Liver kebab was rocking Service great dilara Parking free on Sunday

Dilara was really amazing with her great service. She made us welcome from the time we sat at our table. She was very knowledgeable about the menu and helped us with the vegan dishes.

I would like to thank Dilara who was very kind and friendly when we came to Şelale with my family this evening. She came to our table many times to ask if everything was ok. The food was amazing. Thank you again. We will definitely come back to Dilara.🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

I come to this restaurant very often. Food is always on point as is the service and vibe. The waiter Nuri always is welcoming and attentive. And I never say no to the complimentary baklava and turkish tea. Highly recommend this place.

We came for breakfast for the first time for my friend's birthday. The service from Ahmet, one of the waiters, was very fast and friendly. The service was excellent. I will definitely come again.

It’s an authentic Turkish restaurant. Good food and amazing staff especially Ahmed was so helpful and welcoming.

Lovely place with delicious food

We came here from 1.5 hours away for breakfast. The variety of food and breakfast, the price, the service speed are excellent. Ahmet, one of the waiters, was friendly and attentive. We will come again, again, again.

The food and the service was exceptional. Shoutout to Sinan who recommended really nice Turkish dishes 10/10

Ahmet served us and I couldn’t have a better serving experience that the one he provided. I was very content and could say one of the best so far.

Ahmet was the best waitress I have ever been served . He was so kind and so perfect in communication and so welcoming. When the service is amazing more people will come . Thank you so much Ahmet for your service .

Incredible food! Huge, generous portions. Everything was delicious. Their chicken doner, calamari and rice pudding are exceptional.

Top notch! Service, food, atmosphere, hospitality... Etc. Thank you for hosting us, we had a lovely evening. Special thanks to Fatoush

Delicious food and amazing service. Our waiter Nuri was extremely friendly and accommodating, he got us gluten free bread especially and brought us extra tea. Have been to this restaurant a few times now as I live nearby and always have a fabulous experience. Will definitely be back!

Amazing food, amazing service, very good value for money and very friendly owner. Came from Oxford to visit this place and will definitely be back!

Nuri is my hero. He does his job very well.

Came here for a chilled post birthday meal and it did not disappoint. Great food and great service. The portion sizes were more than enough. Nuri in particular provided us with great service. Will definitely be back again.

This is my family’s go to restaurant, the service and food is always great! We had Nuri and Sinan serve us and they were super lovely and attentive

Selale restaurant was selling what I believe to be expired food. This is because after a few bites of the meal, my family and I were still feeling sick, and we informed the manager, who acknowledged that the food was the final offering he sold. We didn't eat the food at the restaurant, but we took it away because we don't like waste after the restaurant. We are currently experiencing stomachaches, headaches, and vomiting. When I informed them of our concerns, they appeared unconcerned and did not apologise for the incident.

It was great service and friendly stuff . Recommend to everyone

Absolutely rubbish service . Food was cold

It was an excellent meal, we would like to thank all the employees one by one. Especially the service and taste of the food were excellent.

This was my 3rd time going to this restaurant as I typically go whenever I’m in the area. However, this occasion was my 3rd and last time coming. The whole restaurant was infested with flies to the extent where we were struggling to eat our food as it would fly onto our meals. Adding on to this, a waiter accidentally smashed about 5 class cups in front of us, causing glass pieces to fly everywhere all on our clothes etc. At that point we should’ve got up and walked out but we just saw it as an honest mistake to overlook. However, they failed to clean the glass thoroughly, which we then had to keep calling them back to clean large pieces of glass all around us. I was shocked at the level of hazard training as glass can be extremely dangerous if stepped on by adults or kids. I would’ve expected for the restaurant to apologise at least or even offer something as compensation as we had glass all over our clothes but they did neither. We just decided to leave our food and take off the service charge in order to just end the experience as soon as possible. I’m quite appalled to say the least as I had recommended my friend to join me at this restaurant but I guess this is why people say it’s better to eat at home.

The food tasted great. It's street food with fancy prices. But to be fair the salad, bread and desserts are included. All were tasty though. Tea is included as well but we did not have any. Probably why the dishes are a tad bit higher than usual. I don't go to Turkish restaurants often and I'm not sure if that is the norm and it would have been great if they told you these things. We got the dessert, I think it was baclava but they did not say what it was. We also needed to know what was in it to be sure, in case of allergies etc. Whilst service was good, it would have been better if they communicated better and told us the names of the dips. A solid 4 stars.

Unfortunately looked fabulous inside And out We were first timers I knew wasn't going too be good experience but I thought I might be wrong ...started off we were seated the staff kept looking over but they were very intrigued with My partner kept looking and talking about us foood came was OKish we Then had dessert and tea they still looking at us my partner knew I was uncomfortable He sat besides me we took a few photos off ourselves but we could feel the stares We got bill and quickly left Will Never recommend or visit again £71.00 later

Delicious authentic Turkish food for a reasonable price, very fancy as well! The staff is very friendly and considerate.

Very good timing and great food, lovely service and would recommend

Have eaten at this place many times, always had nice food until now. Myself & a friend ate there last night, we ordered the mixed kebab for 2. I noticed an odd smell from some of the lamb, the taste was that of meat going off. I spoke to the waiter who just apologised. No one came to talk to us about it, no one gave a damn. Consequently I was sick later on with diarrhoea and vomiting. I’m appalled and we will never eat there again.

Amazing food. Great service. Fantastic place. Highly recommended. You can't go wrong here.

Amazing atmosphere with good hygiene and delicious food and appetisers!

Another great breakfast at Şelale. Ahmet took care of our table, and we enjoyed some really nice food. Everything was fresh, delicious, and well-prepared. We’ll definitely be back.

This was our first time visiting Selale restaurant. After reading many reviews, we certainly wanted to dine here. Upon arrival the decor and atmosphere was nice. The staff were attentive, friendly and went above and beyond to recommend dishes and to make us feel welcomed. The food was exceptional, in particular the prawn and lamachun. Food was cooked to perfection and the taste was perfect. Thank you for making our first visit memorable, and we will certainly be back with friends and family.

Everything about the restaurant is wonderful. Me and my family come here on a weekly basis for turkish breakfast and it never fails to impress. The service is amazing, the food is incredible and the restaurant itself is beautiful.

Food great but well over priced very expensive

Their service was perfect.very polite waitress and waiters such as Ahmet,Emmene…I recommended them to try it 💜💜💜💜💜

We were there two times on our holiday and to be honest I had never such a good and attentive service! Needless to say the food was delicious and the ambience nice and relaxed. Absolutely recommend it.

Very delicious food, good choice for dinner as well as breakfast. As locals we can't recommend Breakfast at Selale more.

Been coming to eat here for over a decade. Everything from food to staff to drinks are top notch. You get lots of free (delicious) bread, salad and dips before your order arrives, something that we always really look forward to and enjoy because its so tasty and a free turkish tea with a baklava after your meal which is the perfect finish. We usually order the chicken shish with yogurt and the lamb beyti and they are by far the best Ive tried at any turkish restaurant. We live far away so dont visit very often, but the food, service and very reasonable prices are worth travelling for. The staff are faultless, friendly, professional and go out of their way to make the experience as enjoyable as possible. The owner is also a really warm, lovely person! My favourite restaurant by far, we will be visiting many more times over the coming years.

Lovely place! Came here for an evening meal, service was on point, atmosphere and food was lovely!! Specifically a big thank you to the lovely man who served our table, very warm, friendly and kind. Didnt catch his name unfortunately! But served us on the back window seat. Update: we come here quite regularly however this time we were really disappointed. The food tasted bland and flavourless. We always get seasoned complimentary bread, this time it was plain and when i told the waiter he said im meant to ask for it? I never usually have to, so i was quite confused by his answer. The food tasted very different to usual, we come here as its usually very flavourful and nice. Today me and my husband left over half of our plate full. My husband is a big eater however he barely ate his meal as he didnt enjoy it. I was very disappointed and asked the waiter if the chef had changed / to which he said no. Not sure what went wrong here but we were really unhappy that we spent £60+ on food we barely ate and was tasteless. Dont think we will be returning after this experience. We come here very regularly for all occasions but will have to look for a new place now!

One of the best Adana kebabs ever had, bread was seasoned and tasty. Service was kind and fast.

One of the best Turkish restaurants I have been to in a while, the portion was very generous and the meat was juicy and tender. Will definitely be visiting very soon. Lovely staff and great service.

Just the BEST charcoal grilled lamb ever. There's always a super fresh juicy salad as a starter and soft warm bread to dip in a selection of sauces. Definitely, one of our faves.

We came to London from Leicester after reading the reviews and I must say you didn’t disappoint. The service and food was impeccable and will surely visit again upon my return. If you want Turkish food guys this place won’t disappoint

Good food and friendly, attentive staff. Abundant dishes and fair prices.

One of the best Turkish restaurants I've been to... great food ,great staff ,lovely atmosphere

I recently ordered two kunefe from selale through Deliveroo and was very disappointed with my experience. The menu description promised kunefe served with syrup and pistachios, and the accompanying picture looked delicious. However, what I received was simply baked plain shredded fillo dough with none of the promised toppings. This was a major letdown, especially considering I was looking forward to a sweet treat. I hope the restaurant improves the accuracy of their menu descriptions and photos to avoid misleading other customers.

Very high quality food, great service and atmosphere. They even play my fav musician Kenny G’s songs, deserves a 6 star!

Hands down my favourite Turkish restaurant now.. lovely decor and friendly staff compliment the amazing food.. I just love taking friends to this place for the first time, it’s so impressive… such a nice touch bringing us baklava and rice pudding on the house.. can’t wait to go back!

Yum!, Fresh and quality service. Definitely ordering again

Since I ordered on online couldn’t say anything about atmosphere but food was extremely delicious and strongly suggest it

Had dinner at this resturant tonight with my Daughter, and i had to review, the service was excellent, lovely staff and so friendly. The food was well prepared and tasty and plentiful and well worth the money. KEEP IT UP GUYS.

Nice food but unfortunately they are friends with local hateful conservative party.

Food was decent. Not the best Turkish but not bad either. Service was OK, The decor was lovely. Very comfortable and astheticly pleasing,

A beautiful place to spend time. Good service. Good food and very friendly staff

Always good food but the previously competitive prices have crept up. Back in 2024 for fabulous food. Always friendly, efficient staff. Fab meal.

This restaurant is a favourite amongst my buddies. Despite the scowling female waitress, who thankfully we didn't have much to do with, we were not disappointed. Great selection of food and good sized portions. Everything arrived hot and they gave us free baklava and rice pudding to share (not pictured). The mains were Chicken salad, Halep and Lamb chops. The bill was just over £100 for 3 of us and we took doggy bags home.

Horrible cold dishes and service. Overpriced for the quality of food. However we ate the things that came out of jars, was nice clotted cream and jam. Eggs was hot dishes are served so cold and under cooked though there were very few customers around.

This was my first time at Selale and it was great! Ferdi went above and beyond to make sure my friend had a lovely birthday - the food and customer service was excellent. Thanks so much :)

Verdi was absolutely wonderful. He made my friends birthday so special. He was very professional and approachable. Would defo recommend.

Ferdi was so lovely, so welcoming and friendly. Such great customer service.

Ferdi’s service was phenomenal!! My sister had the BEST birthday, he was efficient, friendly and catered to our many requests with grace and humour. I’ll definitely be back!

Amazing food for a fair price your paying

These people are lovely, the food is great, they welcome everyone, And ferdie is the best waiter, very polite, very helpful, they serve you nice

Excellent and plentiful food! Courtesy and professionalism! Not to be missed in London!

A great restaurant. You can find other Turkish restaurants of similar quality in this region, but you will immediately notice the difference in Şelale's menu and the taste of its food. The music playing in the background does not tire you, the team is wonderful and the service always pleases you. If you go a little further inside, take a look at the section where they prepare the food and you will see how neat and clean it is.

Food is very tasty and the staff forthcoming and kind! It was my birthday and they surprissd me with a free cake, some tea and some shots!

One of the best Turkish restaurants I’ve been to. Took my family here, they were very attentive, very good food and very good staff. Me and my family had a really good time here very good atmosphere. The staff, in particular Emine and Ferdi were very good. I’ve not had this good of service in very long time, was quite refreshing and I’m really happy with Emine and Ferdi. The food was really nice but the staff made the experience. My family was very happy. Excellent, definitely recommend.

Amazing food, even better service. Whole experience was really good came for my mums birthday, they have such a warm welcome and such a good birthday surprise as I asked them to bring out cake for her. She was so so happy. My whole family was really happy and very good atmosphere. Food was really good meat was cooked very well and tasty. Ferdi and Emine were so amazing, took very good care of us, amazing customer service. Well done for choosing staff like Ferdi and Emine real gems. Will definitely visit again!!

Great service. Nice staff, quick and responsive. Food can be better

Ferdi was amazing! Great service, attentive and even surprised us with a birthday cake for my mum! Would definitely be back

Ridiculous prices, Same food as the rest of the shops on Green lanes., but price is soooo much. I asked them if they are halal, the workers were confused what halal even was. Best shop is Diyaarbakir on green lanes or any other shops where they proudly sell halal food and avoid alcohol.

Every time were in North London with my mum it's a must go spot for us! We love it. There are many similar places on the high road but Selale is the best.
