Mavi Ruya Turkish Bar & Grill in Sheffield

Overpriced place. Low value for money. Felt like they trying to charge for the building of this fancy place, not the food.

My favourite restaurant Food is consistently excellent Staff are lovely

I looooove it, so delicious and authentic

Good night out, although rather loud upstairs vs downstairs. Loverly food and service.

The food portion is amazing. Worth the money along with great atmosphere

Went for 1st time recently for anniversary meal!. The good we had heard was not wrong, food was amazing and priced as expected & reasonably!. Atmosphere was great with a very busy restaurant filled woth happy diners, staff were very attentive without bothering you, so couldn't really fault it!. By far the best turkish/med style food we've had around sheffield!.

This place has gone down hill but increased the prices !! The food and service were both so below par it was unreal

Thanks Leo, good service, professional manner, and a good team work makes the good meal taste more pleasant.

First time here for my birthday..beautiful food fantastic service....we will definitely go again

Service was abysmal. Some things I can ignore for example I asked for no ice in my drink but I got ice, I asked for no salad on the food and still got salad. But the service was appalling. Me and my mum went tonight and we had a male waiter who made myself rather uncomfortable but carried on. But we asked him 4 times for the bill, he walked off every time and never came back with the bill, we was asked if we wanted desert with the menus in his hand when he came back for the 4th time which we made clear we don't wish to have desert we just want the bill so we can do. We then get approached by a women with the card machine saying I've been told you need to pay on card. But we never received the bill and just told to pay which we didn't do until we saw the bill. We asked for tips and service charge to be removed as it was horrendous and they removed tips but not service charge. We finally paid but it was our first time going but never again and won't be recommending to anyone who wishes to go. I cannot understand how they have the reviews they do. I have never been anywhere with service as poor as here. Food was okay but very bland with no flavour but the service let this place down drastically.

Been to this place so many Times! We've always loved the food, loved the service and the atmosphere….. especially when its someones birthday. So we recommended some friends and we got the birthday shoutout dance and cake. However the portions including bread and dips were minimal for 4 adults, 4 kids. They used to give you so much. Then theres the prices now which are ludacris. We were under the impression the cake was on the house as we were not asked. Nope it came at an extra cost of £9.10…. 2 rose spritzers were £25. For x 3 chicken nuggets and chips. A sharer meal a couple of beers our bill was £328 and that was after we asked them to remove the extra service charge. So if you are a regular please check the prices as we didnt because weve been so many times. They have become greedy in a time where they have competition so for that reason… we will not be returning again. I cant fault the staff or the food but they have quadrupled on price.

Great service, even when busy - good to book in advance as that's what they mainly do. Portion on certain things like rice a bit small, however.

The food was superb , so tasty and plenty of it. The staff were very attentive and our waiter made us feel welcome and looked after ☺️ the restaurant decor is lovely, I almost forgot I was in Sheffield!

We've been here a few times and the sharing platter is perfect for groups. Really good food and service 👌

Highly recommend, extremely good and the best in its class for Turkish food in Sheffield. Very freshly prepared and can't go wrong really especially at this price point.

1st time going and won't be the last wonderful. Went with family as a belated birthday, had the platter 2, was so good can't wait too go again 😊 Went for lunch with a great friend yesterday, sat outside around back. Again great food, service, sun was shining and the cocktails were flowing 😁 will b back again soon Went yesterday with my friend again had the Mavi ruya special which was absolutely amazing can't wait to go again 😋

Came here on Tuesday... Loved the atmosphere Friendly staffs Turkish vibes Delicious food Thanks to the team and most of all the service we got from (Fatih) was perfect. Can't wait to come back again and try something different 🔥

First time we have been. We went lunchtime about 13:30. We had food off the Lunchtime menu. Very good choices in starters mains and sweets. Everything was spot on very tasty. The lady said portions were a bit smaller as being pensioners. Well we all left bloated and wouldn't have wanted anymore. My Son in Law who has hollow legs 😆 was also bloated so portions are not small.The staff were very friendly and professional. Excellent place would recommend it 💯 %

Not recommended to anyone, food quality is not the best compared with the price,,,mix grill for 1 person £33,99 not enough to feet baby absolutely ripped the customer off

Mario was our server for today and he was exceptional! He was very lovely and helpful and made our experience spectacular with his amazing service. If you go, make sure you ask for him

Absolutely fantastic evening. Everything about it was amazing. The food 1st class service was the best . Honestly, I can't rate it high enough. I can't wait to return. Fab surprise for my sons birthday too .love the music they play for celebrations 🍾

Went today a treat from my granddaughter.A very pleasant surprise, food. d'ecor, service ,second to none !. Well worth a return 👌

Really tasty food in a beautifully decorated building. Would just say it was a little loud for us. We were sat near the bar where they were making cocktails.

This restaurant has a nice ambiance to it. The decor is very nice and stylish. The staff are very friendly and happy which helps to create a pleasant event. But, beware! The food is at best average! And the prices all round are very extortionate. To rub salt into to wound, they then add a 12.5% service charge to your bill for serving you with food and drink at already over inflated prices. Sorry! Wouldn’t recommend. £290 for a family of four, then that service charge if 12.5%, REALLY!

Just back from an amazing meal. The food was delicious and the portions generous. The staff were very efficient and extremely friendly. We were given complimentary Turkish delight after the meal, which I typically don’t like, however this was so good and I could have happily eaten more. Highly recommend and will absolutely be returning.

Portions were perfect, meze dips were fab. Meat was exquisite. We will definitely be back.

Been back to this amazing restaurant again , been here for family and friends birthdays and general evening meals with friends. The quality of the food is amazing and taste out of this world. Which is made even better with the happy and relaxed atmosphere, made by the amazing staff , which are so helpful. Can't wait until my next visit

We went on a Saturday with no booking, they fit us in without issue. Seated upstairs. Very attentive staff and the food was quick. £100 inc auto 12.5% tip for a small meze, extra bread, 3 soft drinks, chips, a mixed grill and a veggie main. So a little on the pricy side but as the food and staff were nice I dont mind. I would go again.

Delicious food, Excellent Service. We went to have dinner with group of 12 peaples. Everyone Enjoyed their Food and Great atmosphere. We will be Returning. Fingers crossed 🤞

A fabulous evening! Thank you so much for your warm welcome, your delicious food and your relaxing but fun atmosphere 😀

Everything about this place was amazing and I would highly recommend for any occasion, whether it be a small gathering or an event for a large group, there are plenty of facilities on offer.

I review as a wheelie, access in the downstairs area was very good. Staff were very attentive. The food was fab and the staff were fab too. Will definitely return. Highly recommended!

Came for my birthday, the food is delicious, never tried Turkish before, way beyond the typical “kebab’ , very family friendly. The staff are very attentive & personable. Wished me happy birthday, along with restaurant participation, would 100% recommend. Well done & thankyou.

This restaurant serves amazing Turkish food, huge portions and the service was fantastic. Very authentic Turkish cuisine experience.

Had a fabulous meal last night here.. definitely a must food and atmosphere was great.. we will be returning.

Absolutely incredible place. Our family was passing through and decided to pop in for dinner at short notice. We were dressed comfortably as had a long drive so we were feeling under dressed but we still received absolutely impeccable service and made to feel very welcome. The staff were very friendly, the restaurant was warm and had a great atmosphere- each time someone ordered a desert on their birthday a song was played and everyone clapped their hands. The food was outstanding - I am not often blown away when eating out but tonight I was. The only down side is it’s 4 hours away from my home… but I am still considering a night away in future so I can eat here again. Thank you so much x

Fantastic fresh grilled options which are both healthy and tasty. The restaurant has a lovely atmosphere and great for celebrating occasions.

Good food, good prices, nice staff but very busy and big chaos.

Great NYE dinner. Very busy but didn’t impact quality in any way. Service was excellent and food was as it always is. It’s good simple quality fresh food. It seems to cater for all party sizes and everyone seemed to be having a great night. The belly dancer was a plus point and made the NYE’s visit memorable

The food lacked any semblance of flavour and the restaurant was also extremely loud and felt like a canteen, which made it difficult to hold a conversation. One of the cold starters tasted like an ashtray. All in all, a very disappointing culinary experience and overpriced food.

What a fantastic dining experience. We ate here today as a family of 5 for the first time. Very nice decor- tables which aren't squashed too closely and comfy seating. All the staff from front of house to table service were really pleasant and very efficient. The food we ate without exception was outstanding- compliments to the chefs. We will definitely be returning customers. Thank you.

It was excellent, both food and service.

The best Turkish cuisine in the UK, offering exceptional service and a welcoming, friendly staff.

Amazing restaurant! Really delicious food! One of the best Turkish restaurants I ever been in the UK. Would definitely recommend! Unforgettable atmosphere! Incredible service!

*Poor service received *Food is not all that. May look nice,but no flavour or tast. *Overpriced

Really enjoyed the time spent at this Turkish restaurant and the food was so delicious .

Booked our Christmas Party here and opted for the set Christmas Menu. What can I say. The whole experience was brilliant. All of the staff were absolutely amazing; helpful and informative. Considering the restaurant was full and we had 13 people in our party, everything ran smoothly and the food came out hot and was just so tasty. Highly recommend the Mavi Ruya Special...what a treat for the eyes and the belly! I will definitely be returning and all of my staff said the same! Well done Mavi Ruya for making our Christmas Party special.

Great Turkish food in pleasant surroundings with attentive and friendly waiting staff. Thank you

First time dining here and we’ll definitely be back. Service was second to none, food was very tasty and really generous portion sizes - thanks for a lovely evening!

I was recommended this place from a friend so I decided to book for last night as it was my birthday. On arrival we was made to feel welcome and seated straight away. The service was fantastic and was recommended to try the sharer platter for 2 people which we did. The food was amazing 👏 and would definitely be coming back soon 😋. Thanks again (for the birthday candle and song lol)

Good service, nice food, fairly priced.well worth it. Excellent dessert menu. Can't complain

Just had another meal, it was fantastic as usual, thanks again, Linda and Carl 👍👍👍

Lovely customer service. Ambience was warm and nice. Friendly staff. Food came fast after we ordered. Also, kid friendly layout

What a lovely evening we just had, the food was wonderful, the staff so friendly and professional, I loved this place and would recommend it. The vegetarian dishes were great too. Ellerine sağlık!

Nice place,the lamb was delicious

Amazing Restaurant Love The food amazing staff everyone needs to come John

Amazing food, amazing place, amazing attentive service, thank you for making me feeling so welcome! 🥰 And best Turkish tea 🫖 ofc

We'd heard reports that this place was good; it's fantastic. The whole atmosphere of the place on both floors and outside makes you feel welcome and wanted immediately you enter. The service is fast, friendly and very informative and the food is excellent. There's a great variety and you find yourself looking at all the dishes being served around you, often with envy. Great beer, I recommend the Tuborg Gold and a good choice of wines. All in all, a great dining and social experience. One tip, book well in advance. Update: went again on Saturday 16th November- again, FANTASTIC.

So busy. But we know why. Hard to beat food. Lunch menu is worth trying.

Leo was the best server ever, made my group feel comfortable and had an amazing time will definitely come again. Food was 10/10

Lovely, cozy and warm atmosphere. Excellent customer service and great food.

Amazing food, fantastic staff and an incredible atmosphere

Amazing staff, so lovely and attentive. Food is great - fresh, good quality and good value for money.

A mid week visit and the atmosphere was vibrant. The food was excellent and plentiful. The service we received was warm and friendly with a special reference for Leo who was charming and helpful. I highly recommend a visit to this restaurant but advise you book in advance as it is very busy. You won’t be disappointed.

The food and presentations are really great 😻 I liked it very much, especially Mr. DENİZ, thank you very much, his interest and care was great. The best Turkish restaurant in Shefeld

Amazing food, fantastic hospitality and very friendly staff. I have visited here with my husband on a few occasions and it is 100% fantastic each time!

My goodness what a wonderful place! I’m so sad I didn’t try it sooner!!! Firstly the warm welcome by the guy at the door who checked our reservation then the wonderful food! The platter for 2 was wonderful, the food was full of flavours and the service was impeccable! All the staff are very engaging! I would definitely recommend this place especially for special occasions as they have such as good atmosphere for celebrations ❤️

Great food, great service! Because it’s such a popular spot, it’s always packed in here therefore it is a little hard to hear the people in your own party sat right opposite you. The staff are always really welcoming and are very happy to celebrate any birthdays/occasions with you! The food, drink, and service is always on point. Beautiful Baba Ghanoush too!

Great food, outstanding service from Leo and Mary. Leo’s enthusiasm particularly wowed me and my partner.

Lovely meal and very happy atmosphere

Kuzu Beyti tastes nothing but smoke no spice or anything, Mavj Rüya special was very entertaining and delicious. Prices are too high for seemingly no reason. Return would be very unlikely.

Spot on.Group of 9 of us.No complaints from anyone. We tried the 2 platters to share between us.Plenty to go around and top quality food.

Very relaxed and friendly place. Great little find baklava was the highlight

A lovely long lunch with grate food and wine. Traditional Turkish fare. Staff were welcoming and friendly.

Went here on the spur of the moment last night. What a fantastic decision! Great atmosphere, superbly looked after by the staff from the moment of welcome till saying good-bye, and really, really nice food (and plenty of it too!). Simply wonderful.

Lovely atmosphere,very clean restaurant and staff nice and kind.We definitely recommend

All in all exceptional.. food, customer service, atmosphere. The place is family run and they do everything to make you feel comfortable and more like family within the cozy atmosphere they have created. Will definitely be returning. Thank you for your outstanding hospitality and service mavi rüya :)

Loved the food, big portions and full of flavour. Also, warm friendly service throughout & a great range of delicious mocktails if you’re alcohol free 👌🏾

It began as a charming eatery in Sheffield, known for its quality and inviting atmosphere. However, over time, I’ve noticed a decline, likely due to an increased focus on commercialism and a diminishing sense of customer care. The experience now feels rushed—you're seated, place your order, the food is served, and before you've had a chance to fully enjoy your meal, the plates are swiftly cleared, sending the clear message that it’s time to leave. Unfortunately, the personal touch and class that once made it special seem to have faded.

This was our first visit as we came from Doncaster, I can highly recommend this restaurant the food was outstanding, the best lamb chops we've ever tried, three of us went and we will return, the staff showed us around the restaurant, even took us upstairs to there other bar and seating area, I can only praise the staff for their hospitality and professionalism .

Absolutely Fabulous place, the food is divine. I’ve eaten around the world and if I could chose somewhere to eat authentic Turkish food this would be the place I would come every time. Quality deserves merit and this place doesn’t disappoint with the electric atmosphere and friendly staff. I hear they are expanding too and no doubt this will be a future franchise!!

Our second visit to Mavi Ruta and it didn't disappoint again. We shared the larger platter between 4 and it was a great feed. The meat is incredibly tasty and well cooked, with a beautiful charcoal flavour. Honestly the only thing I would change is adding a few local craft beers on tap.

Fantastic food, fantastic service.!

Very nice and professional staff, so delicious Turkish cuisine, and lovely atmosphere. Definitely recommend to anybody who enjoys property food.

Amazing service even when very busy! We managed to get a table without a booking but do recommend booking in advance because we arrived quite early and it got very busy later on. Mocktails were very tasty!

A lovely place, calming atmosphere, helpful waiters and delicious authentic food. Will 100% recommend the Belgian chocolate pudding as desert!

Peaceful atmosphere, clean, enough car park, smiley staff, I recommend to try it.

Superb food - great service - you could tell all the ingredients were really fresh - the service was prompt without being rushed - the staff were very friendly - their warm baklava dessert suggestion was spot on - really tasty and the lamb shish was excellent, every ingredient fresh and tasty - will be our first choice when we return to Sheffield next time

Great food, amazing staff and a lovely atmosphere

We visit here 2nd time. Me n my wife with our family of 4. Our son took us here for our 33 years anniversary since we first met.. The food is absolutely delicious. Lovely staff.. Will definitely go back soon.. Thank you..

Amazing place food and staff very professional will come back again xx

Great food, great atmosphere, great service. Came to celebrate family birthdays and was not disappointed. The food was plentiful, tasty and cooked to perfection. The service was friendly, the staff were helpful and polite. Would really recommend. This was a return visit and will definitely return again.

Excellent food and service. No more words

Went with family food and service was excellent. Ordered a jumbo plater and was more than enough for us. Quality was great.

Great service , food excellent plenty of choice and large portions. Watch out for service charge added automatically. But food and atmosphere was brilliant.

The staff were top class, very friendly and welcoming. Nothing was too much trouble. Aysha's team looked after our party with friendly and helpful professionalism making the whole evening a great experience.

It is very nice service and food ,the all things is so brilliant.The server (Aysha) with her team are so friendly and nice ,my family are appreciate to them all about what the celebrating that they did to us in our 42 nd engagment anniversary ..thanks and regards .

We were so impressed with this place. The staff were really helpful and knowledgeable about the dishes, giving lots of info on the restaurant itself which was interesting. The food was exquisite, really professional (Michelin Star worthy I'd say) and delivered to the table really quickly. Loads of vegetarian options with a gorgeous vegan & gluten free main which I had. Really relaxed and friendly atmosphere. Will definitely be going back!

I could not recommend this restaurant more! The great service started even before we arrived - I called earlier to ask if they had a quieter table if possible as one of my family is hard of hearing. When we arrived, the manager gave us tables to choose from. The service throughout the night was friendly and attentive, even though it was a busy Friday evening. The food was excellent - Meze platter to start with great flavours. Mains of lamb, chicken, pide and Adana - all tasted fantastic and full of flavour. The best Adana we had had in the UK! Deserts were again incredible - the warm baklava and cheesecake both tasted amazing. Portions were generous too. Wine was lovely and all for £200 for four of us. Will definitely be back here, such a lovely evening and memorable food

Good food,the waiter advised me what to have as I didn't want a plate piled with food even though it was probably the cheapest on menu,but it was delicious.
