   Service was good lamb was the worst I ever had it was tough and full of fat and I asked for it to be replaced and it was the same. Not what you expect from a Turkish at these prices. They need to find another supplier.

   I recently visited Kara Lounge to celebrate my sister’s 20th birthday, and I couldn’t have been more impressed! Despite the place being incredibly busy, the staff went above and beyond to accommodate us and ensure we had an amazing experience. From the moment we arrived, the service was top-notch—friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. I have to admit, I was a bit skeptical about ordering steak, thinking it might not live up to my expectations, but I was completely blown away. It was hands down the best steak I’ve ever had—cooked to absolute perfection, tender, and packed with flavor. Every bite was a delight! The atmosphere at Kara Lounge was vibrant yet cozy, making it the perfect spot for a special occasion. My sister had an unforgettable birthday, and we all left extremely happy. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for great food, excellent service, and an all-around fantastic dining experience. We’ll definitely be back! This keeps it detailed, personal, and positive while highlighting the key points. Let me know if you’d like any tweaks!

   Kara Lounge and grill is a lovely bustling place and amazing atmosphere! I was a little underwhelmed by the food. I feel as though the accompanying rice (that comes with a lot of the mains) is really bland and the meat, although cooked to a good standard, lacked tasty flavour. I got the lamb shish but will try something else next time. Service and ambience is amazing though and a really good spot for birthdays
