The Nazar Lounge in Bedford

Fantastic delivery driver very polite. Food was hot and beautifully packaged. Just needs to plate up . Comes in individual trays so amazing for a family meal or small party. Lots of food. Great choice. Calamari were beautiful. Absolutely perfect . Order with total confidence.

food arrived hot,great portion size. was my first time I ordered from here definitely will be ordering again. highly recommend.

Wrong delivery! How can I contact them??

Fantastic all round. What a super place. Went for lunch...starter and main £10. Good portions too Decor is spectacular also ..

Ordered food online and the food is overpriced for what it is. Very disappointing for the price we paid, food is nothing special

The deliveroo prices for this place are nuts - £27 for a single 'mixed grill' which came in a tiny box. What a scam

I visited the other day and they had great food and a nice interior. Waiters were also friendly and very helpful however the way they get treated is absolutely appalling by management and completely ruins the atmosphere as I do not want to be dining in this environment. It is always different employees serving me as no one wants to stay. I saw plenty of other reviews agreeing with me claiming that the establishment values money over their customers and own employees and how the boss is ill-mannered and greedy. It is such a shame as it is a nice place. I will return when they learn how to treat people fairly and with basic respect !!!

Good tasty food, reasonable prices and great service from our waiter Lucky

First time visiting Nazar and we couldn’t have had a nicer evening! Not only was the food delicious and very reasonably priced for the portion size but the service was excellent, our waiter was exceptional. My 11 year old loved his dessert suggestion!! Thank you ☺️

Was in Bedford for the day with my daughter and we was looking for somewhere nice to eat and I'm so glad I came across nazar lounge amazing service amazing food me and my daughter loved everything. Amazing accomdating staff. Amazing decor 10/10 highly recommend

The best Turkish I've ever had, everything in the mixed grill tasted fantastic, amazing service and great vibes with an in house singer!

Love a bit of Turkish food and it has to be the best food I've had in a long time. The service was again best I've had in a very very long time. I'm booking again for my birthday as it really was a perfect evening great food and great service 👌

Amazing meal! Fabulous service. Will be going back.

Fantastic service team, warm welcome from the moment we entered. This makes our experience all the more special when small touches like opening the door and immediate smiles are readily provided. The decor is special, gorgeous setting. And wow, the food was just incredibly tasty - grill meats are served tender and juicy, and they also served the best Ali Nazak I’ve ever had! Perfect for date nights, family get togethers etc - service is efficient and they’ll serve at your pace. Reading other reviews - we were not rushed at all. If you need more time, just ask. A perfect experience, thank you Team Nazar.

Went away to Bedford for a bank holiday weekend and was looking for some food to eat. Came across this restaurant and was blown away with the great hospitality from the staff. The atmosphere of the restaurant was amazing and my guy ozzy was an excellent staff member. Me and my wife got a small platter to share (Ozzy’s recommendation) and boy was it tasty. The meat was soft and succulent. It was also tender and not over powered with salt like other Turkish restaurants. Definitely a place to visit if you’re in the area. I’ll even say to people that are reading this, I’ll drive down from London, Tottenham just to come eat here again. Keep up the great food. This restaurant has got my respect

Such a disappointment. Went in for the lunch deal. Ordered starters and mains. Before we had even finished our starters the young waitress brought our mains. We asked why are they here already and she just walked off. The food was not what was stated on the menu and the food was inedible due to them giving us food we are allergic to. They recooked one of the dishes and refused to reheat the other dinner due to it being cold. We asked for a discount due to the errors and they took 30 mins to respond with a flat out no. Never going back there again!

Delicious food and lovely service

Ate here on Thursday evening and it was amazing, the food was delicious, the service was fantastic.

Amazing atmosphere professional management, you can taste the quality, highly recommended

On first impression, music playing lovely ambiance, table service so quick, but a little too quick , no time to choose drink of choice. Ordered drinks ok. Orderd starters i orderderd a cold starter that should have had grilled aubergine and yoghurt no sign of an aubergine, asked for bread to soak up yoghurt, never came as the were too busy trying to fill tables to compasity . Main course was a wait but thats fine. Lovely place , but need calm down service. Felt really rushed . But staff are amazing ...guys stop rushing people.. x

Lovely food, had a big group and can't believe how well they managed and timed the food and how delicious it was when it arrived. Great place!

Very good . Food awesome and staff superb

Disappointing poor quality frozen food served to us which was not even heated properly in microwave and the similar experience was shared by the people sitting two tables away from us ! And shamefully they even charged for that poor quality food Worst restaurant experience!

Was such a nice experience will come again, Success !

Certainly! Here’s a sample review for the Nazar Lounge: --- **Amazing Experience at Nazar Lounge!** I recently visited Nazar Lounge, and I have to say, it was an incredible experience from start to finish. The ambiance is both cozy and elegant, with beautiful decor that creates a warm and inviting atmosphere. Whether you’re looking for a place to relax after a long day or celebrate a special occasion, Nazar Lounge is the perfect spot. The menu offers a fantastic variety of dishes, blending traditional flavors with a modern twist. Every bite was a delight, but the [mention a standout dish or drink] was a true highlight – bursting with flavor and cooked to perfection. The drink selection is equally impressive, with a wide range of options to suit every taste. What really sets Nazar Lounge apart, though, is the service. The staff are friendly, attentive, and truly go above and beyond to make sure you have a great time. They’re knowledgeable about the menu and happy to make recommendations if you’re unsure what to choose. Overall, Nazar Lounge exceeded all my expectations. Whether you’re a local or just passing through, I highly recommend stopping by. You won’t be disappointed!

Had a great time. Waiters made the experience a million times better. They treated everyone in the restaurant with great customer service

Great food and service. Definitely the best Turkish food in Bedford. Nice ambience as well.

Nazaar lounge beautiful and calm. Ozzy and staff were all great and friendly. Food was 👌 great. Great service

Food was absolutely delicious- wonderful flavours and beautifully presented. Service was excellent, and the whole experience of dining at Nazar Lounge was a delight. I would highly recommend a visit!

We headed down to Nazar tonight to meet up with some friends. We absolutely love the atmosphere, lively and fun without being overbearing. The food is delicious traditional Turkish and full of flavour. Can't wait to head back to try the lunchtime deal.

Very plentiful tasty dishes. I highly recommend this place

Everything was good, service was good, food was good, they were generous with the bread which had the scent of the grill, mezzo was tasty, the only slight criticism I have is that I felt that £6.95 for a glass of beer was somewhat expensive. Otherwise, very good.

Came for lunch, everything was fantastic. Ozzy was amazing. This will be our go to restaurant. Absolutely love the place

Highly recommend this restaurant. Staff, atmosphere and food first class! ♡

Beware We were overcharged by the waiter Who was reluctant to give us our receipt Be carefull of the dodgy waiter Reply to establishment message My freinds have gone down to ur restaurant to speak to u face to face...u added extra items on our bills that we didn't order....

We were staying in the area last weekend and chose this restaurant close to our hotel - so glad we did!! The food was superb and service and atmosphere was excellent. All the staff looked after the 4 of us so well and we felt very welcome. Food was exceptional - we haven't stopped talking about it since!!! Genuinely one of the best meals out we have had in a very long time. If you are in the area this is a "must visit" restaurant!!

We love this restaurant, The owner is a great host. Food is always fresh and exceptional.

My first visit to Nazar, I was with a large group for a retirement party. We were at the back of the restaurant in a private area, perfect for a large gathering. The staff were friendly and attentive, great to see the chefs cooking in the open kitchen. The food and drinks came quickly. We had a fantastic meal, I had yoghurt chicken, absolutely delicious 😋 generous portions, Turkish tea and coffee to finish the meal. We had brought our own celebration cake. The restaurant was spotless, chairs very comfortable. Will definitely visit again ☺️

Visiting Bedford for the Silverstone Grand Prix and found this hidden gem where I had an amazing ali nazik and baklava. Highly recommend!

Great food, generous portions, friendly staff. It was my first visit after finding a voucher on Groupon and I was very impressed

Lovely welcome lovely decor a real hidden gem. With a lot of shish restaurants and takeaways it's very hard for these restaurants to really stand out from the rest. The Nazar Lounge really does stand out. Lovely decor and my partner and myself had a very warm welcome. It was quiet and the service was great perfect for a Sunday lunch. The lamb shish is the best lamb I've had melt in the mouth stuff

My second visit, and I was not disappointed thank you for a lovely evening

Wow, by chance, we walked into Nazar Lounge a few weeks ago on a Sunday. It was our first time in a Turkish restaurant and we were thoroughly impressed with our evening. The food was excellent quality, well presented, tasty and plentiful. The staff and management were very helpful and friendly, Ozzy was a charm!! The atmosphere was calm and peaceful, plenty of space between tables so you didnt feel crowded.the complimentary schnapps was a bonus, so thank you.Next time we're in Bedford we will certainly visit again.

Perfect food every order. Best Turkish in the area

Fantastic Came here for the lunch menu. Lovely food and because they had a big party the night before they had a little bit of hoovering to do and because we had a baby with us they gave us a drink each on the house for noise! which we wasn't phased by it was a very nice gesture! we cannot wait to return ! thank you

Was well looked after by a waiter named Lucky. Food was delicious 😋

Nazar is our new go to restaurant for date night. It's a stylish restaurant and the atmosphere is great. The food is so lovely and the cocktails are to die for !

Always great experience with ordering with Nazar. The best Turkish restaurant in Bedford

Ozzy is fantastic, he has a great knowledge of the menu and looks after your needs throughout the dinning experience. I’ve really enjoyed my lunches at Nazar Lounge and will continue to enjoy spending time at this amazing restaurant.

Family dinner for Father's day. Excellent 👍🏿

Although it appeared the delivery was made early, the expected time for delivery kept changing (becoming delayed) after the order. In the end it was not as delayed as indicated and the food was good.

Cannot fault anything. The food was delicious and the service was excellent

Amazing food fantastic service and the atmosphere first class try this restaurant you won't regret it

The welcome we experienced at the Nazar lounge was exceptional, providing us with an absolutely brilliant Sunday evening meal. We enjoyed trying foods that are new to us, along with dishes with which we're more familiar. The lamb and chicken were gently spiced and tender, the lamb's liver starter an inventive take on an old favourite, the salads were freshly prepared rather than dished out of a packet and the portion size generous. The staff are to be commended on their helpful, friendly approach - their pace of work was discreetly purposeful and it was clear their aim was to make sure our evening was the best it can be. I'm so jealous of people who live nearby - for us this was a first visit but we hope to be back. Congratulations to all, behind the scenes and front of house.

I have to say this is by far the best place to eat healthy ,fresh ,tasty food in Bedford great value and if your lucky enough to be looked after by Ozzie you will love. Thanks for a great meal

Superb Turkish restaurant, amazing and tasty food along with friendly staff. Next level unlocked, food was something else. Thank you guys for the excellent service and special attention received. Coming back for sure. The sharing platter is a must!

The best restaurant in Bedford!

Fast and friendly service nice and clean surroundings, some of the best garlic and chilli prawns and the kleftiko was fab but only one criticism it came with mash and carrots and was expecting Mediterranean vegetables ie pepper and onions tomatoes I will definitely be back and recommend

Authentic, fresh and tasty food.

The meals and appetizers were both very diverse and delicious. Me and my wife have a gourmet palate and this place offered us an oasis from heaven ❤️ This will be the only place we will go to when we come to Bedford every week. (I think it should get a Michelin star) the food is great, the ambience of the place is great and we would also like to thank the staff, they were very attentive, especially Ozzy, he made us feel like at home. Our son gave an arrow 👍👍

This is the Best restaurant we have ever been. Everything was so delicious. Staff are also really friendly. I can absolutely recommend this restaurant. There is nothing we didn't like.10/10

Food was delicious & plentiful, lovely decor & extremely friendly & courteous staff. Best Turkish Restaurant in town!

Overpriced. Nothing to write home about. Baba ganoush was laden with yogurt and extra bread was outrageously charged.

Food always 10/10 and staff always going the extra mile. Perfect dining experience and for sure best Turkish in town

Very good food and service ..expensive because quality comes with cost

The atmosphere is serene, and the staff is incredibly kind. I would highly recommend it. 👌

Seafood salad was amazing, best wishes to the chef!!! Service is brilliant. A+++ restaurant!

Excellent service, food was amazing and it came quickly, hot and ready. Highly recommend!

Beautifully tasty authentic Turkish food with impeccable friendly service. Nothing was too much trouble and Ozzy was such a patient and attentive waiter. Thank you.

Meat platter very tasty dish with four types of meat. I recommend visiting the restaurant

Great food, lovely staff and a great night, we will be back.

My friend and i decided to go out for a nice meal. So we decided to visit Nazar due to their beautiful interior decor, silly reason i know. I regret it now looking back. I have been to various Turkish resturant and this is the worst of them all. Food was bland, soggy rice etc, My friend spent the evening in the toilet from the mixed grill she had. I am glad we ordered different food, I would have suffered too. The service was nothing to write home about either. I do not recommend this place. Absolute joke.

I was with my friend today for lunch here.The food was disgusting.We ordered lamb ribs and was very oily. My friend ordered chicken shish for takeaway and they didn’t put salad or any sauce just chips and two small pieces of bread. The service wasn’t so good and they even charged us £9 for the service. So disappointed

Absolutely 5 star all the way!! What can I say Levent you made it fabulous for Rene'e Christening family gathering on Sunday 21st April. To be let down at the last minute by the Kingfisher Hotel 4 days before event which was all paid for in Feb, to be told its been doubled booked!! Was devastating I was heart broken and beside myself what to do. "But when calling up Nazar lounge to see if you can cater last minute for 18 family members" Ozzy you was my Angel 😇 I must say as the manager you took control and made me feel 💯 better, when you said don't worry we will make it happen. And you went above and beyond for Rene'e Christening Event with seating and the arrangements with Balloons Cakes and the whole layout. The food was Exceptional my family enjoyed absolutely everything. Atmosphere was brilliant fabulous day. You truly made my Granddaughters day a very Special one.!! Ozzy your worth your weight in Gold xx Levent as the owner I thank you for catering last minute. And allowing this to happen I wish you nothing but the very best. It was a Wonderful Day and would highly recommend Nazar Lounge to be the best over the rest absolutely. Many Blessing to you and all your staff 🙏 Kindest regards Amanda x

Booked ahead with a large group but turned up with three extra. Staff were amazing, all no problem. Food superb. Best yet they now will take Bitcoin as well as pounds! 10/10

absolutely delicious food. perfect presentation. will most definitely order again. delivery driver was very friendly.

Excellent food, portions and even better service, highly recommend!!

great restaurant very good very nice very good very nice very good very nice

Excellent food and service. Had the lunch offer £10.90 for two delicious courses. The 4 of us all really enjoyed our food. Our second time here in a week will definitely be coming back 😊😋😋

Beautiful restaurant, comfy chairs, good vibe great service, and delicious food. The staff were super welcoming and kind. I had the baba ganoush, (the bread that came with it was lightly grilled on the charcoal grill which made it soooo good), the grilled halumi with spicy Turkish sausage (if you like spicy ask for their home made chilli sauce), rack of lamb. That charcoal grill flavour just can’t be beat and the meat was super tender. I finished it off with an amazing pistachio cake. I will definitely be returning before my trip is done.

First time dining here yesterday. Food is amazing, service impeccable and portions are reasonable. I’m from Birmingham so will definitely be coming back. Ozzy was our host, fab guy so polite and recommended the best!

My 2nd meal here and it was even better than the first. I had a meat platter and it was out of this world. I visited with my daughters and they loved their choices, a chicken and lamb combo and sebzelic guvec, both said they were full of flavour and loved evey mouthful. All for great value too. The waiter Ozzy is on another level, super friendly, helpful and smiling the whole time, making the evening even more enjoyable. I highly recommend this place and will 100% be back soon.

100% recommended! Food and services outstanding!

Lovely lunch at this delightful restaurant Nice stylish decor and spotlessly clean (loos included) good layout & ample seating Great food & drinks menus that offer deals most days (except Saturdays) Delicious, tasty and well presented dishes. We plumbed for a selection of firm favourites and also received complementary side dishes. Tender lamb & chicken and creamy hummus. Thanks to the staff who were delightful which rounded off a lovely Sunny day trip to Bedford

Wonderful food. Great atmosphere, would recommend! Visited on many occasions!

Wonderful service and the food was amazing - certainly be back!

Both main dishes were missing the rice side. The stuffed vine leaves were replaced by something else with no prior notice. Otherwise food was good.

Excellent food, great value for money and the customer service was of a really high standard. Will definitely visit again.

Been coming to Nazar for years, great food and service. Ozzi in particular is so friendly and always takes time to chat and make sure we are well looked after.

Very nice food indeed with unbeatable attentive service from all the staff. We will be going again!

On a warm Monday afternoon we were looking for somewhere for lunch. Wow, we could not have picked a more amazing place. The friendliness and service was outstanding! The food was out of this world and superb value for money. Fabulous experience, well worth a visit. Ozzy was a great host and character.

There's nothing like breaking the tiresome routine from time to time and we felt like visiting this Turkish restaurant today and have lunch. I can sum up my review and say everything was excellent, from second one a very attentive and friendly waiters, a lunch menu I can recommend unreservedly. I tried lamb kleftiko and my wife had chicken for seconds and taramasalata and baba ghanoush for starters, absolutely delicious. The desserts were to die for look at the photos. I could not help it and we had the full selection to try, I cannot recommend one in particular, all of them were outstanding. Give yourself a treat.

Been coming to Nazar for over a decade. Best Turkish food by a mile and great service every time from Ozzy and the team. 👍🏻🔥

Amazing meal. All the family, from 13 years to 44 years, loved it. I would highly recommend.

We celebrated my sons 40th birthday here. Levent and the team were amazing - nothing was too much trouble. We all massively enjoyed the food, the ambience and the service. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this restaurant.

Had the most lovely meal with lovely service from the team at Nazar, Ozzy was superb, a great people pleaser and thanks to Levent and his beautiful new additions to the table….very chic x

Quite disappointed considering this restaurant appears very highly reviewed. We ordered for collection from the Nazar Lounge via Just Eats. I found the food quality to be below average with an excessive amount of salt in comparison to the local competitors. The server handed our food and instructed “next time you want to order takeaway, call us so we don’t have to pay the just eats fee”… A thank you for our custom would have been better appreciated haha, we will not be returning!

Fabulous evening! Great food and wonderful staff. Our second time - and we will be back..

The best place for Turkish food. To top it off the staff is delightful. All the dishes were so fresh, they gave us complimentary dips and olives. Good portions. Wonderful collections of cocktails. We ended our meal with a pistachio cake. They offered us baileys strawberry on the house for our anniversary. Would highly recommend a visit. Apparently it’s cheaper by more than half to go for lunch than dinner. A 29£ plate would be roughly 11£ only. Did I mention how beautiful the interiors are?

Wow! I don’t often take the time to leave a review but this restraunt was so exceptional I felt I had too. I booked A table for two here on Mother’s Day, The staff made you feel really well and were very attentive. My mum and I both agreed the food was the best Turkish food with ever had And was so impressed with the taste and quality of the dishes. I will definitely be returning here, what amazing restaurant
