The restaurant itself is in need of a refresh, but friendly staff & great food. I only wish they offered delivery without having to ring & pay cash. It’s quite a dated system & limits availability.

I Love this Turkish restaurant, the food is freshly cooked to order and at a great price. Always welcoming and always full bellies when we leave. This is a great underrated family restaurant. There is plenty of seating, and the available menu is ofter updated serving new products, We had 3 types of soups, oven marinated chicken with rice & possibly the lightest best naan bread I've ever tasted, the Turkish tea is so flavoursome and a must have.

Great food at great prices. The staff are friendly and willing to please. There is no bar which means you can save on the bar bill by taking your own.

We popped in on Christmas Eve expecting a quick, functional meal. Instead, we got an absolutely delicious meal with fresh grilled meat, perfectly cooked rice, and lovely salad. All for a reasonable price, and served by very polite guys. A great find and a surprise. Thank you gents, we'll be back.
