Parma la Familia in County Durham

Despite not being local to Durham, we visited on a friend's recommendation and were blown away by the service and atmosphere – don't miss the sombrero photo opportunity! My Steak and King Prawn Fajitas were excellent, with generous portions and fantastic flavor (though I'd suggest chopping the king prawn tails). The "Tia rose" starter for two was incredibly large and could easily feed four. However, our friends' Chicken Kiev pizza was a bit of a letdown, as the excessive toppings made it soggy and undercooked, requiring a trip back to the oven. While their pizza wasn't great, my fajitas were definitely excellent.

If you know anything about Turkish food you'll realise this is the worst you will ever get with no authenticity whatsoever; we visited with friends and the service was abysmal, the decription of the dishes (e.g. whatit contains) is different from what is served, the food is tasteless, the meat is chewey, the lamb is more fat than meat (low quality cheap cuts), humous prepared out of a cheap tin quality, hot starters are minute cold and burnt, service is awful with a bad attitude and without any alcohol, the cost is comes up to £50 per head...massive cost for low quality ful of fat dishes served with poor attitude...awful awful awful. Never again

Really delicious food, excellent friendly service and nice atmosphere.

A wonderful find near the cathedral but just far enough away to avoid the crowds. The service was superb and the prices fair. I enjoyed this restaurant so much i came back two days in a row

¡Una verdadera decepción! No volvería y ciertamente no recomendaría. Qué lástima como había sido hace unos años para el almuerzo y fue genial. Reservado para cenar un viernes esperando buena comida. ¡Fue horrible! Langostinos y calamares fríos y demasiado cocidos, cerdo de vientre duro y frío, y la paella era solo un bulto robusto con cubos de pollo demasiado cocidos! El camarero se disculpó, pero nadie más vino a discutir los problemas con nosotros. Nos fuimos hambrientos y solo llenos de decepción.
