Came to Oxford for the first time and Antep Kitchen was the first place where I've eaten. Loved the Turkish pizza, the decoration and an amazing service by this super nice waiter Oscar.
Great to see proper Turkish food in Oxford.
Great service, lovely food, complimentary Turkish bread.
Would recommend the share platter 100%.
5 stars are not enough to describe the food, the atmosphere and the service! THE BEST place to go! The service and atmosphere are amazing, the food is probably prepared by God's chefs. Portions are good size(I would say BIG) and you can take away too. We will come back! Highly recommended!!!
Authentic family run Turkish restaurant with great atmosphere and absolutely delicious kebabs and Turkish food. The lamb chops or lamb ribs are a must. Also loved the Turkish sparkling wine. Everything made in house. Busiest restaurant on the street and such a delicious generous meal. Finished with baklava and Turkish tea. Will definitely return when next in town.
Some of the best Turkish food I’ve had! The mixed kebab plate came with a large portion of meat, rice, salad, etc that will fill most people and then some. The food really was pretty great. Service was not friendly and it really seemed like all the staff we interacted with did not want to be there at all, which just made for an unpleasant and uncomfortable dining experience.
Amazing food!
Comes highly recommended.
Presentation is good, Restaurant Is very nice inside.
Service could be a little better.
Limited parking outside.

I would call this place a Turkish fine dine!! From setup & ambiance to food and service! Nestled in Cowley Road, which has many cheaper options and take aways in this cuisine, I was sure a little skeptical (just few bucks higher) going in. But man! I was blown. I immediately realized that I am mistaken and they are a class above and it just switched the tone of our date night a notch up. Had just arrived in Oxford, late..we walked in less than an hour before closing- got great reception! And then the Food!! We got the lamb shank and a mixed kebab plate..it was all out of the world good! The best Turkish kebabs I have had in a really long time! A sish never lies- and the lamb was spot on!! Even the salad on the side with fresh pomegranate was amazing. Excellent house made fresh bread. They make different kinds each day. The shank was beautifully cooked, fall off the bone! Bottomline, if you are in Oxford, don't miss a meal here, especially with the kebabs. We had no room for dessert. Will sure be back for that and many other things from starters!!

Been here at least 4 times in the last couple years and we love the joint. Breakfast, lunch, dinner, always amazing. No complaints about the food or service. The staff have always been top notch and the food is out of this world. We go there for good meat and we always leave satisfied in that regard.
I think it's worth mentioning though, be mindful when you're heading there. Our most recent visit was on a Saturday evening so it was peak hours and very loud and lively.
This was expected and proved to be too much for our 6 year old who expressed discomfort.
This was added on by several birthday highlights that were all brief but very loud. The place felt more like a night club than a restaurant that evening.
We'll be sure to return but I very much doubt it'll be on a weekend evening.
We both had the mixed kebab which on the menu says comes with rice or salad but in actuality, the salad is default and the choices are really rice or fries.
We also ordered a glass of red wine each - Shiraz. We should have specified small glasses because what came were glasses as big as our heads! I certainly didn't need all that drink and the next day I felt like I was on rhino tranquilizers.
Perhaps they can do with a merlot on the menu. Still, love this place.
Excellent Turkish restaurant at Cowley road. We were accommodated quickly at rush hour even without a booking and staff was very kind. Food was very good and served quickly, with waiters giving recommendations on what to order from the menu. Have frequented this restaurant many times and would definitely recommend!
It was a great place to have a meal at the afternoon. My bread and chicken was very delicious, It tasted better when I dipped it with sauce. The salad was great as well. I will be back for more of the bread as they were amazing.
INCREDIBLE 😍
It was our first time having Turkish food and Antep Kitchen did not disappoint!
The atmosphere in the restaurant was amazing as well as it being beautifully decorated. The service was second to none, we didn't wait more than 10 minutes in between courses, and OMG - they were amazing! The meat was tender, the flavors were delicious and the open kitchen is a lovely way to see how the dishes come together.
Thank you for helping us find our LOVE for Turkish cuisine! We would love to visit next time we visit the area!
It was the best decision to choose Antep Kitchen, google reviews were really accurate, they have the highest rating. I’ve lived in Saudi Arabia for 5 years and tried different turkish restaurants/food but theirs was the best. Shish tawook (grilled chicken breast) was very tasty and NOT DRY 😍 chicken wings and lamb ribs i think was the 💣 even the kebab. Their salad was also delicious. The sharing platter is good for 4-5 people. It was really a great experience ambiance is alsy cozy, service was good. This will definitely be our go to turkish restaurant.
