Fuimos para el almuerzo de domingo y lo que una comida maravillosa, una comida realmente lo disfruté mucho, a pesar de que era demasiado grande para mí, pero nos prepararon, para mí para llevar a casa. La comida era muy buena relación calidad-precio y también el vino, vino turco por primera vez y fue excelente, el personal nos reunimos fue muy amable y nos dieron una buena charla sobre Estambul ya que era donde nuestro camarero y nos había estado en una anterior. Sin duda volveremos otra vez

Alrededor de 16 de nosotros fuimos a "Kaz' ya que ahora se llama. No cabe duda de que tenía una buena reputación antes de que ha cambiado. Si este es el caso, por lo menos mantener su buen nombre. Estábamos 21 fiesta de cumpleaños y fue perfecto. No sólo la tienda tarta, luz las velas y presente, pero también agregaron un par de mini romano velas y cambió la música para nosotros. El equipo no pudo haber hecho más para nosotros y fueron muy atentos durante toda la noche.

Teníamos el almuerzo de domingo en Koz ayer, 6 adultos y un niño de 3 años. Nos dio la bienvenida en la puerta y nos llevaron a nuestra mesa, bebidas calientes y pedir pan y aceitunas sirvieron, los entrantes eran excelentes y los principales cursos fueron algunos de las mejores comidas que he tenido. Se nos hizo un cambio refrescante para ver comida decente en el menú para niños y nuestra nieta había lubina que disfrutamos, el personal era muy atento withought ser demasiado dominante y después nos instalamos la factura el gerente vino a ofrecernos una bebida, gracias por usar su restaurante.

Very small starter portions, long waits between courses, ordered dessert and told 10 mins later they had run out. A very long way to go before this restaurant is up to standard.

I went to The Maywood when it first opened, and wasn't overly impressed with the food, however the service was very good.Following good reports from friends, I have recently been back and yet again still not that impressed, the food was very run of the mill.I can only guess that I've been unlucky, as every one else has nothing but praise.

It was not our first time there. The food was excellent. The vegetarian options were also very good. We were a group of six and all had different dishes that were served at the same time.Service was attentive and discrete. I was particularly impressed by the fact that they made my Turkish sweet of yogurt, apricots and honey even if it did not appear on the menu. Altogether it was excellent value for money too.

Went to the restaurant with my best friend! It was very busy. However, the staff was friendly and we were served quickly. The food and the wine were excellent. The bill was OK for this type restaurant. We paid £63 for 2 bottles of wine, a starter, 2 main courses and a pudding. Taking my hubby this weekend! Just love it!

Visited for dinner on Saturday night. The restaurant had a few tables left, so was not that busy.Menus came quickly as so did the waitress asking for our drinks order, after this the service was slow. It took about 20 minutes for them to take the order which is a bit long if you know what you want to eat and they could see that we were ready to order.The starters were below standard if you know about or eat Turkish/Mediterranean food.The main meal took around 40+ minutes without any apology from them. We had to ask where the food was and their reply was that they had a large group of people on one table! As mentioned above the restaurant wasn't full so this should not have been an issue. They then said that food would be about another 5 minutes, well it took slightly longer than that. However I must say that the main meal was good and plentiful.We didn't have a dessert as we didn't want to gamble the waiting time! Plus as everything was so slow we would rather move on.Would I go back? Yes but would not have the starters. Hopefully next time the service will be better.

Went to Maywood at 8.30 on Sunday evening thinking that it would be fairly quiet. By 9 o'clock the place was teaming with the staffs friends with their over tired 2 year olds( I counted 11) charging around and demanding attention.Although the food was lovely our romantic dinner for two was not as we had hoped.Please sort it out Maywood!!!

My husband and I often eat at this restaurant, the food is very good and the prices very reasonable. We love the music that is played on a Friday night, the duo called Malibu play a very wide range of music and often ask people if they would like to choose a song to be played from the vast list they have, they only play there every other Friday and there is another chap that plays on the other Fridays who is also excellent. The staff are always very friendly and welcoming, and go out of there way to please you, we have been going to this restaurant for the last 4 months and every time we have had a wonderful evening, and the last time we went we were all up dancing. Everyone should try this restaurant and not listen to negative reviews.

"Table for two please?"Not a problem on a quiet Tuesday night! We we're the first in there at about half seven but the place soon had about 20-30 people in.The food is to a good/very good standard and the house white wine was crisp and refreshing. The two female members of staff that served us were friendly and helpful.It's a bit out of the way, but if you live nearby (and I do!), then it's a great alternative to going into South Croydon for dinner...I'd go back again and i recommend you pay it a visit

I also attended Maywood with a few friends on the same night as Tikky110 and we all thought that the music duo enhanced the evening.If he had stayed longer he would have found that some people actually danced and we all seemed to enjoy it!! In fact we stayed longer than we intended to as we really enjoyed ourselves.Our party have an average age of 27 (dont know the age of Tikky110)and can only say that the music played was a good mixture and very entertaining. We have dined a few times at this restaurant before and after the introduction of the music and always had a really excellent meal and found it to be good value for money.The management and staff are very friendly and attentive but not overpowering, giving us time between courses.We think the introduction of the music is a plus for the restaurant and they "may not need it"but it gives the evening an added bonus.We also attended a few weeks back and they had a solo act on which we also enjoyed. We have found it to be the only restaurant in the local vicinity that can offer good food reasonably priced,great atmosphere and no hidden charges for live music.Our advice is to try Maywood for yourselves on a Friday night and you will be pleasantly surprised.

We ate here recently and live locally. There is a really good selection on the menu, complimentary bread & olives were served when we arrived. Had excellent food and the service was great, not rushed, plenty of time to eat and talk. Beer & wine didn't appear to be overly expensive.What spoiled the evening for us was a cheesy live music duo - "Mailbu Duo", a keyboard player and guitarist, playing along to a synthesized drum and bass track. We endured it through the starter / main course - a selection of middle of the road 70's & 80's rubbish. We were going to have desert, but then they launched into "Delilah" - the awful Tom Jones song. "Bill please!!" and we left. It's a shame as the restaurant is very good - the food is excellent, tasty, hot and served in plenty of time. The room itself is modern with a large conservatory and is a pleasant place to eat. If the management read this - get rid of the live music. You really don't need it and you're scaring people away with it!

I have visited this restaurant many times since they have opened it, the food is always special in maywood, really tasty and you feel like a king there, the service is brilliant. They have a new menu now, and it is very rich, I have had stuffed sea bass last week it was stuffed with prawns octopus, squid and some other seafood and it was simply the best i have ever had, cant reccommend this place enough and for the quality of the food and service the prices are exceptioanlly good. I have also had tasted their kebabs on other visits, they are also incredibly tasty, this is definately one of my favotite restaurant, also they have some extra tables outside for the warm summer days now, fab fab place to go ... but it is always best to book especially for the weekends, i always get the table i like when i prebook it, this restaurant offers geniunly delicious turkish food with class...

Have been here before in the evening and meal was lovely. However went today for lunch. As friend got out of car he felt faint, so they offered him chair and glass of water outside first. Then charged us for the water! The meal was ok, smaller than usual. However I was not happy to be charged £16 for 4 half shandies, basically equating to £8 per pint of shandy. raised this with waitress who said she did not set prices but then did give us £4 back, this meant that the shandy was still £6 per pint. I will not be visiting here again. What a shame!

My friends were very impressed with the food and the portions, and commented specially on the freshness of the fish. The staff even surprised us with a piece of cake with a lit candle at the end to make the evening special. This is my second visit to the Maywood and I will definitely be visiting again.

Food was not what i had expected. Youre paying overprice for what is basically a posh kebab. (The posh bit is the table and chairs you sit on).Staff were helpful.

I have visited this restaurant twice now and if I choose to go back to a restaurant then it cannot be a bad one. I am a fussy git! Positives are an open grill with a visible chef so you know what is happening there. Great European/Mediterranean menu with an Arabic twist in some areas. Clean and well presented staff in premises I would describe as tidy and welcoming and modern. It can get hot on the interior in summer so sit in the conservatory if it is shaded or if it is night time. Winter I would sit far inside. The designated waiter we had after the first visit took an age to ask us if we wanted a drink. I called a passing waitress who responded well but the waiter then gave her evils for being on his patch. I didn't see him on the second visit, maybe he had gone. All in all, I feel that this restaurant is a good culinary experience with a laid back atmosphere but is hit and miss for service. I have to say that some friends complained about steaks not being as described i.e. sirloin served instead of fillet but I only go on my own experiences. My partner and I think the service and food was great on the second visit and the food was great both visits. Give it a try and see for yourselves it will not cost you a lot.

After having experienced the poor food & service in another local Turkish restaurant - Marmaris in W. Wickham, we were over the moon with the whole experience at Maywood! We hadn't booked a table (risky for a Friday night!) but the waiter managed to seat us in the new "outside area". The staff were very efficient and attentive from the start and all through the evening. The food was delicious and the bill was great too!Will DEFINATELY be going back! Will book next time though as every time I drive past, regardless of the day, it looks busy!

Started off great, we were the first customers in there, so service was great until another table arrived! waitress tries to memorize order!!!!! Main course very nice (Chicken Shish) very large chunks of meat but nice. For a Wednesday night it was quite busy, so that probably accounts for the lack of service from about 7pm. Waited ages for the dessert menu and had to ask for it in the end, ordered our desert and were told that the Baclava had run out last night??!!?? No desert available for my dairy intolerant daughter, so had to order the prier and cinnamon desert with no cream and I ordered the same and I have to say it was the most revolting combination I have ever tasted. My father (who's birthday we were celebrating) not only couldn't hav he Baclava he wanted, but his Ice cream never arrived!! we had to get up to ask for the Bill and get up to go and pay as no staff even acknowledged us just sitting there waiting for 15 minutes. They kindly didn't charge for the desserts but that's not the point. Overall a very disappointing meal out in an area that is crying out for something decent. What a shame is all I can say, and to all those that frequent there now.......you'll get bored of the 80's menu of prawn cocktail!!! Drive a bit further and go to the George in Hayes, a much nicer, classier modern restaurant. Once more criticism..... If you have kids, DO NOT sit in the new 'lean to' out front as your children's voices echo!!! Much to the annoyance of the stuck up lady(eating her prawn cocktail). sitting behind us!!!!!!!

I guess as ever its all about expectations - this restaurant is new to the area and in truth there is a limited number of worthwhile places to eat in the local vicinity, so we thought we would give it a go.From the o/side its clean and modern, so ticks the boxes - sat down and the staff were efficient in asking for our drink orders and presented us with our menus, so all good so far.The menu was seriously disappointing, it was between cross between Haz (Turkish restaurant chain based in Ldn), and a 'mediterranean' restaurant from the 1980's ... prawn cocktail, Tournedos Rossini (steak), and garlic mushrooms, with the rest of the menu being Lamb or Chicken Shish.The food we had in fact was nice enough, and the portions were reasonable size and its unlikely that in that respect you would be disappointed and go home hungry but opening this restaurant was a great opportunity for the owners as i say with such limited competition, and its such a shame that it failed to meet expectations.Overall - the restaurant is adequate i guess for a local dining, and it will always be busy as im sure it appeals to some people, and it will be fine if you want to take ageing relatives out for something to eat, but personally i was hoping for more.

This restaurant hasn’t been reviewed in three years. It’s undergone many changes, fortunately they’ve survived and remained open throughout the pandemic. I don’t know who the owner or manager is so I’ll reserve comments on management. I am happy with the quality of food I’ve purchased there. The cook is friendly, the counter service could do with the basic courtesies, like thank you.
