Nice atmosphere and food is tasty. We loved the seasoning combinations! They promo 5-6 dishes per couple which can be too much. It would make more sense to us to say starters and mains rather than smaller and larger plates. Smaller plates at tabure look like generous starters and larger plates look like smaller mains! Requested to substitute one of the trio dips with another, only to get a big "NO"

We enjoyed restaurant standard food ( and service) for 13 people as takeaway. It was a special occasion and we wanted to relax and eat at home, but not have the hassle of cooking for a big and diverse group. Eddie and Gul took account of multiple needs (allergies especially) including suggesting ideas to tempt the children in the group. Everything was ready to collect as ordered and went straight to the table. The food was delicious and we look forward to eating in the restaurant in person again soon.

The restaurant looked fancy and the menu looked promising, but unfortunately the food didn't match the expectations. It tasted like the chef accidentally seasoned everything twice. It was borderline edible and we left some of the food, because it was too salty and oily for us to finish it. Both deserts we tried were good though.

We were recommended this restaurant by some friends. We arrived at the restaurant and our initial greeting was good. Shown to the table, the head waiter explained how the menu worked, sharing dishes if you like or large plate for yourself. We ordered our food, when the dishes arrived the young waitress did not know what dishes she was serving us and took one of our plates and cutlery. The food was well presented and tasted delicious. When we asked for the bill it was literally thrown on the table and the young waitress just walked away. We had to ask the head waiter to pay. We informed him how the bill was presented to us and seemed very apologetic, however he returned very quickly with the card machine for us to pay. This let us feeling very disappointed with the service at this restaurant. I would NOT recommend this restaurant for the dining experience as there are many others restaurants with far better customer service. I really wanted to give this restaurant more stars but felt it was right to share our experience.

Easily the best Turkish food I’ve had! Everything was so tasty and unique to try. Staff are very friendly (shout out to Abraham who has been great every time we’ve been), and while the price is high for St Albans restaurants, the quality of the food and drink fit the bill. If I had to critique, I’d say the view from the window is bad. A brick wall, commercial bins, and white flood lights aren’t particularly the vibe. Perhaps the restaurant will put up a curtain in the future (or may have done since I last went). Highly recommend!

How often do you get a perfect restaurant experience? Tabure delivered one for me and my family: a warm welcome that was heartfelt and authentic, ambiance that made us feel instantly comfortable, a menu that was diverse yet balanced with something for everyone, service that was friendly and attentive. And finally ....the food? Each plate was more delicious than the previous. Incredibly yummy and satisfying. When the bill came I was happy to pay because it was worth every single penny. When was the last time you experienced that in a restaurant?

We were due to come to the restaurant tonight but unfortunately one of the party was unwell and we cancelled by email at 2:11pm. No one acknowledged my email and the next thing I knew we had been charged £40 as a no-show fee. I called the restaurant to explain and I was completely dismissed by the lady who answered the phone boarding on rude. Didn’t want to listen to me at all and kept saying restaurant policy. Surely there should be some exemptions!!! Such a shame as it would have been our 2nd visit as we enjoyed it so much the first time thought we would come back. However after this I will certainly not be coming back again.

When I called them to challenge my unfair charge, the lady told me she did sent me email to ask me confirm our booking.But the truth is I NEVER receive any reminder by email to ask to confirm booking, otherwise I will definitely click it .Also we presume the restaurant already got our cancellation message.So it's really unfortunate for us to get 20 quid penalty charge .I'm sure the restaurant definitely filled up the slot that night.

I usually doubt a place that’s almost 5*, however since visiting, I completely get it. The place is unbelievable, the aesthetics are just *chefs kiss*. On top of that the food is unbelievable. Between two of us we ordered one large plate, one small plate, one side and a bread and dip and it was absolutely enough. We also finished with a desert which I wish I could eat everyday. Every dish was presented well and tasted sublime. £70 for two people including a drink each and service. It’s definitely a more luxury place, but worth it for a treat.

Booked to have dinner here with friends who unfortunately had to cancel due to testing positive for COVID on the day of the meal. Contacted the restaurant by phone and email as soon as we were notified (6.5 hours before our table booking) stating we would rebook but nobody from the restaurant bothered to contact us. Within 30 mins of my email my credit card had been charged a £40 no show fee yet their terms and conditions state they will “only charge if no notice is given.” I called the restaurant back to complain and said we would try and find some other friends to come with us and still attend if they wouldn’t refund the money. The manager was supposed to call me back within 30 mins but never did. Very dishonest management with appalling customer service and no consideration for sudden illness. This restaurant would prefer people who are ill still attend rather than assist them in rebooking. We would definitely have rebooked once our friends were well again but now I wouldn’t give this restaurant water if they were on fire. Awful place. Stay well away.

It was an extremely wet Tuesday night and the centre of St. Albans was deserted, so we were relieved to see a decent number of diners at Tabure on arrival. There is a nice ambience at this spacious restaurant, with its subdued lighting and muted colours. We shared tasty cheese fondue and grilled aubergine with tahini and garlic dips to start - they were flavoursome and served with some excellent pita bread. My sea bream wrapped in vine leaves main was perfectly cooked and presented with "smacked" cucumber. All the side vegetable dishes are served with added ingredients and dressings - we had sweet potatoes and spinach. They were fine with the plain fish but there might have been rather too many flavour competing with each other had I chosen one of the more spicy mains. There are some interesting options on the short wine list and we enjoyed the bone-dry Verdejo wine we chose. Service from all three staff who attended to us was excellent.

We were very careful to research times before coming out. Both Google and THE DOOR of the restaurant say “Sundays - closed 22:00”. We arrived at 20:44 to be told by a very unfriendly staff member that they were closed. Apparently, the kitchen closes 90 minutes before close (at a restaurant??) which is ridiculous.

Tabure offers something quite unique, the cuisine is a cross between Turkish, Mediterranean, Middle Eastern, with hints of British flavours and all encompassed in a relaxed, fine-dining environment. Particular highlights were the Aubergine Kumpir, Sultan's Risotto and the Cyprus Potatoes. Exceptional food and presentation, however, the jewel in the crown, really is the service and that, from the manager, Gul. She went out of her way to make us feel welcome as we were celebrating a special occasion and nothing was a problem for her and her team; she even looked after our daughter and kept her busy/entertained! Very much look forward to coming back and trying the rest of what the menu has to offer and meeting the team once again. Our only regret is that we did not find Tabure any sooner.

Incredible cuisine and service. Easily my favourite restaurant in St Albans and superb for vegetarians. Eclectic flavours fused together with tremendous heart and soul. High quality ingredients and twists on recognizable dishes through which they have upped the ante. Wonderful team who have always been incredibly hospitable and warm whenever we have been - they even remembered some of our prior conversations after a couple months of not having visited - a mark of people who care and that are genuine. Many thanks and recognition should go to the host manager, Gul, and those who took us on the culinary journey Agil and Milena, to name a few. Standout dishes: Fava bean hummus (gorgeous freshly baked pita) Labneh Aubergine kumpir (surprisingly delicious) Cyprus potatoes (what superb and technically outstanding potatoes!)

Menu with complex flavors. Modern revisitation of Turkish cuisine. Fabulous. Two negative notes: for that price I expected at least tablecloths, in European and Mediterranean style. Not the unhygienic British one where the cutlery is placed directly on the table. Furthermore, if they make you eat at the counter in front of the chef who prepares the dishes, they should reduce the price.

Staff were super helpful in helping us choose dishes and really attentive whilst still giving us a relaxed eating experience. Having a grill in view of the dining area is a great plus.

The service was good and the atmosphere was all right, the seats by the grill lack a bit but overall was ok. The food however was not really what I expected. The kofte’s texture felt a bit hard and too compacted, with a strange mixture of herbs and didn’t remind the ones I’ve had in the past. We also had a stake that, although was not done medium as requested, but rather rare, it was quite good. The sides & starters were again nothing impressive.

This place is trying to tackle some misconceptions about Turkish cuisine. You cannot find classic kebab dishes that are usually being served outside Turkiye. They serve some traditional Turkish dishes with a modern twist. The food is absolutely delicious and the service is very friendly.

For those who have never been here, Tabure is nothing like your average Turkish restaurant. The cuisine is delicate and the cooking is sophisticated and progressive. The vine-wrapped sea bream is always my favourite dish of theirs - it's something I've never had elsewhere - cooked to perfection - just so unusual and lovely. If there's a slight negative at Tabure it's with the service where there's a feeling that they're trying hard to push you to order certain dishes and/or that they're trying to push you to order quite a lot. Yes they're busy and they need to maximise each service, but it's not a great long term strategy. I would suggest resisting such pressures and just ordering only what you want but in any case the food speaks for itself.

Tabure is a fantastic, family-run restaurant with something for everyone. While more expensive than some higher end chains nearby, the value for money is manifest in great ingredients, curated and balanced dishes cooked excellently, and good Mediterranean wines. Whenever I'm in St. Albans, it will be my first choice for dinner.

Great food. The waitress a bit too sassy; she blamed us for every mistake she made. But the food was so great that it’s worth putting up with her.

Absolutely stunning food, I'd eat here everyday if I could. Try as much as you can. The artichoke was amazing.

This is the third local Turkish restaurant we have been to in the last two weeks and am happy to report that Tabure comes out top. Greeted by Gul on arrival we were immeadiately made to feel welcome, an emotion thatcontinued throught our meal. Gul helped with our selection, recommended the wine, which was a good choice. We had the house meze dips to start, all three very tasty and sensible proportions. We then shared the lamb tower, an extreamly tasty dish although the lamb was on the tough side but very edible, just slightly overcooked for my taste. We also had the tuna tartar and a side portionof rice, again highly recommended. Gul then convinedd my wife to try their Baclava, which I was forced to try (sic) and very glad I did. To finnish we had probably the tastyest fresh mint tea ever. We have been here before some years ago and will certainly not leave it so long before returning again. Thank you Gul and the team at Tabure St Albans.

Pretty good! Food was nice, service was good, wasn't too expensive and nice surroundings. You do have to queue up so be aware of this but there is a car park.

Visit this shop on a weekly basis with the family for take away - the staff are always so polite and friendly! The food is good value for money and plentiful! Nice to see them remaining open during lockdown whilst following the social distancing!
