Lovely restaurant in main street of Selby. Table booked for 7.30pm, however, restaurant extremely quiet therefore could have just walked in. Currently cash only for payments, not an issue as we were advised that on booking and again when arriving at the restaurant. Not all wines listed on menu available but still able to get something nice. All 4 starters and mains were delicious. Service from staff fantastic. Only the lack of customers let the place down as impacted atmosphere so I'd recommend going there & filling the place up!!

My first visit, what a wonderful little hidden gem this Family run newly opened Turkish Restaurant is. The food was fantastic, service great and decor nice. All the food was freshly made, they had bottled Efes Lager which was very much appreciated. Prices are good, we had 3 courses but shared a main and two drinks total and it was £75.

Lovely food, friendly staff but they seemed to be overwhelmed at what was a busy time. Some customers had been waiting a long time for food and even to order, which was a shame because the food was very good. The young staff seemed to need direction, which wasn't very evident. Once that is sorted, I'm sure things will improve.

Delicious food, friendly service, generous portions. Large selection of vegetarian dishes available. We did have to wait for the bill for a bit, but it was fine. I’d visit again.

Really nice restaurant with a good atmosphere Was really impressed with food and presentation was good ! staff were very helpful couldn't do enough for us. The chef even made me a lovely cheesecake from scratch to take home with me .😍😁 I would say tho if you like your mash potato smooth there's is a little lumpy but still tastes nice ! I would definitely recommend this restaurants family and friends and can't wait to go back and try something else off the menu. Definitely tip the staff they deserve it for what they do. best service I've ever had in any restaurant!

I don't give 5 stars easily, but this restaurant does stand out. We went in a group of 7 on a Saturday, which we booked a couple of weeks before. The group included children, so we did check the up to date menu on their website before. The ambience of the restaurant is relaxing and service is very good, with staff subtly checking we were happy all the way through the meal. The menu is not too broad, but provides a good choice and there was a main course special available. The food on each course was served quickly and was really tasty. The pricing was fair for such a nice meal and we will definitely be back again soon.
