I was extremely disappointed with my experience at the restaurant. I had high hopes for the food.

Lamb Chops: 2/5
They were the worst lamb chops I have ever had in my life, couldn’t even finish the dish.

Mix Shish: 3/5
They were typical mix shish, not good but not bad. They are below the average considering that this is a Turkish grilled food restaurant.

Yoghurt Adana: 5/5
This is the reason for me to give the restaurant a 3/5 instead of a 2/5. This dish was so good, that I would have believed it if they told me that it was from another restaurant nearby. I highly recommend this dish if you are giving the restaurant a shot.

Service: 3/5
When a restaurant charges me a service charge without asking me first, they should provide good service. I was expecting them to at least hold the door for me when I was pushing my child’s push chair! There was no one at the restaurant, there were no excuses for them to offer the least amount of help. Further, a 10% service when there no tissues on any of your tables?

To summarise: 2/5 when I am not considering the Adana. Sadly, I’m not thinking to get it another visit anytime soon

It's been many years where I have thought I have found a gem. But this is it. Up there with the best turkish food I have had in London. Sounds a big claim but I grew up in the Turkish community of green lanes north London. I used to get some sort of turskish food from the age of 12 at least 3 times a week. And as an adult eat turkish food at least once a week.
There are a few dishes I feel I am an expert in
1. Lamuchen
2. Mixed grill platters
3. Baklava
4. Starter dips

Here I had 1,2,4. I have not had a better Lamuchen in London the bread was a combination of soft and crispy and the minced lamb was really well flavoured and a generous amount of lamb mince. You can see by the picture how good visually it looked

The sauces were great. The chilli sauce tasted home made and full of flavour, not just spice. Accompanied by the super fresh bread.

I must admit after the starters I was quite full. Which usually means I will not enjoy the mains as much. But I did the chicken shish on the mixed grill was perfectly charred and really tender whilst being cooked right through. The chicken wings the same. I would say the chicken wings were also the best I have tasted in London.
Then there is the lamb kofta. I usually find that restaurants make this tough and grisly or with too much fat. But here it was perfect melted in the mouth and full of flavour.
The platter also came with bulger rice and lamb and chicken doner. Very different to what I had tasted else where. Hard to put my finger on it, but it tasted full of quality.

I know I sound like a raving fan which is rare as I am a tough customer. Areas for improvement I would say is the garlic sauce and the aubagine dip both could be a bit richer

Overal I would say it is the best turkish restaurant in Central London and joint top in the whole of London. A MUST TRY.

Food was nice and service was friendly if a bit disorganised, however felt overpriced for what it was with effectively kebab and chips for £15, plus service added.

Wraps were slightly more reasonable at around £10. Turkish pizza was good, would recommend as a filling starter.

Atmosphere also could be improved for the prices charged.

Amazing food, this was the first time i have been there. Their food quality was very impressive. We have chosen a mixed kebab platter, food was fresh. Generally I go to green Lane for night out but this place is a jewel. Special thanks to the waitress who served us. She was polite, friendly and very helpful.

Went in with me sis & kids and were seated straight away and given menu’s as well. Very spacious and wasn’t too busy. Was given a few complimentary starter dishes and the mains we ordered was a sharing platter for 4 ppl but we struggled to finish it and we were a table of 5. Flavours and everything was super, we absolutely loved it and portion sizes were great too. Had Turkish tea ☕️ (would be rude not to☺️) and got complimentary sweets to go with it. Staff members were lovely and polite and atmosphere was nice too.

BEST!
Amazing food quality and superb staff!

We had our Anniversary party with our family at their restaurant. The staff was incredibly friendly and the food quality was awesome!

Honestly their menu offers a huge range of food, the price is also quite good according to their food quality.
