In all honesty, we haven’t actually eaten here (yet!) but wanted to leave a review based on our experience tonight. We walked past this evening with our two children whilst trick or treating. A kind woman (sorry, didn’t catch any names!) beckoned us in from the window and gave our children lollipops and sweets. They were incredibly sweet, interacted with them both and seemed genuinely kind and generous. The atmosphere within the restaurant was lovely and warm- will 100% return as customers!

Great restaurant! Lovely atmosphere, good quality food, very welcoming staff. Grownups and children had a lovely evening. Dessert and Turkish coffee was the cherry on top! We will visit again! Keep up great work!

The food here is amazing! The staff are nice. The service is good. The decor is a bit stiff & formal. It would be more fun if it had a better playlist & some more fun injected into the decor through colour & pattern. The prices are a bit on the steep side & there is not enough choice of Turkish inspired desserts. It’s a pity because I love this place & wish I could visit more often but it’s just too expensive. I’ve been a few times as I live close by but I don’t ever remember seeing any specials that are a great deal. A tasting menu would be a great idea!

Really enjoyable meal with generous proportions. Had starter dips and bread on the house. Friendly and efficient staff. A little pricey but on the whole a pleasant experience and would visit again.

Wow, what a great restaurant. I hadn't realised how big it is. You can only see the takeaway from the road. Just popped in by chance for a bite to eat after work so hadn't booked a table. Megan and staff were very welcoming. Very busy restaurant. Food is lovely and freshly cooked - delicious!! Live entertainment Friday and Saturday. Fantastic place.

The staff were very friendly and helpful. Service was a bit slow and when we asked for dessert we were told they needed the tables in 15 mins. The 2x2 hour sittings isn't working.The food was amazing. We can't wait to go back. Would highly recommend.
