Our first visit to Skewd. Excellent service, excellent food and staff were slick and very professional. The food is made from top quality produce and we could not fault it. The prices are higher than most Turkish/Mediterranean Restaurants, but the quality shines through and is therefore worth every penny

We went to Skewd at Belmont farm last week to celebrate my fathers birthday.This was the first time for many months that the 6 of us could be out together so were looking forward to it.Unfortunately the food was on the whole was a disappointment.I must however say the calamari were excellent.When ordering our starters my wife asked our server about the salad ( at £8.00) and she said that it was quite small and not suitable to share ,she suggested we order 2.We felt misled as it was far bigger plate than we were told.Out of the 6 mains all had issues.Prawns overcooked,lamb and Adana were dry.I ordered the mixed grill and was surprised at the small plate of food given.I actually called over the manager and said is this the mixed grillHis response... yes 3 cubes chicken 1 yes 1 cube lamb 2 tiny ribs 1 chop and AdanaAt £26.90 with no rice or chips thought this was disappointing.My fathers main of Adana was burnt !Had it not been his birthday I would have made my feelings known at the time.Although our main server mislead us with regards to some ordering she was very friendly which cannot be said for any of the other staff who brought up our food/ drinks. With only 3 alcoholic drinks and no desserts a bill of £222.00 was excessive.I do not mind spending a lot on a meal out but simply felt this was not value for money.

Top quality food and service, had the scallops for starters, which was nicely seared with mash potato and the lamb shish is out of this world.Attention to detail is given on every dish, very busy on a Tuesday night, queue outside, service was great, with knowledge.Ambience is great, highly recommend and will definitely return.

There is nothing skewed about Skewed Kitchen, they are welcoming, polite and take care of you from the moment you arrive. The kitchen is in full open view and there is nowhere to hide for the chefs. However, these chefs should be seen and applauded. They do great food, really well. Even their take-away is next level. Beautifully packaged and perfect portion sizes.if you haven't tried Skewed Kitchen, then you should. It's great

We visited the Skewd at Belmont Farm. Had heard a lot about the restaurant in Cockfosters so have been meaning to go for a while. The location is good with great views. Service is outstanding.We had a selection of 5 cold meza, they got one of the 5 wrong and were happy for us to keep the mistake and gave us the other starter FOC.We all went for the shish kebabs, 2 x Chicken, 1 x Lamb and 1 x Adana. When I saw the price I was expecting a full plate and was shocked to see 6 chunks of meat only. The chicken and Adana were fine but the lamb just didn't taste great an at £22 we expected better. The prices are ridiculously high and Im not sure what we had warrantied it. service 10/ 10, food 5/10

If you would like to be served by rude and arrogant staff then this is place to go. Only if you park with your Bentley or Lamborghini you might be treated nicely.

Cannot really fault the food or service but wow the prices are about 30% higher than two other comparable restaurants near bye with very similar food. They do not serve Wine and I was told in advance that I could bring my own for a fee of £10 a bottle. £10 can you believe that!!! Sadly we will not be back.

Expensive and mediocre.Located in the wealthy, residential area of Cockfosters, is this soho style, upmarket Turkish restaurant modelling itself as "gourmet". With fancy waitresses hovering around and house music thumping in the background, be prepared for eye watering prices with most main courses over or around £20.We ordered octopus which was tasteless and rubbery. Halep which is sausage looking from a skewer and the classic shish kebab. I have a feeling that one or all of these meats were not fresh. This resulted in "dodgy tummy" later (cramps, running to the loo).I don't recommend this place for eating but if you want to meet for a date or as the large table of young girls showed, for drinks with friends (and some appetisers) for a birthday, then its a good option.Otherwise, go to Gokyuzu which does Turkish food properly, fresh and at normal prices.

The smell of the charcoal even before you enter the marquee at the pop up at the farm is so enticing and the display of beautiful fresh produce. Great service even though incredibly busy and just superb food! We had mezzes delicious freshly made dips with lots of flat bread and superb prawns. Then lobster and lamb kebab and the best chips sprinkled with salt and rosemary. Loved that I was given a sample of mastic ice cream to try! You can book for £10 corkage or short but good wine list and lovely cocktails

We have been going to Skewd kitchen in Cockfosters since it opened and continued to have take away during lockdowns.When Mill Hill pop up opened a few weeks ago we were thrilled.The restaurant is wonderful, great food, great service and lovely atmosphere.The owner has gone all out to ensure distancing and warmth together with the best food.All we can say is that this is the best restaurant by far locally and probably beats may top London venues.Never fails to impress; thank you to Elias and his team for such great service and evening out together with perfect food.

Have eaten at Skewd many times and the food has always been of a high stantard.Unfortunately, tonight's takeaway was very disappointing.The starters, especially the beetroot tarator and Tarama tasted nothing like the dishes we have ordered before.The bread was dry and did not taste fresh.The chicken shish, both portions, were over cooked and dry.Overall a very disappointing experience. We always want to support local businesses but if standards have slipped then unfortunately we have no choice but to give business elsewhere.

On 26th January 2021 at 6:30pm we called up Skewd Kitchen for delivery to feed my family and bubble of 6 people including kids under the age of 12 years old and two dogs.We spent a whooping £150 + £5 for delivery service, (we live in Goffs Oak) When the food arrived we was extremely disappointed and disheartened to find the halal mix meat platter for 5 people very chewy, especially the chicken that was over cooked and we could hardly chew on, and even the kids couldn’t digest the meat, the tiger Prawns and lamb chops were over cooked and rubbery. Also to find that the salad was not freshly made on the day and there were brown leafs on some of the salad boxes. We were given a lot of unwanted dips and bread (maybe this was to bulk up our order?) We have ordered from Skewed over 4 times (with no problem, during this time we only ordered a meal for 2 people) We thought it would be more respectable to have a word with the Manager in person, on the 27th Jan, 2021, myself BoujeeZ Kitchen went to the restaurant to speak with the manger, in which he was not there, but the chef left a message. Later on in the day, we received a very rude and disrespectful phone call from the Manager in charge, I believe his name is Ali (apologies if it’s the wrong name) he got extremely rude and defence over the phone as said, we get a lot of customers and that there was nothing wrong with the food…. I asked the Manger if he tired the food before it was sent to us and he said no. After being rude and not allowing us to talk further on the phone, he said in a aggressive manor “That there is nothing he can do, and he basically doesn’t care if he looses our custom. From this awful experience, we will NO LONGER be going to SKWED, and will tell our family and friends never to enter this restaurant again. HIGHLY DISAPPOINTED , BAD customer service, POOR quality food (presented to us on the day 26/1/2021.) Best Regards, BoujeeZ Kitchen.

Decent enough modern turkish menu with a variety of dishes. Service was good. It was busy there, so a good sign, though this was right before tier-3 so probably a last gasp for many people. On the downside it was pricey for two courses and not that much alcohol. Main negative - very hard to have a conversation as the music noise level was more akin to a nightclub than a restaurant. Maybe that's what the regular clientele want as they can't actually go clubbing at the moment?

I've been to Skewd twice: both times with different groups of friends. The first time, the restaurant tried to charge us for tap water. They offered us tap water (their words) which we accepted. When the first and subsequent bottles arrived, they were not sealed and we're in refillable, unbranded bottles. We ordered quite a few bottles - maybe three or four - each time asking for more tap water and each time receiving the same type of bottles. When the bill arrived, we understandably made a fuss until the restaurant took the charges off. On the second occasion, I found a hair baked into the cheese on my Turkish pide. Obviously, I complained and received a new one. However, the meal was already ruined for me so I didn't eat much of it. I received an apology but did not receive any sort of compensation.

Skewd’s atmosphere, authentic Anatolian food, AMAZING customer service is a must try. I have been going here for almost 3 years and it never fails to deliver an elegant meal packed with flavour, and staff who really take care of you. You can see the delicious food being cooked on the grill in front of you! The service (inclusive of the fantastic hygiene/ safety measures for COVID) are just outstanding. You must try the seasonal specials, octopus, scallops and the lamb shish with chargrilled vegetables. Their food is just a work of art - you won’t regret it!

This is one of many times I've visited this restaurant, but first since it's new renovation. Just like before it didn't fail to disappoint and I had a fantastic night enjoying beautiful food amongst good company on my table but also with an welcoming atmosphere within the restaurant as a whole. I don't believe there is an actual dress code for this restaurant when dining in the evening however I personally got the feeling that most people felt more comfortable to be amongst the smart dressed. This does not imply that people are judgemental at all, but more so that the vibe of the restaurant is very lively, up beat and sophisticated. Staff are extremely attentive and knowledgeable about their food, and if your husband is anything like mine where he constantly asks for recommendations, then be assured you'll be in good hands. Staff take the time to ask what you like and recommend well suited food to your liking. I without doubt would highly recommend their scallops for starters and their lamb shish for a main. OMG they are both out of this world, the scallops melt in your mouth, so soft and succulent with its beautiful concoction with the mashed potatoes. The lamb, well I just can't even start to talk about them without my mouth watering. Flavours and textures are to die for. And, I leave the best to last which is their walnut cake. This warm dessert is served with a cream of some sort, oh gosh, it is AMAZING! I've been told the chef makes this fresh every day and quite frankly you really don't need to be told this to know for yourself. The cocktails are amazing too and I really cannot wait to visit this diamond again. Whether it be with friends, a family meal or a date night, you will not be disappointed.

We had pre booked, but there was lots of seating available.We were shown to our table by a member of staff who was wearing a face mask [as were all of the staff.]We were presented with a disposable paper menu. This restaurant is transparent as diners can see the kitchen and the food being prepared.Among the food that we ordered was 0.9 kg lobster. This cost £ 63.00Lamb Shish cost £ 19.90. It was good quality meat which was well cooked and well presented.In this restaurant you pay for EVERYTHING. We asked for more pitta bread. Three small pieces of bread were brought to our table, for which I was charged £ 2.90.With a couple of soft drinks, and service the bill came to £ 135.00

We’ve been to this restaurant 2 weeks in a row now as we’ve had to visit London.My parents actually recommended Skew’d that’s including my mother who isn’t the biggest fan of meat and does not eat any red meat at all.We have 2 children and sometimes it’s hard getting to enjoy a meal, a GOOD meal with the 2 munchkins.My husband and I are big fans of our local kebab shop in the trusty old midlands, but never thought a kebab could be served the way it is at Skew’d.The Lamb Shish is an absolute dream, I couldn’t ask for anything more and just wish I could pop in there again right now just to have it! The first time I visited I tried the huge mixed kebab, and this weekend, the Ali Nazi (also lamb shish).What an incredible dish, the meat is cooked perfectly in my opinion, it’s beautiful and tender. The flavours are absolutely unreal!Our children had the King Prawn dish this time which was served with a delicious garlic sauce which they then mixed into their pilav rice.The service at the restaurant is the cherry on top, nothing feels like a bother, the waitresses and waiters are with you in moments of even thinking about them.The best little touch for me is the incense sticks and the fragrance of the hand soap and lotion in the bathroom - what is that lotion, I need some at home!We were given complimentary hot chocolates for the children this weekend due to their good behaviour, what a thoughtful little gift. I’m glad we have found this restaurant and will visit much more often, it’s a great little discovery and needs to be visited if you’re in or around the area! It’s definitely worth the trip!

This place is a must visit. The experience from start to finish was just exceptional. Special mention goes to the manager Elias who greeted us with a huge warm smile as soon as we entered the restaurant, and realising we were not pleased with our table, went to great lengths to get us situated to our satisfaction. Seriously. The service was lovely and prompt and the atmosphere was everything that could be desired and then some. Then the food. Just wow! The menu at first glance seems pricey for ‘just Turkish food’ but then when it comes, you understand. It’s NOT just your run of the mill grill. These chefs are properly cooking fine food and have elevated the Turkish fare you might be used to, to delectable, fragrant dishes that are as much a pleasure to behold as they are to taste and savour. We had: calamari, chicken wings and scallops in Malibu butter. Hands down the best calamari we have had anywhere and the chicken wings were just indescribable. We could have just supped off the chicken wings all night but that was before we tasted the other wonders to come. The scallops in Malibu butter were very different to any we’ve ever had and we found them interesting and delightful. They were also gigantic scallops. Our mains were mixed grill, lamb chops, lamb shish on smushed aubergine, lamb ribs and chicken wings. Number one, nothing was dry, overcooked or burnt. Two, everything was soft with fantastic textures. Then the flavours, the way the dishes were cooked and presented, with every last morsel succulent, was excellent. Banish from your kind your regular dry Turkish. Everything was of a very high standard, in taste and presentation, with well executed concepts around each dish. The Ali Naik, my lamb shish on eggplant was just incredible. Everybody had exactly the same sentiments and said we are going back ASAP. It’s very, very good value for what you get and we recommend it unreservedly for the reasons above and the considerations below. It was a busy Friday evening and it is a full restaurant but they manage it well, with a well thought out and efficient layout. The manager and the waiters all mill about looking at customers and into their faces to see if they are pleased or need anything or just the give a high five if you are smiling, which we all were. Class act. Thank you Elias and team. You did yourselves proud.

Tasty dishes, fresh salads and delicious freshly baked breads. Enjoyed a cheese pide and salad, whilst my husband had liver and my son had chicken & lamb skewers. The chips were huge, crunchy and not my favourite. Service was perfectly adequate. We only nipped in for a light lunch and soft drinks. I was surprised they added 12.5% on our bill. I said £5 was more than enough tip for lunch. So I paid that, as service is “optional”. Quite expensive.

Joined Friends for a Saturday evening meal the food is only a slight notch up from your average similar establishment with atmosphere and decor at that higher level consequently it seems to attract a clientele that are dressed and ready to pay the premium prices that are required for the standard fare provided We had liver to start nothing special followed by large pieces of chicken kebabs and the lamb fillet which came as kebabs and not as a one piece fillet as other similar establishment accompanying rice is an extra by the way they give you some garlic type bread to get you started

Another great meal at skewed, however some misses. Service a little slower, a side order delivered late and cold. We asked for it to be replaced. It was with the comment, we cooked a new one (which I would expect) however it wasn’t! There was the remains of the food off our plate when we had replaced the cold part back in the dish. With new restaurants popping up, service like that will loose you customers!

Skewd Kitchen offers truly authentic Anatolian fine dining, using specialist ingredients and the most modern and inventive cooking techniques in Cockfosters. This fabulous eatery should be one of your first choices to experience the best in authentic yet modern Turkish cuisine. Skewd Kitchen is run by Executive Chef Maz Demir who won Chef of the year at the British Kebab Awards in 2017 and 2019. If I need to describe his menu, I would say it is cultivated by the cultural heritage of Anatolia.From starters; kisir salad bulgur wheat, spring onions, tomato purée, and celery mixed herbs and pomegranate molasses, delicate and tasty. From hot mezzes; Pachanga Filo pastry, filled with mixed bell peppers, Portobello mushrooms, kashar cheese, cured fine beef and parsley, on roasted red pepper sauce, beautiful textures. And Hellim, charcoal grilled Cypriot cheese with Bertha roasted plum tomatoes, we all hooked . Adana Kebab, made with vigorously seasoned, chilli-flaked hand-chopped meat enriched by the smoke that results from fat dripping onto coals snaking its way around and through. Laid tenderly on a long thin slice of lavash it is the star of our meal.What more can I say. Just go and experience the incredible food!

Always very friendly service and consistently delicious food, We eat in Skewd regularly as a family. While their standard menu offers amazing choice and the best lamb shish in London, we also really like the weekly specials menu which makes it more choice

Akşam iş buluşmasına bu restorana gittim. Yediğim yiyeceklerin tatları muhteşemdi inanamadım. Cauliflower, mezeler, ocean kebab, kunefe ve walnut puding... Şiddetle tavsiye ederim.

Food is delicious and presented creatively. The puff bread, meat dishes and baked Alaska (I mean red velvet sponge, chocolate hazelnut ice cream wrapped in flaming gran mariner meringue, need I say anymore???) were the highlights of our meal. Skewd, you had me at the puff bread at the start! Servers were incredibly attentive, the table was wiped down between courses and we were provided with warm wash cloths at the end. Very impressive and a lovely introduction to Turkish cuisine and hospitality. The vibe and music for a dinner out with my husband on our vacation was just right. You need to try this restaurant!!!

Was my first visit to Skewd and the food was lovely. The staff were friendly and gave excellent service. I liked that as a couple they went out of the way to give us a spacious table

Such an easy 5 stars to give, this was Turkish cuisine and friendly service at its best, and in an area where there are plenty of good eating places to choose from. The meal was faultless, helped by a number of imaginative cocktails. All in all a really great experience, this recommendation is given without reservation!! Apologies for the pictures, we may have started before I could take them !!

We visited Skewed on a Saturday and loved the atmosphere. The staff were very attentive. The meal was a bit disappointing as my main was undercooked and not edible. The waitress did not take my plate away to replace but eventually brought a small portion back to me on a side plate. By then I had lost interest in the meal.

We visited Tuesday evening after Bank Holiday for a table for two. Front folding doors were open which enabled guests to enjoy the warm evening. There were a few birthday gatherings and a good old singalong for everyone to get involved! The service from all who served us were professional and not intrusive. There was little small talk, all to the point and the food came swiftly. We chose Turkish beer Efes which complemented our Chicken Shish, rice and salad nicely. Quality of the food was exceptional and so it should be for the price and service charges which are automatically applied to the bill. Readers should note the many comments from other guests in regards to the accoustics. Music levels for a restaurant application like this is boarder line over conversation and the noise from other guests talking, laughing and then the crashes and clangs of the meals and drinks being prepared. The long room with its low ceilings has no accoustic treatment and this most certainly is the issue which clearly the owners, landlords and managers do not appear to have attended too given the many comments raised. We managed very well despite the accoustics and will be returning very soon. A professional run restaurant within a very competitive High Street.

Wasn’t expecting the price tag when out for lunch and visiting here for the first time with some family, however, service was exceptional and the food was great.

Food was exceptional and service was also faultless. The restaurant is very popular (deservedly so) but it did mean that it was very noisy, just from the general hubbub of conversation. This made our conversation difficult for us which was a shame. It was worth it for the food though.

I have been here for a cute date with my partner which is how we found the place. We then bought my family here to celebrate Eid one year and the team were super helpful and lovely to my family. This year, they helped organise a surprise gathering for 8 people for a 40th birthday. The staff were super helpful in the run up to the lunch from all angles. We had been initially talking about a home catered meal and they provided the menu with delivery options. When we changed our mind to do it in the restaurant, they helped pick out a menu on the day tailored to the vegetarians and the meat eaters. I highly recommend this restaurant! Their fresh bread is simply awesome with the cheese butter!

Popped in for lunch. The menu was a nice mix of fish and meat. I had sea bream on the bone, it was truly delicious, you really struggle to have room for the lovely salad, chips and bread! My partner had lamb, equally delicious. Staff are friendly.

I have been to a lot of Turkish restaurants, but I feel this may be the best I have been. Food was incredible and the size of the cubes of meat for the sheesh kebabs were unbelievable. the quality of the meat was top notch and cooked to perfection. Really good restaurant and I hope to go again.

When you make that long journey just to eat real Turkish fine dining cuisine head to Skewd Kitchen. They never disappoint. Executive Chef/Owner Maz truly understand the essence of Anatolian flavours, and takes it a notch above the rest. Try their specials which tends to be seasonal.

Skewed is one of my husbands and my favourite local restaurants and is one we regularly visit! The food is high-end Turkish and is seriously good! The service is above average too - Gokan in particular is our favourite, he has always been the most attentive and is honestly one of the best waiters I’ve ever had!!
