Opuz Aylesbury in Aylesbury Vale

Super fast, attentive service. Food tasted phenomenal. Friendly staff. Nice, peaceful environment.

The place is very nice, with amazing food and very nice staff. Opuz is a place we will come back to eat, as well with our friends and family

Shame. The food is excellent. The management show pure greed and naive business acumen. When you book a party for ten people and pay deposits for all, which is normal. When one person is unwell and doesn’t attend, you don’t expect that deposit to be taken and told we are keeping it as didn’t make money on them. Yes, if all or a proportion don’t show then reasonable, but very poor and stupid from a business perspective for obvious reasons.

Went here for my birthday and had such a lovely experience. The food was really nice and the staff were soo friendly especially Elena, they gave me a little birthday surprise which was honestly soo sweet. Definitely would recommend this place.

Amazing place and the food was really good too. All staff were very nice and accommodating, Elena was so lovely, would definitely recommend.

We wanted a reasonably quick meal before a show at Waterside and this fitted the bill perfectly. Staff very helpful & friendly; menu interesting and enough choices for our vegetarians. Prices reasonable.

Really good experience here, and hence we took friends back just a few weeks later! We enjoyed the Sujuk (sausage) starter along with the calamari and falafel which were all flavoursome & nicely presented. Then for mains, we had the creamy chicken, boneless chicken, mixed Shish (definitely recommend) and the seafood sauté. The latter dish was interesting as it was all the various types of fish but served in almost a soup like sauce but taste wise it was delicious even if visually it wasn’t what I was expecting! I have to say that the portions are very generous too which means value is good overall for the food dishes. Wine was pretty good quality, especially the Romero Malbec, even if the standard South East UK pricing pushes you towards having a glass rather than a bottle as £11+ for a glass is rather steep especially in Aylesbury! Good, friendly service, especially given it was packed in there on a weekend evening. Overall, definitely recommend and will be back!

This place is great, food is delicious, service is great definitely coming here again

Fantastic lamb shish and friendly staff. Amazing atmosphere that makes you feel like in a high end posh restaurant. Prices are pricey, but well worth paying for what you get. Finding parking around the area is the serious challenge.

My partner and I visited here to celebrate my birthday as it was on our list of restaurants to try after recently moving to the area. First impressions were great, we were greeted in a welcoming and friendly way, the decor is beautiful inside the restaurant and seating very comfortable. Service, however, started slow. It took a while before we were given menus, we were able to order drinks reasonably quickly but then...nothing. After half an hour we still hadn't received our drinks or had our food order taken. There did appear to be a staffing issue, the restaurant is quite large and looked to be about half full when we were dining yet there were only a couple of waiters and just one person behind the bar making drinks (and this place has an extensive cocktail menu which plenty of people seemed to be ordering from which aren't exactly quick drinks to make). Staff seemed to be far too busy to be fully attentive to diners yet they were always friendly and polite when we did interact with them. Presumably the kitchen wasn't quite as thin on the ground staff wise as once our food orders had been taken our starters arrived quickly and the mains followed swiftly afterwards. We were served bread (large, puffed up pitta bread) and some dipping sauces which were lovely, we had a sharing starter of borek, halloumi, calamari, falafel, hummus and sujuk which we both thoroughly enjoyed. The calamari was perfectly cooked and the borek was beautiful. We'd definitely have this again. For mains I went with lamb shish whilst my partner had the beek cheeks. My lamb was lovely, again perfectly cooked with 6 large chunks present on my plate. Unfortunately the rest of my plate was salad. Not even a particularly nice salad, grated carrot, shredded lettuce, picked red cabbage and rocket in separate piles. The salad to meat ratio was poor value for the £20.50 cost for the meal and if it wasn't for the starter, I'd definitely have still been hungry after finishing my meal. Unfortunately, the vast majority of the meal dishes on the menu are served with these piles of salad leaves so you definitely need starters and/or sides for a filling meal here. My partner's beef cheeks were served with a small amount of mash potato and covered in a mushroom gravy, however. His meal was much more 'put together' and again, was absolutely lovely. The gravy was really tasty and the beek cheeks just dissolved in your mouth, incredibly tender. We moved onto desserts, apple crumble and blueberry creme brulee. Again, the creme brulee was expertly cooked, excellent texture and tasted great. The apple crumble contained walnuts and sultanas, the crumble topping was lovely and it was served with a dollop of very flavoursome and creamy vanilla ice cream as well as a little jug of custard on the side. This was a lovely desert, tasty but not overly sweet in my opinion. In addition to this we had a couple of cocktails each, there was a good selection of cocktails including classics and something a bit different you wouldn't find anywhere else. We thoroughly enjoyed them. The total bill, including 12.5% service charge (which is always a big bare of mine, just charge what you need to charge for the food rather than slapping an extra £15 on the bill for the privilege of having it bought to the table!) came to around £135. We left full after a mostly enjoyable meal and didn't mind the price too much given it was for a special occasion. We would be back again but would probably opt for the lunch in future. The lunch menu is a bit smaller but still with plenty of choice and most of the dishes also feature on the a la carte menu, they're just half the price on the lunch time menu.

Fabulous food in a lovely setting. The staff were efficient, friendly and knowledgable. There was an excellent drinks menu with extensive non-alcoholic options. Food was out quick and piping hot, which is ideal if you are combining a meal with an event at Aylesbury Waterside Theatre or a film at the Odeon Luxe, both of which are opposite.

I liked the lunchtime menu. The interiors are also very nice.

A good atmosphere and pleasant decor. Starters (Borek) very good, but main courses only passable (too much boring salad). Dreadful oven chips, so mass produced.

Had a fantastic experience at Opuz! Stefan and his team delivered top-notch service, and the food was incredible.

Great experience! Stefan was welcoming, the food was delicious, and the vibe was spot on. Highly recommend!

Great food and an amazing service. Stefan attention to detail was great

Aiko our server for lunch was impeccable! we will come back again!

Very good service, Aiko is very accommodating. Excellent food. Highly recommended.

Food was so tasty, team is amazing. Special thanks to Stefan and Jerin

Amazing experience! Stefan and Jerin provided an excellent service, and the food was delicious. Highly recommend!

Amazing dining experience! Stefan and Jerin's service was outstanding, the dishes were delicious, and the ambiance was perfect.

Lovely place, staff is very attentive and nice, food is just amazing and the selection of wines and spirits are the best in town definitely 😉 well done

I came here for my birthday yesterday evening and the whole time was lovely. The restaurant is very nice looking, and the staff were very friendly and attentive. The added touch of the candle and writing on the dessert was really nice, and was appreciated by both myself, and my wife who had booked the meal out. Will definitely be back!

Food was lovely, service was tip top. Would highly recommend . Came for our wedding anniversary and would celebrate here again. Didn’t catch the name of our waitress, she was Australian and really good at her job, credit to the restaurant.

One of the nicest restaurants in town :)

Great place.. but we just felt underdressed compared to the posh people there.

Meat and rice quality need improvement. Salad was not included in the mains.

Great atmosphere, beautiful design, and tasty food you can find in this amazing cozy restaurant!!! It is quite busy even in the middle of the week😉😉

This is the first restaurant that I have been ushered out of so that someone else could use our table When we had just spent nearly £1000 . I found it very rude and a insult to our custom. This was a 50th birthday party so not a rowdy group of youngsters.

Went here on Saturday 5th Oct to Celebrate a friends Birthday. We booked a table for 2 people at 5.30pm. I wish I had a picture of the Food, because it was absolutely divine! We had the following... BEETROOT DELIGHT V Cooked beetroot, feta cheese drizzled with vinaigrette dressing BOREK V Cigar shaped crispy filo pastry filled with feta, halloumi, spinach and fresh herbs, served with sweet chilli dip LAMB SHISH Prime cuts of marinated lamb cubes, served with salad CHICKEN SHISH Marinated cubes of chicken breast, served with salad With a Side order of Chips and a side order of Broccoli. We had no room for dessert, but they brought out a sweet treat Happy Birthday surprise which was really lovely. Great attentive service throughout the meal and the cocktails are really well made. It wasn't busy when we arrived but it was packed by the time we left. All in all it was a really pleasant experience and I will definitely visit again!

Amazing food and service . Was here for a friends birthday. Absolutely loved the atmosphere!

Fantastic food, excellent atmosphere, friendly staff and managment all make an effort to make your exerience lovley. 100% worth the money and would recommend dining here. Dont know why i didnt go sooner!

Really disappointed - came here for my auntie’s birthday celebration, the service was poor; our server was very rude and blunt, not at all accommodating I ordered the Cafe du Paris Steak and found not one but TWO hairs in my food - when I asked our server to sort it out, there was no apology and it took another 40 minutes for a new, different meal to arrive; no manager came over to apologise and nothing was discounted from our bill - I did not feel accommodated during my visit Apart from the nice decor in this restaurant, I will NOT be eating here again - very disappointing ☹️

Awesome ceiling heights and decor and features. There's a mezzanine level, a viewing window into the kitchen, and easy parking in the municipal open air car park within metres. Food presented stylishly. Tasty haloumi and mushroom starter. Super fresh salad and succulent chicken and lamb shish for main course and 'birthday baklava' and a luscious, velvety mocca to round things off. The cosmopolitan, upbeat team members who looked after the seven of us were friendly and attentive, without being overly intrusive. 31.8.24. Dined here again, with a booking big enough to effectively monopolise the mezannine. Both the food and the staff were excellent.

This place is absolutely incredible. The service is outstanding 👏 👌. The food is fresh and delicious. Aylesbury needed a place that offers excellent quality food. I am blown away by this restaurant 👌👏😍👍🥰☺️👌👏😍👍🥰☺️👌.

10 out of 10 I ve told them that we are celebrating 6 years of marriage, and in the end, they prepared that nice dish for us. Thank you

We went there for the hype and found the food was great etc, until we found a hair on one of the sauces and when we told the server it was 'plastic ' (must be very long blonde hair plastic),, that is the moment we said we were done. Would I recommend? I don't doubt it after the experience. I'm sure it will be one off.

Lucia was amazing for my brothers birthday, from the moment we walked in to the last drinks. Thank you so much for hosting us! We will be back and can’t wait to see you again ☺️ 10/10 food and service

Great value for the lunch set. Quality of food was excellent too, would go back.

The service at Opuz is excellent!" Aiko is very polite and attentive, going above and beyond to provide a wonderful eating experience. Congratulations to the whole team!"

Had an excellent meal. The mixed fish shish was amazing. The size of the fish pieces were huge. Highly recommended

My friends and I went to Opiz to have a drink and it was almost midnight. The ambiance was perfect and Aiko was really friendly and professional with her job. We will definitely be back.

Aiko is very accommodating! She is one the assets of Opuz. Lovely to have her in our weekend dine in. 💜

For my son’s 21st birthday we booked this restaurant. I am so glad we did because the service from Bita was amazing excellent, the food was fabulous, and the venue looked so plush. Lovely seats and a huge bar. Thank you so much for making his birthday so lovely.

Great venue, great food.which arrives promptly, good variety and relaxed atmosphere

We have been here a couple of times always been lovely a bit disappointed this time not up to their normal standard which was a shame .Staff always pleasant.

There wasn’t a wide range of vegetarian options, and the service was a little slow. However, 10/10 atmosphere, the live entertainment was amazing and the aesthetic of the restaurant was very appealing. The waiters are also very friendly.

Great place, great service and an excellent burger

Lovely anniversary meal, fantastic food and cocktails, thank you for really attentive service. Best cocktails in Aylesbury! 🍸

Walked by when we arrived said "this looks great will have lunch here" So glad we did. Great food, great service , wonderful atmosphere and decor. Gf had the salmon fillet , and I had the lamb saute. Fantastic we both really enjoyed it. Price was great. Thank you so much for a lovely dining experience. Will be coming back again even though we're not local

Went there for a lovely meal. Service was excellent, our waitress (sorry I didn’t catch her name) was very attentive and helpful and the food was delicious. The bread that supplemented the dips was really nice and topped up when we ran out. It was my birthday and they gave me a lovely dessert and a brief happy birthday which was a nice touch

Best restaurant I’ve been in a very long time, all staff so friendly and welcoming. Thank you Opuz for making my birthday celebrations so special.

great food , amazing service , beautiful setting.would definitely visit again!

Food was great and our server, Aiko, was attentive and helpful

Good was okay I have been to the other opuz in Hemel and Watford and both are better value, portions are bigger and they do not charge extra for rice or chips it comes with the £20 main course price they seem to be charging more to get the spend up. Service was nothing special I think as they add service charge on to every bill they do not need to try as they know they just add it on regardless.

Nice place, with plenty of staff and space.

Visited Opuz last night with a friend. Everything was 10/10 Highly recommend to anyone to try it out. Food was just amazing and so clean!

Beautiful decor and friendly staff. The food was decent too.

Nice place, delicious food but too small dish.

Great place for lunch. Their complimentary bread was excellent. I don't eat meat but their vegetable moussaka was amazing. Food was very flavoursome

Delicious food, great atmosphere. Finally a restaurant in Aylesbury where the owners have put in a decent amount of money to make it a all round great experience. My borek starter and chicken skewer main was so delicious and good value for money. There is also a very good selection of wines and other drinks too. There was a mishap with some of the food but this was rectified quickly by staff who were very attentive. Thanks Opuz for a lovely meal.

Excellent atmosphere and menu and of course, food

Service is great! Food is glorious! Aiko our waitress is very friendly and efficient! Keep up the good work!

Absolutely fabulous night. Table of eight all gorged with delicious food. Good value. Service was faultless. And live music to boot. Thank Opuz

The food is tasty and staff are very accommodating. Especially Aiko who served our table. Would definitely come back again. Pricing wise, it is not too pricy.

Outstanding as usual. Fantastic value lunch at £15 per head. The lamb was yet again - a dream. A beautiful restaraunt with all of the expected hubbub of a fine dining establishment. Always an absolute pleasure to dine here. Sometimes Opuz can be exceptionally busy but Sel and the team work exceptionally hard to keep everyone content, which judging by some of these reviews, isn't an easy task?! If you are one to expect take away style food and gross portion sizes, arriving in just 5 minutes from ordering - then this is not the right eatery for you. If you expect top quality, clean and freshly prepared authentic Turkish foods, always served with a smile, then do not hesitate to book a table. We visit at least once a week and we are always most welcome. Saturday nights are a wow for larger dinner parties and their resident live musicians are fab. However, any night of the week ensures top level service and a food experience not to be missed.

Perfect ambiance, helpful staffs. Special shout out to Aiko, made us feel comfortable and well looked after. Delicious food 10/10

We travelled from our home time for the 2nd time now to eat at this restaurant. All of use enjoyed the food and it was a shame that we forgot to take a picture of it before we are everything we had. Next time we will upload a picture

Just about perfect, however, it does come at a cost.

Excellent bread and sauces are served first. Starter with mushrooms and halloumi is recommended!!and the steak for the main course was great

The food and the atmosphere are great, it is definitely a place you can choose if you want to spend quality time and get good service.

Had a lovely meal tonight, the food was excellent and the service was even better with humour and laughs. Violet was fantastic with us and really made the evening

Very nice place to dine and food and service was excellent. Jerin was also an amazing host throughout. Highly recommend for places to eat in Aylesbury.

First visit and I was really impressed. Good selection on the menu which should really suit anyone. Food quality, really good. Portion sizes were ideal. Staff were attentive with good personality. I'll definitely go again. You need to try this place.

Excellent food and service. Good choice on menu

Style , opullence and delight !

Great Aesthetics! Staff has been great every time I've been for b'day celebrations. Food is great- will definitely go back& recommend. One of the best restaurants in Aylesbury.

We had a great experience at Opuz Aylesbury! The atmosphere of the restaurant was very warm and inviting, and the decoration was stylish and modern. The food was truly amazing. The appetizers we had as starters were fresh and delicious. The grilled meat we chose as the main course was cooked perfectly, the quality and taste of the meat was truly admirable. The service was also very fast and friendly. The staff was always ready to help and very kind. We will definitely visit again and recommend it to everyone!

What a brilliant place. Innovative take on Mediterranean food. Great atmosphere and service. Very reasonable prices too.

Excellent experience great food and Service. Wonderful relaxing decor. Looking forward to our next visit.

First time going to Opuz Aylesbury and it was brilliant. The staff service impressed most but food (beef cheeks) was also amazing quality. Would highly recommend.

Served by violet,great humour perfect service had a great time at opuz, Aylesbury!

Friendly staff, delicious food and a nice atmosphere

Extensive menu, freshly cooked, great service and a welcoming environment. Highly recommended. Loved it.

Lovely decor. But extremely overpriced. Lunch menu was £12.26 for chicken shish (£10.90 plus forced 12.5% service charge!) which consisted of just four cubes of chicken, some salad and a very thin strip of flatbread. Salad was nice. Shame not more bread or even a spoonful of rice to mop up lovely juices. Seems more style over substance, won’t be returning, far too overpriced.

Amazing. Did not know such a special place could be found in Aylesbury; which is becoming a good place to visit.

It's clean, it has nice and friendly staff, and the food is delicious.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at OPUZ in aylesbury, and it was an experience that surpassed my expectations in every way. I was captivated by the beautiful interior design. The ambiance is a perfect blend of modern elegance and cozy charm, creating an inviting atmosphere. The food is exceptional. I would recommend the opuz sharing platter for 2 as appetizers, the mixed grill platter. The presentattion of the food was outstanding! The service was impeccable. The staff was attentive, knowledgeable, and provided excellent customer service.

Beautiful decor and overall setting. Tonight was my third visit and every time the service has been prompt and attentive. We had both meat eaters and vegans in the group and everyone thoroughly enjoyed their food! Thanks to Violet for being a great host

My 3rd visit and the 3rd time I'd say I'd come back and recommend to anyone with a face.

If you haven’t got long covid and can in fact taste, this place is bang on. Violet served us and I am almost certain they hired her from the Savoy - her attentiveness was top class.

Lovely place with good food and very friendly staff. Recommended!

I can honestly say, this place has the best Mojito in Aylesbury! The atmosphere and staff is excellent and the food totally outstanding. 👌 I do not remember when I enjoyed food so much. We tried Opuz Combo for 2 (calamari was perfectly cooked) and Lamb Shank what I fully recommend! Definitely we will be back to explore more Menu there 😉

I had visited opus with my cousins . We been served by jarin . He was really helpful & smiling . Food was so yummy. Overall we had a great time

Just a must try. Food outstanding Well done Sam. Great service. Live music was amazing

Really gorgeous place to eat. Stunning food and amazing surroundings. Brilliant service by Violet. We will be back!

Place looks beautiful and food was delicious. However some food wasn’t cooked properly. Most importantly they are VERY generous with the chips but VERY stingy with the Meat. We don’t pay so much money to order less meat and so much chips. With the high prices you should add lots of food on the plate too! Especially sharing platters. Taste is definitely there, either cut down the prices or be generous with the meat. Also if there’s more than one customer you should give more bread, not expect everyone to share one bread lol. Looks cheap. Won’t be visiting again.

We had an amazing meal here for our first anniversary. The food was fresh, flavoursome, and you got a lot of it per dish. The cocktails were delicious and staff were so lovely and attentive. Will definitely be returning!!

Absolutely fantastic, service was very prompt and professional. We went for the lunch menu, £14.90 for a starter and a main. The portion sizes are smaller than the main but very generous. The taste was amazing and the complimentary bread is really good!

Fantastic. Loved it. I"ll come again.xx
