This isn’t the first time we have been, but one of many. Can honestly say this is the best restaurant we go to, the food is always like the first time we ate there. The staff are amazing and friendly and the food is fantastic value for money

The best Turkish restaurant around! We had two mains, the food was delicious and the service was amazing. The mains come with bread, salad, rice and 4 dips. Great value for money and we had a fabulous evening.

Meeting up with my wife friend for a catch up and some dinner, had been told about this restaurant and how good it was by a few people , plus it was close to our friend place so not far for her to travel so decided to give it a try. What a love time we had staff very friendly , services was very good, We had the cold mazes platter for two to share between three of us so much food , me and my wife friend had lamb shish for main course it was lovely , and my wife have the veg falafel ( she had to have a doggy bag to much) nice selections of wine and good prices for today's market Total for all three of us including 2 bottles of wine £119.00. We go out to lots of different restaurants thought the year and most our regular to us and we have a nice time. However when we try somewhere new and it is this good i like to leave a review to the staff and owners of Anteplie restaurant thanks for a lovely evening and great food dont change a thing see you soon Chris & Tracy

Antepli was our favourite until only recently we experienced a very poor, arrogant and unprofessional customer service. The online system did not process our booking reservation for 2 for later this month, so we phoned the restaurant and tried booking over the phone. Everything was ok until we requested for an email confirmation of our booking. The senior male staff member who was assisting said it’s booked but said the email confirmation can happen only booking via online. I explained the online system was not going through after we tried a couple of times, and asked if we can still have a confirmation emailed to us. However this man immediately ignored us and very rudely told us to look somewhere else after only requesting for an email confirmation. We have never expected and experienced this kind of unprofessional and appalling customer service anywhere else in this country. We are never coming back here again, very disappointed with the very disrespectful and disgusting attitude and behaviour. No joke guys. Shame on Antepli for ruining this for yourselves.

Although no complaints were present regarding the food, there were unfortunately many with the service aspects of the restaurant. This was a Birthday dinner and we were shocked to have the owner force our large group out of the restaurant stating that we only had 1 hour to leave from the moment we came and that he "has a business" and "needs to make money" These comments were received from the first hour that we were in the restaurant and resulted in the owner attempting to cram our group together by removing a table in order to maximize profits. this was especially frustrating considering one of the individuals at the table was in a wheelchair meaning they had limited motion in the cramped conditions with terrible hospitality on her birthday. Although this was not the most enjoyable experience, it has occurred more than one time in the past (which we tried to ignore). After this visit, we will not be returning.

Just back from Turkey and wanted that authentic experience. Ambience and decor is great. Service speedy and the food incredible. Try the mixed grill with meze as you won’t be disappointed. An English sunset with great service and company to match. DO NOT miss out

Great meal. Lots to choose from. Salad and breads with dips for the table. I ordered liver, wonderful dish. Nice staff, efficient as well. Clean. Alcohol available. Lots of Turkish people eat here so that's a reccomendation in itself.

We took family here for dinner. The food is simply gorgeous and there’s plenty of it! Healthy, tasty and flavoursome and unlike other restaurants, we all came out feeling full without feeling ripped off money wise. The chicken kebabs are awesome and the chilli sauce..to die for. We will be back!

Excellent food. All the dishes(vegetarian)that we tried were just delicious. Pudding in the desert is a bonus!! Worth visiting.

Visited after a recommendation with 2 friends. We ordered drinks & were served with some Turkish bread, salad & dipping sauces which was very nice. To start with we ordered some kofte, sucuk & Kalamar. All very nice. For mains we had chicken shish, lamb shish & lamb chops. Food was very tasty & delicious. Service was excellent. We were served, ate & finished in just over 1 hour but it wasn't rushed just very good service. Highly recommend this place.
