Honestly the best food in Towcester. So good, great portion sizes, friendly staff take away is also really good if you want good healthy takeaway. Delivery would be good but only a small suggestion that would only make me want it more often.

Been here a few times to eat in and had takeaway. We were short for ideas on what takeaway to have on Boxing Day as all others were closed, but Olive tree saved the day and we had the sharing platter for 4 and it was lovely! I’d recommend the bread too! Service is always friendly and accommodating when we have eaten in.

Food was quick too be served, came hot and we weren't rushed at any time during the 3 courses we all had. Good choice on menu, certainly be going back again.

Went here without booking and that's exactly how we were made to feel, inconvenience, we were told by the older lady waitress with dark long brown hair, you can sit over there!!! Over where exactly, no taking you to your table, menu's chuckled on the table and walked off, no customer care, no smile, asked if we had any allergies as she walked off, so really bothered about that!!!! On one positive note the food was very nice just diabolical service. How she can teach other youngsters who were actually better than her I don't know. Seriously need to get some skills on how to look after your customers. We won't be returning sadly due to this.

The vegetarian choice was soggy, tasteless and unimaginative . Soggy peas, potatoes and courgettes . I sent it back ..was offered an alternative but the choice for vege and vegan was not very appealing so I declined.

Booked at short notice and they were able to accomidate us and couldn't be happier. We had the Cold Meze plate between us and the two kids along with wonderful home-made olive bread that they make and all was absolutely delicious. This was followed up my main courses of Chicken Shish and Lamb Adana which tasted amazing and were good healthy portions. The ambience was great on a busy Saturday night and the service was efficien, friendly and attentive at the perfect level as well as being great with the kids too. When the bill came it represented great value for money too which is hard to come by. Definitely a place that we as a family will be revisiting!!!!

This place is almost always fully booked. So get on booking if you are looking at this! We called and they were full, but then they had a cancellation and called us back. Which I thought it was really nice. You can smell the nice food from outside and doesn't let you down! We had two kids and was great to see they had kids menu. The food was amazing and quickly served. Staff was friendly and efficient. There's a great atmosphere here. Definitly recommend it!

Very disappointed tonight. As a continued customer I have ordered many meals from here as the food is usually great. However the service and quality has definitely slipped lately which is a real shame. The restaurant used to be bustling and you couldn’t get a seat. We definitely have to book in advance. Tonight the system glitched on me twice and unfortunately ordered the wrong meat for the same dish. As someone that doesn’t eat this meat we were disappointed but thought as regular customers maybe they would meet us half way? Just give us the right meat or even a children's portion or even a discount? Something.. but nope the computer told them that so tough for the customer. While I appreciate that they wouldn’t know that I was telling the truth I feel that as a regular customer I wasn’t honoured with the curtesy of kindness. As a business owner I appreciate my customers and will always try to help out where I can even if the mistake wasn’t mine. I wasn’t even told I was being passed onto someone else on the phone ie the manager, I was kept on hold for ages before that I thought maybe she had just gone. I felt like they didn’t care and I was just annoying them. They were both curt and short with me. There maybe a reason this restaurant is not full anymore and maybe its not just the handsy owner. They have things in the menu in the desert section that they don’t do which they need to remove so that’s frustrating. The sauce pots for desert were all over the place and really the food is over priced chicken and rice! In the past the food hasn’t been ready and I have had to sit and wait 10-15 mins with no offer of even a soft drink! I get more than that when I drop my car off at the garage! It’s fine we will now go to the other Turkish and as a local person I will make sure to share my experiences. Very disappointing.

Visit here when staying with our son. Always enjoy the food but the portion size has reduced.

Gorgeous food. Disgusting attitude from the staff. My hard of hearing partner did not hear the young lady server so asked her to repeat in which she rolled her eyes, spoke about him to other staff infront of us. Proceeded to give us dirty looks the rest of our meal. Management need to assess their attitudes when working in hospitality, do not attend unless you’re looking for eye rolls and staff immaturity.

Had a lovely meal and evening here in November and so booked with friends to eat here on Saturday evening. Food was lovely, and plenty of it. The waitresses - terrible! Bought our food out and held it up high so we couldn’t see it and offered no conversation to ascertain whose food it was. Gave us desert menus but never came for our order for deserts, coffee or more drinks, so we decided to leave without any. We had to call the waitress’ several times for our bill and another customer told them we were calling them. We paid the bill and left without any of the staff acknowledging that we was leaving, thanking us for going, or wishing us a nice evening. Totally rude and disappointing.

Called on a Tuesday evening to order for takeaway. Asked few questions about items in the menu and was told off to check the menu on their website and can't answer any more questions as they are busy. When asked how much wait for the order take away. Was told minimum 50 minutes wait. Doesn't look like they need business.

Nicolae was on hand and helped pick our starters (always a good start otherwise my husband would just have meat). The food was absolutely amazing as usual and nicolae was on hand for any extras that we needed, no request is to small for him as he loves to look after his customers, and as a surprise he did an ice cream cake for my husband as it was his birthday and sang, such a lovely touch, thank you Nicolae and staff as we have had a lovely lunch .
