The food was delicious, lunch time menu had a good selection to choose from. Service was spot on. All the staff where very friendly, polite and helpful. Very stylish and comfortable surroundings. Very clean, toilets spotlessly clean. Highly recommend. And will most definitely be returning there myself..

I booked the long room for a 50th birthday dinner and it was amazing. The food, service and ambience was 10/10. I would highly recommend for a private function!

This place is ok, charges similar to some of the better Turkish restaurants but does NOT deliver when it comes to food.Had a chicken burger that was simply a chicken breast with some butter on it. Food was burnt and then turned over to make it servable.

Nice cozy restaurant!Polite staff!Food tasted so good!The only donwside part is that is overpriced comparing with other Turkish restaurants and portion side is not included de pitta bread.I have ordered mix shish and came in with only 1 salad in a small bowl and 3 small sides(sauces) -despite of being 5 at the table :( Also the cost of the beer is 6.5 £ -a bit exaggerated :)I do enjoy Turkish food but this place disappointed me I am afraid!However was not very crowded on Sunday evening,only 3 table so we had intimate atmosphere!

Unfortunately, we experienced a very disappointing evening and terrible customer service at this restaurant for my Husbands 30th Birthday in the Private Dining Room. Drunk strangers kept entering the room trying to cause trouble with our party – staff failed to remove them / keep them away. They continued to cause trouble in the bar area with another family when we were trying to settle our bills. This resulted in the staff leaving the bar and management having to call the police as there is zero security in place. The policy on the website clearly states “Management reserve the right to refuse entry to any person or remove any person who in their opinion is causing a nuisance or disruption to other diners.” and yet they failed to adhere to their own policy. We had to physically shut ourselves in the Private Dining room whilst these people were removed from the bar because we were all so concerned how things could escalate, we had 4 pregnant women in our party, myself being 31 weeks pregnant. This made me feel extremely anxious and on edge.We had a minimum spend to have the room for the whole evening which we not only met but exceeded by a great deal. Only to find our evening being ruined and cut short as we had to leave when they closed early because of the trouble caused by others. I said to the manager how upset we were about this as it is my husbands 30th and people had travelled far to celebrate, he simply replied, “well it isn’t my fault”. I have emailed the restaurant direct to complain and hoped they would rectify the situation by refunding some of the bill due to the inconvenience caused, they failed to answer any of my questions regarding why their own policies were not adhered to and why they do not have security in place. The restaurant themselves have stated 'the festive season does mean that some people do not act sensibly or rationally' - well they should have staff that are capable of dealing with this or employ security to do so. I was offered a voucher to attend the restaurant another time, which I kindly declined as we do not feel comfortable or want to return to the restaurant and the amount doesn't even cover the cost we paid for our meal. Since I replied to this email mid December they have ignored me ever since. Awful customer service! My advise is don't bother, go elsewhere where your custom will be appreciated.

The restaurant is beautiful but the food is over priced and not very good. I had real concerns about the prawns so decided not to eat them - I usually devour prawns!

First time here for Christmas party from work.Really nice place, beautiful festive decor, lovely atmosphere.My colleagues enjoyed the cocktails especially the daiquiri and martinis. They where also impressed by the tequila shots and great baklava- Turkish dessert. They ate lots of shish and meats that seemed very nice and smelled yummy as we're grilled.Personally I enjoyed my vegan humus starter which had delicious grilled peppers and the Fat turk ratatouille - grilled vegetables with delicious dressing. Also the vegan dessert with Swiss vegan chocolate and raspberries sorbet and fresh strawberries was perfect.We all had a wonderful time and great party. Next time I will come with my family or friends.
