Read moreA very disappointing experience largely due to an unpleasant wait staff. A small group of us came for a weekday evening booking. Throughout our meal, the waitress (young lady with a high ponytail) was rude and abrupt, kept coming to clear our plates when we were not finished with our food and made us feel quite unwelcome. There were numerous empty tables when we were there, so not sure of the reasons for rushing us.
She cleared our plates and somehow ignored a direct request to place some leftovers into a takeaway box. When she took a specific plate away, she said she would get another box for it but when it hadn’t come out by the end of our meal she said that she had thrown it away. Maybe a case of miscommunication/misunderstanding as English did not seem to be her first language, but her apology seemed very ingenuine and she came across as generally very irritable. She did not bring us the additional water that we requested. She gave us the dessert menu but did not give us a chance to actually have a conversation to decide what to order, standing over us to pressure us.
Generally a bad attitude and too many examples of poor service in one sitting - will put me off visiting again or...
Read moreThis stylish Turkish restaurant hidden amongst the towering skyscrapers in the City of London, Baraka is among the best restaurants near Liverpool Street in my opinion.
The interiors is modern, contemporary and sleek - it's sure to impress you and your friends.
Baraka in Turkish means a wooden hut used for socialising and eating, and Baraka embodies just that. There are long communal tables that's able to host large parties, horseshoe shape booth for more intimate groups and an open kitchen when you can smell the mouth-watering food.
For food, it's incredible, Most meats and skewers are cooked over a charcoal open flame which imparts a lovely smoky flavour. Even the potatoes was next level. It's beautifully presented too so it hits all the senses.
The hospitality is second to none, and if all you want is a drink, there's a lively bar with intimate tables at the front of the restaurant, and an outside terrace that going to be perfect in the summer for some alfresco action.
I can't recommend Baraka highly enough. It's perfect for special occasions and a catch-up with friends over...
