What not to like at this place? The first thing is waiter’s manners and behaviours. Staff are very kind and helpful. Check up on you while you have your food while they give your own privacy too. They are very very polite and professionally give you the best service.
The atmosphere is very family friendly. Suitable for every occasion from your formal work dinner to group party. The vibe is very warm and fluent inside this place. The restaurant hygiene is very high and this is a very clean place. You can see the kitchen through the window and even in the kitchen us everything done by a good order and clean.
When it comes to food, there is a whole lot of heaven you can experience. Kebabs are very good and juicy. Fresh ingredients with lots of colour and varieties. Very aromatic and tasteful. We order the hot and cold mezze platter for the starter and it came in a very good portion. I can tell that after, we were already full and even not looking forward to the dinner but the dinner menu is exciting enough for you to order from. The selection of the mezze platter is very colourful along with the tastes. They make a homemade bread and garnish with oil and I guess Zaatar spice ( I am not very sure). The bread comes with starter and I cant say more about how wonderful it tastes.
For the main course we order the house platter contained Lamb Adana, lamb Cube( lamb Shish), Chicken cube (Chixken Shish) Chicken beyti and Wings. The lamb Shish was very tender and juicy and I can say this was the first time ever I tried Shish with that tenderness and taste. Chicken Beyti was quite dry but delicious too. Wings were very tender and the marinate was very good.
I always order Ali Nazik when I go to any Turkish restaurant and I love the dish. This dish in here is next level of goodness. The lamb is very tender. The yogurt and aubergine bed ha a warm temperature and everything together is amazing. I highly recommend this dish.
We tried the Adana Iskender too, as dishes with yogurt are always good. The kebab itself was quite dry but the combination was juicy and delicious. Again the signature bread makes all the difference in this dish. Mains come with rice, bulgur and Salad.
I loved the presentation of every dish and the sweet/sour taste of the salad sauce.
For the dessert we tried housemade Baklava, which was very goooooood. It comes with Vanilla ice cream. Also Sutlac was very good and tasty too. To be honest ut was quite average in taste and I tried better ones before but it is good.
They serve Turkish tea and coffee and I tried both and this is amazingly good after the heavy dinner.
They also have the option for book the while restaurant for large group and catering too. I highly recommend this place if you go to Brighton or live in...
Read moreMy friend and I came here on our first visit to Brighton & Hove and words cannot describe how impressed we were, not only with the service AND food, but also the customer care! I have severe food allergies and Kem and the team were incredibly attentive! This is so rare to experience in restaurants where often the hustle and bustle of the busy environment can make you feel as if you are being a nuisance with special requirements so you don’t really get to eat out much! However, I was made to feel so at ease here and really looked after! Kem and the chefs checked the ingredients with me at every stage of cooking, and really exhausted every option to ensure I had a SAFE and still VERY delicious meal. The chef made me an allergen friendly meal of lamb ribs, new potatoes and broccoli which was delicious. I would highly recommend the ribs! They were so juicy, tender and flavourful! Additionally, the vibe of the restaurant is very warm and inviting! Just an overall wonderful experience, in a lovely family run place! Not to mention, you get so much food, you have enough to take home and have an entire meal the next day! Thank you Kem, I am so grateful for your service and food, and we will absolutely be back when we are next in Brighton & Hove! I dream about those ribs! Would highly recommend this restaurant if you are someone who suffers from food allergies or intolerances, and if you don’t, well even better :)! Great food, great drinks, prices very reasonable for the quality and amount of food! Just wonderful. Made our trip all the more...
Read moreWhen your friends say this place you need to try, they weren't exgeratting! The moment we walked through the door we was greeted, shown our table. Swiftly served out starters which were really tasty. The Sucuk was lovely chargrilled! The mains were amazing. The lamb shish literally melted in the mouth and just vanished... To my stomach! Very good place if you like to share your plate with whom you're present with. Dessert was so tasty. It was so refreshing to have such a really well cooked and presentable meal. Highly recommend you will NOT be disappointed!!
Next visit Had a fantastic birthday meal here! The food was absolutely brilliant.. we ordered loads of starters and honestly didn’t even need a main between the two of us, but we couldn’t resist trying the lamb ribs, which were so succulent and tasty. Everything was beautifully presented and packed with flavour.. from the fresh salads and dips to the grilled meats and sides.
The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, and the staff were friendly and attentive throughout. The birthday dessert was a lovely surprise.. pistachio ice cream with “Happy Birthday” written in chocolate made it feel extra special and a sing along 😀
Highly recommend this place for amazing food, great service, and a relaxed dining experience. Definitely coming back!
I must say the shot was very daring based on...
