We ordered a takeaway meal this evening which I collected, but unfortunately we were left feeling very disappointed and being as the food is not exactly cheap i’m afraid to say that my liver dish and the mixed meat shish dish was over cooked and dry even the rice.

Simply the best restaurant we have ever dined in, "World class". Every dish on the menu is superb. Competitively priced with complimentary bread and dips to start, then cooked and served by the friendliest staff anyone could wish to meet, all have become good friends. Long may it reign as the finest reataurant in a very wide area.

Omg everything about this restaurant is absolutely superb. Have been many times before for an evening meal but tried the new lunchtime special menu a few days ago. As it’s a set price I wondered if it wouldn’t be as good, or be a tiny portion. Boy oh boy was I wrong! Everything was just as delicious, the portions were certainly not small and the service was as wonderful as ever. Special thanks to Natalia for being so helpful and attentive, and for having such a happy, smiley manner. What a treat!

Was staying in the nearby Lifehouse Spa, just happened to drive past and liked the look of the restaurant. WOW I'm so glad we went in the staff were all super friendly from the office. Was seated immediately even though no booking was made. I've had a fair few Turkish meals and this was miles better than anything I've ever had previously. The warm bread was plentiful and along with the most tastiest chilli sauce/ garlic mayo and olives a lovely start!. We opted to share a starter hich was the creamy garlic mushrooms which didn't disappoint, huge portion good for 2 with the bread. Both had our favourite dish which was Chicken Betyi. Stunning food and again a huge portion. Not sure what dressing they put on the salad but it was amazing. 1 pint of efes, diet coke, mushroom starters and 2 huge Betyi's £44. Amazing value. Met the owner, lovely man. We live in Wickford an hour away but honestly we will return. Thank you

Natalia was our server and was so informative and helpful as well as prompt and friendly! The food was absolutely impeccable and it came out in a timely manner. 10/10 would recommend the platter for two (there was seven of us, they made enough for all of us, also the meze and the bread was top tier. The atmosphere was great, especially as it was my granddaughter's birthday (the whole place sang happy birthday to her) it was a perfect ending to a busy day experiencing Walton on Naze.

I have visited the Lara many times with family, friends and neighbours, both dining in and take away, and always the food and service has always been excellent. Super friendly staff. This is not a just a posh kebab house but an excellent Turkish restaurant and take away don't be fooled it this is quality and great portion sizes as well. Myself, family, friends and neighbours all love the food and feels like your getting a meal at great value. Sometimes we even might get a bonus rice pudding or cold meze :-) thank you! I can't recommend this restaurant enough when anyone asks. Also they carter for my Gluten free requirements as well and I feel safe when I order. My personal fave dish is the chicken kebab with Yogurt! by Mr John

We love it here so much and come here to get a takeaway once a month or so for a treat. My partner goes and picks up and the staff inside treat him like royalty! We usually get the Set 1 Platter, and the ribs and the chops are absolutely incredible - I'm also a big fan of the couscous too! My partner loves the wings, they fall off the bone and are so tender and flavourful. I'm pregnant and crave salad, and their Shepard's Salad hits the spot like nothing else 🤤 sometimes we also treat ourselves to a rice pudding to share, and it is always delicious, with little bits of orange inside, yum. We really think that it's an absolute gem, and wish everyone would try it - we only moved here in January and it's our absolute favourite. Thank you guys for another fantastic meal (the olives in the Shepard's salad tonight were just amazing!)
