Sunshine BBQ Restaurant in Shepway

Customary wonderful food together with exemplary, cheerful service. Starters (mixed maze and sauteed liver) were both superb and main courses (meaty including et sote) even better. Booze is keenly priced too.

Beautiful lunch very friendly i recommend to everyone staff very friendly and very good restaurant very good staff and great

Lovely restaurant, very nice polite staff. The food was very tasty, we had their lunchtime meal deal of three courses for £19.95, a real bargain. Well worth a visit.

Excellent food and drinks, the cocktails are the best around. Would 100% recommend this restaurant................

We really enjoyed the food in Sunshine in Hythe! All meals were super delicious! Atmosphere is really wonderful. People are lovely. Thanks to Rodica who advised us to taste something really special 😋 but all meals, drinks and desserts are absolutely perfect here. We came here for the second time and definitely will come again!

The food was incredible and the flavors were amazing! The staff were very friendly and attentive, even finding out that one of the chefs used to work in Norwich which is where we travelled from. We felt very welcome throughout, the food was came out quick and hot and the cocktails was amazing! If only it wasn’t so far from Norwich! Thank you for the free bday shot and cake!

We came here as a family of 5 for dinner on a Wednesday evening. At first the place was a little quiet but it was 6.30pm and it gradually filled up as the evening went on. This didn’t compromise service standards as they were excellent throughout. The food is great - I had the kofte plate which comes with a salad and rice - and we had hummus and halloumi for starters. Everything was really well cooked and presented superbly. We will definitely return.

Cocktails really good! However the food was like chewing on an old boot. The chicken was purple, I assume it’s chicken. The service was nice however a little pervy at times.

First visit even though we live locally. Very friendly helpful staff, very comfortable seating and our food was delicious, will definitely go back soon.

Came across the restaurant whilst traveling through the town and we were not disappointed. Excellent food and great service. If I lived local it is definitely the place I would frequent on a regular basis.

We ate here during a weekend away, and the whole experience was fantastic! We liked the atmosphere in the restaurant and enjoyed the comfy seats. The staff were really helpful, friendly, and great with gluten-free dietary requirements. Service was quick but we didn't feel at all rushed. The food was to die for! We will definitely return if we're back in the area in future 😁

Love the way this restaurant is kitted out and very comfortable banquette type seating, as well as usual table and chairs. Very welcoming and friendly and good food. We felt unhurried and were looked after very well indeed.

Very lovely atmosphere. I went in with my husband for dessert and cocktails since it was my birthday. We were really well looked after and the drinks hit the spot. I would love to go back again to taste the food.

Excellent all round. We were a group of ten aged from 5 to 80, and everyone found something they liked and enjoyed themselves. Food was excellent, service and ambience great. Highly recommended.

Excellent food and great value on the lunch menu. Good proportions for us, light starters, generous main courses and small dessert. Friendly, efficient and well-timed service. Obviously popular midweek lunch spot with locals. Will definitely return when in the area. A pity about the Efes "draft" in bottles, and no Turkish coffee offered...perhaps no demand?

Great turkish food. Relaxing atmosphere and friendly staff. Well worth a visit and great value for money

Came across this restaurant by chance great food and cocktails fantastic staff highly recommend this place will definitely be going back

Lovely place, cozy, lots of great dishes to try. We all tried different things, I loved the prawn pasta, my friends tried lamb and chicken. Everything was cooked to perfection. We had a sweetest waiter on our table Gorkem, very attentive to details, looked very well after us. Wishing him great success in his career. Cheers

First time at his lovely restaurant and did not disappoint. Lovely staff, excellent service and the meal was superb. We will be going back again soon.

I was in a party of nine celebrating a birthday. We were seated right by the windows to the kitchen. So we could see everything being prepared. I ordered a vegetarian meal but once the food was delivered to the table there was some confusion over which was which. I sat there while everybody else was tucking in while I pushed the food around the dish it was served in. I wasn't prepared to risk eating it, it looked the same as another persons meal which had lamb in it. While I sat shoving the contents of my plate around I watched the preparation in the kitchen. Everything was being cooked together, vegetables and meat. I was so glad I had obeyed my instincts and hadn't even tasted my meal. I said nothing because I didn't want to create a scene on a birthday celebration. It became even more difficult when staff started asking me if there was anything wrong with the meal. They meant well but it was putting me in a difficult position. If you are a vegetarian avoid this place.

Situated in the High Street, great location to watch the world go by. Decided on the set three course lunch ..... exceptional value for money. Many dishes to choose from. Food really tasty, service first class, staff attentive. Restaurant bustling and busy mid-week: says a lot.

We had the 3 course set lunch which had many dishes to choose from. My wife is a coeliac and has to have gluten free food, the restaurant couldn’t be more helpful talking her through her options of which there were a good number of choices. The food and service was excellent and we will certainly return the next time we are in Hythe.

Visited 7/7/2023 Amazing food and customer service liked the way they had pictures of the food your ordering on the menu as well excellent will definitely be returning.

Excellent service, food and cleanliness. Highly recommended. Served very quickly, food was hot and really tasty. Nice little service extra.

Dropped in and made use of lunchtime offer of three courses for around £17. A real good selection of starters and main courses available. The food was really nice - I definitely visit again if we weren't so far away. The restaurant is to a presentable standard while the toilets were something else. Clean with cloured lighting and music, like being in a disco. Worth going just for that.

Absolutely amazing food fantastic service brilliant not rushed. Definitely looking forward to going again

£6.20 for an extra little dish of chilli sauce was taking the p**s. Food average. Very overrated restaurant.

Really good food & cocktails with large selection. Couldn’t find our booking to start with but once all sorted very good service.

Food was excellent, also very quick and hot. Very good vibe. It was very busy when we were there. Cocktails were also very good and large.

Staff friendly, food was Absolutely fine, but for the price I would say there are better options in the town. I would probably visit again but not if it was my own choice

Just been for a family meal and as usual the food and service was so good. Just one thing I would say where we was seated was not the perfect place as very near the seating area where people can have drink. I would suggest...

Fab Turkish food with great atmosphere & lovely staff. Been a number of times & never disappointed. The starters are particularly good & most very authentic. I would like to see dolmades on menu !
