Brought some stew here today , not nice meat had a lot of fat and gristle and not enough meat and very tactless , not worth the money tbh and the bread was dry and hard , it seemed like old bread and I dident appreciate it, won’t be going here again, poor quality food and overpriced for what you get :

Please do not rip off your customers by trying to be clever with your portions. I came for takeaway and asked for the Large Lamb Doner box. This is universally a box of lamb donner with some bread and maybe rice separate. I saw the staff have a quiet little word and team talk about how to do my order before actually making it. Maybe because it is late at a Saturday night when people are more likely to be drunk so you can take advantage and cut corners. When you are paying £14 takeaway a large lamb donner box is NOT a pile of rice with a tiny portion of lamb donner sprinkled on top of it. The amount of donner meat there in relation to all the bread and rice you gave me was a pure rip off considering the price and that I ordered a large. Treat your customers better.

Ordered lamb shish. The lamb was dry, tasteless and tough. The rice bland, the salad tasted as if it had been left out for a few hours. The double vodka was a single at best! The service mediocre but friendly. Conclusion: a takeaway at best but only if all the other restaurants are closed! - One * so could post review. PS: food critics could be coming a restaurant near you...

This restaurant has become one of my favourites, the value of food/portion size for money is amazing the meat is succulent and very fresh. Very authentic and tasty Turkish food with lots of flavour. The manager is one of kindest and thoughtful people I’ve met, so down to earth and generous with us, I had left my bag at the restaurant and he came out of the restaurant to come find us just in time before we left (it was very cold outside). I can say the food and service is amazing I highly recommend this place to everyone.

The menu offers a wide variety of traditional Turkish dishes, each prepared with the freshest ingredients and bursting with flavor. I started with the family platter, which was a delightful assortment of dips, olives, and fresh bread. Every bite was a taste of Turkish tradition.

Not such a lunchtime menu treat . Portions are half the size of mains (not that they tell you) . I rate the service I had by 2 young gals & a young man, the food however was under par, portions aside , my Adana was over cooked , looking old & tasted of salt . Had a shish which was fine . Good atmospherics inside . Over cooked salty food chef moody & unhelpful as I entered the restaurant. Would I dine there again………. just a drink , bread & dips perhaps. Which menu are you referring to, the 2ft x 1ft poster at your entrance or the in house menu given once seated? I have a picture of the poster menu “lunch” , I do not see those words there which was my first piece of Istanbul info & I note you make no reference to the “over cooked salty meat’ in your response focusing on the inedible.

Went for a weekend breakfast with all siblings and kids as a big group. Even though we didn’t book, they quickly made us a big table so everyone could sit at the same table. Breakfast was really nice and fresh. Staff were friendly. Prices were reasonable. Definitely recommended for a lovely Turkish breakfast! THERE WAS NO PARKING!

Delicious food and wonderful service. Went here with my wife and family and had an Ottoman Platter, as well as some Turkish sausages, Calamari and liver. We also had some bread, garlic sauce, chilli sauce and salad to go along with our meal. Everything we ate was delicious and at the end our waiter recommend some sweet pastries with cream. We never would have known to order these but they were also fantastic. Thank you so much for such a wonderful meal! Would 100% recommend!

The food was good for the price but not wow. The disappointment was at the end when everyone was served with sweet treat and free tea and my cousin offered to pay for the tea when she paid the bill.. and we stayed 10 mins afterwards to wait for tea and then we gave up. That was very rude especially that we asked for it and we offered to pay and the waitress said that is not needed. The bill was also about £60

Clearly a place where locals, misfits and hipsters can eat with gusto and have money left in your pocket. It’s pretty heavy on the meat front, but there is enough for the more faint hearted. Pide in numerous incarnations, kebabs so huge it comes on a tray you use to carry plates with, fish superbly grilled and salads in abundance. Superbly authentic yet modern in outlook and service.

How disappointed I am with my order, it came over an hour late, all food was cold, couldn’t eat the chips as they were cold and I paid an extra pound to get them, I understand the delivery driver was at fault because he was late but it’s up to the restaurant to deal with the driver and at least keep the food warm, I usually love this restaurant but I’m not too sure after this experience, and ironically the can of Coke was warm 😑 overall not happy on spending almost £50 on cold food

The Bottomless brunch option is really good, the best I’ve been to. £49 for unlimited food & drink. The waitress serving us was very attentive and was not slow to top up our drinks / bring new bottles of Prosecco. We were also allowed to switch drinks if we wished which was not specified on the deal. The brunch menu is diverse with lots of sweet/savoury options, the food is pretty good for bottomless brunch (£4 supplement for steak or fried chicken).
