How very very disappointing. Having eaten out at various London Turkish restaurants, I was looking forward to having the same quality of food. From walking in and seeing the decor, I wanted to run away but my friends insisted we just bear it out. The mixed starter cost 7.50 for a small plate of dips. Not worth ordering. We got some awful bread with it like the stuff you use to wash your car with. I asked for warm pitta bread and was told they have none. Ps the menu is now Persian not Turkish . We all ordered various chicken and lamb dishes. The chicken dishes were bland and the lamb was like a bad dry lamb burger. My best advise is to avoid this place. We for sure ain't never going there again unless it's to help close it down
Be prepared for a bit of a wait - but it's worth it as everything is cooked fresh for you. To keep you happy, as soon as you order they bring a dish of olives, some pitta bread (which I've watched them make), and a spicy fresh tomato dip. The only thing is that they are so tempting I eat far too much and then can't finish the main course!
Their hummus is the best I've ever tasted and the special kebab is eye-poppingly large. There is so much on the platter, and it's arranged so invitingly that we try our best but we've always had to give up half way. However, our cats are grateful for any bits we take home for them!
It's a bit cramped, but there's a lovely friendly atmosphere and everyone we've taken there has loved it.

Love Turkish food & was thrilled to come across this little place.
Food was lovely, didn't have to wait long & was reasonably priced.
Will definately be going back, need to try rest of their menu!
Tasted very authentic and quick, pleasant service.
Very reasonable - £23 for 2 starters and 2 mains. Like the fact that you could buy wine at off licence 2 doors down and they didn't charge you corkage.
At the end of the day a nice value meal but nothing to get excited about. Really depends on whether you are a foodie or not.
Had a birthday with 10 friends here and had an amazing time!
The food and service were top notch and they even brought me out a birthday cake.
I would definitely recommend this restaurant to people. Matt, Leeds
