend Dunya restaurant for family gatherings and special occasions. A wide wine and sweets selection. This modern Turkish restaurant is a great addition to Plymouth!

Excellent meal, food was perfect in every way, freshly cooked beautifully presented and very generous portions. My second time here and I will be back again.

Beautiful restaurant , great service and the best food! The family platter was the most amazing thing on the menu!!

It was amazing, food great and fantastic service

Just got home with 5 friends and an excellent meal coffee and the most fantastic staff. Friendly and welcoming smiling and nothing to much trouble. Can’t praise them enough. If you haven’t been there before give it a try you won’t be disappointed. 100% service

Really excellent food with quick, friendly service. The only shortcoming was the limited range of soft drinks on the menu, which were almost all coke etc.

Amazing food and great service, my only qualm being that , our experience here was so rushed, we had starters and no sooner that had been taken our mains had arrived, once finished we were asked for dessert, so we asked for a little breather, not one minute later someone else asked us for our dessert options, AGAIN less than a minute after that we were asked for options, a staff member then stipulated that we didn’t have much time as the table as it was further booked!!.. we had only been in the restaurant for an hour at this point so I therefore declined any desert option as I was uncomfortably full with no “breather” between meals, it was a special occasion for us to be out and we had had no notice of timings on the booking, and for me this has ruined our experience here, not entirely sure I would return for this very reason.

Very nice clean and friendly place . The food was gorgeous 🥰

1st visit won't be the last, we had the lunch special menu, with a small choice but good variety. great food and couldn't believe how cheap for 2/3 course meal we only had 2 courses as too full even for an ice cream

I had dinner here with my sister and we had the most amazing food, wine and exemplary service. We were warmly welcomed and enjoyed our food very much. The desserts are divine, especially the pina colada ice cream, out of this world! Highly recommend Dunya and will definitely eat there again.

Excellent choices on menu. Staff very friendly & helpful. Atmosphere was excellent.

I had special offer of mixed grill kebab with kunefe a few months ago and just kunefe with Turkish tea recently. They both were delicious and tasty with a good price. Every thing was perfect in both visits and really enjoyed it. Recommended kunefe to all.

Really attentive service, excellent food some of the best Turkish food I've found in this area. Friendly staff who couldn't do enough for you. Will definitely visit again

Lovely little place but unfortunately the food lacked flavour with no taste and a bit bland.Service was good and efficent

Really good food. Great staff and reasonably priced.

The food was delicious and authentic, the atmosphere was great. The service was excellent. Highly recommend!

The staffs are friendly, the food was delicious and the atmosphere was very nice. The manager Zizo was a legend and a provided an amazing service. 100/100 recommend.

Quick lunch. Great food always.

The team at Dunya were welcoming, attentive and incredibly kind. The service was friendly and myself and my group of colleagues thoroughly enjoyed our meals. Everything came out hot, tasted amazing and there was such a variety! We were incredibly impressed with the portion sizes.

Very tasty Turkish food in a great setting and easy to reach location I'm the heart of Plymouth. The lunch menu is very good value and offers a good range for a set menu, with good vegetarian options. Service was excellent and very attentive (without being intrusive). A great choice for a special occasion or celebration.

We were hesitant about eating here due to the particularly high prices(£22.50 for a mixed shish), but thought it must be very good. Sadly not. It wasn't bad, but the 4 of us eating all felt it was quite average. The main issue being the meat wasn't well marinated, and coming from a charcoal grill didn't have any smokiness or characterful nature. Wouldn't revisit. Bit of a shame. £30 for a kebab and pint of Efes.

One of the best restaurants in Plymouth! Lovely staff and amazing food.

Good food 1st class service and not to expensive

Very scrumptious food loved the every bite of it. Little pricey but worth it. Good stuff 👏

Lunch deal such great value! Best lamb kofte I’ve had, lovely starters, freshly made baklava. Lovely!

Had the chicken shish one night and the kleftico the following night as the food was brilliant the first time around will be back again hopefully this week! 5*

Unfortunately this time we were very disappointed. The staff were unfriendly and abrupt. The food did not taste fresh the salad and rice had a weird taste the Tursu had gone off the meat was rubbery and had no flavour. Such a shame because the last time we came it was delicious.

Nice service, delicious food, friendly staff. Always happy to be here.

Fantastic food. Staff very friendly and welcoming.

They were very helpful in organising a surprise party for my friend. And as always food is amazing.

Very welcoming staff, lovely food, great experience for a birthday dinner

Amazing experience, so kind and caring, made the birthday experience wonderful we had so much fun and it was just amazing all round, the food was delicious and the atmosphere and service was amazing

Excellent food, service, and welcome. Helpful and informatics team, in relation to gluten free options. Thoroughly recommend for excellent value two course lunch menu, and extensive evening menu.

Service was brilliant, all the staff very friendly and make a real effort. The food is excellent value for money, the mixed sharing platter was especially good value although rather light on vegetables, it is more than enough for two.

Great food, great service and spotless restaurant

Top quality food, make sure you come hungry!

First time eating here and it was delicious! Generous portions, you have got to try their chili sauce. 5*

Delicious food and good portions

Working away and popped in for dinner, I have eaten A LOT of Turkish and this place is by far the best, It was so good we went 2 nights in a row! Everything was spot on, I can’t believe the flavours, we had a huge selection of different dishes and couldn’t fault one - my fellow workers also agreed was amazing. Well done guys, if I’m back in the area you are my first choice.

Everything was just great! Our family's new favourite restaurant. Thank you Dunya.

The restaurant was nicely decorated. Food was good 👍 and tasty 😋. Prices are a bit expensive. Staff was nice.

Food excellent Customer service amazing We would definitely recommend this restaurant.

They were absolutely amazing! The flavors were perfectly balanced, and the presentation was beautiful. I can't wait to come back and try more dishes. And I was really impressed with the level of service I received,Keep up the great work.
