In response to my previous review, no I did not try to hide chicken bones! I moved the bones to the plate to show the server what we ate! I also put the burnt skin back on top of the chicken bones to show her how it was, so stop making up stories. There were 4 bones on his plate and 2 on mine (3 chicken wings, 2 ribs and 2 chops) that's all we are and everything else was still on the platter I didn't want to keep eating burnt food. I don't deny what was eaten, it was burnt while eating so my mood was off! Yes people can keep trying parts of the food to check things are okay overall, when we realised it was bad we complained. I asked for what was remaining on the platter to be made again not for more ribs and chops so get your facts right! Again I said can you make this again, pointing to the plate that still had all of the lamb donner, chicken shish, a chicken wing, a lamb rib and some other meats on top of rice, that doesn't mean I want you to replace what was already eaten, it means I don't want to be forced to continue eating burnt food. You clearly misunderstood the request and are making baseless accusations! I swore just before leaving after the owner was really rude multiple times, prior to that i was polite, I swore in the sentence not at her directly so there's another lie on your part! Check the sound of your cctv and you'll hear me tell my husband twice that I can't eat anymore because it tastes really burnt and passed it to him. He ate it and said its burnt too so we decided to complain. The fact you didn't want to taste the burnt food yourself says a lot. Instead of attacking customers and making accusations, be kind and understanding. The way you handle complaints is terrible and you're making yourself look worse with your response on Google. You like to believe your food is cooked to precision every single time but your chef can make mistakes, your chef is not god he is human! I've read all your other reviews now all complaining about the attitude of the manager/ owner, we are not the only customers she has been rude and abrupt with.

We ordered the lava special for 2 which is around £75 for barely anything, when it arrived most of the food was burnt to a crisp! We tried to taste if it's just a chargrill flavour but it was really bad, I kept having to spit out burnt chunks so we stopped while the platter was still full and asked for it to be remade. The server was kind and said she will see what they can do and will ask the manager but the manager rudely came over and said there's nothing wrong with it and how its just the lighting amongst ridiculous comments as if we were complaining for no reason and just causing trouble. I told her its not about hownit looks, it about the taste and texture andtold her to try the food to see its burnt and she said no because she eats it everyday; thats not how cooking works lady, just because you have it daily doesnt mean it can never be burnt, today it was burnt! She got really angry when I mentioned how when the place was called Istanbul they never served burnt meat, bare in mind at that time I thought it was just a name change but her rude response made it clear the owners are different now. When my husband asked if she's the manager she responded rudely again so I lost my composure and couldnt stay calm by that point. Her attitude was so disgusting so we left. This is how you lose customers! If they remade it, I would have paid full price, service charge and tipped for good service, but they lost all of that because of the managers rude attitude. The only good part was the friendly belly dancer who came over for a little dance and chat, I didn't interact much because I was in a bad mood, she asked how the food is and I thought I can't really be complaining to a belly dancer so we waited for her to move on to another section before calling the server over. The manager should learn customer service skills from the dancer and the servers.

This was my second time this year celebrating special occasions in this restaurant and they did not disappoint us. This time was my son's birthday. We ordered two Lava Family Special Pack for a group of 11 people. It came with cold starters of different dips which came with a delicious bread. The food was delicious, well seasoned and it was more than enough for all of us. We brought our own cake and they provided the candles and they also played a special Soca song that we requested to celebrate the occasion. The atmosphere was really pleasant with beautiful background music which we enjoyed very much as it was a Sunday night. Overall excellent service and food.

This restaurant is under new owners and i can honestly say myself and my family had the worst experience last night whilst out for a meal for my Mums birthday. Firstly they sat us right outside the toilets, you can only imagine the wift that passed everytime someone opened the door. We complained about this and was told as we booked a table for 10 this was the only place they could seat us, really gross and quiet surprised this was even a seating area, right outside the toilet 'GROSS' not to mention the area they had placed us was blocking the fire exit therefore im certain this shouldnt have been a seating area for guest. Secondly the cocktails were very watered down, i was a regular when this restaurant was Istanbul and the cocktails were 10/10, very sweet and strong. Thirdly the food was of very low standards, something was wrong or missing from almost everyones meal. Not to mention the food was not brought out all together, between the first person recieving there food and the last person must of been 45 min gap. Appaling. My sister ordered Mix Kebab 3 and they gave her mixed Kebab 4 and said they would bring her out a few more bits that was part of the meal on a seperate plate lol. We complained to the manager who was very abrupt, rude and not helpful. However the kind waiter who served us aplogised for our awful experience and waived the service charge off the bill. Also mentioned that many people had complaints that night about the food and service so we wasnt the only ones. I would 100% NOT recommend this Lava lounge. Bring back Istanbul and its owners, staff, and chef then i will be back.

Group celebration, staff was well attentive, the food was delicious, well seasoned, tasty and fresh. We ordered the Istanbul Family Special pack with the cold starter, which was an excellent size for my family sharing. Also, the individual portion is a good size plate of food. It was my family first time visiting and definitely it wouldn't be their last. We recommend this restaurant for the food, ambience and entertainment.

Went as a 30 person Christmas party. Dont believe they had the right amount of staff to cater to a party of people that large and also their normal patrons. The wait times between the food was very long (I understand that we were a big group but it goes back to I don't think they had the capacity to cater to that many people which is fine, just don't book big parties). When the food came, the protons were quite good but the flavours weren't that great. Overly salty for most dishes. We were sat in the back area which is basically outside but covered, don't think the heaters were enough as it was freezing and multiple of us had coats on for the majority of the night. When it came to pay, that was a bit of a mess as people had bought drinks and the staff weren't really keeping track of everything. Not good overall.

Horrible service, would not recommend coming here with a big group. Had a reservation for 30 people and was welcomed in a very rushed manner, one waitress is particular - who also happened to be the manager, was rushing us to order drinks, talking to us very unprofessionally and talked to us in a childish manner and said “here’s your bill, work it out yourselves”. Of course that’s expected with a big group, but the need to announce it not once but twice - is very disrespectful. A pitcher of tap water was spilt all over the table and wet out items on the floor, which wasn’t mopped up after either. While the food is great - service is so un accommodating and not worth a return to this place.

Visité el restaurante el 29 de junio con algunos amigos para cenar. La comida era deliciosa, y los cócteles eran geniales también. Nos encantó la bailarina del vientre. Mientras estaba en el restaurante me enfermé - esto no se debió a nada que había comido o bebido. El personal era increíble, después de darse cuenta de que no estaba bien, realmente me cuidaron, me dieron un poco de agua, se sentaron conmigo, me ofrecieron una ambulancia, e incluso revisaron mi presión arterial! Eran brillantes. Gracias a todo el personal que me atendió estoy muy agradecido.

Fui a este restaurante el viernes por la noche con otros 2. El aparcamiento estaba lleno, y después de haber leído acerca de la multa de £ 60 si vamos sobre el aparcamiento gratuito de 2 horas al otro lado de la carretera, optamos por aparcamiento en la calle cercana en su lugar. Fácil de encontrar. Llegamos un poco tarde (tráfico alrededor de Colliers Wood) y estábamos sentados a su llegada. No hay problemas. Pedimos entrantes compartidos para 2 , y comida especial Estambul para 2 también. La comida llegó en 30 minutos y nos quedamos gratamente sorprendidos. ¡Las porciones eran enormes! No estábamos allí para la bailarina del vientre, pero de todos modos llegó a las 9 . 10 pm. La música se aceleró y se puso un poco fuerte, pero a otros parecía gustarles la experiencia. Fue rechazado después de su aparición de 15 a 20 minutos. El servicio era de primera. Realmente no puedo quejarme de nada. Justo antes de irnos, fuimos a “echar un vistazo” a la habitación / área de shisha y fuimos recibidos por el propietario del restaurante que era simplemente encantador - muy educado, amable y hablador. Tenemos la intención de volver a este encantador restaurante. No puedo creer que casi no fui debido a todas las críticas negativas!

I recently had the pleasure of dining at an excellent Turkish restaurant in London, located close to Wimbledon. The meat served is simply extraordinary, cooked to perfection and full of flavour. Each kebab, adana or shish kebab dish is prepared with fresh and authentic ingredients, bringing the traditional flavors of Turkish cuisine to the table impeccably. The takeaway service is equally impressive. Orders are prepared quickly and packaged with care, ensuring your food arrives hot and well presented. The quality of takeaway food is never compromised, maintaining the same high standards as in-room service. The staff is courteous and professional, always ready to satisfy customers' needs. The combination of great meat, excellent service and an effective takeaway option makes this Turkish restaurant a first-class choice for anyone wanting to enjoy authentic Turkish flavors in London, especially in the area near Wimbledon.

We were a party of 13 and we're not offered drinks on arrival so after 20 minutes we had to ask waiter. We ordered starters and mains together and after 30 mins the starters arrived. The food was ok but could have been better. We then waited approximately 2 hours for our mains and kept asking when we would get them and they kept saying that they were on the way. When the food eventually arrived, it was dumped on the table and they didn't tell us what they were so we had to sort that out for ourselves. Everybody's food was wrong, half the table had no cutlery and the sauces we asked for never appeared. Nobody asked if our food was ok as I think they were scared what the answer would be. No one enjoyed the meal as you could tell by how much food went back to the kitchen. 1 of our party asked for a glass of water 3 times over the space of 1 hour 30 minutes and this didn't arrive until just before we were leaving. The bad service I could have dealt with but bad food in a restaurant is just not acceptable. (The lamb tasted like cardboard). We were there for my husbands and my birthday family meal and all I can say is that our birthdays were spoilt and we will never get that back. When we complained they did knock some money off the bill and they brought up a small cake and a bottle of prosecco and 2 glasses. (There were 13 people in our party) Were we supposed to share it between all of us?. We were recommended this restaurant and needless to say neither my husband or I or any of our party will ever return. It is the only time I have left a restaurant feeling hungry. If you are thinking of booking a table for anything over 4 people don't bother, as the staff don't seem able to cope with bigger parties. It was such a shame as we had been looking forward to celebrating our birthdays with our family at a restaurant we had not been to before, but the night was ruined and we will never get that back.

We celebrated my 50th birthday and booked the place at Colliers Wood branch on March 15, 2024 which is a Friday. There is belly dancing during Fridays and Saturdays. We have ordered a lot of the family platter menu whilst waiting for the highlight of the evening which is belly dancing which was scheduled at 9:30pm when we asked one of servers. Then 9:30pm came, no sign of a belly dancer; we asked another server and he said that she’s not coming at all. When we asked another server, he was saying maybe around 15mins wait…when we asked the manager - he’s now saying that the belly dancer called in sick and doesn’t even know the reason as to why dhe was sick. Our group of 16 people has waited for ages to be disappointed in the end. Very poor service. No consistency even with simple communication issue.

Arrived at this place, near the station, to meet with some friends. I needed badly to relieve my bladder, and I ran into the toilet (the entrance was so dark and with little light, and the wall and everything were BLACK).. nearly smashed into a wall..I still have my dark glasses from outside.. lol.. after I found the door.. the toilet (male at least, haven't ventured in the girls one...) is BLACK with everything BLACK with a sink that will find itself at ease in a 70's acid ridded disk club...interesting. The seat was broken and the general feeling was of...untidiness. got out and chatted friends until the food got cold (my bad). The doner was tasty. The place is..meh.. nothing particularly wow (apart the loo.. if you come here I suggest it to be your first stop) .. another complaint is that I asked for mint leaves tea (that should be pretty standard in these type of restaurants). I got a tea pot with hot water and some scattered mint leaves in. And a very narrow glass to drink it. Problem was that if you put the leaves and do not put a.. filter or something, they will clog the exit of the teapot.. and the tea will go everywhere (and that's EXACTLY what happened!!). Apart that.. prices are little high end for the did abs the vibe of the place. But still can try it if you are in the area and you like psychedelic toilets!!!

We went to have fun with my friends, but the music was so loud that we could neither have fun nor hear each other. Even though we said this, we were ignored. Since it was a Turkish restaurant, we requested Turkish songs, but our requests were definitely not taken seriously. It is no longer a place I would recommend and come to again because the most important thing is customer satisfaction 👎🏽👎🏽

We went for dinner with our friends and frankly we were not very satisfied. First of all, the music played in the venue has nothing to do with the venue. I understand that many foreigners go there other than Turks, but it is a Turkish restaurant and it would be more appropriate for Turkish music to be played. Almost no Turkish songs were played. We were only able to open a song upon request, but frankly, as a Turk who goes to a Turkish restaurant, I was very disturbed by this, after all, I did not go there as an Arab or an Arab. I don't go there to listen to Hindi music. Another complaint I have is that the music is quite loud. It was disturbingly loud and it was impossible for us to hear each other, and when we expressed our discomfort to one of the waiters, he told us that he would not turn down the music and I find this disrespectful, after all, customer satisfaction should come first. As for the food, the dessert we ordered was kunefe and it took longer to arrive than it should have, but the dessert was cold and the cheese inside was frozen. Frankly, as a Turk living abroad, it was disappointing to experience such a "Turkish" restaurant.

This is the restaurant we have been going to many times.My complaint stems from the music being played. It's played so loudly that we can't even hear our own voices at the table. This was very disturbing. It is a Turkish restaurant but the music playing is irrelevant and very loud. The same playlist keeps coming back. I want this issue to be given a little more attention. We ordered kunefe for dessert. The cheese inside came frozen.

TOP QUALITY FOOD EXCELLENT QUALITY. YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED. I’m typing in CAPITALS because I’m genuinely impressed. I never expected this level of quality- I simply went to have a chilled evening and it was great. Belly dancer was entertaining and interactive! Top tier service. You will not be disappointed. I RECOMMEND THE LAMB CHOPS!! CLEAN JUICY AND EXTREMELY GENEROUS PORTIONS!

Very pleasant meal. Reasonably priced. Good turkish food. It was my friends birthday. Wish I'd known that they celebrate people's birthdays.

We always enjoy a good dinner in this lovely restaurant. My partner and I do not eat a lot in one sitting, and we always opt to go for one main course to share with other bits on the side to keep it interesting, also because they have big portion sizes too! Fridays and Saturdays are fun as they have a belly dancer in the evening time, plus you are able to enjoy a shisha as well. Book a table on weekends, as is it very likely you won't get one as a walk-in customer.

When I made the order, I asked the dessert to be served with my coffee. Everything was served in a very weird order. They brought my coffee with my cold starter. The cold starter was seved without the bread for several minutes. The coffee and kunefe were with notes for no sugar and ice cream on the kunefe. They serve me sweet coffee and kunefe with no ice cream it was also not freshly made. The waiter didn't bother coming to our table to check if things were well. Waited for him to come around to ask for the bill. However, my husband had to find him because it was already 20 min. We asked to take the bread, takeaway. The waiter brought some boxes and put them on the table and asked to sort them ourself. Basic ethics were missing. We will not visit this place anymore.

Hemos estado yendo al Faro durante los últimos 25 años y estamos tan tristes de que vaya a cerrar. Reservamos para su última semana de servicio y el restaurante estaba pesado. El menú innovador muestra platos británicos y europeos y nuestra comida de 3 platos fue como siempre muy bien presentado y delicioso. El servicio fue excelente y el personal, incluido el chef, estaba charlando con los clientes con un tinte de tristeza por el cierre. ¡Incluso vimos a una dama irse llorando! Es una pena perder un restaurante independiente de calidad cuando Wimbledon está tan sobresaturado de restaurantes y cadenas de baja calidad. Gracias a todo el personal por algunas comidas maravillosas a lo largo de los años, deseándole todo lo mejor para el futuro.

Amazing kebab! Food was packed separately but that meant it stayed hot and the salad stayed cold! Lamb doner was so juicy and tasty! - just moved to the area and this was our first time trying! Will definitely be back!

Were able to alter ingredients on the dish to meet my dietary requirements, which not every restaurant is willing to. Food was delicious, lovely presentation, really friendly stuff and just a very pleasant atmosphere.
