Sariyer Balik London — Restaurant in London

It is with great pleasure that I present to you a detailed review of my recent dining experience at Sariyer Balik London.

Upon entering the premises, I was immediately struck by the elegant and refined ambiance that permeated the establishment. The tasteful decor, with its subtle nautical undertones, created an atmosphere of sophistication and tranquility. The attentive and courteous staff promptly greeted me and guided me to my table, ensuring that my comfort was of the utmost importance.

The menu, which boasted an impressive array of seafood delicacies, left me spoilt for choice. The presentation of the dishes was nothing short of exquisite, with the vibrant hues of the bisque perfectly complementing the delicate garnish. For the hot starters I chose the calamari and prawns. The first spoonful revealed a harmonious blend of flavors, as the rich and velvety texture of the bisque danced on my palate, leaving a lingering, yet pleasant, aftertaste.

For the main course, I selected the sea bass, a dish that promised to showcase the restaurant's expertise in preparing seafood. The sea bass, cooked to perfection, was tender and flaky, with a subtle smoky flavor that was enhanced by the accompanying tomato sauce. The dish was accompanied by a medley of seasonal vegetables, which provided a refreshing and well-balanced accompaniment to the star of the plate.

In summary, my visit to this seafood restaurant was an absolute pleasure. The impeccable service, refined ambiance, and exceptional culinary offerings all contributed to a truly memorable dining experience. I wholeheartedly recommend this establishment to any discerning seafood enthusiast seeking an elevated and refined...

We were there for a cousin's surprise birthday. The evening started well enough. We had an area downstairs where we could play our own music. The waitress was great managing just over 20 people. She took our orders down and wrote our names next to them. Our starters came and most of it was okay. The prawns were overcooked, hummus was nice and they gave us various dips to try they were okay. What happened next was a disaster. We didn't get our main courses until close to 10pm . They didn't have enough seabass but only told us when they started to serve the mains. My tuna fillet was cold. I asked for boiled potatoes and they came out cold. Others complained theirs were inadequate. Cold food, incomplete plates, plates missing. Luckily the birthday girl shared salmon fro somebody else. Thankfully the birthday girl was so happy with everything else she was past caring! I don't know how the waitress managed to do her job. The problem was, with the kitchen. They never told her what was left but she didn't realise that she had not brought down all the food orders. We had a few at time without the food. But avoid at all costs. Food shocking. Menu is not great very limited. Goodish service for a hectic waitress. Wine choice is boring and uninspiring. No dessert menu ( we did have birthday cake! ) though. We enjoyed it with music we played. Don't ever visit there. They have a lot to learn about running a restaurant well. They will lose more customers if they carry on like this. This is 1 of the worst places I've eaten in and I'm definitely not returning. It needs a good clearout and refurbishment and enough food especially when you know you have a large...

At first glance it has a very authentic decoration, tiny but cosy ambient. There is a reasonable seafood menu, with acceptable prices too. Cold and hot starters were very delicious, but can't say the same for the main course. The fish I had was not very well executed. Far too salty, overly fried dry. Apparently their pos machine was down, had to pay cash only. I kindly asked for the receipt and the staff start arguing and shouting each other. The waiter told me the chip and pin is not working, they can't provide the receipt. Kindly mentioned they have to have a working till, chip and pin is just for card transactions. The guy got aggressive and intimidatingly asked me if I am looking for trouble. I asked lastly how they claim their TAX without printing the receipts? That's when he starts closing the distances and faces me during the pandemic without a mask. I left the premises immediately to avoid any unwanted fights. Sadly excessive aggression for a business which is trading over 18 years. I was speaking so calmly and never lost my temper, did not deserve to confronting that rudeness and reckless behaviour after a...
