    Felt really rushed and under pressure to eat and go if I’m honest… was crammed up next to another table who did not get bothered one during their service. I had hardly any meat on my chicken wings but the peri sauce was amazing and the chicken shish was really good too. Had to ask for our bread before starter and our plates were taken away so we ended up having bread with the starter. Shane as normally gave a good time at this restaurant. ☹️

    I tried this for the first time on Thursday, taking advantage of their fixed price lunch menu. Wow! Delicious food & excellent value for money. Service was faultless and the restaurant itself is beautifully & sumptuously decorated. I’ll definitely be back and I’m already recommending it to my friends as the go-to Turkish restaurant in the area. 10/10 ❤️
