I had a lovely meal with my girlfriend the other night. The mezes were great, but left me little space for the main curse. I had the shepherd’s lamb and it was delicious. Wished I would have stayed on the mezes.The background music was super relaxing and the lighting and everything comfortable. The tables were on the small side. Lovely service, but at times they were busy.

I was kindly invited into this marvellous Turkish restaurant by one of the very lovely owners. So I asked for a mixed selection of Meze for one.. I thought it would be a small plate . I was astounded when a very large plate of the most wonderful food I have ever came. This was enough for three people. Well I must say that I almost finished this brilliant Meze. Was not totally happy when I received the bill.I had two very thirstquenching Turkish beers.I would highly recommend this stupendous restaurant in Beckenham Village.DerekKid-friendliness: There are Highchairs upstairs.

Really good food, lovely setting and friendly service. Thanks to Fardeen for being such a great waiter and all the kitchen for filling us up with delicious food!

I am really surprised to see so many positive reviews about the staff. I recently celebrated the birthday of my friend at this restaurant, and unfortunately, our experience was ruined by the unbelievably passive-aggressive attitude of the staff members. From the moment we walked in, we were met with an unwelcoming attitude that persisted throughout the entire meal.We constantly felt like we were inconveniencing them by being there. When we tried to ask for a vase for flowers, or at least a big glass, we were told, "We don't have vases, and glasses are for cocktails." ?The staff pushed the chair of my friend three times as they passed by. They never offered new drinks and once tried to remove not finished cocktails. In the end, they asked, "What do you want us to do with the rest of the food?" When we replied that we were still eating and chatting, they dropped a box for the food on our table.We left feeling frustrated, vowing never to return to such a toxic environment again. Save yourself the trouble and avoid this restaurant at all costs.

Great food, good service wasn't rushed out after eating even though I felt we overstayed without buying much after food. Nothing bad to say really ??

Really enjoyable food and atmosphere. Great staff and easy to book. The set menu for 2 was a highlight for me. Only thing that could be better would be somewhere to hang coats up.Kid-friendliness: Plenty of space for prams

I love the food.

Tastiest food, served with a smile, and we wasn’t rushed out of here considering we was the last group to leave on a Saturday at 11:30pm. Will most certainly be returning.

Great service and food. My friend and I both had vegetarian moussaka and loved it. There are a lot of choices for vegetarians and vegans so would completely recommend!

If you're in Beckenham and want something other than Italian food, you've got to come here.Food seemed a bit pricey at first, but we got a mixed platter of hot starters and the portions were more than generous.

We went in at a quiet time so can't fully gage the atmosphere however it was very clean and the drinks and food we had were lovely.

My daughter took me here a week ago as a Birthday treat and we had a lovely time. The service was excellent as well as the food. We will definitely go back.
