The best restaurants serving Turkish food in England

Have been a regular customer for many years. Excellent service , staff very friendly and professional, food always fresh and delicious, high quality drinks. Always amazing whether you eat in or take away. Highly recommended it!

Love restaurant with great staff and great food. A party of 6 had a birthday celebration and we thoroughly enjoyed our experience there.

Not my first and certainly not my last visit to Shayda’s, great food, great restaurant, great staff, without doubt the best in Folkestone

I had a proper dinner with lamb ribs, some cold and hot mezes, a couple of beers. Paid £34 and worths every penny. You can taste the high quality ingrediants when you keep eating.

Exceptionally high service and definitely the best turkish I have had. Overall it was better than any london restaurant I'm used to, even better than those in Stoke Newington, green street - the lot. A lucky find after the cursed theme even in Rayleigh. Chilli sauce was so unique and the meats tender, fresh and flavoursome. Then price was so good too, way less then London prices, and of course I got the credit for choosing the place.l thanks to the reviews before me. Very very clean restaurant, hygenic and really pleasant relaxed atmosphere. I really recommend this restaurant.

A huge disappointment! The food was good but we ended up with an additional £43 on our bill due to our ‘mid-understanding’. We ordered 2 portions of meze starter and 2 portions of main platter but were charged for 2 meze and 4 platters, we feel truly ripped off and will not return.

This was a buffet style place with a very limited range. You could keep returning to the buffet but we really didn't want to because the food was decidedly average. Decor is... odd and the staff were lovely.

Had a family birthday celebration and cant reccomend the food highly enough,something for everyone from the 7 year old to the 68 year old.Only down it does need an update interior wise and outside looked a bit bleak.

Tuvimos la cita de almuerzo más encantadora con un viejo amigo en este maravilloso restaurante gran personal de servicio muy amable nuestra comida estaba caliente servida muy bien fresca y fantástica relación calidad-precio. Este es ahora mi lugar favorito para la comida. 🧿

Our first visit to Iztuzu. We only popped in for a quick coffee, but we quickly decided to stay for a light lunch & we weren't disappointed. Very friendly welcome. Attentive & efficient service throughout. The Turkish coffee was excellent. My wife had asked for a glass of water &, as an example of the level of service provided, two glasses of iced water with lemon wedges were served along with the coffee. The food was delicious. My wife's prawn dish was exceptionally good, complemented with some delicious Turkish flat breads. We felt obliged to share a baklava, which we thoroughly enjoyed. We'll look forward to returning to Iztuzu next time we get to Tynemouth.

Hidden gem, fantastic shawarma and ezme. Great value great service will come again. Coffee strong, first class atmosphere

Excellent. Ibrahim was amazing. We actually planned to visit the next door Indian but didn’t seem as impressive as this restaurant so decided to eat here. Ordered a variety of food. The service was great. Even after paying the bill, we didn’t feel like leaving. Very impressive

Hassan in the man. And also the purveyor of the finest kebabs in all of Oxford, for the last 25 years or more.

Fantastic food, we really enjoyed it. Highly recommended, but you do need to book . Lovely friendly service particularly from Noah .

Not sure if Noa is gone under new management. Took my team (10 people) to this place for lunch. Food portions very small, borderline embarrassing , colleagues had to ask for more rice. Overall not a good experience and unlikely will go again.
