Update - Finally they seem to have caught up and started serving generous portions. To the point that last night's dinner kept me going til halfway through this morning ;-). Well deserved 5 stars - though still hope they will start serving grilled onions in pomegranate sauce (still one of my favourite bits of any "Mangal" meal) with meat dishes and put more effort into other accompaniments/salads - though they always serve complimentary bread, olives and salsa, which is great.
Original review (3 stars) - Food is very good and service is friendly but portion sizes are on the small size compared to other Turkish restaurants. Anywhere else, if I order a mixed grill, I can normally expect a mini-feast: lots of meat, rice and bread and several types of salad - normally either have another meal leftover or, if with friends, we actually just share one between two, or two between three if hungry. At Yasars, for the same price, you get the one plate, decent portion of meat for one, a bit of rice and a bit of mixed salad, grilled tomato and chilly pepper - no grilled onions in pomegranate sauce (my favourite) and no onions with paprika and parsley. Most importantly, definitely no leftover or sharing it! I find it much better value to order take away from other kebab houses...

My recent dining experience at Yasar's Kitchen yesterday was absolutely fantastic! From the moment we walked in, the ambiance was inviting and the aromas were tantalizing. We ordered the meat platter for two, and it was an explosion of flavors. The meat was incredibly soft and succulent, truly the best I've ever had. The donner kebab was fresh and made from high-quality meat, adding to our delightful meal. The salad was remarkably fresh, making it a perfect complement to the rich flavors of the meat dishes. Our only regret was not ordering more!
A special mention to our waitress, Stephanie, who made our dining experience even more enjoyable. Her top-notch customer service and vibrant energy were infectious. She is truly a gem! Thank you, Stephanie, for your amazing service and for making our visit so memorable. Keep shining! 🙏🏾
I highly encourage everyone to try Yasar's Kitchen if you are in the mood for delightful and fulfilling Turkish cuisine. It's so crucial to show our support for local restaurants!
Our regular spot used to be Gokyzu restaurant, but Yasar’s Kitchen has surpassed it in customer service, taste, and high-quality food, offering great value for money. Yasar’s is now our top choice! We will definitely...
Read moreAll round great experience with great food as I treated the family to a meal out on my mums birthday! A old local legend that has grown over the decades to have a restaurant out the back and side of the old kebab shop. Refurbed in recent times to have a lovely ambience and nice/comfortable/trendy furnishings. The foods as good as I remember and the menu has grown. Ordered a variety of starters to supplement the jumbo platter I ordered and the whole family really enjoyed it all. Our designated waiter was so genuinely courteous and polite, a point I highlighted to the owner when he came round to check on us as we left. Our designated waitress was also really polite. The only star I dropped was because the restaurant serves alcohol which I usually prefer to avoid as a Muslim and unfortunately there was a lady on a nearby table who was getting a little loud from being drunk as she drank her beer but fortunately she left not too long after. Also, parking isn’t available on site, you need to park on roads a few hundred yards away. The complimentary baklava and Turkish tea was a lovely touch at the end and really nice too. Thank you to all the team for a great...
