Reina Kitchen in Chichester

You must try ribeye steak i love it

Authentic taste, i liked how the taste was not tapered to the assumed local palate. We expected more sides with the cusines, especially the sea food platter. Would definitely come back soon.

Nice atmosphere, but if you do have any plans after this make sure you give yourself double the amount of time you think you have as the service is painfully slow. The food was good but I feel like I could of gone to a kebab house, saved a lot of money and would of had the same experience. Overall mediocre

We had lunch, the staff were lovely, the food was nice but the venue was incredibly noisy because there were large families having lunch. It may be less noisy at night.

Great welcome, brilliant service and food excellent.

Fantastic food, great service and atmosphere

Excellent service and atmosphere. The food was really good - be warned, it is quite rich, so don't over order

I hired the upstairs room to celebrate my wife’s 70th. Birthday. James, the manager, couldn’t do enough to help the planning and execution of the event. The food was delicious and plentiful, all the staff were delightful and the addition of Charlie serenading us (on James’ recommendation) made the party atmosphere complete. I would highly recommend Reina Kitchen.

We always go to the same restaurants because we like what we know. I suggested going somewhere different and we decided on Turkish food. 1st time at a Turkish restaurant, so we weren't sure what to expect or what to order. The waiter was very helpful in explaining some of the dishes. I ended up getting the Reina special, as per picture. Wow! It was so nice. The meats were grilled to perfection with no fat. And the salad and rice were amazing. Finished with Baklava desert. Again, very nice. I think the partner wants to go again next week.

I’ve been having trouble deciding whether to leave this review or not - but I feel I owe it to them. Ok - so for the simple stuff - the food was absolutely delicious. Everything cooked to perfection and proper tasty. But the tricky bit - and I know this might sound strange - but the service was just too quick! It was all just too much - to start with I have never been asked so many times if I am ready to order. I made myself clear from the start (I actually said it 3 times) that I wasn’t in a hurry - but our waitress just didn’t take it on board. She was lovely and very attentive but ultimately delivered service that made me feel hurried and frustrated. If I have already said I’m not in a hurry more than once it is not advisable to then come over before the starters are even finished and tell me you want to bring me my main. I was then told they would have to ‘heat it up again’ when I was ready. Not cool. In the end we did get a fresh dish and it was lovely. I’m saying this to help you learn. Going out to dinner is an experience that for some they don’t get the chance to do often - listen to your customers, give them an experience that makes them feel relaxed - not rushed in and out the door as quick as possible. Do that and your already fantastic restaurant will become even better.

I never been eat like this kind of delicious lamb chops it was perfect.

We had a lovely experience. Both the kitchen and bar staff did their best to satisfy us. The courteous bartender did the best cocktail I’ve ever seen. Will definitely visit again

Had a lovely dinner last weekend. We had a big group of 7 people we were sitting upstairs and the nice gentleman who served us was very helpful although the food came a little late.

Lovely atmosphere and decor. Didn't get welcomed very well. Just told to sit down. A simple hello with a smile and where would you like to sit would be good. Most expensive Turkish food I've paid for. And still left feeling hungry due to portions being small. My wife paid over £20 for some king prawns and salad. Sadly left the place hungry. And paid over £70 for 2 adult meals and one child. Which is crazy.

We love this place!! The food is excellent every time - the drinks are delicious and the service is impeccable. The waiting staff go above and beyond - have recommended to so many friends and it never disappoints.

All very disappointing - wait on arrival to be acknowledged, put on a table knocking chairs with the next table, half-way through the starter before drinks arrive, having to flag down staff to get any service, singer too loud when diners hadn't gone there for music, 2for1 cocktail menu put on the table only to be told at bill time that it was not available that night (as valentines day) - unimpressive all round

Ate here with a group of six, on a busy Friday evening. Food was beautiful, well presented, large portions and overall a great meal. The chef came around after to check on our food and to apologise for the delay to our mains (which wasn't a delay at all, around 20mins between starters and mains), but really did appreciate the service the chef showed. Highly recommended!

Rushed the meal and was egar to get us out the door. the main came before we even finished the start

Second time visiting with a large party, once at Christmas and once on the 10th February and both times the restaurant was packed and seemingly overbooked. I appreciate that there were 3 large tables upstairs alongside a full downstairs however 3.5 hours for a table of 20 was too long. We had 3 tables, a 10, a 6 and a 4 next to each other rather than one long table so the party was split up which wasn't great as it was someone's 40th birthday who wanted to spesk to everyone. We ordered some efes and cocktails and after 45 minutes got told they had run out of efes. Should have said straight away It had run out rather than leaving us to wait and order our own drinks at the bar instead. It took 1.25 hours for the starters to come out baring in mind we had pre-booked all the food. My starter the mucver had run out and they didn't tell me until I was the last at the table. Got hastily given some falafel as an apology which was cooked for our table by mistake but wasn't given the option to change my order or look at the menu to clsee if I wanted something else. Mains came out relatively shortly afterwards after the host had been given the food order which they should have requested at the start. Overall a poor evening and not a restaurant I would recommend to anyone which is a shame as the food was good.

Good food, little wait as busy but it was nice

Food and drinks were delicious and our host Berat was very hospitable and looked after me on my birthday thank you very much :)

I had an astonishing experience. the food waa delicious. special thanks to mr. berat for his fast and high quality service. he's a real top g

Always a fabulous meal at Reina’s. The food is amazing and the service is impeccable. We were served by a couple of different staff who were attentive and sociable, especially Berat who was happy to chat and answer questions. Very highly recommend.

My husband and I had a wonderful experience here! Berat, our waiter was incredibly professional and friendly. The food was excellent! Will definitely be returning again!!!

I had Reine special. The sardines in the mixed warm starter tasted and smelled bd. The meat was chewy. Baklava was not fresh. The coffee was great.

Great menu, visited on a Tues so didnt expect the best service Food 10/10. Would visit again

Huge portions Lovely Ambience Taste food Best in Chichester Forever i love and highly recommended this Restaurant ❤️❤️❤️

Came here with my friends to celebrate a birthday and we usually love it here! However, I was so disappointed. We waited so long for people to serve us, the food was over an hour wait. The food was nice but just made it poor due to the length of wait. We were put upstairs too so wondered if we were just forgotten about.

I'd give this restaurant a 'good' but that's not an option. It's better than average, but not 'very good'. Huge portions of good but not outstanding food. We ordered too much because we ordered a starter without realising that we'd be given free pitta and dips. Cold mezze starter was more a selection of dips than other mezze starters I've had, and some were tastier than others (and we'd just had some with the bread). Main courses were generous with well cooked meat and a good sized salad. Efficient and friendly service.

Excellent food. Staff are brilliant and attentive. Can't fault it.

Great food, but timings need to be better. Don't expect to be served main while still eating starters.

Arrived on time for our booked table. Waited in the entrance for a few minutes and was pointed to a table by a passing waiter. We sat at the table for at least 30 minutes with only a drinks menu being handed to us. We then left and i don't think any of the staff knew we were even there.

Really sad to write a bad review but our experience was NOT good. Our table wasn't ready, service incredibly slow and disorganised, toilets were filthy- the accessible toilet was blocked and over-flowing. Food was okay, mixed mezze starter was a disappointment. Mains were fine but nothing exciting. Only decent thing was the wine. Such a shame as this was a very rare date night out which turned out to be very expensive and a real disappointment.

I try to avoid writing negative reviews, but having felt ignored at this establishment I feel as though some feedback is necessary. On arrival we were gestured to a free table where we could sit (not shown to a table). Then after having waited 30 minutes, during which time there was simply no service other than being handed a drinks menu, we upped and left. I think they were completely oblivious to the fact that we had left too.

Awesome food and staff great service come back again definitely try Bartander’s special he amazing cocktails made magical

If you're seeking a taste of authentic cuisine in a warm and welcoming environment, look no further than Reina Kitchen . From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with smiles and hospitality that made us feel like honored guests tasty food nice ambiance nice decorations

I think this restaurant is best restaurants in chichester because its not just lovely food i feel like home nice atmosphere friendly staff my day was amazing thank you Reina we will back soon.

The service was fantastic from the minute we walked through the door to be greeted and taken to our table was warm and friendly. the restaurant is beautiful inside with a lovely atmosphere. the complimentary dips and breads you got with your starters were divine,...

We had a table booked for six people and arrived early. Our table was not quite ready so the staff found us another table so we could have a drink while we waited. The restaurant was very busy but the staff were very polite and the service was excellent. The food was really nice and we all had a great evening. I would recommend the resturant but make sure you book. Thank,s once again to James and all the staff for making our evening so good.Mick

Another excellent meal. Very tasty, good value. The staff are friendly & helpful. Would thoroughly recommend them.

Amazing well recommended .you can order food,before you go .

The service and the place are really good, the atmosphere is fantastic, unfortunately the food wasn't as good as expected and very small portions..

Unfortunately didn’t have the best meal last night shame as this was my go to favourite restaurant and always took people here when visiting Chichester but last night I took friends the kebabs was tiny cubes a pathetic pinch of side salad all put on a massive plate so It looked lost on the plate didn’t get the three side dishes I ordered i did ask a couple of times but did t get it,still tried to charge us for them!! my friends moussaka was cold in the middle and it felt like we was absolutely rushed because they wanted our table the service was rubbish the guy was rude when this place open the staff went above and beyond but now it seems they just want you in take your money and get you out as soon as possible!! Sadly will not be returning for a long while if not at all!!!

This evening was the worst experience we have had in a UK restaurant EVER! It was my partners birthday meal and we travelled to Chichester for the weekend to celebrate. We had a fantastic Friday evening in Bosham and had booked Reina Kitchen for our...

I’ve been in Reina Kitchen today for my business meeting. The food was really good and tasty. I would definately recommend to try. It worth more than five stars.

Food was okay, however waitresses seemed rushed all interaction gave off negative energy. I was shocked as had heard the food and service was 5 star, highly disappointed. Personally know multiple people who have worked there and unfortunately they are paid under minimum wage and do not receive their tips, staff turnover at 85% due to their firing of staff because they aren’t Turkish. Prejudice, rude, disappointing.

Nice and cosy place. Will be visiting back

I recently enjoyed a fantastic meal at this Turkish restaurant, where the salmon dish stood out as a highlight. The attentive service, inviting ambiance, and exquisite flavors make it a five-star dining experience.

the service was horrible, heard manager shouting at waitresses the atmosphere was horrible the whole kitchen was shouting food came out cold and tasteless, don’t waste your time or money coming here, they’re very unhygienic, i spoke to the waitress and she told me they get their tips taken away from them feel sorry for them the manager seems horrible

Super quality in every respect.. most enjoyable environment.. highly recommended... hard to find any faults. Staff superb

Amazing food,lovely staff,bit of rush,but we had table on Saturday,so we understand that.I added on my reservations that he was my birthday,but no one acknowledged that.

Food was amazing, I thoroughly recommend a visit if you enjoy Turkish. The service fluctuated between over zealous to hard to find (they were very busy though). We did feel a little crammed in, as only the downstairs was open, I would suggest losing a table or two making for a bit more space.

I took six friends to the Reina Kitchen to celebrate my 71st birthday. Apart from myself and my partner the others had never been there. I was extremely happy with the food, service and atmosphere. The staff were so friendly and helpful all of my friends commented on how good they were. The food was enjoyed by all and we were not rushed at all, spending three hours over the celebration lunch. I would certainly recommend this restaurant to anyone.

Went to the restaurant on Friday evening. Service was good but the food was very average at best.To pay over £20 for a mixed sesh and only receive very minimal amount of meat and salad. I won't be returning!!

Good menu, good food, good location, friendly staff. Restaurant has a good ambiance and in good condition. Tables are a little too near to each other. Overall not a spectacular but a good dining option in Chichester.

Birthday meal with the family. Loved the menu absolutely delicious food and great service. Thought it was good value for money. Will be back

Food excellent. Fri evening super busy, therefore very noisy.

We've been here a few times and usually it's been great. However, our most recent visit was really disappointing. While the food was still great, the place was clearly overbooked and we were sat in a corner halfway in the bar. The service was slow, some dishes never arrived and we didn't get offered more drinks in 2-3 hours we were there.

Great food, great service and also cater for gluten free 😀 👍

Sadly disappointed. The rice was just warm and tasteless but the chicken was lovely. No salad arrived and unable to get service attention to rectify. This is the second time part of a meal wasn’t served. Seated near the door and it was freezing. The doors opened every 30 seconds and you were hit with a blast of cold air each time. Asked for another drink and it never arrived. We normally have dessert and liqueur but didn’t bother.

Food was nice, but rice was cold. Overall very good

After reading such great reviews we were really excited to eat here. Unfortunately they had clearly over booked with Christmas/large parties and the few of us who had booked to eat as couples at 7.30 weren’t important. The man who was running the front of...

The Food really fantastic... it's my first time, but before I finished the food . I was thinking to come back again. 👍👌👍👌👍👌

Good food, and fantastic service. Reina Kitchen Chichester never fails to be a great place to eat.

Fantastic place to eat at night, lovely white bait and gluten fee breads. Superb main course and they cater for people with allergies. Will be going back again for sure

Brilliant service , incredibly friendly team of staff and the food was fantastic. I'll never look at an onion in the same way again. If you are in Chichester you really need to eat here at least once and whatever main dish you choose, definitely...

Absolute chaos when we arrived!! This place is popular beyond belief and the staff do everything they can to serve you. The food is authentic with a varied menu. All tastes catered for. Ambience downstairs is great. Upstairs is buzzing.

Banging experience, came for my dad's birthday and it didn't disappoint. However it is pretty expensive but worth it. I have been going here for quite a while and everything was perfect as always. Would highly recommend the chicken shish!

Very nice restaurant, generous food portions, and very tasty. Welcoming staff 😀.

Amazing food, service & cocktails. We can't recommend this restaurant enough. Thanku for another incredible experience.

Great size portions and so delicious! Love this place ❤️

Food cooked over coals Incredible The lamb out of this world Staff can’t do enough for you They deserve success 😊😊

Amazing food best restaurant in this Town.

we have been there few times they always make a good food amazing

This is a hidden gem of Chichester food scene. Lovely ambience, great food, lovely service. Highly recommended.

Best restaurant in this city i really enjoyed thank you so much for all staff

Really lovely food, the staff are friendly and welcoming. Did get a little noisy in there with large groups. The staff were aplogetic but it can't be helped. Won't stop me going back.

What a lovely evening! Such a great atmosphere. The food was so lovely and the staff so attentive, friendly and efficient. One of the most enjoyable evenings I have had in a long time. I will definitely visit again and would highly Recommend.

Great night, friendly staff. Lovely atmosphere and wonderful food. I would definitely visit again. Thumbs up.

Massive portions, I made the mistake of getting a starter before my main. My only complaint would be that the time inbetween courses was so tiny I felt abit rushed because of this but I know that is not their intention. Would come again and ask then to hold the main for a bit longer. Definitely recommended

I’ve been here quite a few times now and the quality of food & service still remains the same. I would most definitely recommend this little gem to anyone! My all time favourite is a mixed grill & they also have a good selection of mocktails too.

Pre booked a table of four but don’t think I needed to as was pretty quiet for early lunchtime. Excellent service and food,I had the prawns and they were so delicious Everyone else had the yogurt chicken kebabs. Lovely. A bit pricey but I do...

Family of 5 adults visited for a birthday meal. Was told the mixed hot mezze was ample for feeding 5 but I have to disagree. There was 2 of each item so even cutting them in half it wasn’t enough for everyone to try each...

Reina Kitchen is the ideal place for a meal out with friends. Wonderful food that oozes flavour. Really friendly staff and management. Very good pricing in a clean restaurant. Highly recommended time and time again.

Had a delicious dinner here, Lamb was superb. Surpised with how good the bulgar was. Service was efficient and friendly. Missing the 5th star as front of house smelled very strongly of stale cigarette smoke, not the most welcoming. All round a good meal.

The waiters were so rude and unpolite that litteraly made me regret for going in So far the worst experience ever , not recommend!

Simple amazing service , decent price and great food.

Always a warm welcome and friendly and attentive service. Food is delicious, fresh and authentic. Always leave feeling satisfied with everything

Half our order was missing and when we called we were met with nothing but rudeness. We usually order from them frequently but after this it will be our last time. Huge lack of customer service for a loyal regular customer.

Best restaurant in this area,,,,

The food is absolutely delicious and all freshly made including the flat bread. Staff were super lovely.

Thank you for a wonderful dinner! Really appreciated the great service, thanks for ataying late. Thanks for fab food. All were happy! That was all 7 of us!

We had a wonderful dining experience at Reina The food was absolutely delicious, and the service was excellent. Our server was very attentive and knowledgeable about the menu. We started with the cold Meze platter which was perfectly cooked and seasoned. For our main course,...

Delicious food and friendly staff. We held an event in the lovely upstairs space and were very well looked after. Would highly recommend.

Excellent food, good size portions. Service was first class. Would highly recommend.

The service in this restaurant was fantastic, we were greeted at the door, seated and constant removal of empty plates in order to make room for others. A server keeping his eye on our needs from a far and popping up as our drinks were...

We had big party at this fantastic restaurant, and they were amazing, food, service and the atmosphere just brilliant 🤩 Staff were very professional welcoming and friendly. Amazing organisation with serving dishes and payments. Top restaurant, we will definitely be back and We recommending this restaurant for anyone who loves good food Thanks Magda

I would have liked to have the option of rice instead of pearl barley with my meat. Other than that, great food and good service!

We came here with family and friends for a birthday evening meal. We felt very welcome, the staff were great fun, the service was unmatched and the food was very delicious with authentic flavours. Will definitely go back when in the area!!
