Kibele Restaurant & Bar in City of London, Westminster

Birthday dinner with family, Shawn delivered fantastic service, knowledge, friendliness and kindness throughout the entire night! He perfectly followed allergy-based instructions and even swapped dishes when needed with no fuss! Give this man a promotion and a pay raise!

The food here is absolutely amazing and well worth the money. They don't miss out on flavour and definitely don't miss out on portion sizing. Well recommended

Really enjoyed the food and atmosphere at Kibele. Staff were super friendly and made us feel welcomed. The kunefe was definitely the highlight of the meal. Also, a special thank you to Shavkat!

We had booked dinner for friends birthday. We were lucky as we got table downstairs - usually you have to book it in advance. The entertainment comes with 4 course set menu for £69, drinks are not included. The food was amazing, really delicious, the cocktails were great and the entertainment was spot on. Everything was great and would definitely recommend this place.

Tastiest food in the Westend of London!! Every mouthful absolutely delicious 👌 Came 2 consecutive nights as it was so good. Been coming to London for over 40 years and this is the best restaurant yet!!!

Restaurant is located in a quiet spot in Marylebone with parking available nearby in the evening. We booked a table in the lounge for their ‘cabaret’ evening. I wasn’t that keen on the live band but the dancers were good and the DJ played a good selection of music. The biggest disappointment for me was the extortionate price that was not reflective of the food which was just slightly above average compared to other Turkish restaurants I have eaten in recently (Med kitchen south croydon and Bosphorus Bicester both much better food). Our waiter was amazing but I forgot to ask his name. The bill came to just under £100 per person and we did not have very much alcohol on our table.

We visited the place twice. First time after a long day , hungry and tired so we did not really care and the result accordingly. The second time we studied the menu carefully. Go for the real Turkish food not for another kebab or humus. You will be rewarded.

Nice environment but dull, boring tasting food. The Moussaka was dowsed with cheese and devoid of taste. The lamb special with plum/pear and almonds, couldn’t have been more tasteless if all these ingredients hadn’t been included. V expensive and disappointing in equal measure.

We visited this restaurant while staying nearby. It had been recommended by friends. The setting is lovely, very modern but welcoming. The staff are helpful and the food was excellent. We went with friends and shared all the dishes so we could try more of them. We had the borek pastries, garlic sausage with halloumi, hummus, zucchini fritters and calamari followed by lamb shish. All were excellent.

Excellent from start to finish. Lovely service. Lovely food. Went with my brother and sister and Turkish cousins from America. All had a good time. I have been before and sat outside this time I was inside. I will go again.

I had a great time with my family, the food is absolutely amazing!!! The staff are are very friendly, I was served by Bilal, Harun and Buru who are very friendly. The food is very well marinated and cooked, the salads and meat was absolutely perfect. I would suggest having the Mix grill and Platter which is 5 out of 5. Amazing service and Amazing people. Thank you for everything.

We are here on Tuesday evening. A lovely atmosphere The windows were always open which ‘meant was quite noisy Great menu and really love food from start to finish Staff friendly and attentively

There was about 20 of us ladies for a high school reunion dinner and every single one of us thoroughly enjoyed the night. Food was delicious, entertainment was great and customer service was brilliant. Will definitely recommend and hope to be back again!

It is with great sadness that I am writing this bad review about one of my favorite restaurants. I have been a frequent customer, and it breaks my heart to see the quality of food and hospitality deteriorating. During my recent visit with two families, we were initially refused entry despite there being empty tables. After some persuasion, we were finally allowed in but were cramped into a small space despite there being three empty tables throughout our 1.5-hour stay. The waiter was extremely rude and did not get our order right. When we asked for extra bread, she was visibly unhappy althought she should have provided us with 2 baskets as we were more than one family , also she did not provide us with the water we requested, despite having five thirsty children in our group. We had to remind her twice, and the service was incredibly slow. When the food finally arrived, we were disappointed to find that the chops were very chewy and almost impossible to cut. I had to request a replacement, which further delayed our meal. By this point, our experience had been so poor that we decided to forego dessert and leave. I am deeply disappointed with the quality of service and food we received during our visit. As a loyal customer, I expect better from a restaurant that I have previously enjoyed so much. I hope that you will take this feedback seriously and take the necessary steps to rectify these issues.

Often considered, but only visited a couple of nights ago. I/we should have gone much sooner. Fantastic service, food is amazing - the chap running the grill is a true wizard of his art - my lamb shish kebabs were amongst the best things I have ever eaten out. The hummus was similarly fantastic. The wait staff couldn't have been more helpful and the vibe/ambiance was so welcoming and pleasant. Amazing place. Amazing food. Go.

Kibele is a great place for special occasions. Not only is the location absolutely beautiful but the food is amazing, drinks are splending and service is top notch. Special thanks to Ali who is an amazing waiter and host, he made us all feel welcome...

I can't recommend this restaurant enough. The combination of amazing food, excellent service, and a welcoming ambiance made for an unforgettable birthday celebration. If you're looking for a fantastic dining experience, look no further than this restaurant and be sure to ask for the amazing...

Lovely staff, polite and helpful. Food was really good, just a little expensive for what it is. Would definitely come back.

Amazing Turkish restaurant situated nearby Great Portland St. Tube station The staff were so professional, nice and polite. Excellent value for money specially cos the food was very tasty and fresh. Highly recommended!!!

Great service from friendly staff and brilliant food too. Portions generous too and there’s also complimentary nibbles. Marked down slightly as the drinks service was slow. Apart from that they’d get 5 out of 5

I always use this restaurant for client dinners but this time took my family. The atmosphere is always lovely - intimate and special with dim lighting. Lots of great food items including vegetarian. Great service and great food.

Arrived here without a booking and we were initially given an outdoor table only to be upgraded indoors, as the evening dusk was settling perfect timing for what was to come. Myself and my colleagues orded the gian king prawns as the starters which arrived...
