Yaprak Restaurant Locks Heath in Fareham

A good experience with Yaprak Food 5/5: Everything was quick, fresh and very tasty. We tried the hot platter for a starter - the Mucver and the Muska Boregi was absolutely delicious. (It was quite a big portion for a starter so we ended up taking the mains home, because we couldn't eat more.) As a main I had the Goat Cheese Salad. I was very pleased with it. So many restaurants don't care about offering / creating healthier options. I'm glad they do. My boyfriend chose the Lamb Shish dish with Yoghurt Sauce. He loved it. Service: 5/5 Our waiter- and the service overall -was exceptionally good. Hygiene: 5/5 Restroom/ tables, cutlery was clean and tidy. Atmosphere 3/5 The restaurant is too small for that many tables. It was a friday evening so it was understandably busy but it was too noisy to have a conversation (even words). It was too crowded, too overstimulating to me personally.

First class restaurant. Excellent food, service (and really lovely toilets!). Can't recommend highly enough.

Wonderful food, well presented. Huge portions. We've had to ask for take-away boxes once when we couldn't finish a shared starter platter and one main course each. Same for a take-away meal delivered to home; enough for four of us plus left overs to snack the next day. Choices of meals is great, lits to choose from. Cooking and flavours seem exceptional. Pricey but worth it.

Annette fab service . Great time. Well worth the money

Just go and find out how amazing this place is yourself you will not be disappointed

We visited for the first time this evening , really cool little gem of a place , very comfy , very nice staff and the food was excellent 😀 will be a regular visitor here in the future

What a wonderful experience on my birthday. We have never tried a Turkish restaurant, so on my birthday I suggested we try one out. We chose Yaprak because of the reviews and OMG, we made the best decision! Service was excellent and swift, food was absolutely delicious and we were looked after by Annette, who was a marvellous host! I will visit with some girl friends and definitely with my family again.

Beautiful food, wonderful service. Amazing to have such a quality restaurant in the shopping centre. Portion size is perfect. Plenty of food to eat and the quality of cooking is high! Thanks guys!

Been meaning to go for a while. Finally went for a bottomless brunch for wife's birthday. Food was really good, tasty and quick. Cocktails were made with care and attention, unlike some other bottomless brunches we have been to. £35 each, no hidden extras and the staff are excellent.

Had a takeaway from here this evening food was absolutely outstanding. Usually a takeaway differs from the standard in the restaurant not so for Yaprak it felt like restaurant food served at home! I had the vegetarian moussaka and loved it my husband can recommend the Mixed Shish and my son the Iskender everyone thoroughly enjoyed it. Many Thanks we will be back!

Great Turkish restaurant. Food excellent. Recommend the set lunchtime menu, really good value.

First visit to Yaprak today and definitely not the last. We had the lunchtime set menu. Good value for money and great food 👌

For 5, different foods, all very good, friendly waiter, very nice decor, tables also outdoors

Being a foodie, this food is incredible. The meat was tender and so juicy. I would highly recommend 👌

Delicious food and fantastic cocktails. We all ordered different dishes and all thought our meals were exceptional. We highly recommend Yaprak and will definitely be back.

Amazing foot. Closest food you can get as kebab. If not, they are the best so far. Very friendly and helpful staff. Highly recommend.

Very good food and good atmosphere I’m a regular

My husband and I love going on cocktail afternoons, this is by far the best place we have been to! Coupled with great food and friendly service 10/10 😊

Went here last night, as I’d been told about this restaurant by family and friends - and it didn’t disappoint- the grilled chicken and lamb dishes were delicious and tender.- Really worth the visit- and will recommend.

Looks pricey, but wait till you taste the food!! Absolutely amazing! The lamb was the best lamb I have ever tasted, big tender chunks with no fat and sooo tender and juicy. They definitely use top quality ingredients. Friendly and helpful staff as well, whats not to like!

Absolutely incredible food and service. Went for lunch which was £15 for two courses which is great value. Will definitely be going back many times. Service was brilliant too, nothing too much trouble.

Had a lovely meal with family and friends to celebrate a friends birthday. The atmosphere was very celebration oriented, and staff were welcoming and efficient at ensuring everyone enjoyed themselves. Even the chef joined in to celebrate the birthday cake presentations by dancing along :-)

We had a bottomless brunch up there for my daughter birthday wot a fantastic time we had they could not do enough for us the food was fantastic the staff was brilliant and they all joined in to sing happy birthday would definitely recommend this place to every one we will definitely be back again thank u so much

Great place to eat - fresh healthy food - good choice, something for everyone even the fussy eaters - this was my 3rd visit to the restaurant and each time it’s a faultless service always great food and good value - the waiter was fantastic. 👌

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Yaprak for the first time, and it was an exceptional experience. The food was excellent—each dish was tasty, fresh, and perfectly prepared. From the succulent lamb chops to the flavorful freshly prepared salad, every bite was a delight. The service was equally impressive. The staff were attentive, friendly, and made sure that we had everything we needed throughout our meal. The atmosphere was serene and quiet, providing the perfect setting for an enjoyable evening.

Went for an evening bottomless brunch. Great choice and quality of food and the cocktails in the brunch were varied and very enjoyable!!! The service was quick and friendly. Would highly recommend here as was a lovely clean restaurant with good atmosphere

What a gem! We were greeted and served by very friendly staff. The place is beautifully decorated with lots of plush comfortable seating. We went for the all day bottomless deal and enjoyed trying out their amazing cocktails. Each one was presented beautifully and tasted amazing. The flat breads and sauces were delicious. My meat moussaka was very tasty and was served with a side of rice and salad. My friends said their meals were delicious as well. Please support them, we need good restaurants like this to thrive so we can all enjoy them for years to come. Highly recommend.

Best place locally! Food made fresh, served hot, and amazingly delicious. Best place I have eaten in in a long time, not many places to compare. 10/10 Service has been excellent. Would definitely recommend!

Very good food , staff could not have been more helpful and cocktails & prosecco in abundance. Great afternoon will definitely return.

Really fantastic authentic Turkish food and really reasonably priced

Good selection of food of a very high quality. Very good service. I can highly recommend it. I am going there again this week.

We had a delicious lunch at Taprak today. The home made dessert was a delight. A warm welcome from staff too.

Got takeaway so don't know about atmosphere, but food amazing & so much of it struggled to finish. Highly recommended

Great food, excellent range of choice, staff were great.. excellent & fun evening

Absolutely amazing experience. Fantastic atmosphere, fantastic service, Fantastic food. What more could you want. Authentic Turkish cuisine. Highly recommend,will definitely be going back.

Lovely food, fabulous service, great atmosphere. Our first time here,but it won't be the last.Thank you all at Yaprak for a lovely evening. 😊

You won't find your fingers. Because you will eat them

The food is really nice and delicious. Hygienic environment. Kebabs are our primary choice.

Went to Yapeak tonight and was really impressed. The food was incredibly delicious and didn't over fill us and was partnered really well with a cheeky cocktail. We will definitely go back to be trying the rest of the menu

Busy Friday night and a disaster. Waited ages for our food after telling the waitresses three times. They then told us they wanted the table back in 30 minutes...what? It was my wife's birthday and we were expecting something special...it wasn't. To top it all they took the tables both sides of us for a party table and left us precariously on our own. Enough was enough and we got up and left hungry. In today's tough hospitality climate this restaurant needs to do a lot better or it will close.

Popped in for a light lunch and had a delightful feast! The lunchtime menu had a great choice and we had a beautiful selection of dishes. The staff were polite and attentive, and our food was served quickly. Will definitely return again.

Excellant! Delicious food, good service, friendly and comfortable. Recommended.

Best place for someone likes meats! Always so many vegan opinions

Birthday with friends and my first visit. Very friendly and accommodating staff. Asked to move table, no problem. Extensive menu. Excellent starters but my main meal was very disappointing. Moussaka was lacking in meat and very bland. Nevertheless our other two mains were, by all accounts very good. We choose Friday evening but if you are looking for a quiet meal it’s not the night to go, raucous table of young men didn’t help. However, I’d certainly return, just not the same night.

First visit. Loved the food, pleased it wasn’t super spicy. Will be back. Ate Saturday lunch time so not very busy. Super staff too.

What a fantastic meal in Yaprak. We often travel to turkey and crave authentic Turkish cuisine. Yaprak certainly gave us a feel like we were in turkey. The taste and feel of being in turkey is amazing. The staff and hosts are very accommodating and the food is amazing. Thank you Yaprak.

I came here last night with work mates and it didn't disappoint. The food was amazing and the atmosphere is so good. All the staff are so friendly and helpful. I wanted a baileys cocktail but there wasn't one on the menu but they made me one and it was so nice. I plan on going back with my husband because I know he will love the food. Try it out cos you won't be disappointed. Wish I could give them 10 star review because they deserve it. Thank you Yaprak and see you again soon.

Delicious I recommend it for everyone

Food is ok but made up for by the great atmosphere.

it doesn't get any better than this

Wow! Fantastic in every aspect! From the initial welcome to the goodbye at the end of the night, truly amazing people and place to eat!

Food and service were both amazing. Liz was polite and friendly. This restaurant is a little out of the way but is well worth a visit.

1st experience of Yaprak for a takeaway, had to wait longer than expected for food as restaurant was very busy and when sat down to eat, the food was like warm at best. Expected much better but left very disappointed.

Had a lovely lunch here today. Tried the two course set menu and it did not disappoint. Lovely food and plenty of it. Will definitely go again.

This is the best restaurant I have been to for as long as I can remember. The food is absolutely amazing & cooked to perfection. The atmosphere & staff make it such an enjoyable experience. I am always recommending Yaprak to my family & friends for the most delicious food & cocktails and the best time. When I’ve come with my friends everyone has loved the food and had a brilliant night . 😃👌 Food is absolutely amazing, cocktails are 10/10 The atmosphere and staff are so welcoming, friendly and entertaining. The whole experience is worth every penny. For a great evening out I would definitely recommend Yaprak.

Fabulous food, great cocktails and lovely staff. Would highly recommend but you must book. Will definitely return.

Went for lunch, lovely food ,wonderful atmosphere, and staff x

This is undoubtedly the best Turkish restaurant we’ve eaten at in the UK, not only was the food EXCEPTIONAL, the staff were faultless, massive shout out to Liz & Henry (I hope I got the names right) we can’t wait to come back!

Visited on 13th Jan for my Birthday - everything was excellent. We all enjoyed brilliant food - and very friendly staff. I cannot wait to return will try Lunch next time

Amazing food and service. 100% going back!!!!!!

I used to be a casual customer, but no longer from today due to poor customer service from a person that I think he is the "manager". Whilst, I was waiting for four (4) customers to leave the restaurant so I can come in, the manager was opening the door for them, with a smiley face and thanking them for being there. The manager and I made eye contact whilst he was opening the door for these four (4) customers, and saw me I was waiting for them to leave so I can come in, so the manager KNEW WELL that I wanted to come in the restaurant, unfortunately, the moment I was about to come in, he shut the door in my face!! And did hurry to the counter! Then, when I opened the door to come in, the manager came back to me. I asked him whether he did not see me coming in? He was not bothered to respond nor apologise! I just turned a blind eye and asked for my collection. The funniest thing, when I paid for the food, the manager did not even say 'thank you'! And he was in hurry to deliver my food! Pathetic!! Customers those sitting next to the door saw what happened and how the manager shut the door in my face, they were shocked from this manager's behaviour! It seems there are some requirements that customers need to meet in order to be treated respectfully! I will no longer order from this place, and make sure my two (2) friends who used to order from here will also not order. I DO NOT RECOMMEND!

Food and service is excellent. Lunch deal is very good value. The only reason that atmosphere is marked down is because on both of the occasions that we attended was at lunchtime where there were fewer people.

Birthday dinner with family. 2adults and 2kids share the House special which includes cold mezze platter and mixed grill kebabs. Food is fabulous. Warm welcome and good service by houseman. Busy Saturday night but not in rush atmosphere. Highly recommended.

Lesley and I went for lunch at Yaprak, we ate off the Christmas menu the food was delicious and served quickly. The halloumi and sucuc was fabulous and the breaded calamari was amongst the best and most tender that we have tasted. Both the chicken and lamb shish were moist and tender and perfectly cooked. The waitress explained all of the options to us and moved us to a table that wasn’t sitting driectly under the heating vents. The atmosphere was quiet with a low level of background music playing and perfect for a lunch time meal. I would recommend the restaurant to any one.

Having visited Turkey several times I find the food here very authentic! Excellent friendly staff! Good food and drink at a reasonable price. Certainly recommend it. Four of us visit regularly! We normally have the family platter. Very good selection of good quality food.

We take regularly as takeaway from this restaurant, food always kept to high standards. For the first time we came to dine in. Great experience, fantastic staff, very friendly and entertaining. Food was high quality, freshly cooked. We are an Italian, Serbian couple, and this is the only place does not make us regret spending money to eat outside.

Fantastic food, service and atmosphere Took my kids and their partners, and they said best food and service they have ever had. They want to go back again. 10/10

Absolutely brilliant food served by cheerful friendly staff. Not being familiar with some of the items on the menu the three of us went for the "special" for 2-3 persons, it was a fantastic introduction to the cuisine. Can't recommend it highly enough, great value!

Highly recommend, glad I tried this place when visiting Southampton. Beautiful food and quick service

All great. I went as a single person on a busy Friday night. The food was really good and I was made to feel very welcome. Will definitely be going back, with friends, and explore the menu a bit more. Thoroughly recommend it, enjoy!

Moussaka definitely off. Suffered for 3 days!!

An impromptu dinner with the fiancé, they were very busy as it was Friday night but made space for us. We shared a hot platter and mixed shish kebab, very impressed, very tasty, some of the best lamb we’ve had in a long time. Staff were super helpful and fun, throughly recommend, we will be back!

This is the second time my wife and I have been here. The food is amazing and the service is great! Never a bad meal and even the take away for the next day is great!

My wife and I came here for our wedding anniversary meal. The food was excellent and the service just as good. A little pricey but you get what you pay for and thoroughly recommended. Hopefully will visit again in the near future.

Where can I start. This evenings meal exceeded expectations by a country mile. Stunning meals with good presentation. Very big portions can’t wait for our next visit.

1st time visitors, loved it, great atmosphere, friendly staff and food was great 👍

Lunch with a friend here was a great success. The food was delicious, portions generous, prices reasonable and service impeccable. We'll be back!

Very good cocktails and food and great service

Had a lovely birthday lunch here with my bestie. I had the calamari for starters and it was delicious, a larger portion would have been even more perfect, the lamb Shish kebab was melt in the mouth and so tasty my friend enjoyed everything she had too. Will definitely return.

very very nice restaurant 10/10😍

Once again fantastic food! It's clean , it's relaxing , very friendly but not over powering staff. Absolutely love it here. Bonus that it's so local too.🤩 100% recommend it.

They are really wonderful.. A man and his wife receive you as if they were at home. The local food is very delicious. The level of cleanliness is very high.

Outstanding service, excellent food warm and friendly atmosphere. Each dish served was beautifully presented, the meat was full of flavour and really tender. This was my second visit and will be returning again. Top quality and outstanding value for money.

Proper Turkish fayre. Lovely bunch of folk with incredible food.

Friendly service, delicious food and a pleasant atmosphere. I recommend it!

Went here for the first time the other week, wasn't sure what to expect but had seen all the 5* reviews online. The reviews definitely matched our experience. We went for the platter for 2-3 people for £56. This was lovely food and good value for money and was enough between the 2 of us! Staff were lovely and fast service as we went mid week. We will definitely be back and glad this great place is local to us. 🙂

Has a meal at lunchtime and opted for the meal deal. The meal had all sorts of flavours

Had a last minute unplanned lunch during the week and couldn't believe how gd the food was. We can't wait to go back again! Everything was seasoned perfectly

Fantastic food and good vegetarian options

Came here with 3 friends. Ate all the food there was and drank all the booze. We also left with 2 great elephant toys 😄. We shamelessly named them. Great food, great staff and great atmosphere. Highly recommended.

Great atmosphere front of house guy very pleasant! Food is very tasty also!

Great food, lovely atmosphere. The cocktail menu is huge and the cocktail I had was lovely and a decent size!

Right from the moment we entered the restaurant, down to the amazing food and cocktails, Yaprak made our family night out fantastic. Great service by all the staff and incredible food and drinks. The food was fresh, tasty, hot and generous portions and the drinks were perfectly made! Service was perfectly timed, with a brilliant interjection of humour! Thank you to all at Yaprak! We cannot wait to return! 👌

Had an amazing first visit today with you all. The food was incredible and the staff are all really lovely. Thank you so much. We will definitely be back 😊

A Turkish restaurant, food of good quality, mezze very tasty, order ample bread! Staff very attentive, polite and with a smile. Prices fair but worthwhile for to food quality but service which could be quicker. Been told it can get packed later evening so worth a phone to book. Good eating 😋.

The food and cocktail were delicious, friendly staff.. we will be back!

What a gem! Yaprak was recommended to me as The place to go for Turkish food. Went for lunch & had their 2 course deal at a very reasonable £12.95. I could go on about this place - the restaurant looked lovely & the toilets 5 star too.

Food is absolutely gorgeous but massive portions! Drinks are good and the service is exceptional.

Brilliantly brilliant, what a lovely little place and tucked away in the Locks Heath centre! Who would’ve thought it! Highly recommend the cocktails, excellent service

Went tonight the food was absolutely fantastic (we had the meal sharer for 2-3 people) , everything was so flavoursome (can't wait for lunch tomorrow to have the leftovers and my baklava) , great service by friendly staff too.. Thank you so much x
