An outstanding place to eat. Excellent food, service and ambience. Lambs liver was superb, as was the Sea Bass. Will be back!!

Noisy. Bland food.

Richard Beevers

Superb quality of food, excellent service and a great atmosphere. Certainly worth a visit if you're in the area.

We've been down from Lincolnshire visiting family who live just outside Southampton and Ottoman Kitchen was suggested as a nice place to eat. It did not disappoint at all ? The food, service and ambience were all excellent and we'd definitely return if visiting the area again. Thank you for a delicious meal ?

One of best places in city to eat. I don't go to many places to eat nice in Southampton but I come back to Ottoman often. Food and smells are just mhmhmh.

1 st time going and I must say very impressed. The starter filled me up and I struggled with the main but everything was cooked to a high standard. The staff were lovely and very attentive. 5*

Very bad service, touching the food with his hand ✋️ and missing salad side etc..unprofessional

A superb restaurant, excellent food and great service. A great find at the end of what would otherwise have been a fruitless trawl around Southampton city centre and a generic meal in a generic restaurant.

The food was amazing, and fresh. It was served to us quickly even though it was busy. The staff were friendly and always on hand to get further food / drinks. There was a great atmosphere and good music.

Overall - not a outstanding as we had hoped for.After hearing various reviews from friends we had to come and try.We booked but when we arrived we were ushered to a seat and I didn't get the chance to say we had booked or for how many.We ordered a couple of drinks, a mojito and an other cocktail.They arrived very quickly.We took our time and decided what to share for starters and what to have as mains.Again. The food came out quickly.The picked cabbage was very nice indeed which was served with the falafel. The falafel was good too.The vine leaves were good too. ( Note that I am saying good. Nothing about it was above average)We were putting the last forkful of starter in our mouths and we were descended on by a vulturous group of waiters who were clearing plates before my fork had even got to my mouth.Come on guys- we all understand that you want as many covers through as you can , but at the expense of good dining etiquette??It was an uncomfortable moment to be honest and I bristled!As quickly as the plates were cleared our main dishes were put down on the table.I was seriously unhappy about being rushed.Two mains were ordered.Mixed shishLamb casserole.The mixed shish came as four cubes of chicken and four cubes of lamb, with rice on the plate and a side salad.In all seriousness - are you really charging this price for overcooked chicken breast and lamb of which one cube was more chewy ( sinue ) than it should be and an average bowl of salad.If there is not much volume, then you really need to ensure the quality of the butchering.Now, we didn't come here with the expectation of fast food. We were expecting the service and the food and drink to match the grand decor! It fell very short.We expected fresh cocktails made well and fresh food served at a restaurant pace with good quality service.Overall poor valueHurried serviceLow quality cheffing.Some nice flavours and potential.

OK food but pricey for what it was.
