Had a delicious meal here on Mother's day. The food was delicious and reasonably priced, all fresh ingredients used. The staff were so friendly and attentive and couldn't do enough for us. Thank you for making my special day even more special. We will definitely be back.

The service was horrendous, the worst I have ever experienced. The owner I presume he was the chef, the meal was nice. The service staff are beyond training, he should replace his front of house staff. Giving one star for the service is too much of a compliment, they were totally and utterly hopeless. And my bill was over £240.

Food was lovely , the chef is talented and clean plates all roundService was pretty poor , 2 hours till they finally took plates away , missed desert orders from kids , 1 drink each never got offered a second , took over an hour to get starters and with kids that’s a long wait

We had a GREAT evening at Neil’s Turkish night. The entertainment was really good and the food superb.

We were the only ones in there. The service was very slow. The scallops in the special weren't fresh, ie, they tasted of fish. My lamb shank was nearly cold. The food was well presented though but we won't go

What a wonderful restaurant. Food and service were great. Lovely menu choice, together with specials made for excellent options and something for everyone. Nothing was too much trouble, and the chef/owner was very proactive and informative. We went on a Saturday evening and sadly it was not as busy as it deserves to be. We were a table of 7 and none of us had any complaints and we talked about our food all the home. It was so good. The restaurant is not situated in the easiest of locations in terms of parking, however there is a lay by outside, and a public carpark behind Hockley library which is free in the evenings, after 1pm on Saturdays and all day Sunday. It really is a fabulous restaurant - give it a go.

I’ve driven by this restaurant countless times but never realised what a fantastic little place it is. Warm welcome from the start. Staff spoke about the menu with such passion. A really varied choice - something for everyone in our party of 7. I didn’t have a starter, but others in my party did. The garlic chilli prawns seemed to be a particular hit. For mains I had a halloumi salad with avocado and bacon. Delicious, fresh, great quality. Lots of choice for desserts too. Unfortunately I had eaten out at lunchtime as well, and so just couldn’t manage a pudding, but the ones that arrived for others on our table looked amazing. I really wish I had arrived hungrier so that I could do the menu justice! Service was relaxed but efficient, food arrived quickly enough, drinks were decent and not massively overpriced. All in all, I’d definitely recommend this little place. Will come back in an empty stomach next time!

Was told to be quiet as there were other diners in there (4 people). A friend had chicken kebabs which were raw, when spoke to chef he immediately went on the defence saying they were cooked, he didn't listen to his customer. I waited a good 10mins for my food to come out after everyone else's, we all waited for over a hour for food. I had to go to the bar to get drinks, instead of someone coming and taking a drinks order. And then a service charge was put on the bill, we refused to pay this.
