We were planning to go to a Turkish restaurant and based on reviews and impression we selected Antepliler and boy it was an excellent choice. I always wanted to try Cig köfte, which is basically raw spicy minced meat. It tasted fantastic and I really enjoyed every bite. I also tried the lentil soup and it was prepared authentically. The Pide was good but not very special. I akso ordered on of the special dishes of the house, the lamb ribs. The meat was tender, juicy and cooked to perfection. Friends tried the adana kebab and they told me it was good. For desert I had delicious kunefe.
I’d say that it’s worth it to visit this restaurant and try some authentic delicious turkish food.
Had a great experience at antepliler! Trying Turkish food for the first time � exciting and tasty dishes... Special mention for the Kunefe, decadent, yummy dessert!
Very attentive service, I highly recommend the place!
Came here the other night for dinner, we were seated quite quickly, service was prompt and staff were polite and accomodating. I ordered the Adana kebab and it was beautifully cooked and taested delicious.
Serving dishes steeped in history and rich in flavour, Antepliler offers a taste of the cuisine of Gaziantep, with its incredible diversity and fresh ingredients. . Ahmet Ustunsurmeli from Gaziantep, set up a bakery in 1993, making the first authentic baklava in London, before opening the restaurant Antepliler in Green Lanes (‘Little Turkey’), in 2003.
so I’ve seen a few interesting dishes on instagram lately … like a boat shape pizza or a sweet dessert with melted cheese in the middle 🤔 so after a quick research it turned out being turkish dishes respectively called PIDE ( boat shape pizza ) and KUNEFE ( cheese dessert) … also turns out theres not many places in London you can get both at the same time !
I had a Turkish colleague visiting for work and asked us if we wanted really good Turkish food. We ended up at this place, this is the best Turkish food I have ever had. On top of it, it is cheap. The owner was very friendly and waived the cost of desserts for us. I would recommend spinach and cheese kofte, falafel and pide. They also have yeni raki which is also known as lion's milk 😃 It tastes like fennel, is clean but turns cloudy when you add water and has a lot of alcohol. To finish off, Have a baklava followed by Turkish coffee. Can't wait to go back again.
Very good kebap shop in north London.. Kebaps are very delicious and well-cooked..Especially lahmacun (a kind of Turkish pizza, made from mince, spicies and onion) must be tried... Ayran (mix of water and yogurt) is very original drink.. You should taste!! Staff is good and service fast..

It's 1 hour away from where I live, but still worth it. A no-frills laidback Turkish restaurant in the Northern suburb of Harringay, or Little Istanbul. If you are going to have 1 Lahmacun in your life, it better be here. I have tried it in Turkey, Syria and Lebanon, and none come as close to Antepliler. The garlic version with the very pink lamb meat is my favourite. We ordered a mixed meze which was alright but nothing outstanding. Next came the Sogan Kabab; large kofta chunks drenched in a tangy pomegranate concentrate, magically magnifying the fatty elements of the meat. The caramelised baby onions make the perfect side. The nice waitress agreed to bring us 1 plate of doner kabab from their sister Doner restaurant. Was fine though surprised it was beef and not lamb. Finally came the kabab mix; a rich plate of barbequed chicken wings, sheesh taouk, lamb cubes, kabab and lamb chops. I've always preferred Turkish and Persian kababs over Arabic ones; they're bigger, juicier and more flavorful with the chili and spice-infused marinations. The wings were one of the best I have ever had; juicy meat with crispy skin leaving just the right barbequey aftertaste. The sheesh taouk was ok along with the lamb cubes and chops. The kababs were full-bodied and though saltier than usual, were amazingly delicious. Finished off with a nice glass of Turkish tea and a Kunefe which was OK. If you're willing to go the extra 5.3 miles from central London, and enjoy a laidback yet loud Anatolian atmosphere, and have a love for pink glorious lamb, then this is your place. Around £25 a person - Final Verdict : 8/10

As I said before in my review of Yasar Halim, I really like the Turkish culture in Green Lanes and go back again and again. So far Pam and I have not yet run out of new Turkish places to try. Admittedly we get closer and closer to the two Harringay stations, as we normally stick to one side of the road. We will go back up the other side next year.
It can be quite difficult choosing a restaurant on Green Lane, there are so many offering Turkish cuisine. Antepliler is a safe bet. With a relaxed ambience and excellently grilled meats, it will satisfy your craving for a kebab. The adana kebab is quite spicy, the chicken tender and the pides are well stuffed. The kunafa however, is too sweet and flat. Service was great.

We placed ourselves in the hands of our fabulous waiter with the instructions that we wanted to taste and learn about proper Turkish food. The dshes we were served were fabulous. The spicing was intelligent, the grease levels were low, and the flavours sh
I have rarely been to a Turkish restaurant that doesn't overcook their meat, it's not the case here. The skewers were juicy and had the perfect amount of chew. I definitely recommend the adana kebab! It was so so good!
Love a good small cup of Turkish tea and crunchy Kunefe! What a better place than Antepliler (Green Lanes) quick, clean and efficient. Take my advice Highly recommended if you haven’t been already.
Lovely food and in a nice setting! Had a very decent small meal with my fammo here today! Excellent service too. No doner on the menu BUT they still got us one! And man it was tasty!! Highly recommend a visit! 🏆🙌🏽
Fantastic way to enjoy Turkish food, probably the only one who actually make fresh kunafeh on the spot
Delicious food
Most visit on the sweet shop next door!
Nice ambience, attentive staff and amazing Kuneffe.
Only critic the portion size for the small chicken Shiah are really small as can be seen from the picture, £13 for 5 pieces of chicken feels a bit steep.
The Kuneffe was absolutely great, the restaurant is big and they have dedicated shops for Baclava, Kuneffe so they are definitely doing something right.
Great staff! Great tasty and price! It was just awesome. Thank you
Lahmacun was good. We ordered hummus with lamb. The hummus itself was good but the lamb wasn’t. Sausages were fine. I regretted ordering aubergine yogurt as it tasted just like the cucumber yogurt they serve for free. Kebab with bread, herbs, tomato sauce and butter burgle and yogurt was a really delicious dish. Turkish tea was good. The kunafa was amazing. Good staff, medium-high prices.
airy, roomy and welcoming decor then the amazing food tells you this is going to be your regular place. varied and extensive menu. fresh jngredients. delicious meat cooked to order and served hot. insanely cheap.
Good restaurant to enjoy authentic Turkish food. With many Turkish restaurants placed next to each other in the area Antepliler shines out of its competitors just for their deserts. The very best kunefe and Baklava you will probably find in London… (my wife is Turkish so I know what I am talking about…) The food is fresh and tasty. The prices seems to have gone up but I suppose that it’s is happening everywhere. I have to admit that I am not a fan of the layout of the restaurant’s tables. Not beautiful as a restaurant but defiantly the most intelligent way to place tables to make the most of it.
You will find authentic Turkish food here 😋 Staff is courteous and service is quick. Though I believe food is a bit on costlier side. That said, they also have an attached desserts shop and they offer one of the most delicious Turkish desserts here, a must try!!
