Efes Restaurant & Bar is named after Ephesus, a historical city in the
Aegean Turkey and also from Kazim’s 1st London restaurant which he
opened in 1975. Efes was re-opened in 2021.
Kazim continues to work as a chef, which explains the consistently high
standard of the delicious and authentic taste of Turkey to be found only
at Efes Restaurant
Turkish cuisine is most sensuous by virtue of its earthliness and the
fact that the finest and freshest ingredients are prepared from scratch
on Efes’ premises. To our chefs the real beauty is in the food’s
content and its flavour which comes from thousands of years of
understanding its wants and needs.

    We booked the place and the vibrant atmosphere was exactly as expected. Great food, brilliant value and of course - perfect performance by the dancer. Very lively and worth going.
